The low brightness never seems to work for me. I reflshed my ROM and kernel and still the same as stock. Anyone have any ideas?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
Can you be more specific? What low brightness thing?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] milan187:
Low brightness mode that's part of the kernel? The lowest setting is still the same as stock. Tried enabling it in your app as well but it should be enabled by default.

I'm on Pure Nexus otherwise. Trying to avoid a full wipe to get it.

I just dirty flashes ROM. Booted once. Flashed kernel but no difference in lowest brightness setting from stock.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] trizzv:
Do you mean Backlight Dimmer? It's in the screen section in kernel auditor
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] milan187:
Yes I do. I know where it is but it doesn't work for me.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
Backlight dimmer is simply a different algorithm, it doesn't magically lower the minimum brightness.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] milan187:
Hmm so minimum brightness will be the same as stock on your kernel? I know someone else mentioned it was lower.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] phishfi:
Am I doing something wrong? The changelog never opens for me...
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
That changelog is for the app, which still doesn't have support for that. Best changelog is githubs repository anyway.

Yes its the same.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Koognod:
Tried to flash this kernel however after I did it caused google play services to crash, had to go with elemental instead because I couldn't get franco to flash properly :(
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
I don't see how the Kernel has anything to do with Google Play Services.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Koognod:
You're right, I apologize if it seemed like I was pointing fingers as that's not the case. I was more just trying to get some input on how I might have f'ed up the installation process by someone that might have had similar issues. . I ended up having to flash back stock lineage kernel that came with the rom because the elemental kernel kept causing loop shortly after boot. Needless to say I haven't had much luck flashing a custom kernel on this device.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] joetheshmo:
Sounds like a lineage problem not a device problem
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] qwer777:
Thanks again for all the work you do on this kernel! I just started using it again after seeing the updates recently.

I noticed that the CPU underclock option doesn't seem to do anything, and seems to unapply every time I exit the app. I'm assuming that feature is a work in progress?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] danaff37:
There are many processes (from the factory, not just on custom ROMs) that mess with frequency settings on this phone in an effort to save battery power. I don't really complain, as it seems to work pretty well. It may be the particular CPU governor, but since battery is so great on this device I've never even messed with it.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
I really know know. I'll check if msm_performance Kernel driver is messing with max frequencies somehow.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] kinesics:
I'm having the same issue, luckily battery life is a non issue for me.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] THATTON:
Pure Nexus and r9 has been great for me in terms of battery life!
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] shinesthru:
[MENTION=3292224]franciscofranco[/MENTION] should adaptive brightness be enabled along side your backlight dimmer to work properly?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] LibiSC:
where is the option I can't find it ?

edit: apparently forgot to reflash Franco kernel...all good ?

[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
No. Backlight dimmer will work the same regardless.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
Released r10. Updated verifiedboot patch, updated audio Kernel drivers, disabled dm-verity and merged some upstream patches for the task scheduler

Thanks a bunch!
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] rohitece06:
the battery labs settings dont stick specially 50% low power setting. 25% seems to be set for a bit then goes away.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
You mean the CPU? Yeah, we don't know yet but something is resetting the Pixel's max CPU frequencies, it's not really the apps bug.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] GohanBurner:
I'm unable to get root after installing this, not sure if a kernel issue. I'm hating this phone more and more each day. No matter how much I flash the same SR4 zip I was able to gain root with before, still boot to no root.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TonikJDK:
Wrong SU. You said SR4 which is probably 2.78 SR4.

Ypu want 2.79 SR3

[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] duminduweera:
Sorry, my mistake. I flashed the kernel via fastboot and then twrp and supersu. But for some reason I still have the stock kernel.

Boot to root stopped being supported a long time ago lol.

I'll take your pixel of your hands :good:
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] PsiPhiDan:
On PureNexus running the latest version of this kernel (fk10). First time trying this kernel. I must say, it is INSANELY snappy compared to what I was just to (stock or EX)! Bravo, Franco!

I'll see how battery is tomorrow on a full day but performance is impressive!
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TENN3R:
Using stock 7.1.1 + latest kernel, unable to get root flashing supersu 2.79 SR3 failed, aborting.

Any help?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TonikJDK:
Fime here.

Make sure it is TWRP RC3 you are booting to when you install SU. And I have had better luck booting to twrp immediately after flashing the kernel without a restart.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TENN3R:
Using RC1 from official website, where can I get the RC3?

Sorry, I'm new to pixel, just received today.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] joetheshmo:
RC1 is correct
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TonikJDK:
Sorry, got su and TWRP messed up. Yea RC1 is correct.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TENN3R:
Is there a way to full unroot so i can retry? Or what i have to flash for get stock kernel?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TonikJDK:
Flash stock kernel, just to be sure. I don't understand it all... But TWRP is making backups of kernels, maybe su is too, partitions every where...it all makes my head hurt at times.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TENN3R:
Guys I flashed SuperSU 2.79 RC3 in:

-systemless => not working

-systemmode => not working

-cf autoroot => not working

-tried RC2 => not working

Can anyone tell me even another method? I don't know what to do.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
I know Pixel's not very user intuitive to flash these things.

Easy steps:

1 - adb reboot bootloader

2 - fastboot flash kernel FrancoKernel

3 - fastboot boot custom_recovery_name.img

4 - adb sideload SuperSu_whatever_version.zip

5 - reboot

6 - profit
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] herandy:
RC3 doesn't work for me either but RC1 does.

something weird is happening not sure if Franco kernel related....screen is not suspending

Enviado desde mi Pixel mediante Tapatalk
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
I don't see how that's Kernel related.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] schaggo:
It's not your kernel manager but I'll ask anyway: in EX Kernel Manager USB Fastcharge is marked as "disabled" after boot. This is stock, I am not applying any settings on boot.

Is this possibly a cosmetic issue only?

I ask because with most chargers and cables which used to work fine on the Nexus 5x, with the Pixel I get terrible charging speeds. With my previous standard chargers (2A) when recognised as "USB Charger", the phone usually slowly discharges with screen off. When connected as "AC Charger" it get 2000+mA, sometimes even "charging rapidly", on a standard charger.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] maflin18:
That is correct. Should be disabled. It's a tweak meant for devices that don't support fast charging out of the box. The pixel already supports fast charging, so no need to enable.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
Just make sure you're using the charger + cable that's offered in the box. That fast charge thing is only for USB connections, not for AC charging.

I made it.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
This kernel is working flawlessly on my Pixel, and I'm enjoying how well the phone runs. However, I have noticed that I face NETLINK and [timerfd] wakelocks when I keep wifi on (not massive wakelock times, but noticeable nonetheless). Is anyone else seeing this? I'm a noob when it comes to wakelocks and have googled this for a while, yet any changes or fixes people have suggested have not corrected these two particular wakelocks. Thanks!
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
That's just part of the Kernel. Can you print me the exact names of those wakelocks? I might be able to offer a way to disable them.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
Those are exactly how GSam lists the wakelocks by name. Are you looking for something different?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
Can you share a screenshot please?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
Here is what GSam shows now
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
Thank you. I'm gonna add a bunch of those wakelocks into the bypass list so you'll be able to disable them if you want.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] kingmikel:
Is there any downside to disabling wakelocks?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
The wakelocks exist to wake up the device to perform some type of work. Most of the times we don't really know why work X or Y needs to run at any arbitrary time, and more often than not those wakelocks just keep the device awake for longer than we'd hope, destroying battery life. But they exist for a reason.

So it's up to you on deciding if you want to prevent those specific wakelocks from running or not. I'm not gonna be the person to tell you what's the right or wrong decision.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sovanyio:
Do we need an update for NOF27B or is r10 still good?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
Running r10 on the update with no issues.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
Released r11 with patches from the March update, more security patches from Google's AOSP Kernel common tree, and added the ability to disable wlan_wow_wl, wlan, NETLINK, [timerfd] and netmgr_wl wakelocks. By default wlan_wow_wl, wlan and netmgr_wl are disabled, but I left NETLINK and [timerfd] on their stock state since I don't know what they do, leaving it up to you to decide.

Those will all be toggled through FK Manager & Updater app on 2.2.8 update that'll go live today.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] TonikJDK:
Flashed r11 and rerooted. No issues so far. Thank u sir.

[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
r11 has literally a big change to block more wakelocks...
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] keaheng:
The options to disable those wakelocks are available for all devices that use fk kernel or only pixels?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
Some devices have options to disable specific wakelocks. Not all devices share the same wakelocks...

That's ok, we can still be friends :highfive:
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] geoff5093:
I tried searching this thread but couldn't find a specific answer. In order to block wakelocks, in your app do we set the wakelock to "enabled" and then toggle it on?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
Toggling the wakelock to enabled will enable it. Most of the wakelocks are disabled by default, which means they won't act up. If it says disabled, you're good.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] geoff5093:
Ah, so there's no need to even have the app to block them, they're blocked by default? It's confusing because I can't tell if you're saying yes I want to enable this wakelock or yes I want to enable blocking this wakelock lol
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
Warlock, LMFAO!!!...but seriously, the app is still really useful and fully recommended. If the wakelock is listed as enabled, then it is enabled by default at boot. At that point, you would need to tap on the wakelock entry and put it to disable, and then toggle that setting for it to apply on boot.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
I understand that might be confusing. The update I'll release today will have better wording for the wakelocks blockers.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] geoff5093:
Haha I saw that at first and edited it. It was disabled when I installed the app, but I'll remove it just because I don't really have a need for it yet. Thanks!
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:

I just don't have a need to tweak the settings you spent your hard earned time to set as defaults :)
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sovanyio:
Is there any point in using the manager if I do not want to root my phone (use Android Pay a lot actually)? Mostly curious about toggling wake locks. Couldn't find a lot of information if there was any functionality covered without root.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
Nothing is possible without root.

New Franco Kernel Manager & Updater 2.2.7

1 - Added full support for the One Plus X

2 - Added an option to change governors per-cluster

3 - Added a new Per-App Profile option to change Maximum Display Brightness

4 - App features were abstracted to allow other devices not in the supported list to access them (if they have the Kernel support of course)

5 - Fixed a frequencies bug on Per-App Profiles. If you have profiles which reproduce this bug you need to delete & re-create those profiles (sorry)

I'm sorry if thus has been asked but is there a reason FKM&U is showing this? On PN on fk10...
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] joetheshmo:

Can you post a screenshot of your battery life after this cycle? I'm curious.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
Just from Android settings or a specific app? My android battery stats still show Android OS as keeping the phone awake for over an hour since I last charged, but I'm attributing that to keeping wifi on all the time (which I have seen on every Android device ever).
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
Android OS? Show me your wakelocks list again from GSAM. Maybe other wakelock that I'm not aware of.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
The thing is, no more wakelocks are showing. However, Android OS is showing kept awake for over 2 hours now. No idea what could be causing it, but I believe I notice the held awake time as a lot higher when I leave wifi on.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
Hmm I blocked most wlan wakelocks. Maybe it's Google's Search app?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
Do you mean Now/Assistant, or just the app in general? I don't have Assistant or Now or whatever it's called these days running.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
Hey FF...need anything else from me? Like I said, really weird that I'm seeing these kept awake times, but nothing to explain it. Not really a big deal tbh.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] franciscofranco:
IF nothing shows up in the wakelocks list there's nothing I can do.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
No problemo, good sir. No chance I'm moving from this kernel.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] SB1990:
Decided to try BBS and see if it pulled up anything on wakelocks. The app seems to show a bit more than GSam when I pull up the raw stats from when I last fully charged the Pixel. Franco, let me know if you see anything from this screenshot.

Edit: this looks to show a bit older than just my last full charge, but I think it will still help.

You can play with Per-App profiles which are extremelly powerful. You'll have built-in Performance Profiles after recoveries are out (because those are bundled into the ramdisk). Obviously if you underclock you'll have better SoT.
