[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Chochiwpg:
Just providing an update. Tried your suggestion and even had the phone sit about 15mins after reboot, went into the app to make sure the settings had stayed at boot and they did, however the gestures didn't work. Turned the screen off and on a couple times manually. Still didn't work. Went back into the app, disabled and then re enabled the gestures and it now works properly.

No idea, not a huge issue. I'll just have to remember to manually disable and re enable after each boot to get it to work. Only takes a few secs anyway. Just thought I'd mention my experience. Thanks again for the suggestion, app awesome kernel. Love it, makes my 6P work exactly how I want. Peace. ✌
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
It is the same thing. Pretty sure the swipe triggers a power button press in the kernel.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
I still don't understand this, these settings are black and white, on or off, no in-between.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Evanescent:
thank you for fast reply :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] 4redstars:
I'm an android pay user so I'd like to know if I get all of the base benefits of the kernel without the gestures if I'm not rooted?

With the news recently about Pay not working with systemless root I may have unroot but I'd love to keep using the kernel for the battery life / performance etc...

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Maxamillion:
Is there any way to increase the power amp gain for the 6p like there was for the nexus 5?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] jesssiii:
I'm thinking if you set the gestures with aroma on install of the kernel, they would still work after unrooting. Am I wrong, [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]?

iPhone 6S Plus
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
Yes, you get all the benefits, but no settings will work for special features like Wake Gestures, sound, color, etc.

Maybe, but I don't think it's worthwhile.

Without root, you can't change the settings.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] tcat007:
V4a does wonders.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mehdi_s82:
I light of the recent issues with Android Pay and rooting, would you add more settings(e.g. Color profiles) to Aroma installer? It could allow not rooted users to enjoy your Kernel feature even more!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Maxamillion:
Any recommended settings?

The lower voltage is causing my earphones to clip at close to max volume, I think.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] elreydenj:
Great idea if possible...
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
I don't want the installer to become really heavy

If you want to use Android pay, then just disable su when you're out shopping.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] 4redstars:
I'm considering disabling su when I'm out just to keep using the app, etc. Saw someone stating to try tasker. Might try it.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] dukat0s:
back in nexus since nexus 5 days ( i own a 6p 32gb version too but i dont try kernels-roms for a few weeks) after testin a few others outside i can honestly say your kernel compare to others is simple amazing ! :) all this tweaks about battery-perfomance and this awesome colour profile :) keep it up =) [IMG="1"]https://scontent.fath3-2.fna.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpt1/v/t34.0-12/12674668_732375223565210_1184549627_n.jpg?oh=68dfc32ff4f601d6619097a1226136e4&oe=56B10FEE[/IMG]
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] chris9000:
Any restrictions on which roms this kernel is compatible with?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Not as far as I am aware.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Shockz:
As long as the ROM doesn't use a custom kernel then you can flash EX.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] chris9000:
Any chance whether it'll work with cataclysm? Reason I ask is my phone's been stuck in the green hexagon/circle bootloop since I tried flashing both.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
That sounds like Chroma and it should. No idea why it wouldn't be booting up, you may want to try reflashing.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Mansour Nejer:
I am currently using Purenexus rom..Just flashed Elemenalx over Franco's latest v.8..its so far smooth like butter & without any issues :p :good:
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] chris9000:
I must be doing something wrong. Rebooted it and now it's just showing the Google logo......
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
Elementalx works with every ROM as far as I know, even if it uses a custom kernel (as many do)

This is what I warn about. You should dirty flash pure nexus and then flash elementalx.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Chord_Hugo87:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] could you make it so we can turn off one little core and one big core? I'm curious of how that compare to just turning off core 6 and 7
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Kerttuurius:
Elementalx kernel with working viper4android?

When i install Elementalx kernel with my Nexus 6p cyanogenmod13 everything else work vety good but my viper4android not work anymore.I tryed install again viper4android and driver say install but adnormal mode.

Sorry my bad english.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] xflowy:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]. is elementalx gov up to date now? im asking cause you mentioned earlier, that it was still not optimized for our angler.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Shockz:
Oh my bad, I have always followed that warning in the aroma to not install on a custom kernel lol.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] ratson:
guys, is it safe to disable thermal control?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] 1112ee:
Is there a way to quickly toggle SElinux modes for elementalx? I tried this but it doesn't seem to work
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Balino:
How is the stock marshmallow battery saving mode supposed to work?

It doesn't lower the CPU/GPU clocks even after powering the screen off.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] tcat007:
Reflash it and change the toggle. Or do mean something faster than 1-2 minutes?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] 1112ee:
Ideally faster
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
No, that is controlled by a number of system things, and I don't want to mess with it. It won't make any difference to battery.

It's always been fine to use, I just haven't found it any better than interactive. I tried a few different settings and they didn't make much difference. Interactive works great, so I'm not going to mess with a good thing.

I wouldn't recommend it.

You can disable it for testing, but I wouldn't leave it disabled all the time.

No, sorry. I changed it to a command line setting and it is not changeable after boot. I'm probably going to reverse this on the next release.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] 1112ee:
Where do I change thermal settings?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
You would have to edit /system/etc/thermal-engine.conf while in recovery
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] 1112ee:
does reflashing the kernel return that to stock? I've tried some of the different governor tweaks and some of the scripts said they changed thermal limits
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
I think some of the scripts adjust these:

echo 0 > /sys/module/msm_thermal/core_control/enabled

echo Y > /sys/module/msm_thermal/parameters/enabled

I'm not exactly sure of the overall effect of using these settings, as I haven't looked at how the thermal engine works in detail. There is both a userspace thermal-engine and driver in the kernel, they work together.

These would revert to default if you stop using the script. Also note that EXKM doesn't alter these values even if they are contained in the profile.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] troymz1:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] is there a way to change to performance mode with a tasker command? For when I launch certain apps?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:

February Android 6.0.1 Security Update is Ready, Factory Images Posted:

MMB29Q

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

Details on this month’s security bulletin have been posted here:

http://source.android.com/security/bulletin/2016-02-01.html
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Ensifolk:
Hi Folks :) Anyone would like to share with me his personal experience with EX regarding which rom you guys are using ? I mean which ROM you guys prefer to run with EX for example ? Im trying to optimize my Battery Life. I personally use Stock+Xposed+EX Kernel. Would love to see others' experience with EX whilst using other roms. Many thanks !
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] aidan8181:
Hey love the kernel really appreciate the time and effort you have put into it, really love the features and the EX manager app. I have been having some issues with the lock screen and I have searched the forum to try and find a solution, but to no avail. I was wondering if you any one has any idea how I would go about troubleshooting the issue. I'm running the chroma rom but since I installed the ElementalX kernel on this rom my lock screen has not been going to sleep automatically, this wouldn't be a problem if I didn't keep my phone in my pocket as I could just press the power button, or use the awesome double tap to sleep on lock screen feature, but when my phone wakes up in my pocket the battery begins to drain as the screen stays on. I have timed how long it takes for the screen to go back off again and its 15 minutes which is weird because I have it set to auto lock in 30 minutes in the settings. I was not having this issue on the stock kernel and it only started happening after I installed the kernel. Anyway anyone that can help me out would be great, and thanks again OP for your great work.

edit: Just timed it again and it took 30 mins for the screen to sleep on the lock screen.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] adrman:
ElX 1.05 working fine with MMB29Q.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] steveo17:
Awesome! Which parts of the update did you flash?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] jerflash:
Only ones you need to flash in this update are system/vendor/boot, then go back into twrp and reflash elementalx. Everything else is the same
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Shockz:
I flash everything other than userdata and recovery
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
The kernel doesn't affect lockscreen timeout, it has nothing to do with it.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] adrman:
Bootloader and radio are still the same. I flashed boot, recovery, system & vendor, formatted cache, then booted twrp and flashed ElX plus phusson's superuser.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] aidan8181:
Oh ok sorry I will look into it myself see what is causing the problem. Anyway keep up the good work and thanks for the fast reply.

Edit: I'm very sorry I found a solution to my problem it was a setting I had changed in an app.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] sayboon:
Mate, how do you get such crazy scores? Mind sharing your config? [MENTION=5058936]dukat0s[/MENTION]
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] hardstyle86:
Hi.

I tried this kernel paired to the 29.01 PureNexus ROM.

I found that the DT2W is better than that included in the ROM, but I have to re-activate it at every reboot.

