Fair enough to assume we should reflash SuperSU 2.61 after the flash of a zip?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] trlash:
Thanks Franco your kernels are to notch. Flashed thanks for your work!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Dbj.Dhaval:
Yes will traditional root not work with this Kernel
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Because for 2.52 to work it needs a different sepolicy bin, and I can't use the old 6.0 binary from CF's initial Nexuses pre-rooted boot.img. And because system-less SuperSu is the future and it will let you flash OTAs on your device without wiping or extra cleaning.

Yes.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
You're ****ing welcome :cool:
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Neverendingxsin:
Thanks for the quick response. Where can I find information on how to go from system to systemless root, can't seem to find it on XDA (or i'm completely missing something).
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] wvcadle:
Franco kernels

This is the best development (pun intended) of the day! Thanks Franco!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] d1ez3:
Has anyone noticed a difference in Bluetooth sound quality on this kernel or 6.0.1 in general? Maybe it's just in my head, but the sound quality with viper4android feels more "clogged" not getting nice deep bass. I noticed they merged volume on Bluetooth on 6.0.1 so it's one control for all BT sound. Maybe something else changed as well
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] dirtyreturn:
Do you have a link to that unsu.zip?

Edit. Found it
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] rebretz000:
Thank you Franco.

First cycle still. But damn. Thanks
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] flar2:
Is that my app? The time-in-state stats for CPU4 seem to get reset when the phone goes to deep sleep, so you won't see much usage. That means the second cluster is going offline during suspend. I don't think it was doing that before the 6.0.1 update, but I'm not sure.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] semajm85:
how are you guys changing the color profile of the screen? i purchased franco's kernel app from playstore but fkupdater isn't updated yet for that option.

i could use kernel auditor but i'm afraid it'll mess with franco's app
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Not a single change about that on my end.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] AndyYan:
Just saying but even on past devices Franco often refuses to support CM, so I'm (not) surprised to see it's the same case on the N6P. I don't expect to see support anytime soon either - maybe someone will build a Franco "Plus" based on Franco's work, just like what happened to the N4.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I never refused to support CM. Sometimes their changes are incompatible with stock rom, which breaks my philosophy, which is 100% priority for stock. And sometimes they make too many changes on the ramdisk and too often, and I just can't keep up or can't be arsed to.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] AndyYan:
Yeah by "refuse" I mean just that.

I hate CAF back in the N4 days as well, but CM is something I have to live with, and weighing the losses on a user's scale I have to give up on Franco. If one day I could join the league again I'd happily do so, because I still trust your kernel more :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Hey guys, Pure Nexus just got updated and I wanted to post this in case people are having issues with getting this kernel installed, hope it is not too intrusive. These steps should work for any pre-rooted 6.0.1 ROM:

1. Dirty flash Pure Nexus (or other ROM) if you are on a custom kernel.

2. Flash UnSU (to remove SuperSU from the system partition).

3. Flash Franco Kernel.

4. Flash SuperSU 2.61.

5. Reboot and profit.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] duminduweera:
Is forced encryption enabled on this?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] omvir:
Will you start your own threads for these builds. Or just post in here?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] mgear356:
yes bro, its your app.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Nope.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Vangelis13:
You on reversed Dracula hours mode again..? ?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] exSD:
How are people modifying kernel parameters without busybox?

I have SuperSU installed but Kernel Auidtor wants busybox.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
I would assume the FKUpdater app. If you want to use Kernel Adiutor, you can install Busybox in /su/bin, works perfectly with SuperSU 2.61 and systemless root.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] exSD:
Hmm. Using the busybox installer app from the Play Store when I type into install to /su/bin it says the path is not valid. Using ES File Explorer I do see that it is a valid path. ES File Explorer won't work with root though as it says it is not available. Odd.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Yeah I bought the Pro version and it worked just fine. I heard the free version had issues. Flar2 made a brief guide if the free version doesn't work and you don't want to use the Pro version.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] GeneralRam:
2% battery used another 2 hours later, no freezes or lag either.

I hope you didn't take offence to my original either post Franco - your kernel on the Nexus 4 was a lifesaver. You'd expect something as high profile as Outlook (Which I use for my work e-mail) to be immaculate!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
I don't take any offense. The only thing that bothers me on these boards is when users don't read and expect me to be a Tech Support Office, so you're fine. Enjoy!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] arunkr:
Hey guys, getting pissed off with my phone now, was running PN+ Franco earlier, tried PN kernel and ex kernel also, lot of instances of hesitancy in opening apps, fingerprint sensor getting slow, phone is in woken up stage in battery settings while charging, etc etc, wanted to go to stock + Franco, while trying to flash system.img, but getting error saying that it can't be loaded, can't allocate.. Can anyone gimme a solution for this?.. Also if I flash all , bat file, will the bootloader get locked??..
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Franzie3:
I know imoseyon had this configured to enable/disable it. I liked the subtle vibration when doing it. Maybe his configs can be used if you want. Either way im sure it'll be fine.

You might be sitting on a gold mine if you start a Tech Support Office :silly:
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] resynx:
Glad to hear that that's in consideration. It would be so useful to have vibration feedback on the double tap :D
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] binaryfalcon:
Does your double tap even work properly? Sometimes it doesn't even work for me (double tapping the middle of screen) and sometimes there's a horrendous delay before the screen actually lights up. Code is broken
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Welcome to Google's double tap to wake implementation, which is more like triple or quadruple tap to wake. Not so much broken as not coded/implemented well.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Franzie3:
works flawlessly for me. 1st time every time even if the phone is in doze...
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] resynx:
Yeah Google's implementation is very hit or miss for me just like you've stated. That's why I'd like the vibrate to confirm so I'm not just staring at the screen hoping it's about to turn on haha.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] guta12:
when i like update to the new build of this kernel and new build or super su systemless, and i used the mod cataclysm

what are the steps that i follow

install again cataclysm after franco kernel and after super su? or install the new kernel and after super su?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] venelar:
If you are on cata flash franco, flash supersu, then reboot

This all changes after R8 comes out
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Toutatis_:
If you want to update franco kernel, assuming you're running Cataclysm:

1. Flash franco kernel

2. Flash SuperSU (with upcoming r8 you won't have to)

3. Reboot

If you simply want to update your SuperSU (like moving from 2.66 to 2.67):

1. Flash SuperSU

2. Reboot
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] binaryfalcon:
Not implemented well = broken xD

doesn't elementalx use it's own code? Google's code is horrible compared to that

at this point it's just easier to lift the phone up from the table and use the fingerprint scanner
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
The bootloader won't be locked.

I'll check his code.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] nathanchance:
Lol I guess, semantics and whatnot.

Yeah flar2 has designed his own gestures driver. I use sweep to wake and it rarely misses (usually me not swiping correctly). They won't be coming here though since Franco has said he won't use them (golden rule).
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] binaryfalcon:
the golden rule is ducking sad. does both flar2 gesture driver have no battery drain as well? (read that the Google one does not drain battery)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Sad or not, it's not going to change sorry!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] arunkr:
Any idea why I'm not able to flash the system. Img through fastboot, while flashing the boot.img went without any hiccups
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Franzie3:
it's probably an older version of fastboot.exe. get a more recent copy of it with a more recent date. That is if the error you are getting is saying somethign along the lines of it being a size related issue
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Update your android-tools.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] jackie_jagger:
I got naptime last night, enabled aggressive dose and holy crap - this thing sleeps like a baby. I'm down to 73% battery (3h 47 since unplugged) 31mins of SOT.

However, I'm seeing Android OS keeping the phone awake for 41mins and CPU total of 36mins. BBS is pointing to bluesleep and PowerManagerService.WakeLocks - not seeing anything major in Partial Wakelocks.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Yes bluesleep can **** you but thats the price to pay for being connected to BT.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Franzie3:
if you have android wear....this is the price we pay for now. hopefully future android OS updates along with android wear updates will have better Bluetooth battery management. still a very small sacrifice. I used to find myself using my phone constantly without my watch. Just picking up to check a notification would lead me to maybe opening an app or playing a game or something stupid. I must say the watch is a nice companion and while my battery might be draining on the phone, im not using it as much and leaving work with slightly higher battery then when i did before having a watch.

also be happy you dont have NlpCollectorWakelocks like i do. that SOB kills. been keeping my phone awake 5 hours and it started once i turned off wifi since i wasnt home.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] jackie_jagger:
That explains that..I have my Android wear connected but what is surprising me is that I never had this wakelock in the December security update while with the January update it's like a little b*tch that won't calm down.

I wonder if I should ride it till the next 2 weeks for the Feb patch and hope things get better or try to revert back to December. I hope I go to sleep tonight and wake up to a morning where Google has their **** together and wakelocks are tamed, hangouts is fixed and the lags that appear after having the device on for few days are gone. It may be placebo but I remember how stable Android was pre lollipop but that was years and years of tuning. Hopefully the next version will be the next "Kitkat".

