You are quite helpful sir! I really appreciate it and yes, hopefully I can hit the 6 hour mark and put this SOT crap to bed :)

Downloading now............:good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] sfld:
I was noticing audio was lower with this kernel, is it turned down by default?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
It is not. What kernel are you comparing it to?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] erk1725:
I installed this bad boy and I like it so far, but Im not sure if Im running default settings or not....the msim wakelock was sent to 6? What should this default to? 0? Hopefully everything else is default......tap to wake is working whereas the kernel I came from I did not have this enabled, so Im kinda confused

Thank you for your work!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
Make sure you don't have any left over init d scripts from a previous kernel. The tap to wake is set in the elite init d script.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] erk1725:
This is what I have in there.....
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
At this point I would dirty flash the ROM to clean up anything left over in the ROM and ramdisk then flash the kernel again. This way its a clean slate to flash our kernel on.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] erk1725:
That's his I installed the first time and I just did that twice. Same 3 files as above picture and msim wakelock defaults to 6 every time. I'll clean flash again soon enough I'm sure.

Running pure nexus ROM

Things are running great regardless:thumbup:

I successfully built PureNexus. Is there a build flag(s) that I need set to get odexed out?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
Any where in this commit:

https://github.com/PureNexus/android_build/commit/f5b27d84aff314b601f30cd353bc626fd72121d7

Change

WITH_DEXPREOPT := false

To

WITH_DEXPREOPT := true

And in the device board config put this:

WITH_DEXPREOPT := true
[Nexus 6 Android Development] enzoevo:
So for N6 would that path be:

You can see what all the defaults should be in our init d script. You can view it here: https://github.com/Elite-Kernels/el...M-cfszen/packageslp/system/etc/init.d/92Elite

Latest preview MPA44I decrypted boot.img:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/1wid2tj3zbwf1g4/decrypted_mp3-2_boot.img?dl=0

This is stock boot image from the latest preview image and is decrypted with init.d support.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] NotATreoFan:
Has anyone on the latest Elite kernel tried V4A on M preview 3? It installs OK and I don't get a warning about it being unsupported, but processing never turns on.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
The processing(lack there of) is not related to kernel. It is a rom thing.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] NotATreoFan:
I suspected that since I don't get the Abnormal status indicating the kernel isn't set up right.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] brymaster5000:
Here is a re-post of the decrypted boot image for the new M preview:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/1wid2tj3zbwf1g4/decrypted_mp3-2_boot.img?dl=0

I messed up the adb setting the first time.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rebel1699:
Does this also enable r/w in system?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
This is what I did to flash M and I have system r/w right from the get go.

In bootloader:

Fastboot flash bootloader

Fastboot reboot-bootloader

Fastboot flash radio

Fastboot flash decrypted_boot.img

Fastboot flash system

Use volume buttons to select recovery mode

Flash superSU

Flash this kernel build: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347797811

Reboot and profit.

If you have flashed the bootloader and radio, you can skip to the system and boot img. If you are flashing a rom, you need to flash that first, then go into bootloader and flash the decrypted boot img, then back into recovery and flash su and kernel
[Nexus 6 Android Development] teinwhite:
Does this mean I need to re-flash if I used your earlier version?

Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rebel1699:
Thanks. I had already used fastboot for the whole system and decrypted. Flashed 8-17 kernel and supersu, so it was all good. Will flash the 8-18 kernel you linked now, just to be more up to date.

One thing I have noticed in preview 3 is the /sdcard mount is now called "self" under storage. Tibu no longer sees the backups in its folder. Also, when browsing to /storage and entering the otg usb folder in es file explorer, the files are no longer shown. You can still browse them through the internal explorer, but it is extremely limited in function. Im betting a ton of apps are about to have to make some updates.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] NotATreoFan:
I had no issue restoring with Titanium on Preview 3. ES File Explorer still shows /sdcard/ for me.

I flashed the bootloader, non-encrypting stock kernel, then all other IMGs including userdata. Once I was up and running, I flashed Elite kernel and SuperSU.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
The second one fixes the use of ADB. If you don't use adb, then you don't need to worry about it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
It won't even let me download the file it keeps bugging in and out

I was just able to download via that link. Sorry not sure why it's not working for you.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Is there a flashable of this zip? Or only for fastboot?

