Read a few pages back and it says it kills sound. He said he posted an updated kernel with the February patch.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I didnt update it with the February patch. I just didnt include the March stuff.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Gveric:
Ah okay. My mistake.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
No biggie. This whole sound thing is a mess. It requires ROM makers and kernel makers to be on the same page. Google is an ass.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Gveric:
Yeah. Still loyal to their products no matter what.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I agree, but on the other side of that is the people who have to make it work
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
It's to first thing I said, wipe caches meaning dalvik and caches the top and bottom one when in recovery and you chose wipe advanced wipe. Don't chose data or system. Then you will retain your data and everything;)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] erk1725:
I cant even remember the last time I wiped anything in recovery before flashing a KERNEL.....rom is different, but KERNEL just flash it:good::cool:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] suzook:
Can you make one with the march update????
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
Based on lack or response I will take that as a no
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
[MENTION=2313936]suzook[/MENTION] Read the OP. I have stated several times I have both
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I doubt I will do anything MM related
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Ill be releasing 1.8 soon. Made some changes to Wakelocks.

If you are on a ROM that hasnt updated to March security patch then you wont be able to flash this.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] suzook:
Sorry, this whole march update/Google f up has me confused. Thanks. Kernel working great!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Yeah, I wont be updating the pre march patch kernel build. Most ROMs have already done it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
It can create issues especially if there are many or major changes made to the kernel. Be on safe side and wipe caches or just flash it up to you
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
As soon as Android File Host fixes their upload services. I will be uploading V-1.8 and finally taking LOA.

If you have any kind of issues. CLEAN FLASH YOUR ROM. Im sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you but you'll be happy in the end.

If you don't have any issues then good....

Im out, you all behave while Im gone. No arguing and fighting.

EDIT: Its live
[Nexus 6 Android Development] str8str:
Lol you funny man. Thanks
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I got safetynet to pass out of nowhere. Thought you should know
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
Rumors are flying that google turned something off server side and then reposted the exact same factory images from a few days ago
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Yep
[Nexus 6 Android Development] II_DiE_4:
Cant flash the latest 1.8 on the new NEO rom. Ends in Error:7

Checked the md5 ofcourse and redownload..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
If you run into that. After you flash everything. Reboot from recovery back into recovery then flash.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] II_DiE_4:
ok ill try

Also i wanted to ask, with roms that come with magisk we need to flash the kernel and reflash the magisk since it repack the kernel?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Shouldn't. I didn't have to with my build.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] II_DiE_4:
Ok thanks.. rebooting seems to fix the error.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Not a kernel issue. If you flash things a certain way it mucks something up. Just reboot from recovery to recovery and flash
[Nexus 6 Android Development] rignfool:
BCL has a couple of things going on...

First... It checks battery voltage... Yes... Voltage...

When it drops below a preset value... (Somewhere around 3.4 volts) it throttles... Down to 2 cores... To a Max of 1958400...

Battery percentage as reported by the fuel gauge is inconsequential... Wana watch it happen... Try navigating with maps...

It also allows quick charge to function... Disable BCL... Disable quick charge...

Now... When BCL and an old battery get together... Really bad things happen... Like shutdowns at 40 or 50%... Under the right circumstances...
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
The only thing that I see wrong with that is I disable BCL by default. It is truly disabled. I still get quick charge @ 5volts. I havent really researched the technology but I assume the fact I can charge my phone from 20% to full in 30 minutes...

They can support 5,9 or 12 volts. So you do get the crappy end

Anyway, thanks for the explanation. You guys have a great couple of days. :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Gveric:
Honestly, you are one of the best rom/kernel developers out there. Very responsive, and quick with updates. Props to you man.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I'm no different than you. I'm just one of the guys. Hope everything is going well for everyone.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:

Use that if you have battery drain and leave feedback.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] michele72:
Hello,

I gave myself a couple of days of testing. Unfortunately I have bad news for the sound crackling issue. (which is different from the "no sound issue".)

I have been testing default and tuned settings for your 1.7, 1.8 and also the last test version you posted in GDrive.

I cannot get rid of annoying cracks and gaps in the sound. This happens also using wired headphones and with/without Viper4Android, albeit in a reduced amount without it. It is definitely exacerbated when the screen turns off and leave the phone still. As strange as it might be, if (with screen still off) if I shake the phone this seems to reduce the crackling. Might be a "placebo" though.

The standard Kernel included in AICP and recent test versions of Blackbird are not affected, I also tried setting very conservative CPU governors (chill, conservative) and Mako Hotplug which extremely plugs off CPUs, but the music plays just fine, not a single gap with CPUs at 223 or 300. This happens only with your Kernel. But it is ok, it is not the end of the world, it just means that my Shamu doesn't like your Kernel. :D Also, if no other user reports sound problems, maybe it is really something specific to my phone. :cool:
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
In ka would you try enabling speaker driver leakage. I listen to Pandora every night while I fall asleep and dont have any issues of the sort.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] johnb380:
Also raise your min cpu freq to 422 and enable wakeup boost and hotplug boost too maybe it won't make much of a difference on battery but your sound shouldnt crackle anymore.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I did secretly update the OP to V-2.0. I am working on a maintenance update, where 3.10.105 will be merged. Im still on a LOA but I do get work on the kernel when the wife isnt home. So it may be a slow update.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] ayylmaomyman:
The hero we need but don't deserve
[Nexus 6 Android Development] johnb380:
Yes and 2.0 is running amazing with latest XenonHD rom ! This combo is fast and stable! Haven't had any reboots and it's working good with videos and games so far too.

Thanks for all your work!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Oh, I have that 2.1 build done and have people testing it. it has 105 in it, some sound commits.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
V-2.1 is live. Huge maintenance update. It is 3.10.105. USB and sound works. Hopefully this is the kernel everyone would want. Performance, sips battery and stable.

I welcome any feedback
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
I'm jealous... I went back to 6.x for testing at can't try it
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
We will be waiting patiently for you here, when you come back to N :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] II_DiE_4:
No sound with latest kernel on new Validus ROM.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Then Validus hasnt updated to the march patch. I have a build for pre march roms. I dont keep it updated. I just left it as it was before I merged in MR1.5
[Nexus 6 Android Development] johnb380:
V 2.1 is running great with great sound too on newest Xenon HD ROM! I'm pretty sure it's not a kernel problem that your not having sound. This kernel is flying too!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Please keep me updated!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] II_DiE_4:
Problem is that its on March update. I have sound from headset but not from speaker. Dunno this messed up is not what nexus used to be
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Did you grab the right link? Possibly grab the pre march version? Also At your convenience could you clean flash please? I will do whatever it takes to get you up and running
[Nexus 6 Android Development] II_DiE_4:
I always clean flash. I flashed also arise dunno if that's the problem

I will try with the pre march version and see
[Nexus 6 Android Development] II_DiE_4:
OK seems like something is wrong with the ROM. I tried PMU and works fine.

Then I tried the 1.8 I had and again no sound. So thanks for the help man. It isn't your kernel's fault. The strange thing is that is on the latest update.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Ok.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] duttyend:
Kernel adiutor

Dear apophis,

I checked the latest release notes of the official version of Kernel Adiutor and it mentions a fix related to our SoC :

"apq8084: Fix thermal_zone for GPU (github-cygwin)"

Do you think it could benefit the mod version?

Have a good night

Cheers
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
That .json file would have to be called upon by something that I doubt KA-MOD has or he would have added the .json file. Hell maybe he even made it work differently. My app skills are close to my kernel skills. Nothing lol
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Hope everything is going well for everyone. Got stuck at the wifes work fixing all the things. PCs to android. Refuse to touch anything iOS lol. She works at a pawn shop so the knowledge helps

[MENTION=4392154]apophis9283[/MENTION] new version of six dropped:

sixrom_shamu-7.1.1-20170312-OMS-v6.4-R3Ds.zip is the name not sure I should share links as dont wanna piss off the dev... He isn't on xda for a reason I would guess.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Thank you. I would imagine it includes blinking LED. I have been in touch with a ton of people since I included it in my personal RR builds. I just want to say with all this going on and all the links. Let's be thankful for the guys behind it.

I feel like this kernel at this point in time can stand up and be solid for every day use. I don't see me touching it much, so I expect activity in the thread to drop. I'm not leaving. I'll be here, just expect things to be quiet. I will still listen to whatever you guys have to say. So dont feel like you can't say it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
Found this... no mention of led

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qTE1CjQfHOofeyq1j_L-Is6cpqw3ba1J6tcQ3gkbtS8/edit

of and I FINALLY found his main page

https://plus.google.com/u/0/+FrankieTR3Ds

Silence is golden and it means there are no issues so let hope this thread goes completely dead :D
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Ive given the guy who asked for it, I guess he knows the dev, the links several times. I was told the dev himself requested it so I assumed it would be in there.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] droidxxxxx:
Looking all over I cannot find the thread to this ROM..
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
There is no thread. Look on google plus
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I have also made correct branches for this kernel.

I now have

N-RELEASE

STABLE

TESTING

So going forward I can do so more responsibly.

