Thanks for all your help in the thread. Hope to see you on another elementalx device someday.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] dfryer1193:
If it's a large problem for you and using the slider isn't a viable solution, you could try manually editing /System/etc/mixer_paths.xml. The only value that jumped out to me is the value at

<path name="handset">
[...]
<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="84" />
</path>

Try lowering the value "84" to something like "73".

It will require a reboot to take effect.

This is one of the files that the surround sound mod edits.

I remember that on the LG G2 (which had a very quiet speaker), we would edit this file and raise RX1 Digital Volume for the path that corresponded to the phone's speaker.

As always, make sure you have a backup handy in case you screw anything up.

It's just a hack and not really a solution, but it may hold you over until you have a chance to RMA your device.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] peikojose:
Tried your solution, are you sure RX1 means earpiece ?? Tried lowering it even 10 .. Sounds the same... Maybe total commander is not saving the changes? What app do you recommend..
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] dfryer1193:
I am not sure which path or paths you might need to modify. In that xml file, a path corresponds to an audio device, and the RX# values represent an internal volume level.

As far as which app to use to edit the file, any text editor that is able to write files with root permissions should do the trick. If you're having a hard time editing the file on your phone, you may try copying mixer_paths.xml to your SD card, then open the file on your computer with the phone connected via USB. I suggest using notepad++ or sublime text to edit the file on your computer, then copying the edited version over the version in /System/etc.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] peikojose:
I will try to down All the rx# values and test
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] dfryer1193:
I would make sure to test them one at a time, so you can be sure which path is the path that corresponds to that top speaker.

For a little more information, it may be worth looking and asking questions in this thread. I would guess that the creator of that mod spent a fair bit of time testing settings in mixer_paths.xml.

Anyone else having issues with double tap to wake?

Everything else seems to work ok,

RIco
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
Double tap to wake is stupid (honestly, I hate it)

Use sweep up to wake instead.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Azurael:
I loved it on my G2 and my partner uses it on her G3 but I've never found it to work consistently or reliably on anything other than LG's 'own' phones. I've had a lot of false wakes and battery life problems trying it on other Android devices and my Lumia 930 works but usually requires a lot more than two taps. It's slightly annoying not being able to quickly and conveniently wake the device while it's laying on a flat surface, but I'm now a convert to the convenience (and incidental added security) of bypassing the lock screen with the fingerprint sensor anyway.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
Use sweep up to wake, I can't live without it. It's a far superior gesture.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] andresee:

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Smultie:
I understand (and I'm already running the tweaks), but I am just really curious how someone with your knowledge on kernels looks at those settings.

If you like 'm, you could perhaps implement them in your kernels.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
Thank you for the kernel. Flashed onto stock rooted last night, bought your app, and it's been running just fine. I don't anticipate any issues since I'm stock rooted. I have noticed one thing with Sweep to Sleep that I would like your input on. This is the only gesture I have enabled. I tend to read in landscape (so navbar has shifted itself to the right) and noticed the Sweep to Sleep only works on the bottom part of the phone where the navbar normally is positioned in portrait. Is this normal or should it follow and work only with the navbar? It's not an issue for me, I just haven't seen it mentioned in the thread yet. The reason I ask, is because sweeping there will move the page up or down if you're reading an article but you intend to Sweep to Sleep.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
Unfortunately I can't tell within the kernel whether it's in portrait or landscape

nexus 5x

i had elemental X and EX manager working fine with ghost pepper cpu settings for over 20 days.

installed new elemetal X 4.09 through EX manager (paid version). device went ok for abt 20 minutes then shut itself down.

Now all i get when i connect it to a computer is Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008.

Now, can the developer help, please?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
Make a thread in the General help section, I'm not sure what you need to do. I hope you are able to fix it but I want to be clear: this is not related to the kernel or app.

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] Hey! I had some problems with app that require special access (priv-app), I had SELinux denials in the logcat, and due to that I have moved SELinux into permissive mode, and now everything works. But some users of my ROM have reported that SystemUI (that app) is crashing after flashing ElementalX, I need your permission, to build your kernel with SELinux permissive and post it in my ROM's thread.

Best regards,

argraur
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
Yes, you can do that if you want. I would suggest trying to figure out the selinux issues though. Selinux is the most important security feature on Android.

I'm trying to see if the kernel is impacting Google App's (7.3.xxxx) ability to have always on mic. Can I simply flash a different kernel over EX or is there a special uninstaller?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] SlimSnoopOS:
Flash your custom rom to remove a custom kernel. If you are using the stock rom, flash the stock boot.img from the factory image to remove your custom kernel. Then switch to another custom kernel.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] scoliosis:
Makes sense. Thanks!

Hey [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] , may you add franco sound control because while I used the EX Kernel, it lacks of bass like stock kernel.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
All the sound control.is the same.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] zurik:
I mean that the sound isn't the same as stock. It lacks of bass .....
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] froader:
Speaking of sound, is there any way to boost in-call earpiece or speaker sound? For whatever reason I'm finding it to be low this month and it is independent from the sound controls available or Google's Phone app is the culprit.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flar2:
Hmm, this happened on the Nexus 9, it was due to a security update. I can't test it because my 5X is dead.

I can't do anything about sound right now, since my 5X died.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] froader:
Sorry to hear about the 5X. I heard they extended the warranty to 2 years because of the lawsuit. Always a pain to deal with, but an option.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] zurik:
This was appeared since idk... when I flashed EX kernel on 7.0 on September's Security Patch.... I don't know if this appeared (Lack of bass) on older versions since MM. So if your Nexus 5X died, don't worry.

So if you can merge the commits for Yellow screen fix..... Yellow tint in 5X is irritating... I will make a test....

P.S.: This lack of bass gives no distortion when a music track have lot of bass with Souround Sound mod.

Short story: Is it possible to modify headphones gain via shell command line (Tasker)?

Long story: I hate the hissing sound on low volume in headphones on my Nexus 5x, so I modify headphone gain in Ex Kernel Manager/Sound/Headphones section to "-10", which effectively fixes this for me. However for some reason, it decreases also speaker volume for calls (no headphones attached) which is then quite low. As a workaround, I wanted to use Tasker to lower the gain with headphones attached and reset it to "0" when disconnected. However I have no idea how to achieve this. There seems to be no integration of EKM with Tasker and I couldn't find how to pass different value via shell.

Any help will be appreciated :)
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] flocke000:
Here are the shell commands to set the headphone gain manually.

They have to be executed as root (I have no idea how to do that in Tasker ...).

Headphone gain -10:

echo "246 246" > /sys/kernel/sound_control_3/gpl_headphone_gain

Headphone gain 0:

echo "0 0" > /sys/kernel/sound_control_3/gpl_headphone_gain
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] _mysiak_:
Amazing, this is exactly what I was looking for. Just for anyone interested, current Tasker version doesn't work correctly with Magisk root, so just use shell task without root in the options, but use this command instead:

"

/sbin/su -c "echo "0 0" > /sys/kernel/sound_control_3/gpl_headphone_gain"

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] LoneWanderer_97:

Core control should be enabled and msm_thermal should be disabled. Don't mess with these settings if you don't know what are you doing.

[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Jatin Bhansali:
I have this kernel installed along with ex kernel manager app and have set Maddog profile. Also there is an app called spectrum (Mapleroot Development) in play store, which allows us to set four different profiles ( performance, battery saver etc). If I install both of these apps and select battery saver option in spectrum. Will there be any issue?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] buffer overflow:
I think Mapleroot is useless in this context when you have EX Kernel Manager. Issue ? Probably, but not recommend to manage kernel from two apps. Choose one of them and use.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] nathanchance:
It's not a problem if they manage different things, especially since both apps are geared for different tasks. Spectrum is to easily swap between profiles and that's all it does, EXKM can manage everything.

Spectrum is irrelevant here anyways though, it requires ramdisk support that EX doesn't have.

Hi people why in ex kernel manager when I want to up the big cluster frequency to 1824 the value stay at 633 ? Do you have an idea ?
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] buffer overflow:
Thermal throttling. In that moment when you want to change frequency value, phone is "hot" and stay on that value. After is cool max frequency returns to normal.
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Ringanar:
But if i make the thermal throttling temperature higher will it work ? And after the phone is cool if i set it at max will ti turn it down again when it gets hot ? And why doesn't it let me turn off core 4 i can turn off every other core but core 4
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] Wawax:
Ah thank you
[Nexus 5X Original Android Development] buffer overflow:
You can try to change temp up but is not recommend because we have Nexus 5X "bullloop" ? and hot is not good for him. Handling core off or frequency is approximately, so i don't think you will have success because " Frequency and cores are controlled by system process. These settings may not persist". Copy/paste from EX Manager. ;)