Is it normal? I have root, of course.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] biglo:
Hello, with this kernel and manager do you allow editing of the thermal file? For example to throttle the device at a specific temperature to prevent the device from getting too warm?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
Not yet.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] biglo:
OK so that sounds like something that may be in the works for the future, yes?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] treytoro710:
Hi [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]. Will a Fast Charge (faster than stock) feature be added to this Kernel?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] tracerit:
looking forward to this too. Call Volume is very low on this phone. Would be Nice to have higher volume (if it's possible to do safely). I have the Left and Right volumes at 23/26 (L/R) (I think [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] said any higher would be dangerous) and I can't say for sure I can notice the difference in call. Seems like it's just for media volume.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] tu3218:
What is the sweep2wake feature? Starting to think about flashing a new kernel.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Az Biker:
Gesture to wake phone, swipe up instead of tapping. Very convenient.

How to get Vomer tweaks?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Quetzalcoalt_Lp:
If I already have installed Pure Nexus rom, how should I flash this kernel? flashing boot.img from stock google rom and then this kernel?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
No, just flash EX over the default PureNexus kernel. Boot into TWRP, flash the zip and reboot. No wipes, no extra stuff.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] steveo17:
i'd really like to know how to get my active battery drain less than 20%...ever. i have Vomertweaks, greenify, and amplify, yet my active drain still remains insanely high compared to everyone else
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] wietse1988:
Which rom are you on? Try a clean install, and setup everything with elemental kernel. And don't use vomer tweaks, greenify, amplify. And see what results you get. My active drain is about 15% and idle drain below 1% and I don't use any tweaks. I just make sure my apps are setup right. Try it, and see if you get good results without all the tweaking.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] lobrau:
Yeah I never see drain like others either I get 18% drain screen on. And about 2-2.5% with it off. That's with doing everything I can to minimize wakelocks etc. Just trying vomertweaks to see if it improves.

I live in the same city as flar2 and am on one of the largest carriers (rogers). So if we had the same apps installed we should see at least similar drain but we don't. I assume my day is kinda similiar as well being downtown for the main part of day. I've used bbs to eliminate as much wakelocks as I can. I assume it's that I use a bit higher brightness compared to him. No idea what to do now to make it better but doesn't really matter since I make it through a day.

Figured I'd also add that I don't play games and my phones use is basically Reddit, web browsing, and messaging mainly.

4th full charge using Vomertweaks with EX default.

---------- Post added at 08:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 AM ----------

Have you tried Better Battery Stats to see if any apps are sucking battery in the background, and CPU Spy to see of you're device is hitting deep sleep?

...from my NexsixP
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] lobrau:
Yep, highest app use is Reddit sync and second is browser so none that I'm not using are sucking it in the background. I'll check clu spy to see if anything comes up. Deep sleep may be an , typically I'll see it say deep sleep at a 2:1 ratio of awake(screen off)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Az Biker:
I corrected a typo, it's CPU Spy.

My display is at about 60%, running a few

Dark themes (cmte), snyc is set to manual.

I Greenify everything but weather app, performance monitor, sms app, SwiftKey, basically everything that isn't necessary to always be active all the time.

Vomertweaks set on Dynamic Mode.

What's your setup?

...from my NexsixP
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] lobrau:
Screen about 60% auto but I use auto sync instead of manual and don't use greenify. Probably where the big discrepancy lies. Trying vomertweaks for the first time today though.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Az Biker:
The EX kernel w/ default settings is more than good enough to give me a full day of use.

I'm into the battery life thing purely to see where the limits are with my daily use habits.

I don't run 20% display, don't avoid videos, or games, I'm just curious to see what the best batt life for my use can be, more out of curiosity than need.

...from my NexsixP
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] lobrau:
Yeah that's why I mentioned that it didn't really matter because for my use case I can make it through my day. I also find it interesting to see what the limits are for me but I don't really want to sacrifice performance for battery since it doesn't give me any benefit to do that. That being said I'll do battery saver things if it doesn't impact my use.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] tjohnstone3:
Just wanted to bump this for [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]. I'm still seeing this wakelock after removing the phone from charger. Any thoughts on what could be causing this? Would it be kernel related?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] kaokien:
Is vomer tweaks simply modifications to governor? Basically sonicrons tweaks but better tested? Or is there more that it affects?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
As far as teh kernel goes, everything about charging is 100% exactly the same as stock
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] steveo17:
i'm on stock Rom. February update now.

