Its a problem with the hacky version of viper4android you're using, use the official apk that doesn't combine things with viper4android and youll be fine. Or you have a lot of background services running but more likely the first option.

It drains faster on the go because your phone won't enter doze when its moving.
[Nexus 6P General] km00000:
My phone is never going into deep sleep. Seems like Google Play Services is once again screwing up my battery life. Even though I have keep awake disabled in App Ops.

Do people get better SOT with DarkSide then Butterfly/GhostPepper?
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Yeah in my case its better than those.

Actually I'm using Darkside atm and my battery is at 93% with 45min SOT (mostly chrome)

For Kylo Kernel do you guys use EX manager to apply the profiles or a similar app
[Nexus 6P General] Badger50:
I use EXKM all the time on Kylo without issue :)
[Nexus 6P General] chefp2010:
Kylo asop uber is stellar with darkside 4.9 version that is
[Nexus 6P General] dakore:
Small addition to my previous post: after testing Darkside with Kylo kernel, few days ago I reverted to franco kernel with powersaving profile (my default setup). Since latest r15 update I got slightly better Sot than with Darkside R1 and way less stuttering (see my post below).
[Nexus 6P General] chefp2010:
What lag?
[Nexus 6P General] dakore:
Noticeable when free scrolling in tapatalk, g+, youtube, instagram. It feels like ocasional stuttering and it's not related to content loading from internet. It happens even when content is preloaded and scrolling up/down. I could live with that, no big deal, but main reason I reverted back is no significant gain in battery life for my type of usage and disabled thermal protections.
[Nexus 6P General] chefp2010:
Were you using kylo 6.0 or the Aosp uber 4.9.... I noticed some lag as well when I was using the 6.0 version of kylo and the switched to the 4.9 version and then the lag was gonna and a lot snappier give it a go ....
[Nexus 6P General] dakore:
I used aosp uber 4.9 due to bad comments on latest 6.0 branch. I wrote all setup details in my last two posts ;)

When i load a Profil in EXKM (for example EclipseR3), must i load it in both Cluster, or it is enough when i load it in little Cluster?

Getippt mit nem Nexus 6p
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Just 1.

Actually the Little/Big Cluster dropbox has nothing to do with loading profiles.
[Nexus 6P General] messiahfreedom:
To apply ghostpepper, I just go to the EX kernel manager, go to cpu > governor options, chose both little and big cluster, and load Ghostpepper, right? Should I just leave the app after that and observe the battery life? And do I have to set both clusters to ghostpepper or just one? I am a little confused as to how to set this governor.
[Nexus 6P General] nathanchance:
When you load a governor profile, it applies it to both the little and the big cluster. Yes, just leave the app and observe your battery usage with the EXKM battery monitor so you can see your percent drain per hour.

[MENTION=5323968]xSilas43[/MENTION]

Could you give me some light on some turnables? I read about them but not quite get it.

I see some of your profiles have the go_hispeed_load set to 200 or 250.

Isn't this the cpu load at which the CPU will jump to hispeed_freq? If so, how can it be higher than 100(%)? Is it so it never jumps to hispeed_freq?

Also I don't get why setting a -1 value to timer_slack. Wouldn't this drain more battery than setting it to the default 80000?

Thanks in advance,
[Nexus 6P General] xSilas43:
There the -1 just allows the governer to scale freely IIRC and from what I read, on a cpu with multiple cores 100 is the max load for one core, so with 200, when 2 cores are are fully loaded it will just to hispeed freq.
[Nexus 6P General] lucfig:
I see, interesting, didn't know it worked like this with nultiple cores. Do you have any place I can read more about that?

About the timer_slack, here is some documentation I found. Can't guarantee it is correct.

timer_rate: Sample rate for reevaluating CPU load when the CPU is not

idle. A deferrable timer is used, such that the CPU will not be woken

from idle to service this timer until something else needs to run.

(The maximum time to allow deferring this timer when not running at

minimum speed is configurable via timer_slack.).

timer_slack: Maximum additional time to defer handling the governor

sampling timer beyond timer_rate when running at speeds above the

minimum. For platforms that consume additional power at idle when

CPUs are running at speeds greater than minimum, this places an upper

bound on how long the timer will be deferred prior to re-evaluating

load and dropping speed. For example, if timer_rate is 20000uS and

timer_slack is 10000uS then timers will be deferred for up to 30msec

when not at lowest speed. A value of -1 means defer timers

indefinitely at all speeds.

