Oh alright, thanks. Maybe this should be in FAQ. Anyway, I asked this because 0.34 was the first time I tried Elemental and saw a lot of battery life improvement, and then updated to 0.36 and felt battery life took a hit - so thought maybe my undervolt etc settings didn't carry over.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
U can check them here .sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/vdd_table/vdd_levels
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tusa:
For my case, I used 0.34 before. I installed 0.36 since y'day. For 0.36, my N5 burn my battery from 100% to 68%. In 0.34 period, same usage & hours for it, my battery only burn from 100% to 80%. All of Elemental version that I config in same setting. Don't know why~:rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] the_rebel:
You lost me. What's this path to and where do i see it?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Its the path to voltage levels , u said u weren't sure they stuck right ? U can check :) . just use your file explorer . i use root explorer pro
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] the_rebel:
aha! Never knew about this, thank you :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tusa:
Does root explorer (not pro) better than ES File Explorer?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Its a Personal preference , I've been using it since it it came out years ago dose everything i need
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ralpheboyo:
...both are very good...I use solid explorer but only because I prefer the ui....as already mentioned it's a preference....all of them are very good....
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tusa:
Just search Root Explorer in google play. It seems quite simple ui too. :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sempot:
Maybe you just flashed the kernel.. Let it settle.. A couple of charge cycles would fix that.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SuperSalvo:
I have the same issue. Seems that 0.36 is a bit more hungrier than 0.34. Is there something we can do about it? :confused:

Also i have another question. With trickster mod i have the option of Multicore Power Saving. Back in the days of my galaxy nexus it was a very good feature. How is this with the nexus 5? Should i let it on 0 for disable or like 2 to for the most aggressive?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] letmedanz:
Trickster causes issues.

check CPUspy if the device is going to 300mhz at all or idling around 1267mhz

that could be the reason for your battery drain..

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] FuMMoD:
Define mid brightness please. Middle would be 50 percent and that's pretty bright.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] alb3rtt:
By middle I meant mid *actual* brightness , not the bar. (Pretty subjective..) Min is MUCH darker than slightly above min for me so I have it here.

Sorry, I should have used better wording..
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] r0cky0790:
? Been using Elemental since 0.2# versions. They get better every time. Flar has worked really hard to address peoples main concerns and wants. In return, unspoken, he receives recognition as having arguably one of the best kernels for the N5 and other devices as well. Besides the issues that were addressed by the developer here in this thread, I don't experience any problems with this kernel. ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] r0cky0790:
1 more. [Satisfied with battery even with crappy signal & clocked @ 2956 MHz]

Probably be better if I had lower OC and turn off some sync settings.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SuperSalvo:
Oh great to know! :eek:

I have ereased trickster mod but it still about 1190 mhz while my display is on. Off screen it goes directly in sleeping mode. When should i get the 300 mhz? While the display is on?

Also i'm using franco's app for the color profile? Do you think it will mess up my frequency like trickster mod?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] szucsgf:
After uninstalling Trickster, reboot your phone. CPU should idle at 300MHz with screen on.

On default settings your CPU should spend the most time in these frequencies:

1. Deep sleep

2. Min CPU (300MHz)

3. MPD touch boost (1267MHz)

With other frequencies times depending on how you used your phone. In general, apps that change CPU frequencies and set on boot can cause min CPU frequency to stick at 1267 instead of 300. I use trickster to monitor my CPU frequencies but I don't select "set on boot".
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akarol:
As much as I appreciated the DT2W timeout feature, I discovered that it is kind of useless if any app wakes up your device's screen. In my case, my device is constantly awaken due to texts, WA, etc. So it keeps the timeout going and going. Unfortunately, I just have to accept that I can't use the DT2W feature at all on my N5. :(
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SuperSalvo:
I have rebooted my nexus and reseted the settings Form Franco app. Now my phone settles in 300 MHz. THX!

Now i will try per app modes if it will mess up the frequency as well and report.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
I wouldn't say useless , your just going to have more of a battery drain which isn't really that bad with it on all the time . I get about a 10% difference with it on 24/7 and by the time my phone hits under 20% ( 10% with it on ) I'm going to charge it anyways .. So if your not watching your battery u may notice besides visually it may not effect your day to day .
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SuperSalvo:
I've tested a little bit. Per APP mode with 0.36 will mess up the frequency. Like you said every thing that changes the frequency will mess it up. But... I've tested it in 0.34 and it will remain stable no matter what changes i take in the frequency.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
No difference at all between 0.34 and 0.36 when it comes to frequencies or anything related.

The changes were: add RGB colour control, fix the flash, and updates to the backlight dimmer
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TR2N:
I am on ElementalX (0.36) for the first time since 3 days, since Francos Kernel is getting worser with every build he releases and because of his "attitude"... I should have changed earlier. The kernel is performing fantastic on latest PA Beta. Thank you for your work!

