Thank you! I had to clear both data and cache but it's working now. :good::good:

Glad to have helped. Happened to me sometimes for other apps which misbehave

Guys hello, I have a Nexus 6P with PureNexus (7.1.1) Rom and Flash Kernel. I want to go stock Kernel and then Install ElementalX. Do I need to Wipe everything, return to stock and then flash again PureNexus Rom + ElementalX Kernel?

Thanks in advance, Michail
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Badger50:
Just wipe cache and dalvik, dirty flash your rom, then install Ex kernel :good:
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] HoodChef:
I'm trying this right now. Hope it works. Thanks for the answer
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Badger50:
For future reference, if your using the EXKM app, once you install a new rom, let it boot up, then go into the EXKM app, and backup the stock kernel. Makes changing kernels a whole lot easier down the road :good:
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] HoodChef:
Awesome tip! Thanks a lot, again! :) :)

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] i see a new option in exkm called "perfd".

i did some research and found out this is somehow tied to touchboost. does this mean: when i use an interactive profile with touchboost disabled (and only input boost active) i should disable perfd, too? cause this is not whats happening when applying such a profile.

thanks!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
Perfd does many things, not really sure about all of them and it differs from device to device.

I recommend leaving it enabled. There is no need to disable it for gov profiles.

Anyone have a link to the kernel for February? I had to reflash my ROM and the link on this page takes me to the march update. Thanks.

In case you didn't know, EX Kernel Manager has a little "easter egg" (sort of): Tapping the image at the top of the slide menu will cycle through 15 different images.

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] the image shown in the screenshot is my favorite. Do you have a full size version I could use for my device background?

Thanks!

Could you add an option to activate Android battery saver mode with ElementalX battery saver mode as FrancoKernel Manager in your app? :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
What would be the point? Just enable Android's battery saver if you want to use it.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] slwest78:
Can't I flash the March kernel on stock February security patch?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
Yes, you can.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] martonimix:
I think there are people who want to turn ECO mode on because they really need it and I think they are well to have the option to activate have both saving modes for Android and ElementalX.

With one click on the toggle ECO mode switch we would both activate

Sorry for my english and thanks for your great work [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] !! :D

Does Android's built in battery saver change CPU settings? I'm guessing it could override my profile, for example?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
It's one of many things that can override cpu settings.

Will the be a kernel for Android 0 Dev preview?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] info[]box1:
This kernel has been the most re via reboots and that being said, Elemental kernel has been my kernel of choice over 6+ months. And is based upon Mobile Gaming experience. ie: Marvel's Contest of Champions. Fluid and Smoove sum up to Awesomeness. Thanks you OP.

Also: I only tweak up overclock 1 knot above stock. Had done higher in past with no issue.

Edit, Running Stock+ custom ROM
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] pa.pn2:
Everytime i block wakelocks in ex app and apply on boot they are enabled again after boot.

anyone else?

And flar did u change kernel to moderat? Wasn't it strict before?

Does the 7.1.1 version work with 7.1.2 beta? Search function found nothing.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] lovepreetheer:
can i used this over a stock android 7,1,2 image?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] marbertshere:
I ask because my battery seems to drain quicker with the built in battery saver on. Could this be due to its functions or is it most likely just my battery?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Snow_ball:
Yes, no problem with either of the two 7.1.2 betas
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
There was a bug, fixed in 3.09. Make sure you switch apply on boot off and then on again.

I don't use battery saver modes, so not sure. But it shouldn't drain faster.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] kakabobo:
what the use of perfd in 3.10? should I enable of disable it?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Badger50:
Flar2 said to leave it enabled a couple of pages ago.

Why did my 6p boot loop after flashing 4.06 on 7.1.1 stock? Never had a boot loop issue before flashing this kernel.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] sonysingh1983:
Hi, I'm running pure nexus with default kernel. I have ex kernel manager the paid version. I'm curious to c if there is any difference in battery performance between the default kernel and ex.

What is everyone getting for their battery performance?...

I'm using powersave governor getting around 14% screen on and 1.3% idle.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
That seems pretty good

Don't use the powersave or userspace governors though, stick to interactive.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] :
I've been using Ex kernel with various profile's for a week+ now on Pure Nexus rom and I am happy. For me Hawktail profile works best. I've tried them all and then some. Tks Aaron! :good:
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mobileman88:
Never had such a problem with this kernel. Did you flash a stock boot.img and cache.img before flashing this kernel as your previous kernel could have something which conflicts if not stock.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] slwest78:
Completely stock. I've never had such a problem with this kernel either and I've flashed it many times. I'd like to know what happened so I can flash this kernel.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
No big changes lately, it's the same as always.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] tech_head:
Wipe caches?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] slwest78:
I've flashed it many times with no issues, I'm trying to understand why it boot looped, I tried it twice. Could it be that I flashed 4.0.6 on February security patch?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] therock3181:
No
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mobileman88:
I had used this kernel with every monthly update since mid of last year. No issues whatsoever with boot loop except when I don't clear cache of use a fresh boot image. Why don't you try that again?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] slwest78:
I don't know what caused it then.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] an0n981:
Instead of guessing for days why not grab a log of the loop?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] slwest78:
Didn't know I could.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] slwest78:
I downloaded the kernel again and it worked without issue, I must've just gotten a bad download.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] reddv1:
I'm having an issue on 4.0.6, the screen freezes and won't respond, even the power button to turn off the screen doesn't work. Phone calls and audio keep working in the background. Anyone having this issue?

Only thing enabled is dt2w.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] maferrario:
Hello guys, I'm having an issue, since I flashed the kernel on pure nexus, my battery charges slower, is any option I have to check to turn on quick charge? I'm using stock nexus charger, ty.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
There is no difference between this and the stock kernel for charging. Sometimes it will charge slow if it is warm or something else is going on with the battery. Unless you have a hardware problem (not likely), the slow charging will be temporary, and might even be solved with a reboot.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] maferrario:
Thank you, for your work excellent kernel and even better with the Ex kernel manager, keep up the good work.

I'm going to wait a few days then, to see if the slow charge solves, again ty.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nicholasknicks:
Which Rom are you using , sometimes the problem happens to me but its ussually Rom related if i switch the rom no matter the kernel charging gets back to normal
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Curiousrge:
Is it working on 7.1.2?!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] ArmStrongDickPunch:
Yup working perfectly!

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Kind of hard when there is no O kernel source out yet ;)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] hmillos:
I have a small and kind of noobish question, is the "Android OS" battery usage reported in Android settings related to Kernel?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:

But that doesn't mean I'm going to do an O kernel right now. I will be investigating Android O in the coming weeks to see how it has changed.

Will this work on 7.1.1
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nicholasknicks:
It is meant for 7.1.1
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
Actually it's meant for 7.1.2, but it should also work on 7.1.1. However, I didn't test it.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] marbertshere:
So I'm guessing not much was changed on Google's end?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] hectorviov:
I'm currently on the 7.1.2 beta and updated with the exkernel manager, after restarting I'm getting system ui force close. Anyone else? How can I fix it? I'm rooted with magisk..
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
Systemui closing doesn't seem kernel related. If I ever have a problem like that I just do a clean install.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] techinv:
Has anyone that is running 7.1.1 tested the latest kernel?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] BelzIgoh:

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] redduc900:
[MENTION=280655]trim81[/MENTION] You need to first flash the boot image from whatever ROM you're running, then flash the EX kernel. From the OP...
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] phantom146:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] does elementalx have f2fs support? Thx
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Triscuit:

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Base2:
Take a look at the Flash's kernel and his recovery for f2fs support. He also has a custom version of TWRP with f2fs support built in. I'm unsure whether the changes ever made it unto mainline.

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] ad_slev:
Same situation here, coming from Franco kernel

So do I flash boot image from the ROM files and then flash this kernel ?

Like so ?

Wipe cache + dalvik then flash Boot image

Then similarly this kernel ?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Balino:
Yes, flash stock boot.img or dirty flash your ROM zip, then ex kernel. Wipe cache/dalvik at the end of the process or in between is the same.

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] techinv:
Anyone else experiencing this? I'm on the 7.1.2 EX kernel. However, EX kernel manager is prompting me about the 7.1.1 update.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
Probably because you are on 7.1.1

Since it works on either, I'll change it to offer the latest kernel to 7.1.1 users
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] boxcar8028:
@ OP

The new audio high performance mode is AWSOME! This with Viper is Amazing! The sound is much cleaner and way more transparent then stock on my 6p. Thank you sir… :victory:
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] i_pk_pjers_i:
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but is 7.1.2 stable? Can I update from 7.1.1 by just dirty flashing (boot.img, vendor.img, system.img, bootloader, radio)?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] techinv:
If you mean just updating the EX kernel, yes you can update and it is stable. I updated the kernel by dirty flashing the updated kernel only.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] i_pk_pjers_i:
Nope, I mean actually going from Android 7.1.1 to 7.1.2. I assume it's okay but I wanted to check if anyone did it here.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] NXJeff:
Thanks for your comment, didn't know there is an option like that. I've just tried it. I am on viper as well. Enable and Disable it did not feel any different between them immediately. Might need OP to clarify what is this option meant for.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] kyzn:
Lol. At first I thought it was on by default. Only to find out why there wasn't any changes to audio. Silly me.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] boxcar8028:
I think it's only noticeable with headphones not sure about Bluetooth but last night I tested with my Bose headphones and going back and forth I could definitely tell a difference of clarity, it's just sounds nicer and cleaner.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] therock3181:
I'm not a audiophile expert but I didn't see any difference on or off.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
If there is a difference, it will be subtle. It only applies to headphones and you have to unplug and replug the headphones for the change to happen.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] steveo17:
so this does not apply to bluetooth audio then?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
No, it's only for headphones plugged into the headphone jack.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] therock3181:
Thanks. I will try out it for a couple of hours on and off.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] NXJeff:
Thank flar2. I have just tested it on my car modified stereo and it does quite a big difference. Honestly I don't like to use 6p as source via aux cause the sound is not flat, felt like something is missing compare to the flat produced by the stereo head unit. But with Audio High Performance Mode enabled, it seems to have a little boost/improvement at low frequency around 50hz to 100hz, not as weak as when it is disabled. Not sure what u did at the code but it does improved alot. Thanks alot!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] accessive:
I just tried to update to the latest EX kernel version, & when it reboots to install via TWRP, it apparently fails, although all i see is a very brief flash of red letterings before TWRP screen covers it all up so I'm unsure what the failure is. I have never had any issues with the kernel updating & I've not changed anything.

I'm running systemless rooted stock 7.1.1 on Nexus 6P with TWRP. Kernel is on 4.06 trying to update to latest. I'm going to download the update zip manually & flash it then I'll report back, but i just wanted to throw that info out there as FYI since I've never encountered any such problem updating & i noticed 7.1.1 wasn't tested.

Also, off topic a bit, does anyone recommend updating to Android 7.1.2 over 7.1.1? Would i gain anything or is it recommended to use 7.1.2 over 7.1.1 for EX kernel? Thx.

[MENTION=616694]tech-head[/MENTION] - it's sad the forums have degraded to the point of having to instruct ppl to read the OP post, but i understand your post... However not the case here.

As stated in a following post, I concur that it was most likely a bad download which caused an initial integrity check to fail or possibly an incomplete zip as the size of the manual download did not match that of the failed counter part.

Either way, after a manual download & install of 4.07, it installed flawlessly as usual (@flar2 thank you for your excellent work) & all is well here in 7.1.1 with 4.07. Definitely some of the best kernel money I've ever spent.

Could you have a look at this log please? It has to do with your kernel manager. Whenever I open your kernel manager in split screen with any other app and go to CPU -> CPU Temperature your app will force close on me after about 5 seconds. It's been like this for a while I've just now had the motivation to get a log for you. I'm on a 6P running the latest DU RC with stock kernel. See my attachment...

Edit: I also just update your app via the playstore

Just a heads up, it seems that the launcher icons of your HBM widget app are way to big (504x504 instead of 168x168 on 3.5 density). I found out through this app after this post on reddit, would be cool if you could take a look at this issue. :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] matique:
Searched the thread but there isn't a concrete answer. My color profiles are not sticking. I applied the color profile, the color reverts back to stock when I turn off the screen. Running lineage 7.1.2, ex kernel with EXKM. Also running Substratum if that's important.

I've tried whitelisting EXKM from system doze. I've uninstalled greenify, and set the color profile to apply on boot. Problem still persists.

If needed I can record a logcat.