This whole thing reminds me of the Windows Me, XP fiasco ..
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Robi959:
I'm now on elementalx kernel, if I want to flash this kernel, is there something to do before flashing or just download and flash directly?

Poslano sa mog Nexus 6P koristeći Tapatalk
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] motoridersd:
For me it's intermittent. I have a Moto 360, and sometimes it will doze wonderfully for a few hours, but then it will stay awake until I reboot or turn bluetooth off. There ARE some known apps that will keep the phone awake due to a bug in Bluetooth (GasBuddy and Weatherbug come to mind as the ones most people have issues with, even though they have no need for bluetooth).

All in all, with Franco's Kernel, even with bluesleep eating up my battery, I can get through a full day on a single charge more often than before.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] jackie_jagger:
Yea well that's the thing. It's kept my phone awake for 1 hour 7 mins as of now while total time since unplugged is 5hours 44mins . So I guess you can call it intermittent. I have none of those apps installed so I am thinking, it's probably android wear. I'll try recycling Bluetooth on/off and see if that helps.

I could go through about 24+ hours with Franco's kernel and 3-3.5 hours of SOT. However, it doesn't seem like I can do that anymore thanks to Bluesleep. Battery stats say it'll be dead by 8PM - effectively being 12 hours on battery.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Franzie3:
Somethign else has to be going on then. Even with my Huawei Watch i still get all day life and 3.5+ SOT, Check your other wakelocks and such.

This kernel only works with systemless root. Instructions are in OP. I also advise deleting any kernel app settings before flashing and switching to a new kernel
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] jackie_jagger:
I don't see anything else standing out here, WLD stopped working this morning because I installed it as a system app so can't check what specifics.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Franzie3:
What about alarms
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] jackie_jagger:
Yikes, I just rebooted to fix WLD. Lost the stats..dammit. brb while I run head first into the wall.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Devhux:
BBS shows my phone is awake for 10% of my screen off time. Main thing I saw was this under Alarms.

Anything I can/should do to minimize this?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Franzie3:
Yea I got money on you having a wakelock issue. I hate to clutter the thread with this so PM me if you resolve the wakelock detector issue and give it some time then screenshot and send me what those results are and just tap on the bigger culprits and it'll tell you specifically each wakelock chewing up
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] jackie_jagger:
I assume that's a misquote and that was for me? Yea I'm going to run it for a few hours (solved the WLD issue) and PM the screenies. Thanks a lot for helping.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Was just looking if it's possible to block Nlp wakelocks from the Kernel, but it isn't. Those userspace triggered locks are all inside PowerManagerService.WakeLocks which for the Kernel is just one wakelock (all userspace wakelocks count towards the same counters). The only way to prevent this entirely was to prevent any userspace wakelock to be acquired and it would break a lot of apps that need to wakeup the device (such as music players).
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Ofthecats:
Perhaps a new app that uses system less root, but not xposed, to control wakelocks?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
What?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] :
r7 and Pure Nexus be the ****!!!! My gal ran that setup for 2 weeks and she's talked so highly of it I had to give it a go and she was right. My battery has some extremely slow drainage while using my phone and I have tweaked a few things in FKU for speed and its still sllllooowwwlyyyy draining.. Guess I'll hang for a while. Looking forward to r8.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] sacredsoul:
I use Amplify to control Wakelocks and Alarms. Works perfect.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Franzie3:
That requires xposed to work
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Ofthecats:
Is an app like amplify possible without xposed?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] azsl1326:
No, you need xposed to use Amplify.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
You're bloody welcome. Say hi to gal for me for being awesome and introduce you to FK.

No, it's impossible.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
Ok I added vibration when the device is double tapped to wake. It was pretty un-intrusive so it was fine.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Rocio19:
Nice!!! You're f***ing awesome! :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] resynx:
I'm ducking thankful :D
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] revolt1:
did you update?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] revolt1:
I saw you said you updated vibration on the kernel. I thought updated my bad
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] arunkr:
Phone is showing as awake during charging, clean flashed deodexed stock ROM, still having that issue, also will settings from previous flash be carried forward even after full wipe (except internal storage)?.. Coz even after a clean flash I had layers applied when setting up my device from scratch...
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] blueren:
None of the problems stated by you so far have anything to do with Franco kernel. You might wanna move it to the respective ROM's q&a section before you get called out.

Having said that, phone being "awake" while charging is correct. As far as the layers aspect of concerned, either you didn't wipe entirely (system, dalvic, data, cache) , or whatever rom you're using has layers pre installed. What's your end goal?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Phazmos:
What this is doing in a kernel thread is the real question.