---------- Post added at 01:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 PM ----------

No need to flash the decrypted boot.img. I just flashed the latest 8/18 kernel over jdx and it works fine so far. Still restoring.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] teinwhite:
Thanks for the upgraded adb kernel!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fahadali2315:
thats bcoz jdx is a rom that does not include full stock boot.img :) for fastboot method of android m preview 3 u need that decrypted boot.img
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Kariharri:
Great kernel, installed it yesterday! It's running really smooth (which is the most important thing, IMO).

Would it possible for you guys to make a lollipop version of the kernel with enforcing SELinux?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
Probably won't do an enforcing kernel for LP because it will break many add ons and will in turn create hoops for users of the add ons to jump through. Like V4A and xposed. M is right around the corner and at this point, in order to have root on M, you have to have permissive and enforcing isn't an option.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Mervingio:
Yes same damn problem here too [emoji35]
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
What ROM is this issue on? I might have an idea of how to get this fixed for you.

Although, I believe tibu just needs to be updated for M because this is how it will be in M. You can define the path to the backups in tibu also.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Mervingio:
Rigth now on SinLess 8 (Android M) yes already change the directory but not help I got all my backup on my USB OTG
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
Hmm. I have very little experience with otg. Maybe someone else can chime in on this.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] brymaster5000:
OP updated with new kernels. Synced up with Google's source. They added some wifi commits and battery saving commits. Enjoy!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] teinwhite:
Wooo! Will download and give it a go. Much appreciated!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
Last few builds have simply been the bee's knees, man. Elite is definitely getting a lot of recommendations from me as of late, and I generally do not like to give kernel recommendations... but it just works on everything so well. Awesome work man, thanks for sharing it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Nikos_s3:
newbie question : each time I flash the new kernel's zip in recovery, should I flash superSU.zip as well? Thanks and keep up the great work! :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] paroulis:
No, only the kernel`s zip.

Tried the unencrypted boot and both the 17th and 21st kernels for M P3 and still can not get r/w in system folders, is this a know issue or am I just not doing things right?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] hitchmontana:
do i have to flash the decrypted boot.img to get this kernel working on android m??

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 6 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
How are you testing to see if you have r/w?

---------- Post added at 07:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:36 AM ----------

No you don't. That was provided for whomever prefers to have the stock kernel. Our Elite Kernel zip makes the same ramdisk edits as I made to the boot image.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rekids:
[MENTION=2967322]buckmarble[/MENTION] , can't alter contents of any system folders. Adblock, Gsam root companion, won't install either.

Was able to add a lot of my own ringtones under system/media at first right after first flashing, but now can't change anything in those folders.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
Try using a root explorer to unmount and remount as r/w and see if that helps
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rekids:
Same results , using Root Explorer (paid version). Could have anything to do with using Kernel Auditor? Only thing I can think of that was installed after I was able to add some media files to system. Also using SU 2.49 and the downloaded busybox for M, can't get busybox pro to install, thinks it does when I hit smart install but reopening app says its not

Edit: OK so this AM I am able to read and write in system and have write privileges back, I think I know what has happened now since this has not really been a problem before, [MENTION=2967322]buckmarble[/MENTION] I think what I did was be in to much of a hurry yesterday and didn't let it settle in after flashing and instead went in right after boot and start to mod things. At the moment Google play services has some unknown error on startup and Google play games won't update got a 504 error when it goes to update.

So it is my bad, not anyone else's. Flashed all the right parts but was in to much of a hurry this time and started to mess with stuff before the system could finish setting up, such a noob I am thanks.

Will be quiet now
[Nexus 6 Android Development] enzoevo:
So I had a weird occurrence with the latest LP build. Two mornings in a row the phone was unresponsive. I had to do a hard reboot. I checked for a kernel log, but there was none in either case. I also noticed the phone would get pretty sluggish after a bit of use.

I reverted back to previous version of the kernel (dirty flash) and everything seems fine again. I'm on the latest PureNexus ROM. I'm just posting in case others might have noticed some wonkiness. I will probably redownload and give it another flash in a few days just to make sure it's not ROM related.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
I don't think its kernel related if there isn't any log. This is the first occurrence so the first thing I would do is do a clean install of the ROM you're on with the kernel before first boot.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wietse1988:
Just wanted to say this kernel is rock solid! Use this kernel for over 3 weeks now in combination with pure nexus rom. And haven't got any force close or reboot. I guess there are quite some people on this kernel, only the thread is very quiet because it runs like a champ! Thnx dev's for the great kernel!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] erk1725:
Elite running good so far on JDX-M 3.0.3.......I was thinking of changing the gov. to conservative? I watch cpuspy a lot and it just seems like my deep sleep is higher with conservative than interactive? I know stock values for everything is the way to go, but do you think there is a difference in overall battery life either way? Interactive or conservative?

