Either my eyes are playing tricks on me or something was not right somewhere..

i restarted the phone through TWRP manager to flash some file, but the device just went into recovery and rebooted without flashing anything.

And now it seems like the cooler colors are back?!

can see a definite change in colors
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] anthonyp326:
Ya mine worked after restarting to ART
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Ensifolk:
The cooler colors still work perfectly ! But this is the first time I read that Im using them at my own risk ? Isnt using 2.2 gamma profiles at one's risk aswell ? Etc ? Any explanation ?

Do you guys run the MotoX boost every time flashing a new kernel?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] drawde40599:
No , u only need reinstall after ROM flash , not kernel
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Brusington:
Quick question. Not trying to get into the whole covo of who pooped the bed, but how were you able to flash a different kernel despite the mounting issue? I am on droidKang which is cm based on the 0.18 kernel
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] thereal_bigjake:
Flash image gui

Rebooted and everything seemed fine in the rom
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Syk69:
I think its when you flash custom kernel not cm based that it craps out data partition. I know trinity messes up root or something on cm based roms.

I tried elemental on slim and no issues, on cataclysm no issues, on purity no issues. Flashed elemental on droidkang then reboot into recovery and data partition won't mount, flashed elemental on liquid smooth which has cm kernel then reboot into recovery and once again data partition wont mount. I would avoid flashing elemental on any cm based ROM.

Edit: and yes i used the current ram disk option in the installer.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Lancez:
For cm based ROM, did you choose "use current ramdisk" in aroma installer?

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Syk69:
Yes of course :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Lancez:
Weird, I've tried both cm official and euroskank cm11 with elementalX, no problems at all.

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Syk69:
Recently? Maybe its some new commit from cm. They are constantly changing and adding things that break compatibility with other kernels. The cm ROMs i tried were the most recent builds. Like day old at most i believe.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Lancez:
Yes, couple of days ago with .18 kernel.

Very weird indeed. I'm not really a fan of cm so I'll just stay away lol.

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] As always great work, your kernel is one of the smoothest and give out the best performances. I tried your 0.18 and i didn't had trouble with dt2w, just sometimes i needed to perform 2 times a double tap to wake the phone, but that wasn't so bad at all.

Now tring your 0.19.1.

Thx for your work

What is the general working expectation of the 4 cores?

During a 45 min game play session of anomaly 2, cpus 1 and 2 are around 1.8ghz, at times touching 2.3

cores 3 and 4 never came online.

The phone had gotten quite hot by the end..

Is this normal?

@up

FAQ #5 but I was asking about ElementalX app not other. Nvm
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Sviborg2241:
Yeah, so my experiments with f2fs+elementalx ended up in a total fiasco. The performace increase is second to none, but in return I got all sorts of stability issues. Yesterday I tried switching ROMs and decided to roll back to my current one. I was really surprized to find both of my nandroid backups broken (even the one I used to restore before) and all my attempts to re-flash the rom+f2fs dummy and kernel ended up in Google logo bootloop. I even tried flashing stock via fastboot without erasing userdata and cache and after that re-flashing custom stuff - still no luck. The only thing that brought my phone back to life was a full stock flashing, re-formatting to ext4 and re-donwloading ROM and kernel archives (which were definately working before). And now I'm struggling to bring up my Titanium backups back since apparently 30% of my apps won't restore at all and after several attempts to bring them back I ended up with half-broken ROM (quicksettings and lockscreen are gone lol).

While I'm re-flashing my junk again please remember - if you decide to do some stuff like f2fs make sure to have all sorts of backups. This way the only thing you'll loose in case of bad luck is your time :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mousefai0922:
im currently using franco but like to see battery improvement for elementalx

1st, does installing the elemetnalx kernel wipe data on my phone?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] ciano865:
dirty flash of your ROM and then flash ElementalX
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Traxex_:
No it doesn't wipe anything if you don't choose to do so.

