Hey I'm new on this forum and I got Nexus 5 since 2014 but the perfomance it's not the same as then. I was wondering what is the best ROM based on perfomace-battery life for my Nexus 5? In order to extend the use a little bit and got some extra battery life of course without losing performance.
So I hope you could help me with awesome ROM. Currently I'm using RR 7.1.2 but my battery started to expire quickly and performance it's not good with the time goes by. For that reason I'm looking new ROMs. Thanks!
I found using LineageOS 15.0 ROM had better battery life than RR, you can give it a try.

I'm Thinking on 4 ROMs right now, LineageOS, Dark ROM, Resurrection Remix (last version December) and Paranoid Android. I was using RR version August 20th 2017 but my battery life didn't last long, so I wanted to try others ROMs based on recommendations of performance and battery life duration.

WARNING: DON'T COME TO ME COMPLAINING THAT YOU BRICKED YOUR DEVICE. YOU DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK AND ACKNOWLEDGE THE WARNINGS
Here's the best set up I've found, LineageOS 14.1 Nightly, Franco Kernel rk113 3.4.0, SuperSU v2.82, and No Frills CPU Controller. Franco Kernel increases battery life crazily on it's own, then add LineageOS and SuperSU and use No Frills to underclock it. It lasts forever. You could even add the LG G2 battery mod to this and have a god tier battery.
Note though, flash LineageOS > SuperSU > Franco Kernel. If you flash the kernel before LineageOS it may be over written and your kernel will be messed up. (I know this for a fact will happen with Magisk 15.2). Before doing any of this make sure you have a back up using TWRP and/or Titanium Backup in case you mess up.

Well I no longer have a Nexus 5 tbf, so i can't help ya there, just slowly turn it different items down until you get your preferred batery life/performance
Hello! OP, did you manage to get the setup Bigority recommended? If so, what's the performance you got out of the phone (preferably, an AnTuTu score)? And how's the battery?
P.S.: Asking these questions because I'm currently using an iPhone 5S and I'm thinking of replacing it with a Nexus 5.

Hi, I'm actually on stock 6.0.1 with Franco kernel on battery saving profile. The performance are ok except for the fact that the screen have to be always pretty dark.
I have really to try using the phone less as possible to reach the end of the day with one charge. Do you think that this rom and following configurations they can give to me a relevant better autonomy and performance? How is the stability?
Thanks

Boeffla Samsung Kernel by AndiP
Ported and compiled by Hbohd and P$T
For i9305
Introduction
Note: The 4.x kernels are only for Samsung based 4.1.x roms!!! Do not install it on CM or AOSP based roms!!!
The 5.x kernels are only for Samsung based 4.3 roms!!! Also do not install it on CM or AOSP based roms!!!
After ausdim's contribution to porting variety of kernels to our phone, I am here to continue his work (he won't maintain it any longer because he simply doesn't own this phone now). Updates will be made as soon as Andi will push them to github.
Here is original thread of i9300 boeffla kernel - CLICK
Here is thread with boeffla ported by ausdim - CLICK
Info
Kernel is compiled using Linaro 4.9.1 with some required changes for our i9305:
No FM radio
No CMA_DMA
No flash and load in Boeffla App
New 'Hbohd preset' and 'PST preset' which are just our everyday use settings.
New 'Hbohd' and 'PST' equalizer preset - just our favorite.
Apart from that, everything is same as in i9300 version.
Please for any questions problems or anything else ask here and not on I9300 thread.
Credits
P$T (for helping hand with compiling and endless patience and time)
Ausdim (basing on his work and he always gives helping hand)
Yank (his endless patience and knowledge to help with any issue)
AndiP (for kernel base and another kind help)
Disclaimer
*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in CWM recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.

Camera bug info:
It appears that some people (like me) have problem with camera. In exactly THIS situation: do full wipe, flash sammy rom+boeffla kernel, reboot and launch camera. Effect? Camera closes with "camera failed" popup.
Possible solution:
1. Read this thread and follow steps --> click
2. Flash Sammy Rom with stock Sammy kernel, run the camera, take a photo, then reboot to recovery and flash my ported kernel
3. Flash Sammy Rom with stock Sammy kernel, run the camera, take a photo, grab file (SlimISP_XX.bin, where XX differs between phones) from /data/cfw/ and backup it where you want. Then if you can always copy it to /data/cfw if your camera doesn't work with my ported kernel. (ATTENTION: Unfortunately this file does not always appear - still don't know why )
Possible explanation, my own research:
I found out that people with ZD and GD will have camera working always. Why? Because these (SlimISP_XX.bin, where XX differs between phones) files are packed within kernel (zImage exactly) and ONLY THESE two are provided by Samsung in their opensource release... Interesting, isn't it? For example, I have GH version, which I may add to zImage manually, however adding more of them breaks the size limit for boot partition, so it's impossible to have all these versions together. However, stock kernel somehow has them, don't know how because zImages aren't extractable.
And just to confirm my theory, I've compiled a kernel with mine version of camera firmware, made full wipe, installed sammy rom+my kernel, rebooted, launched camera and voila - it worked
Thus, we has to live with this bug unless Samsung do something about it or someone else proves me that I'm wrong

I compiled it after adding my own script for zzmoove 0.5 settings, so you all have them in boeffla app. Therefore I need to explain what i changed (it is just for testing purposes, I don't know yet if it is better/worse etc).

Do you have any link or something where we can read about zzmoove governor tunables? I was searching, and searching and nowhere have I found a good explanation of all parameters.
I should probably look into sources you just gave a link for, but I am too tired atm.
Edit:
Oh that wasn't link to sources, but it doesn't matter, there has to be one somewhere in Boeffla thread.
Sent from my GT-I9305 using Tapatalk 2
My 'sources' are only one file - defconfig. The rest is completely same as Andi's sources
And for any explanation of zzmoove configurables - there is some documentation, quite well explained: https://github.com/andip71/boeffla-...48257af1b13/drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_zzmoove.c

Thanks for the port.
Over night I find this one better on battery than the last port. See how it goes with a bit of heavy usage today.

Hi Hbohd. So, let me see if I get it: this port will no longer be updated, and you are now the good guy that will continue to update Boeffla kernel to our beloved I9305?

Yes, you are completely right Ausdim has even mentioned in his thread that he no longer owns our device (i9305) so I decided to ask for his permission to continue his job here !
I am quite in love with usage results of Boeffla kernel, therefore you do not have to worry about frequent updates
Hbohd it will continue the port of the boeffla kernel since i moved to the i9505.
Also i see Andip make some changes to the boeffla sound driver so it will work better.
Thank's
After 1 day with new kernel I can say the battery improve are the best an till now. Great job

Well, I'm sad that a developer leaves this phone, but it is awesome to know that Boeffla will continue to be ported to I9305! The best part is the frequent updates Thumbs up!

Beta7 is better than beta6
Thanks for your work.
Do you have any information about problems with distorted sound? It happens randomly here, and someone else reported the same here in this thread.
Have you used Perseus kernel? What do you think about 'Master sequence', that is calibrated colors? I am missing that feature (well, that colors.) a little, so I'm just asking if there is any chance we get it too, or you plan to stay strictly with pure Boeffla source?

Beta7 is with zmoove 0.5 which is unstable at the moment - beta6 with 0.3

Sincerely, I haven't experienced any random distortions of sound, everything works great. Obviously, if you raise headphone or speaker volume too high, it may be distorted, but it is understandable.
Or did you want to mention the problem with distorted/freezing/stuttering audio on screen-off? That was discussed and it might be caused due to too low screen-off frequency or too high sampling_rate and sampling_rate_sleep_multiplier. If it's the problem, try to change to zzmoove-optimised as it has this values changed a little bit.
About Perseus' screen calibration settings... As for now, introducing such thing would require adding multiple scripts to support variety of configurations for it (in boeffla app), change app to stweaks (which is quite tough task) or wait for new app which will come in some time, made by Andi (and in my opinion, will let us easily configure what we want).
What's more, personally I liked these calibrated colours, however, original colours also seem good to me So nowadays, I do not need it, although I might look at it in my free time and see what can I achieve

