[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
Yeah pretty much stuck with that ROM. I haven't tried any of it myself but there are 3rd party "kids mode" launchers on the play store that do more or less the same as the Nabi kids mode does. It might conflict with the Nabi kids mode though, and you may have to remove it. I would try a third party launcher in parent mode first before I started removing anything. There are users that have removed a lot of the Nabi software so it is possible. I cant find any links right now(searching on my phone isn't as easy as desktop). Try searching for removing Nabi bloat or Nabi kids mode removal or something. The basic idea is you will go through it TWRP deleting apks that you don't need with no kids mode. Of course if you delete the wrongs ones you won't be able to boot again, but if that happens you now have the tools and know how to get it back to stock again.

French language CONFIRMED in Nougat

CONFIRMED: After confirming with a Best Buy store representative, it appears that the language support in Nougat has increased. Update to Android 7.0 Nougat. Then, do the following:

Go to Settings

Select General Management on the left side

Select Language on the right side

Select Add a Language

Select Français > Your preferred dialect. For example, to add Français (France), select Français > France.

Move Français (XXX) to the top, where XXX is the region

You have now completed the steps

This feature is supported on the Galaxy Tab S2 (SM-T71X/T81X) and S3 tablets (SM-T820/T825) (ALL regions except China). Phones may or may not be supported, depending on the carrier and place of purchase.

Can someone attach the compressed logs of kernel boot obtained on a P8000 with a stock kernel and with the visi0nary kernel? You need to be root, on linux it should be enough to execute

[Elephone P8000] Stefan Gündhör:
For those that have double-tap2wake enabled

... and have issues with the screen during phone calls (for example: screen is black, but buttons can still be pressed):

You can either turn off dt2w completely using vTool, or use the attached re-build of the blackscreen-fixer that most of you will know from Eragon ROM.

The attached re-build has been made 1 day ago, as the original app did not support guestekrnl v2.0.1

If you have this app already (the older version), replace it with this version. - On latest Eragon you will have this version automatically.

So, beginning with 2.0.1 and upwards, use the attached version of the app, or the latest Eragon ROM.

You have to start the app at least once and grant it superuser-rights. Then it should work on phone calls automatically.

Note: the re-build of this app has the same filename as the original one, but it is a modified version that supports my latest kernel builds.

In my opinion there is no "best" governor. The results may vary from device to device (and also usage). For the P8000 I tested both and wheatley felt smoother to me. Smartmax also felt very smooth, but it currently does not work properly (causes reboots), which is a hint that it isn't ported correctly and is why I disabled it for the moment and didn't mention it in OP.

Edit: In v2.0.0 intelliactive feels best to me (it is now preset)

[Elephone P8000] Stefan Gündhör:
Well, the next version I'm working on, is already 944 commits ahead of the latest visi0nary's kernel.

Each commit contains one or multiple changes in one or multiple files.

Most of those commits are updates of the linux base (which of course I just had to merge into the kernel and not to code myself) - there are also a couple of useful new features that will hopefully help saving power and improve performance.

I've still a couple things to merge/cherry-pick, then we will see.

Edit: concerning battery you will have to test, if you have this problem with the upcoming version(s) too.

New kernel v2.0.0 is out

v2.0.0

first major release of guestekrnl with over 900 commits ahead of the source of visi0nary's kernel

upgraded linux base from 3.10.65 to 3.10.90 (LTS) - this includes hundreds of improvements over the old linux base

switch from sio I/O scheduler to deadline

update/modify intelliactive CPU governor & switch from wheatley governor to intelliactive

introduce and enable power efficient work queues

reduced log spamming

various performance improvements and hopefully power-saving mechanisms

pocketmod is now disabled, as it breaks doubletap2wake (same as in visi0nary's kernel). Enabling pocketmod through vTool won't do anything

introduce and enable UKSM (Ultra-KSM) along with KSM (Kernel same-page merging)

various arm64 improvements

various defconfig changes

updated build flags

introduce BFQ-v7r8 I/O scheduler (though currently not set as default in favor of deadline)

all the other changes are listed here https://github.com/gueste/android_kernel_elephone_p8000/commits/master

everyone is adviced to upgrade to guestekrnl v2.0.0 and to report on the usage experience - thank you!

