[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Verme1:
I have received the same message today. I ignored it, but why all the sudden google? If a program is messing with kernel settings on the fly.. then yes, it may take costly or dangerous actions.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Yes, I have the N6 as well, but google definitely has it's weaknesses. Well, regardless, flar decided to take the b!t¢h slap and roll with it, thank god, and keep moving forward. So, basically....whatever :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] JonesL:
Ah right, well in any case I'm getting these freeze ups every 5mins or so. After further testing this message is the one that always pops up during a freeze

Chromium E [Error:Latency_info.cc(160)]

Vector size 110 is too big.

I've noticed the vector size keeps changing in the logcat too, others were 105 and 126.

Edit this stupid forum software keeps sticking "eek" in my coded post, proper log here http://pastebin.com/bXrfy7iu

ElementalX works fine with cm12.1 , too.

No problem. You need to flash 2.11 version
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] twqwctf:
I want to report on my observations on ElementalX kernel.

Nexus5- Stock android 5.1 - I am not a heavy user (don't even play games). Was getting roughly 14 hours of use before the battery died.

Finally broke down, unlocked bootloader (which wiped phone - cool) - rooted and installed ElementalX 2.11.

-chose slightly cooler on thermal throttling

-selected default CPU speed and default voltage

-disabled all the sweep/double-tap-to-wake features

-other- all defaults

My observations were no-change in battery experience.

So tried again

------------

-chose slightly cooler on thermal throttling

-selected 1958Mhz CPU speed (one less than default) / Undervolt 750min (one less than default)

-disabled all the sweep/double-tap-to-wake features

-choose slightly cooler colors (no sure if this really affects battery ??)

-other- all defaults

Observations:

I am seeing OVER a 2X improvement in battery life!

I am just blown away. Wow this is like way more than I expected. :):) Kudos to the op. I will buy that ElementalX app when it hits the play store again.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaibar:
Google apparently not only removed flar's app from their play store, they are also actively warning users to remove the app from the device immediately??

I don't use any anti-something/anti-anything applications, so I guess that I got this warning message shown on my screen by forgetting to untick the "Scan for security threats" in google service's security tab?

I apologize if it was discussed before, it's first time that I get such a warning. Of course I ignored the advice... [emoji16]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sherlock5545:
Yes, I had the message too. It's the automatic scan option that alerted you. It's not a bad feature, of course in this case we know very well that the app isn't malicious.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] RubinCarter:
All because of the SELinux toggle feature. Same thing is happening with the LMT Launcher.

Google is reinforcing Android security, which is understandable. Shame that competent developers like flar2 and noname81 became the sacrificial lambs though.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lulli1:
just one little question (search didn't give me any usable result): can I simply undo the permissive setting by going through the Aroma-installer again without setting the kernel permissive, or do i have to do more than that to get a non permissive kernel?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] walpurgisnacht30:
You can simply edit the permissive setting via elementalx.conf file located in /system/etc then reboot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lulli1:
yes. thanks. that could have come to my own idea. I didn't think about that. sorry....
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Huh. Never knew about that...not that I'm going to revert permissive, but still good stuff. [emoji4]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] walpurgisnacht30:
Yeah, it's handy isn't it? Heheh
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] vkarof:
What's the steps i must follow?

First flash elementalX 2.11 or first update to cm12.1?

It's the same doing OTA update and flash the image of cm12.1? :confused:

Has anyone discovered why Chrome freezes on elementalx and Franco? When I run Code Blue, there are no issues.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Traxex_:
Unfortunately I still don't know what's causing the freezes and switched to Code Blue for now.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gverma1:
Chrome freeze, unfortunately, is real in my fav EX kernel. But I still use it and have switched to Dolphin browser instead of Chrome.

Hope flar2 can find a solution to Chrome freeze in the next release.

Having said the above, Chrome freeze happens randomly. I tried to take a logcat, and at that time Chrome didn't freeze :-/

Edit: I am using Stock ROM 5.1 LMY47I, TWRP 2.8.6.1, EX 2.11 with defaults, SuperSU 2.46, Stericsson Busybox.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaibar:
For me it also freezes. Switching to recents and back seems to unfreeze on the spot.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] oo0:
chrome freezes for anyone on 12.1, just search for logcat - mentioned a lot of times, kernel needs an update.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sk3201:
With opera Browser the same. While freeze pull down notification panel and freeze stops.

Hi Guys,

Can you please tell me if the version of EX posted (2.11) will work with CM12.1 ? I need to know if I can flash this kernel.

