Its flounder.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] omvir:
Let's call it... Flountis!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] faux123:
The title says it all. Check my github link for exact changes
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Cuzz1369:
I'm supposed to ask my kernel Dev to include this. Thanks...
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] giant22000:
Its on now! Faux's here's! Glad to see you here!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] faux123:
What if I say instead of avoiding the problem, I will add performance improvement to encryption subsystem so we can have encryption and performance at the same time ;)
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
What no!!!!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
because he did not enable OCing
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] faux123:
Here's a sneak peek of what's to come :D

Enjoy!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
don't see how that's an improvement

Thats worse than stock??? Or and I missing something?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] nrage23:
Look at the write speed. It has a huge improvement
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Hereisphilly:
I also think the stock speeds are the lowest entry, in which case its a big big improvement all round!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
Hmm??
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] expertzero1:
Because you have encryption disabled while this has encryption enabled ?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
removed
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] joshndroid:
relax pal... you have had multiple posts in this thread criticizing. Kernel is first release. Sounds like you have compiled and utilized your own kernel offering, if you have fixed something (in r10 of yours??) how about submit a patch for perusal on his git repo or suggest an idea on here that he and others can read and help us all. No dig at you just simple etiquette stuff.:good:
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
I know sorry guys

I just got shocked and worried

because they said it was an improvement

Sorry guys my criticizing
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Jeremiah_1988:
Is this flashable in twrp?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
No

Not yet
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Jeremiah_1988:
Roger, thanks
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] giant22000:
You can use Flashify to load the kernel if you don't want to use a computer. Just drop the img file in the right flashify sub folder and restore as boot img and reboot. Wala, you've got Faux Kernel.

Sent from my AOSP on HammerHead
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] prdog1:
Or add the boot script to updater script of flashable zip. :cool:
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] FrankBullitt:
Faux is a legend on the N4 forums, so having him around here is a huge boost to the N9 development.

Faux, looking forward for you sound and gamma implementation on this device :)
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] ÜBER™:
Finally got around to unlocking my bootloader and rooting and what not. Nice to see my favorite kernel was waiting for me, just flashed up and running just fine so far. Hope this turns up some much better battery results than stock. :)
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] mag13:
After flashing kernel this way my N9 is booting since 10 minutes. Can you exactly explain how to use flashify?

---------- Post added at 02:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 AM ----------

Okay got it booting successfull, but now I only get errors like Play Services stops, Gmail stops and so on. Does anyone has an Idee?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] giant22000:
Always, always, always make a nandroid before flashing anything so if you do have a boo boo you can restore like it never happened.

By chance did you make a nandroid?

If so I'd say restore and try again.

Sent from my AOSP on HammerHead
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] mikebeatrice:
Just flash a new kernel over the top. Restoring the whole nandroid for a kernel is kind of pointless since it shouldn't affect the other partitions.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] mag13:
I flashed an other kernel and everything is fine again.

But I wanted to try this one and flashing an other does not solve this.

By the way, I came from fire ice kernel...
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
Did you get those problems on FIRE-ICE ?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] mag13:
No, never. And thats why I am back on yours.

But I like to try new things ;)
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] matthian:
Installed yesterday, super smooth. No issues booting up. Running rooted stock.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] ÜBER™:
You guys swapping kernels, try flashing the stock kernel image first... Give it a boot then try faux?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
Also

Side note you will get encrypted
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] mag13:
Do you have a link for stock kernel?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] ÜBER™:
Nope, I'd imagine you'd have to grab it from google's lollipop images I haven't flashed one in a long time pretty sure they contain the boot.img right?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Skid71:
That's an affirmative
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] faux123:
001 Beta 2 is out! add missing intelliplug patches...

again, use fastboot for now.

fastboot flash boot fauxkernel001b2.img
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] StuMcBill:
Any chance of an md5 for beta 2?

Im on an unstable connection, just want to make sure it's downloaded properly.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] ryencoke:
Md5 from file I downloaded is below:

[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] mag13:
Is there a mirror to download the kernel? Download crashes at 60 % everytime I try.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] prdog1:
Try another browser. Not the server. I downloaded in 3 seconds. :cool:
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Thijssie909:
Very laggy on 5.0.1, don't understand why. Can't wait for an updated kernel with some nice encryption enhancements! Thanks!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] MoooN:
Hey faux are you going to continue development here?