The fact is, that ausdim released beta4 or 5, I don't remember exactly, and then was my release beta7. And we somehow skipped beta6, you are right! However if I were you, I wouldn't take zzmoove 0.5 as 'unstable'. It introduces a great deal of new configurables that, I suppose will be really beneficiant in the future (when we all will learn what they mean ).
Version 0.5 is ONLY unstable when you are changing governors frequently. Otherwise, it is really efficient and bettery-friendly one (same as 0.3). In addition, it's my beloved governor since its start
Furthermore, new betas always consist of other updates (like Linux kernel upstream to 3.0.82, fixes, optimizations) so it is always worth to use the newest one!
As for now, you may stay with your actual beta version or wait for next update. Andi is testing comparison between zzmoove 0.3 and 0.5 right now, so he haven't pushed any sources, therefore I can't release any new update We are all impatiently waiting for the results i think!

Hello community,
I am a rookie in the subject of kernels/roms and I would love to have some precious help from any1 that knows even the smallest of information. I recently installed CM kernel and CM nightly 0422. The thing is, I read in many forums (in here as well) that there is a kernel that can boost battery life to its max, Franco Kernel. But I also read that it is somehow incompatible with CM 10+ and causes bootloop if you install it with CM already in phone. What I can't understand is why can't I just simply replace CM kernel (like stock kernel was replaced by CM kernel) by Franco Kernel? What is the fact that I am missing?
ALL (and I mean ALL) help will be highly appreaciated, thanks for your time

first off.. there is no magic pill to give your phone for battery life. battery life mostly depends on your personal usage, your personal setup, your apps used, and most importantly the quality of your phone/data connection. everything else is minor for battery life, including kernels.
cm uses CAF as its base now, they went away from aosp(like most kernels here). so everything that is aosp based is not compatible with cm anymore. franco kernel is aosp based(most kernels are). there are a few kernels that are CAF based built just for cm and cm based roms.

Thanks for your time and your answer
First of all, I know for myself that there is no magic pill about battery life, I just read in too many threads that FK added a good portion of battery life (with same use of phone like when it had CM) ! Moreover it allows you to overclock (my) Nexus5 beyond 2.2GHz, something that CM doesn't allow you too (I know that overclocking kills battery, I just want to test something). What I don't understand is how can FK mess up with CM when both are different kernels and by installing FK over CM means that FK replaces CM. There is no CM in the end, only FK. Or not...? What have I understood wrong?
Thanks again

yes, franco would replace cm kernel if all worked right. but what you are doing is replacing cm kernel with franco kernel, but cm rom stays on your phone. franco kernel is incompatible with cm rom. since franco is aosp and cm is caf, your phone would never boot up all the way.

So, if I am getting your point right, since one is aosp and the other is caf THAT is the reason why CM doesn't uninstall and will exist together with franco? Is there a way to permanently delete CM in order to install franco? Maybe to go back to stock kernel then install FK?

its not about the kernel, its about the rom. they are different things. when you flash a kernel(any), it replaces the kernel thats on your phone(kernels come with roms, cm kernel with cm rom). cm rom includes cm kernel, both are built from caf source. franco kernel is aosp, it is not compatible with cm rom. it has nothing to do with cm kernel, it replaces cm kernel when flashed. but you will never boot up your phone because it isnt compatible with cm rom.

ok, finally I got it, thanks to you Last question... is there a way to get FK now or am I just locked to caf due to CM "for life"? which way (if there is any at all) in your opinion is the best way to go from CM to FK? maybe go back to stock rom/kernel then flash FK? Will this work?

no, they arent compatible at all. you can not use franco kernel with any cm based roms. you can change roms and use franco kernel with it, any aosp rom or even the stock rom. but cm isnt compatible at all with franko kernel.

If your looking for a good CAF kernel to run with a PAC or CM based ROM. I'd recommend the ElementalX CAF kernel. It's very stable, rich features, great performance and great battery life. Make sure to read the OP for directions and if you decide to try it out download the ElementalX R38 version with the aromma installer (not the express version) As with running any new kernel run it for a few days minimum to allow for it by on settle in.
There is another option for you to explore too - http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/cm11-users-heres-how-aospnon-caf-t2626961
This allows you to run a script that will basically De-CAF your rom and allow you to run a AOSP kernel on CM11ROMs.. Be sure to read the OP. It works with many CM11 and CM based ROMs, but not on all the newest versions. Definitely worth checking out.

I'm new to Nexus 5 as well.
I have been using Chroma for few months now/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/rom-chroma-03-31-2015-layers-t3069105
The version I installed on mine is: 8-10-2015 built.
I have been following the post lately,
many people said, 'franco.Kernel' is a good Kernel.
how do I check if I already have franco kernel installed?
I went to About page, it says: 3.4.0-gbebb36b [email protected]#1
also,
if I want to go with franco kernel, what advantages will i get?
do i just need to download this app thru google play to install the franco kernel?

Hello guys,
I'm new to Nexus 5 as well.
I have been using Chroma for few months now/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/rom-chroma-03-31-2015-layers-t3069105
The version I installed on mine is: 8-10-2015 built.
I have been following the post lately,
many people said, 'franco.Kernel' is a good Kernel.
how do I check if I already have franco kernel installed?
I went to About page, it says: 3.4.0-gbebb36b [email protected]#1
also,

That is stock kernel. Recommend using blu_spark (aka code_blue) over franco.kernel. I won't say FK is abandoned, and it is a good kernel, but it's just not updated for the N5 much anymore. Same thing happened to the N7 2013. When the devs move on, you should also.
What do you get with a custom kernel? They say battery, performance, etc. Most of it is negligible at best. You'll need to read the kernel OPs.
hello,
thank you for your reply.
which kernal are you using for your nexus 5 right now?

I use elementalx. It is pretty much stock, but you can mod things. The dev's app is great, too.

Chroma used Franco as the built-in kernel in the past but zephik keeps Google's kernel for a few months.

Better battery life? Negligible.
New features like color control, governors (highest impact on battery life), S2W, DT2W, USB fast charge... It varies for each kernel.

I suggest you to read (again & again) the kernel threads on XDA before flashing anything. Franco is a well known kernel but we have other awesome kernels.
so my nexus 5 is stuck on the bootloop or the chroma logo...
I flashed:
1) chroma_hammerhead-ota-2015-10-05.zip
2) tk_gapps-modular-nano-5.1.1-20150927-signed.zip
then the nexus 5 was able to boot fine, and I saw the phone already has SuperSU came with the Chroma ROM
3) I went ahead download the BusyBox, and installed
4) reboot to recovery , and flashed blu_spark_r30-6.0_hammerhead_40fbe53.zip
my phone is not stuck on the ChromaLogo .....
I have also tried,, on the step 3, I flashed without installing Busybox.. It's a no go either..
any help would be appreciated..
Thanks

Here is your mistake: blu_spark_r30-6.0_hammerhead_40fbe53.zip
This kernel version is for Marshmallow.
Praise God! The AKLU kernel has arrived on the Galaxy Note Edge in the flavor of NOUGAT!
NOTE: I highly recommend turning off THERMAL CORE CONTROL! Use THERMAL TEMPERATURE THROTTLE instead. Thermal core control has been known to cause random reboots on this kernel before when gaming or during heavy use. You can use Kernel Adiutor to adjust these settings.
TBLTE AKLU KERNEL for AOKP 7.1.2!
MAY work for other LineageOS based roms, e.g., RR, PAC,AOKP, LineageOS, etc.

20170427
- Updated kernel to include kexec hardboot for MultiRom support.
20170316
-Update for OMS support.
20170217
- Fix WiFi hot spot error for Nougat.
- Overclocked the GPU from 600MHz to 633MHz
- Overclocked the CPU from 2649MHz to 2688MHz
- Added governors: Bioshock, Lionheart, Nightmare, Darkness
- Removed input boost, use cpu boost instead
- Added I/O schedulers: FIOPS, ZEN
I haven't loaded up AOKP yet but this kernel is working beautifully with RR and the data fix. You rock man.

JeremySS,
Thank you for the kind words!
In theory it should work with any nougat rom based on LineageOS, but I have not proved that personally. Thanks for confirming that for RR and providing the feedback!

Thanks for the thought, but I do not accept donations. I just tinker for fun, and have my own rewards. Besides, guys like @Mickey387 did all the heavy lifting, I just try to put the device trees and vendor blobs to good use, with a few edits here and there. Glad to know that my work is appreciated, though.
The slim 7 aklu kernel appears to be slightly unstable at this time. Please use with caution.
EDIT: Updated the kernel and fixed a few bugs that I missed in the first build. SHOULD be better now. Please turn off thermal core control for best performance!
Also, if you flashed superSU in Slim to root it, you need to flash the kernel, then immidiately flash superSU, then reboot.

Now used ramkernel v5_n915d and note 7 port.
but I want to Aokp 7.1.1
Here's how to do kernel ram121

I make zImage with gcc eabi 4.8. End only *****_DCM_Defconfig
Log -hastebin.com/gudipabona.coffeescript
but it is not boot my note edge . Maybe because I packed it in your boot.img?
Or because compiled with only one config?
Praise God! A new kernel update!
The AKLU kernel for the AOKP has been updated to include kexec hardboot for rmultirom support! See the OP for details!
I have noticed that many of these processors on the note4/edge are of a good bin.. Mine can run about 45mv off from stock.. Have you ever considered adding CPU Voltage control to help a bit with battery longivity? I do thank you for your excellent work, your rom's and kernels truly show that it is the programmer not the hardware that matters.... Godspeed....

Thanks afbcamero, those are kind words.
On my MM kernels I did implement UV, but the way I did it in MM fails to pass in the N kernel. Not because it doesn't work, but rather that new build standards don't allow it. With the recent birth of my son, I have not had time yet to go back to it and figure out what was wrong yet. Are you familiar with kernel work? You could look at my github and my kernel source, perhaps you could show me where I went wrong?
If I can get passed that, I can implement the UV again. I also have the same problem for GPU voltage control, which I used to put on my MM kernels as well.
Perhaps when life slows down a bit, I can look back into it.

Oh I see, i honestly never looked at the structure of Nougat kernels. Any time I want to implement a change somebody does it better and beats me to the punch.. I will look at it just in case I see something..
On another note, these things however fun (development) not being trully important, may your family be blessed by the big guy.
Thanks! I'm always open to ideas on kernel improvement.

sim card not detected
Im on RR (7.1.2 micky387 build) but when i flashed the kernel, sim card isnt detected...anybody got the same issue? Any fix for that?

You could try the data fix zips in the 915t T-Mobile thread.

So I purchased a Oneplus 7 Pro about 5 months ago since then I have been facing aggressive app killing. I know some have this issue, some don't. I have literally tried everything, which includes:
Factory Reset
Installing beta versions
Disabled all the battery related things throughout the settings
Dont Kill My Apps
Still no results. I am so comfortable with the OS except for this one and only issue.
So I am planning to switch to a custom rom, most probably an AOSP with OOS Camera (as I would like to keep all cameras in use) also need a daily driver, don't want to face issues such as random reboot and camera problems. Any recommendations would be very helpful.
xXx NoLimits with memcg SmurfKernel
I decided to finally go custom last month and I must say all custom ROMs I tried are better than stock interms of Ram management, features, and battery (except Evolution X but it has the most features). I find Paranoid being the most stable rom for this device and that's including oos with Bliss being second. Realistically you can't lose no matter which way you go.
I've had zero random reboots and stock camera works on all custom ROMs I've tried
hmm,, for me OOS is still the best one,, if you want your apps not to be killed while on BG,, try installing custom kernel.. RZ kernel for one,, then also disable ram boost..
especially the latest RZ kernel is superb..

Try glassrom
PS: I am the developer
I also suggest trying a kernel first, after all you can try it without wiping everything.
(Rom -> twrp -> reboot -> magisk -> kernel -> done)
I like arter97 kernel, make sure to turnoff "memory booster" or how oos called it. Using F2fs / magisk is optional.
This kernel comes with a slightly different memory management and might fix your problem? It's rebased on caf instead of a modified oos kernel.
try arter kernel54..its so good
havoc rom is one of the best so far.
