Let's start the "useless" posts with SOT screenshots of blu_spark :p

( i call them "useless" because everyone has it's own usage pattern but anyway it's fun )

Not so heavy usage, mainly under wifi, 2g, data always on, location off, mostly e reading, news and rss, IMing with Wapp and Hangouts,

few mins calls, few mins watching streams on Twicth, no gaming, no hibernation apps, stable brightens at 40%,

Stock settings, only UV -50 ( UV does not affect SOT i believe, just to help a little with the heat as it's hot summer down here :) )

ROM Purity :highfive:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
I didn't said how mmuch data I copied, did I? ;p

I even copied TWRP backups and no such issues, works fine.

Kernel doesn't drain, unless you keep dt2w on all the time (it wouldn't surprise if you forgot about it on judging for that values).

About bat in general:

Yeah everyone's pattern is different, some use sync some don't, some keep apps that use more power, whatever.

Kernel has a very good drain ratio. Not the best? Well I don't care, my pinpoint is about compromise between bat and performance, getting it better than stock.

How you tweak it to get more or less it's up to you.

I want this thread clean of battery crap (by crap I mean I got this and I got that), this is not a battery life thread.

Carry on.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaibar:
I agree with you about everything.

However, I think if you make a survey what is the reason we choose to use your kernel, the majority of reasons is going to be probably about battery, or maybe gaming performance.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
Damn, I thought it was because of the good looks and bad temper ahahah
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] onesolo:
I have the same "problem". No problems whatsoever on standby, no drains at all, I can get at night about 2% of battery draw. But when I use the phone... oh my... the battery vanishes like hell... it's been that equal since the first times... by now, my SOT in 2 days is 2h, if I only get 1 day I get maybe 3h of SOT... and yes I know... this must be the apps that I have installed, have a lot of them...

Android is hell on this... even when using the phone but not using the apps they still consume battery... iOS on this is so much better... f*ck google ecosystem on this...

That is not a problem from this kernel or any other kernel. This is a issue that N5 has since I can remember... copying big files is impossible!!! If I try to do it my N5 just get warmer and eventually gets stuck and fails to copy the file. I have to reboot the N5.

My only remedy is to boot to recovery, TWRP, and copy from there. On the recovery I don't have any problems whatsoever copying files from the N5.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BlazeForth:
Yea. Thats what i do now, by going to recovery and copy files. Its weird.? ✌

I flashed onto the stock lollipop rom, all is good.

What apps do I need to alter colour profiles, min brightness, tap to wake and under clocking?

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] nitramus:
I thought I saw a post somewhere where he said he would no longer use xda and use G+ like he did with code_blue.

I'm sure I saw it but it must have been for something else then.

thanks
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fabio000:
I think it was something like that, I tested again yesterday (but only for 4 hours instead of 8) and had exactly the same 0,51% per hour that I had with the other kernel :)

but I'm sure I disabled dt2w, must be some bug with the app I used that didn't sticked the option after a reboot or something like that...

question, it's a bug or is intentional that the lowest voltage can't be anything lower than 700? If I put anything lower it comes back to 700 ( normally use 675 for 300 MHz and 700 to 422MHz)

Hi All,

I just found this thread. I am still on the cold blue 955. Can I flash the this kernel directly or I need to flash the ROM file before flashing this kernel.

I am on the catalysm ROM.

Touch boost is available in this kernel ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] J_Whit85:
Nope
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
Don't know what you mean by touch boost, but there is a parameter in blu_active for boost freq on touch (input_boost_freq) and the duration of boost (boostpulse_duration).
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] zellleonhart:
Hi, I just switched to a N5 from N4 and flashed this kernel. I have a very high amount of bam_dmux_wakelock, and I got to know it is related to mobile network. It has the wakelock even when the screen is on.

It does have doubletap2wake but sweep2sleep? I don't think so.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Chaplan:
I use that feature on cataclysm. It is built on the ROM. And Chroma has double tap on navbar built-in to. As for other ROMs i don't know. Personally i prefer not to relly on the kernel for that feature.

Thank you [MENTION=3873953]eng.stk[/MENTION] :)

It's the first time I use your kernel on CM12.1

I just notice (like with EX kernel) that the overall sound level is higher than stock CM kernel.

Is there a solution to decrease the sound level. For me minimum level is too "loud".
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AhmadMarikar:
I think there's a Sound Bug present in the recent CM12.1 nightly build? Doubt it's the kernel.

Have you tried the kernel on any other Rom?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
The sound is the normal level present in AOSP.

The sound on CM is lower than normal because of some CAF sound patches that lower the level.

I've tried this kernel for some days, and IMHO this kernel and ElementalX are the best kernels for N5. When using EleX, I always turn s2w/dt2w on during charge, but this doesn't support that feature. I think this kernel will be perfect with that feature. Please add it, if it doesn't spoil anything.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Primokorn:
I don't think so. eng.stk wants to keep a clean kernel that's why he didn't add this feature imho.

Can u make SELinux Enforcing for this kernel rather than Permissive.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] marf28101995:
We already talked about this before.. It's permissive because of Android 6.0 preview that needs it to have root working
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BelzIgoh:
Sorry, maybe I'm not clear enough. I mean kernel for lollipop 5.1.1.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Primokorn:
He's also talking about LP 5.1.1. Blu_spark is set to permissive for LP & M because of M preview builds.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] hjjiang:
is there any harm for 5.1.1 to set to enforcing after flashing? via editing /etc/selinux/config ??
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ctiantolentino:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] stonew5082:
No it's not included any more. Faux123 hasn't touched faux sound in over a year so it's glitchy with lollipop and this kernel abandoned it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vn00914361:
I thought eng.stk was the dev for this kernel? Paul has not touched Faux Sound for awhile doesn't mean its functionality is ruined or abandoned. Other kernels still use it anyway.

Same as Gamma Control. Paul invented Gamma Control and ever since, all the kernels embedded functionality of Gamma Control.

Faux sound really is buggy on lollipop. The values you set don't stick. Hope it's good enough now.
