Depends on the ambient temperature, but if that is the cpu temperature, it seems hot for idle. It will quickly ramp up if the phone is working. Temps like that are normal if you are using the phone. Charging will also heat up the phone.

I'm in a climate controlled office, mine is idling around 30-33C.

The thermal.conf has nothing to do with idle temps, it only defines what happens when the temperature is high (in which case it throttles the cpu frequency until it cools off). In extreme cases, the phone will shutdown.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] absoluterebirth:
I live in Atlanta and my room is usually at around 22-24C. So I'm sure its not due to my ambient temp. and as for my phone working a lot, I'm hardly ever on my phone. It's usually in my pocket, sitting there. The only times I will pick it up and use it is to check a text or some school emails. And still, the temperatures would idle around 34-38C. I've switched back to stock kernel and the heating issue seems to be gone.

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] what program do you suggest for making changes to the settings ie. Trickstermod
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TonyTurboII:
Just tried to install .6 and now I'm getting no signal and a couple of force close errors.

I tried to reinstall the stock kernel but it is making no difference. About phone Status shows unknown imei.

I tried to restore the boot partition from a previous backup as well as a EFS backup with no luck.

Any way I can fix this without wiping all my data???
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] EnzoFr83:
Very good Kernel !

But, i can't up the minimal frequency... It's always 300 Mhz.

Have you a solution for up the minimal frequency please ?

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] : any plans to implement the disable s2w power toggle like the Nexus 7? Maybe that would help out with battery life?

Yes, it's what you did with HTC devices (someone in this thread mentioned that). But what I said is about Lockscreen Notifications in Mahdi rom.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
This is for stock/non-CAF ROMs only!!!

I'll update the CAF version soon.

This needs testing, if you're unsure, stay with 0.26

If using a different kernel, make sure you dirty flash your ROM before installing.

If you have any troubles, dirty flash your ROM and reinstall.

If you want to easily reinstall with the express installer, you must install the standard version with AROMA installer first to ensure you have an up-to-date config file. After that, the express installer will keep all your settings.

Otherwise, the express installer will give you defaults.

Download:

ElementalX-N5-0.30

ElementalX-N5-0.30-express

Changes:

-deadline is default i/o scheduler

-update backlight dimmer (more gradual steps)

-export storage for usb otg

-update installer

-save elementalx.conf to sdcard

-express installer sees all options now

-many optimizations and fixes (see github)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Here's something for advanced users. Messing with this could result in: a) lag b) poor battery life c) frequencies getting stuck or d) all of the above.

I'd recommend you stay away from this unless you're pretty familiar with how android and kernels work, can recognize when something is not working correctly, and can get things back to normal.

I added the cpu-boost drivers from cyanogenmod, which means you can configure the touchboost if you want. You have to remove the powerhal file (if you don't know which file to remove, you shouldn't be doing this), reboot and then configure cpu-boost. For example:

echo 1267000 > /sys/module/cpu_boost/parameters/input_boost_freq

echo 50 > /sys/module/cpu_boost/parameters/boost_ms

In my testing, disabling the stock touchboost and using this did not significantly improve battery and it's not quite as smooth. But if you want to tinker and find optimal settings, you can.

Warning 1: to get stock touchboost back, you need to copy the powerhal lib file in recovery or with adb push and reboot, otherwise it won't register

Warning 2: enabling cpu_boost and stock touchboost at the same time will cause cpu0 to be stuck at 1267000

Warning 3: the input boost code in the elementalx governor is not used at all, it does nothing (maybe in the future)

So if on .26 we can flash .30 dirty or do we have to flash the aroma version first? Sorry little confused
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Going from 0.26 to 0.30:

If you flash the 0.30 express version, you will get all default settings (your 0.26 settings will not be kept)

If you flash 0.30 aroma version, you pick your settings again, they are stored, and in the future you can flash the express version and it will keep your settings.

just to make sure i renamed the correct file, the powerful file is named power.msm8974.so, correct? if so, i was unable to get the custom cpu-boost to work. all i ended up with was permanently disabled touchboost
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
That's the file, you also have to manually enable cpu_boost as I described.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tlf55:
Quick question : if we remove the powerhal and enable cpu_boost, do we have to re-enable it everytime we reboot the phone ? or it keeps it settings ? (if it doesn't keep its settings we should creat a script then ?) If we want to disable cpu_boost what is the cmd ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Zorrich:
Version 0.30 working great here so far.. Played a few games, tested my most commonly used apps, no issues that I can find as of yet!

