[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] About4Mexicans:
Rooted my Lg L70 Ms323 with Kingroot. Everything seemed fine (aside from being unable to find a recovery to flash.) I woke up this morning and I kept getting:

"Com.google.gapps.processes has stopped working"

It would consistently pop up. I cleares data and cache of play and services. Then I uninstalled updates and disabled in hopes resetting it and re-updating would help. The error stopped but services wont update. I keep getting insufficient storage when I try to install any apps or update services. Whats confusing is that while trying to fix this all my other apps are auto-updating with no storage issue.

This increases battery life by a bit, after freezing these services(they are 100% safe to freeze) my phone now lasts a full day.

A little back story: I'm currently running the latest stock PIA firmware, I used to run Echoe Rom, but I encountered some issues and switched back to stock... I heavily debloated my device and battery is now smooth, I created my own script to debloat if you guys want it, please leave a comment.

You can use anything to disable these services I'm just using titanium backup.

Back to the main topic here,

So the following should be frozen:

com.qualcomm.atfwd

com.qualcomm.timeservice

com.qualcomm.location.XT
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discuss] TH3B0SS:
Are those important?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discuss] KillerClaw321:
There are no errors, and nothing unusual happening on my phone after freezing them, so I'd say the you are safe... If anything goes wrong you can just unfreeze it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discuss] TH3B0SS:
Does this fix or has the random bootloop been fixed yet cuz that's really my main concern about rooting my device
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discuss] KillerClaw321:
The random bootloops only happen if people don't disable security policy updates, I just use Titanium Backup to do so... Then I use XTouchwiz to trick system status to official.(then again when you debloat your phone, you won't encounter any issues... At least if you know what your doing.)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discuss] KillerClaw321:
If you heavily tamper with the phone you can also encounter bootloops, but I have never had an issue where I lost root or randomly ran into a bootloop... You just have to know what you are doing. So feel free to ask ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discuss] TH3B0SS:
That helps alot I'll reroot and disable what I need to so it doesn't go into bootloop and I'll also try disabling the other things as well to see how that goes

Chainfire's root for the Pixel/Pixel XL is live!

I'm running this kernel with root and it works great! A few small things in the EX Kernel app that still need to be implemented/fixed (@flar2 already knows), but so far after a few hours things are still solid.

So far when I flash EX kernel root stops working and when I reboot the phone to root it again kernel reverts back to stock. Is there a way to keep the kernel permanently?

How many more cores are there?

---------- Post added at 10:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 PM ----------

How did you manage to get the kernel and root running at the same time? One removes the other for me. Is there a way to flash the kernel permanently?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] blk_jack:
You flash this kernel with:

fastboot flash boot IMAGE

Then the root boot image:

fastboot boot KERNEL_IMAGE

Make sure you leave off the flash part for the kernel.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mrnovanova:
Thanks for the reply but i don't see the distinction between "this" kernel and "the" kernel. Are there two kernels or one I'm supposed to flash twice?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] flar2:
Update!!

Changes for 0.05:

-add vibration control

Obviously you'll need root to play with this stuff.

Here's the procedure:

1. reboot to bootloader

2. fastboot flash boot_a EX-P-0.05.img

3. fastboot boot boot-to-root.img

4. Profit...

I just pushed an update to EX Kernel Manager. Version 2.93 fully supports the Pixel. It fixes the crash on the Graphics screen, adds vibration control, updates to work with all GPU settings, and fixes Kernel Backups.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] blk_jack:
The second kernel is Chainfire's root boot image.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mrnovanova:
Success!!! I got both working now thanks. Will I have to do this after every reboot or will the kernel stick because I did flash instead of just boot?

Thanks btw! Much apreesh!
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] danaff37:
If I flash the kernel without root, just to get Android pay working, what would be different from stock kennel? Sweep 2 wake and sweep to sleep are both on correct? Any scheduler/swap/zram/clock changes?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] flar2:
No, it works for me. Did you Greenify EXKM? Are clicking the apply on boot icon to the right of the settings?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Thijssie909:
I have greenify installed, but did not greenify EXKM... Boot icons are checked, where only sweep to sleep is still on after a reboot. I will try and play around to see what causes this.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Thijssie909:
I reflashed the kernel and now it works. Can not remember that I set the gestures in the aroma installer the first time I flashed the kernel. Can it be that I did not had the options? But that would be strange right?

Edit: I think it has to do with the fact that I flashed the kernel right after supersu. Somehow the gestures options thereby did not appear the first time, making the settings not stick afterwards...
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Atemi1337:
I hate to ask, but would you mind correcting me? Coming from Root with EleX for the OTA, where do we need to flash the stock Boot.img to allow OTA? Aafter flashing it do we need to just let the device download and install the OTA or do we need to set up a side load? After updated, we do the standard process of flashing to get TWRP, SU, and EleX.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Thijssie909:
Hi Flar, would it be possible to do something with the time the LED is flashing? It stops quite fast... Or does this needs to be fixed at the rom side?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] nednednerb:
That is ROM side. Apps like Lightflow can control LED notifications extensively. Custom ROMs can also provide options here.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] snOwjAwk:
Is there a sideloadable file I can download? I don't want TWRP recovery yet but still this kernel...

Thanks in advance :)
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] flar2:
Grab elex.Image from the boot directory inside my zip. You can then reboot to bootloader and fastboot flash kernel elex.Image

You fresh flashed, so your idle drain will likely settle down unless you have some rogue app causing drain.

Typically, my idle drain on EX kernel has varied around 1% per hour. Sometimes a bit more, sometimes a bit less.

Your active drain seems decent already, for what it is worth.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] flar2:
Use if for a few days.

I average 15-18% /hr active and 0.5-1%/hr idle

Backlight dimmer and high brightness mode explanation

Could someone please explain exactly what these toggles do? As far as I can see, the backlight dimmer doesn't change anything. The screen is just as bright, even when set to minimum brightness. High brightness mode seems to make the phone ignore the brightness setting entirely, and it looks like it might be brighter than the default max by a very small degree. I was hoping I would be able to set the minimum brightness value down to 1 like I could on my N5. I really just want it a bit dimmer than minimum for reading at night.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] joetheshmo:
Backlight dimmer will take effect the next time you turn your screen on after enabling the setting, and imo the high brightness mode is very handy in the bright Cali sun
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] snOwjAwk:
Hey folks, today my died very fast and I don't know why... phone was in my pocket and I just felt that it got quite hot so I pulled it out bcuz my first guess was that the screen has been on but that wasn't the case. I have zero clue what the drain came from ...

Kind regards
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] flar2:
It doesn't matter, Google services or something probably went crazy. Just reboot and it will probably be back to normal.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] flar2:
The backlight dimmer just uses a different brightness curve that is dimmer at low brightness and same at medium to high brightness.

HBM makes the screen much brighter than the max stock brightness for use outdoors on a bright sunny day.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] blk_jack:
Make sure you're on the latest version of Android for the Pixel or you could be suffering from this issue..
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] snOwjAwk:
I've just read thru the thread, but in my case no data volume has been used. I also don't even find that suspect com.qti.service app thingy in my app list. Weird. But thanks for telling tho, maybe I should update to the latest patch anyway. I just don't want to loose d2w :(
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] flar2:

[MENTION=2141823]hacked[/MENTION]

I recommend trying "night light" QS toggle (built in to stock 7.1) at night.

There is scientific evidence that Night Light type features (remove some blue light) helps your brain be more restful before sleep and easier to not have insomnia issues due to the "bright and irritating" bandwidth of light.

(It is only "bright and irritating" at night when darkness is the way our biology and sleep patterns like it.)
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] johnandbodhi:
tons of evidence that blue light affects the brain..google search will prove.. american pediatric society has consensus statement, and new guidelines in limiting exposure...but hey i know a guy who knows a guy who thinks i
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] hackel:
Ahh, thanks. Will we ever be able to reduce the brightness lower than stock, or does the Pixel hardware just not support it?

For sure. I switched back to cf.lumen for that, though, as it provides more customisation options. (Thanks to Ex for the kcal driver support!)
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] nednednerb:
I used this app a few years ago with my HTC Incredible S. I find I didn't need it on my Nexus 5. Pixel seems decent. If I didn't have Night Light I would probably use this again. I'll check out cf.lumen.

Someone said only boot restores are working. So I could restore back to my rooted NDE63X boot backup?

Thanks in advance!
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] joetheshmo:
You are safe to flash it if you have twrp and root on the stock boot.img. You don't need to flash SuperSU again after flashing ElementalX, and yes you can backup the boot IMG with twrp before flashing if you want to be careful

It seems that safty net bypass doesn't work on my pixel, is that because i have supersu installed? Anyway to solve it?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] flar2:
It's because of SuperSU. It's really annoying that Google doesn't want you to root. Hardly anyone mods their phone anymore because of this bs. At least you can still have a custom kernel.

Bit anyway, I would choose root over things like Android Pay any day.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] quangtran1:
Totally agreed. Although I was conveniently using Android Pay every single day, I gained an irreplaceable peace of mind with TWRP and Titanium Backup, not to mention AdGuard, Root Explorer. Current OSes, including Apple's, have accommodated a lot of past rooted apps. However, there are some that I'm still clinging to for safety reasons.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] ansontyl96:
Yea man I just cant live without titanium backup but it will be nice if we can use android pay as well, I guess what we can do is to wait for systenless root for us?

Extract the image from the boot folder in the zip and use fastboot flash kernel, although you might want to wait for flar2 to update the kernel for 7.1.1, but let us know how it works for you

On 7.1.1. flash-all factory image preserving userdata.

Noticed that Kernel version was same as prior 7.1, even signed Nov 7 2016, so

There are no kernel changes to report or changes needed.

I am rooted SR4 and EX-P-1.00 on 7.1.1.

---------- Post added at 12:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 AM ----------

I used the TWRP Alpha2 simply as "fastboot boot twrp-XX.img" so did not install, and used it to root and install custom kernel. No traces of TWRP are installed. It just loads in memory.
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] -DarkKnight-:
do the double tap to wake gestures and the lift to wake gestures work?
[Google Pixel ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] nednednerb:
Lift to Wake gesture works great.

As for DT2W, the setting in EXKM dominates. And the stock button is irrelevant. [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] did previously mention awareness of this, that the coding for his DT2W was different than stock implementation. It will be tweaked in a future version I anticipate.

Also, I think stock version should just wake the ambient display (lift to wake does this), but kernel version (of DT2W) wakes to lock screen.