Would really like to use your kernel and all your cool apps with this device
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
Im sure he will
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] faux123:
Kernel 002 is out! Check OP to get the link. use fastboot to flash.

FIOPS forward ported to 3.10 and FDE enhancements added.

Enjoy and goodnight!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Thijssie909:
Hi Faux, thanks a lot! Are your 'encryption' enhancements also present in this kernel?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] faux123:
Yes
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] mag13:
Is it possible to flash this Kernel with flashify?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Thijssie909:
Yes
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] mag13:
Thanks, I found out whats wrong. I came from Fire&Ice and that is why this Kertnel will not work.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Ishwara Sandesh C M:
Thanks.. :thumbup: :)

Can you please post features of the kernel?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] FateNozomi:
https://plus.google.com/+PaulReioux/posts/QbwW7YD1YEU Check the recomended settings to find out the features ;)
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Thijssie909:
Anybody able to select fiops as i/o scheduler?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Hereisphilly:
Yep, used fauxclock and all is good
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Thijssie909:
Strange, I don't have that option...
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Hereisphilly:
Silly question, you did flash the kernel didn't you?

Faux's previous release didn't have fiops, check the kernel version in settings -> about tablet has a build date of Dec 21st, that's the 002 release
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] FrankBullitt:
Holy * ! Since flashing the kernel this afternoon and applying faux's recommended values, this is my device with the same usage that was getting me 90% of low and critical memory states:

Before (taken a couple of days ago and at 8am, after being unused for hours...)

Now, with faux:

Just...wow! The whole thing feels so much smoother, no micro lags, no redraws so far, no apps crashing out of nowhere...
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Gormsen:
That's what I'm experiencing too. Faux, you really did an amazing job with this kernel. Thanks for the early Christmas present :D
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] FrankBullitt:
Good to see I'm not the only one. It is indeed an early xmas present. The tablet feels like it should have felt since day 1!

My guess is that the SPM is making miracles, but that's just a wild guess.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] beats4x:
[MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION], do you plan on supporting the LTE variant at some point? I read on g+ about your current work/home situation, so no rush, simply curious
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
It does support the lte nexus 9
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] beats4x:
Oh wow, nice! I must have read right over that somewhere. Do all current kernels work then? There are no differences from the WiFi model to the LTE on the kernel side?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
Yep

but not my kernel

because i removed lte support when there was no need to have it when there was no lte n9 out

At the time
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] beats4x:
Thanks [MENTION=5501864]USBhost[/MENTION], I appreciate the quick response.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] upNsmokeAllDay:
Does this have the fauxsound mod?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] zanoli99:
anyone having problems with download. It keeps stopping after about 1MB for me.

disregard. got a good download down and running great. thanks.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] darkmuffin:
What are these recommended values you mention? Couldn't find them in this thread. Also, what ROM are you running?

Just got my Nexus 9 today and was pretty disappointed with stock, so I'm trying to get some more performance out of what I know can be a beautiful machine.

Hi all, having a problem here, I can't flash the Kernel. It stays at the boot screen with the 4 colored dots. Tried a lot of things, changed cache to ext4 but no luck. I am using the nexus Root toolkit. Only stock kernel can be flashed. Any ideas what's going on here?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Hereisphilly:
Have you just unlocked your device's bootloader?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] hill67:
Yes, i did.. Also flashed the Ice kernel and that worked. I read that you have to change cache to ext4 so i did that in twrp recovery. Than i tried to flash this kernel. no succes. At the moment my n9 is going through a factory reset and its recovering all the apps.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Hereisphilly:
If you have just unlocked your device, you need to let it boot up fully with stock recovery and stock kernel for it to process the wipe command that's triggered when you unlock

For some reason twrp can't process the command that's why it gets stuck in the boot loop.

Once booted you can reflash twrp and any kernel you want
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] FrankBullitt:
Check post #65 of this thread. There is a link to Faux's G+ with a post containing the values (screenshots of his app with those values).