I've seeder app active with light profile and everything enabled. After each kernel flash I wipe dalvik and cache in recovery, before initially booting the system with the new kernel.

Edit: Concerning doubletap2wake: after longer sleep I often have to tap multiple times (more than 2) to wake up the phone. This is something I experienced with visi0nary's kernel as well. I guess it might be related to some deep sleep feature or something. But for me it DOES still work, I just have to tap more often in this situation.
[Elephone P8000] boka18:
Flashed it again, and I have frozen 2 apps: BlackScreen and ThePieApplication (idk the name for sure). This apps are in the ERAGON ROM. Maybe the first one was causing some errors? I really don't know. The second i just dont like lol :D .. anyways now i flashed your rom again (deleted cache and dalvik after flashig) and it seems to works good. I have just one thing that I personally dont like: The phone seems more "laggy" now. And by laggy - I dont mean that the games or the apps lag, it is just that when i push the POWER btn sometimes (when in deep sleep i think?) it takes 0.5 seconds to wake up. With the v.1.6.1 that was certainly not the case.

[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
I think it's better to have the drop in between rather than at the end. I am also aware that the discharging behavior slightly changes to good after the third reload. So I think we need more time to have a better picture about the results of your changes. In addition, some users at androidhilfe.de are reporting that the bug has gone w/ your 2.2.0; which also needs further evaluation.

New kernel v2.2.1 is out

v2.2.1

this is not the experimental 2.2.1-SNAPSHOT-kernel some of you tested. This is the final 2.2.1 kernel.

upgraded linux base from 3.10.100 to 3.10.101 - Changelog

use updated sabermod toolchain (aarch64-linux-gnu-5.3-03-06-16)

provide 2 flavors: with or without experimental battery fix (if the battery fix of v2.2.0 does not work for you, or you still get a drop and would prefer the drop to happen at the end of a charging cycle (like on stock kernel), you can just flash the version without the experimental fix)

The kernel is compatible with stock-based ROMs and the latest CyanogenMod ROM

You can find the download where you would expect it: attached to the first posting of this thread. Enjoy!

Please remember: After you flashed the kernel in Recovery, perform the following steps:

go to menu "Wipe and Format Options"

perform "Wipe Dalvik/ART Cache"

perform "Wipe Cache"

Please do not report any problems or bugs, if you did not perform these steps along with the installation of the new kernel.

Same behaviour here:

Previously had a drop from 15% to 0% in very short time.

Not with the batfix kernel it is from 40% to 20%.

Just a feedback, keep up the good work.
[Elephone P8000] Stefan Gündhör:
Thank you two for reporting - yes, this behavior has been confirmed by [MENTION=3784300]BlueFlame4[/MENTION] as well. With the "fix" you will have the drop earlier (most likely 35-40% -> 20%), without it, you will have it from 15% -> 0% (like on stock kernel).

Currently there is no better solution, but you can decide, which way you like it better and then choose the appropriate version of guestekrnl (with or without the "fix").
[Elephone P8000] Stevethegreat:
I actually think that the "fix" is a better solution. It's no fun to think that you have 15% left while -actually- you have none left.

I think a true fix would be to contract the battery meter. What we now call 85% to be the new 100%. That way percentage of battery would fall a bit faster but it would be far more accurate, and IMO that's what matters.

After all you can't lose battery you never had... I think it's a trick employed by Elephone to make users think that their phone has more battery life than it can actually hold...
[Elephone P8000] kivulallo:
but then the software wouldn't decalibrate the battery and it would be weaker? i mean the kernel would block the charger to charge the battery fully because the 85% is the 100% so the battery will get weaker by the time... or am i wrong?
