I'm guessing that Franco may have reverted the commit that were done to the A57 cluster

(Lowered power usage by preventing the big cores to be boosted when touching the display unless they have at least 1 or more tasks running on any of the cores. Since big cores use ~4x more power than the little cores this will help tons with your screen on time)

and added input-boost to A57 cluster and lowered the input boot on A53 cluster so that higher clock speeds might get the tasks done faster, giving us more battery life????
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Degenerator9000:
Flashed the r14 exp. over the r14 after finishing a cycle with about 6h sot to see if I'd notice a difference

Semi hoping I don't because this all feels like a huge trap

---------- Post added at 03:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:52 AM ----------

Yeah, or rarely the other way around ime

Li-ion cells are weird bro, I doubt it's a product of the kernel coding. Every phone I've ever owned has had it's own weird battery lies it told me
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] justibasa:
So at the end of my day I still have 17% left and better sot than I usually get with the experimental kernel. Thanks Franco.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] juancaperez2000:
This my results with experimental 14 v2

Stock Rom, whole day on LTE, Tmobile
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Busted :D

Why do you say that?

Better than before?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] juancaperez2000:
Way much better, before I was only able to get 4hrs. SOT, thanks for this great update.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] duminduweera:
I assumed this because the input-boost has been decreased from 300ms to 40ms in cpu0 and 1958Mhz frequency been added for cpu4.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Vekhez:
What negative effects (if any) would this have on the device? I mean as you didn't want to say initially what it was because of potential 'backlash', why would there be 'backlash' to this change?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Degenerator9000:
Pretty sure he was just joking on the backlight comment lmao

Especially because amoleds don't even use backlights iirc

Probably a reference to nexus 5 hijinks
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Was joking.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Prattham:
First impression of the experimental

After letting it set for 10 mins

Damn my phone is flying though the ui

Stock settings

Damn i don't know about sot yet but performance is better like i can notice this

Its like 18 20 difference for me 18 was previous versions:D

Or maybe it is just for me:sly:

At 54% with 2 h 40 min sot

Although for me performance has really been a difference

I would say just 5% difference in battery

You realize at that rate you are looking at just under 6 hours of screen on time when the battery hits 0 right?

Based on 2 consecutive days, r14 experimental looks like it's better for sot. I hit 6 sot with r14 and about 7. 5 with r14, but i somehow have chrome as my biggest battery draw now over the screen, so adaptive might have turned my display brightness down a lot yesterday
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] marbertshere:
You made a typo in your second sentence. Do you mean r14e is better than r14 for yourself?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Degenerator9000:
Lmao my bad

Fixed

I meant to say I got the longer life with the experimental
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] sjknight413:
Not seeing any difference in SOT from r14 experimental over r14 regular here, sure you guys aren't getting placebo'd?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Degenerator9000:
There's a good chance because using 2 random days as a comparison probably isn't a foolproof clinical trial

Especially when the second day was clearly a weirdo because chrome used more battery than my screen which has never happened before in my life
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Toutatis_:
Well, as I said in my previous posts, as far as I'm concerned I'm not really seeing any significant difference either compared to r12/ r13 I've been running these last few weeks. It's as good as before. :good:
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
How can it be placebo if no one knows what I changed? Maybe I didn't change a thing. Maybe I did.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Simer03:
I felt my battery was worse today on experimental. But idk for sure. Just seemed like it
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] G-Bus:
You're not alone same thing here today Chrome topped my battery usage.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Toutatis_:
Franco is a prankster guys. He hasn't indeed changed anything at all and he's laughing hard when reading all the comments from users who report dramatically better SoT. :cool:
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] dwang:
From what I can tell r14 experimental boosts the big cpu to 1.9ghz. I can see it in the kernel adiutor stats, 1.9ghz takes up ~10% of the cpu states.

In the original r14, big cpu at 1.9ghz was always at ~1%.

My battery life seems to be worse because of this actually, but it does seem to give a boost in performance.

I typically get 40-45min of SOT per 10% battery. With r14 experimental, i'm getting closer to 30-35min of SOT per 10% battery.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
You do realize that's completely Kernel unrelated?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] G-Bus:
Yes totally unrelated. Was just quoting the other guy because I too noticed that today.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Degenerator9000:
weird, I wanna get back to trying his **** out again but I just updated to N and I'm pretty sure r14e doesn't work there

plus even if it did I have no idea how to flash it because after the update it's looking like this TWRP won't stick unless I decrypt
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Degenerator9000:
God wtf it's happening on N now too

I know it's only been like 9 percent since I took it off charge but come on man

I built up all this muscle memory to hit the first option in the battery tab knowing it would be screen over the last few years and everyone is murking my happy comfort zone
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Asselalf:
Does anybody know something about the qpnp wakelocks? I'm on R14 experimental. Device is now 11% awake but battery life is still good. On previous versions like R12 my device was only awake about 3-5%

Found something here but that is about my knowledge
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] matheus_sc:
Its possible to make a. Img file for flash in android n?

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Ad.Shk2:
+1 for the Qpnp wake locks.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] cAase:
How weird. I've always had these wake locks ever since I bought the phone. Regardless of ROM and kernel. Even had them on Sony Z3+. So I figured they're essential for the system. No idea what they serve though. Not much on Google regarding those.

[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION],

I had a reboot overnight while my phone was on my bedside table untouched. I'm attaching all of the logs from: `/sys/fs/pstore` in the hopes that you're able to identify what caused it.

I'm on r14-experimental and the rest of my setup is correct in my signature. I haven't modified any kernel settings. I've only enabled the auto high brightness option (which is ducking awesome, BTW).

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] noooooo:
3-4 days in experimental build and not much changed, just a few more battery under mobile data, but maybe I've been in better reception area, we'll see :thumbup:

Experimental running pretty neat here. Up to 2 hours SoT with 60% left. I've ran into no reboots or other issues. ?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] erraggy:
Glad to hear you aren't to blame. LOL

I'm now extremely curious why this would hit me and no one else. :confused:

I wish I could check qualcom's site for a "driver update" to "install on my phone"... Or even better an "apt-get update" I could run.

Yeah that's rom released. Happens to me when I use certain rooms. You can verify this by downloading GSam Battery monitor. It will show WiFi really isn't running
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] motoridersd:
My battery life with r14 experimental is no different than other Franco releases (or the latest MHC19I stock kernel). I do a lot of high battery usage stuff that a kernel can't fix (GPS, WiFi Tethering, Android Wear, A2DP and Low Signal).
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Degenerator9000:
It's looking like the W build of Android N murked fast charging, does anyone know if this is something that's handled by the kernel or Nahh?

If nobody knows I'll probably just try flashing in flashfire anyway
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] matheus_sc:
Guys i able to flash in android N even with encrypt enabled. I only root and use flashfire app and now kernel works
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yeah there's not much I can do with that kind of usage :) Tried the power saving profile?

The latest N build had no Kernel changes so if that's the case I'm sure it's something on userspace. Although I'm 99% sure fast charging is working as expected.

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] matheus_sc:
Twrp dont work for me, asks for decrypt a device. With flashfire kernel now works
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
That has nothing to do with the Kernel -.- Twrp uses it's own Kernel like every other recovery. Just stop.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] snachez:
Have been using the 14e for the last few days, and am getting similar SOT compared to previous releases.. nothing mindblowingly better that I can notice, but as usual am still incredibly happy with francokernel :D
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Deggy:
I give 14e a thumbs up. Almost 3 and half hours SoT at 50% battery is good enough for me. I ain't complaining.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] marbertshere:
This is off-topic so delete if you wish, but for those of you on N (or the latest 6P/5X builds) that are having issues with TWRP, head over to their Google+ group page and you'll find an appropriate build of TWRP.

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Soundtallica:
For me, non-experimental R14 has murdered my battery life. I was getting 5ish hrs SOT before, but now I'll be lucky to reach 3 over the same amount of time. However this may be because I flashed it the night before a road trip through Utah and Arizona where I had spotty coverage, except for where I stayed at night where it was fine. I've been taking a LOT of pictures during the day as well.

I return home tomorrow or on Friday so I'll report back on battery performance under my normal daily usage then.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] matust:
Road tripping = bad reception = bad battery

Taking lots of photos will drain your battery as well. Its your usage not the kernel that is using you battery
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Soundtallica:
I know that, and that's why I'm not drawing conclusions yet until I use it in my daily routine. However, I didn't know that difference could slice my battery literally in half.

Also, I don't know why but my reboot menu (from Gravitybox) strangely got broken when I flashed r14 and I only have the power off option when I press and hold my power key. I can't see how it could be a kernel related issue but just thought it was worth mentioning.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] neisor:
Hey there,

I did experience a random shutdown (not a reboot) and sometimes when I unlock my N6P with a fingerprint it won't turn the screen on.

Same thing has been happening. The phone prompts me for a password every morning. When I check gsam, it usually shows that the phone was off for 20-40 minutes overnight.

I went to grab my phone this morning and it wasnt responding to any wake functions (screen, button, finger), yet my notification light was flashing to indicate a new message. I had to long press power to start the phone (reboot?). Checked gsam and it was off for 2+ hours. Running r12.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] sam razzy:
Okay... From that point of view.. why can't you try r14e and give us the feedback. When Franco has already released a two of latest kernel (r14 and r14e) then why can't you try that and see if that really solves...?

Let us know ....
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] kiefferbp:
You're complaining that an out-of-date kernel is giving you issues...
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I haven't seen anything like that happening, ever. None of my changes "turn off" the device. How many times did that happen?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Ok the only change on r14 experimental was allowing the big cores to be boosted on touch, and both little and bit cores boosted to max freq, but only 40ms. That has a big downside, for playing games or if you're constantly typing waking up the big cores will ultimately rape your battery life. I did a few tests with games that required constant touching on the display and the device got really hot really quickly and battery life was destroyed. So yeah, that was what I changed.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] motoridersd:
What version of firmware are you running? If it's MHC19I, then the password prompt is probably the boot prompt? My battery stats will show a huge gap after a crash/reboot. If your phone was shutting down, you would have to turn it on. You're getting crashes. Give us more information about the rest of your configuration.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] juancaperez2000:
Sorry about my poor english and also im a little drunk now lol, that means that R14E doesnt help for SOT?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] justibasa:
If you don't play games, or type allot then sot is amazing.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Screen on time should be mostly the same on both r14 depending on your usage. The more you interact with your display the worse screen on time you'll get on the experimental, but performance should be a hair better than the regular r14.

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Tzfardaya:
Keep in mind that my *best* sot is usually half that of most users here, because my signal quality is ****e at work (even though signal strength is strong)

Hmm, I do a lot of typing, no gaming, but I didn't think the experimental build made my battery life worse. I actually got over 4 hours SoT in one charge, which I rarely do (but I did go down all the way into 5%)

Since i know that the viperfx cracking distortion sound is related to the governor i was wondering if there is a fix for that. For instance if i watch a vid from youtube the sound does not crack but if i watch it in chrome it does. Also screen off does the same, it sound like a rally car letting go off the gas...

What is the best fix to fix that? :)

Switching to ondemand is what makes it go away.

Sl the only app that works with interactive governor is youtbe and i wonder why...

Also how much will the battery be affected if i lower the go_hispeed_load for 20?
