Looks like I also have the same issue on latest PA + r21 (I didn't update to r22 yet).

All good when playing 4K videos recorded with Open Camera, but I cannot play those recorded with stock PA camera app. I've just tried with Focus and VLC, the video just won't launch at all.

Moreover, I noticed that the phone gets really unresponsive after trying to do that, I had to reboot.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I know what it is, no need to keep reporting it :)

No Conservative governor

I flashed latest franco kernel for N6p which was franco #22 and there is no conservative governor. Is there a way to get it? Am I just missing it? Or what else should I use besides powersave, to get the best battery life?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] drdrewdown:
use the default config, franco hasn't had conservative gov in quite some time
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
You're already getting a huge battery life boost by flashing FK alone without changing anything.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] spjetrovic:
Francisco has if I'm correct over ten years of building kernels! I vote FF for MVP!

Thanks man for the long term commitment.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Almost 6 years, but thank you :) Major props to the thousands of contributors to Linux & open source Kernel contributors on the various vendors, without them it would be impossibru.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] pelele82:
Hi there! I'm just trying your kernel on Paranoid for first time, and just buying your app like a fanboy ?, appreciating your work man. Where can i find some differents profiles and configs for test on my nexus 6p? I usually check the phone a lot for short tasks but steadily. Thank ypu for your attenttion!

Franco, do you plan to do development for Android N and at what point do you think those releases might start? I want to go Android N but not giving up my Franco kernel!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
As soon as N is released.

Hi franciscofranco, is it possible to integrate the governer tweaking profiles into fku? I'm currently using fku alongside EX Kernel manager, where I apply the profiles provided by the community. This is very handy to test various combinations and profiles. I know I can do the changes manual or just use both apps, but the apply and forget method provided by exkm is a nice feature.

Im currently using R23 with Eclipse V2 and im very satisfied. Nice Balance between performance and batterie life.

Greetings Brembo

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Well I can add something like that, it's easy to do, but... I do have some reservations about those "profiles" that claim better this or better that and I'm really skeptical.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Brembo109:
Okay, i understand that. I don't know if there are real negatives to the profiles, i only know that a lot of people like to use them and are happy with the results. And it gives them something to play with ?. I thought I bring this topic to your attention. If you think it is not worth it, then leave it out of your app.

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] angle409:
hi franco, i wonder whether the 300ms input boost is too long? I see purenexus rom kernel default is 40ms? Seems like a big difference. Wonder whether this affects battery life.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Of course longer input boost will use more battery life, but you'll notice hangs with 40ms, unless Purenexus builds from CM sources and uses their PowerHal, and in that case I would argue 40ms should be enough since CM has a lot of magic on their PowerHal to boost the CPU based on certain events that stock does not.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Smallsmx3:
CM uses magic?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] angle409:
I see. Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mbc663:
Hey Franco,

Is there a way to backup/restore kernel settings (color profile, any changes made under kernel settings, etc.)?

From what I understand, backup/restore in the FKUpdater app creates a backup of the actual kernel, not the settings?

I'm going to wipe/flash to the new Pure Nexus release and don't want to lose all the settings I've made in your app and would like to restore them after wiping. Thanks as always!:highfive:
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] angle409:
use titanium backup
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I don't have a mechanism to backup settings. Maybe I'll play with Marshmallow's backup mechanism.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Brembo109:
Nice. I wanted to suggest just that.

For Franco,

Can zram and zswap /or vnswap be added to the kernel? I have a few active background apps that always get kill after about 30 minutes. Mainly neumob and Facebook notifications. Tried a few kernels that have zram feature and it help with the apps due to the extended memory size.

Thanks......
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Can you copy the preferences.xml file in/data/data/com.franco.kernel/shared_prefs folder?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I'm not sure ZRAM will help you. Are you sure you don't have any memory optimization app running or you're swiping apps off recents?

There's a little bit more than that.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] minhgi:
I don't use any memory optimization app but just ccleaner
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
-_- ccleaner does "ram optimization" too, so there you have it.

Can we flash this in latest PN straight? latest PN has systemless root by default. Hence curious as to whether we can flash on straight.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] purian23:
OT here but where did the official CM ROMS for the 6p go? Nowhere on XDA that I can tell. FK and CM did pretty well together.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] jorim.tielemans:
Official CM ROMS can always be downloaded [here](https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=angler)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] purian23:
Well yeah definitely I just didn't know if I missed something here that caused them to pull from XDA.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Brembo109:
I don't think they got pulled, but they just don't make a dedicated device threat for the 6p.

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Zorachus:
Sorry for the dummy question. I'm currently on another kernel, and always been decrypted, don't want encrypt.

Anyways, can I just flash Franco kernel in Recovery, and still be decrypted after ?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Yes, Franco has forced encryption disabled. Just be sure to restore your ROM's/stock's boot.img first then flash the kernel and reboot.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Zorachus:
So first flash the boot.img again in Recovery, abd then flash the Kernel ?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Yes, when changing custom kernels you need to flash the boot image so that any previous ramdisk edits get reverted.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] chiahead52:
I have never fully understood this? Why dirty flash ROM or the boot image of the ROM you are on? I mean so if I am on a ROM with Franco kernel built in and I wanna try Elite or AK, I need to flash the franco boot image first or the ROM? That is not the same thing as flashing the stock kernel. Arent there quite a few ROM's with all sorts of different kernels built in? Again it just doesnt make any sense to me.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Here's your rule of thumb: if you are on the kernel that is built into your ROM, you can flash any custom kernel you want.

Technical explanation:

A boot.img is made up of two parts: a ramdisk (part of the device tree, basically holds the booting information for the system) and a zImage (the actual kernel itself). Most kernels nowadays use a format called AnyKernel2 by [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION], which allows you to flash a zImage and make edits to the ramdisk without overriding the ramdisk itself. On this kernel, Franco adds ramdisk files for his kernel application as well as some other things. Each kernel makes different edits and they can be incompatible with each other. That's why flashing the boot.img if on stock or dirty flashing the ROM is necessary, to clear those edits because a kernel in an AK2 format will not do this. However, if you are on a ROM with a custom kernel, they most likely have not done any ramdisk edits for the kernel in question, so you are free to flash another custom kernel without any issues. Also, some kernels also make edits to /system, which is why dirty flashing the ROM is suggested, rather than the boot.img alone.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] georgegermanos:
Franco,

Thank you so much for your kernel! Always smooth with great battery life as I've come to expect from your work since the glory days of the Nexus 5.

I recently flashed the latest version of your kernel on my N6P and have since noticed I can no longer connect to WhatsApp web. Is it possible this is a WiFi issue as a result of the kernel? I flashed it on a completely stock N6P w/ stock rom and kernel.

Thanks a ton!!!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mohdfahad47:
Hey there, how y'all doing? Can i flash this kernel on resurrection remix(im confused of the rom uses systemless root or not)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Yes, flash and forget.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Brembo109:
Hi Georgegermanos,

I'm not Franco but I can answer this too. I'm using his Kernel on stock rom too and there are no issues related to the kernel regarding WhatsApp web. WhatsApp web sometimes glitches out, just delete the existing connection and reconnect, that should solve the problem. At least it does for me.

Yeah, sorry. I'm using Paranoid Android (latest version), based on Android 6.0.1. No Xposed, only root. Camera was working until I installed Franco kernel from recovery (TWRP). Now it just crashes everytime I try to open
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] indian84:
Are you trying to use built-in camera that came with the ROM? You can start by clearing camera data. If that doesn't help, reboot and try to install Google CamÃ©ra from play store.

Just wanted to chime and say that, on r23, the hearthstone freezes I experienced back around r15/r16/r17. I missed all the versions in between, so I can't say which one fixed it, but it does seem fixed. thanks!

On r25, freezes in hearthstone still happen. Is there any information I can provide to help diagnose the problem? The battery savings from Franco kernel are hard to live without...

I'm using Google Camera. Already tried clearing data, that didn't help

Anyone played with sound stuff?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] :
Offish topic question/opinion!

Hey franciscofranco and everyone, what is your guy's opinion in the littleBIG arm architecture? Do you think its the future?

In my humble opinion, I personally don't think it's such a great solution to a nonexistent problem. I think there is extra overhead involved with how threads are juggled with the big and little cores. I wouldn't be surprised if it was harder to optimise as well. I feel Qualcomm should have went the Apple route and went with stronger cores but with fewer cores. Those cpus are pretty power efficent too. The 805 chip was and still is very fast. I wish they just improved upon that design instead.

This 8core thing we have now, is in my opinion, a bandaid solution to increasing performance while keeping total power draw low and not resorting to die shrinks and other more sound methods of increasing efficiency.

I know there are some pros. If Franco can get the Little Cores to be used more and more while still keeping real use performance good, this chip should be much more power efficent than the 805 chip.

What do you guys think?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Ranguvar:
I think such a heavily multicore solution is ahead of its time.

I also think it gets a much worse rap than it should, because of benchmarks and improper implementations in other phones.

It hurts now in intensively single threaded workloads, which are plentiful. And of course that will improve.

The main thing though, is that once you get to know the 810, it starts to make sense. It's a "bursty" architecture. Big cores that turn on and ramp quickly to handle sudden loads, then snooze.

The way we use our phones is "bursty", like that, in 98% of use cases. Benchmarks are very much an outlier.

The new 2+2 design does make more sense for today's apps. But I think big.LITTLE is here to stay, barring other improvements that supercede it. I think the 810 is great once you take the approach that the 6P has, looking at the processes running and their nice level, and bringing big cores online for specific tasks.

Hello [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION]

Unfortunately this issue persist in r2 too.. I have attached logs for you.

Not too sure if it's the right way as this is my first time doing it.. Do let me know if this helps

In Short, it happens randomly

- game future fight hangs at loading screen after a 3 to 6 stages

- phone doesn't hang and can go back to home screen

- screen will turn black if return to game

- only way to re enter is to close it by swiping @ task

Tried other kernels, lean, AK and kylo.. All works fine and no such issue..

The 6P charging adapter is much bigger compared to N5's adapter. The cable is thicker too. And the phone is huge as it is. So, I don't carry around the adapter / c-c cable. I carry to small c-a cable so that I can charge the phone via connecting to my laptop, if I needed to. Having fast charge on usb mode would be beneficial there.

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I think Android OEMs went with the easiest route to try and tackle Android's performance issues. Adding more cores won't do much if there aren't multi-threaded workloads. You barely use more than 2 threads on simple apps so ideally I think more than 2-4 cores is kinda ridiculous. I'd rather have 2 low power cores for background workloads (threads with lower nice level) and 2 high perf cores for bursty operations, and combine them both (probably underclocking the higher perf cores) for average demanding workloads.

I'd take single threaded performance instead of higher number of cores any day.

We could talk about this all day and go way deeper.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I'll check your logs, thanks.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mgear356:
