I'm terribly sorry, I just had to. I'll see myself out.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] AngeredNumber:
Absolutely love your kernels man, wouldn't be a nexus without it. My battery is amazing now, are you some sort of wizard?!?! Haha, good job mate!!! Also Naptime is epic!!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Gytole:
Easy install for pure nexus!

Love me some Franco Kernel, had some issues. Issues no more! haha

Download both zips and Franco's awesomeness to your phones, courtesey of osmosis and Chainfiyuh, boot into twrp, flash unroot, then flash franco, then flash systemless. profit.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] THATTON:
Thanks man. I didn't know there was an update to SuperSU.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Dr_Ownage:
Hi all,

Just got my 6p, unlocked and flashed franco. Everything is going well :)

However, my FKUpdater (pro) isn't loading on the kernel update page. Just sits there spinning. Anyone else seen this?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] jiv101:
Franco needs to update the app, but it still works
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Working as we speak, updating the app for the 6P. Almost finished :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] dadoc04:
Franco working his ass off... lol

could've sworn he said a week or so before its done and out.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] ltzmu4h:
Some reason when I enable dt2w from kernel adiutor, with apply on boot enabled, on every reboot it switched back to disabled. Everything else I edit from kernel adiutor sticks tho, ie. Gamma, read ahead so on. Is this kernel related or the app?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] duminduweera:
Phenomenal battery life with this kernel.

I live in a area with very very low reception, so I NEVER get 6-7hrs of SOT. usually i get about 3-4 SOT with maximum of 1 n a half a days use.

With franco I got 4hrs of SOT with 2d1h :) This is without no mods, everything switched on.

I have never used a phone for over 2 days :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yeah, that sounds about right. The hardest part is already done though.

Magical! You're going to love r2.

My body is ready.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] kjcmusic17:
I had this issue as well. When plugged into my factory charger the phone got extremely hot. I also got crappy battery life compared to the stock kernel I've been running. Tried reflashing and same issues. Gonna try a fresh download later. This was r14 btw.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Try a clean flash of the rom too... Sometimes things get bunged up... Especially if you make/revert many system tweaks.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] kjcmusic17:
Just tried a fresh install of the latest Pure Nexus, Nexus GApps, and a fresh download of r14. Had the same issue with the fast charging and the phone was very hot again. KernelAduitor wouldn't load any options either. Haven't tried any other Franco release since I just recently got a N6P.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Tried Franco and stock rom? See if you have the same issue there.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Soundtallica:
Just got a random reboot in r14 as well. My phone kept on making the unlocking noise constantly until I re-entered my PIN.

Battery life so far isn't great. I got about 3.5 hrs of screen on time over 13 hours yesterday in my first day of normal usage on r14 (just got home from a road trip) draining the battery to 20%. I was used to getting an hour more than that on 20 hours on r12. I'll give it another shot for the rest of today but if it doesn't improve I'm rolling back to r12.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Juzman:
No idea. I never really check it. Can usually get a days use though.

Stock Franco > Ghostpepper any day of the week.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mystertom101:
How do I get ghostpepper?

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24385658843825756 :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mystertom101:
Thanks, but how do I use that ??
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Badger50:
Remove the .tx then transfer that to ElementalX folder using a root explorer and put in the governor profile folder. Then open the EXKM app go to CPU>governor options, hit the load button, and select ghostpepper. Then there ya go :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mystertom101:
So exkernel manager is needed ?okay
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Badger50:
If you don't have it, then add .sh on the end of the file. That'll make it executeable. Then open your root explorer, click on the GP file, and you should be promoted to install the file. However, you will need some sort of kernel manager app to have the settings stick during reboots.

In just used kernel adiutor and changes the settings to the 6P version of ghost pepper. Make sure you're not using the settings for the 5X.

R14 on stock rom gets the first frame of video then the rest is black :-/ flashed r12 and video record is fine.

I did a full device wipe and factory reset last week to flash the "*i" firmware.

I reverted to r12 because I'm out of town for another day.

Get vomer tweaks and give it a go. I'm on r14 with pure Nexus and getting 5-5:30 sot whereas before on elemental would top out at about 4:30 sot. This kernel,ROM, tweak combo is incredible. Thanks to the devs!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Asselalf:
Why are you tweaking the kernel? You don't need Vomer Tweaks or governor profiles with franco.Kernel... I got 6hrs Screen on Time over 2 days. Just flash it and profit
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] shiz222:
Hey guys completely confused here hoping you can point me in the right direction. I'm rooted/unlocked custom Rom (dirty unicorns) on R10, on Mmb29u. Would like to upgrade to MHC19I then to r14. I always struggle finding the proper steps to do so. Can someone point out how please?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Asselalf:
flash TWRP 3.0.0-1

flash MHC19I Vendor with TWRP or Fastboot

flash latest DU weeklies

flash GApps

flash Franco.Kernel
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Because while you may get 6+ sot using Franco defaults, not all of us do. (I'm lucky to get past 3.5 sot) environment, usage, and apps used plays a very large role in how long the battery lasts. In my case, it's the radio that chews up all my batteries. (strong signal, just very, very noisy signal. Frequent tower handoffs, frequently over one hand off per minute)

For my usage at work.