His attitude is completely fine imo (hilarious sometimes) but with my kernels I wanna set it and forget it, and that's rarely the case with his work. Had screens not waking up on both grouper kernels before and now with all the hammerhead shenanigans...

ElementalX's express kernels however are right up my alley. Been on 36 for over 24 hours now and have come away super impressed. Loving the performance and stability!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jendrassik:
After testing several kernel...i can easily say that elementalx overtakes them all in terms of smoothness and battery life.

Keep going guys!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] kmar22:
Just thinking out loud here [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] is there anyway to implement more options in the Aroma installer so we dont have to really use a third party kernel control app? Latest is running pretty smoothly as always by the way.

Re: battery drain

I was losing some percentage quicker also until I rebooted this morning with no changes made. Worked wonders, not sure why. I didn't lose any battery in almost 2 hours with screen off and on just to check in, but with no real activity. Never had that before or should I say it's been some time. Not a very heavy user but on text, email all day pretty much. 2.6% / hour since this morning. Not bad at all for me. Maybe a reboot would help others is my point.

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]

i was reading through franco's commits and this particular one caught my eye: https://github.com/franciscofranco/hammerhead/commit/8867f32cc94caba66afd743705d9fb27acb6b91f

supposed to increase audio quality and reduce power consumption.

your thoughts?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mpgrimes:
I have noticed this as well after flashing kernel after first boot play services has a ton of keep awake time. A reboot seems to fix it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bigknowz:
Play Services after boot

Don't think its kernel related, have had the issue on other kernels. I made my On Boot Tasker profile wait 15 minutes and then turn off/on sync. Try that instead of rebooting.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PetritH:
No, no, it's not HTC M8 its a Nexus 5 :P

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION], you're a God
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
That's a Google issue , its totally random and it will happen on stock kernel also
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
I tend to agree. But i'm not sure that it is totally random. I think after a kernel flash these offending services go into a state of shock. They settle after a day (or so) and a reboot puts them back to bed.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] kmar22:
Lol I get it, but I'd just much rather set everything using aroma so I don't have to deal with the issues some people experience with kernel apps. I think it would make the whole installation care free. But I get your point.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] LostSoulFly:
Really happy with this. I've been with .35 for a few days. I don't use my phone too often, maybe watch a bit of netflix before work or make a few calls/text the fiance, etc. Only problem I've seen is with audio occasionally. If I get a text/hangout. my tone plays and skips or has other audio issues as it plays. Everything seems to work fine when the phone is on and unlocked. I don't have any special settings, everything stock for the kernel.

Screen on time is only 48mins, but I'm not super concerned with that. I'm happier with a low battery drain while sleeping more than anything.

Hello,

I am a noob when it comes to kernels on the Nexus 5 and am not sure whether slimkat is AOSP or CM. It is stated, that they use features from both.

Could someone please tell me what kernel to use?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vin4yak:
Slimkat is AOSP :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bonedriven:
Anyone care to explain what are the changes from 0.34 to 0.36?

Changelog isn't very clear. I'm happy with 0.34 so I'm waiting to see if 0.36 is better
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] FuMMoD:
I actually read a thread today on wake locks and this was covered in there. This is due to the media scanner that Android runs after a kernel or rom install. Most of the time you'll notice increased Battery drain right after a fresh flash. This is why users suggest to let a kernel settle in first. Good bit of information for you guys.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] magnamentis:
right but there is more to it :)

good to repeat that from time to time until it sticks :)

the follwing post from 5th of april mentions it as well and i think it's important for everyone to understand

that, basically after each boot not only after flashing, the media library is updated.

i have a notification in my status bar to tell me when it's finished, so not to disconnect the charger before it finished. the icon also

gives proof that it happens upon every reboot which is not unimportant to know, otherwise one can end up with 3% drain in the first 10 minutes and get a shock haha......

Which app are u using to check for the media scanner? On my galaxy devices it used to display in the notification bar by default whenever it was running.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] SuperSalvo:
But but but it is really like i said. I've tested with 0.34 and 0.36. Everthing that will change the frequency in some sort will screw up

the kernel to not scale down to 300 Mhz in 0.36. I'm a noob in programming so i can't tell you why. Now i'm using 0.36 with default settings

from the aroma installer. Only thing i changed is a color profile from the franco app. It is running good today, but perhaps there is some other user that likes to set up frequency in real time and so i notice this for.

But i can say that is so far the best kernel for the nexus 5 i've tested.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thesebastian:
I'm using stock firmware + 0.34 stable + art + bionic patch + 3G (WiFi off) and I'm having good battery life

I'm amazed with the performance of this kernel.

BTW I had to leave 4G networks because in my house I've only 2/2 LTE bars and that was killing my battery a bit faster than 3G.
