Hey guys, tried setting boostpulse on franco-graphite and still no go. It actually made it worse. All 4 cores were stuck at max :( I was using trickster though. Does trickster cause problems?

Also. Are you guys noticing any speaker issues? Any crackling or anything at full volume with franco-graphite?

And finally. Does the cm829 flashable zip work with newer CM nightlies?

Thanks guys!
[One (M8) Android Development] dandan2980:
Get rid of trickster post a screeny of your interactive gov settings using kernel tweaker and also did you rename mpdecision

I have never had such behavior with this kernel

---------- Post added at 04:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:14 PM ----------

For your speakers this is not the kernel this is Aosp In general has super load speaker volume you need to use app such as V4A or the DSP use bass reducer eq also V4A has gain control
[One (M8) Android Development] Rauch:
Ah ****. That's right. Forgot everything is removed at the moment and is nothing but a bare kernel.

I believe I'm going to recompile with OC steps when I get home this evening. Hit 44k @ 2.2ghz. Potential 50k is I can get it stable at 3ghz... Otherwise 2.8ghz may be my best option.
[One (M8) Android Development] llsantiago:
There are some people on Nexus 5 getting 46k just at 2.2/2.2, and OPO is getting 50k at 2.5Ghz, I think that 3.0 will overheat so fast and shutdown.

Also we miss some points at Runtime cause OPO comes with nice dalvik patches and most of the Nexus 5 Rom´s work with dalvik from others devices, before CM updates i was able to use OPO dalvik and was getting 3500 Runtime points, but now when I flash it gives me a bootloop, without it I´m just getting 2300 in Runtime.

Obs: Every bionic works fine, LG G3 is the best one for me, increase the scores a bit!

[One (M8) Android Development] arcadia2uk:
I have used this kernel on the DirtyUnicorn stable 08/28, along with FauxClock and FauxSound over the last 3- 4 days. Everything, has been running very smooth, the battery life is quite OK, and a very impressive earphone sound, the main reason why I tried the kernel in the first place. In short I'm very satisfied with the result.

For the FauxClock app, I used the settings here. I don't know if they are optimized for the m8, but it works fine for me at the moment.

I really appreciate your work.
[One (M8) Android Development] TheBurgh:
Does anyone know if it is recommended to disable DSP when using faux sound? I am running graphite.img
[One (M8) Android Development] Rauch:
The G3 bionic doesn't seem to do much for me in terms of scores... I never actually looked into modifying those to increase performance... Might be something to look into.

Of course the M8 doesn't get very much attention... Might have to jump ship to something else soon..
[One (M8) Android Development] llsantiago:
Yes, the G3 Bionic just helps with ~300 points... If you got the dalvik patches to work, please notify me

Just to let everyone know the Slim.7.6 flashables will work fine with Weekly 7.8, the files are identical :)
[One (M8) Android Development] blooflowers:
Hey Paul, is it possible to build a flashable zip for rqstats for CM11? Or is there a tutorial on how to make one?

Also, does it matter on the nightly date for CM?

I ran franco2-graphite and I must say, it's great. My phone seems to play well with rqstats more though. Not sure what it is but my phone loves rqstats. Is rqstats like fluxi2? Is one better than the other?
[One (M8) Android Development] paulg1981:
Sure no problem, I just uploaded a flashable rqstats for CM 8.31 nightly. Would have done the latest (9/1) but the file was not found on their server.

To answer your other question, unless there are major kernel or ramdisk changes for CM the flashables should work on them.
[One (M8) Android Development] dickenam:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm relatively certain that rq and fluxi2 are similar. They both utilize msm_hotplug and I think fluxi2 is the same kernel as rq but with Fluxi's interactive gov settings.

I'm having a hard time discerning what, exactly, I'm running on mine too. I will say that stalking xbox's Github has helped :good:
[One (M8) Android Development] xboxfanj:
Roughly the same. Rqstats enables mpdecision and the runqueue_stats driver in kernel so that the powerHAL functions. Other than that, I think they're the same.

Ringtones not sticking

Hey I know I could be crazy but it seems that it only happened after I started flashing the different flavors of this great kernel. I keep losing my custom ringtones and even ChompSMS text notification. Even my default ringtone keeps getting reset to some other ringtone. I keep all of my ringtones that I normally use on my extsdcard. Any one else with similar?
[One (M8) Android Development] k5t4j5:
Time for a clean flash. Idk if that's the right fix, but it happened to me as well and after a clean flash of my current rom, all was normal.
[One (M8) Android Development] paulg1981:
I flashed franco2-graphite on SlimRoms weekly 7.8 and it is ridiculously smooth! I will report on battery after a full day tomorrow.

Hopefully you don't mind Xboxfanj, I noticed someone mentioned using one of these kernels with Dirty Unicorns recently. That's my DD, been messing around some, built a pretty nice setup. Here's the very latest DU, with franco2graphite and OnePlus dalvik and Bionic for anyone wanting to try http://192.99.37.212/k5t4j5/M8/DU_9-3_F2graph_1+1DB.zip
[One (M8) Android Development] dandan2980:
Only scheduler I use is deadline it combos very nicely with interactive governor
[One (M8) Android Development] k5t4j5:
Same here. Always gives the best results IMO.
[One (M8) Android Development] dandan2980:
Do you leave it default settings or do you use your own custom ones??? Here is what I use

I thought the OPO Dalvik wasn't compatible with CAF based roms? ?

