[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] so now that the Nexus 5x won't receive any new security patches or software updates from Google, due to the end of the guaranteed support period, will you also stop developing your kernel for this device? May I ask about your plans about it?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
When there are new things to add/improve I'll keep doing it. But I doubt this device will receive many improvements in the future. The chip is crap, the display response rate looks like a bloody monitor from the early 80s, and the battery is just ok. The only thing that saves it is the camera, it's really good even for today's standards. So yeah, don't expect magic :(
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] jcmm11:
Can you at least keep wireguard up to date?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Wireguard updates itself every time the Kernel is compiled, it fetches directly from their HEAD.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] jcmm11:
Yeah - but if you stop compiling and releasing the kernel then there won't be any updates ?

It is time for me to get a new phone, but that probably won't happen for a few more months. Plus I have to decide what to get - and the fact that you won't be supporting Pixel 3s doesn't make that choice any easier ?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
OnePlus 6T is a good choice without destroying your bank account.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] jcmm11:
That's one option I'm considering. Still going to have to wait a while though.

Does this kernel support Android Pie ???

Edit: Flashed through FK manager app and it's working great

Glad to have this Kernel on Pie as I was using it on Oreo

That was a great experience ?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nARMstrong20:
Currently using it on the latest PE ROM and it is working fine so far for me too.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yup r64 is out! The performance on this device is so jarringly bad I made some adjustments to make it more bearable.

Auto-flash with my app here http://get.franciscofranco.xyz or get it from the OP :)

Interestingly, I thought my phone was performing quite good, haha. But I don't have a newer one for reference, that might be the reason.

Hi. I have original ROM, with root and frankokernel, but today I became an ota Security Update. Normally I thought that can not happen. Can it cause anything wrong if I install it?

Thank you very much for the kernel. The kernel is great. I bought the updater app too, but still can't find the description the list of profiles on the governor profile section (hawtail, butterfly, etc). Where i can find it? Thank you.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Zander_Sig:
LOL

Bummer! Glad I waited.. hehehe... So what kernels are available? Here it just says Nexus 5 - https://kernels.franco-lnx.net/Nexus5/8.1.0/

That should really say Nexus5X so people don't do a soft brick... correct?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] shhnedo:
Mate, you're looking at the right kernel for your device. You're just asking in the wrong FORUM SECTION. That's why we all thought "boy is this guy in for a surprise..." .

New FK Kernel Manager 3.11 update! Get it here -> https://francokernel.app

1. Now you can basically flash any .zip from the Manual Flasher. Fonts? Yes! Magisk modules? Yes! Rip custom recovery unless you need to flash a rom;

2. Battery Monitor has been improved, now it shows better amp calculation, discharging value and the wattage!

3. Hey Pocophone users, thermal profiles now added to Per-App Profiles!

4. Disabling ZRAM on boot wasn't working. Now it is!

5. You can now store Kernels on your external storage!

There's a couple of other fixes & improvements but I ran out of chars space to write them ?

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I hope it can help your wife's phone battery life!

Probably fixed in the next FKUpdater's release, today.

Thank you very much!!!

I don't know where you checked that, but cores on this arch are synced to each other, either they're all boosted, or they aren't. On stock Kernel the 4 little cores go to 1248MHz for 1,5s, and the big cores to 864MHz for sometime around 0,5 to 1s. Here in FK I do things a little bit differently. Each frequency step wastes X power when used. The Big cluster uses around ~4x more power than the little cluster while comparing the same freq on both. So what I did was, if the big cluster has 0 tasks running, we don't boost it, so we save a LOT of power that way (there's no point in boosting the big cluster every time you touch the display if there's nothing to boost). Because of those savings we can boost the little cluster to its max frequency and still be way below the power usage of the big cluster input_boost_freq (764MHz I think). Even more, I boost it for 750ms while stock boosts for 1500ms.

This was thought out, I didn't pull this out of my arse :)

It's not over yet ;)

255 255 255 for RGB 255 for Saturation

Probably a bug on the app, should be fixed on 14.0.2 going out today.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] drdrewdown:
her biggest issue is mostly performance related. In my time figuring out her beefs I"ve noticed the two big cores going offline frequently due to CPU temp. I've adjusted her thermal settings which help some but struggling to get her to enjoy the phone.

