To manage this (4h on 4G/LTE and 6h on wifi)

-put big cores off

-set conservative gov and block CPU freq to 960 or 1280 depending on your use this can lag

-use an app to have a real deep sleep (like greenify , lspeed to avoid background apps)

-use tasker for disabling GPS,wifi , data , synch and run them every 20 minutes or when you need to, and to create boost profiles for intensive tasks like camera so tasker enable interactive@1440Hz

-Use pure nexus or dirty unicorn for controlling background apps and because these are the best so far

-Don't play games ? Right ? So set GPU to powersave and GPU freq to 450 MHz

Forgot screenshots of sot ?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] j-a-d-z:
No, I'm on stock 8.0 oct. update with greenify, some pixel mods, magisk and this kernel. Nothing underclocked or turned of. Impulse gov. with stock frequencys. WLAN, data, GPS, and sync is on. No games today, only YouTube, WhatsApp, some photos taken and surfing the www. Game over at 8 hours SOT. Yeehaw! :cowboy:
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Skittles9823:
You're a mad lad fam. You're on the latest version on this kernel yea? I may have to see how it goes on Oreo. I havent tried it for a bout a month.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] harib12:
well i think the new interactive governer is doing its job very well no need to do anything just increase readahead to 768kb that will do the job

Hi,

Bootloop ans wrong Start diagram for me.

Aicp nightly 20171111
[Nexus 5X Android Development] aalleexxnn:
HI! It seems shadow kernel not compatible whith Omni rom and ABC rom. Version 2.5 - reboot after 5-10 second after booting on Omni rom 20171102, not recognize sim card. Hardcore kernel working fine on Omni rom. Previous version Shadow kernel 2.4 - the same situation on ABC rom 20171102. same situation on abc whith Franco kernel. I'm check now abc rom 20171112 - bootloop whith shadow kernel 2.5

On which custom rom it working? I want to try impulse governor
[Nexus 5X Android Development] 57DeNiK57:
It works with Pixel²ROM
[Nexus 5X Android Development] venkatsrin:
Yup best kernel I've used so far on stock Oreo and Pixel 2 Rom! Smooth, great battery life, standby and wakelocks well in control. Don't have root - just out of the box config.

Thank you Mr. Ace :good:
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Topse:
Maybe you try a clean flash of your Rom!

I used shadow long time with abc rom.

When you change your custom kernel always dirty flash your Rom bevor.

[MENTION=6998415]mr.ace[/MENTION] You are a bo$$ ! ?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] 65coupei6:
Not working on latest ABC rom for me also.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Skittles9823:
Can confirm be too. Itll boot but stall almost instantly then reboot. I wonder why ??
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
I found it's related to disabled dm-verity in the ramdisk I'll make a test build for those that have boot-up issues
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Skittles9823:
Awesome! I'll be sure to test.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Topse:
How can I make my abc builds compatible with that?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Skittles9823:
You dont need to. He'll have a fix soon.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
First TEST BUILD : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745849072291688500

[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
same problem :(

I'm on AICP rom.

Thanks for working on it :good:

Ps : your kernel is working fine on stock and I guess on AOSP too , I'm just waiting for pure nexus or dirty unicorn.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Lughnasadh:
This kernel is working fine for me on AICP 8.0, for what its worth. No problems at all.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Benjamin_L:
Franco was also working for you right? I got the bootloops with it as well. So something is going on here ;)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
You mean AICP 13.0 runing android 8.0? If it's right so what did you do to get it working?!
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Lughnasadh:
Yes, Franco was working for me as well.

---------- Post added at 02:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 PM ----------

Yes, AICP Oreo. I didn't do anything special, it just works.

When I update a nightly, this is my process:

1. Wipe Dalvik/Cache/System

2. Flash Rom

3. Flash SuperSu 2.82SR1

4. Flash Shadow kernel

5. Flash GApps (although not needed on AICP)

6. Flash a couple of other things unrelated to this discussion (Adaway, ARISE, etc...)

Addendum: Make sure you have all Substratum theme overlays disabled. Some of these overlays will cause a SystemUI crash and reboot on AICP.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
thanks for help I did all these steps and it works like a charm. So like always I just ****ing hate magisk as I'm sure it was (like always) the culprit.

ps: what's your theme, look wonderful.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] jugoslavpetrovic:
For me to v24 and v25 both work fine with latest AICP, Franco as well.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] buffer overflow:
Use v 2.5 . I have this kernel on aicp rom Oreo and is just awesome.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Lughnasadh:
Glad you got it going :good:

For the theme, I use Sprite (Clear/OrangeCrush) as the base, Quetzal for the Navbar buttons, and a combination of Dark Infusion (for SystemUI Headers to color status bar), Spectrum, Neon Colors and Domination for other apps/elements.