My understanding is that the bigger the number, the more time the cpu is allowed at higher freqs without dropping speed.
[Nexus 6P General] drolgnir:
It's frustrating to load profiles in EXM and wonder if it's working. I loaded a profile and applied it plus reboot. Installed kernel auditor to check values and it doesn't look like EXM applied anything. Anyone experience this? I'm using kylo r13 uber 4.9
[Nexus 6P General] xSilas43:
This is one of the articles i read which gave me a lot of insight on cpu loading http://blog.scoutapp.com/articles/2009/07/31/understanding-load-averages

Do you have apply on boot ticked for the variables?
[Nexus 6P General] drolgnir:
Yeah I load the script, say ghost pepper or another exkm built in script and hit apply on boot. I see the script load into governor options, set apply on boot and reboot. I'm about to try again.
[Nexus 6P General] peconaut:
Does anyone know if any of this tweaks would work with Franco's kernel
[Nexus 6P General] nathanchance:
Theoretically, any kernel with the interactive governor should be able to take advantage of these tweaks. Some require specific governors (like Dark Side) but if it uses the interactive governor, it should work.
[Nexus 6P General] xSilas43:
Try reflashimg your kernel and reinstalling exkm.
[Nexus 6P General] xperator:
Finally, for the first time I reached 7hours SOT and beyond (7h 45min SOT! to be exact)

And nope, it wasn't a conservative run, when I realized the battery showing 4h 40min SOT at 50%, I started stressing the device so i can make sure It doesn't get to 7h SOT easily but it did... Lol

[MENTION=5323968]xSilas43[/MENTION] thanks for DarkSpice7.5
[Nexus 6P General] drolgnir:
So after much rebooting I find what doesn't stay are CPU boot options like input boost freq or other settings that are outside of governor options. If I load the profile, and go around and click the apply at boot check on every setting it changes then I can use exkm. But that's lame.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sigitm:
Hi,

last week I decided to update an old falcon (european XT1032) I had at home, with already unlocked bootloader and cm11 installed.

I formatted everything in order to install latest cm13 nightly, but I discovered I had a too old bootloader.

So I updated bootloader to latest version (41.1A) and updated to latest TWRP (2.8.6.0).

So I installed CM13 nightly, wiping everything.

It booted succesfully, but I have a problem: wi-fi doesn't work.

It cannot be activated nor deactivated. It stay forever in "activating wi-fi" with the on/off button grayed out.

Also, in wi-fi advanced properties, the mac address is 02:00:00:00:00:00, which is a fake address.

It seems android cannot initialize properly the wi-fi chip.

Haven't tried yet to insert a sim card, or use bluetooth, or else... maybe they don't work too.

I tried to look to into the official cm13 thread, but it seems I'm the only one facing this problem.

I wanted to try cm12.1 also, but their downloads are no longer available in the get.cm site (404 error).

Tried with different builds of latest nightlies, also wiping system and data a lot of times, but nothing changed.

What is wrong with my falcon? Did I bricked it somehow? I have no idea on what went wrong... :confused:

I tried to rollback to a previous bootloader, but I cannot install it anymore: it says (bootloader) Preflash validation failed

(it seems to be a protection: I cannot install previous bootloader versions)

Thanks.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DPX:
Don't try to downgrade your bootloader it could brick your device!!!

Try it again with latest TWRP (2.8.7.0)!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sigitm:
I updated TWRP to latest 2.8.7.0 (notheme version), I wiped all (system, data, cache), I downloaded and installed latest nightly.. tried with or without gapps...

everytime it's always the same...

I tried inserting a sim; data connection works. Everything else works (even bluetooth).

The only thing that's not working is wi-fi, and mac address is still 02:00:00:00:00:00.

I really don't know what to do... because I don't understand what may be wrong. :crying:

Fix broken wifi in CM13

Did the same today. Came from PAC-ROM 4.4.4 with base CM11. Bootloader update to 41.1A, flash, no wifi. I managed to fix it. Don't know if every step is necessary but this is how I did it. Use TWRP as the recovery, not the CM one.

Download CM12.1 stable from the CM website

Reboot to recovery, do a factory reset

Flash CM12.1 stable

Reboot and go through the setup wizard steps, wifi should work, log into your wifi

Reboot to recovery

Flash CM13 nightly

Reboot

Now wifi should work in CM13. Seems to be something it carries over from CM12.1 that's needed.

[solved] as next post...
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hk_aquarius:
have you got this fixed?

i hope you have got TWRP back up and you did backup /persist folder.

WiFi and BT hardware address are ruined because /persist folder is gone. You need to restore it. However, TWRP cannot restore /persist folder though it formats this folder anyway.

Solution:

Get presist.ext4.win from backup, use WinZip to extract all files and folders inside persist.ext4.win

Use USB connection to copy all to Moto G's Download folder.

Use Root Explorer to copy all back to /persist

If you don't have backup of /persist folder, then your original WiFi and BT hardware address have gone. There is a workaround: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2619553

Hello guys,

I'm curious about having a raw photo option in my S5.

I know that it used to be pretty discussed topic as from Android 5 is this option possible, but Samsung somehow didn't implement it.

I'm wondering if there is any way, how to make this option avaible, with less modifications possible. I don't mind root my phone, and if there is no other option, also install some custom rom

I think that S5 have pretty good camera so why don't use it fully!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jcrompton:
I know this has been beat to death in the Hermes forum but I have found a bit of difference with my Kaiser as compared to my Hermes.

I have quite a bit of experience with the TyTN hermes tweaks to get Microsoft Voice Command to work with the Hermes but not only will the Kaiser NOT work without the tweaks - I can't get it to work with the tweaks.

I followed the exact instructions like I always have listed in the Hermes Wiki section titled Utilities and Software Tweaks (including Bluetooth Voice Command installation and the Registry changes). However after the changes I cannot initiate a Bluetooth instruction via the Bluetooth device. If I initiate the call via the handheld it works great as far as stability and sound quality.

Any suggestions?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ID64:
You don't have to do any tweaks on Kaiser! Just install VC 1.6. Assign Button 6 to Voice command. Soft reset. It should work. Works for me at least. The only think that doesn't work is a caller name announcement.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GenesysLV:
Ditto,

My Kaiser does announce incoming callers on the internal speaker when the setting is on "use bluetooth if available". I only use bluetooth with my car so I do not know what the behavior with a headset would be.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jcrompton:
Does it work so that you can push the button on your Bluetooth headset or Bluetooth car adapter and then give the Voice Command through the headset? Mine didn't work. That's why I did the tweaks.

Also can someone tell me that with just the Voice Command installed what does the following registry key have (or does it even exist)?:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\Path = ????

AND

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\BTAGExtModule = ???

Also if you go to settings and click on Voice Command - what version Voice Command do you have? I have v1.6.4622.0

Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ID64:
GenesysLV,

Can you please check build number of your VC 1.6?

Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rsolomon:
Not terribly related, but v1.60.4622.0 is what my copy reports as well - though I'm still on a Hermes. I believe that's the retail release, I've not seen any indication of another one....

Richard
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jcrompton:
I have the same version number. Is there a different place to actually check the "build" ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ID64:
If you go to VC settings, please go to about or something like that. There you will see full version number.

Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jcrompton:
yep

its the 1.6.4622.0 version
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ID64:
Thanks :) Just to confirm: you can hear callers name over your BT car handsfree?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ID64:
Hmm... Looks like I have build 1.60.4630.0
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] captainsensible2002:
Hi, I have build v1.60.4622.0 and I noticed a fundamental difference when installing to my kaiser than when installing to my Uni; no registry entries get added to:

HKLM\Software\OEM\VoiceCommand

So this means that no bluetooth interaction would work. Therefore I added:

Dword entry: LaunchAPEnable (value 0)

and

String entry: Path (value \Program Files\Voice Command\voicecmd.exe

Rebooted and now voice command is initiated fine via bluetooth headset. Haven't tested notifications yet - I think there might still be a missing reg entry but I can't remember what it is!

Hope this helps someone....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jcrompton:
Thanks. I'll try those registry changes. I hard reset last night to make sure that I got rid of all of the "tweaks" that had been done - the way I did for the Hermes.

I wonder where the other guy got version 30 instead of our version 22

I got mine from Handango - the Microsoft site doesn't have any updates except for version 1.5
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GenesysLV:
No problem. v1.6.4622.0

I should have caught up on the thread first. Just to be claer, I do not hear the callers name through my car. I do hear it only on the Kaiser's speaker.

I'd love to get the announcements working over BT. It was sporadic on my TyTN with the registry hacks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jcrompton:
THANKS!

This needs to go into the Kaiser WIKI !!!

These registry changes are needed inorder to be able to initiate phone calls from your bluetooth device using Microsoft Voice Command. These registry changes worked GREAT and the initiation of calls from bluetooth work much better than with the Hermes and it's tweaks.

Of note, using Resco Registry editor, I had to put quotes aroung the Path entry to get it to work so my registry edit looked like this:

Path Value= "\Program Files\Voice Command\voicecmd.exe"

If anyone knows how to get attention to have this put in the Wiki please feel free.