Usually my biggest battery drain is Chrome (or whatever web browser i am using) i am pretty sure its the mobile active radio bug that is killing my battery.

would a factory reset fix the mobile active radio bug?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] syintiphic:
I've read great things about this kernel. I just installed it and bought the EX Kernel Manager. I'm going to give it a go for a few days. Thanks [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] .
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] grayskul:
Where can vomertweaks be found?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Az Biker:

[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] TheDude:
No, you are from New Jersey...
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] d08speed3:
Sorry if this is the wrong thread but in your EX Manager app the color settings that I set sometimes just undo itself. I have of checked for set on boot and everything. Its so weird.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] wietse1988:
You could try a factory reset. Or flash the stock factory image, if you flash the stock image, you are sure everything is installed correctly, then flash recovery and install supersu and elementalx. See if this fixes it for you. Make sure you backup you photos data before doing this.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mannyalba:
This is just ridiculous, running DU + this kernel, never been able to cross the 92k mark, what is this?

Not sure what this means -___-
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Badger50:
It's a number on a screen. And that's about it! Sammy devices get great scores too, but not very smooth if you ask me. My wife's note 5 not near as fluid as my 6p. And it always benchmarks better than mine.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mannyalba:
Yea but I still believe there's some logic there, some good and true examples we know already, iPhone 6s for instance beating the crap out of every other android on real life which reflects on the score too...
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Gorgtech:
Samsung uses some "tricks" when it detects benchmarks, nothing new these days. Apple´s iOS is based on C while Android uses Java. It´s like comparing a Windows 2000 machine with a new Windows 10 operating system which requires more hardware resources. From a point of usability, iOS is a "primitive" OS but I guess this is not a topic which should be extended here ;)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Acaki:
Quick question:

What's the differences between Touchboost and Input boost in the CPU Boost section?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
Touchboost is a userspace daemon called perfd, which boosts the min cpu frequencies for about 1.5 seconds when you touch the screen.

CPU-boost is a kernel driver that boosts the frequency when you touch the screen, it's set for a short burst and has lower latency.

Touchboost can be turned off completely and doesn't have much impact, but I wouldn't recommend turning off input boost completely. If you disable touchboost, you might want to increase the duration of input boost.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] DanRyb:
This may be a really silly question but I'm trying to do away with needing root now with this whole Android Pay thing. Question: Is there any ability to set the color profile values outside of the app, whether a file on the system or a script that runs at bootup? I leave most values alone that are set when installing. The only thing I use the app for is to set the color values. If I can do that without needing root I would be all set! Thanks for any help!

EDIT: Removed quote. Sorry did not mean to quote you!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Badger50:
Which is why I leave your kernel on stock settings after testing out all the other profile scripts. It's perfectly great straight out of the box!! :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] tech_head:
Yes

What's primitive about iOS?

Android is Linux under the hood.

iOS is stripped MacOS under the hood, which is UNIX BSD.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] tu3218:
So just flash this in twrp? All the options, is it a one time decision in the aroma installer or can I modify it later on? Also what's the go to app now a days to control all things kernel. Used to use setcpu way back.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
You can modify later on from within a kernel control app or you can reflash and repick in Aroma. Kernel Adiutor is sort of the de facto app now but I highly recommend picking up the EX Kernel Manager (linked in my signature) as it is a well designed app, constantly updated, supports [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION], and most compatible with the kernel (and others as well).
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Badger50:
You can flash it anytime you want to make changes. Then when your done, use the developers app out of consideration for his hard work :)

Any idea about getting rid of this wakeup?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Soulfly3:
Hey, [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] great kerne as ALWAYS.

One question/suggestion... I find the swipe2sleep is almost slightly "finicky"... meaning I have to slide 2-3 times sometimes... When I was on cataclysm and used that function it seemed much "smoother"

is there a way to make it slightly more sensitive, or is it just my mind playing tricks on me? Not at all a criticism, just think slight more sensitivity would be real nice

Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Usually rebooting fixes a Play Services wakelock (at least in my case).
