There is really not much more to wait on a more 'stable' 7.1.1.... do you read a lot of bugs on the most 7.1.1 roms?! I dont and i really dont experience any flaws or bugs in the rom currently... DP2 of 7.1.1 was already pretty stable... the latest is just working flawless.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] jochem86:
I can also confirm... Idle was better around 0.30 but I listened to music via Bluetooth in the car for 30 minutes so it went up :P I am cortex 3.11 rom for ppl who want to know. I was on PN but cortex seems better on idle. BTW I use Leandroid and Naptime.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] juzkimmi:
thanks for taking the time to help. I'll live with it till the next update I guess. because everything else is working perfectly. cheers!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] dephsone:
Did you change anything on kernel side?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fapste:
[MENTION=6842057]The Flash[/MENTION] the Nexus 5 GPU used to idle around 27MHz and i guess it really saves allot of juice. Can we have the Nexus 6p GPU go as low as well?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
It is idle at somewhere around there most of the time already, especially with Adreno Idler, apps like KA and EXKM just don't reflect that.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] fapste:
I'm using KA on my Nexus 5 and it's reflected there for some reason but not on my 6p:confused:

Anyways since you say that it idles around 27Mhz i have got no reason to search more about it anyway

So I'm having an issue getting my car's head unit to recognize my phone using Android auto. It worked fine stock and if i flash over to elemental x it works. But when i try with latest flash kernel it keeps telling me i need to connect a compatible device.

Same cord on all kernels. Have wiped app data, reinstalled, etc. Could a kernel cause this? I'm running stock rooted btw.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Yeah it could, I've had one report before about AA not working but it didn't work back on AK as far as I am aware. I'd need a log to fix it, I don't have any way to test.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] bkrickles01:
Coincidence or what? Just picked up 2017 Honda accord yesterday and it has the built in Android auto and it doesn't recognize my phone either. Running megapixel 7.1.1 with flash kernel. Was driving me crazy yesterday. Let us know if you figure out anything. I guess I'll try stock or elemental kernel to see if that makes a difference. My bt was giving me a problem too but that has to be something else because it worked fine on 2014 accord I traded in. I'll come back with my findings after the weekend. Happy Holidays to everyone

Merry Christmas all :)

I am going to be working quite a lot over the next two weeks in order to try to get enough money to build a PC; as a result, I won't be doing much kernel work (I'll update for the security patch but won't be much outside of that).

Flash these kernel updates and optimizations compel me to upgrade to NOUGAT but I am hesitant due to infamous bootloop issue.

Anyways what do you do for work? If you don't mind me asking. I'm a full stack developer in a 3rd world country :rolleyes:

I work on Android (user space development), MEAN stack and video compression codecs.

Did you change tcp congestion to cdg?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Ah yes forgot to mention that, I've been running CDG for a good month or so now and decided I liked it better than Westwood so I made it default. Can always change it back though.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] leondestiny:
when i flashed Flash v4.1 on Nougat Roms such as Resurrection or Pure Nexus , i would always get a home button bug.

where no matter how often i tap it , it would not respond and not return home.

yesterday i have flashed Dirty Unicorn's latest Official Nougat build and am running on its stock unicornblood kernel and it has been a day and i did not encounter the home button bug (but i also used to always install the exkm app along with Flash v4.1).

i do not say this is your Kernel's fault , but i wish someone could tell me how this happens ?

is there an app that can recognize what it is that makes the home button unresponsive at times? (and one more thing i want to ask, what was the app that can tell that your phone has rebooted -for the random reboots-?)

lastly, i see there is a new version of Flash kernel v4.2, i love this kernel the most.

i will download it later today and try it out, and hope i won't get the home button bug.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] MarcoG::
I have the same with Pure Nexus but with ABC works it fine,i think it is the animated Pixel navbar in PN

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 6P mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 6P Android Development] leondestiny:
thanks man, i also think it is that.

or basically the pixel launchers , no idea really ,but it can be frustrating.

it happens occasionally , so i assume it is not kernel or rom related?

somehow i think that some 7.1.1 builds cause this bug, because i also tried Resurection Remix and it does not come with the animated pixel navbar but the bug still came up eventually.

what is that ABC thing ?

[Nexus 6P Android Development] kantjer:
There was in the early Android Nougat days, but it was caused by a combination of a TWRP bug and users who without having any reason do so were restoring the EFS partition (never a good idea unless you really f*#d up your system)

That TWRP bug was fixed a long time ago, using the latest TWRP and some common sense will work just fine.

