Can anybody share the screenshot of non modified low memory killer settings in Kernel Aduitor for Nexus 5? I would be grateful.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] wingoku:
Thanks ☺ I am interested in all the Slider values. Your screenshots seem to be missing content provider and empty_app values. Can you please post them too ☺
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] wingoku:
I want to have 450MB minfree ram all the time. For that how can I set content provider and empty app values to 450? Kernel aduitor doesn't allow to set values beyond 256 MB.

Is the conservative included governor the one from franco or the standard ?

If its not the francos one can u please merge it ? its an excellent governor for normal use and battery life and i've used it for a long time with hells-core kernel both on mako and hammerhead.

Awesome kernel here and definitely my final choice, keep it up!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ghiri:
I have a question related to Blu_plug. In Kernel Adiutor there are two parameters: Minimum CPU Online and Max Cores Screen Off.

Is it possible to have min cpu online=2 (while screen on) and max cores screen off=1 (while screen off) or the first one will overwrite the second one? Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
No, it's not franco version. Mine has a couple upstream patches and that's about it.

I only work in blu_active which is my choice above anything else.

yes you can use min 2 cores in screen on and 1 core at screen off.

I don't recommend only 1 core at screen off, you will probably have issues waking up the device and others sooner or later.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] goutham kumar muvva:
Thanks a ton for returning back sir!! This kernel is the best kernel for nexus 5 and I hope the development for this device goes on for a very long time!

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tmihai20:
There are no major modifications (none, actually) related to the kernel in the last factory image. I didn't even boot once with the stock kernel. I flashed stock and system images, booted into recovery, flashed blu_spark, cleared Cache and Dalvik-Cache and I booted into it. We are also Stagefright free, I tested with the app from the researchers that discovered the Stagefright bug.

[MENTION=3873953]eng.stk[/MENTION],

#1. The version of conservative you have included is awesome, I like that sampling_rate can be changed (unlike tons of other kernels that have it hardcoded at 200000), and that freq_step and freq_down_step are separate tunables too. If you could keep it updated with upstream that'd be really cool.

#2. Could you do the same for the interactive governor as well? Just keep up to date with upstream patches? Currently the above_hispeed_delay tunable for interactive cannot be modified, which makes it somewhat less useful than it could be.

#3. For blu_active, what does the low_load_down_threshold tunable do? Also, is there a way to modify the duration of input_boost_freq, or disable it entirely?

#4. I think I'm a fan of what you've done with blu_active. It really behaves like a cross between interactive and ondemand, unlike a lot of other custom governors for the N5 which seem to act a lot more like ondemand and favor the max frequency way too much for my liking. Right now I'm using blu_active for a performance-biased governor, conservative for balanced, and hopefully interactive for battery, if you can update it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Arstoien:
For #3, use boostpulse_duration. That controls the length of the input_boost
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] BlazeForth:
[MENTION=3873953]eng.stk[/MENTION] hey bro, need your help. Is there anyway i could improve performance of the kernel. Using blue_active governer, and under heavy usage i feel a lot lag here and there when using multiple apps. I even changed thermal throttling temp to 90°C. But still i have lag. It happens only when heavy multitasking like fb, coc, whatsapp, hike, google+ etc....? ✌

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] republicano:
I had the same problem, I changed the hispeed freq,input freq, high speed load in kernel adiutor, but underclocked to 1.7ghz,basically changed the settings to make it easier to reach a higher frequency without generating more heat.

I had lag when the cores were parked and frequency was low, when I multi tasked or pressed the home button there would be a long delay and lag when in the app draw,

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
low_load_down_threshold is a threshold in which under it , cpu doesn't scale: let's say it's 10, if load is under 10% cpu freq will not scale. Improves low freq jitter.

you can change the input boost duration chaqnging boostpulse_duration. You can disable input boost making input_boost_freq to 300000

Sent from Pure Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
The GCC 4.10 I used is an hacked one, I will try again when Linaro releases true sources.

I think 4.8 is still smoother, probably because most ROMs out there are still GCC 4.7 and GCC 4.8 enabled, needs some teawaking probably.

I had some issues with that test versions on two diferent ROMs.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Primokorn:
You don't need to wipe anything.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] tmihai20:
Only if some apps are behaving strangely you should wipe Dalvik Cache. I never wiped Dalvik Cache when upgrading from an older version of the same kernel. The Dalvik Cache is not even related to the kernel, it has connections with the apps.

I load a gamma profile to make whites a little bit cooler and that's it I do not play with any other setting on kernel adiutor.

Download the stock image from Google, extract to obtain boot.img then flash it in bootloader or use flashify. Then reboot into recovery and flash the kernel. Cleaning cache / Dalvik is not necessary. Good luck!

Franco, if you read this, could you please look at the fact that core 3 and 4 don't obey the minimum time online? Often they just come on and quickly afterwards off, and that could happen rapidly many times. The tunable min_time_cpu_online simply doesn't do anything. It's been like that for a long time.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] wingoku:
Well I have kind of gotten obsessed with performance & single core score. And after watching the A9 chip can achieve 2500 single core score on GeekBench, I just wanted to know where Nexus 5 stands in that dept. Seems like it doesn't even cross 1000 because on my lollipop build, I can get past 930 for single core. Anyway, seems like Marshmallow is just a synthetic update with a finger print recognition & a few features here & there. Nothing revolutionary/new in terms of battery life & performance. I don't know what is Google doing!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akash3656:
Sorry for the incoming off topic post.

There's not much Google can do here as Google does not design an ARM SOC. Every SOC on the Android camp focuses more on number of cores. Geekbench just shows what the hardware is designed for.

Apple is heavily invested in making their cores larger for higher single threaded performance. Then, they slap 2 of this cores in a phone and 3 of them in a tablet due to thermal constraints. This actually matters a lot more in real world use than having 4 or 8 cores on a single phone.

On the other extreme, we have the Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 and various Mediatek chips using slow octacores. For a budget device, they perform poorly and would be better of by having faster dual cores.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mythenmetz:
Your really run a (single core?!?!) benchmark and rate the OS based on the results?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] wingoku:
On hardware end Google can't do much besides setting a set of strict rules for the "Flagships" to design/include SOC that perform good in single core area, because 90% of the apps on Play Store are single core oriented. Multi-core is utilized when doing computational tasks. Google can also provide such apis' or automatically offload code executing on single core, to multiple cores even if the app itself isn't explicitly trying to utilize multiple cores. This way the bottleneck of bad single core performance will be dealt with.

---------- Post added at 11:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 AM ----------

I am not saying Android is bad, I am just saying the hardware & partially software is responsible for the lag & bad battery performance in this ecosystem. I think Google should design their own SOC for the Nexus line so that we can the "REAL" potential of Android in performance and battery life dept!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] marf28101995:
We just need nvida k1 or the next x1 on the phones

https://browser.primatelabs.com/android-benchmarks

;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] akash3656:
About offloading tasks to multiple cores, modern OS try their best to do that. However, the bottleneck is always the programmer's algorithm. Not every algorithm can be accelerated easily with multiple cores. You easily come across many scheduling issues such as data conflicts or race conditions.

I agree that Google should design the SOC. Google is not a hardware company, but they could request Samsung/Qualcomm/Huawei to design something their way if they want. They just choose not too or can't because of costs reasons.