Stock rom/kernel = 2.5sot

Stock rom/Franco kernel (defaults)=3-3.5sot

Stock rom/Franco kernel (mild tweaks) = 4 sot
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] kiefferbp:
Does Pure Nexus + Franco give you better battery than stock + Franco? I get the same improvements on stock ROM as you are. I am not sure why but ElementalX has never been good to my 6P's battery.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] aliboz:
I haven't tried stock +Franco. But I would think pure Nexus is tweaked to perform better than stock no?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Why would you assume that?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
This talk about X or Y roms giving you better battery life is like saying drinking more water makes your parrot sing louder than Pavarotti. Unless those rom guys (and I REALLY REALLY doubt it) mess with things such as Doze parameters, or revolutionarily re-write/improve subsystems like AlarmManager, JobScheduler or any of those things that mess with idle consumption, battery life changes between roms are 100% placebo.

I'll be pushing a r15 in the next days based on user feedback on the last pages.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] blsrbl:
Well said.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Phazmos:
And that's the gospel truth.

You'd have to have some real shirty code to make a difference, and in my time on xda, I just haven't seen that.

And no offense to the great Franco, but when set up the same, kernels don't make much, if any difference either.

Proper testing is a lost art these days. But understandable when what does make the biggest difference happens to be the hardest to keep consistent enough for proper testing.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Trust me, my changes do many a lot of a difference, but I can't circumvent things like Bluetooth consumption, or ****ty cellular signal, or GPS trying hard to have a lock on your position etc so if your usage comes down to those variables, may the odds be in your favor.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] kingmikel:
Is it going to be pretty much the same as r14 exp?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Phazmos:
That's the thing - real estate is location location location and battery life is usage usage usage.

Only way to keep that consistent is put the device down in the same place and don't touch it. And even that isn't much of a real test.

Eh, I don't worry about it any more. I flash it, set it up, run it. I'd much rather worry about my handicap than getting an extra 30 min. sot - 10 hrs is plenty enough to get me through a day - or 2.

As always, a very big thank you for what you've done and will continue to do! In the,I don't know, 5-6 or more yrs I've had the pleasure of using your kernel, I was never disappointed!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
No.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] G-Bus:
Just a little heads up. I reverted to stock boot.img and the random reboots in the middle of the night are gone. Waiting for r15 see if it'll fix that issue, not that its a major issue but still. I seem to have lost about half an hour to a full hour of SOT going from r14 to stock.

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] ltzmu4h:
Sorry if this is a dumb question, if Im just on stock with Franco (no su), do I still need to flash boot.IMG before taking a update (already downloaded)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yup.

I just flashed r14 on latest N and working well. :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
When testing I set background processes to none in dev settings.. Turn off all radios (unless that's what you're testing). Fresh reboot, wait 5 minutes before starting the test.

Totally agree with you, im about to move my 6P to stock again im getting old to be dealing with roms, ill keep looking on Kernels, been really happy with your kernels since N5 times.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:
R14 brought great battery life to my phone. Been using your kernel since n10 days.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] kingmikel:
I just went back to stock and I'm glad I did. I'm not getting any random reboots that I was getting on the roms, and I have the same set up. Everything has just been overall more stable for me
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] ReapinDevil:
Does battery life depend on the type of ROM used?I'm thinking of flashing stock with Franco kernel
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] ltzmu4h:
For me, other than cataclysm that died, all the other Roms just aren't as good as stock with Franco. Tons of features but so bloated and bad battery cause of so many wakelocks
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] ReapinDevil:
I think I'll go ahead with stock coz I'm not looking for features.All I want is a stable daily driver with good battery life. Thanks

hey guys,

unfurtunately i'm having random reboots in the morning, I don't know if they're kernel related. However, i tried to pull kmsg but the command wasn't working and I had to restart my phone, I don't know if the kmsg I pulled after reboot still works, or should I wait for another reboot and then pull the log?

I was expecting a log full of information but I ended with only 3 lines.

It's my first time sending a log, please be gentle (?)

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] dakore:
I have "weird" battery related situation. I play Ingress alot and I noticed battery drain while playing is sooo small in comparision to Nexus 5. Actually I did some research, and here are quick results:

GPS - high accuracy,

Screen - 70-80% autobrightness (daylight, cloudy day),

Very good LTE coverage.

Average battery consumption is 15%/h! That is way lower than everything I've seen so far.

GPS - high accuracy,

Screen - 40% autobrightness (night time).

Very good LTE.

Consumption is again around 15%/h.

I tested all this while my battery was on 90%, 50% and 25%. I use Pure nexus rom and powersaving profile in FKU, nothing else. What kind of sorcery is this? :D Is it kernel magic or newer mobile phones doesn't suck battery when using GPS any more?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
You'd also need to know his baseline sot (pure stock setup) to be able to guesstimate how much of an improvement (if any) that setup shows...
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] ohhdavid:
adb restore

Has anyone else had problems on N preview using adb restore (or Helium frontend)? For me the pop-up window asking to confirm never disappears but I can 'recent' out and go back to Helium to view it trying to restore.. getting near the end then stopping and never completing. Probably just a problem with N but figured I'd run it through here and see if any other franco users experienced it.

As a sidenote, anyone know of a tool to convert adb backups to TiB backups? I know there's a tool in TiB to use adb backups but whatever is preventing it from working in Helium also seems to be preventing TiB from reading them because it shows up as empty. Even an adb backup I make on N will not show anything/work.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] SchmilK:
Exactly, but using your kernel vs stock i went from 30%/hour playing modern combat 4 single player in airplane mode with stock to 20%/hour with R14 and default settings. YOU definitely know what you are doing and it's been fun supporting and using your work since I had a nexus 4.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] joey3002:
thanks for your work. just bought the app. dumb question I have is, did I miss a post in here on "ideal" settings? When I open the app, all the settings are off. Sorry, dont beat me up to bad, I just came back to android from the iphone 6+... Feels good to have such customization again
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] resynx:
Ideal settings are the stock settings. Things like double tap to wake, color control, etc. can just be tuned to your preference.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Stock settings are a good starting point. Proper tuning of the kernel settings requires too much time for most people. (myself included)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Phazmos:
It's not as bad as you would think.

There's really only a few parameters that you can play with that really make any difference in standard governors. And the governor is what'll make the most difference.

There's lots of documentation, and it's pretty easy to digest.

You might even find it fun - I found the 30 minutes it took me time well spent..
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] joey3002:
Any links you could share that I could read? It does sound interesting.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Google linux kernel parameters - lot of info

Or governor name parameters. Probably get same results
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Oh, I agree... The coarse tuning (what you're suggesting) only takes a short while... I'm talking about dialing in the exact numbers for your usage to maximize the battery while minimizing or eliminating any perceivable (by you) lag, stutters, and delays. That's the one that takes time... (and even the coarse tune takes longer than 30 min to test properly...)

---------- Post added at 01:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 PM ----------

First post here does a good job explaining the methodology.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Nah, I'd have to say all this dialing in stuff is just making thing more complicated than it really is.

Using the KISS principal is all that's needed - ie - let the cpu run as fast as it needs to get the job done (it knows how to do that much better than we do) and more importantly, don't let it when it doesn't need to (which it also knows how to do much better than we do).

And there's the key - let it run when it wants to, let it not run when it wants to. And that's pretty easy to figure out - 2 or 3 parameters in the interactive governor.

Check it out, I'm sure you'll see what I'm talking about right off the bat.

Then you can KISS all that other stuff goodbye!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Degenerator9000:
I woke up to my phone asking for my pin which I thought meant it had rebooted, but when I entered it none of the settings that get deleted on reboot were reset, so I don't think it was an actual reboot.

Only happened this once on r14 and hasn't happened on stock ever
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
That's why I say Franco defaults are a sane starter and tweaks aren't needed for 99%

The kernel/cpu doesn't always get to it right. There are numerous apps that will peg the cpu at max for the entirety of their run. Back in the n5 days, we had a very similar argument going on. I ran a few tests with a couple apps (looking more at the battery usage rather than performance.) pure stock kernel used 2% every 5 minutes, Franco defaults used 1% every 2 minutes... Tweaking/underclocking the specific apps I was testing (per app modes) I was able to drop their battery usage to 1% every 5 minutes with no perceptible drop in performance (to me)

Kernel/governer/cpu just looks at the current load to determine frequency changes, it doesn't know/care what threads are causing the loads, doesn't know what that app actually needs for processing.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Lol - easy fix for those types of apps - don't use shirty apps!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
It's not quite so simple... It's most games, many productivity, several location apps in the shop.

Most apps I've actually taken the time to test don't require the cpu to ramp as high as it does.. I've locked them to usually one or two steps below what the kernel/governor sets without noticing and issues, three steps and more tends to introduce stutters and lag.

No, dirty flash your ROM or flash the stock boot image then flash Franco. It's a general rule of thumb never to flash custom kernels over each other.