---------- Post added at 06:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:05 PM ----------

Nothing in reference to this quote, but AnyKernal on savoca's github... Removes the need for ramdisk changes. Have to manually set gov settings with a script, but will provide much better compatibility. I just haven't the time right now.

I am curious about some other changes you made to slim's init.qcom.rc other than just changing governor defaults. Mind explaining?
[One (M8) Android Development] k5t4j5:
There's 2 sets of dalvik, the regular, and one for roms with a commit for speeding file systems at boot. DU has that commit, so I used the required one. May revert that commit and try a few different dalviks sometime though.
[One (M8) Android Development] llsantiago:
I tried the OPO dalvik on PA, but it doesn´t work even if i delete the install.d , before some updates it was working well, is there anything to do?

[One (M8) Android Development] llsantiago:
Wow, thanks man, I think that I missed this one cause was testing on Antutu, but now I got a big difference in quadrant, look at these CPU scores:

Think that it is good for everyone. Thanks one more time!
[One (M8) Android Development] dandan2980:
Do these actually make the device smoother and is at the cost of battery life??? Cause I don't like flashing things that aren't really meant for my device. This device is smoking fast as it is. If all this does is boost up some benchmark scores then what is the point???

Just curious to why y'all flash these on your device
[One (M8) Android Development] llsantiago:
I´m just able to see a little better multitasking performance, can´t see any downside of flashing these patches, also they are made by qualcoom for our processor, for example, Sense comes with it.
[One (M8) Android Development] k5t4j5:
I haven't noticed a huge difference with this particular dalvik, and haven't ran any test yet. The more I run it though, it sorta seems smoother, hard to tell though right now. Other dalviks may be more noticeable. I tried it just to try. Flashing moto dalvik on my LG Optimus G showed noticeable improvements in some cases so I figured what the hell.
[One (M8) Android Development] xboxfanj:
We still need to change ramdisk depending on the kernel. Kernels with msm hotplug require a couple lines for different settings. Others require mpdecision to be disabled. And others yet change interactive governor settings.

In other news: new kernel image: EDIT: Not so fast...

This one contains the hotplug driver (blu_plug) and governor (blu_active) from eng.stk's Code Blue kernel for the Nexus 5.
[One (M8) Android Development] dandan2980:
Interesting I'll run this tomorrow. Does this require disabling mpdecision?
[One (M8) Android Development] xboxfanj:
Hard to say. May just be made to increase benchmarks. Could also just be runtime optimizations that Qualcomm did not want to give the source out for. It's the same regardless of the device though. Qualcomm ships the libqc-dalvik.a static library in their BSP (Board Support Package), which also contains all source code they give to manufacturers. Manufacturers build CAF with the BSP as well as any of their own changes. In other words, the dalvik static library itself is identical to the file given to manufacturers of any Qualcomm device of around the same time and CAF branch.

It boots and runs fine, but some of the governor settings are a bit off. Next one is coming up soon. I also added the newest CPU boost commits. Should probably do another build soon with auto hotplug and franco interactive, since there's a lot of new stuff here and we need to have images that can easily be compared (hotplug and governor as only independent variables).

You have to flash the image with flashify or a similar app. Or thru fast boot and you will also have to flash SuperSu cause thus will break your root.

Would you recommend running this with the ramdisk it comes with? Or repacking with native ram disk, from slim for example
[One (M8) Android Development] k5t4j5:
I don't know if it's needed by specific roms or something else, but I've flashed every image in here without messing with ramdisk and everything worked fine. Am I missing something?
[One (M8) Android Development] Shamestick:
Ive just been using the native ram disks to keep native su intact, but in the code blu thread it was saying stuff about custom ram disks so I was wondering if I should keep that instead of replacing with slims

[One (M8) Android Development] juancaperez2000:
In N5, CodeBlue, Franco got different ramdisk even if you want to change kernel you need to dirtyflash your rom before flash the new kernel.
[One (M8) Android Development] xboxfanj:
Always use the init.qcom.rc from me. That's the only thing I ever change. The rest can be from any other ROM.

[One (M8) Android Development] phoenix2217:
PAC doesn't like any custom kernels. Was like that when I had my s3 too

It's because framework-pac.jar needs to be added to the BOOTCLASSPATH. ;)

[One (M8) Android Development] SeanHacker:
Yeah that could be one way i think. Not sure as I've never done it that way. Or directly in ramdisk in the init.environ.rc.

EDIT: If you're going to go the build route it works. Just add framework-pac: and you're good. Otherwise if you're compiling outside of your source dir you can just add it to Ramdisk. ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] xboxfanj:
How have you done it? init.environ.rc doesn't exist in the source fully, it's an in file that uses the bootclasspath from build to create the .rc.
[One (M8) Android Development] SeanHacker:
When I compile outside of my source (ROM) dir I use my own Ramdisk. The environ.rc is there and that's where I add it. Not sure if you noticed my last edit, but adding it to build works just fine too. :)

Can I ask what is the benefit of the Motorola parts of this kernel.

What advancements do they bring over htc's implementation?
[One (M8) Android Development] xboxfanj:
Nothing Motorola replaced anything of HTC's. They just have some pretty good memory tweaks that should help us run a bit faster and more efficiently, especially their memutils, which is memcpy made for Krait rather than the crappy generic ARM stuff that's 10 years old. And I use Nvidia's CPUQuiet because mpdecision is too aggressive and not tuneable, so battery life is pretty awful and heat production is high as well.
