Kylo.R14.M.angler.UBER4.9, Heimdall_v4, latest Dirty Unicorns weekly. Pretty heavy usage (for me at least) between Hangouts, Plus Messenger, Fenix, XDA, Reddit, and Twitch. Would have snapped more screenshots but I passed out for an hour while my phone charged lol. I am now running Kylo.R14.M.angler.UBER7.0 right now with Heimdall_v4, going to try that for a few days then try out Dark Side.
[Nexus 6P General] pro4ever:
Nathan whats the difference between asop ,uber, 4.9,6.0, 7.0?
[Nexus 6P General] Tylog:
The Toolchain . Aosp / Uber Toolchain , and 4.9 / 6.0 / 7.0 is the Version Number from Uber

Disabling Ambient Display and DayDream gave me 20 min of SoT, thats something most people forgett about.....
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
You mean adaptive brightness? Doesn't ambient display have all black screen so the LED's aren't turned on?
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
I think his point is, you know Ambient Display can be annoying sometimes specially when you move the phone a little or when you receive a notification. It keeps lighting up the display periodically.

Well generally speaking its tearing itself apart just to inform you there is a notification or to show the clock and I think that prevents the phone from deep sleeping. Also uses the sensors and display.

Ambient Display is more likely designed for people working behind a desk. If you are moving a lot or you're at a party or just a heavy user, this feature can surely be annoying.
[Nexus 6P General] Juzman:
That's fair enough. I've never noticed it to be annoying enough to disable it. That's why I thought he meant adaptive brightness due to making the screen brighter and using sensors to scan light change.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
Lol i meant that battery icon:D
[Nexus 6P General] gbert15:
Oh haha! I believe pure Nexus has it enabled and so I just had to download the 3minit battery app! ??
[Nexus 6P General] molepole:
My fingerprint unlock lags a second behind after it has been idle for a while. I'm using the latest Pure Nexus with Kylo kernel and Heimdall v4 interactive settings. Also set on siops if that helps with anything. Anyone come across something similar?
[Nexus 6P General] eqbirvin:
I understand the difference between the different UBER versions but whats the difference between aosp and uber toolchains? (ive tried searching and ive had no luck)
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:

Hey when I flash Kylo Kernel it seems that it keeps my device awake even when the screen is off. Any ideas?
[Nexus 6P General] sjandroiddeveloper:
How do you think it keeps the device awake?

A kernel does not keep a device awake , wakelocks do. Check your rogue apps and remove them
[Nexus 6P General] molepole:
Not sure why either. After installing everything and not paying attention to the issue, I did a full reset. I flashed PureNexus, then I flash opengapps pico, then the only thing I installed was betterbatterystats. So I have 0 apps not even Camera or Clock. I monitored the awake portion of the android battery breakdown and left it for a bit before I flashed the kylo kernel. The arrow in the screenshot is when I flashed kylo kernel.
[Nexus 6P General] sjandroiddeveloper:
In betterbatterystats see which apps are causing partial wakelocks ( if any)

Also better....... also shows how much the device was awake while screen is off, take a look at that too
[Nexus 6P General] molepole:
Well now it's 27% Awake since 2 hours in. It'll go higher because I installed the kernel mid wayish. I might just hit up elemental x for now as I didn't have issues with that before. Really did want to try out kylo though :(
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
1. Which version of Kylo did you install ? Whats the file name

2. Maybe you have Zram disabled? You can install Ex Kernel and find out.

3.Why don't you install Wakelock Detector ? Go to settings and enable Advanced. Then post some screenshots.

I think you had bad luck with Kylo but it doesn't mean its broken. A kernel doesn't keep your device awake. The only time this happened to me was when I disabled ZRam.

I know you feel home with ElementalX. But Kylo is an awesome kernel you should try it. xSilas43 the one who made most custom profiles (Darkspice, Eclipse, Darkside,...) you find in this thread uses Kylo. That should give you an idea.
[Nexus 6P General] rage77:
I'm just amazed!

(Dirty Unicorn weekly 15/4, Kylo kernel 14 aosp, Heimdal V4)
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
That's some serious results

What's your setup other than the profile?

I mean io read ahead and all

Also do you use Greenify or any app like that?

[Nexus 6P General] rage77:
Everything left to default, no greenify just that setup I posted totally vanilla. Three cycles with the first two with varying results (probably stabilizing) and now this.

Usage; heavy music streaming (with Viper4android 4.8 sony), heavy youtubing, some browsing, reddit, hangouts, Telegram,

I've never seen anything like this on this phone. I'm staying with this setup! :victory:
[Nexus 6P General] zeeBomb:
Does anyone here undervolt their 6p? If so, by how much?
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
I'm actually confused about first cycles. Sometimes its very good and then it starts getting worst. You see very good results ( 6+ SOT ) on first cycles and it starts dropping like 30min SOT with each cycle.

And sometimes its the vice versa.

Hm...Whats going on
[Nexus 6P General] nathanchance:
You won't want to undervolt (or overvolt) on this device. The 810 dynamically adjusts voltages and they are low enough as it is.
[Nexus 6P General] molepole:
Can Kernel Settings be saved in EX Kernel Manager for specific kernels? Like last night before I went to be I installed ElementalX kernel and it didn't wake once over night. Maybe I did something wrong with the governer settings and disabled something however I reset all settings in EX while I was using Kylo and the issue still persisted. Since I know EX works now, I'll give kylo another shot and download it fresh etc.

Below is the battery history details after installing EX.

*edit*

Seems like I've downloaded the Kylo.R15.angler.aosp4 when I guess I should have downloaded the r16.M.angler?
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
That could be a possibility. Like maybe when you restore Exkernel app using titanium backup it applies the changes u made last time.

By the way dont flash custom kernels over other custom kernels. Always start fresh. That means do a clean wipe and reflash your ROM and other things and then flash the kernel.

And judging from the Kylo.R15.angler.aosp4 file name you used I believed you've flashed the kernel which was intended for android N. You should pick the ones with a M in the title.
[Nexus 6P General] molepole:
I don't restore anything and I always reflash fresh after I delete everything except I do leave Internal Storage intact. Does Pure Nexus use a custom kernel or is it the stock one? It does say Linux 3.10.x but I'm not sure if that is stock. I'll be doing everything again except this time I'll flash the M version.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
I was talking about the kernel that comes with your ROM. You should flash Kylo (or any other kernel) over that.

Alright then try again and report back :)
[Nexus 6P General] pro4ever:
Nathan im on hEiMDaLL v4 what i/o are you using also readahead?
[Nexus 6P General] nathanchance:
I use sioplus 1024 on Kylo, bfq 1024 on other kernels.
[Nexus 6P General] molepole:
So I flashed the Kylo Kernel this time the Marshmallow one and it is no longer always awake :D! I'll be tweaking around now and I hope to see good results soon.
[Nexus 6P General] yung40oz84:
Go to user settings in ex kernel manager and you can add anything you want. Read ahead is at /sys/block/mmcblk0/bdi/read_ahead_kb, go there, hit open, and then set it to 1536 and apply on boot. If you go back to the Mis. settings you will see the read ahead has changed there as well.
[Nexus 6P General] Hadookie:
Just installed Kylo R16 M UBER7, am on latest PN, and running DarkSpiceR1 profile with despair governor. Is there any reason why my last core shows as offline under EXKM?

Also, for some strange reason my CPU boost options keep changing to different values than the ones applied with DarkSpiceR1

Maybe someone has posted this before but I got lost in the 200+ pages.

Best setup for performance and or gaming.

I don't care about battery, I want blazing fast.
[Nexus 6P General] th3discodancer:
Well, if you dont care about battery, put both clusters on Performance
[Nexus 6P General] tech_head:
Actually that is not the answer. Performance governor is not the answer. There are also scripts for various aspects of the kernel. I can get better performance when using interactive with tweaks. Thanks
[Nexus 6P General] molepole:
Hi, do you find that using the fingerprint sensor takes a bit longer than normal? When I try to unlock/fingerprint after a minute or two of inactivity, it takes a second or two longer.

Anyone else get this? I'm on Pure Nexus with Kylo Kernel.
[Nexus 6P General] rage77:
Not noticing any lag there no.
[Nexus 6P General] nathanchance:
I seem to recall people saying this was something up with the interactive governor. It has happened on multiple kernels and the two ROMs I have used.

[Nexus 6P General] molepole:
I might give Despair a go since there is a bit of talk here and there. Do I leave governor options on stock and change both clusters to despair?
[Nexus 6P General] nathanchance:
Yeah that should work fine. You may consider trying out the Dark Side profile as well, it's been performing well for me so far.
[Nexus 6P General] molepole:
Sorry to keep asking questions but I just want to make sure I got it down packed. Are all these settings the correct ones?

[Nexus 6P General] tracerit:

[Nexus 6P General] nathanchance:
I use Kylo the most and I like both Heimdall v4 and Dark Side, I get pretty similar results with both.

See above :good:
[Nexus 6P General] Ofthecats:
At the moment, it has been discovered that conservative based governors can't have their values changed, and dark side uses despair which is conservative based. They seem to revert on suspend.

I'd wait until maybe despair announces this though.

Also, always check op before asking questions. And yes, dark side is for kylo
[Nexus 6P General] molepole:
So I got ~3 hours of SOT with these stats. I think if I didn't listed to spotify on loud speaker for ~3.5 hours it would have translated to 5 hours but I'm not sure. Anything else you guys think I need to have a look at?
[Nexus 6P General] Rahhfue:
What do you guys think about servicely ?

I've been trying it out for some time but didn't see much of a change , but now after clean flashing a newer version of DU and not having servicely installed I see a big breakdown in my SoT...

I don't think it's the ROM or the newer kylo kernel and beside that I left everything as it was....

Can I use a script like these without a Kernel tool? Only with SH script? I use Franco Kernel at the Moment.
[Nexus 6P General] ONeVmaniac:
Sure thing, thats what these scripts are all about. Just make sure your kernel has touchboost off. I believe Franco has it disabled by default.

[Nexus 6P General] nathanchance:
I have been really enjoying Heimdall v4 lately. Never had any lag and it sips battery.

Most scripts (.sh files) will disable touchboost as part of their routine. You would need to manually disable it if you were using EXKM profiles. Pretty sure you are right about touchboost being disabled automatically in FK.

Has anyone tried both Loki and Vidar? Giving both a shot this weekend. Have been loving Heimdall the past few weeks but wanted to try something different.

2) I don't have any screenshot right now. Anyway my SOT is never above 4:30h independent of the profile in use. I have bad reception and too many apps keeping the phone awake.

3) Yes, just remove the txt extension and copy to EX gov profiles folder.

I tried Loki with elementalx and it worked great in terms of battery, it's pretty snappy too but imo not as smooth as ghost pepper and heimdall v4.

But I always preferred kylo (don't ask me why) I couldn't use Loki anymore.

As kylo implemented elemental gov in latest v17 I'm happy to try it again. Looking good so far, gonna see on a work day tomorrow.

As always try it on your own, what works great for me won't always work alike for others (different apps and usage patterns)
[Nexus 6P General] Ofthecats:
I haven't confirmed this myself, but others in telegram chat for despair development have reported that big cluster reverts to default governor values after entering sleep. I'm unsure if this only occurs on angler or not.

I have no further information on this, sorry. Please join the chat and ask! [emoji1]

More details on Franco

Thanks for making this thread corn dude. I have franco kernel on the 6P, so I dropped a line on Alcolawl's thread to make sure I was interpreting all the inputs correctly. He was pretty helpful, although I get the idea that I'm not the only person kicking his tires for clarification.. It seems like there are a lot more settings available within the interactive governor control than those listed by Alcolawl; do you have any ideas on the best way to populate them?

[Nexus 6P General] rdoane:
This might be a dumb question but when using Loki are you switching the governor of the small cluster to ElementalX? Thanks in advance!

