For no apparent reason, with this kernel, my little cluster was literally clocked at the highest freq for 2hrs..draining my battery, and I had no active apps or anything running. It would just keep spiking up, never had this happened before.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Why are you assuming that's FK's fault? I'm pretty sure you had some background process keeping your cores pegged.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] herBosaurus:
Good question. Because it was the only change I made, flashing FK. I waited an hour after even rebooting, without having any apps running, literally everything was Greenified, and I had no apps in the foreground. I flashed another kernel and did the same thing and it was fine.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Marcksaf:
R11 version it's amazing, thx!

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] schaggo:
Phone respectively Snapdragon 808 is quite useless now that summer starts to hit mainland and central Europe. As soon as the sun comes out, my CPU temp permanently hits 60° and more with only light tasks.

Basically I could say, my device turns itself into a quadcore device from 08:30 to 21:00 o'clock and even lowers the clockspeeds to batteryfriendly levels from 11:00 to 18:00!

<sarcasm>I would have paid a premium for that when I bought the device back in winter if I knew in advance, ingenious power saving features!!!</sarcasm>

[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] does your Kernel actually support Backlight Dimmer as for example flar2's EX Kernel does? I ask this because some Kernel config Tools expose the functionality to be configured when running your kernel, but I'm not sure of it actually being there... ?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] khanjui:
It has got his own backlight dimmer algorithm(?), different from EX kernel as i know.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Razorless:
You might consider increasing the thermal limit. I have been using the extreme profile for weeks without problems. It greatly increases the uptime of the big cluster.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] rofik_gitara:
anyone try latest FK on latest PA rom?

Thanks
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] czecx:
Sorry for the stupid question... but, is it possible to enable/add init.d support on your kernel? If yes, how I can make it?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Overclock? What for?

Yes and it's enabled by default.

It works fine on all roms.

People still use init.d?

"Works with all rom"

Works with Android N DP4?

Yes...I use it for some tweaks. How I can enable it?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] neinfricatu:
Yep, works like a charm. <MOD EDIT - NO PERSONAL ATTACKS THANK YOU.>
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
No, Android N is a preview...

Needs to be added to the ramdisk.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] czecx:
Can you do it please?...
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ale_191:
With latest release I have a continuously lag with Jhon gba emulator (game boy advance emulator).

With the r11 it go without problem... :(
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ulxerker:
must be related with recent governor tweaks by franco. which profile are you running within the FKU app? if you are on powersafe, try balanced or performance.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ale_191:
Is stock untouched, the same configuration of previous release....
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ulxerker:
its not stock as you use a custom kernel :) so I'd suggest to install FKU (franco kernel updater) app to set performance profile and see if it works better for you.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] CerB:
Thats strange, flash R12 and wanted to go back to R11, flashing R11 my phone stays at google logo, flash R12 again and phones boots again
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ale_191:
...

Stock settings of franco kernel not of aosp kernel, i know the difference :D

I have a minimal rom, without useless service or apps.

I have updated from r11 (perfect) to r12 and now the phone lag. I don't want touch the settings of kernel, i like the 'stock' developer release ( I m a rom dev and java developer, I know the parameters,the tweaks and others, but kernel isn't 'my zone'... for this reason I love stock configuration of custom kernel :) )

Thank you for reply :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] pomhg:
Same here, with r12 phone lags a lot, stock setting.

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] kojak1989:
@ franciscofranco

Your kernel doesnt support any wake controls like double tap to wake ?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ulxerker:
nope, it doesn't. its unnecessary anyway as you can unlock your N5X by a single tap on the fingerprint scanner.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] khanjui:
Not valid when phone is on the table and your other hand is busy.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] pkelly517:
Still valid if you have the ability to pick up your phone.

Don't be lazy, stop watching porn or stop whining.