Edit: I will also be creating a Telegram group, with 4 to 5 volunteers to test when I am ready.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
Lost 35% battery during my deep sleep test. Phone refuses to sleep and seems to be kernel related. See attached.

Also think I mentioned before but if you set your ka to use intellimm and reboot intellimm choice does not keep. Going to redo build shortly if there are more logs you need first post back and I will pull them for you.

Update: BCL hotplug settings not keeping in your ka either. Turned it back on as stated earlier with it on charging is much much faster..... And yes confirmed ka dues have root

update2: Sorry this is so long but here is a huge logcat of the 9+ hour sleep

http://bit.ly/2mNE3GV

If you filter on kernel I see a path error that may explain ka not saving options
[Nexus 6 Android Development] erk1725:
I dont have this problem....running nitrogen rom with v2.1 and more or less stock included settings for KA
[Nexus 6 Android Development] erk1725:
sorry I dont know how to upload pics correctly sometimes
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Yeah I'm at a loss. I'll take a look. But seeing as you flashed a new ROM and you are just now having issues. I'm hesistant to think its the kernel

This BCL thing is dumb. I'll look into. My phone sleeps extremely well
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
Ok here is my process

Loaded newest six rom

Loaded feb min idynamic gapps

let the rom sit overnight without any other changes didnt even add back programs and got about a .5%/hour drain

pretty good so I added back programs and your kernel and of course reloaded magisk after your kernel

setup ka mod to change gov to intellimm and enable bcl (for charging purposes)

rebooted and went to bed

next morning woke up to find phone at 65% (was at 100% when i went to bed)

took the screen shots and included logcat and posted

booted back into recovery and removed gapps.sh from system/addon.d

dirty flashed rom, the same gapps, latest franco and magisk

cleared ka mod settings and never set any new ones

no other changes

Phone seems to be sleeping now

If i have missed any details that might help just let me know. Not saying this is a kernel issue per say, especially since no one else is having any issues, but the power manager at 100% and the phone screen off and awake at 100% points me in that direction. Also the fact that loading a different kernel seems to resolve the issue also seems point that way. Unless running ka is somehow causing the issue. I really dont know and am by no means saying anything bad about your work or your kernel. I am simply listing what I did and didn't do and the results I am seeing so hopefully this can be figured out.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
What I'm getting

BCL could be doing polling possibly. As I dont use it, thats the first thought

Honestly to use BCL for charging especially over long periods of time makes no sense. But my guess BCL would be to blame.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Yeah I borked it. When I was fixing it last time. But this is good. I get to use my new system for pushing updates.

I have one person willing to test. Do I have any takers?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MrSplaat:
Just checked BCL myself, it sticks in KA. Bad thing is that it seems kinda borked. I rebooted the phone after I enabled BCL, booting the phone as normal. Suddenly the screen went black and it froze. After some secs it started booting again but now the ROM boots with totally different settings than what I used before I enabled BCL. Even apps I've never open is acting up, showing me ****, like AccuBattery that suddenly showed the notification info by itself. Some widgets also have vanished/been altered by.. god knows what. I did a clean install a few days ago and it has been working fine until now.

*raising hand*
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I already implemented fixes. Those will get pushed to the testing branch. If they are found to be stable, ill push them to stable branch. After a collection of updates have been deemed stable, then I will push them to N-RELEASE where I will then push a release.

Im making a Telegram channel. Give me your name if you want to test
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I sent link you need for the channel. I pm'd them to you so please check your inbox
[Nexus 6 Android Development] MrSplaat:
I'm in the channel now :good:

---------- Post added at 17:14 ---------- Previous post was at 17:08 ----------

Gonna take a backup before I do anything else now!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
All I focused on was BCL. I have a great group of guys testing for me. If by end of day they dont have any issues, Ill bump it to V-2.2 since BCL is really important to people.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
Well for example to charge my phone last night said it estimated 1 hour 22 min, turned bcl bacvk on it changed estimate to about 40 min.

But as far as bcl being the culprit remember i stated above i set bcl and intellimm to on in KA but after i rebooted and checked ka the following morning they were both back to defaults, displaying the original stock values not the ones I had set.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Come join the crew.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Starting using a new toolchain, so far for me everything is awesome. Also did a sound overhaul, I've raised vibration from 50% to 60% default. I'm on a roll. The testers have the build so waiting for the testing to finish and I feel everything is in order

I have room for one more person to test if anyone wants to fill it
[Nexus 6 Android Development] divyanshu Saini:
Awesome !

Hey dev, great job.

Your kernel is super snappy and stable, rocking with Resurrection Remix Os.

I appreciate your work and thank you for such and awesome kernel
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Dopemusic89:
Extremely interested if still available. Thanks for all your hard work! Running 2.1 strong and stable!

