I dont have to tweak the kernel, I use pne mode maybe the app should detect that an not show piwersuspend option. That switch only works for user mode option.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] carlese:
I don't know anything about this.. Maybe you should advise the dev like you did before :) great job you 2!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
You must be new to Android.

There's no lag, but microstutters. That's just the way variable content apps behave in Android (specially multimedia ones), it isn't a kernel thing.

G+ improved alot lately, tapatalk is as it always was, facebook is between the two.

We can improve stuff, but there isn't a cure. You will notice that everything else in UI effects, scrolling, games etc are butter smooth.

In ART for instance, things are much better on this problematic apps. IN stock odexed and with stock kernel ou see efects a lot less because of odex optimizations and MP Decision is always using lot's of power ( and thus battery is going bye bye).

Maybe next Android version will be better :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ironjon:
Hopefully Mr.Google listened to you :good: :D ;)

Excited for this "L" version :D
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] bobby_sucker:
i'm not:D

why then, kernels act differently?

yep, i agree, with ART those apps are better, but still remain these slutters as you call em

let's hope

Thx for clarification, anyway Eng.stk:highfive:
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
I already said why... different hotplugs for one.

MP Decision kernels are smooth but very unefficient.

MP Decision is always using hi freqs, so you see less micro stutters in those apps. But they are there nevertheless.

ROM changes are the main plus to fix this issues, high optimized ROMs are much smoother that standard ones

If you are not new to android you already should know this. And Google is your friend.

I don't know if it's only me but the minimum level of screen brightness with dimmer activated is too low that the screen starts blinking.

I've change it from 3 to 5 and now it's good

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] alen1901:
Change your GPU and CPU governors to ondemand, you will get little less battery but performance is awesome. Tapatalk and Facebook will stutter, not sure about g+, its not kernels fault, that are "bad" coded apps, i would say because of heavy codes.

EDIT: like [MENTION=3873953]eng.stk[/MENTION] said, on stock kernel there is MP decision which holds CPU at high clocks to make smoother experiance to user costing it a battery life.

No blinks here, it just dimms normally. Which ROM you're on?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] marf28101995:
PA 4.4 final version.. But it could be caused by the undervolting I did

But the default value in the other Kernels is 5 but it's good I can manually change it, thanks

Back then when Franco introduced the backlight dimmer in his kernel, there were many who had the problem of their displays blinking too, when the min brightness was set too low. Didn't affect everyone, seems to be different for each panel. That was before there was a switch to toggle the dimmer on/off.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
And with 4 do you have blinks also?

Yeah I was thinking that, different panels, different behavior on the limit.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] marf28101995:
No I don't have with 4 but I still I think that's too low but it's your kernel I can change it manually thanks :)

I am testing and I like 4 the most, going to put manual level 4 too.

Yes I think it's the best to do anyway prepare yourself for the Google I/O :D

PS being test your kernel for long time and watching the thread, I've to say that you've the best aosp kernel in terms of battery/ performance.. And the beta 179 is great

I've been doing some testing lately and probably will remove powersuspend later on.

I think native suspend/resume on msm works better, powersuspend has deprecated code.

I added mainly because of Dyn Fsync, wich I will remove also, I don't get any noticiable improvements over fsync on (will bring back fsync on/off for thise who want it)

Guys UKM v2.6 is morey stable now, 99% compatible with Code_Blue.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] spirit1:
I'm happy to hear that. So we can expect Code_blue development for L very soon ;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
From my point of view, it's not stable for daily use yet, has some anoying bugs on simple things. I just multirom it to check out what Google was talking about.

Probably google will release some OTAs until final release with improvements.

But hey, this is just to show kernel testing, I don't want this to be a L thread, there's plenty of info there related specially to L.

Well this was just a fun try, I will not loose too much time to it.

Because GCC 4.9 is mainline in Linaro, so it's stable.

GCC 4.10 is not oficial in Linaro, it's still experimental

@eng.stk we have to use fstrim command with this kernel? I see somewhere that with Android 4.4.4 is unusefull because it's implemented in the rom. What do you think about it?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] eng.stk:
Well you can use manual fstrim, but since Android 4.3 it's already builtin.

I haven't noticed improvements with script fstrim on boot for instance, that's why I removed it.

It's not that simple... I ported that to my private builds awhile ago, it's too much commits to mdss and other stuff, rewriting video and other subsystems. Just ain't worth it the trouble.

It's too much overhead and I didn't see any improvements to be fair. Screen and GPU and even CPUS uses little power compared to backlight and radios.

Jush flash a stock zip from forum, it will not even rebuild cache if you don't format it.

It's fine.

And because you changed kernel it's a kernel problem?

Tapatalk is everything but stable, they have been launching quite updates in the last weeks. Probably you had an app crash.

On the vesion before latest I lost the make forum read feature and auto read when entering some thread (they stayed unread after read lol)

Also on top of that, if you use xposed expect unwanted behaviours sometimes, it happens.

But as there is no logs, for me that issue you had never happened...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ballmead:
Lol, looks like I've been told.

Sorry if I seemed to be blaming the kernel but I've never had that happen before and I had only changed to r183 last night.