Thank you for you time and effort!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] buckmarble:
Actually overall battery is better on interactive than conservative. This is the out come from a lot of testing. A lot of people requested conservative and we went with the hells modified version of it for quite a while then we changed a few things with hotplug handling and the governors and got a much smoother experience out of the interactive governor with excellent benchmarks and excellent battery life.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
I could not find a single category conservative outperformed interactive in anymore on latest build - only difference seems to be interactive being slightly more battery friendly and responsive in scaling... so yeah as always with this kernel, defaults are the way to go.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] erk1725:
Thanks guys! I was wondering and figured I would ask! It is definetly smooth with interactive.....I will just give things a few days to settle in with changing to M and everything and see what happens with the battery life

Thanks again and hopefully I will be back to post some screens of my battery life:):good:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mashuto:
I tend to agree, interactive really does seem the smoothest... except for in one damn game (zen pinball), it just stutters a lot. Blu_Active doesnt seem to, but its not as smooth everywhere else.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
Blu_active outperformed interactive in multiple instances I found - however, the drawbacks far outweighed the gains. It is definitely a more performance-oriented governor, however, this obviously reduces its battery efficiency. Also, again, scaling of interactive just seems the most reliable and predictable.. I'm surprised this is the only game you've noticed performance improvements with Blu_active on to be honest.. I see them a few places but it's not near worth the battery hit as this kernel performs so well still just sipping battery on stock/interactive setup.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mashuto:
I honestly don't do too much 3d or performance intensive gaming on my phone, and interactive seems to give good enough framerates, its just that it stutters and hiccups at times where others seem to be better about it. And as far as the reason why I notice it in that one game specifically... probably because its just a single moving ball against a non moving background, its a lot lot easier to pick up on stuttering when there is only one thing moving that i am focusing on. I actually seem to get stuttering with most governors I have tried with that game. Blu_Active seems to minimize it the most, but never seems quite as smooth with other animations elsewhere, plus as you mention, the battery drawbacks.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] maigre:
I just installed this kernel today after reading so many favorable things about it in this thread and the Pure Nexus thread. After installing the kernel, I began to see the 4 pixel high, horizontal white line that's at the top of the attached .jpg that runs from the left edge about 70% of the way across the top. I'd never seen this before on this phone with any ROM or kernel. I had only flashed Pure Nexus a couple of hours before I flashed the kernel. But I don't think it was there after flashing the ROM. I can't imagine missing this. If I look at the phone straight on, I don't see the line. But if my eyes are positioned even 1/3 of the way down from the top of the screen and I look up a bit, the line is visible. In other words, I see it almost constantly.

Has anyone else seen this on their device?

Also, a question that's not really Elite Kernel specific, but given the audio discussion here, someone might have an answer. My N6 has really low call volume. I know others have mentioned this on XDA. But I haven't seen a fix. I've tried Viper, different kernel sound settings (using Kernel Adiutor), etc. But none of these really seem to have settings for the earpiece on the phone, rather they're for the speakers, bluetooth, headsets. I tried the apparently no longer supported FauxSound app, which does seem to have settings for the earpiece, but it had absolutely no effect at all.

Something about governors that aren't set with the ramdisk being all effin wonky...

If you look at eng.stk's setting on blu_spark... You'll see a drastic difference in settings... And therefore less performance... More battery
[Nexus 6 Android Development] erk1725:
I use the aosp browser....I didn't notice it didn't show in battery stats. I use some gmail and xda. I was working so I didn't get much SOT. I don't even remember what I finished with but I'm now on my second charge and this is just amazing now! I unplugged my phone at 100% around 111 Friday morning and I'm at 50% now. Not much SOT again but I swear it went from unplugged at 11ish Friday until like 6pm Friday and it still said 100%!!

Right now using despair kernel with zzmive and zzrelax profile with built in hotplug. Looking nice so far.