I would have to agree my phone losses very little during sleep, sleeps live a baby
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I know normally Im in the thread giving updates and all that, but since starting the Testing channel, its soo much easier on me. Just know things are working out really really well
[Nexus 6 Android Development] II_DiE_4:
Well can we still get some betas? Instead of alphas and alot of releases maybe after 2-3 testing builds just throw a download link here too.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] adm1jtg:
Introduce yoursel

hi I am (insert name) and I am a dark energy addicted crack flasher
[Nexus 6 Android Development] TheGeekyNimrod:
Has anyone else had issues with the screen coming on slowly when receiving a call or when hanging up from a call? Just started recently and I can't figure out what's up. I'm using the pre-march release version (waiting on PN to update to March) and the Google dialer app if that makes a difference. This is the only issue I have, and just kind of thought that it may be kernel related since the ROM hasn't updated in a while.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] wrongway213:
Believe PN updates tomorrow, to be honest I am guessing you'll be able to figure it out a lot better then than you possibly could now
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I will do my best to give you some kind of beta update. I think that's fair. I didn't finish, what I wanted to tonight. Know I have amazing testers who aren't letting any bullcrap by. I'm thankful for them for taking the time to give me praise and or sh** when something's not right
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
My post march kernel is so far ahead. I'm sorry that I can't accomadate to pre march ROMS. I'm trying to focus on post march updates for my kernel. I really think once is all said and done. You will enjoy it. This goes without saying if you do find an issue, just let me know
[Nexus 6 Android Development] TheGeekyNimrod:
PN just updated last night. I will do a complete wipe and flash of both PN and the kernel. Especially now that I can move forward to the newest one.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I really did plan on posting a test build for you all as requested, but at this point I have what I want and got all the feedback from the testers and they have pretty much the next release. So, now its just a waiting game to see if everyone is happy with it
[Nexus 6 Android Development] TheGeekyNimrod:
Do you have plans on implementing the Kraken governor again in the future? One of my favorites when I'm not using Darkness. Just noww got setup with a total clean flash of PN and the 2.1 kernel (had Little League practice all day today). If I have any issues, I'll log and let you know. Thanks as always for your continued work.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Probably shouldnt word it that way..... Yeah. Ill brink it back
[Nexus 6 Android Development] TheGeekyNimrod:
I'm confused?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
I think youll see why I just went back to Elemental X with this commit. Given I didnt keep it updated but you can clearly see why.

https://github.com/APOPHIS9283/Dark-Energy/commit/9ab1d0d093ce96e68f92c0cb4e5418bf63a4cffd
[Nexus 6 Android Development] TheGeekyNimrod:
That's a hefty commit for sure. I'm not hard up for the having it, I was more just curious if it would be there. By no means do I expect to see it, or expect you to go back and use it again. I've been more on Darkness recently, as I seem to get a tad bit more life out of it. I wish I had a build environment again so I could play with these things myself, but alas, I do not. Perhaps after I graduate I'll migrate back into a little dev work again.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Youre missing the point. There werent many differences from ElementalX to That governor. Ill bring it back for you. But as you see, I didnt even bring it on as its own, just gave credit to the writer. And it was not a hefty commit.

EDIT: I just went to their thread. It must have been pulled, I cant find kernel source for them at all. Unless Im Missing it

You've pretty much been using ElementalX
[Nexus 6 Android Development] TheGeekyNimrod:
Oooooooooooo. Okay. Yeah, I missed the point. To me, that's a lengthy commit, but then again I never did kernel dev work. If it's pretty much the same, then no worries. I feel dumb now lol.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
It looks like at some point they did make more changes, possibly from ElementalX. I havent updated ElementalX and compared it to Kraken governor. So Im not sure where that stands. It was based off ElementalX. At the point I grabbed it, doesnt look like it really diverged from ElementalX but I would be willing to bring it on as its own governor

Understand that it would be a future release as Ive given the testers what Id like to be a release
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
NVMD

Im set to release tonight as long as none of the testers report any issues.

Something I want to prepare you for. To avoid issues, you can try dirty flashing your ROM, but if any issues persist I won't look at logs until a clean flash has been preformed. So make a backup.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] CyberpodS2:
Is this for the rom or the kernel to be reset? Would flashing the stock kernel before updating accomplish the same thing? I always keep a kernel.img from the rom I am running in my storage so i can troubleshoot easier.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] apophis9283:
Im trying to say that if you dirty flash the kernel and have issues, then I wont look at logs until a clean flash is performed. Im not saying you will have issues.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] CyberpodS2:
Ok cool
