[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] JSBmanD:
And I can't fix this or turn off immediately as they started?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
Only if you turn off the thermal-engine, which is not advisable.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] JSBmanD:
Is it "msm-thermal" or "core-control"? They're already turned off.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
No, thermal-engine, it's a system service.

To stop it, as root, in terminal or adb shell:

stop thermal-engine

But you will have no protection from overheating processor or battery, so I don't recommend leaving it like that. There still could be other system processes that affect the cores and frequencies. I recommend letting the system manage those things. IF you want to save battery, select lower frequencies during installation of the kernel.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Giorgos Chatziioannou:
A stupid question, but if we should not flash over other custom kernels, how can we get f2fs?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ndarkside93:
You can't, and there are no plans by the dev to add the file system support. He tweaks for performance and stability, and tries to stay close to stock when possible. Plus he no longer has a 5x so he's only providing monthly security updates at this point
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Giorgos Chatziioannou:
Oh ok :(

Couple more questions then

What would be a good kernel with f2fs support to use. Prefferably with ota updates like EX

If for example, i install EKXM to stock then many options are missing; would installing a more customizable kernel enable enable more toggles/options?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ndarkside93:
Well if you want a build based off ex ex kernel than Jolla. Racer offers a stripped down kernel that includes essential updates and f2fs. Franco is another well respected dev. Those are the three kernels that support f2fs. Hope that info helps you. Jolla has an included updater app you must enable during kernel installation. Franco has a free app that just updates and installs his kernel. His paid allows you to tweak like exkm does. Best of luck.

it offers the opportunity by default, the standard value is 0.

OK, sorry to bring this back to the front from a few weeks back but this is exactly where I am right now. Pure Nexus, Elementalx 4.04 and cannot, for the life of me, get better battery life. Have you found any answers yet, RBT? Thanks for any help everyone!

Very new to this of course but I clicked this link to the github file. Is there anything I need to "do" in order to enact this SafetyNet feature? Thanks for any help with this!
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nathanchance:
No. All this does is remove detection of an unlocked bootloader, SafetyNet can still fail for a whole HOST of other reasons.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] kurtisherzog88:
Ah, so even though I have all this going on my phone, there is no guarantee that AP will work? Thanks so much for the help!!
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Correct, you'll need to hide root and other such things.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] stmims1124:
No, but it is easily adjusted using the EX Kernel Manager app
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] zagorteney:
Tnx. I know that. But it seems that even without changing gain values with manager it sounds better then stock.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] hsquare:
I have some questions just for verificiation: I am using this kernel with ElementalX-App and FairparkHE governor on a 5x. After I loaded the Fairpark-profile, the only thing I do is selecting "apply at startup" and disabling Touchboost by clicking on "deactivate" and that "switch"-button right next to it. Now it says:

------

In the "CPU" section, turn off "Touchboost". (This is crucial!! YOU MUST TURN OFF TOUCHBOOST OR ELSE YOU WILL NOT SEE ANY BATTERY SAVINGS!!!) Make sure the "Max CPU Frequency" is set to the maximum possible value for each CPU. Make sure the "Min CPU Frequency" is set to the minimum possible value for each CPU. Then set the following values for each CPU under "Governor options" for each CPU respectively:

CPU #1 (aka "little", aka "has 4 cores", aka "maxes out at 1440Mhz")

target_loads - 75 460000:69 600000:80 672000:76 787000:81 864000:81 960000:69 1248000:78

timer_slack - -1

hispeed_freq - 460Mhz

timer_rate - 20000

above_hispeed_delay - 30000 600000:20000 672000:10000

go_hispeed_load - 75

min_sample_time - 60000

CPU #2 (aka "big", aka "has 2 cores", aka "maxes out at 1824Mhz")

target_loads - 72 480000:68 633000:74 768000:80 864000:81 960000:69 1248000:83 1344000:84 1440000:84 1536000:84 1632000:86 1689000:83

timer_slack - 80000

hispeed_freq - 633Mhz

timer_rate - 10000

above_hispeed_delay - 10000

go_hispeed_load - 72

min_sample_time - 100000

Under "CPU Boost", set "input boost milliseconds" to "0".

----

1. Would I really have to change the other settings mentioned or is Fairpark-governor already doing that for me?

2. Do I have to hit more of those round buttons in the ElementalX-app so that so that Fairpark-settings will be applied?

3. Under "further options" (or "expanded options" or sth, I have the German version) there also is a "apply at startup"-button, which is currently deactivated (with options like "sched_window_stats_policy"), would I have to activate that, too?

