But an honest answer nonetheless. Thanks franco!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] :
OMG, this is fantastic news. didnt think we'll see another update to Franco kernel on N6.

Thank you.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jacomail95:
I think there's only a small bug, I don't want ZRAM enabled, so I disabled it, but this setting doesn't stick at boot, I have to re-disable every time I power on the device, it's nothing but I think it should be fixed

As I wrote some weeks ago, I had issues with random reboots and with the video recording in a sort of slowmotion (with audio going at full speed) using the r75. Everything solved just flashing r73. Now I flashed r76 and the camera issue seems to have been "fixed" in a strange way. no matter which camera app I start, I got a black screen with the app not responding. Now I'm back on r73 and everything's smooth.

this happends on stock 7.1.1 N6F27M

someone else had these problems?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maksimreder:
No issues here. Running R76 with no issues.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] AmirHRC:
you are the only one who had random reboots and video recording problem every build from r73 to r76 are working good very solid
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] aclegg2011:
[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] is it ok if I bundle your kernel with blissrom?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dudikaz:
he is not the only one. on r75 video recording was broken for everybody or at least for many ppl and it took 10 months to fix it.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] def1003:
Im on nitrogen O from august and for the record when i reflashed elemetnalx 5.22 my led went back to normal
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Perhaps because this kernel is based on LineageOS's kernel where i changed the controll of the LEDs to PWM.

This is the better solution, but your ROM needs to support it, which not all ROMs do.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] MrSmileyJr:
Thank you Franco for giving me another year of this phone. If not for you would have had to buy a new phone. Just purchased your app. Thank you!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] matchesmalonr:
How's your battery holding up? I flashed this kernel with bliss ROM and getting a 1% drain every 2 minutes. Haven't tweaked anything.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] maksimreder:
Let the kernel stable out. Run it for a few days.

I'm getting 1% every 10-15min not tweaking anything.

I easily get 18 hrs.

And SOT of 2hrs.

I would have to agree, the kernel is more active, you definitely notice the battery drain. But it's a cost for smoothness, lag free.

If I use popcorn kernel I get lags, some hangs, but I get 24 hrs of usage and 2.5 hrs of SOT. but again, laggy. (After tweaking the kernel)

So there's a compromise. Have to find what you're comfortable with.

The battery for the Nexus 6 is undersized, we can all agree for the size of the screen and the battery. It's under sized.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] aHToHuo88:
[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] please add TTL support in kernel. Need TTL fix for tethering. Thanks for great kernel!!!?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ardonhs:
Same problem, same Rom

Also I don't have fast charge.. :confused:
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] magnamentis:
same kernel same rom with 0.4%/h battery usage and 7h 30' or higher SOT on full brighness.

if you really think that one single rom or kernel out there would account for such batter drain and especially without the user base clogging each thread with complaints, you are far from reality.

excessive battery drain in single cases is only user space and that is YOU have to troubleshoot, measure usaga find the culprit and

do something about it.

if there would ever be a but with such drain it would be known and in the open.

all that said you both posts are flapsy, unfair towards the devs and misleading and only say a lot about you but nothing about the software in question. battery stats logs or any useful information that would help to narrow things down would have been the minimum.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] fueled:
Which rom and kernel r u on ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] magnamentis:
??????

a) i answered he question as to ROM

b) this kernel obviously, it's the kernel thread and currrent version is r76, hence without further notice it's the one ;)

to stay nice i mention again the i replied to a post that mentioned bliss/fk combo while i'm also using nitro and have no

battery issues there either.

there are many threads from the past but still valid for how to narrow down battery issues. it's really not that hard to begin with,

proper monitoring mostly hints at the culprit and in rare cases one has to clean install in small increments to see when issues start.

that's a bit more more but then is well worth the effort to add to the general learning curve in the process.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] fueled:
Loved your reply :laugh:

Btw fk r76 works well with nitrogen too ?

I really wanna try it.

Replaced the battery today. :D
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] iamkalabaw:
Piggybacking on this post. Same issue here, sir! And I'm using the latest version of your app. RGB adjustments stick but Saturation, Display value, Contrast and Hue doesn't. It works but when you go back and exit the app, it resets to default. Setting it to boot doesn't work either. A fix would be great. Thanks!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] magnamentis:
nitro is currently my daily driver and yes it works flawlessly on that rom, absolutely great combo IMO, best since many months.

should you encounter any issues don't hesitate to ask for help because IMO nitro + fk is the best combo at the moment ;)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] shann0ns:
Currently running NitrogenOS with Franco Kernel how's your SoT?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] magnamentis:
my SOT i 7-8.5h on full brightness but it's not relevant, has very little to do with a kernel on defaults, read here:

http://elementalx.org/the-truth-about-kernels-and-battery-life/

of course you can alter your kernel to achieve higher battery life but then it will come with side-effects if effect should be significant

else there are really much better means to improve battery life than the kernel, i.e. radio management, signal strength which is often related

to the bands, just to name one of many, i was basically working years to get my setup that is applicable more ore less device, rom and kernel independent but solely user-space, apps, settings, radios etc.

as you will see in the linked article, the range kernel side is about 10% if we don't want either performance cuts or battery life cuts, that makes it 5% on each side, hence good as well as bad battery life is not more than 5% due to kernel as long as:

a) the kernel is set to defaults and has no known bugs

b) the kernel is not specifically set to or meant to boos performance or battery life, as mentioned that would have certain significant side-effects.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Najeeb3344:
Is it works on lineage os 15.1 04-12-2018 build?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Feimitsu:
Hi all! Looks like that with this kernel the battery percentage gets more and more screwed up while using the phone. Infact, I've been able to reproduce this issue several time, as after an intense session the phone shuts down at about 30% battery, and rebooting to TRTW, it shows battery at 7%.

This issue didn't happen with Popcorn kernel.

I will replace my battery soon anyway, just wanted to point out this difference between 2 kernels.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] magnamentis:
it's quite a bit annoying how after so long time and so many know facts people still can only jump to conclusions and blame things and people instead of doing the minimum research by searching and reading about their issue before jumping to conclusions and posting anything here.

in short, your battery is old and the device had a voltage issue from day one which shows with shutting down once the battery cannot keep a stable voltage level and starts fluctuating due to coming to the end of it's life cycle.

this has been posted ( and still is almost daily ) in all N6 threads i've ever followed.

buy a new battery, read reviews about quality because there are many old ones floating around and all will be back to normal

kernels do not cause such issues anyways, even without the know battery issues of the N6 you're conclusion would be totally off.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Feimitsu:
I know about the voltage issues of this device, but thanks for reminding me.

I thought I made clear I did an A/B testing (twice) by flashing this and Popcorn's kernel, and the behaviour is not the same. And I also made clear about the discrepancy between the battery percentage in the OS and in TWRP, which doesn't exist in Popcorn's kernel.

Thank you.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I just took a look into his repo, I didn't see anything that could indicate what you're observing.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
r77 is pushed for Oreo and Pie. You can auto-flash with my app here: http://get.franciscofranco.xyz or just get the zip from the OP.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] AmirHRC:
changelog pleassee !!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
It's in the OP.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] BootloopedMillennials:
Thank you so much for continuing to develop this kernel for our old Nexus 6s. I purchased the app awhile back but since I'm running Google-less now on my N6, can't use it. Actually using no kernel manager, just the stock Franco kernel settings. Idle drain is noticeably better than the stock LOS kernel.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dudikaz:
my phone won't boot with r77 on stock 7.1.1. flashing back r76 fixed the problem. also fk manager says r76 is the newest version?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] AmirHRC:
r77 is for Oreo and Pie read the op

I don't understand why don't read the op carefully
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dudikaz:
oh really? why then r76 works perfectly on 7.1.1? and why is r77 available for download under this link https://kernels.franco-lnx.net/Nexus6/7.1.1/anyKernel/ ? why put it there if it's not compatible?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] AmirHRC:
read read read !!!??
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dudikaz:
i did. but explain to me please why are there r76 and r77 releases in 7.1.1 folder if they're not compatible?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] cujo6801:
Deep State....

They're everywhere....

keep it on the low down bro....

But 2 answer your question

it's probably was an accident....
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dudikaz:
yeah a month ago r76 appears in 7.1.1 folder by accident (and works flawlessly on 7.1.1). and now r77 shows up there also by accident? :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ryanallaire:
Do you normally flash stuff without reading the changelog?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Feimitsu:
Link to 8.1/9 changelog seems broken
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] aHToHuo88:
Need TTL support. Great kernel!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dudikaz:
i do. many apps update without showing you the changelog. it's normal.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ryanallaire:
Normal for some apps yes, but not ROMs, kernels, modems or radios..
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] AndrewMmmmmmm:
I did a clean install of Lineage 15.1 (wiped all data with TWRP, then flash with TWRP), then installed OpenGAPPs, then installed FrancoKernel. Both r76 and r77 result in boot loops and I need to reflash the phone to get it working again.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Axel85:
Hi, I share the same rom but with another kernel and want to try franco because i had it on nexus 4 and 5 and bought the premium app. Can you check if in fk manager vibration strenght setting sticks or revert to stock after first aptive feedback is reproduced. I m trying to isolate the problem to know if it reverts due to rom or due to kernel . Even changing the value manualy inside the file ,revert to stock after first vibration
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ryanallaire:
It keeps going back to 81% without a reboot, I change it then exit and re-enter the app and it changes back.. other changes seem to stick though..
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Mcdan333:
No suggestions (yet) but I am having the same problem here.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] SaberJ2X:
Tried booting with the original kernel first then with the franco kernel?

And isnt the lineage kernel different from the aosp compiled one?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
There is no aosp kernel for Oreo so of course the LineageOS kernel is different from aosp.

But to cut a long story short, franco kernel won't work with LineageOS unless it's adapted to the changes we made.

But I guess that will never happen.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ikramii:
So to be precise you know where's the wrong and its franco kernel problem and need some tweaking?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Elektroschmock:
Yes I know, but I wouldn't call it a problem. It's just not compatible.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kevoroid:
Flashed r76 on 7.1.1 and video issue is fixed. awesome!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Hemant3097:
60fps video recording (1080p/720p)

Is it possible for the developers to get 60fps recording enabled through camera driver?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kevoroid:
hey i dunno if this question is related but Franco kernel supports/enabled wireless charging, correct? (or its totally unrelated?!)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Ando-bot:
Hi all! I just got the Franco Kernel app - dumb :D question - how do I delete a per app performance profile? I called it by the App name (Chrome) and didn't realise I could apply it to other apps. So I want to call it something else now.

Thanks Franco for building this kernel and the app!

EDIT: all good found the option in the advance mode.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Pushed r78 rebased on the latest LineageOS 16.0 sources. It won't work on < Pie so there's that.

Get it from https://francokernel.app

Also check out my app's latest massive update https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.franco.kernel
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] wavedashdoc:
Actually, [MENTION=3383960]Elektroschmock[/MENTION] has said that his Pie (Lineage 16.0 Kernel commits) will work on Oreo. However, because we didn't/don't have proper blob support from google, different devs used different device trees during Oreo ROM development, so your mileage may vary.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ardonhs:
Not working with Dirty unicorns Pie
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Nautilus74:
R78 don't seem works on last Nitrogen (Pie)....

...r76 and r77 works , even if with some reboot.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Axel85:
I'm running it right now in nitrogen os pie
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Nautilus74:
So I must to try clean install...
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] psychoela:
you mean not working it not boot right? If do u using magisk, some module maybe the cause, such as terminalmod.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Nautilus74:
don't boot right. I use Magisk. What can I do?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] psychoela:
Try disabled all module
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Axel85:
I have a question that is bothering me from some months if not years (same issue on nougat {i skipped oreo}) . Why when you activate automatic high brightness mode in the app it's working perfectly, but then, after some minutes it stop working? If you reopen fk app it starts to work again.

I tried to systemize the fk app in the priv folder , and it's also in the battery optimization exclusions but the result is the same
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] githyanki:
It is automatic outdoor mode switching it off. Used to be able to set it to always outdoor mode in AICP, but that setting has not come to pie yet. Check with your ROM developer for that.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Axel85:
It seems to work with the app automatic high brightness mode by flar2 . This app has a notification that it's always showed , and I think this is the reason the function still works even after many hours .
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Vshu:
Hello all,

Just a silly que..

So N6 should be rooted for installation on Francokernel.

Now after I flash the kernel, & battery life is extended...

Can I unroot my phone? Or Do I need to keep the root?

Noob question.:eek: but want to try , so just confirming ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] ryanallaire:
You have to be rooted
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] runekock:
Actually, I believe you can run the kernel workout root. Even flash it from twrp without root. But you'll be unable to change any kernel setting. And then what's the point? It's the settings that make FrancoKernel fun.

Better to root with Magisk and then use Magisk hide to hide root from those apps that care. Generally, Magisk makes _more_ apps run than unrooted with anything custom flashed.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Vshu:
Thank you for this [MENTION=4610285]runekock[/MENTION], I will try this soon

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Superior Sandbox:
Any reason it throttles my CPU to 1.9Ghz around and under 50% battery?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] chuckiler:
Hey guys... i undervolted using the FKM app and then now i can't get the screen to turn on...

if i reboot it is fine till the settings are applied(i think) how do i reset FKM/prevent it from applying the settings on startup?

i already tried re flashing and wiping caches etc... it was fine till i opened the app to change the settings. it got applied again... and i can't turn my screen on..

any Suggestions?

I was/am on Pixeldust default kernel.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dark2099:
Via twrp file manager, delete the app. Or if it doesn't come pre-rooted, dirty flash Pixeldust and uninstall FKM. Reflash root and kernel, reinstall FKM.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] 4L3xN3t:
Hi all!

I have a question, quoting from the first post of the thread.

"Builds (starting with r65 up to r75) are Android 7.1.1 Nougat March 2017 security patchset, or newer, only.

Builds starting with r76 up to r77 are for Android Oreo and Pie custom roms."

Now, I'm on 7.1.1 with october 2017 security patch. Why the francokernel app makes me flash r76 kernel? shouldn't it give me no other kernel than the r75?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] fueled:
can anyone help me out here . i cant seem to find hotplug options in the franco kernel manager.

when iam charging fk r78 kernel disables 2 cores. and it stays that way whole day unless i go inside the manager and manually turn them back on.

Any chance of Android 10 kernel?

Thanks!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nnirvana:
Would be great if upgraded for an Android 10 kernel. Currently using the CrDroid 6.6(10.0) ROM, and everything is fine except the battery. This kernel is best for battery saving.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] fueled:
I think its your battery.

Iam on crdroid too but iam very happy with everything.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Rushing:
My response

#76 works for 7.1.1 I noticed this was the latest for 7.1.1 despite the OP stating #75 was the last for 7.1.1

I flashed and all is perfect. I think a typo or mistake not sure but 76 is fine for 7.1.1 stock build I flashed it today and so far am very pleased. Thank you Franco!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Ando-bot:
Is francokernel.app the place to download the latest kernels? Looks like the page is down. I'm after r76, I'm on stock 7.1.1 with Magisk. I've also got the FKM app but i don't think it updates the kernel via the app so i think i still need to download r76.

Thanks!

just purchased the app from playstore.

thanx for working your magic on n6.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Stock value is 127, but I've limited it to 100 for now on the Kernel. I'll open up to 127.

ipv6 thing is just broken, I'm going to remove it. It reverts to the default state every time we change networks (Kernel thingy). No point in having it on the app, it just confuses users. double tap to wake reverts on boot? Hmm, I'll check. Don't reboot so often :p

Uh? FKU doesn't overwrite anything unless you set it to override.

What? No one said you need to automate with tasker... it's simply an option, you automate or not, your choice...

What?

There are no recommended settings, that's a whole lot of crap. It pains me when I see other threads with "RECOMMENDED SETTINGS FOR BATTERYS". Everyone has different usage, there isn't a 100% foolproof settings because there are just too many variables that can affect your power usage. I ship the Kernel with my idea of a balanced set of settings, the same that I use on my phone. It's not like it's an universal law for the best settings, just my opinion for a balanced usage. We have a lot of options, I suggest you to play with 'em and decide for yourself what fits your goal and your usage.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Snit91:
i meant that the dt2w feature you provided responses better to the double tap then the app (dt2w enabler) before your feature arrived...

[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dems86:
Curious if you've considered using the dt2w method used in Elem/LK by any chance? The activated stock method seems to be really hit or miss, it often requires more than two taps to activate...just very unresponsive a decent percentage of the time.

Obviously it isn't a deal breaker but I was just wondering, as the other method seemed to work markedly better when I tested it out.

Also, thanks for the recent update to FKU, it just keeps getting better ?