It's called matter of preference, not being lazy
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] oc2:
All works fine here, no lags or instability with r12, thx franco :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Schneewitzchen:

Can you add kexec-hardboot patch?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] snipinu:
Anyone else having wifi not connection problem with this release
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] pkelly517:
ROM needs a particular commit.

Pure Nexus will be released in a bit. The commit has been added and rebuild is underway.

Edit: That's actually an issue with phone prior to this year. Kernel and vendor have to match on the N5X.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] :
[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] any recommended tweaks for battery? Just switched from 6p and I don't really know what to tweak other than the input boost time.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] 5dprince:
voltage control ?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] khanjui:
Unnecessary for this device and it cause problems.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] arx160le:
Franco, does this kernel support f2fs? Can't seem to find anything on f2fs support.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Koboldchen:
For me it looks like r12 has a problem with RAM management. Usually I have around 350 - 400 MB of free RAM at normal use, now only around 150 MB RAM is left quiet often. I guess that's the moment where the phone starts to lag...
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
r13 is up boosting performance a little bit based on r12's feedback.

https://plus.google.com/u/0/+FranciscoFranco1990/posts/PnHXnDqwyFW
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Aaron1017:
Definitely much faster loading apps!
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] :
r13 is jammin on SAOSP. Thanks Franco! Nice work!! ?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] revanmj:
Does it require newer Android verion? Because I installed it on CM without July's vendor images / blobs and got stuck on Google logo with an opened lock.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Ferdimage:
Had the same issue, just reboot into recovery and flash it again.

All working after that.

Also do you guys use the Franco Kernel app to adjust the settings?

Or default kernel settings are recommended?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] revanmj:
Will try that after getting home.

As for the app - I use it to disable bt wakelock and change performance profile to powersave.

any way to turn off nexus imprint vibration?

and how to fix the yellow tint of my n5x running stock 6.0.1 with franco r13 kernel?

Sent from my Nexus 5X
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
1 - No.

2 - Dev options -> use cooler temperature...
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] gtsfreak:
I'm on mmb29k there is no option of cooler temperature and I don't wanna update as I have a custom boot image and reverting to stock boot image is very hectic?

Sent from my Nexus 5X
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
just download the latest nexus images, open the flash-all.sh (or .bat if you're on Windows) and remove the "-w" argument from the fastboot -w flash... line, save, and run the script in the bootloader. Removing the -w will prevent the fastboot binary from wiping everything and just overwrites the files it needs to. That's how I applied new images before the ota.zip files were made available - but now with the zip it'll overwrite files unconditionally, again without wiping anything.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] gtsfreak:
K will try it
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ale_191:
in my Nexus is present a pixel row on bottom of the screen when unlocking with fingerprint. This bug is only with r12 and r13...

3- re-press power button for power off screen

4- unlock with fingerprint
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] rezz93:
Same problem here. Flashed from Franco app and phone rebooted and stuck on Google Screen.

Rebooted to recovery and tried that but had the same problem.

Reverted to r12 and okay.

I didn't wipe anything with 13 so may try that later today.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] rezz93:
Updated Pure Nexus rom and then updated Franco 13 okay from TWRP.

Cool suggestion, but this young fella wrote:

So why go the detour when everything is already in place? [emoji6]

Guy or gal should learn what his or her tools are able to do instead of asking for basic directions and on top of that, in a custom Kernel thread already. Answering defeats the purpose and flattens his or her learning curve.

[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION]

What's a higher throttling limit which can still be used safely?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
There's no "safe" value, the device will shut down under extreme temperatures anyway. Increasing the limit will make the big cluster not shutting down so easily, but the little cores will be throttled to death and performance will suffer.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] :
I love love love love love love love looooovvvvvveee r13! Thanks Franco!! ?✌
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Koboldchen:
Same for me, I still get a serious lag sometimes, especially after using the camera or other memory intensive apps. R11 was the last perfect build for me.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] BS86:
no problems here, even pokemon go in AR mode (camera on) works without stutters/lag and also when closing them there is no lag. But I have no facecrap apps installed (they lagged every phone I had)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I don't know, I can't reproduce :(
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] LBN1:
Same here on r13 a lot of lag; went back to r12 and all good again.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Something's derped on your end, because I made a lot of adjustments on r13 to boost performance up a notch, it's like night and day compared to r12.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] redsmith:
Hello Franco, any plans to include the newest LED patch that enables all colors? (orange, some shades of green... etc.) Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Disregard, I hadn't noticed all colors are indeed enabled, my bad.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] pkadavid:
Gotta agree. I was happy with R12, but R13 has been even better. Both performance and battery life have been improved.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] BS86:
to all fellow Pokemon Go players: With the FKU we can improve our battery life!

I made a per-app profile, in which I set:

the thermal throttle to 15° (big cluster is off with that, it is not needed for Pokemon)

Little Cluster max freq: 960MHz, althoug lower values should also be just enough

little Cluster boost: 864MHz

GPU Max Freq to 367MHz (have not tried 300MHz yet)

And applied the profile to the Pokemon Go app. It loads a bit slower but still fast enough.

My battery life is significantly better, and now my small powerbank is able to charge the phone while playing, with default settings, the battery was getting down although it was connected.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nlabrad:
Is it normal to have a quieter vibration after installing the kernel? I'm on latest stock rom, r13. Vibration feels turned down like 50%. Not sure if an issue or if expected. Thanks.

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] khanjui:
You are right. That's also good news for me because I enjoyed this ROM on my Nexus 4 too. Franco and all other kernels must work.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Stevica Smederevac:
Now they does but in Mako times there were always separate kernels for cm and aosp. Don't miss those days at all :D
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Molitro:
I have a problem, which is probably due to me overlooking some silly thing, but per-app profiles won't work.

I recall when I used them back in the day that a message pops up telling you a profile's activated, and I noticed that didn't happen this time.

Sure enough I checked and the phone was still using cpu steps it shouldn't.

Tried to used other profiles with other apps to the same result.

I'm using r13 with pure Nexus, is there some known incompatibility or problem or something?

Swiftkey'd from my Nexus 5X
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] croccio:

Hey [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] is there a way to bring FAT (not FAT32) support to this kernel?

I have to work with a device I'd like to mount using an OTG adaptor, but the device is FAT-only and thus fails to properly mount.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Rule nr1 of FK: if the device doesn't have native double tap to wake, I'm not adding support for it. It creates more problems than their worth, been there, done that.

I just double checked, I have NTFS R/W support already enabled. It also supports VFAT (which I believe is the old FAT from Windows 95). It should work tbh.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] JJHunterx:
I had a strange issue after I flashed r14...device ignored media volume settings. Plugging in headphones did not channel the audio through the headphones. Restored backup boot.img with r11 and it fixed the issue.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
All merged commits are from Google, I don't see how that is even related to r14.

the mentioned warning appears due to an opened bootloader and is triggered by the bootloader itself, not because of a kernel other than stock is installed.

by just flashing the bootloader of MTC19Z the patch should work again and the warning disappears.

Hi Franco! Why don't you post highlights of your kernel? Something like "battery life up to 30?,, "smoother animation", "corrected autobrightness"? I read like first 20 and last 20 pages of this thread, checked your g+ and didn't find any overview like this.

For me personally it's the very first experience with custom kernels. I used amplify and greenify before, now I added Franco kernel without additional tweeks and really impressed with battery life. 2 hours of streaming audiobook through bluetooth in my car, 1 hour of gps, texting through viber, whatsup and fb messenger and hanging in twitter, facebook and instagram during the work day. And I still have 30-40% of battery when I come home. I wasn't able to achieve these results with amplify and greenify alone. Thx Franco! I even sent back to amazon new car charger - i don't need it)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Because I don't want people to read 39487394 things and then be biased about their results and I can't guess everyone will have the same battery savings - we all use our phones differently, have different signal coverages etc etc.
