[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION], when is the app coming?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] notbrodie:
i've been getting some awful standby drain on CM with v1.02. I'm talking 95% -> 55% over 8 hours. WiFi on, freshly rebooted. the only thing in the battery stat is Android OS, Cell Standby, and WiFi. I decided to try out Chaos and went back to the type of drain I was accustomed to (1% over 2 hours).

I'm assuming this has something to do with CM using CAF and elex using plain AOSP with just enough CAF updates to make it work...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GtrCraft:
That reason sounds just bad. There is probably a wakelock, has nothing to do with the kernel. Use betterbatterystats to find out
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] and313:
If i overclock am i able to see the new freqs in cpu spy or any other cpu app? It just scales to the default freq but i set all cores to 6 in config file

I dont use a kernel app but i had it installed... Deleted it a couple days ago
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] szucsgf:
Yes you should be able to see the overclock frequencies in those apps. You need to reboot after changing the config file.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] and313:
Yeah i did... Maybe a rom problem? (Slimkat)

Ok works... Flashed again
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
As said, troubleshoot the battery issue. Its not the ROM or kernel.

See battery help thread in my signature. And read the first 3 posts before anything else. ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akash3656:
Another ROM close to stock but with a lot of speed enchantments is velocity.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] notbrodie:
According to BBS, there are no significant partial wakelocks, which means it isn't an app or rom issue.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
But....when no one else is reporting it...its not a kernel issue either. :)

And there's more to battery issues than partial wake locks. Much more. ?

---------- Post added at 11:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 AM ----------

Gsam is much simpler....and sometimes simple can work better. And Gsam root companion.

There's held awake, times held awake, apps, location based issues (most common issue), poor signal, etc....etc.

But, maybe the kernel has issues for you I guess...not all devices are equal. ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Do u flash nightlys day after day ? Maybe its just time for a full wipe. It could be the kernel causing your issue but because of something gummed up within ROM
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rhamej:
Omg. This ROM is perfect.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] notbrodie:
nope. i flash once a week, and I normally do a clean flash.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
you're not using that new radio are you? What is it 4.4.4r2 I think
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] notbrodie:
yeah, but here's the thing: using chaos, drain is completely normal. the only change i made was flashing between the two kernels. just to ensure that it wasn't a transient issue, i gave elex a couple different nights where i left it off the charger. every time, i got this 5%/hr drain.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Maybe Elementalx is "missing" something from recent CAF ? I think I would go back to 4.4.4r1 radio and see what happens , maybe u found a issue [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] can repair when he gets back .
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] notbrodie:
that's what i was thinking. CM is constantly adding things. Maybe there's something that changed that elex hasn't accounted for. it's not a huge deal. i'm sure when flar2 comes back, he'll whip it back into shape.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] magnamentis:
interesting ?

don't know if that's helpful but i have every nightly installed with perhaps 2 or 3 exeptions in the last 6 months and i have always the latest elementalX installed as well and my devices uses 1-2% in 9-10 hours idle, so what i'm saying is that if it would be a kernel or rom problem this would not be possible. mostly it's radio and/or location related if things go bunkers that way, but mostly does not mean always, so i'm not

assuming, just trying to give info and a resume of how things usually have been in the past.

good luck while finding the culprit and it's well possible that a userspace element works better with one kernel than with another while it remains

a userspace element to be the cause if all or most other users don't have the same issue.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] schizophrenia:
time to try the famous Elemental X kernel...

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bariz143:
Do we have PA users here? :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bland.life:
Strange, its only 1%-2% drain for me when I leave the phone overnight (6-7hrs) off charger with airplane mode on.

EX kernel or CM stock kernel, for both I usually still have 98% to 100% when I wake up in the morning.

There were days where Google+ or Play Services go crazy with the network connection and that really drains the battery.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DanielQQ:
I' m one, using the 4.5 Alpha 2
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bariz143:
Nice :)

Do you have any battery improvement with ex vs stock pa kernel? :)

Cheers
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DanielQQ:
I don't know, i never used the Stock Kernel.

Before Ex i used Franco Kernel, and i must say Ex is the better choice for me, with my setup its smoother and battery is still the same.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] donnabelmartie:
Mine's drains fast about 5℅ an hour. Perhaps due to dt2w and dt2s from rom. But I like how my phone doesn't go hot too much anymore, but really hoping for a new update soon (aosp)...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akash3656:
Disable d2tw then you'll see less or no battery drain on idle.

Or set a timeout alternatively.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AhmedFaiz:
This is my bye bye note as I was lucky to get hold of a one plus one and I am very impressed with the killer device. It's been a nice journey with nexus 5 + PA +ElementalX = fuild user experience ?. It's time to move on.

Thanks a lot [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]. Hope you are planning to get the device and start the kernel development for one plus one too.! Learned a lot from this thread ☺. This is best thread in the whole n5 section. Nice to read and clean. Hope to use your kernel soon for one plus one. ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:

don't worry, exceptions are well known to prove the rules true :)

i fully agree with your judgement of the device. best i've ever seen and looks georgeous as well.

however i'll keep my nexus 5 till next nexus hits the market of course, the device which has to jump

ship soon is the note 2. it's simply not enough developer friendly for me, due to it's innards, mostly due

to the exynos chipset which makes it a hassle for smaller devs to get things running in a reasonable manner.

also agree with your statement about this thread, "sauf exceptions"

Hmm. Wanted to protect the power button that's why I'm using it. When airplane mode is on, only 2% drain per hour. Just hoping for better battery performance but still stable other features in the next update for this great kernel..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
Its a catch 22. Lol. Without the timeout set....battery is brutal. With the timeout...you have to hit power anyway. ;)

---------- Post added at 07:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 PM ----------

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] donnabelmartie:
Haha yes. But I guess it still is. With wifi on and data, I can get up to 9hrs battery life with 3.5hrs screen time, with dt2w and dt2s always enabled ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NovaSlim:
Yeah, for Nexus 6 I would be fine if Google just ships an unlocked LG G2 running AOSP, the only hardware needing big improvement on the N5 is the Battery anyway.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fajarlazuarding:

Hi All,

I adb shell to the phone, run su. After that whoami said that I was root, but I was still unable to save in vi /etc/elementalx.conf (vi said that file was read-only but I saw this:

root@hammerhead:/ # ls -l /etc/elementalx.conf

Does anybody know what is wrong here?

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dechronic:
Only ones I know of is CM (obviously) and PAC MAN ROMs.

Beanstalk 4.4.4010 is a little weird as it seems to work with AOSP and CM kernels sometimes. For example, I can use either version of your kernel with it although it is supposed to be based on CM and AOKP.

I am not sure what you promised in terms of updates but it seems like there is an update to F2FS for large disc support. I have seen a guy on another forum trying to get his 64GB HC otg USB stick to be read when formatted as exFAT.

Edit: Some others may like color profile options by selecting preset gamma setting to have cooler or warmer or bluer colors, etc. via the Aroma installer.

the app please

never been sticking to a kernel that long because it's the only one which just works without hickups

for many months, while others come up with minor or greater issues from time to time.

that said, the only thing i'm missing ist a kernel specific app. it even kept me from using the kernel

in the beginning. i own all reknown kernel tweaking apps but it's definitely best to have one which

maches the kernel functions and upgrading etc. exactly.

as to the OnePlus One, i see and respect your point but want to say that i'm ready to contribute to

a purchase and/or invitation should that help and also i think that the availability as well as the

market share will increase soon. i really had them (flagship devices) almost all but this thing is

leaving me without further wishes. for the moment the perferct device for my non-phone usage

like multimedia, navigation, minor document reading and lectoring etc. and this not even

putting into account the outstanding money for value ratio, that only adds to it.

so without further notice i understand that you will not have the device, no problem at all, otherwise PM me as

to how i can assist, and i will PM you when i have an invitation to share, just in case that you reconsider. thanks

EDIT: Franco said ( he has a kernel r6 for it ) that it's very similar to the Nexus 5 in many aspects, just mentioning in case that it might have an impact :)

He was using the new radio from android 4.4.4 Release 2 (For 2Degrees/NZ, Telstra/AUS and India ONLY) (KTU84Q) when the drain was happening . whether that was the cause dunno , but he said another CM kernel didn't have the drain .
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
touch wake while charging might be unworkable.

With this stupid hardware, where the touch ic power is controlled by the panel driver, we have to power on and power off the display to disable the touch wake or the battery will drain when the charger is unplugged. I would need to force it to turn on an off (like with the wake timeout). The problem with that is that on some ROMs the display comes on when you plug or unplug the charger while on others it doesn't. We would end up with a lot of screen flicking on and off with unpredictable results.

It's too bad, on most devices this would be dead simple and a very nice feature. The way I imagined it, touchwake would even work for a few seconds after the screen turned off so you could turn it back on if it went off while you were reading something.
