Absolutely -- and don't get me wrong --- One of the best AnTu scores I have gotten is with your kernel - approx 55k

I was just curious what specifically about your settings could have made my score drop from 54k to 46k ... esp since in my hands the same ROM feels snappy / lagfree

Your work has been appreciated for a long time now !!! (by ME!)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
You guys are awesome ... thanks for your time

Edit...... LMAO. I give up! . I think I'm promising to never use a benchmark test again. I just tried your settings and got 24k! All the while the ROM feels great
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
You realize running antutu with high oc and performance governors causes the phone to heat up which in turn causes it to throttle the cpu
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Over 50% of my phone time is spent 960mhz or below
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Just to make sure nobody that read my last post asking for ideas on this wastes time.

I got it figured out.

https://github.com/team-vortex/UKM/commit/746ca91b250ace84c416b657324e84c418ec03e2

Boom.

I know, it could probably be optimized still... but it shows the wake locks like it's supposed to.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
The new UKM is awesome. Yoinx pulled some stuff off.

Also, we reverted back to lollipop wifi drivers
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
Wayyyy of topic and probably inappropriate..... But which M ROM are you guys using?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] DreamFX:
OP allows some off topic. He is cool like that. Right now cataclysm IMO is the best, most feature complete. While still far from LP feature complete it holds me over for right now.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
I thought that too, but I heard several talking negatively about the closed source stuff so I tried Chroma.

Just polling others.....
[Nexus 6 Android Development] DreamFX:
I agree. It bothers me some. It's a risk you take I guess. Chroma is good. Just missing important things to me still. Just trying to remain patient for the roms to take off. It's killing me.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Honestly, I'm running Cataclysm. I think Apophis switched to Chroma.

People can say "It's not open source RAWR!!!" all they want. And honestly, I'd rather he post his source too. However, that said. Everybody uses each other's sources in this game. When you're writing stuff from scratch, it can be a little annoying that you spent 2-3 days, a week, whatever, writing some new code. Then the next day it's picked into 20-30 people's repos, since that only took seconds to do (with a clean pick). So I totally get him no releasing it.... and Honestly, if you're REALLY concerned about it, there's plenty of things out there to decompile an APK to source.

On LP, I was a HUGE fan of Pure Nexus. As soon as he finishes porting everything forward, I'll probably be back there personally.

Also.... on a side note... Tell me that this screenshot teaser of UKM/Synapse tweaks isn't sexxy.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Just fyi, we will be releasing a build tomorrow.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Does anyone out there have a kernel/rom combo that actually works with any sound boost driver?n (MM ONLY)

This next release will be sound driver - free...

They seem to do nothing anymore. If you have a use-case that works... Please tell me, the exact rom, kernel and sound settings (physical included, aux cable, speakers, BT) that result in a change.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Ive already said we are going to put out a release tomorrow. I just want everyone to be thankful for Yoinx. He has done some amazing stuff, not only kernel wise but what he has done with UKM. Hes good. Ive always wondered how many people come to our thread just to jack the UKM zip.....

You guys should be really happy tomorrow. Sometime tomorrow afternoon I will get with Yoix and make sure we have everything in place, then at some point after that we'll release a kernel and ukm build. As always if you update the kernel please update ukm (IF YOU USE SYNAPSE). Hope you all enjoy what we have for you
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
trying to get things together now, still have to wait for Yoinx
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
New kernel version up, V1.9. Also updated UKM to V13. If you use Synapse make sure you flash both kernel and UKM. Enjoy :)

Also updated OP to make sure features match what we have, updated links to the changelog (github) which is also kernel source, so that all points to the right direction now
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
Ok to flash the ukm over old one or delete first?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
You should always be able to dirty flash UKM and our kernel as long as you are coming from our UKM and kernel
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jamescable:
Problem booting

Anyone else having issues with booting this kernel on clean wipe? Wiping system, cache, data then flash (rom) then kernel.... It bootloops on every rom I try....but if I flash another kernel, THEN flash this....works fine
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Weird. Ive flashed both chroma and cataclysm rom and then flashed our kernel with no ill effects. Ive never flashed another kernel first
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
Does this use the any kernel method for disk. Want to be able to use wake gestures apk from flar2 Is it compatible? If not can you add? Tia

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3030399

[APP] Wake Gestures 1.1
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Pretty sure Yoinx fixed it to be compatible
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
Love this app on lollipop it's the cats ass
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Yeah, I use his app.

The only thing I modified on wake gestures was to make a few things tunable for times and distances.