As that was already said - your layers trouble has been covered over and over and over again.

No settings remain after a proper clean flash.

A proper clean flash does not wipe vendor partition.

Vendor partition is where layers are be found.

You can search on your own for more info.

I'm done here.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
The device is always awake when charging.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] TheDude:
Don't play dumb. ;)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] arunkr:
I posted here because I'm running Franco r7, and another is, this is an active thread, so thought I'll get a solution quickly, I don't have trouble with layers, just telling that it dint change after a clean flash, just giving more info for troubleshooting..u mentioned that layers is in the vendor partition, thanks for clarifying.. I Should've mentioned that I'm running Franco in the first post..:)..
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
A little weekend treat: http://kernels.franco-lnx.net/Nexus6P/6.0/anyKernel/fk-r8-anykernel2.zip

You can flash that on top of any rom and it'll work :) I strongly suggest that, if you're using a custom rom, you "dirty flash" your rom package so that you get back the default boot.img and then flash this zip on top of it. If you're on stock I wouldn't worry, but if you want a pristine installation flash stock boot.img from the nexus images and then flash this zip.

Anyway, FKUpdater will be out sometime Monday/Tuesday supporting auto-flash of this new flashing method, so I'll hold off an official release of r8 until then, but you can go ahead and play with it, has lots of small changes (I won't bother you with the details). Enjoy and let me know how it works for you.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Ramchalam:
Back to #praiseFranco. The new r8 working like a champ. Did a dirty flash. No flashing super su after either. Theres no change log per se.. So dunno the changes. But it's working smooth as silk. Will update on the battery once I complete a full charge. Thanks again for this wonderful kernel of yours
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] guta12:
It possible install The New build of The kernel without a dirty flash?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] EarlZ:
I tried the R8 posted on the link but it seems r7 persists??
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Chochiwpg:
Thanks for the update, much appreciated, will give it a go. :good:
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] zetsumeikuro:
Thanks for the 6500k! I'm just wondering have you possibly done a 7500k profile yet?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] akapu01:
I flashed r8 on top of r7 and no problem at all... Running smoothly...

I just flashed r8 on top of r7... I didn't flash SuperSU afterwards.... The phone is still rooted... Running smoothly...
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] guta12:
So i install The New build of The kernel without after super su?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] matust:
I'm finding multiple cores are offline on r8, it doesn't seem to thermal related. Clean flash on a stock rom

Edit: Reflashed and it seems to be working fine
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] akapu01:
Ya I did like that... and it's working fine...
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] :
Yes.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Devhux:
FKupdater still says r7 but in your System Settings you should see #8.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Remarkable
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] :
How could you not remember a donator? ? ha~ha. I used your kernels 1st on Gnex. I'm kidding about remembering... Its been MaNY moons since then and the donation wasn't much but much appreciated for your work. I flashed r8 a few hours ago and its running nicely. The slow drain with screen on is what sells me on a kernel and this and ak kernel have that going on. ? Finally you go any kernel.. Now you will have even more "thanks." lol. Not that you really need anymore... 100k+ ? I hope you and everyone who reads this has a great weekend. Cheers. ?I think I drank too much coffee..lmbo

Ps: Looking real forward to color profiles. Loved that on previous devices with FK!!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Now that's an appropriate handle!

That just what I had when you mentioned gnex!
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] resynx:
Thanks a bunch for adding in the vibration Franco :)
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] matheus_sc:
Flash r8 in cataclysm rom without dirty flash, everything is fine, thanks for this great kernel, i buy fkupdater in playstore for a little help.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] binaryfalcon:
Flashing over r7 is okay, right? Or flash stock boot.img first?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
The instructions are simple. It's your choice to follow them or not, but then don't complain if things don't go over your way by not following them.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] omvir:
Hi Franco, I just tried the r8 anykernel zip over a fresh install of the latest cm nightly and it just stays on the boot animation and doesn't go anywhere.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] osm0sis:
CM Recovery or TWRP?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] omvir:
Twrp. Should I try CM recovery?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
No, dirty flash your rom then re-download my zip, I just re-uploaded it with a small change in the anyKernel procedure.

http://kernels.franco-lnx.net/Nexus6P/6.0/anyKernel/
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] osm0sis:
Both should work but TWRP is definitely preferred.

Edit: Actually, CM Recovery won't work until Francisco starts signing his zips, so stick to TWRP until he does.
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] bagarwa:
Looks like I'm missing something here. I'm running r7 and FKU tells me that's the latest. This thread's title is still r7. What's r8?
[Nexus 6P Original Android Development] franciscofranco:
