You can either fastboot the boot.img or flash in TWRP by clicking the Images button in the lower right hand corner of the Install screen. Only do that if you are running stock though. If you are running a custom ROM, just dirty flash it before installing EX.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] chrisexv6:
Keep in mind it was 1.5% PER HOUR. Not overnight.

Ive had kernel/ROM combos on my N6P with as little as 0.2% idle drain *per hour*. So 1.5% is outrageously high for my setup. As is the 30% per hour active drain, so something is up somewhere.

EX Kernel running for the past few hours has seemed to calm down somewhat, idle drain down to 1.05% per hour, active down to 25% per hour.

But I still get a lot of CPU MHz jumping when I check the live CPU status in EXKM....not sure why the phone wont calm down.

My battery dropped about 20% last night!!!!!

Could someone tell me how to remove this kernel and go back to the stock one?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Badger50:
Fastboot, or twrp your stock boot image. Or dirty flash your rom if your on custom, or use the EXKM app to restore your stock kernel backup, if you made one that is.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] -Deco-:
Make sure you disable KSM, ZRAM and every other setting under "Memory". Aside from Virtual Memory and Low Memory Options everything else should remain disabled.

Fine tune your CPU governor options - cap the maximum frequency for the large A53 cluster at 1344MHz and disable hexacore mode. Set the minimum frequencies of both governors to 344MHz and disable all forms of gestures.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
I made some changes to the High Brightness Mode app (basically it's a whole new app). So if you bought it some time ago and uninstalled it along the way, you might be pleasantly surprised if you download it again.

You don't want undervolting, it will make battery worse becasue it disables automatic voltage
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Face_Plant:
If you read the original post you'll see that this is basically a stock kernel with the ability to tweak all of the stock parameters and is focused on stability. If the stock kernel doesn't have voltage control tweaks or F2FS support, then ElementalX won't have it either. The ability to mess with voltages would have a lot of careless/clueless users bricking their devices or getting random reboots, so they'd come in here and blame the kernel developer when in reality it's all their fault.

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] AforAnonymous:
1. Flashed angler-opm3.171019.016-factory-08de5265 (Stock, March update.)

2.. Converted to File-Based Encryption (FBE) via developer options.

3. Flashed the special TWRP build from https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-...ment-372503905 to have TWRP with FBE support

4. At this point, phone can boot & works fine, FBE works as intended.

5. Flashed ElementalX-N6P-6.03.zip from TWRP. [btw., why no zip signature? I checked the MD5 provided by android file hoster and it does match the zip I have, so, not why I ask. Not that important tho.]

6.. Phone remains stuck in active boot animation (i.e. the animation does NOT freeze, phone does NOT bootloop, just... the boot never ends.)

Any suggestions for figuring out why/how this happens? Franco has the same issue by the way: https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/orig-development/kernel-franco-kernel-r1-t3266864/post76059492

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] GogoAkira:
Hello

and thank you.

A feature suggestion:

- Disable volume lowering of sound clip while playing notification sound over it.

I have been using ur kernel on nexus 6p because even the stock settings for screen look better so if Android will not do this it falls to you guys. This is a very annoying feature some programmer who thought he has a degree in psychology and sound propagation decided it was a good thing to do. I know I can hear the notification sound while my video clip is playing because of when my brother is talking then my sister says something over his voice and I heard her without my brother lowering his voice, I'm not deaf. I've been trying to learn Qur'an on Android, I don't understand the language so then a notification comes in, and what's even more pointless is it doesn't even contain words of language as in case when my sister speaks, it's just a sound which is heard and it not need be loud so you can understand what it is saying because it's not saying anything. I know a notification came because it interrupted the sound quality of what I'm listening to, it need not turn down volume of my clip, if the notification was silent and all it did was to turn down volume of my clip without playing any extra sound I would know there's a notification, just like when listening to radio interference comes in without turning down the volume of radio you still hear the sound of interference, or when a car pulls up you can hear their music too without lowering your own volume. They're trying to break our concentration.

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] sethukrishnan:
Off topic but, flat I had purchased your HBM app long ago, I installed your kernel yesterday after a long time.

Downloaded HBM app, checked weather it worked, and it worked.

But thr is something strange tht I noticed, I felt like the brightness was not up to the mark, so I opened your Exkernel manager app, and checked high brightness mode (over the high brightness mode that I have already toggled using the widget) and when I check the HBM in exkernel app, the brightness further increases.

Is it that it further increases, or is it that the HBM app is not working ???

Toggling through the app without toggling in HMB app also maintains the same brightness as with the HBM app toggled.

I really like your HMB app, so I would like to get that brightness with the exclusive app, which I did purchase. :D
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
It should be the same brightness, make sure HBM has root and click reset in the menu.

Hi [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]

I've got a small issue with Ex Kernel Manager. I've recently flashed the latest Lineage OS on my Nexus 6p, flashed your kernel and installed Ex Kernel Manager. However, when launching the manager, I'm stuck at the "Checking license..." message. I've already tried reinstalling the app to no avail. On my Pixel XL everything's working great. Before you ask, yes, I've purchased the app on the Play Store. Any ideas what the issue might be? Maybe a missing Google service?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
It's definitely a Google Play issue. Try wiping Google Play data and reboot
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] MrMarques01:
Thank you for the quick response. It was indeed a Google Play issue, more precisely, an issue with the Gapps variant I was using. After wiping the system an installing a different Gapps package, everything is working fine. Thanks again!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
What gapps were you using and which gapps fixed it? I'm getting slaughtered with emails and one-star reviews because of this right now and I'd like to suggest a solution.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] MrMarques01:
I'm sorry to hear that.

The one I was using first and that caused the problems was OpenGapps Nano. The one that was eventually working was MindTheGapps which can be found on the Lineage OS website here: https://wiki.lineageos.org/gapps.html.

I can't say with certainty though that using a different Gapps package was the solution, it might have been because I wiped system/cache in TWRP. But at least doing a wipe and flashing the MindTheGapps package solved the problem for me.

Open gapps 06/27 is working well with your app. It's a licencing check issue on play store, user's should revert back to an older gapps like I did or try installing an older play store version than 10.7. Substratum also has a problem where themes aren't able to open. The gapps i used is the only solution I know that works. :) Hope that helps!

In general reducing your maximum CPU speed will help reduce heat, naturally it will also affect performance. Tho this phone has a nice metal backing so just stick it in front of a fan/ AC or lick it and blow to cool it off :P

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] matlala:
Dear Aaron [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] and all other XDA members,

You should give me small answer to my problem.

BIG cluster cannot be online too long than some time ago (around 2 months), I disable core_control and enable msm_thermal + manual enable core4-7. It resolve my problem around 90%.

Next problem is reboot, my N6P stuck on google logo long time and i must do 1-2x hard reboot (with holding power button for a 5-10s). After, device boot normally.

I uses stock latest ROM, magisk 16.0 (stable) latest elementalx and better thermal-engine.conf (magisk module Unified Thermal Mod for Android oreo 8.x.x) + susbtratum without root (andromeda). Typically CPU load temperature is 60-70°C (60-65°C usually).

I have N6P almost 1.5 years, I gt bootloop in last summer and send N6P to warranty repair. My motherboard was changed (time was only problem, Germany authorised enter must wait to manufacturing new 128GB motherboard for me for 2 months). 3/4 years ago I changed baterry after warrary end.

So, Does anyone have an idea where can be problem? My ideas is:

HW problem (early bootloop problem)

Magisk

other SW problem

I should try:

Change battery + replace thermal paste on CPU

Clean flash

________________

EDIT:

I change battery [ad1] again (2. change) And thermal paste [ad2] and Phone is like new without touching with thermal-engine.conf, but Temperatures is lowest and cooling is more better and faster. BIG cluster do not shutdown around 30 battery, but after 10% battery. I must play with thermal-engine.conf or try startup script to automatic enable core4-7 with msm_thermal (put cores to online state).

ad 1: I buy battery from the same shop (sunnysoft.cz), but battery looks like the same like stock battery from manufacturer. My 1st battery was some different printing and different flex cable). So it should be fake original battery. I had it for a 3/4 years... So It was a reason.

ad2: I use Thermaltake gizzy kryonaut. And I inpirated from this xda thread: https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/general/guide-improve-cooling-greatly-reduce-t3323898