But using certain SystemUI overlays will crash SystemUI and force a reboot so you gotta be careful which overlays you use.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] aalleexxnn:
by me:

a lot of attempts:

1. Wipe Dalvik/Cache/System

2. Flash ABC Rom(by topse, by mohican) , Omni rom

3. Flash Magisk

4. NO flash GApps

5. Boot into system. Everithing works well

6. go to TWRP, flash Shadow 2.5 kernel

7. Boot into system. After 5-10 sec reboot and bootloop

if flash Hardcore kernel (3.10.108) in point 6 - everithing works well, NO reboots.

OK. attempt without magisk.

1. Wipe Dalvik/Cache/System

2. Flash ABC Rom

3. NO flash SuperSU or Magisk

4. NO flash GApps

5. Boot into system. Everithing works well

6. Flash Shadow 2.5 kernel

7. Boot into system. After 5-10 sec reboot and bootloop

and was attempt

1. Wipe Dalvik/Cache/System

2. Flash ABC Rom

3. Flash Shadow 2.5 kernel

3. NO flash SuperSU or Magisk

4. NO flash GApps

5. Boot into system. After 5-10 sec reboot and bootloop

may be i need format data in TWRP, may be fantoms of Magisk....

I am a loser..:crying:
[Nexus 5X Android Development] wilq1337:
i also have problems with this kernel on AICP, after flashing and rebooting, i have to enter pin to continue booting. after that it says "starting android..." which takes too long (about 10 sec instead of 2-3 on stock kernel), then it shows boot logo for a moment and reboots into bootloader. i tried with wiping data, dalvik and without flashing magisk and it still fails to boot. i might add that jolla and ex kernel are working perfectly so there is something wrong either with rom or this kernel
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
I'll try take a look at ABC and AICP ROM tonight
[Nexus 5X Android Development] 65coupei6:
I switched to AICP from ABC Rom and this kernel is working fine now. i had rebooting problems with franco and purez also on ABC Rom.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
Now I switched to supersu the kernel is working well on AICP but when I set CPU gov to conservative the device is rebooting itself after being in idle for a while.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
All is fine for me.

i don't know why you have that issue on ABC
[Nexus 5X Android Development] jugoslavpetrovic:
I am not being able to locate the ABC ROM that people are talking about here and I would like to take a look. Can anyone provide the link to the thread? Thanks
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
They are no easy to find as it's a thread where anyone can post it's own build but here is the link of the best and most up to date abc rom

https://xdaforums.com/custom-roms/a...ive/rom-builders-collective-t2861778/page1917
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Skittles9823:
Hmm, thats really weird. What root do you use?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
I'm now on stock as AICP and ABC are not stable enough so I prefer wait for dirty unicorn or pn

But the only problem with the kernel is when I choose conservative and 960mhz and shutdown 2 Big cores (and the device stay extremely smooth ) but when the device is in idle mode it crash on ABC rom and AICP but on stock it doesn't crash it just take about 15 seconds to response to what I do.

So please correct that as it's really anoying and I don't want to change to impulse or interactive as conservative is good enough for my kind of use with 4h or more of sot

EDIT: apparently it was caused by ex kernel manager and last version fixed this.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] jugoslavpetrovic:
Holly macaroni, I saw that thread in my searching adventure but that thread is such a mess to follow. True, I even did found the post of bullhead rom link but I know really nothing about the rom, the features and It's so just somewhere in vast of a mess of posts about every different builds for several devices. And I saw "somewhere" that camera is missing and "someone's" advice to get the on apkmirror or so and so on. I'm not going to get involved in the thread where you are not sure what about they are talking and for which build for which device and android version. Lol.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
Yeah it's a thread for those who start to build or for those who they do that for pleasure.

The best is to stay in default Nexus Android dvp (and you must also go on the web for dirty unicorn, paranoid and few other roms)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Skittles9823:
ABC is really easy to follow if you can keep up with the thread. About the camera, just use the google camera/NX camera they work amazingly on ABC. I've been running it flr a solid month amd a half now since a week or two after bullhead Oreo came up for it amd its been flawless the whole time. Ive honestly no idea about the othee people saying its unstable.

I also post the rom updates and changelog for bullhead in a public telegram channel for anyone who doesnt want to keep up with the thread.

Can we have a link to that channel please? Thanks :)

[Nexus 5X Android Development] Skittles9823:
Ahh. Makes me think it could be a magisk thing then perhaps... I'm running Magisk 14.3 beta amd I think one of the others said they were running magisk too.

