128, it's the stock value.

Ah I forgot to add them, I'll recompile in a sec, thanks for the heads up.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Root Wizard:
Damn the day I use that as my readahead value, probably will never exist. No problem though, just accidentally tested that when I flashed it with my cache at f2fs and it didn't boot.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
That's why it is customizable haha. Zip is reuploaded in the original post.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Neejay:
I think I read somewhere that the readahead is more important on devices with physical sdcards, not internal storage like ours. I want to say Francisco.Franco said it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nathanchance:
Yeah I'm sure Franco has said that in the past lol. Readahead is more important for physically spinning disks as well, we have a solid state so it doesn't really make much of a difference have a higher readahead. I personally set it to 1024 but that may not be optimal.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
Optimal read-ahead for Shamu is actually 2048 iirc :confused: I personally find 1536 to be the sweet spot.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rignfool:
I would have to disagree...

At 128 your read ahead does not waste battery

EDIT: [MENTION=6842057]The Flash[/MENTION]

Mako hotplug is not in your kernel...

/sys/devices/virtual/misc/mako_hotplug_control

Does not exist in kernel
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
I don't personally use 2048 - its simply considered optimal for Shamu.

"I/O Read Ahead Buffer is?*dependent on the size?*of your flash storage (internal/external) unlike I/O schedulers. Below is the recommended settings for the given size that will yield the best performance (differs between setups).?*

[Nexus 6 Android Development] rignfool:
Those numbers are for benchmarks...

Not for real world usage

There was a blog from a Google engineer... Talking about read ahead and if the number was too high is reads ahead into places you aren't using on the disk... Wasting battery...

There was a G+ post about it from Franco and imoseyon...

And a commit... In marshmallow... Iirc

Is this kernel SElinux permissive or enforcing? I have been looking for hours at how to check and I have no idea. My Android Pay all of a sudden has quit working and I am furious that I am not rooted but using a custom kernel yet that breaks it?? I am baffled. WTF is with GOOGLE.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] :
Enforcing by default. Can be toggled.

Very possible. They may have a check in place against any number of things.

If you want to use things like Android Pay that google uses the Safety Net Checks for... Don't plan on customizing.

IF you plan on doing both. Expect headaches.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingdave82:
Hi,

I am experiencing something very weird with my G4. Started this morning once I got into work.

I woke up, read my messages and then locked the phone while I went to get dressed. Put the phone in my pocket then left for work. When I arrived at work the phone would not unlock. I repeatedly put my unlock code into the keypad and every time it told me it was incorrect.

I hadn't changed the code, and I know what I am putting in is definitely correct, but I still can't unlock my phone to use it.

What can I do!?

Thanks
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingdave82:
In addition, I have gone to the Android Device Manager web page and locked my phone from there with a password in the hope I could recover it that way. While my home screen now says it is locked by ADM, it won't let me enter any passwords - there is a pad lock icon on the screen, but thats all and nothing responds to me pressing the screen.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steadfasterX:
Sorry for asking the obvious : do you have tried to reboot? It sounds like the gatekeeper service is crashed which should be fixable by just reboot.

If you tried that already:

Do you had enabled USB debugging? If so you can delete the gatekeeper files and after a reboot it will be unlocked.

Or

Is your bootloader unlocked and do you have twrp installed? then you can do the same in twrp.

EDIT

Here are the details if adb or twrp is in place:

Wow. If this is real, Sprint could become the first in US to release the 7.0 update.

[IMG="sprint s7 Nougat"]http://www.theandroidsoul.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/sprint-galaxy-s7-Nougat-testing.jpg[/IMG]

-- SOURCE

The info given at source (link above) looks quite valid:

- No CM14/AOSP 7.0 ROM availabel for G930P, so it must be official firmware in use here.

- RAM is down, and so are the benchmark scores, so this is a test build, not a fake 6.0 one.

What do you guys think?

Recently I changed from Pbar to WkTask as my program manager/launcher. In Pbar you could easily enable/disable Wifi/BT by clicking a built in icon. With Wktask that is not the case. Does anyone know what the name and location is for the program that enables/disables wifi? I would like to add it to my launch menu within Wktask and not use the Comm Manager as I feel it is slow and bulky.

Looks like Sprint will be releasing the Nougat update first of all in US. In fact, they have released the Marshmallow before everybody else too (maybe before global variant too, not sure).

Here's why this looks genuine:

- No CM14/AOSP 7.0 ROM availabel for G930P, so it must be official firmware in use here.

- RAM is down, and so are the benchmark scores, so this is a test build, not a fake 6.0 one.

Credit to post 161!

Ah, its easy enough to do with ADB LOGCAT.

Here is a quick guide on how to set it up. Root isnt required for it, just USB debugging enabled through the developer menu. There are ways of spoofing the device requesting the download that will allow the zip file to download with just the link alone. I think right now, no one has the link available to test and try. But its really simple to setup a device with the correct ID to bypass the download restriction.

http://www.androidsage.com/2016/01/2...ndroid-device/

All we need is a link and the rest should be easy enough. Also, if you can get the file on the phone prior to installing it as [MENTION=4304370]jds3118[/MENTION] mentioned, it would probably make it even easier.

Either way, we can make it work.

Sos.

0. install adb

1. flash (in AP slot) the tar for engineering kernel http://d-h.st/kDWz and use this odin http://d-h.st/gsDA

2. enable adb in the developer option.

3. you should be rooted. you should have # instead of $ prompt by adb shell

4. when you confirm you are rooted.

5. type 'exit' to exit out of the adb shell prompt

5. adb pull /data/fota/update.zip update.zip

7. to go back stock kernel, just flash only AP tar in AP slot. AP means application processor resources such as kernel ,android and drivers

hope that helps!
