Was on 0.29 before. I can't imagine it was the I/O scheduler that helped the battery during idle but overall with 0.31 and fiops, I'm getting great battery life and everything is very smooth which includes scrolling in tapatalk.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GuestK00150:
latest cm11 nightly and 0.31 express is a really good combo, 0.31 just with default settings seems to be way better than default kernel! highly recommended combo!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] c_brown93:
I am getting heavy Android OS battery drain with 0.31 stock. No s2w or dt2w. And Google Now off, Location reporting off. No apps constantly syncing. Didn't know if it was a kernel issue. I came from Franco and had no drain.

Have you tried DroidKang?

Would be good to hear your thoughts between the two cos i totally loved droidkang

haven't given a go to beanstalk (btw do you mean the soupysoup one or the original)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] r0cky0790:
Been waiting to try cm. Would it be OK to flash over Cataclysm. I heard you can I just want to make sure.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Savant:
Be easier to clean flash since it can introduce bugs later on down the road.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] FuMMoD:
Rule of thumb is never too flash different roms over each other. Different roms should always be clean flashes.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Syk69:
No way definitely don't want to do that! Cataclysm is based off stock Google ROM and cm is based off aosp and they introduced caf hardware libs to go along with their custom ramdisk. Basically your phone would explode! Lol jk

But yeah you will have to clean flash to try cm. Also elementalx cm version.

I've tried droidkang and liked it. Good amount of features and very stable. Only thing I didn't like was the settings could be better organized. Also hasn't been updated in a long while.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] GuestK00150:
as stated before in short: do a titanium and nandroid backup, backup your sdcard to your pc and do a clean cm flash with latest cm 0.31 elementalx kernel. I think you won't regret ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] UgoBoss:
Is 0.31 stable enough ? I'm pretty sure the battery life is awesome as always, but I wanna use it as my daily driver. should I stay on 0.29 or move on 0.31 ?

Thank's by advance ! :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] r0cky0790:
This isn't my first rodeo so I know about the rule of thumb. Allot of guys in the cm thread was saying they were flashing over cataclysm with no issues. Just needed you guys input here. That's a little off topic though. Back to the regular scheduled Kernel program.?

Of course we'll come back to flash the latest elemental kernel lol.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] D@nge1:
Why save the file to the internal memory elementalx.conf?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nadiros:
Your setup from the installer are saved there, and any subsequent changes made manually to the same file in /etc. Any further flashes of kernel may now be done with the express version (non aroma) of the kernel. Its a little quicker with less fuss especially for those who flash nightlies.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] chris6278:
Tried that awhile back an it was alright but went back to cm+xposed+gravitybox an xblast tools. Love it! I used the xposed modules with cm to give me the features cm dont have. Oh yea .31 is awesome!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MrCatalyst:
Switched from Chaos Kernel, and it seems to be working fine so far. Running default settings + colour tweak, and I'm quite pleased with it.

Once PAC-ROM is out, for N5, I will see how it performs there. Otherwise, DK is working fine with the kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DoesntPostAThing:
I'm not a huge fan of xposed. Also custom ROMs provide more than just ui tweaks, which I don't care much about. And then there's the limitation of having to use dalvik with xposed.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ck.chunkeat:
One small question, I'm currently using stock+ franco kernel. If I want to switch from franco to elementalx, I noticed in the op, it was stated that if coming from other kernel, its better to dirty flash the rom.

My question is should i dirty flash stock rom? If yes, where do I get the rom file? If not, do I just flash elementalx 0.31 straight from recovery??