---------- Post added at 05:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 PM ----------

No worries :victory:
[Nexus 5X Android Development] 65coupei6:
I tracked my problems down to Magisk. This kernel works great!
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Skittles9823:
Did ypu just switch to SuperSU to fix it? Hopefully [MENTION=6998415]mr.ace[/MENTION] will be able to fix the problem. I'd grab logs but my pc is kinda dead at the moment so i cant grab any boot loop logs unfortunatly.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
no i don't think logs could help me i tried magisk to fix the problem but after some tests i found out that it's related to exeute *.sh files in the init.shadow.rc

unfortunately i'm not developer of the anykernel so i can't do anything at this side
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Skittles9823:
Ahh that makes sense. Quite unfortunate though.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Benjamin_L:
strangely enough EX kernel seems to work fine with magisk. Would it help to look at that? I wonder what flar2 is doing differently here so this isn't a problem for his kernel.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
Does not force encryption

Does not modify system partition

Compatible with systemless root

That's why elemental X is working with magisk.

But in all cases shadow kernel need to be fixed for other things as I got bootloops, crash, lags with shadow kernel on stock rom with supersu so dev if you see this please fix your kernel as it's the only one to be upstreamed with some other optimisations.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
His kernel has differnet ramdisk as my kernel, i'm using anykernel
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
Lags and crash?? Maybe somethings is wrong in your side if such issue happens why no body said until now? and if actually you like to help provide logs or tell me how issues you said is happening
[Nexus 5X Android Development] TheHenkGameKing:
Any chance of seeing dynamic fsync in your roms? Then you would have the perfect replacement for the kernel i am currently using (Jolla)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
It's fsync from franco i think it's newer and works better than dynamic fsync
[Nexus 5X Android Development] TheHenkGameKing:
Oh alright, i didn't know, i will try your kernel now!
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
They happend after modifying few settings in ex kernel manager like governor set to conservative , GPU set to powersave and changing frequencies.

The device reboot after moving in the street so maybe it's interfering with doze mode.

So actually I'm on franco kernel to see if the problem comes from me or your kernel but actually franco is working fine but franco is slower than your kernel...
[Nexus 5X Android Development] TheHenkGameKing:
I tried flashing the latest 4 versions of your kernel on AICP rom, keep rebooting to bootloader on first boot
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
I'm using gpu powersave + conservative without any issue

are you changed another thing in EXKM?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
supersu or magisk?

It's not compatible by magisk on ABC and AICP
[Nexus 5X Android Development] TheHenkGameKing:
I always do first boot without root solutions, and if i am right AICP doesn't have build in root.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
Bootloop happens if you don't flash supersu on custom-roms
[Nexus 5X Android Development] TheHenkGameKing:
Cool, thanks, normally i do first boot without root so i can login to snapchat, but if i flash aicp, flash jolla kernel for f2fs support, flash gapps, instal snapchat and login, wipe system, install aicp, shadow kernel, gapps, supersu root, it should work, right?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] 65coupei6:
Yes, I did. But, I was having problems with version 14. I read 14.3 beta was working OK.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
Yes it should works
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Skittles9823:
Alright yea makes sense. Also yes, 14.3 is way more stable then 14 right now.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] TheHenkGameKing:
First boot rebooted (Because of Chainfire root) Booted, saw lockscreen, it automaticly rebooted to bootloader (Pretty intresting to me) afterwards just boots normally.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
I set CPU frequencies to 960, shutdown Big cores, I activate msm thermal, core control, wq_power_saving,perfd.

I disabled fsync and I changed io scheduler to Maple and io readahead to 2048.

The bug is that the device reboot (often when walking) and one of these reboot caused that recent task and notification bar wouldn't respond anymore.

PS: I'm on stock with supersu and for tests I disabled all m'y scripts and apps who ask Root.

PS: I applied the same settings with elemental X and franco and there is no bugs.

Thanks in advance for help
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Lughnasadh:
I have been running this kernel for quite a while (have tried others as well) and it is running superbly for me, on both AICP and Screw'd (both Oreo). No crashes, lags or any other problems. Always using SuperSu.

Only lags I had were fixed with v 2.4. Keep up the great work [MENTION=6998415]mr.ace[/MENTION] :good: :) . This is a great kernel!