Maybe that's stupid questions, but it is not becoming clear for me from reading this thread:

This is not the answers your looking for but try and hit apply more than once on profile in EXKM. Also I've gotten best results all around using DrunkSauce Lite and Hawktails 1.2 profiles far as battery goes. Check those out some time and see what you think.. Maybe someone else can give you better feedback on your spacific question than I can. Hope that helps a little.... :cool:

Did you even read the installation instructions in the post you just linked? Sonicron spells it out pretty clearly. Apply the profile and hit the apply on boot toggles on the governor tunables, input boost ms/freq and touchboost. Also, that thread is not closed. Maybe a little less active but I still watch it and try to help in there. You could also try the devbase thread.

If you have made a nandroid backup first to flash Franco kernel it's easy. Is necessary that you restore only kernel partition (PN kernel). Otherwise you will flash the rom completely

I have not android backup ... I never do that (exist factory images) I have only backup EFS partition. Do you think will be ok if I flash only Pure Nexus kernel via fastboot and after that flash ElementalX?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] mastro_misciu:
depends on how kernel is invasive. Some kernel also write on other partitions as system. may not be enough kernel flash. For this we should always flash the rom again

Do a kernel backup and try it. If it doesn't work, restore the previous kernel.

Always remember ElementalX only affects the boot.img, so it's easy to backup and restore.

EX Kernel Manager:

Is there option how to disable battery notification without disable service battery monitor?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] joetheshmo:
You just have to block notifications from exkm, unfortunately, which blocks the update notifications as well. I believe the battery monitor service will get removed from memory without the notification
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] yl1504:
Can confirm this, no problems so far!
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] stmims1124:
Because the battery monitor is a continuously running service, the newer versions of Android actually require a persistent notification. [MENTION=7037416]joetheshmo[/MENTION] is correct, if you want the battery monitor service to run, you either have to put up with the notification, or swipe the notification to the side, click the gear setting icon, and tell it to block ALL notification from EXKM.

Odd problem. I go to sleep with the phone plugged in and charging, then sometimes, I am awoken by it's display on and sitting at a bootloop while showing the animation sequence. I'd have to look at the log to see what time exactly.

I am assuming this is a kernel issue. The only things I change in the app are "disable touchboost" and enable "swipe-up to wake".

Is this a known issue at all?

Just wanted to say thanks to flar2 for the continued development of ElementalX!! I've been around and used quite a lot of kernels with their apps, but ElementalX is the whole package!

With the default kernel settings, I loaded up HawkTail1.2 and I'm absolutely amazed at the battery life and responsiveness. Major night and day difference! WOW!!

On this website you find a zip file. Unpack it. Then unpack the zip in it. Then all you have to do is, flash the boot.img with fastboot. If you dont know how to do that, I recomend Heisenbergs Guide. (Google: Heisenberg Guide xda Nexus 5X) :p

ElementalX only affects the boot partition, so flashing only the boot.img will be enough

I bought the app and did a kernel backup, it is also possible install the ElementalX by the app or only by recovery?

You can use the app to download and install updates, it will reboot to recovery and install.

For the backup function, you can save and restore backup images from the app, without recovery.

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] joetheshmo:
Flars zips for the kernel are flashed in TWRP. The type of installation the zip is called is AROMA installation, where you get to choose options as you're flashing it (IE overclock/under lock, change the io scheduler, etc)

Chances are if you're already on the kernel you've already experienced the aroma installer.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] SYRE123:
Ah, now I know what you're talking about! I thought it was an app of some kind. When I did install the kernel for the first time I got all these options. I assume they will pop up in TWRP once I install the 4.05-version? :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] ndarkside93:
Yes, when you flash the zip, the aroma installer will open and you can set those options during installation.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] SYRE123:

Noted your experience, I was talking about my experience in mako (nexus 4). I got awesome performance for a couple of hours and then the cell slowed to a crawl with super stuttering which was only resolved via reboots. That's why I said that it was a placebo.

Also kindly explain how you get the f2fs working with elemental?? As I am under the impression that flar2 will not support it.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Mrcactuseater:
I never said I was using elemental. I am only comparing it to my 5X on ext4 and f2fs subsequently.