Thanks alot.( sorry but I have tried using the search button but can't find anything relevant.)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] letmedanz:
If you search for 'ramdisk' you'll get more responses than you can read :)

anyhow since you asking nicely ;)

it is recommended that you flash the stock rom so that you will get the stock kernel installed.

once stock kernel is installed, flashing elemental over it will not usually cause issues especially if you are using other kernels.

that being said, the dev has made it so that there will usually be no issues.

you can flash elemental over franco using current ramdisk & all should be okay

if you have issues, reflash with stock ramdisk

if issues still persists, then you'll have no choice but to flash stock rom to have the stock kernel & on top of it flash elemental

When it comes to battery is 31 same as 30?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
[MENTION=4610763]ck.chunkeat[/MENTION]

One correction: flash with stock ramdisk

Flashing over Franco kernel with current ramdisk will cause bad problems.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ck.chunkeat:
:eek: I just flashed it.. Should i reflash it with stock ramdisk? o.O
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] chazall1:
YES, reflash it with stock ramdisk!!!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ck.chunkeat:
Okay, already did, will observe the battery life to compare with my previous kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
30 gave everyone different results some had great battery some not so much ( 30 didn't like my phone ...) , but 31 is like 26 was in battery comparison . I'm pulling 4+ hours with every Google app there is running & syncing full time , screen at 55% 24/7 . and I'd say I'm on LTE 70% of the day 30% WiFi . that's with stock ROM bionic patch ( no dalvik ) and Gbox
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gpvecchi:
Because if you update your ROM, just flash Express version of the kernel, it will copy the previous configuration to \etc and will apply it, without setting it again with aroma. This thing rocks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] EarlZ:
Im currently using franco and would like to try this out, do i need to reflash the stock rom back ? If so can anyonr link me of a step by step guide on how to do so. Thanks!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] letmedanz:
you just need to read the previous page mate :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] EarlZ:
From what I understand, I can just restore the stock kernel back then flash to ElementalX since the objective of flashing the stock rom is just to get the stock kernel?

What does the "Current ramdisk" mean ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
I don't have time to test right now, but I think if you choose the stock ramdisk option, it doesn't set the governor to elementalx.

The elementalx governor is highly recommended for best balance of battery life and performance.

By far the best thing to do if you're coming from another kernel is dirty flash or flash stock kernel, and then flash ElementalX with defaults.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
There is an FAQ by Gingerbread Man on the Franco kernel thread. You need to only change 2 things and then flash the stock kernel. A link to the stock kernel is on the FAQ too I think. If not I'll find it for you. Then just make sure everything is working and flash this kernel. Either .26 or if you can find it .31 even though it's not in the thread title. Both work unbelievably well.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] PetritH:
or just dirtyflash your rom if you're using custom one then flash elementalx.. thats what I do when I test kernels.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
Always the easiest way. Unless you have Xposed and ViperMod installed and perhaps others I don't know of. I mean it's not a big deal to reinstall the framework and the drivers but sometimes it's just easier to change two file names and flash a stock kernel. Either way works. Also know that if you have the MotoX Dalvik enhancements installed you'll have to reinstall them too if you dirty flash the rom.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ck.chunkeat:
Another quick question, is the double tap 2 wake suppose to work if i turn screen off using power button, then double tap when there's a notification coming in?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
I don't think so. Power button disables any 2somethings.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ck.chunkeat:
weird, for some reason, I was under the impression that it works that way.. If there's a notification coming in while it's toggled off, you can double tap 2 wake for a certain period of time before it is toggled off again.:confused:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] letmedanz:
Safest way is to restore stock kernel & then flash elemental, so you know any issues that's being caused is not due to the kernel

quoting Flar - "Current ramdisk will work in most cases. The stock ramdisk option will work for roms that use the stock kernel and can be useful if you've flashed a different kernel and you want to make sure you have the stock ramdisk again. "

if you are looking for technical meanings, it's beyond my purview..

but a google search will explain things in detail.

the power button toggles the s2w & dt2w function

as you are aware, these features are an 'extra' to our device.

so battery drain is going to be extremely high since the device will be 'awaiting' a tap to unlock etc.

but if you toggle it off, then the battery drain reduces considerably.

if you have your phone around you & you think you would be using the phone, then no need to use the power button toggle.

but in cases where you may go to sleep or in a meeting where you can't really use your phone for a bit, it makes sense to turn the feature off to minimize battery drain
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
I'm not sure then. I used it for about a day and lost tons of battery while I was just hanging around. I disabled it and never looked back. I liked the feature but battery suffered dramatically. Even with the power button I had problems. If you're by a charger all day it's a fun feature. If you need battery life forget it and hit the power button to turn it on and off.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ck.chunkeat:
I know about the toggle part, but I just had the impression that it should work when there's a notification even if i have toggle it off. If it is not implemented, can it be implemented? That way, there is only 3 way for dt2w to work,

1. screen off after a amount of time has passed, then double tap 2 wake it.

2. sweep 2 sleep

3. when there's a notification and you want to unlock the phone.

This might be a good alternative since dt2w drains battery. This would reduce the battery drain. :)

Not sure if it is implementable though.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] letmedanz:
hmmm.. i think even if you have turned off the toggle through the power button, when you have a notification, the screen will light up..

have you tried it & isn't it working??
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ck.chunkeat:
The screen will not light up if there's notification, why would it light up?

Anyway, I first flash only the dt2w and power button toggle, then i flash a second time with dt2w, sweep2sleep and power button toggle. Then there's a notification coming in , and i intuitively double tap thinking it will work even though i switched it off through power button toggle, but it didnt happen. So i asked here whether is it suppose to work or not.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] laichung:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] thank you for this great kernel!

For the s2w/dt2w function, i wonder if the function can be enhanced to "disable by idle time", for example, stop dt2w function if the screen do not turn on for 2hrs. It should be nice for people like me that enjoy the function but always forget to turn off the phone by power button before sleep.

Thanks again:good:

I have a little idea for s2w/s2s/dt2w.

I don't if It's possible...

Can you build in a timer for s2w/s2s/dt2w?

For example: after xxx Minutes deactivate without using, deactivate s2w/dt2w.

I hope you unterstand what i mean....

Hi guys,

When the device is locked and the screen is on, dragging the camera button to the left is supposed to launch the camera, however with s2w enabled the screen turns off due to the swipe on the soft buttons and the camera is not launched. I use this quick camera access quite often.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Yes, it works. Look's like will launch the camera, but it sleeps the device

On CyanogenMod with this kernel under performance, the minimum frequency is always held at 1267mhz and won't stay at 300. Is this a bug with CyanogenMod or the kernel?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
TouchBoost is likely set to 1267MHz. Whenever you touch the screen, the freq jumps to 1267MHz. It's a kernel feature, not a bug.

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] - wondering if the wifi battery drain issue was fixed in 0.31 (or did it start with .31?)

last night had a 42% drop in battery & usage shows wifi to be on top of the list (just about 7 hours)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
This is not a kernel issue. Please look elsewhere for what is keeping your wifi drawing power probably through a partial wakelock.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jlevy73:
Do you have better battery stats installed (or wake lock detector)? If so, post your partial wakelock screen. For me, on Purity + 0.31 wifi wake lock has been excellent.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] letmedanz:
There has been no change in my setup for the past week except for upgrading from 0.30 to 0.31.

This is the CM version am talking about

i will check to see if there's anything else that causing this, but if you take a looksie, there have been a few who've had this issue

i do have BBS

Unfortunately, i rest everything so i could actually check things out.

will post the wakelocks after the next charge cycle.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] FuMMoD:
Most likely it's a stuck CPU state at 2.2 or 1.2 ghz. It happens to me at random times and I've posted a logcat concerning it. It happens even on a rom without gapps and only bbs installed so it's not an app. Logcat shows that it's not a rogue app either.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jlevy73:
So you'd have to do a reboot to fix it? Could also be a router issue. Seen some people have issues with publicly shared wireless connections like universities giving high wifi wakelocks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby janow:
Oh, I see. I sometimes forget that there are people not running stock rom on the N5. lol So since it only happens on CM then can we safely assume it's a rom issue? Or does it happen to you on stock as well?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] FuMMoD:
It happens on stock and stock based roms too. I suffered from this issue earlier on.

Yup I would have to reboot and I don't use wifi. T-Mobile LTE in my area is really good lol and my battery last forever on it.