I don't recall Chrome freezing on stock.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Puzzlegirl:
I don't recall Chrome freezing on ElementalX - it seems to be a problem that happens for some and not others. If you search the thread, you will probably find a lot of reference to it.

is there a way i can load this kernel without using twrp?

i load franco kernel just by an app in playstore?

any easier way ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] walpurgisnacht30:
I dont know why is it so hard to flash something from TWRP
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Traxex_:
You could use "flashify" or wait till flar2 will sell his kernel app again.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jaibar:
But both of them use twrp anyway, and you end up using the same amount of actions (pressing buttons, selecting file etc).

I don't think one can avoid using recovery to flash the kernel.

Oh, you can use twrp material theme- then it has even better feel and experience than flashify or other apps... ?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mousefai0922:
does installing twrp require a wiping my datA?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] walpurgisnacht30:
Assuming your bootloader is already unlocked, no it won't wipe anything
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
You still need to install TWRP recovery, because the installation process requires it.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mousefai0922:
needed help:

thinking to flash elementalx kernel to nexus 5 using flashify

however, i came up to a point asking me using cwm or twrp?

im using stock recovery tho.

please help
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] t3al:
You need TWRP to install the kernel
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] walpurgisnacht30:
TWRP, all day
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mousefai0922:
ok now, i installed twrp and ready to flash

however, it said that i should NOT upgrade to elementalx if im using not stock or not previous elementalx kernel. it will cause error if i do the upgrade

is that truth

what should i do now?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
If you have installed a different custom kernel (like franco kernel), you should do is reflash your ROM without wiping data. If you are using the stock ROM and have installed a different custom kernel, then you should flash the stock kernel (you can easily do this with Flashify)

Then install ElementalX kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mousefai0922:
so basically u are saying i should reflash back to google kernel and then flash it to elementalx?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TheLastSidekick:
Close, but the stock kernel that comes with the ROM, which normally may be stock. I believe it's because elementalx using current ramdisk, and FK modifies the ramdisk accordingly hence why you can't safely flash elementalx over FK.

Could be wrong though, my memory is horrid.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Only if you flashed another custom kernel for example, franco or hells, etc. And only if you are using the stock rom.If you are using a custom ROM, flash the kernel that came with the ROM.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] AndroidBR:
Guys I wanted to ask you if any of you have been noticing any erratic kernel behavior after flashing CM 12.1 and ElementalX 2.11 + App.

Coming from CM 12 I had no problems regarding CPU heating up and CPU not idling. Now it's like the processor never idles or shuts down and the CPU heats up so much that the charger disconnects and the battery starts to drain, that's happening even when I select 1200MHz as maximum clock and Extra Cool.

I've cleared the app settings and flashed ElementalX from within Recovery (recovery walkthrough) but nothing seems to resolve this issue.

I'd appreciate if you could give me a hand about this.

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mousefai0922:
I do have a software at home which can reload the Google kernel without installing the ROM again.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gverma1:
Easiest way to install Google Kernel is to place boot.img from Nexus 5 Factory Image in your SD Card and flash it in TWRP (select 'boot' in image flash option).
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] and313:
Reflash the rom first because of possible ramdisk changes
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] mousefai0922:
Where do I get the boot.IMG?

Will the ROM be effected?

---------- Post added at 08:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 AM ----------

Ramdisk?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sherlock5545:
There should be thread with the boot.img etc. here on XDA.

Or you can download the factory image from Google, extract boot.IMG from there and flash it via fastboot.

The ROM won't be affected.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gverma1:
ROM will not be affected. Ramdisk changes are in the Kernel IMO so no need to flash ROM.

You will need to download factory image from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images (Nexus 5). Open it in 7zip or your preferred compression application and extract boot.img. Transfer it to root of your phone's SD Card.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] twqwctf:
Hi, on Android stock 5.1 - Nexus5. Trying to improve battery. For 1st time ever, unlocked bootloader (which wipes phone -- ok), rooted, and installed ElementalX kernel.

Ran the non-express. I left all things default except for

- chose slightly cooler on thermal throttling

- disabled all the double-tap-to-wake features I do not want

reboot, phone seems fine except..

Google Play is now trying to restore all my apps (that I backed up via Google). But the Play store downloads are hanging. Well, sometimes I noticed an app download and install. But they're far and few between. Now I have probably 12 apps left to download/install from Play store. Visiting Play Store for that app (Example: search Pandora which is still not reinstalled) -- Play store shows 'Installing...'. When I click Pandora to see more detail in Play Store, there is a progress bar just redrawing itself over and over with no apparent progress. Other apps not yet installed - same behavior.

If I attempt to search/install a brand new app from Play Store, it just does same thing "Installing..." with progress bar not doing anything. My Wifi connection seems fine. Chrome is perfectly fine connecting to websites..

Is there any known issue with Play Store/ElementalX? I searched the thread and didn't locate. Thanks.

[EDIT]

I did these steps and this has caused Google Play to start downloading normally. I will keep an eye on it.

1. Settings -> Apps -> Reset app preferences

2. Stop / Clear cache and data from app settings of Google Play.

3. Reopened Google Play

I want to ask a question.

During phone calls I notice that my ear touches the screen and it clicks various things. (My ears are NOT that big)

Is this kernel or ROM related? I had this problem since ever.

Can I fix this somehow?

I saw once [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] posted one a changelog that this issue was fixed
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] maortrol:
I think it's not kernel related... Did you check if your proximity sensor is working properly?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] jbowwow02:
That was because of some issue with double tap to wake IIRC. But there should be no issue since the screen goes off during phone calls when it detects the phone is on your face. I'm doubt this is kernel related.

and so on according errors, but not sure exactly wich lines packages exactly to remove, and otherwise if im better to switch other governors too, in order to use yours....

u mind to tell what you think about it?

Thanks by advance

The proximity works fine because the screen turns on when I put it in front of me, and turns off when I put it next to my ear. I couldn't replicate the issue now but most times I hear the clicks that my ear does. When I end the call I usually end up in the Calendar. Yesterday I ended up in the CPU times of the ElementalX app

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
That chrome thing is quite the puzzle. I've never had a freeze using it either.

I feel like it may be due to some combination of settings that only some people use.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] janres155:
Updating chrome to latest version seems to fixed the issue. I say this is chrome not kernel related.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] walpurgisnacht30:
It's reproducible on my end. Been using 3 different custom roms and also stock rom with default EX settings not a single tweak applied, it was only happened when I open a webpage with flash player or ad loaded. When I try to read an article and enable read only mode on Chrome the issue is gone.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Traxex_:
I've got the Chroma lag issue quite some time too with ElementalX kernel. No issues with stock kernel.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
As flar said, I think it's either a setting issue or a chrome issue as well. I have my N5 knocked down a notch to 1.9 GHz max CPU on Chroma and no issues at all. Actually no issues on any ROM 5.0.2 or 5.1 on ElX with Chrome. When I've had problems with an app in the past and I know it's the app I have just kept it installed for a bit (about a month or so) and waited for an update fix. In the meantime I'm looking for another good app that does roughly the equivalent until I find one I like. Then, if there's no update in a reasonable amount of time, then I just dump the old and go over to the new. That's the only advice I can think to give from my experiences. :)

This doesn't happen under stock kernel.

IMO, probably the best route to take. Flar holds himself to a pretty high standard and more than likely it would have been just fine :) but yeap, best to just wait for the next release which I wouldn't imagine would be TOO long ;)

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] luisaosan:
I'm trying to downgrade from lollipop(5.0.2 resurrection remix ROM) to kit kat 4.4.4(I tried some ROMs and none of them works). It boots normally with their respective stock kernels but when I flash elementalx(1.13) it gives me boot loop, no matter what kit kat ROM am I using, I was thinking of wiping the internal storage but i don't want to lose my data, i think this can be some conflicting file left around?

Awesome kernel btw, using it since I got my n5
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] DroidIt!:
Well, that's a big downgrade and not TOO sure, but if it were me I'd probably flash the 4.4.4 bootloader and radio, then of course you need 4.4.4 ROM and gapps. You'll need to also flash the stock 4.4.4 boot.IMG as well as flar's kernels work with whatever boot.IMG is already installed on your system. So, in your case I'm thinking if you flash the 4.4.4 stock boot image and then flar's kernel then you should be OK. If that doesn't work and you really want to go back to 4.4.4 I'd flash the factory image. :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] sherlock5545:
Just flash 4.4.4 factory image, then flash custom ROM, then flash Elemental X. Should work and you'd also be downgraded to older bootloader.