Edit: addicted1900 already posted it:)

And I'm using lollipopalooza.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] hill67:
Sorry, I misunderstood. But I unlocked the bootloader a long time ago. After that I flashed the Ice kernel and that worked well. I wanted to try something else and tried to flash this faux kernel and then it got in a boot loop.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Hereisphilly:
Have you tried flashing back to stock kernel 1st before flashing faux's?

Sometimes a modified ramdisk can cause a bootloop
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Logi_Ca1:
Thanks for the awesome kernel! Just wondering, are there plans to add voltage control? Hopefully some undervolting helps with the heat...
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] hill67:
Yes, i tried that. No luck. I will try again when my n9 is recovered from a factory reset.

Edit: after a factory reset I managed to flash the kernel :)
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] USBhost:
O OK that's why

ksm on is on
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] vboyz103:
Quick question, do I have to pay $5 for the FauxClock app? I wanted to try it out first before I commit but can't find anything on his G+ for a trial type of download.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] beats4x:
You have a two hour refund window. That should suffice.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] El Nino1977:
No you don't have to purchase the faux clock app its not obligatory, there are free apps that provide similar options. But buy the app enjoy the features and support the dev for spending his spare time. If still not satisfied you can always refund, Fauxclock works on the majority on kernels available in the forums.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Gormsen:
Flar2 posted that he tried messing around with voltages, but that the automatic dynamic voltage adjustment does a far better job, than we could do with manually setting the voltages.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] ayoraider07:
Are there any [different]recommended settings for using the fiops I/o scheduler? And what settings should be tweaked to decrease heat, & increase web browsing battery life?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Thijssie909:
You were right, somehow flashed the wrong kernel. [emoji19]

Thanks, all is working now very nicely!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] JCUK89:
I have to say the tablet is a lot smoother than on stock kernel! Can't wait to see what's coming.

[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] itlnstln:
Quick question; I'm looking for a "set-it-and-forget-it" kernel. I don't really feel like messing with governors, schedulers, voltages, etc. Can I just flash this kernel and still take advantage of its optimizations (encryption, etc.) without installing fauxclock and tweaking the settings?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] badwiring:
I did that first, and yes, it works just fine. But with the additional tweaks it's noticeably better. I know the value of benchmarks is limited but I've been using them anyway just for the fun of it between various changes. Antutu is over 58,000 with the kernel and modified settings. That's the best I've seen yet.

It's like the 21st century version of muscle cars with themes and wallpapers instead of paint jobs, but less expensive, more functional, and safer.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] JCUK89:
Hi I only got 51k in Antutu. Are we supposed to use the recommended settings posted on Google+ in November or have they been updated?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] SwoRNLeaDejZ:
Now see, when I was on a decrypted kernel, I could hit almost 59K on Antutu.. Switched to this kernel, and I'm at about 57K with all the recommended settings.. Thinking it is somewhat device dependent at this point.. My benchmarks actually dropped a bit with this kernel, but I will stick with it based on what's to come..
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] upNsmokeAllDay:
Is fauxsound active in this kernel and do you plan on adding the fast charge option?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] mag13:
What settings are you using?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] linelock:
From past experiance on other devices faux123 usually ships his kernels with stock settings. I cant speak for this one though.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] znarf2369:
NTFS auto mount support

Will this kernel support NTFS hard drives over USB OTG as Lollipop seems to not support OTG without having a third party app that mounts the hard drive? (will auto mounting be possible or maybe is it already supported?)
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Poesini:
Hey [MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION] , when I clone your repo, what do I have to do (make? run a script?) compile the kernel and do I need something else (like toolchain and/or ramdisk)?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Gormsen:
[MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION] I'm getting some pretty random freezes. They occur when I leave the trailer in idle for a long time. In the attached screenshot you can see that it's still draining battery, but its not doing anything.

Read somewhere that we're not able to get a last_kmsg on lollipop, please let me know which kind of log you want.

[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
FauxSound drivers haven't been implemented yet. You could check Faux's Github for stuff like that though, bro.

https://github.com/faux123/flounder/commits/lp_rel

I don't know if Faux uses a custom toolchain. However, to make the kernel - clone it. CD into the dir. Make faux_flounder_defconfig. Make -j8.

PS: Keep in mind that whatever toolchain you do use - it'll have to be 64-bit supported.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] BlueHawk:
Yes. For some reason FauxClock at some point ends up draining battery - I've generally had that happen sometime after battery drops below 40%, but could be just coincidence. Generally, I've come back to the tablet and it is dead, and have to charge a little bit and then boot, and then see which process drained it (FauxClock) - so the reboot could have reset everything again, so it could be related to uptime, rather than abttery level. Anyway, I've done a force stop on FauxClock and haven't had that crazy drain for several cycles now.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] NYCHitman1:
Lollipopalooza and probably SlimRom.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Megaflop666:
Lollipopalooza works great with it!
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] stadicon:
Thanks for the kernel. I noticed that my logcat is full of error messages about not having writing permissions in bootpulse. Could that could any battery issues, because I can say I am not really impressed with the battery performance. I am on Faux kernel with the recommended values.

EDIT: I am also wondering if it's possible to make gamma controls (or other color calibration settings) available on Nexus 9. I definitely don't like the way this display is calibrated and i would like to have the same options as on Nexus 4.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] cLeAv0:
Hi, can I request for binfmt_misc to be supported? :)

*edit*

I successfully added this by compiling from fauxkernel source! Just spent some hours on studying how to compile a kernel. Never thought it was easier than I thould it would have. It booted properly and Linux Deploy detected binfmt_misc. Anyways hope you still support it so i wouldn't have to compile your kernel manually each update :)
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Luk37astic:
For the recommended settings, why not set the min clock and screen off clock to the lowest possible value? Why is min clock 510000 and why is screen off clock higher than that at 1020000?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] znarf2369:
Is thr kernel development for Nexus 9 still allive? :confused:
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] DangerMUK:
Yeah wondering if this is still in active development ?

Also is there any chance to turn off forcing encryption ?
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] SwoRNLeaDejZ:
Min clock is the lowest available frequency for the CPU, screen off is the MAXIMUM frequency available when the device's screen is inactive. Two completely different things.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] znarf2369:
hey [MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION],

I know from G+ that you are pretty busy at the moment and thats absolutly fine.

I just wanted to ask: Is the development for the nexus 9 dead or will there maybe be some updates in the future (doenst matter how long it might take)? just a short update about whats going on would be so nice (:
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] Ace42:
The last update shows 2014, Faux abandoned the N9 or he's waiting for 5.1 (doubtful). He has been updating the Nexus 6 kernel, so he hasn't stopped developing completely.

Sent From Capsule Corp.
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] El Nino1977:
No 5.1 source for N9 or google IMGs released, I'm sure when google release 5.1 faux will update
[Nexus 9 Original Android Development] CPA Poke:
For anyone interested, I unpacked faux's boot.img and added all of the sepolicy stuff required for the kernel to be compatible with CM Theme Engine ROMS and some of the other CM features that require SELinux permissions. I also disabled forced encryption ;)

Here you go - flash at your own risk as always.
[P3600 General] Svenitos:
Hi,

Today I changed my mobile provider, got a new simcard with the same mobile number.

I putted it in my pda, unfortenately the trinity doesn't find any network, even if I do it manually.

If I put the simcard in another normal mobile phone, it works without any problems. Also when I hard reset the trinity, it works properly.

But of course I don't want to install all programs again so I restored my full backup, made by spb backup, again.

Still having the same problem.

Someone knows a solution for this?
[P3600 General] Svenitos:
It's weird..

I can receive/send SMS's, though I still have an icon with an exlamation mark (left of the sound icon) that says "No service".

I can't open my contacts, if I click on "Contacts" nothing happens.

I also can't call anyone since nothing happens when I click on the button to take up a call.

I'm using the last dopod gps rom version: 1.23.707.6

I think my register is messed up.. but I don't know how.
[P3600 General] n0b0dy:
what happen if you use an other simcard, e.g. from your friend?

may be it's an old type.

2 years ago i get a new mobile device (samsung d500) and my old simcard was not compatible with this device. my samsung always said "No Service". so, i called my provider, explained the problem and i got a new simcard. it was an other (newer) type of sim
