How did you come to that conclusion? Performance is great imo on drunksauce (lite):

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1P1LXnJnUdz9cC_qpcwMpfParUBlaPbIhyLZHOWjknUE/htmlview
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] :
What shows your link ?! There is only the uptades and if it's stable or not? But I never used drunksauce I just see that it has been removed from kernel manager App but I don't really know why.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] AquilaDroid:
I don t know why drunksauce-lite was removed either, just glad I have it installed so I can save it. It's been great, but I haven't done any scientific testing.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] peltus:
Oh you mean it's been removed from EXKM? Didn't get that at first.

Was it really ever in the included profiles? The standard Drunksauce profile wasn't compatible with EX kernel as it lacked the correct cpu governors.

DrunksauceLight is an adaptation that is compatible with the interactive cpu governor.

Anyway you can just download the profile and plop it in the

ElementalX\gov_profiles folder on you internal storage. Then load it in EXKM.

I posted the link to show the profile isn't retired in any way. It says nothing about the performance.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] manfio:
hi guys

need some help please

my cluster 1 is locked at 1440mhz

i dont know why, i tested some profiles and the cluster 1 is always lock at 1440

anyone know why?

thanks
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] mihi.ni:
Hi Manfio

I just had the same going on, stuck on 1440. Then I checked battery usage and Facebook was unexpected high. So I killed FB and the CPU immediately went down.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] khanjui:
Same thing happened on my mom's phone (LG G2) today, all cores were online at their maximum frequency. Reinstalling Facebook fixed the problem. Weird.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Smultie:
When your CPU is going haywire, it's almost always an app that's buggy.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Captain_Hungary:
Same problem here, but if I reinstall it, the bug reappears.

And it puts 40%load on the soc, so thermal engine kicks in... So I can't use Facebook and messenger :/

However big cores are unaffected.

Regardless of this, is it just me who can't set max freq for big cores? No matter what it's locked to 800mhz. I also had this bug on previous build, but I just kept tapping on 2160 and once it sticked :D

Btw I'm on latest pure nexus with clean install.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] mitas35:
Same here on the Facebook app :crying:
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Captain_Hungary:
Btw I don't think it's the app's bug since according to google play, messenger was last updated on Dec 12. I tried using it without the Facebook app and I still have the bug.

Does anyone have the 4.0.3 release to tell us if it's happening there too? (Currently I don't really have time for reflashing my phone to it, and setting it up again)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ulxerker:
I had the same problem with little cores running at max, in my case it was Google translator app which I had to uninstall.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Guangd:
sometimes big kernel is offline，is it normal？:D
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ulxerker:
yep, due to thermal issues (phone got too hot).
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] mitas35:
I wish I knew what's wrong, the only thing I know it's that as soon I uninstall Facebook and messager all is normal, I wish somebody find a solution:confused:

The touchboost setting is near the bottom of the attached screenshot.

I have been using elementalx as a governor since installing the elementalx kernel, and as far as I can tell, its better (smoother) than interactive, I also am not noticing any battery drain.

Echo 1 to enable. I suggest sweep up to wake, enabled by echoing 2 into /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
Do you have the latest version of EXKM and latest EX kernel?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] szucsgf:
I don't know, it's Touchboost on mine. Here's the screen if that helps.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] elmagio:
Yes, I have 1.01 installed!
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
Do you have SuperSU? The setting is only available with a supolicy change, and this requires SuperSU. Alternate root methods may not be able to access the setting.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] szucsgf:
No, the latest EX kernel manager. You won't see the touchboost option otherwise.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] dfryer1193:
Weird. Could you be missing any updates to the app?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] elmagio:
It's the latest version of the app too (2.35).

But I'm using CM root, guess that's the issue...
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
Cm is going off in their own direction on many things, again. It's always been difficult to support.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] elmagio:
Yeah, that's too bad. I guess I'll go back to the stock CM kernel, at least for the time being. Hoping in time things will smooth over...
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] dg4prez:
Works a treat. Thanks! I was intially echoing 2 into doubletap2wake, and it wasn't working.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] xda890:
Any way to just disable the timeout the same way?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
Yeah, but I don't remember what the path is and I'm currently at work.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] dfryer1193:
The path would seem to be /sys/android_touch/wake_timeout.

The time in there is in minutes.

Hi Guys!

Recently updated my device to 7.1.1 Pure Nexus (full wipe, clean install) and flashed as always EX Kernel 4.0.4. What I'm having right now is huge battery drain and constant wakelocks from NETLINK. In the worst case scenario I have 2.8-3.0% idle battery drain.

With betterbatterystats app log I can see that most wakelocks are NETLINK (70k per night) and I have weird accelerometer behavior:

Sensor: Significant motion(12), wakeup=true, Time: 40 m 55 s

NETLINK (): 46 m 23 s Cnt:(c/wc/ec)74652/381/0 10.9%
qpnp_fg_memaccess (): 8 m 37 s Cnt:(c/wc/ec)279/114/0 2.0%
qpnp_fg_update_sram (): 8 m 23 s Cnt:(c/wc/ec)272/116/0 2.0%

Phone is just laying on the floor with no move. All the wake-up gestures are disabled in kernel. Is that ROM-related or kernel-related stuff? With Pure Nexus 6.0.1 and EX Kernel there was no such issues at all :(

In attachment you can find full dump. Maybe someone have an idea what can cause such behavior?

Thanks!

You should set your big cluster to 600 for a minimum freq as it uses the same EXACT power anything from 6oo on down, jus saying!

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] rbt2008:
Lucky you! Already tried to wipe art/dalvik cache and tons of reboots - still nothing. Just found that an year ago I have 0.7% per hour at night. So sad :(
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Captain_Hungary:
Do you have"lift to check phone" enabled under gesture in system settings? Because that would explain the accelerometer thing. I also had to disable it and now I only lose 2-3% over night.

I really loved this feature but unfortunately it uses quit much power :/
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] rbt2008:
That was the first thing that I've disabled. Unfortunately, idle drain is still exists with every gesture off. Thank you for the suggestion!
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] lethall1:
I have this problem too. In my case it is a wifi problem. Check awake status in battery log, if the phone is awake when you are connected to WiFi all the time that means that you have this problem. And even when the screen is off the phone stays is awake. That bothered me a lot. I couldn't stop digging in this problem and I found a solution to change WiFi encryption from AES to TKIP. Eventually it removes the ability to connect to 802.11n network and may be that solves the issue. I tried to disable 802.11n on the routed leaving just B and G but it didn't work. I configured virtual WiFi network with only TKIP encryption and after switching to it and back again sometimes there was no wakelocks for some time. This is some kind of mystery for me.

BTW Battery Historian is great for this kind of mystery. If you have a lot network wakelocks, you can try to do some digging with your wifi network.

Hope that can help a bit.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] leolawliet:
Swipe Pro and Messenger Lite. This is the most battery friendly and CPU friendly combo I've used.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] rbt2008:
Thank you for the information!

It seems that TKIP encryption is very vulnerable (and it was hacked long time ago, back in 2008), so this is very unsecure workaround (my router doesn't even have TKIP option, only AES). Will dig more into it...
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] DevShekhawat7:
Can you please add any fast charge kind of feature?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Mrcactuseater:
Firstly, you should never quote the entire OP. Secondly, fast charge isn't needed thanks to USB-PD and it's fast charging captivities.

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]

It's possible if you add input boost to your kernel,or it's there by default?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ulxerker:
not needed ... if you really need such things simply enable Touchboost, which has the same effect like input boost.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] kojak1989:
I think you are wrong because on alkolawl thread he writes that touch boost must be disabled for more battery saving,but for gov profiles input boost is required.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ulxerker:
EDIT: see Flash's explanation below my post.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Input boost is enabled by default.

It may have a similar effect but one is customizable (input boost) and one isn't (touchboost) and it'd argue input boost, even if for a small amount, is necessary to avoid microlags.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] kojak1989:
Thank you!

Where can i find page with translations for EXKM ?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] peltus:
As far as i know n5x doesn't support either usb-pd or quichcharge but it has its own implementation.

I think he's asking for a feature to loosen the temperature restriction for "throttling" the charging process though.

For that there are several threads on the forum where you can manually flash a throttling profile.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] jody2k:
What do you mean it doesnt support it? It has quickcharge 3.0 ...
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] :
Nexus 5X supports USB-PD because that is what Google has been supporting since the release of this device. They don't rely on Qualcomm's QuickCharge.

It's USB-PD rather than QuickCharge.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] jody2k:
I guess you're right :D dunno where i read it was q 3.0
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ndarkside93:
The chipset technically supports both, but Google configured it for usb-pd. They are not fans of non standard charging types, thus the use of USB power delivery

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ndarkside93:
Flash the Rom first, then the kernel. And then you'll need to flash supersu zip to keep root

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ndarkside93:

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Maerk-051:
Ok
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ulxerker:
your CPU seems pretty hot (42 °C), maybe thats the reason. try to enable core_control and to increase the temperature limit in the cpu settings (and disable msm_thermal).

also check if all core are set to be online in the cpu settings.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Eurofighter_ty:
I did go outside at -13 C and the CPU was at 22 C and and the same problem regarding 4th core.

Goodmorning people.

I tried today to flash the new ElementalX-N5X-4.04 kernel, but is sends the phone into bootloop.

I followed the standard procedure for a clean install first because i wanted the purenexus_bullhead-7.1.1-20170113-OFFICIAL which works well with it's own kernel. But when i add the ElementalX it goes into bootloop. Any thoughts?

Hey guys.

After searching the forum (maybe for the wrong words) i am asking here.

I own a LG G4 which has the same SOC MSM8992 like the Nexus 5X.

Is there a way to reduce/limit the charging current in this kernel?

If yes, maybe it could be cherry picked by LG G4 devs :p

Heres the thread i am talking about: https://xdaforums.com/g4/general/tut-how-to-real-improve-battery-life-t3536768

That's interesting, when I install this kernel on rooted-encrypted stock device crash, when I install it on rooted-unencrypted stock everything is fine, but when I flash this kernel while I'm on Pixel ROM (unencrypted) device won't even pass "Google" screen. Now I'm running on encrypted LineageOS - CyanogenMod 14.1 (call it as you wish) and you know what? everything is working fine. I'm curious, why something like this happened?

Thermal throttling, your big cores are offline so it shows that error. Or they are offline because of low battery level. I see that error message after every reboot until big cores come back online.

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] joetheshmo:
Quick guide for figuring this out: reading the post in the advanced interactive governor tweaks.

Long guide for figuring this out: go to exkm, 3 dots, wipe app data. Reboot phone. Take note of all the stock values. Apply the governor profile of choice. Take note of each value that has changed from stock value. Apply on boot the settings that changed. Commonly, this is the governor tunables themselves, touchboost off, input boot ms and input boost frequencies.
