Updated today OmniROM with 4.4.3, installed ElementalX 0.43, standard settings, and phone seems very smooth with a very good battery drain..

Now the perfect it will be the express version of kernel, it is possible to change only kernel and modules files on a precedent express zip or there are other changes to do?

Great work, flar2, again a great work!

Have a nice day, folks,

I hope 0.43 won't break USB OTG. On previous versions of eX not all types of card readers worked. Now I'm on stock 4.4.3 with stock kernel and rooted and all types of usb card readers work for me. Can anyone confirm this? It's important to notice that there are a few different types of card readers (someone wrote about this way back in this thread, something about card readers with usb hub?). I'm going to give 0.43 a chance and report back.

Just wondering, is there a way to enable 4 cores always online via trickstermod? is there a way?

With trickster no. You can set it with Fauxclock or Kernel tweaker

I couldn't keep up with the development for nearly a month. I had exams & finally got through my engineering. Flashed 4.4.3 on my nexus yesterday. Can anybody brief out what has been added or changed since 0.38? 0.34 was the best to me.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gverma1:
AFAIK express version is a quick-install version of ElementalX with the same settings you had when you last installed Aroma version. So actually you don't need express version. Unless, you have tweaked your kernel so much that you don't remember what all you tweaked and would want the express version to install those tweaks. But IMHO this seems unlikely. I always prefer Aroma version myself as I can see what all has changed (example the change in readahead buffer).

Will recommend flashing version 0.43 which is there back a couple of more pages. That is the version for Android 4.4.3. Major change apart from compatibility with 4.4.3 is sweep2wake gestures where you can assign tasks to sweep gestures. You do need an Xposed module to enable though.

---------- Post added at 06:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 PM ----------

Its so easy to flash Elementalx and also stock Google kernel. Why don't you flash ElementalX and check for yourself. If it doesn't suit your purpose, you can easily fastboot flash boot boot.img from stock image to get back the stock Google kernel.

Testing 0.43 version with a 4.4.2 ROM

OK. I just went ahead a flash the 0.43 version of ElementalX kernel to my Carbon ROM nightly which is a 4.4.2 base ROM.

So far so good. Will see how it goes.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Most of the changes in the 4.4.3 kernel are bugfixes. I think they only made substantial changes to the camera. As long as the camera works on 4.4.2, I think it should be okay.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Maybe give 0.43 a shot. There are a couple of commits to the usb subsystem. Maybe they will do the trick. I can't test it because all my usb sticks and card reader work.

No idea. There shouldn't be any problems, as there aren't major differences in the past couple versions. Wipe cache and try dirty flashing your ROM, and if that fails, full wipe.

Boot problem

Hi, firstly thanks for you amazing work:good::good::good:

I've been using your kernel since I own nexus and I had no problem until the 0.43 release. Today I have updated to 4.4.3 and your new release and suddenly I have problems with starting my device. The google screen is keep showing up and the phone is not willing to boot until I press volume down. Then it boots just fine and everything works great so it is not a big problem but it is a little bit annoying:silly: It needs just short pressing of the button, not booting to bootloader to be clear...

Do you have any idea how get rid of this problem?

Thanks in advance!!!;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Joomlar:
i flashed 0.43 on 4.4.2 and its work fine, but now i see android 4.4.3 system update and after downloading i enter "install and restart" but after restart i he redirect me in TWRP and nothing happened?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Dark-Black-71:
That happens because the OTA update needs stock recovery to flash it. And your system partition needs to be stock without any modifications.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
I did a full wipe (data, cache and dalvik) and installed vomer's stock rooted ROM. It also installs the new radio. I would suggest doing that. Works great.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Joomlar:
so i need to flash only boot.img? do i need flash and system.img?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] makarena18:
No need, i have just reinstalled kernel without undervolting and everything works great so I think that was the problem.;) It is weird because the older releases worked with undervolting just fine...