Yes for sure if you see that's what it uses as the little governor and interactive for bigger one

Cheers :cool:
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
That's good. I feel like Loki can guarantee a minimum of 6hours sot
[Nexus 6P General] threshfire:
I apologize if this has been discussed, but I'm having the hardest time understanding how to use a terminal/shell to run sh scripts.

EDIT: Never mind, I found it in post #227, xSilas43 indicated that the "easiest way to execute is to open up a terminal and type"

I see the changes within EXKM, but the settings revert to something else on reboot? I think this is normal, but is there a way around it? I have all the necessary items in blue (load on boot).
[Nexus 6P General] xSilas43:
if apply on boot is ticked exkm should definitely be applying them, maybe try reflashing your kernel.
[Nexus 6P General] threshfire:
I've been running Heimdall's Loki profile, and I think EXKM doesn't play very nice with profiles that use governors other than interactive, like despair, (ironically) elementalx, or any combination that's not interactive/interactive after a reboot. I'll check with the EXKM thread, but thanks for your suggestion and for the hard work on the great profiles!!

---------- Post added at 06:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:59 PM ----------

I tried Gryfalcon a few times,it's smooth but battery drains pretty fast.I think DarkSpice or HeimDall are currently the best 2 profiles what speed and battery goes.But that's ofc just my personal opinion and how I use my device.Can be very different for you.

Is anyone able to keep the governors for profiles like DarkSide (despair/despair) and Loki (elementalx/elementalx) to stick on reboot with EXKM? I've set it with the sh file and within EXKM, but each reboot, the governors are back to interactive/interactive.
[Nexus 6P General] Half Man Half Biscuit:
All ok here.

I just open EXKM go to cpu,load which profile I want to use,press apply at boot,reboot and it sticks everytime.

Haven't had problems with profiles not sticking.

Did you consider after you choose which profile you want,to go back and press on little+big cluster apply on boot so they'll stick?

Just an idea but you'll probably have to do it for everything then that the profile changed.

What's your guys preference with elemental x kernel? For battery life
[Nexus 6P General] Half Man Half Biscuit:
Hmmmm best 2 for me so far where DarkSpice R7.5 and HeimDall.

But I'm already using Loki for 4 days now,and the more I use it the better my battery life gets.

I got yesterday with Loki 8h47min SOT (I'm no gamer,normal usage like Youtube,music,a lot of Google+...)

Ofc this is for my usage,it all depends how you use your phone and what apps you use.Might try going around on a few,maybe try a new profile every 4-5 days and see which one works best for your usage and test.

I just never game,rest I use my phone like everyone else pretty much.

But I always had really good SOT with this phone.
[Nexus 6P General] th3discodancer:
Im shocked because thats pretty much how i use my phone, lol

You probably have a special device, sir.
[Nexus 6P General] Half Man Half Biscuit:
I'm surprised that people say when they get 5h SOT that it's great.

However I use my phone I can get easily over 7h30min.

Posted a few times pictures for some guys,too.

Tho,can it be because I ALWAYS clean flash?

I never once did a dirty flash or changed something without a complete wipe and then clean install.That's why I never encounter any issues that guys daily encounter when flashing ROMs.

Plus I have only 55 apps installed and probably 10 from those 55 aren't really used but yea.

I see guys installing over 200 apps,seriously for what do you need them all?

Probably 5 different keyboards,10 photo apps etc...no wonder you'll have problems constantly.
[Nexus 6P General] th3discodancer:
I ALWAYS clean flash too! Theoretically, i do everything that should ideally fetch me the best SOT and I'm one of those people who will say that 6hrs is a great SOT.

I dont however use any mods, I've been giving these scripts a try since months, but nothing does wonders to me. Any kernel i try, any script i try.. it just doesn't fetch me something as high an SOT as yours.

The best i got was 8hrs. and that was just ONE time.

And for ****'s sake, i dont remember which script i was trying those days.

Ever since then, making it upto 5hrs seems to be great.

Recently, though, it's gotten even less than that.
