Any camera app. Google, Snap, Snapchat, Instagram..etc. clean flash. I always clean flash. Sometimes I wipe and flash a few times till I get a certified label in the play store.

sigma Kernel 8.4

Update!

I don't see any show-stopper bugs and that's quite an achievement for kernel heavily updated with fixes from mainstream and CAF. After a week long of testing, here's another update for great community! Please remember stock settings for cpufreq (gov, max-min, hotplug) are best balanced - power and performance. If you change them, you're a pro and on your own. ;)

Short changelog

Panel driver improvements from CAF and Samsung.

Improved panel brightness values from Motorola.

Fixes for camera driver from CAF and Samsung.

Few fixes and improvements from mainstream.

[Nexus 6 Android Development] nick491:
I've had a couple of 90% or much higher battery power level reboots. This could Magisk or a setting or something else entirely.

Right now I'm running Wakeup Boost, Hotplug Boost, AutoSMP, Intellithermal, Headphone Gain (sound increase sometimes when I can't hear), USB Fast Charge,

Right now my CPU temp is at 163°F, GPU 150°F, & Battery 113°F.

Running a Nexus 6 with crDroid 3.6 with OpenGAPPs pico and sigma Kernel 8.4.

Never had a problem you're experiencing but did have the screen moved around in 2 or 3 quadrants a few times with sigma Kernel 8.3 after full clean of crDroid 3.6 and OpenGAPPs pico. The issue has gone away completely so idk.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jbaumert:
WOW!!! That seems to be running hot... My phone sitting here idle is at 89 deg F for a CPU temp and a battery temp of 80 deg F. Could this be the cause of your reboots?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] nick491:
Idk I have my brightness set to full and I was watching a movie. Where I'm at is 79°F. The CPU is at 120°F

New kernel had the audio stuttering issue, which I hadn't seen since you had me disable MSM Limiter and State Helper. I checked, and on this version of the kernel, State Helper is turned on by default, when it wasn't in 8.4. Turned that off, and the stuttering went away. Not sure if that was intentional, but in case you get reports of stuttering, it might be that. Once I disabled State Helper, everything's smooth as can be so far.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] neobuddy89:
State helper was on for all versions so far while msm limiter is off by default. Can you please let me know what app and ROM you are on to face music stutter?
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Lagarde:
Pure Nexus latest release (issue appears on previous Pure Nexus versions, too).

Using Kernel Auditor Mod to see this. On 8.4, it showed default of State Helper off. On 8.5, it showed default on. I've been leaving it at all defaults, but this time I had to manually turn off State Helper to stop the stutter.

Stutter is about every 1-2min with screen off, in both Pandora and Google Play Music, playing on my bluetooth headset.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Black_Hat01:
Truly an amazing kernel. I look up to this kernel and it's amazing dev, [MENTION=3795148]neobuddy89[/MENTION] . Keep up the good work.

Leave state helper on. Set number of CPUs online to 2 or 3 when screen is off.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] heisenbergfromIN:
No issues after updating to 8.5.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Lagarde:
Ok, I left things at default (State Helper on) and then switched screen-off CPUs to 2. That seems to have fixed the stutter.

Overnight, I did see some strange battery draw. Normally I see 0.5-0.8% battery draw per hour (15% or so overnight unplugged). Last night I saw 40% usage (5% per hour). No app listed as source. Might be a fluke. I'll keep monitoring and testing and let you know if there's some weirdness going on. This weekend, I'll do a fresh ROM/kernel load just to make sure nothing else is causing it.

Thanks again for all your hard work!
[Nexus 6 Android Development] enzoevo:
Any time you flash a new kernel you have to give 3 or 4 days to let it settle in.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Lagarde:
Ahh, thought that was just the ROM. Didn't realize it applied to kernels. I'll ignore it until next week and try again on checking battery. Thanks! :)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] Mystique:
I disable touch boost, enable DoubleTap2Wake, change the congestion control to scalable, and vibration to 50.. other than that.. Just leave it at stock ;)

Spotify via BT to head phones or car no stutter or lag..

Also Atmos, Viper, and deep_buffer remover in Magisk.. (and adjustments in those accordingly)
[Nexus 6 Android Development] neobuddy89:
Update!

This is an important update. Found out that our last update increased power drain a bit since cpufreq driver became more latency sensitive to workload i.e. even when CPU load is not very high - CPU will hover at 1.4 GHz especially when only 1 core is online (when device suspends). This issue is fixed in v8.6.

Short changelog

Fix unusual idle power drain in last update.

Pure

Anyone using this kernel with Pure Nexus latest (I think it's 7/25). I was using it with Nitrogent and it was beautiful, except for the camera issue. I think the camera issue was coming from the gapps package I was using (Open Gapps). I'm rambling, anyway I wanted to know peoples experience with Pure and this rom. Any issues I need to know. If this post doesn't belong here please let me know and I will remove it.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] jbaumert:
I also seem to have "random" issues with the camera. Running Stock ROM (N8I11B) and with a new install of this kernel, everything seems to work. After a reboot, I either loose the front camera or the camera app force closes altogether.
[Nexus 6 Android Development] neobuddy89:

[Nexus 6 Android Development] turnoffer:
It's not only a v8.8 kernel bug. I see it randomly on v8.2 (crDroid 20170723), but it's not often and I can't figure a reason. Front camera can be not available just right after a reboot sometimes or after a few days of flawless working

I recently flashed ZUI v2.5.358ST TWRP, The ROM is really great, the only problem i am facing is that the mic volume is very low during calls and even while recording my voice through the voice recorder app. Is there any way to increase mic volume?

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jhs39:
I ran into the exact same problem but it might not be for the same reason as you. I was on Android O and downgraded to Nougat. Someone suggested that I run the flash-all.bat command and flash the stock image separately to both partitions A & B. Not really understanding the partitions I don't know why that worked but right after I did it I was able to boot into fastboot TWRP immediately --and this was after hours of trying anything and everything I could think of with nothing working.

I have 7.1.2 nkg47b flashed to both slots, newest platform tools from google, issue command: fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-0-RC1-fastboot-marlin.img and it goes right in to twrp. then from temporary twrp image, I install the twrp RC1 zip for the permanent recovery. works great for me. So, maybe make sure both slots are the same, new updated adb/fastboot tools, RC1 works better that RC2 for me, do temporary by flashing the img file, then permanent install with the zip file.

Depends on your build number. If it's C432 you should be able to update to Nougat. If not you will need to follow the debrand guide found on this forum.

[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] BlockABoots:
Hmm i think the phone is bricked, im unable to get into the menu to update the Update.app file from the dload folder on the SD card, i cant even get the phone to switch off it just keeps restarting itself and freezing on the 'your device has been unlocked and cant be trusted' screen....

if i try and turn the phone of it just turns itself back on and freezes on that screen again

Im able to get to the Fastboot & recovery mode screen if i hold volume down button.......

and if i hold down both the volume and power buttons i get this screen....

and not the firmware update screen i should be getting.

It has been suggested that i need to use DC Phoenix program to fix the phone but thats a paid method and dont really want to go that route if there is another way!??