Though, his app just depends on the wake gestures driver... Not sure why you're asking about the ramdisk for it... They're irrelevant of each other.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
Lol me either was thinking of two different things. So it works fine on mm with vortex?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
I haven't had any issues with it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Please read!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you downloaded V1.9 when I first posted it please update to V1.9.1 ASAP. I got something nasty that can cause lockups. I have reverted the 2 culprits and have compiled V1.9.1. Sorry, sorry,sorry for any inconvenience
[Nexus 6 Android Development] esl43:
Thx for the awesome work. But while I'm using synapse ,it always says apply on boot cancelled.Moreover, the max cpu frequence would be locked at 960Mhz unless untoggle the MSM_LIMITER.

In all, It works perfectly except for the two issues.

Awesome work?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Odd, Im using synapse with no issues. Are you on the latest UKM and kernel? Also try wiping caches (cache-dalvik cache).

Also I just updated UKM to 13.1. Give that a try
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Im not talking to everyone but if you have an issue we have a thread also it just doesnt FU**ING work does NOT help me help you
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Mr_S:
Logs and kmesg peeps come on its a click in synapse
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
You guys were right.. Faux Sound is irreprably broken on Marshmallow. I tried and tried and tried, quality profile is uselss now indeed - I was hoping if I ignored the reality long enough I could find an alternative, lol.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Yeah, I'm not the best with this sort of thing. What I'm seeing though, is when setting the values to positive boosts, the log outputs look correct. When setting them to negative values though, they start reporting values of like 250's. To me this looks like an int/unsigned int mismatch somewhere with the registers... but really... Viper (if you enable advanced mode) lets you tweak most of the same stuff anyway. Though, i'm unsure if that actually works either.

The audio has always sounded fine to me, for the most part anyway when using viper. I usually just set it to the 'Small Speakers' preset, which boosts the volume pretty significantly.

If you do find a rom/kernel combo on MM where it works. Let me know, and I'll try to incorporate it. But, it's going to take someone better than me to get it working again initially.

Edit:

Also, I've been seeing a lot of vmalloc failures in the dmesg lately. What I'm doing to fix this for now is just modifying the boot image's command line to increase the vmalloc to 320M instead of the ~200M that it seemed to be using. What does this mean? Really, nothing. This phone has 3GB of ram, so if you REALLY notice the extra 120M being reserved by the kernel.... I'd be a bit concerned about what you're using your phone for ;)

What it should fix though, is whatever's trying to allocate that memory (and generating the failure) is likely encountering some issues. I haven't dug into it too deep yet, but I'm guessing that it's the video driver. Which would also account for the occasional video stutter I've seen. This should hopefully correct that.

I'm going to keep working to try and figure out a way to just get the VmallocChunk to be a larger part of the total. Not really sure why it's not right now. If I can work that out, I probably wont need to allocate so much to fix that.

Expect to see this in the next release.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
This, my friends, is what I like to call the spirit of development alive and well. That is a genuinely kind offer and goes above and beyond what I would consider showing your users courtesy, being helpful and the other characteristics one would generally consider a "good dev" to have. I truly appreciate seeing this kind of attitude from developers, thanks a lot.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I figured for giggles I updated the OP with our Frequency list. I like to be transparent. As much info as I can give so people know what they are getting
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
Was wondering cause I got the same thing. Thanks for fixing it so quick
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Well a kernel that freezes up is good to no one. I try to keep it stable, those 2 even though i commited them got past me
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
I hate to say it but even 1.9.1 is studdering for me. My favorite version and most smoothest is 1.2. It flies with no issues for me.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Im reverting stuff now. Not everything but the things i have questions about.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
OK, no worries. When in a kernel app like kernel auditor there are a bunch of wake locks you can disable but I only see one or two in synapse. Am I missing something? There is one blue sleep wake lock there also should I disable it? Tia
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
There should be 4 wakelocks you can change in synapse, you may just need to wipe caches.

On another note Kernel V1.9.2 is up. I reset to an earlier date where I knew it to be stable. then added things back in like, Xperience governor, lz4 commits, added commit backin to use lp wifi drivers BUT I also got rid of a lot of commits causing issues

I think V1.9.2 will make you all happy
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
So far much better than previous. Thanks

---------- Post added at 02:13 ---------- Previous post was at 01:34 ----------

Spoke to soon started sticking and almost freezing on me. Back to 1.2 issue gone. Not using any funky settings at all just stock mostly
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jolly_roger_hook:
Can anybody post a link to the 1.2 zip file?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Use V1.9.2. I unborked all the crap causing the issues. Itsbeen running well for me so far.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jolly_roger_hook:
Ok I'll try it
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I did change a little code here and there but also changed ANY KERNEL. You can flash it if you wish.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347853471

Yoinx gave me the vmalloc fix for any kernel, that will be in the next release

Also truned android logger back on so people could debug
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Please excuse us as we change the kernel name
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Just updated OP with new build and new name. Heaven Shall Burn V1.9.3 is up. Enjoy! :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Im on V1.9.3 now. No issues what so ever. I did revert a few more things. The first version since we renamed it seems to be working great
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mhsbrian:
Two different aosp builds boot then go black screen for me and I was forced to flash alter kernel. I flashed 1.9.3, I tried with octo and cataclysm, both were clean installs as well.

