Please do it!

Please add support for Nethaunter Kali Linux. Glitch kernel does it but I love your kernel. This is my humble request. :crying:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
It requires SuperSU

Not sure what that is, but I'll look into it
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Bumping :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
working on it now
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
:) OK, was just wondering. Still torn myself about whether to get one of the new nexii or not. It'll be interesting to see if they're as much a pain for you as the N6 was. :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
I think they'll be pretty nice. I already know how to deal with S810

Well, that was pretty fast. When I get home I'll load it up and see how she runs. :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] DaveImagery:
Thanks for the update! Me love you long time.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] :
Sorry if i'm already annoying you, but is it compatible with marshmallow ^^
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
I have no idea. I will install Android 6.0 tonight and check it out. So far kernel source has not been released, I'm sure it will be posted soon.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] DaveImagery:
Was curious myself. Just flashed 6.0 onto mine, and did a factory reset, but can't seem to root it (at least with Wugs toolkit) just get's stuck at boot animation. Prob some root files not compatible with Marshmallow.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] bigknowz:
Root

You need a custom kernel, I think it needs to be permissive instead of enforcing selinux to work, that's how the M Preview kernels worked on the N5 and N6.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] DaveImagery:
If it's not obvious, I'm a noob. :silly:

So flar's ElementalX kernel doesn't yet support that feature? Thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ShadowEO:
The kernel supports the SELinux permissive flag, but I don't think it's enabled by default, I think by default it's set to Enforcing.

Slightly OT: There appear to be other security checks that the init process does now during boot either in addition to or because of SELinux being set to enforcing. The system wouldn't boot for me through MultiROM unless it was the primary ROM, the last_kmsg had a security message from init, I didn't catch it though, but I know that kmsg didn't say it rebooted due to an error or panic, it was a requested reboot. (Odd)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
You'll need a custom kernel to root, selinux has to be disabled at the kernel level. I've just started working on the M kernel now, I should be able to release something before I have to go to bed.

I can't flash because the recovery does not work, any fix or something?

The recovery don't mount any partition, it's an known error?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] luckydooley:
Thanks! Does this set selinux as permissive for all apps or just root? In other words do I still need to flash permissive zip to flash viper4android?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] idCyber:
I have used Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit , and it booted into TWRP recovery, flashed manually what NRT said (I opted before all this for SuperSU Beta 2.49 in NRT settings) and on top of that, ElementalX 5.00 , rebooted and now I am enjoying my fav Kernel and Root ! Thanks [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] , in less than 24hrs you released the masterpiece for MM ! Good Job As Always !

Working flawlessly here as well, thanks so much!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] djkinetic:
Root working, editing files in /system works however system free space is showing 0 space free so you can't add anything to system.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] gleggie:
I had the same issue, i couldn't use adaway
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] k3lcior:
Is there workaround for this? Adblock is first thing i'm doing after rooting, if that doesn't work..:eek:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ABQNM:
It's not actually at zero free space, but with SuperSU installed, I only have 872kb free. Yes, kilobytes. So the marshmallow is REALLY fluffy and pretty much filled the entire /system partition.

You have to free up some space in /system now. The easiest way is to delete a couple of Google's preloaded apps that you can also get in the Play Store, like Books and Drive, for example. Go to /system/apps/ and copy the folders of an app or two to your internal storage as a backup and then delete from /system/apps/. Books alone is 7.94mb which should be more than enough for the ~2mb hosts file written for AdAway. (Not sure how much space Adblock needs, as it's not been a recommended app for some time, since they started including some ads. The problem is still the same for Adblock though.) I just got rid of Books and Drive and AdAway had plenty of room to install fully.

Google is getting to the point where they don't really want you to use root and mess around with the system anymore, so they do all they can to limit it. Selinux, write protected system, secure boot, and now they've been filling up the system partition with the Google Apps that they used to put in /data.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Sn00ky:
Rooted, flashed EX, installed latest AdAway 3.0.2 everything works perfect.

Thanks for the great work, [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] appreciate it
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] DaveImagery:
I had the same prob with adaway. I just went in to preferences, and changed target hosts file to /data/data/host. It then prompted me to create a symlink, then all was fine. At least I hope that's a viable workaround.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] klaust58:
Is anybody using Android_6 with MultiROM?

I just update my internal Lollipop with parts of the new factory image. Works fine, but - of course, the stock kernel won't boot secondary ROMs. I flashed SuperSU and ElementalX and can boot my secondary roms. But when booting the internal Android6 it jumps to TWRP :-/
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] andyman_187:
Is it OK to flash your stock rootable kernel over EX 5.0?

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] djkinetic:
Yea you're right about having to make space on system, its the same on the Nexus 6 system...Google cramming in the bloat.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
Okay, I just checked the system rw thing on my Nexus 6, and all you need is an insecure boot.img. It's probably the same deal on the Nexus 7.

I'll push an update tonight

Note that it will be OPTIONAL, as I prefer to ship the kernel in as secure a state as possible.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] magarto:
I am waiting for the same, but using Android M fr the second rom.

But no flashable zip is still uploaded by anyone. I tried to do it by myself without success.

I'm going to hold off on an official update tonight.

Chainfire's root solution will change again soon, as it's a work in progress.

Let's wait and see if there are improvements in the next day or two.

Also, I can mount system rw. No other modifications are necessary.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] andyman_187:
Is it ok to flash this stock kernel straight over EX 5.0.0?

Or do i need to reflash ROM 1st before flashing the stock kernel?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] bigknowz:
SU 2.5

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION], with su2.5, I saw instructions on another thread to take the modified boot.img ouf of chainfire's zip, flash that, flash su and then flash custom kernel. Do you agree?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
Yes, you can do that if you want. And you will have Chainfire's tweaks.

sorry :silly:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ABQNM:
Has anyone else running eX5.0 on stock 6.0 noticed that the battery stats don't seem to work properly? After flashing the kernel and SuperSU 2.49 (since flashed 2.50 with the same result), I get only two entries in the battery stats-- "Screen" & "Miscellaneous," which seems to include all app usage. When using the stock kernel, battery stats were reporting by app properly. And this behavior has persisted beyond a charge as well.

Other than that, it's been fantastic. Lost less than 3% over 13 hours of idle time with wifi on, so good kernel + doze seems promising for being able to leave the tablet lying around for a week and still finding it usable. I bet if I turned wifi to sleep with the tablet it'd last a month.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
Update

For Android 6.0 Marshmallow

I removed the permissive hack, this kernel is back to selinux enforcing

You NEED SuperSU-2.50 for this one!

I'm not pushing it to EX Kernel Manager quite yet, because many people may be unaware they need to update SuperSU

Download:

ElementalX-N7-5.01 BETA

Changes:

-selinux enforcing

-sepolicy mod from Chainfire
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Co.Tibi:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] can you bump the version number for the nexus 7 kernel to the same one as for nexus 5 since both kernels evolve pretty much the same... this is a stupid request, purely cosmetic...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Punkid:
hey im not sure if its a kernel issue or not, but is anyone experiencing lag? Chrome freezes often for me, for like 5-7 seconds, since i flashed marshmallow (Clean)

I was using 5.0 with SuperSU 2.46, now im using 5.01 with the new beta 2.50 SuperSU, still the same problem
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] ynksbsbll2:
I've been experiencing the chrome freezing issue as well after a clean flash. No clue if it's kernel related though as I went right to using elemental.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Sn00ky:
Same freezing here using Chrome Beta and EX
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
I'll look into it tonight.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] klaust58:
Same here.

Don't know if it is kernel related, but Titanium Backup 2.7.3 crashes when restoring apps. EX5.01 SuperSU 2.50.

Yesterday with 5.00/2.49 it works.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
5.00 is permissive, 5.01 is enforcing

Root with selinux enforcing is still a work in progress, and it is likely that many root apps will need to be updated.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] just lou:
It seems everyone is having lag/freezing with Chrome and 6.0. I don't think it's the kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] andyman_187:
No scrolling lags for me on stock kernel with Chrome. Happens to me on this kernel back in lollipop too. Glitch kernel did not have scrolling lags for me back then as well.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] just lou:
A lot of people are reporting the Chrome issue in the General forum and on other sites. I doubt everyone is using EX. Chrome worked fine for me with Lollipop and EX Kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] TunedFish:
I flashed from ex5.00 to stock backup (using ex app) and titanium backup still works--I verified that selinux was enforcing. Also, the chrome lagging stopped.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] DaveImagery:
At least from my personal experience, the Chrome lag/freeze issue has been around since early lollipop. I attributed it to AdAway or something. I use FF anyway.

I can report 5.01 and SuperSU Beta working well so far. Thank you for the continued development flar.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] JoseRebelo:
I hear that franciscofranco solved some Chrome issues in his Nexus 5 kernel, if that helps. Something about a problem in the gpu drivers.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
This problem affected some users of EX and franco on the Nexus 5. It was never solved, it just seemed to go away with a Chrome update. I could never reproduce it on the Nexus 5, but I just experienced it a few minutes ago on this device.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
Update

I'm finding the Chrome thing very difficult to reproduce, I think it is related to certain ads that were showing, and now aren't.

But anyway, I reverted a bunch of stuff that probably wasn't necessary and you guys can see if it helps.

-revert unnecessary changes
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] just lou:
I think you got it. Browsed in Chrome for about 10 minutes without an issue.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] TunedFish:
Elemental x 5.02 seems to have solved the chrome lag. TiBackup is working as well.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] magarto:
TiBackup is not working for me :(

I will try with EX 5.00 and Supersu 2.49
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Z23:
I can confirm chrome lags are gone. Can't check TiBackup because restoring backups end with error code 255 and a broken rom, to risky. (twrp2.8.7.0)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] andyman_187:
Chrome freeze gone with 5.02 as well for me, awesome :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Cosolord:
Cifs module works with this new version? Thank you.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] TunedFish:
If you are having problems with ex 5.02 and tibackup or greenifiy, use selinux changer http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2524485 to set kernel to permissive.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] magarto:
Yes, I did it, but a lot of apps cannot be restored so I have to kill TiBackup usually and deselect the app that is hanging it from being restored... it's a pain.

Hey [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION], could we please have the Chrome lag fixes in a Lollipop version? I'm gonna show some restraint for once, and let the dust settle on Marshmallow. I would be much obliged!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] GBP85:
There was never a kernel related problem with Chrome in Lollipop. It all had to do with Chrome itself. There hasn't been a mention about lag for several months.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] SHABBYLEA:
Would have to disagree there... I have flashed ex 5.00 through to 5.02...

I had really crippling lag after flashing 5.00...now no lag on 5.02...

Make of that what you will...

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
Netflix (and possibly other video stuff) is impossible to use since the Marshmallow update. Just letting everyone know this is not an elementalx issue, it happens on stock too, so the bug is either Netflix's or Google's. Nothing is showing up in the kernel log, so we may have to wait for Netflix or Google to fix it.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
Yes, I see this bug reported on Reddit and other places. You can still stream Netflix with a Chromecast, just cant watch on the Nexus 7 screen itself.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Glock3am:
I second that. The lag was clearly kernel related. I only ever used stock before and never saw it. After flashing EX kernel 5.00 it would happen every minute or so whilst browsing. After flashing 5.02 it was completely gone. There were no full wipes at any stage. Only dalvik/cache.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] tomxass:
Hello.

I flashed stock Android 6.0 ROM via nexus root toolkit, after that I flashed SuperSU 2.52, Elemental X 5.02 kernel, busybox.

After that, I flashed sound MOD 95 (to increase volume) - ( http://xdaforums.com/nexus-7-2013/themes-apps/mod-volumes-booster-t2841771 )

Everything works until I lock the device.

When I unlock device, sound is not working (untill I reboot device).

I flashed back to stock sound, but sound works only untill I lock device.

Can you help me?

Sorry, for my English.

Thank you.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] flar2:
I have no idea what the mod does. I would suggest reflashing system and boot, and if that doesn't work, full wipe.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] magarto:
One question. Does Android OTA updates work with this kernel and root access? Thanks!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development] Z23:
Since Android 5.0 OTAs don't work if anything on rom /kernel / system partition has been changed. No chance, you will have to wait until someone releases a new stock rooted rom based on latest google build. The good thing is, in most cases dirty flashing works without problems and you don't have to set up the device all over again.

Is there likely to be any support for encrypted /data partitions coming in ElementalX kernels?

I'm assuming it's not there at the moment, because if I encrypt /data, it then gets stuck while booting and I have to wipe.

It would be nice to have encryption back for those that want it.

My nexus 7 (2013) seems to be charging much more slowly since upgrading to marshmallow, Elementalx kernel 5.02 and Supersu 2.52. It has taken an hour for the tablet to go from 28% to 45%. On lollipop it would fully charge from that level in about 2 hours or less. Battery doesn't seem to drain any quicker than before so I don't think it's anything that is constantly running in the background. Is anyone else having this problem and is there a way for me to speed up charging? Also, the charger I'm using is one that came with my nexus 5 and its plugged into an outlet. Thanks.

Edited to add: I updated to 5.03 and choose all stock settings with no extras added and my nexus 7 seems to be charging at its regular speed now.

I'm running 5.03 stock without root. I believe how to obtain root is what is being said in Flar2's post.