On average I flash about one build per day, and unfortunately I need to use restore sometime ;), never had any issues.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] king3opobn:
I heard of that, definitely, but since i never make backups, i use cloud restore. Issue is fixed with official twrp 3.0.3 i believe.

And the twrp issue doesn't apply to clean installs

[Nexus 6P Android Development] kouss77550:
Hi,

The TWRP works great when unencrypted but the only thing is that you cannot format /cache to f2fs, any thoughts on this? Is it intentionnal?

Thanks in advance !
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rakuu:
I don't think /cache would benefit from it.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Appreciate the kind words :) send it to Beans or keep it for yourself haha, I don't take donations.

It's been said that is because cache is too small to format to f2fs. It also doesn't benefit that much for it because cache is not really used outside of OTAs.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kouss77550:
That's weird, even my old galaxy S3 can have it's cache partition formated to f2fs... Anyway, if there isn't any real benefit from it, that's not a big deal I guess !

And btw, thanks for your great work with your kernel, it's running fantastic !

[MENTION=6842057]The Flash[/MENTION], just had another random reboot with 4.2. I've attached the logs in case their useful to you. I'm happy to provide any additional information if you need it. I also know you're busy working for the next few weeks and that I'm apparently the only one having this problem, so I totally understand if you don't investigate.

Happy holidays and good luck with your new PC build! Thanks for all your hard work and friendly help.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Hmmm interesting... do you know what percent battery you were at when this happened? I haven't had a random reboot in probably four months.

To everyone, has anyone else had these issues? I need to try to isolate commits.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] drothenberger:
33% for the last one, but I was probably at around 70% for the one before and I also had one overnight while the phone was plugged in.

Most of my kernel settings are stock. Only thing "weird" is I had msm_thermal enabled and core_control disabled with my thermal threshold increased to 52.

4.0 was fine. These started with 4.1 I think.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] saishiva:
I'm on PN 7.1.1 and just flashed 4.2 today. I had random reboot atleast one a day when I was on 4.1, after updating to 4.2 ... No reboot till now. I did not change anything, just running flash governor. Thanks for your work:o
[Nexus 6P Android Development] i42o:
I thought so, ran vulnerability check and came back with this..

I don't doubt that you fixed it, but why is qrs still reporting it as vulnerable? Take a look, the screen caps where taken Pacific coast time...

[MENTION=2059706]nathanch[/MENTION]ance

I also had random reboots while the phone was laying on the kitchen counter... The phone would boot, dim screen and then reboot shortly after. Thought it was the hot plugging but it wasn't. As soon as I switched out the kernel the issue went away. Aside from that it actually froze twice while playing music and web surfing, but again I had the hot plugging on.

I'm running stock, with flash kernel w/ magisk su and my kernel setting are

Flash governor, > glassfish profile

1708 and 2054 oc msm hot plug

Zram Zswap uksm enabled

2048 RA

Zen scheduler.

I wiped my phone reinstalled digital highs rom, flashed magisk which is sticking and confirmed working, reboots have stopped and battery life is extremely solid. Thank you very much dude.

The app isn't actually checking for the vulnerability; I patched all the vulnerability straight from CAF and I ran the app and it still told me it was vulnerable.

Hmmm did the phone go straight to the Google logo or boot animation?

[Nexus 6P Android Development] danmaman:
Hi [MENTION=6842057]The Flash[/MENTION]

i'm a little bit confused

you say here

CPU:

CPU governor: impulse

CPU governor (Cluster 2): flash

Governor options: DrunkSauce

there are stock governor values?

because if you load drunk_sauce profile on big (that you posted) is interactive on big cluster and not flash governor.....

please can you bring me some clarity in this thing

thanks in advance
[Nexus 6P Android Development] clambert11:
I was looking through Nathan's Memory settings and he said to lighten the LMK default settings. Does anyone have specific values that they'd like to share that seem to be working well? Or is there a certain percentage, say 20% reduction that I can use as a standard? I'm sure it probably doesn't matter that much in the grand scheme of things but I thought I'd ask anyway.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
All the apps to "see if you're vulnerable are trash, this isn't the first time one was questioned in this thread even though it was patched, and likewise other communities as well. You can't trust half the apps that are put on the play store, doing so is silly.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] kantjer:
Flash is a renamed interactive governor so it doesn't matter which one you use

But in the profile posted interactive is used for the big cluster

Call me paranoid, but there are some major bugs e.g. this one on Nougat. I'm happy with MM, and I'll wait. :)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] chrisexv6:
If you read the comments, there are people on MM complaining about the same issue.

It could just be that as batteries get older its becoming more of an issue....they just happened to be come "old enough" around the time Nougat was released.

Oddly enough, my phone random rebooted about 40 minutes ago as my wife attempted to make a call. Battery saver mode was on and the battery was at about 12% (on purpose, Im curious if mine will have this reboot issue from the article you linked). But it rebooted just fine by itself, so Im thinking its more of a kernel/settings/ROM issue.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] moi123:
If I may comment a little on your build - get a Z170 board as you have a 6700k, overclock it as you're on an AIO cooler to extend its "shelf life" considerably. I'm running a i7-3770k since 2012 overclocked to a "mild" 4.4ghz and to date it still runs everything like a champ. I forsee not needing to upgrade for another 2-3 years easily (touch wood, assuming nothing breaks down).No external GPU as you're not into PC gaming? :) Although you've got a very beefy PSU. Everything else looks good.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Thanks for the tip on the motherboard lol. Yeah I will get an external GPU in due time but I will just be booting Linux for the time being so I don't feel like screwing with Nvidia drivers (although I know AMD is an option). PSU may come down but I figured I'd rather leave a fair amount of padding for reasons.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
Amd works out really well with Linux builds for what I've read, and the r9 series have pretty good performance for the price
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rakuu:
Nvidia isn't that bad, I use it here on Arch¯\_(ツ)_/¯ just depend to what extent you can be arsed.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] nathanchance:
Lol Arch is what I would be using. Looking at the wiki, it doesn't appear too bad. But at the same time, it looks like most AMD GPUs have support build right into the kernel so there is less hackery. Will probably hold off on graphics for right now though.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Rakuu:
It depends on use case really. Times have changed, really brand loyalty at this point.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] halkoliiteri:
Is there any changes on newest kernel that could affect on alarm clock? Mine woke me up 5 min late. Some new sleeping settings? Never happened earlier and kernel was only thing that was changed.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] SirLaughsalot:
I don't want to sound like a d-bag, but I highly, HIGHLY recommend holding off on buying a new computer for two BIG reasons:

1. AMD is releasing their new RYZEN CPUs (rumored launch of CES 2017, or, sometime in January). The one they have shown is an 8 core, 16 thread monster that is equal, if not slightly faster than the $1000 Intel 6900k. Keep in mind that the demoed RYZEN cpu had it's turbo boost, or XFR as AMD calls it, turned OFF. So, in practice the 6900k was boosting to ~3.7ghz whereas the RYZEN was locked at 3.4ghz, and still managed to beat it. This XFR feature is also supposed to function as automated over-clocking; dynamically adjusting clock speeds and voltages every few milliseconds, and scales with how well your cooling is (in theory, it will boost the clock speeds HIGHER than the advertised maximum, as if you were to manually overclock the chip. Best example I can think of is Nvidia's GPU boost 3.0 in their Pascal lineup, where the gpu boosts to ~2.0ghz vs. the advertised maximum of ~1.8ghz.) Oh, and did I mention the RYZEN cpu has an official tdp of 95w vs the 140w of the 6900k? Source: AMD New Horizon Event.

2. These performance figures are further solidified by a leaked preview (in print) from a french tech magazine. The author of the leaked preview is the man who wrote CPU-Z, so if this leak is quite credible. In essence, the sampled RYZEN cpu was an engineering sample of the 8c/16t model running at a base of 3.15ghz, and boosting to a max of 3.3 (note that all 8c/16t RYZEN cpus will run a BASE of 3.4ghz at launch, as confirmed in the New Horizon event). This engineering sample, with its lower-than-launch frequencies, was in between the Intel 6-core 6800k and the 8-core 6900k in multi-threaded applications, and on-par with non-overclockable i5s (namely the 3.3ghz i5 6500 I believe) in single threaded workloads (games). The power consumption was also less than the intel 6900k. Sources: TweakTown and WCCFTech

In the end, we will either see a better cpu for the same cost (rumored price of $500 for binned chips (probably chips that will hold the title of 'Black Edition' and will OC better, and $350 for standard 8c-16t chips) or reduced prices from Intel. Heck, why not both?

Sorry for the essay dude. You can follow the links in the second point for a sort of TL;DR.

Any posts PC related trigger my inner nerd :P
[Nexus 6P Android Development] moi123:
You're right - but it looks worse on N, so will continue using MM until a stable 7.1.1 (will we see a Flash ROM coming? hint hint? :) custom ROM is ready. My flashaholic days are over unfortunately...

The built-in Intel GPU is also more than adequate. :)