Suggestions ?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Odd Im using cat rom not. Boots fine. I t does take a bit for it to optimize apps and actually get to the screen. I will be looking into this more today. Its the day off so Ill have some time
[Nexus 6 Android Development] mhsbrian:
Yeah, I've tried multiple ways here, loading it on clean, loading it after I've set it all up and still it gets to my lock screen, goes black or locks up. Could this be related possibly to the kernel ramping up to over 3GHZ automatically and my phone can't take it so it crashes ? If so, can I pre-configure a CPU manager to a certain available frequency on your kernel and maybe it will hold it back on boot ?

*Edit

Well I tried what I suggested and it gets past the lock screen, looks like it's gonna work then just goes completely black, can't do anything, then it automatically reboots. Don't have enough time to really do anything like get a log or whatever.

Hope this helps

Thanks
[Nexus 6 Android Development] WhiteEVO:
Same here, black screen, when I am able to get it to boot and raise the minimum and lower the max cpu, the rom is sluggish, freezes and has no data, and WiFi shows being on, but I go into settings and it's off...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Im looking at it now.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] fedef12evo:
I think the problem is msm limiter and maybe hotplugs
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I have no issues with either
[Nexus 6 Android Development] chipis:
The Link For M is not working.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I know a lot of you want answers. The truth is i got pissed at the code. I was gonna shut down the thread til we got it sorted out. As a RC I apparently can close the thread but not open it. We are not yet done, close though of getting rid of all the junk causing issues. When I post again, since we changed the name everything will be V1. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we get this sorted out
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
Might have missed it but what's the deal with the new name of the kernel ..... any significance besides the obvious literal insinuation of a heavenly kernel LOL :confused:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] KC69:
That's a ****ed up name, I'll not use it just for that.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
And thats your choice. I named it after my favorite band.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Yes, it's my favorite band
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
Cool.... They look like a band my son might listen to!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Yeah?

Your refund is in the mail.

If you don't have anything to contribute, move along.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
We will have a release sometime soon. Slim chance tonight, better chance tomorrow.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] remicks:
Says the guy with the Obama avatar. LMAO.

<Tapatalkin' from my Marshmallow eating Shamu>
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Mystique:
Hate to be that guy..

Is Vortex 1.7.4 a working kernel for Chroma?

Seems to boot me back into recovery..

Is there a working kernel for MM?

OP has a link to AFH that 404's..

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
People were reporting some odd behavior with the kernel so the download links were removed until it could be investigated.

New mm links should be back up tonight, maybe tomorrow.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
That is for lollipop, but as my team mate said there should be links up tonight (or) tomorrow. Most likely later tonight as I am git cloning it, then I just have to build, flash on my phone to test real quick, then ill upload.

New name and starting over. Everything will be V1. We will go from there. We are no longer using lollipop wifi drivers, instead went back to MM drivers and Yoinx grabbed some commits so MM drivers should be better for everyone.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Mystique:
Nexus 6 device showed up tonight..

I was trying out new things for the first time..

Thanks for the reply..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
half hour tops as long as theres no issues
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Heaven Shall Burn V1 is up. First, hope you enjoy. Second, if you have any issues with this kernel do not come in the thread and say "It's not working". Statements like that will be ignored. We need logs, ROM, and anything else pertinent to the kernel acting up. Again, I hope you all enjoy and big thanks to Yoinx for his patience and his work on MM wifi
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
FYI, WE ARE AWARE, if you try to select Mako hotplug and then hit the checkmark in synapse it doesnt stick. Please for the time being use another hotplug. It will be looked into as soon as possible
[Nexus 6 Android Development] dirtyscout:
With a new name and more to the team keep up the work guys. And this kerenl has always worked for me on chroma idk what your doing wrong but try to install ROM and kernel same time.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Version 1.1 is up. We forgot a few things, I brought in all the missing governors, mako hotplug now sticks when you set it and blu_plug has a toggle again. We have 2 more hotplugs, that earlier we removed so it wasnt so cluttered in hotplug section of synapse. Im going to leave it up to you guys as them being there causes no issues kernel wise or coding wise. So feel free to express your opinion

I killed Bricked Hotplug. The other hotplugs should be good enough. You can give feedback on next build
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
So, I didn't have issues with the Marshmallow wifi drivers to begin with... However, I had some dmesg failures being reported for part of the wifi driver having a mismatch of commands with the firmware (for a simple explanation). The extra commits that I pulled in from the 3.10 common branch for the bcmhd driver seem to have fixed those for me. So I'm guessing that it should have fixed issues for people with that driver.

