Merry Xmas to all!

Here is latest version 8.0.

Everything freshly merged with 100% synced CM Kernel:

Chaos 8.0 Beta: http://d-h.st/7BD [Stable]

Debug messages showed no regression as in 7.0.

mpdecision is back

Only Stock freq used

Source upload in progress.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
What is this? It works on all ROMs for Nexus 5 only.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hdelvalle009:
Sorry bro ... Only ask because a friend asked me for the kernel I use and then you discuss this kernel

Tanx

Google Nexus 5

CyanogenMod 11

Chaos Kernel 6.0
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
Quick question. In the app I enabled s2w+s2s in order to get s2s working. But with override enabled s2w still works.

I wonder what I'm doing wrong.

Was on 6.0, same on 8.0
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
Working for me on 8.0 as well.

With both options enabled, S2W is disabled and S2S is enabled.

Anyone else to confirm?

Also, any regression faced compared to other version? The reason I put it in beta is the code is merged from the scratch, every patch one by one to ensure no conflicting code gets added. :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jose makalolot:
Mine won't boot on 8.0. I only get slighlty lighted blank screen after google boot logo.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sunil1982:
+1 for me its same....and i found modules folder is empty in zip
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
Thanks reporting. I take that as non-CM ROM ?

I know what will fix this, posting new beta build in couple of minute.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jose makalolot:
I'm currently using Purity... so I guess stock based.

Thanks. :)

Update:

Some parts of data/data has been corrupted with 8.0.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ChongoDroid:
Yep same with Stock ROM.. even corruption. :) nandroid ftw
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
Chaos 8.0 Beta 2: http://d-h.st/LaE

Changes over Beta 1:

Fixes compatibility with Stock-based ROMs.

ExFat module is back

TCP congestion set to "westwood"

Minor thermal optimization

NTFS, NFS file systems readded
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sklaes:
Beta2 boots on stockrom
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ChongoDroid:
I have a few questions, is the minimum frequency for the GPU actually 27mhz?? Also the app included seems to have the playstore thinking it's this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gokhanmoral.stweaks.app yet the signature is off so it won't update... you suggest we uninstall and install this one in the playstore?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
Thanks for pointing out. No it's not the lowest one. 200 MHz is the lowest one.

27 MHz is listed in the code but not used. I will remove from NXT. Thanks reporting.

I suggest to use the one provided with Kernel, since its July-2013 built while one in play store is Dec-2012 build.

One in play store was built for gingerbread ROMs, while NXT is built by me for JB+ ROMs.

You may try it and let us know your views.

BTW, I forgot to mention from 8.0 new GPU governor introduced "conservative."
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] yyz71:
The Newest build running smooth:good: Great job..

Still experiencing freezes using Chaos 8.0 Beta 2 with DroidKang.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
I already found faulty code that causes freeze on v7.0~7.2 and it was not merged with v8.0

Please restart device once after installing v8.0 and report back if an lag.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
Still s2w works.

Other then that works flawlessly. Thanks :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] m3dd0g:
Great kernel neo working flawless with my rom.

Chaos 8.0 Beta 3: http://d-h.st/zwj

Changes over Chaos 8.0 b2:

Add Morpheus mode - Control Screen on/off tweaks including governor, CPU speed, etc

Add Freq controls

Add OC back - but default max stays stock max unless you OC manually via NXT.

Correct frequencies listed by GPU Control. Thanks for reporting!

More thermal optimizations

More smoothness

IPv6 disabling control

Compiled using -O2 linaro and revised flags

Enable GENTLE_FAIR_SLEEPERS by default (and update its explanation for NXT)

New defaults for few more controls

Remove powersave CPU governor - It causes delay in screen on while incoming call.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
It's strange. Its working properly for me on DroidKang. Which ROM are you using?

Tested and developed on DroidKang! :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
Flashed beta 3, same thing.

In using unofficial Beanstalk (dev is soupysoup, forked from official Beanstalk). You think I may be ROM related issue? Well, I've got multiROM and my second ROM is exactly DroidKang. Let me test there if it's works for me.

Thanks.

Update. Flashed beta 3 on DroidKang v14. S2w still works.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DesignGrits:
Does anyone have the link to NXTweaks app? Can't find it on the play store and online.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
Is there any conflicting app being used?

Is there any unknown script in system/etc/init.d/ ?

With both enabled.. can you check and report value of /sys/android_touch/s2w_s2sonly ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
It's already installed while you flashed the kernel. I did exactly the same thing - very deep googling with zero results while the asp already installed and ready to go :)

---------- Post added at 09:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 PM ----------

Nor apps install (fresh install) not scripts.

The value is 1.

hey guys,

where can I find the settings for faux sound?

Thx!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DesignGrits:
Thank you, I feel like an idiot ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
Get in line, in the first here, bro :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
LOL ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
Nasty bug I suppose. Try this and let me know:

Chaos 8.0 Beta 4 : http://d-h.st/4QT
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
At the moment, faux sound is supported only via FauxSound app (paid)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Akeel1994:
thank you for the fast answer.

Will you add support for faux sound settings in the nxt app in future or should I buy the app? Can i change the settings with an other app? And last question: will faux sound will be part of the future chaos kernel releases?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
Sorry, no offense whatsoever :) That's my weird sense of humor.

---------- Post added at 10:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:17 PM ----------

I or that sounds weird, but it still works on the third sweep. I mean - first two sweeps looks OK, but on the third one - it works. I tried that for few times - the third one is working in 100℅ cases.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
I am not sure if any other app supports that.

NXT may not have Sound Control in future too due to code issue.

The quoted text belongs to other forum.

Too many sweeps are considered as DT2W. Don't you think?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Akeel1994:
okay. thank you.

btw: great job! I know you from the ics stunner roms form gt n7000. You do great work.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
Oops... I didn't think.

Now s2s I'd working for me. Thanks a lot, Neo :)

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
You can reduce throttling temperature from NXTweaks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
You can try this version, I have set defaults closer to stock:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] starche_old:
During the day today got couple of freezes for few secs. Like no response even on home button. After few secs works perfectly as usual.

Doesn't really bother me, just reporting. Running beta 4 from yesterday.

WiFi works flawlessly, access to web no issues. No overheating issues as well unless playing heavy games like real racing 3 and such, but that's expected.

Again, aside of those freezes no issues whatsoever. Great kernel, my daily driver from now. Thanks Neo :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
I have checked kernel debug messages a lot.

There is no part which will freeze any process.

Kindly clean install your ROM to latest version and then flash the kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] MALONGZY:
Short random freezes on 6.0

I sometimes experience short random freezes on kernel 6.0. Unlike 7.0 which freezes often, 6.0 freezes less. However your kernel is still the best with exceptional battery on my N5.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
I was talking about beta releases of v8.0. Special thanks to all beta testers! :good:

v8.0 stable is released, check OP. All freezes, stutters, etc resolved.:good:

Changelog for v8.0:

Completely renewed source code. You can find it HERE.

Linux Kernel mainline updates from version 3.4.75

No more stutter, freezes and micro lag. If you are facing any freeze, please clean install your ROM.

Added Morpheus mode to NXT - Screen on/off tweaks

Better camera picture quality

New frequency structure, 268 MHz is new lowest frequency with slightly lower voltage

Switched to kernel's thermal engine (ROM's thermal engine switched off)

Added thermal controls to NXT

Revised compiler flags - switched back to Linaro -O2 optimization. More smoothness.

GPU updates, GPU frequencies listed properly in NXT

New defaults in NXT

UKSM turned on by default

Sync with android 3.4 kernel branch

Added "Disabled" switch to Color Tweak in NXT to avoid interference with Faux Gamma app

mpdecision is on (it was turned off in v7.0)

NXT control to disable IPv6

Heavy performance optimizations

Removed intelli hotplug and intelli thermal engine
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Caipi123:
Fast Charge

I've flashed the Chaos kernel today (using SlimKat Rom), but Fast Charge is not working. Any idea why (used NXTweaks to enable Fast Charge)?

Is there a way to debug what's happening?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] neobuddy89:
No way to debug same.

I don't use it often however we got reviews that its working quite good.

I will look into it after sometime.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Caipi123:
Thank you! Just to be sure: if it's working, the device should always show "Charging AC", right? (until now I was checking that with a battery widget which shows the amps going in/being used by the device. With the original adapter it shows about 1A, so I think it's working)

Thanks in advance.

anyone got problem with Trickster on latest version?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nealkoy:
Just out of curiousity, why do you use trickster when NXT is already there?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Vaizen:
Undoubtedly The best kernel. I've tested several others and this is the one for me. Best battery life, best performance and excellent tweaks.

On v8 so far I've had one freeze while surfing. But overall this kernel in conjunction with Droidkang is the settling combination, there's nothing else I would want. Well maybe adding some sound control on NXTweaks would be nice.

Keep up with the good work mate.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] suneet mehta:
I also am using droidkang. Just started using chaos used elementalx previously. I have one issue. When i am on wifi the device gets heated up too fast. I mean it used to heat up this much while playing games. But now even when i am just using my wifi its getting heated up fast. I didn't change any thermal settings in nxtweaks. Any solution?!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Striatum_bdr:
I think the behaviour of the resetting to default option is not correct in NXT.

It sets all the values to minimal and not to recommamded settings. It can lead to issues if you don't check each value after that.

And a backup/restore feature would be great for frequent flashers lol.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] parkson:
I also had this same issue, running official 8.0 and Dirty Unicorns

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] imneveral0ne:
Installed over a clean, unchanged version of Cataclysm. Give it superuser permissions, and getting "Unexpected Error".

EDIT: Opened SuperSU, updated binary, forgot NXTweaks, rebooted, and now it say's No Kernel Support.

EDIT 2: Rebooted to recovery, wiped cache/dalvik, re-installed kernel, rebooted and everything works fine. Weird.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] my95z34:
Glad it wasn't just me.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] imneveral0ne:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dueltothedeath:
Installed on PA. Battery isn't charging. Reinstalled ROM from scratch and tried chaos again. Same problem. Flashed diff kernel and now its charging again. Anyone else have same issue?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] imneveral0ne:
Mine was charging just fine. I've reverted to Chaos 6.0 and everything is working as it should be again.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Vaizen:
I had that problem but with other kernels, maybe you changed from one to another without reflashing Droidkang, some kernels leave files and libs that will interfere with the correct behavior of chaos.

Anyways try dirty flashing Droidkang and then reflash chaos.

V14
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tyea:
No problems using 8.0 on cm 11 or pa 4.0. I did install the latest Busy Box, latest supersu 1.86. No problem using NXT either. I had to install 8.0 twice because the first time NXT would not open.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dueltothedeath:
So you went back to 6.0? What problems were you having on 8.0?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] imneveral0ne:
Data cutting in and out, sometimes cutting out and not going back in. I figured maybe it was just the area I was in, but it was fixed immediately after I flashed back to 6.0. Plus others have mentioned it as well.

Is there any way to tweak voltages with 8.0? Trickster doesn't have that option anymore.

I'm going back to Linaro r25 as for the moment, it's been smooth and runs my normal setup of -75 -100mV all around.

I've also had a few hiccups with 8.0; nothing major, but Swiftkey and Hangouts sort of stopped responding for a few seconds.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ashish Bhalla:
chaos 8.0 is causing more battery drain than the previous versions . [MENTION=955548]neob[/MENTION]uddy will you please look into it..n why is the linario toolchain still not O3 compiled ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Striatum_bdr:
Linaro optimizations are probably useless for a kernel. Many devs don't use them as it's irrelevant for a kernel they were developed for a whole Rom, where you have at least 3 different languages. So don't worry about O3 vs O2 compilation. A blind test would be funny to organize you would be surprised.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
You actually have that completely backwards...however I do agree about the blind test statement.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] shantu:
[MENTION=3795148]neobuddy89[/MENTION] - you mentioned better camera picture quality as one of the features of v8.0. there are couple of camera mods available for N5 - Jishnu's Camera™ and ZeroCamera. Is there anything in common between these and your optimizations? Can we flash these mods without loosing your changes?

BTW - great kernel, the N5 sleeps like a log ( lost 1% in 5 hrs sleep with aeroplane mode on :D )
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] danarama:
I've read a few kernel devs say that linaro is agreed to be pretty useless for kernels. Probably the same posts as the member you quoted.

I'd say if renowned kernel devs cannot agree on the importance of this tool chain, then the jury is still out and we as users shouldn't care :)