But thanks for the tip;)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Dark-Black-71:
If you want to upgrade android from 4.4.2 with ElementalX kernel to 4.4.3 you have 2 options. You can dirty flash 4.4.2 and then upgrade it to 4.4.3 which is not preferable or you can download 4.4.3 factory image from Google and do a clean install.

I played around with the vibration settings for the DTW, STW stuff. You can definitely feel a difference in the vibration playing with those settings. For instance, if I set it to 90 on DTW, it's strong. If I set it to 5, you can barely feel it. But changing the setting for the normal vibration, nothing. The places it used to change, unlocking the phone, pressing the soft keys and the keyboard. But know they all have that 63 default setting I guess. Which is really light on my phone. Wish I could help more. If you need me to try anything out, let me know.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rhamej:

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] knaries2000:
The problem is likely due to addition of "VIB_STRENGTH" recently.

VIB=`grep "VIB" $ELEX_CONF | cut -d '=' -'f2'

VIB is screwed up because of the new veriable VIB_STRENGTH.

I set it manually with my own startup script and it works fine.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Did you install 0.39 as well? Because there are no changes in 0.40 that could possibly affect the vibration.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pappy97:
Actually, I meant using the kernel for CM/CAF based roms. That's not updated yet, right?
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rhamej:
No. I went from 38 to 40.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] knaries2000:
in case you missed my prev post about VIB_STRENGTH, I think 0.40 is when you added VIB_STRENGTH to config file, and that is what screwed up the VIB var due to the grep.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] gautampw:
I am having a weird issue on 0.43 which I'll describe in detail.

I was running stock 4.4.3 ROM and decided to try a new 4.4.3 custom ROM. I had twrp recovery and elementalx 0.43 kernel installed. I went to recovery & did a nandroid backup using USB otg on a FAT32 USB drive. Everything was fine. I tried ROM. Restored Nandroid. Now back on stock ROM, the USB drive which was being recognised before stopped working. Stick mount can't mount it. However I tried with other USB drive (FAT32) & it mounted it just fine.

First I thought it is an issue with USB drive. I formatted it but it didn't help. Then I did a factory image flash (even flashed userdata.img). When it booted,I rooted it, installed stick mount. Connected same USB drive again and it was detected fine. Then I flashed elementalx 0.43 again and it stopped working. I wasn't sure what's wrong so I connected the USB drive to Nexus 7 2013 Flo running latest Elementalx & it is working fine there.

What made me believe this is an issue with kernel are following two facts -

1) Even now if I restore Nandroid (which I had transferred back from pc) & flash stock kernel over it, stickmount CAN recognise it.

2) After flashing factory image, the problem recurs when I flash elementalx kernel. However other USB drive works fine.

I am a huge fan of how flar2 sorts out all bugs and hence I decided to write a long post explaining the issue. Let me know what all logs you'll require in this case and I'll try my best to provide them.

Thank You
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
That's what I thought at first, but they're saying you can't increase the vibration with TricksterMod, or I presume manually in sysfs.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] knaries2000:
I can set it manually in "sysfs", it works fine for me with 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rhamej:
I wouldn't go off of what I said previously. I had all kinds of mods going on. But the latest is stock with just exposed installed.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] knaries2000:
can you manually set it and verify for flar2 that it works like mine? just open up /sys/class/timed_output/vibrator/amp and set the value to 5 and see if your vib decreases.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rhamej:
Nope. I can't even set the value. After reboot it goes back to 63.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] knaries2000:
no, you don't need to reboot (it is not suppose to stick after reboot), should take effect after you set it. just set it and try it if you have vib on key press, you should feel a diff.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rhamej:
Ahh, did not know that. Yes. It definitely changes the vibration.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] flar2:
Can you guys see if there is a difference between 63 and 100? and if this is different than on version 0.38 and earlier.

I don't have the phone with me right now. In my testing the other night, I found only a slight difference in the feel of the buttons on 100 compared to 63. Can't remember if the difference was greater before or not.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] rhamej:
