Yeah, I can't see any reason the kernel would be the direct cause :)

But I've had msm_hsic wakelock disabled since Franco added that feature. And I've seen no I'll effects since doing so. Until I flashed r23 and then I started seeing No Signal, tried pulling sim, manually searching for networks, rebooting. The only thing that fixed it was going to r22, instantly got my usual 3/4 bars back. Them went onto r24/r25 - saw it once on one of them, on r26 currently, in yet to see it :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] schizophrenia:
You have the exact case as mine. let's see if any other have the same problem.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jodvova:
I had this problem on r24. When the phone loses the signal it never reacquires it back, only reboot helps. Franco said it was due to some patches that shouldn't have been merged, so he released r25.

I haven't tried r25 yet, but never had this issue on r23.

I have same wake lock disabled, although someone said here there is no point in it if you are on 5.1, google fixed it.

I have same configuration as you as well, i. e. stock only.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] schizophrenia:
Thanks. I am on r25 right now and same situation and yes when it loses signal it never comes back until after a reboot.

I tried to enable the msm_hsic_host wakelock again and noticed very frequent wakelocks caused by it so I dont think google actually fixed it .... so say this can't be fixed at all
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jodvova:
So looks like r25 has the same problem as r24.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] paychex:
Does it really need to be explained? If it can not wake the phone it can't perform any of its functions

---------- Post added at 07:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:23 AM ----------

They all do the exact same thing

---------- Post added at 07:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:24 AM ----------

Well that helps a lot. You're using an out of date version. You're not helping anyone

---------- Post added at 07:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 AM ----------

Wow. I lost my signal and re-enabling a kernel wakelock fixed it but I don't want to do that. Franco never should have gone down that road
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jodvova:
what's your problem, can't read well ?

I said I had exactly the same problem on r24 and hasn't yet tried r25. The guy said he had the same problem on r25. I'm not going to use r25 then.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I don't remember messing with anything that touches the modem on recent versions, but'll double check.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] GregNexus:
Yesterday i had the same problem, dont know if it was with r24 or r25.

After the signal loss, the battery was draining so fast. From 50% to 0% in 2 hours. This never happend to me ever.

And for the test build: someone said the new merges for the better idle are pretty worse when the battery is below 40%. Are there other people with this problem too?

I'm still above the 40% percent so i cant say anything about it.

EDIT: Regarding the battery life in standby:

This night i was loosing 3 or 4 percent in 8 Hours with mobile data on r26, awesome values. But why i am loosing more on wifi? (On older releases, even with all WLAN wakelocks disabled..)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
No changes on Wifi drivers what so ever.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Johnny424:
lol [MENTION=5388274]paychex[/MENTION] your a real bundle of joy bro, go eat a chocolate easter bunny and tone down your attitude before you scare francos users away from asking basic questions
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] schizophrenia:
just to clarify, i am not saying the problem came from the kernel. That's why I asked if anyone else has the same problem as I am not sure.

don't take me wrong. :o
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stas333:
All this talk about r26, now I can't wait for it.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidkevlar:
Its posted a few pages back so u can enjoy it now.

To those saying draining faster after 40%, I am not seeing that. I'm already 4+ hours SOT and still going strong. And phone still sleeping like a baby.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stas333:
i have seen it. im waiting for the official release
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] :
See page #521
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stas333:
waiting for the official one
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] paychex:
don't need your advice... bro
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Johnny424:
lol yeah I figured that'd be your response
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jodvova:
What's your screen brightness set at ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] rbedell:
He means official=recovery flashable. He doesn't know how to push that with the computer.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mgear356:
i also lost signal since last 2-3 releases.. disabled msm_hsic_host wakelock since it was implemented and no issues..
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] russlowe73:
Image can be flashed with FKU.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stas333:
i do, but its everything is on my spare laptop which is in storage, so i dont want to go looking for it just to flash a file.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidkevlar:
OK...I retract my previous statement about draining faster after 40%. But I'm not sure this is a Franco issue or all kernel issue as its not something I was paying attention for before. This is by far best kernel though. Never got this much SOT and up time. Thank you Franco!!!!!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] rbedell:
The Franco kernel updater
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] schizophrenia:
sounds like I am not the only one then. hmm
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] koboltzz:
Indeed the best kernel for me. Would be nice, if Franco can deactivate the 5.1 <40% battery behaviour, so his idle routine from 100 to 60% can go on.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidkevlar:
I'm just taking a shot in the dark since I'm not a dev...but it reminds me of a car gas tank...once over 60% used, its not the same...my idle is still the same...just not as much power left..if that makes sense
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] tiernan22:
My issue with the last couple of releases is that it defaults to H instead of LTE. LTE is pretty spotty and the data signal is weak. It has a hell of time connecting when I toggle wifi off and it has to transition to data. I played with APNs, etc. It was exacerbated by FK. I'm on ATT and DU 5.1.

Clean wipes didn't resolve my issue. I ended up going back to stock. That fixed it. I went back to DU and it worked. I tried flashing FK and the issue came back. Then I clean flashed DU again and the data issue went away again. Still, I can't really see how it's a kernel issue.

Regardless, I love FK.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yes seen a couple others with this, I'm gonna take a deeper look maybe I merged something by mistake on recent releases. Thanks & sorry.

What? It's not my idle routine, it's the standard idle code path on all Kernels. It goes through many systems, generic arm drivers/specific arch drivers, power management, cpuidle, scheduler... it's VERY complex, it's generic and agnostic through the entire device regardless of the battery level...
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] koboltzz:
I am no dev also. But the '% battery lost per hour' is significantly higher after passing 40%. On Stock 5.0 and 5.1 it is not the case and on my car also ;)

For sure the drain graph is not gradually, but a tad of.

[MENTION=470754]Franco[/MENTION]: Sorry, not

your

idle routine. I was just trying to express my enthusiasm for

your

kernel.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I cannot really believe that battery goes away faster on lower battery percentage, specially since Google/Motorola cap CPU/GPU to a lower value. Seems just coincidence, I never had anything like that happen.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidkevlar:
Whatever magic you put into this test kernel, plz don't change. I'm at 6 hours SOT and still got 10% left. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jodvova:
You're on quite low brightness. That's perfectly normal.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidkevlar:
Might be, but I've had the same setting for all kernels and never come close to this.

I must be getting old cuz anything brighter and I need shades on ;) lol
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I'm curious, what's your average screen on time before r26?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidkevlar:
3...4 tops. Always same ROM same apps. I don't use kernel apps to make changes...tried and never made a difference
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Wow! That's interesting indeed! Not surprising though :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidkevlar:
The sleep on this is what has improved it for me. I was avg'ing 25-35% wake locks...this kernel...4-6%.

Thank u again
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
The difference is on the screen on time, wakelocks play no part on that ;)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stas333:
cool. when are you going to post the official r26?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidkevlar:
True... But before I would be looking for charger since it would drain pretty bad while sleeping .....thank u again.

Are you seeing results like this too? Or am I the chosen one?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I don't know yet, sorry.

I don't have values to share, I haven't used the N6 too much the last few days and it's almost always on the charger through my computer.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jodvova:
Have you switched to iPhone completely ?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Nope, but I can't carry two devices at the same time.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Paddybecks87:
Has anybody else noticed that the max. frequency significantly drops down to almost 1Ghz when taking (HDR) pictures? Is this intended behavior?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrgwap:
Lol

---------- Post added at 09:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:56 PM ----------

Hey what phone do u use as ur daily phone?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jodvova:
N6, but I will dump it as soon as LG G4 comes out. N6 is great but its screen sucks ass.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrgwap:
I know i look at my note 4 and im like damn the screen is beautiful On it but pure Android keeps me with the n6 lol
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] joeb3786:
I'm on r25 and experienced this issue today for the first time - i've used r21-23, and r25 since it was released. I was in literally the same place yesterday as I was today, doing the same things (mostly eating ham and candy) but I just happened to pull my phone out and notice no signal, and only a reboot brought it back. What i did notice is that a) toggling into and then out of airplane mode does not seem to recreate the issue and b) the toggle in the drop-down just said 'no service' as it would in airplane mode (without the slash thru the actual icon) but did not say that it was searching for service...i could be wrong but it seems that normally the toggle will say 'searching for service' when it is without and is trying to reacquire a signal. i will also add that i went on an anti-wakelock crusade this morning and disabled anything that had to do with 'Fit' or 'Wearable' and this caused play music to whine constantly in my notifications, so i greenified that as well. since the signal lockup deal i've re-enabled and un-greenified anything that i had changed this morning to see if any of those could have been the issue...otherwise i'm on stock LMY47D with sprint service. i hope this info is of at least some use to someone.

and happy easter.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] CRXed:
A little bit of feedback on the app:

1) Icons in this page flash when you scroll, looks like a bug

2) small error
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
The achievements page is Google's code, I don't control that part!

I'll fix that typo, thanks.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidkevlar:
After running r26...I just had to buy your app. I know its not much, but just wanted to say thanks. Hope your easter is going well and you're able to relax.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] 6-speed:
R26 test IMG is running amazing. I've never had this phone sleep as good as it does currently. I'm almost 12hrs from the time it came off the charger and I'm at 77%. Not much screen time because we've been running around town doing easter stuff. Tomorrow will be a better test at work where I don't get very good signal.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] lainemac:
Hey Franco, does the idle change you talked about in the 26 test build only work on conservative governor? Or does it work regardless of governor?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
It's agnostic to anything you do on your phone, it's part of the Kernel's core.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] C00lBeanz:
Does anyone have the problem on r24, r25, or r26 where the max speed for the kernel is always stuck on 2200 or 1728 ghz? I always change it but it always resets back to one of these two when I leave the app...
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] lainemac:
Is your battery low?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidkevlar:
I did not see this. Even getting down to 5%. But I left everything default minus disabling a few wakelocks and charging light.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] bill3508:
What was the minimum rbg value in screen color settings? I hit the slider and don't know what it was.

Thanks
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
It's not a problem, it's how it's designed by Google on 5.1 update. 40% it goes down to 2.2GHz, 20% goes down to 1.7GHz.

0.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] bill3508:
Trying r26, and bought your app also. Very nice. Like the built in color profiles. Thanks.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] C00lBeanz:
Is there any way to disable that? Thanks.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Rootuser3.0:
I'm suffering from a wake bug the new update through the app. Never had that issue before.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Unrivalled:
Bought your app a few minutes ago franco. Guess it is time to finally support you after all your hardwork.

Btw, I cant seem to enable double tap to wake in your kernel setting. I tried rebooting but no luck. Im on Chroma latest version.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dtroup64:
No.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
There's a ugly hack that allows to disable that, but I'm not sure I want to merge it. There might be a reason those guys from Goolgle/Motorola added it, they know what they're doing. I'm still debating.

?

Thanks!

Can't seem to enable? I can... care to elaborate a little?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Guys test this boot.img and try to reproduce that "no signal, need to reboot" behavior that some of you were noticing since r23 I believe. Thanks.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Unrivalled:
I meant I can enable it but dt2w is not working. I tried rebooting. But it is still not working.

Sorry for confusion! English is not my mother tongue. :D
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Are you sure it's not working? It's pretty finicky, but it should work sometimes.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Paddybecks87:
[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION],

I've been testing the modification to change the throttling behavior extensively over the last few days. There are two things I do notice. On the one hand , the hack does indeed work (even when changing the percantages when to toggle and the according max. frequencies). On the other hand, there is a downside; I don't know if this applies solely to me or if there are other variables that come into play. When you modify the thermal.config file, the camera often force-closes (when taking HDR-pictues and 4K-videos) and the phone immediately shuts down.

Could this be/is this directly related to the modified thermal.config file? If so, you should rather not implement it in future releases. As it seems, this negative behavior does not occur when using an untouched thermal.config file. Any response would be appreciated. Thanks.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Good info but I have absolutely no idea.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] nexusmaniac:
Gonna flash this after finishing this message.

But just FYI, I am one of the people who noticed that signal weirdness thing with r23. Been on r26 since you posted it and not seen any signal problems
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Paddybecks87:
[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION],

okay. I'll give it a few more shots though. It's probably not a stable mod, especially people who rely on their camera heavily shouldn't do this at all.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] holeindalip:
I haven't seen any issues with taking HDR or 4k videos on the test kernel, are you on stock or custom rom
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Paddybecks87:
[MENTION=3392054]holeindalip[/MENTION],

my post didn't refer to camera-issues on Franco's kernel; it was about camera-app instabilities that are caused by the modification of the thermal.config file.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] :
No signal drops for me, no missed calls as far as I know.. I've been on r26 since you dropped boot image.. Was one Cleancore now Optipop rom.. Battery has been really good. :D
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] TR2N:
I'm am running the first r26 test image since drop and it runs without one issue. What did you Franco??
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Stigga:
Can't wait for R26, sounds like a big bump in battery life.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] TR2N:
Just try the test kernel! :)
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] droidkevlar:
Seen you post a few times about waiting to test it. Is there a reason why you havent flashed it? If you arent near a computer and cant do fastboot, you can flash it via twrp still. You would just flash image instead of zip.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Stigga:
Thanks for the reply. This is my first android device and I am still a noob . I don't fully get how flashing via twrp works. I need to read up on it.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Welcome to Android :) I suggest you try Flashify (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgollner.flashify&hl=en) from my friend [MENTION=4446775]cgollner[/MENTION] - it's as easy as it gets just drop the boot.img on your sdcard or cloud storage, and voilá.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stas333:
i used the twrp, super easy
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] dark2099:
"the twrp" love it.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] noneabove:
Weirdly I kept getting an error with flashify that it couldn't open the boot.img but your app was able to auto-flash it with no problems.. *shrug*
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] TR2N:
You can also flash it with the FKU app?!!??
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] C00lBeanz:
How ugly are we talking here?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] noneabove:
Yup, just go to the file manager, find the boot.img, click it, hit auto-flash
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jodvova:
[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION], maybe this has already been asked many times, but why don't you use gcc49 with linaro toolchain for building the kernel?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] noneabove:
I don't know if this is still the issue but I know in the past there was an issue with the toolchain causing a chance of instability. It had a chance of increasing the size of some objects to exceed the CPUs cache size which would cause the process to crash resulting in a random reboot. I don't know if any of these issues have been fixed or addressed with workarounds, but I also don't know if there is enough benefit to be gained from the potential downsides.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
It's pretty pointless and using the same as Google it's just one less variable for me to take into consideration when something goes wrong.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] mrgwap:
I just wanted to say to u sir that u have a beautiful app. I wish other devs like Facebook and **** would change the color scheme of the navigation bar and status bar like u do smh its a shame they don't it makes there app look so ugly
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stas333:
Franco,

whats the difference between the 2 r26 test kernels? i see one is from sat and the other one is from today.

Thanks
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] JNewms:
Just read the post he made when he released it....
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] Prack:
Any chance the widget will be updated to dark theme as well?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stas333:
"Guys test this boot.img and try to reproduce that "no signal, need to reboot" behavior that some of you were noticing since r23 I believe. Thanks. "

that doesnt answer my question
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] JNewms:
If you want more detail, just check out latest merges on his git
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] kingston73:
I just want to verify, this is r26? Even though it's just named boot. Img
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I reverted a patch!
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Aye.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yes, completely forgot.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stas333:
Franco,

The boot. Img from today has the issue with not finding signal. I installed the image, played with the phone for couple hours, manually updated the prl and then the signal was gone until I restated the phone.

edit, same happens with the boot.img from apr 4th.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] jodvova:
Why is it pointless? I'm curious.

Is google's one using gcc47? Its a pretty old compiler. They've added some nice compiler and linker optimizations in 49. Plus 49 probably better supports thread sync primitives on arm (like fences, lc/sc and etc).
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I made a gazillion benchmarks on using different toolchains for Kernel binaries, differences were almost null besides making the code larger. Shamu is compiled with GC 4.8. I don't see a point in using their androideabi-4.9 to be honest and if Google uses their arm-eabi-4.8 they must have a reason and they know better than me.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Ok, thanks.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stas333:
hope this helps
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yes, hold on.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] troyd28:
Powermanagerservice display wake locks anyone else getting serious battery drain?
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
That's what keeps your display visible...
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] bill3508:
On r26, very quiet.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Try this one.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] stas333:
Bingo. found service after prl update. Same after the profile update. So, whatever you did has fixed the signal issue.
[Nexus 6  Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
[MENTION=2632235]bbedward[/MENTION] I reverted your MDM patch and this user, which has been having issues,, immediately have confirmed that is back in business. After I merged it users started having problems with complete loss of signal and then the modem didn't restart as it should. Check your if clauses - even if mdm_ready is false it can go through the if (value == 1) cancel the work and restart it up. Careful with that.