Thanks!!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] frontzosd:
yes , it works
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Calvin2394:
Update!?

It's been a really LONG time since EX was updated.

Looks like [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] is cooking up something big and great for us :)

Still rocking 2.11 on my N5.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Still no Chrome freezes at all for me. That's a bizarre one. My wife has the N5 and she's a REALLY good bug reporter :) so I'd hear about it if there was something wrong with it. I really don't do anything special. I actually knock down the top end CPU to 1.9 GHz and pretty much leave everything else alone and never had a chrome stutter or freeze in over a year on ElX....just don't get it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sk3201:
OK. Than i l m going to run catalysm without ex and test the behaviour.

Thing is: thought it is opera related and and switched to chrome. Same. Did not realized it with other apps till now.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Axel85:
Freeze form me too ,and I can confirm that if you push the Navbar or the status bar chrome start to work again. I m on cm12.1 and all stock kernel settings. My CPU PVS is 2

Yesterday I be got a worst problem then chrome, my cache has been corrupted after a phone freeze and automatic reboot,and after the apps optimization It restart and restart optimization,I had to wipe cache dalvik and system and reflash cm+gapps, so for now I stay with stock cm kernel, waiting for the new realese of this awesome kernel
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
I just dont know why chrome freezes

For me it never freezes, so I can't even fix it by trial and error.

I was going to compare my commits to ssee if there is something Franco and I added but code blue didn't, but the code blue source was removed from github.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] californicated:
If the code blue source was removed, you might want to compare with bricked, which doesn't make chrome freeze either.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] fleischbanane:
Im on the latest CM12.1 nightly and ElementalX-N5-2.11 and never had a chrome freeze.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] techinv:
Opera freezing for me also, 3-5 times per day. Usually for 2 seconds or so, but sometimes longer. Will try the pull down next time it happens.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaibar:
I think that at this stage, we already know this is something that happens to some of us, where others don't.

It happens to users with both stock-based and cm-based roms, even with "stock" Ex settings.

So sure, it is difficult to nail the culprit. I don't think someone had managed to grab a logcat with this freezing, and the spectrum of different configurations/settings that creates this freeze is so wide that it looks random, which obviously isn't as some don't experience these freezings. I think it is even hard to tell if it's specific websites- or ads, or who knows that causes this strange freeze.

For me, it freezes almost on every use of chrome. I'm on stock android LP and all Ex settings are just the nominal recommended during the Aroma installer (no undervolt, no change of thermal control, no under/over clocking etc.). No xposed framework installed and so on.

Sure, it is not the end of the world, I just got used to it but if course I'd be happy to get rid of it...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sk3201:
To those who do not have any freezes: do you use any kernel setting other than ex default?

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Yeah as I said earlier, no freezes for me too, ever on the N5, N6, or N7 on your kernel. Just don't get em. [emoji782]

---------- Post added at 10:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 AM ----------

On two of my devices, N5 and N6 I have CPU maxed at 1.9 GHz. The N7 flo I leave at stock 1.5 GHz. No GPU OC on any, ElX thermal throttling on all 3, fiops w/512 read ahead and that's literally about it for performance settings. I don't use touchboost or any of the wake gesture options. That's really all I can think of. :)

[Q] Ex app worked without any issues on stock 5.1 ROM.

I made Titanium backup, then clean (full wiped everything) installed Cataclysm ROM stable version, followed by my favorite kernel.

Tried to restore EX app, got Google's warming, ignored and installed anyway.

But now the app fails license check and sends me to Google play store to purchase the app again, but if course they forgot they just removed it a few days ago... ?

So now I'm in a viscious google cycle.

I'm using Adaway from XDA thread version 0409, and Android firewall (where of course I didn't block EX). No xposed framework or any other app that I think can interfere.

Any ideas? Could be traces of previous EX installation? Is there a way to clean remove anything EX-related and reinstall it from a clean state?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] aavvaallooss:
Did you restore the app with or without data?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaibar:
Tried both, same result. What's strange, for curiosity I added my gmail account on my wife's Samsung note, which has mostly the same apps installed (and of course an irrelevant kernel), imported the TiB backup and there it passes the root and license test. So obviously the problem is only with my device.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] theesotericone:
TB has an option to break market links in settings. Break the link with Play store and you may be good to go.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaibar:
[EDIT] [SOLVED] Managed to get rid of this nagging license check fail. Somewhere I realized the problem was only in my specific device, I used SD Maid app from play store to search for ”corpses" (old data and directories from apps uninstalled or not existing anymore). I removed most of them. I think the last one that did the trick was hidden folder .xprivacy (which haven't been using since android 5.x) and voila- EX passed the license verification and started working! Not sure why or how, but if it works, it works... [\EDIT]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Globespy:
confused about the Google warning to remove SE Linux

I simply installed a rooted stock ROM (Cataclysm) then ElementalX which I think had an option for permissive mode which I believe that I needed for Viper4Android to work.

Is my phone now at great intrusion risk?

I really love V4A but not if or risks the security of my personal information.

I've read a few posts, but a little over my head.

Appreciate any replies.

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Selinux provides fine grained access control. The basic effect is that each thing you install is in its own sandbox. If you remove it, then apps or mods you install could potentially read or modify system files or files that don't belong to them.

With the amount of personal (and sometimes financial) information on your phone, I've advised against disabling selinux from the start (and against my better judgement added it to my app and got burned for it). Same goes for encryption of the data partition, don't disable it. You should also lock your bootloader, because if it's not locked, anyone who gains physical access to your phone can do whatever they want.

If you disable selinux (ie: set it to permissive), you should be careful about what apps you install and what web activities you engage in. I don't think there are many viruses and malicious things on android, but you never know.

Some mods don't work without setting selinux to permissive (which is essentially disabling it), so lot of people have been doing that. But it's basically taking the easy way out. All of those mods could be made to work with enforcing mode, but I find that selinux is still poorly understood, even by many devs. What they should do is have a look at Chainfire's How to Su article, which describes how to modify selinux policy to make things work without disabling it completely.

It appears that AdFree was causing Chrome freeze. Disabled ad blocking and no freezing since. I'm using CM12.1 & EX 2.11

speaking of locking the bootloader, is there any chance you could add that to your app? currently, I use trickstermod, but having one less app would be great

Not on this kernel atm but experienced my first chrome freezes today... painful adaway is installed and since yesterday Im on 5.1 Cataclysm... on 5.0.2 slimpop i never had this (was on elementalX all that time) I switched to franco this night because fauxaudio was causing audio errors again...
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] :
The Chrome freeze maybe related to the Android System Webview which was brought as Play Store app by Google. Its pre-installed on stock but not on Custom ROMS. On Chroma it wasn't installed and I used to get many Chrome freezes but after i Installed it from Play Store, the freezes have been far less. IDK if its even true. Lol
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ollidiemaus:
For me with webview installed it only freezes if I don't show the tabs separate in recent apps.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Just to be clear, is this problem with Chrome, or Chrome Beta, or both?

And someone else mentioned something about LMT or pie controls or something. Is this related?

And is this related to the tabs in recents/tabs in browser setting?

The logcat that

This has been bothering me for a long time, but I can't reproduce the bug. I need to be able to reproduce the problem if there is any hope of fixing it. So I need as much detail as possible.

This is at least something, but this is output from the Chrome app and I don't really know what it means for the kernel, if anything.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Haidary.T:
I have NEVER gotten these freezes on Chrome Beta. However, it only took a little while before I experienced them on the regular Chrome. However, this was when I was using Franco kernel (they have the same problem) and I'm going to school now so I can't test. It would be nice if someone using EX could use Chrome beta for a little while just to be sure.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Notechis:
I guess it is not kernel related at all. Maybe web view or other google stuff caused that. Got some phone freezes the last couple of weeks, different Roms and kernel while receiving a message (WA) mostly. Get a replacement the next days, but through the last app updates the problem seems to be solved. However I am using adblocker and chrome and have no issues with chrome freezes.

Can t stay without your kernel... I m addicted

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] magnamentis:
chrome and chrome beta in use here, beta works definitely smoother.

i'm wondering why nobody guided the discussion to kernel settings, i mean for me it's clearly a chrome problem but only occurs when certain settings, governor, scheduler and readahead combos come into play. not even talking about any other power saving tweaks. i'm usually running on a personal performance mode with high boost values, high read ahead (2048 or higher ) etc. this because my device is 90% of all times on charger and on the motorbike even off while the opo is connected to the outlet and serves as multimedia device. in short, perhaps we should try to tweak the kernel a bit until chrome issues get resolve, already much better in version 42.xxxx and chrome beta thoght

sounds good, i share your view of this, albeit i do not have a hardware problem, i'm seconding the reminder of your post.