& OMG if she uses snapchat, it's all over with. CPU temp jumps like 10deg F & offlines big cores quickly. I really don't know if it's bad hardware & we need to RMA or if snapchat really just sucks that bad (both perhaps)

she makes comments all the time about "i can't believe google decided to release this phone"

offered to get her a 6p but she loves the size of the 5x lol

kept tellin her, "wait to see if Franco ends up with the 5x & can work his magic"

thanks again
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Well, I've done a lot to make sure cpus are not doing more work than they need to, hopefully that'll help her case. Let me know what happens afterwards, I'm very curious.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] drdrewdown:
I'll steal her phone tonight & get it setup, will report feedback. :cool:
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] gleggie:
Are u on the latest version of snapchat? Early on, snapchat was basically unusable for me bc for whatever reason it wasn't optimized for Marshmallow but lately the recent app updates have mostly fixed snapchat for me. And yes thermal throttling seems to be an issue with this phone but I think it can be fixed or at least improved (maybe?)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ViRb3:
And he did it again! I cannot express my thanks for not forgetting the N5X community like many other devs do with the N6P in the picture. I have already donated by buying your app and I will probably do again when I have the money to! I've always trusted your work and I will do it once again.

Big kudos to you.

EDIT: Just to clarify: FK is not compatible with the stable, system-installed SuperSU versions? Only the 2.60+ (system-less) versions?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] HipsterCode:
Nice implementation. I did not know that each core is in sync so that is a little surprise to me and that's why I asked. So far your implementation is the best I have found.

Thank you for your work :good:
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] drdrewdown:
yeah, always latest. I agree it was unusable at the beginning, she was on the beta program but i opted her out of that to see if any improvements from "stable" release.. i'd say it helped a bit but still does crazy things to CPU temp & ends up throttling/offlining cores. I know they update that app all the time but never really say what's changed or fixed (it's a terrible app imo)

stupid part is she never used snapchat ONCE until she got this phone & now she can't live without it.. :highfive: i keep threatening to remove snapchat from her phone but in reality that shouldn't be the "fix" lol
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] gleggie:
Haha well there is a chance it could be hardware related, maybe u just got a bad 5x. So if you can have Google send a replacement, maybe you could get better luck. So far my 5x has performed well. Not blazing fast or anything but fast enough for me.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] crafty35a:
Has anyone tried installing this with CM13 yet? I'm getting stuck at the boot animation. I wonder if it's because I was previously on Elemental X kernel? My process was to flash the image via fastboot, boot to recovery, install SuperSU 2.65, wipe cache/dalvik, reboot.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] drdrewdown:
thanks for the input, that may the the route we take if her problems continue... if no other reason than to make sure/get proof her specific device isn't problematic. reddit has several threads about 5x performance, throttling/offlining, etc & much of it has mentions of snapchat lol but it's not only snapchat, sometimes her camera won't load (likely due to low memory) after clearing all apps it'll load but sometimes takes 15 seconds to figure out what it's doing.. I've seen her use it she's not making it up it's just really weird as i've never seen such bad performance on a new nexus either.

---------- Post added at 02:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 PM ----------

it's likely a ramdisk problem, but to be sure. Dirty Flash your Rom/Gapps & then Franco kernel+SuperSU to make sure any trace of EX kernel is removed. Then you'll know for sure if it's a ramdisk issue or user error :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] vampire36:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24341993505161513

Use this...problem with N5x is it throttles way to early...something like 43 degrees for big core...this zip just increases the throttle to around 50...:)

This should help reduce the severeness of the prob...
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] crafty35a:
Still no luck, unfortunately, ~25 minutes at the boot animation after doing this.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Won't boot on CM13 because they use a different ramdisk.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] drdrewdown:
yeah i've already made those changes (albeit manually) & it's helped but still not "great"
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] largeselection:
Woohoo I'm excited to try this! I'm currently using the settings from that "Advanced Interactive Governor Tweaks" thread. I'm assuming I should just use this as it is without changing all those settings right?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] mprziv:
Franco, do you plan to implement color profiles in a future update?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Just use my setup for a couple days before using something else. It'll give you a baseline.

What do you mean? You can change display color values if you want.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] bobby janow:
I think he means those gamma profiles from the n5.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] jerdog:
Thanks [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] for this - excited to use it on my n5x. I do have a question though - could you provide your suggested combination that you've seen works really well as a good baseline for your FrancoKernel app?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] iPwn_:
So about those freezes/reboot I mentioned before, I re-enabled both wakelocks but I've had the device freeze/bootloop or just randomly reboot 25 or 30 times in the past two days... so I'm not convinced bluesleep or bluedroid are causing it.

I had the device save kmsg and logcat to text files as it ran, because I could not for the life of me replicate the issue while it was still connected to my computer. I always noticed it freezing and rebooting when I pulled it out of my pocket downstairs or outside.

And for whatever reason, I can't pull a last_kmsg after the crash happens from SysLog or terminal.

So I attached what I got in the moment of the last crash. Hopefully it helps.

More curiously, I ran ElementalX for a day and it never happened.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Hey dude! Well, I usually ship my Kernel binaries with the best balanced configuration I can find, which is exactly the same settings I use. But depending on what your goal is we can play a little bit. If you want to have the big cluster not going offline because of thermals just to go Kernel settings -> Temperature threshold and set it to a crazy high value. Default is 46ºC. The cores will thermal throttle as normal, but they won't go offline if the board gets a little hot - it should help performance in sustained load. If you want a little more scrolling smoothness or less chance of losing one frame here & there you can go to Cpu Manager -> Cpu boost and increase input_boost_ms to something like 750 or 1000 (the value is in ms). Stock boosts for 1500. There's more you can do, but I don't know what kind of setup you want to achieve :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I don't find a single error in those logs. Can you tell me a bit more about your setup? Are you using xposed? A little more info will go a long way. Is it a soft reboot (starts rebooting in the Android loading screen) or hard reboot (reboots from the early Google logo).
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] bioLIFE:
noob question probobly, but i swore i saw the high perf cluster max freq set to highest which is 1824, but for some reason when i checked it again it went to 633. is it just me, or it really goes to that value when the phone is hot? but i never saw it went back to the highest freq..help?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
It's throttled to 633MHz when it's really hot, but then it goes back to its default after it cools down.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] bioLIFE:
i see...tnx [MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION]...i just installed your stuff and bought your fku couple of hours ago :) so far im happy with it..still have a long way to go tho, will update if will notice some issues...tnx again man!
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] andresee:
Have issues with haptic vib and sound staying set. They will go back to kernel default after reboot. I do have them set to be set at boot. Just letting you know. Kernel is running so smooth. Thanks for your work.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Every time? How are you rebooting?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Criton30:
You mean with "Stock boosts for 1500" the "boost_ms" ?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] andresee:
With your reboot app ;) Or the adv reboot from cataclysm or with tasker. Every time it resets to default. If its just me then no worries but if its happening to others then just letting you know.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] jerdog:
Gotcha - yeah I made a few minor changes to the governor and scheduler but going to keep it stock as you shipped to see the end result over the weekend. I will say it's noticeably better battery life so far. Good work mate.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Stock doesn't use Cpu-boost for that, it goes through the PowerHal but yes, it boosts for 1500ms.

Yeah theres something odd since Lollipop where BOOT_COMPLETED doesn't seem to work properly when "force rebooting".
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] vCoast:
Ok so i did a full reset using the mmb29p factory image and flashed twrp 2.2.7.2 set everything up then flashed SuperSu 2.46 from twrp booted good so I ran the autoflash from fku and it installed then bootloop after that what am I missing?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] TheLastSidekick:
For a little while I wondered if I had made the wrong choice getting the 5X over the 6P (because I highly disliked the size of the phone) but after a factory flashing and r4, Im glad I stuck it through. 5X has potential to unlock and your kernel is proof of that in its entirety.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] andresee:
Feel the same... Thankful to Devs like Franco.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
It says in the OP you need SuperSu 2.60 or newer -_-
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] babtron:
I might have missed it and I apologize if I have, but can I flash this over another custom kernel?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Currently, yes, since it is a full boot.img. In the near future, you will need to dirty flash your ROM or boot.img if you are on stock.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] dskvml:
How do you proceed after flashing a new kernel version? What would be the easiest way to be rooted again? At the moment i simply flash the SuperSU zip with my laptop. I am wondering if i can gain root easier again?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] andresee:
Flash kernel then flash SU 2.67 in recovery then boot to system. You will be on what ever kernel you flashed and be rooted.

Hello, I don't know how is it on stock kernel, but I am using V4A and sometimes have I part, when goes V4A disabled, sometimes it come back in few seconds and sometimes have I to launch app again. Could you do any workaround, that V4A'll be forced and in any case won't be disabled?

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5X mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] iPwn_:
It's a hard reboot after the device locks up with zero touch response for a few seconds. And sometimes it doesn't even make it to the lock screen and instead locks up on the Android loading screen.

I'm not running xposed, and the only root apps I have are AdAway, FKU, SimpleReboot, and Solid Explorer. Using stock ROM.

The only change I've made to anything is an su.d script that binds /su/etc/hosts to /system/etc/hosts so I can use AdAway without breaking Android Pay.

And that script has two setprop commands to enable EIS and set is_type to 4.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
V4A doesn't work with stock. All the necessary modifications are already in place inside FK's ramdisk, so if something else is derping for you it must be something else and you should take it to V4A's thread.

That's odd. Can you try and capture that crash log for me? After it reboots grab /sys/fs/pstore/console_ramoops
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] mhrussell1:
I am having an intermittent problem and I wonder if it is kernel related. After running several hours, I notice that I have no network service. If I toggle airplane mode, the service (Verizon LTE) returns for about 60 seconds then off again. If I power cycle then the network service returns for several hours. I have not noticed correlation with any particular condition of the phone or network. I am running latest kernel and latest Chroma ROM.

It sounds like you aren't waiting long enough for it to "sleep". When at work and at home (the only places I have WiFi), if I leave it alone long enough, WiFi will shut off while asleep and reconnect within 3-5 seconds of the screen being on.

Sorry if that doesn't answer your question?