Really amazing kernel. Thanks you. Performance is great as always, and the battery life was increased.:good:

But i found a small bug. It is this change "-save elementalx.conf to sdcard".

When I change the file elementalx.conf on sdcard and reboot the device, there is no change (the file is restored.) But if I change the settings in the system/etc/elementalx.conf and reboot the device, they are applied as usual.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
You still have to change /etc/elementalx.conf

every time you boot, it saves /etc/elementalx.conf to the sdcard so that you always have a copy even if you reinstall.

Don't change the one on the sdcard, it will get overwritten by the one in /etc

I know it's a bit confusing.

Did you reboot? What governor?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tlf55:
yeah i reboot, Elementalx gov
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
I might be wrong but my interpretation of warning 3 by [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] was that the code isn't implemented in that governor?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hellsgod:
Your cpu will be boosted for 50ms. How would you see that? If you're using your device you'll see it in the stats.

Boost is independent from the governor. No code in the governor needed.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tlf55:
I see it because i put 1000ms to test it .. but it boost only the first core
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Sayan1987:
If i use app like lux to set brightness and lux values, which prevails? app or backlight dimmer built in kernel?

If using app it's better to not use backlight dimmer kernel option?

What does warning 3 mean?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] notbrodie:
Lux works in concert with the kernel dimmer module

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hellsgod:
Idk ask flar2. I only know that the input boost doesn't need any code modification in the governor to work.

hells
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
Ok. Its just that in setcpu, you can see settings such as the ability to enable / disable cpu boost and other settings, yet these options don't span all governors so I imagine that at least some code in relation to this exists in the governor

So for example, elementalx

Vs ondemand
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hellsgod:
Then thats another boost from the governor itself, which won't do anything (like flar2 said in his 3rd warning). / Warning 3: the input boost code in the elementalx governor is not used at all, it does nothing (maybe in the future) - Makes perfectly sense for me with this explanation.

hells
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
This setting has always existed. Its nothing to do with 0.30 and by disabling it, it does indeed stop cpu boost from working. Its nothing to do with warning 3 in 0.30 but perhaps it shows that boost can be governor dependent
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
There is also code (and options) in the elementalx governor for an input boost, but its disabled. I was just warning not to try setting it that way because it won't do anything.

Also, the cpu_boost driver doesn't bring any cores online
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
Oooh sneaky edit.

In which case doesn't that bring us back full circle to;
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] safendi:
Kernel 23 is the best. V30 kill all app during the navigation with chrome.

You should provide logs if you're reporting a bug. And the steps to reproduce and your rom details

No problems on 0.30 with chrome and multi tasking here
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
Chome /phone works fine , been on and off chrome for hours since 30 was dropped not one issue
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hellsgod:
Its an independent boost feature for the ElementalX governor, whichs doesn't affect the CAF boost driver. So I didn't knew what exactly you meant with "isn't implemented". In case of the CAF boost driver, you don't need anything to implement to make it boost :) But btt now, flar2 explained what he meant with warning 3.

hells
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
Yep thanks I got it now. He is warning that the cpu boost that existed already (that I thought worked and was disabling) actually never did anything and is nothing to do with the new implementation and doesn't work :)

is anyone else having trouble getting this to boot reliably? i'm on stock and reflash the system and boot images to clean the slate, then flashed v30, but it just loops at the google logo. if i boot into bootloader and then start from there, it will sometimes complete the boot. however, as of right now, it just boot loops. if i reflash the stock kernel, it boots just fine.

my dumb ass was accustomed the 650@300 but i guess 700 is too low for start up. UV removed, problem solved

Sorted? I don't know man... I'd try flashing stock and letting it boot once first and then go back into recovery and flash v30. This is not based on science though lol, just from experience that these things can be finicky sometimes. I'm pretty much stock myself.