---------- Post added at 09:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 AM ----------

Btw, I'm not sure how many are aware, but AICP does not disable force encryption (not sure about ABC). I've also read elsewhere that there could be some potential problems using Magisk with certain kernels while being encrypted. I wonder if the people who are having reboot problems are using Magisk while being encrypted and maybe this could be the problem. Just throwing that out there....
[Nexus 5X Android Development] TheHenkGameKing:
Your thread states that it has the blu_active governor, where tf it at?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
I discovered that the bug that I'm experiencing is also happening with franco kernel but with franco kernel it's only occuring during a second after unlocking (so not disturbing it's just transform a single finger tap into a long touch but I don't know why)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] venkatsrin:
Have you tried Pixel 2 ROM?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
No I don't like the concept it's like having a miui rom in this case buy an Huawei device.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] shhnedo:
Fixed that for you.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] j1mp492:
Have the same issue as previous posters. Constant reboots on ABC ROM, can't even get past the pin code entry most times. The only other things I've flashed is Magisk v14.0 and Banks gapps, a bit disappointing since I really like this ROM, and it would've been the perfect combo with this kernel.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
Are you kidding? Please read previous messages...

You must flash supersu ans not magisk and it should work fine.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
Hey sir,

I did tests as I had bugs so I just flash your kernel with the rom and nothing else excepting facebook and messenger and after a day I have 0 bugs now.

So I arrive to the conclusion that your kernel is not compatible with one of my apps wich is probably naptime(agressive doze with root).

I told it was the fault of your kernel as this app were working with elemental X and franco kernel.

So sorry for the inconvenience and I will try greenify agressive doze.

Have a nice day ?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] j1mp492:
Sounds more like a workaround, not a solution. And I wouldn't post in the thread if I weren't serious. So there's no need for that ****. :)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
So you didn't read what the dev said about magisk not working...so sad for you...
[Nexus 5X Android Development] j1mp492:
I just quickly searched for ABC ROM and saw other people mentioning the same issues, and a post by the dev that it worked fine for him. I also got linked from the ABC thread and assumed I was on the last page, but sure. Be rude towards people in the community because they missed one post if that makes you happier, feels like your issues lies somewhere deeper though.

So if you call that "sad", so be it. Not my problem.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
As I see you are just an angry man with a sad life so I searched the answer of the dev for you.

What he answered:

no i don't think logs could help me i tried magisk to fix the problem but after some tests i found out that it's related to exeute *.sh files in the init.shadow.rc

unfortunately i'm not developer of the anykernel so i can't do anything at this side
[Nexus 5X Android Development] Benjamin_L:
It's still a bug even not with this kernel and we should fix it together not working on workarounds. Also please fix your quotes as those are not your comments.

Is there a bugtracker for anykernel or magisk and did someone already file one?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] *system error*:
It is a perfect combo. SuperSU for the win. (for my needs) This Kernel bumped me back to an average of 4.5 hours SOT. With my usage, moderately heavy with some games.

[Nexus 5X Android Development] harib12:
ANyone used this kernel in dev prev 2?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] derkleinebroicher:
Yes, me. works fine.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] harib12:
BUt ut gives error that the kernel is not compatible
[Nexus 5X Android Development] derkleinebroicher:
if you mean the message while flashing the kernel, that it is not supported, you're right. But "not supported" is something completely different from "not compatible" ?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] dado70:
Good morning guys .... sorry for the stupid question, this kernel is also compatible for 7.1.2 rom?

Inviato dalla terra della piadina...!!!
[Nexus 5X Android Development] jugoslavpetrovic:
It could be. Before I was flashing builds for O to N rom that I was having at the time and without issues. You can try but make sure before that you extract boot.img from the zip of your rom and have it somewhere in case you can't boot so you can install that boot.img as image via twrp.

Upstream updates from Linux and CAF

blu_active/relaxed/chill gov

Slightly reduced overall power consumption

Finally you add relaxed, thanks a lot bro?.

Maple + relaxed + your kernel + Android 8 and Nexus 5x is just perfect again!
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
Can you add dynamic virtual memory?

(Like in last lspeed release).
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
What's that?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
In fact , I don't know if it's a linux feature or something home made by Paget.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] mr.ace:
No, it's a app feature
[Nexus 5X Android Development] gullkhan0:
What's maple? Also, is there a big difference between relaxed & chill gov?
[Nexus 5X Android Development] :
What's the web is saying:

"Relaxed is based on chill, and has been altered in order to achieve more gradual frequency boosting providing battery life benefits. Relaxed uses a boost ceiling variable in order to achieve this. Rather than boosting straight to the max frequency, relaxed finds the difference between boost_counter and boost_ceiling, then boosts to max minus that difference. This governor doesn't completely replace chill, but is intended to be used alongside it.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] gullkhan0:
Thanks. I mostly use my phone to read (Articles, Reddit, Stories). So I guess this would be perfect gov as daily use for me.