For anyone that was having issues with M wifi drivers before, does it seem to be functioning better now?

We're aware of some of the driver wakelocks, the settings for them were missing out of UKM for the toggles. We also added one or two back in. so expect that in the next release along with a slew of tweaks/enhancments from apophis9283.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
OP has been updated, both kernel and UKM. Flash them together. A few highlights. There are now a ton of wakelocks you can control. I was surprised. Also we added 223 to underclock frequency. Enjoy!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] radatia:
Hi, I've just installed v1.2 to try, smooth so far.....I was just wondering if you could re-introduce the bluesleep wakelock control that was in the lollipop kernel - I get significant wakelocks from this.

Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
It's there, in the misc section of synapse.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] radatia:
OK, bluesleep doesn't show up in Kernel Adiutor but the other wakelocks do - strange.

Unfortunately Synapse doesn't appear to be compatible with JDX Rom that I am running (no UCI support apparently).....will switch Roms and try again.

Thanks.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
We have it. Are you using synapse? If so make sure you flash the UKM in the op and then flash our kernel. We have about 7 wakelocks you can control.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] radatia:
Cheers, got it - I had ignored the UKM when I first read the OP due to not using Synapse (I thought kernel adiutor had the same options).

Trying now, unticked the bluesleep wakelock (and changed the wake gestures) and have ended up in a bootloop....hmmmm.

---------- Post added at 05:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 PM ----------

Reflashed my old kernel and removed Synapse for now as I am heading out....will try again over the weekend.

Thanks.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I want to change the TC. Trying to get SM6.0 to compile
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Neither of those would have caused a boot loop.

In fact, nothing that you set in synapse would... Since synapse settings don't take effect until after the boot is complete. It sounds like you have something else going on.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] radatia:
Agreed - bootloop doesn't really make sense. Will it give it another go tomorrow.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
Hey guys I've been using the AOSiP ROM for several days now..... Pretty remarkable native kernel.... Snappy but battery not so good.

I've tried flashing the latest HSB kernel twice now and both time my phone won't boot..... Gets to a point and then shuts down - acts as though it's been manually shut down

Any suggestions on what else to do to fix or troubleshoot?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Does aosip have an m rom?

Edit: nvm I see it.

I'll try flashing it and see what's up. Might be a little bit though... Gotta fix my freezer first.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
You should for sure try...... Best I've used yet and...... It's open source!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Yeah. Everyone has their own rom preferences though.

I'm starting to think that the boot problems that people are having might have something to do with us packaging in chainfire's sepolicy binary from his boot images. Basically, I was trying to avoid people having to flash his boot images first. Though with the monthly security updates, it's possible that's causing issues on roms built after the monthly updates came out.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
After flashing Chainfire boot.img prior to kernel flash I've at least made it to the rebuilding cache stage ........ Looks like you may be right

---------- Post added at 05:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:20 PM ----------

Crap. Spoke too soon. Would not complete the boot
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Shouldn't have made a difference. We include the sepolicy file that flashing it is intended to give you. Like I said, I'm thinking maybe the inclusion of that file is the issue.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
Oh I see. I didn't understand at first
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Which version were you attempting to do this with?

I just tried the 01Nov2015 build of aosip, as it's the latest one in their OP. Booted perfectly fine with v1.2 of this kernel... and honestly... VERY quickly.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
V1.2

And I've tried three different times. Dispair kernel works. BLUSpark works. Elite works. For some reason Elemental would not not either. But no matter what I do HSB will not boot
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
No idea then.

But sorry... I can't reproduce.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jcrompton:
Hey .. Ii think I may have figured it out ...... I'll post just in case it helps someone else

I had been toying with some different things and I had EX Kernel Manager installed. It bothered me that the ROM was not bootlooping but shutting down or locking after booting - so I thought it might be an app or something. I froze the E Kernel manager app and tried again!

Voila -- booted right up and Quickly as you experienced!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
V1.3 is up in the OP. Few changes, we now use SaberMod 6.0 toolchain. Changed some Cpu-Boost stuff. Killed Bricked Hotplug. some other stuff.

Im still getting a lot of inquiries into the name change. Well, I changed it because I wanted to. If you would like to know what made me change it, I can only link you to a youtube video.
