You're always on top of it [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] - amazing work!

Will download the April security update now, and flash the update (without -w), and TWRP/Magisk/FlashKernel.

Thanks for all your work.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Goog1e Phone:
TWRP, kernel, then magisk ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Juzman:
Haha, yeah that's what I did. My bad. All running flawlessly. :)
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] chevycam94:
Not sure what's causing it, but now random entries in the play store keep telling me there's no internet connection, whereas other entries work just fine. Could this be a kernel problem, or am issue with the April patch?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] D-m-x:
I had the same thing a few days ago with AquariOS Rom which is why it ditched it immediately. With Stock Rom a few minutes later everything worked fine. But someone in the Carbon Rom Topic mentioned it too. Not sure why that's happening.

Thanks for the heads up. I flashed the update today, and the camera behaves normally.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prattham:
Why don't we have flash rom?? [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION]

Cheers ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nathanchance:
Thanks for getting back to me, glad it's working fine now :)

Lol way too much effort plus I am content with stock
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] D-m-x:
Yeah Stock has come a long way. Few Years ago I would've doubted I would ever say that in the Future but Stock Rom is a solid Daily Driver.

It's buttery Smooth, the Battery is better than on any Custom Rom I've tried and most importantly just everything works without the need for fixes or Workarounds.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jamsoolee:
Thanks for the awesome work [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] I believe I speak for everyone here when I say we all appreciate your hard work.

On another note, your updates are so friggin' frequent, I can barely keep up, sheesh!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] def-g:
Just to clarify. Enter TWRP. Flash 2.29 then Magisk. No wipes?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prattham:
Yup

Haha i just want to tell someone the following instructions for once

Flash flash rom

Flash flash kernel

??

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:
Flash kernel 2.29 working great!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Goog1e Phone:
You know a kernel works too well when it's own thread has no activity in over 24 hours. lol

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] umx:
Flashing the Kernal over the April update and its causing the phone to no longer boot. If you try anything will just reboot into the boot loader.. Tried 2.29 and 2.30
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Goog1e Phone:
You have to flash magisk right after flashing the kernel
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] umx:
Even thou I have it flashed right now? flash it again after the kernal flash?

So flash kernal

Flash TWRP

Go into TWrp and install magik again>?

I never had to do this before. odd
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Goog1e Phone:
Flash kernel. Then magisk. You don't need to wait to go back into twrp. Just flash it back to back.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] umx:
Did the zip ver this time in twrp. past i always done the fastboot method.. Either way it worked thanks for the help
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:
Did you flash Magisk 16.3.zip?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nathanchance:
Next update will be pretty hefty ;)

Are you on a custom ROM?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] otonieru:
Whitelist EXKM from any battery saving app/mechanism. Will fix ths issue.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Nekromantik:
Anyone else finding the fast charge bug that made it charge slow until you unplug and replug a few times is back from 2.98?

It was fixed previously.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prattham:
Haven't noticed that much but device gets much noticeable hot while charging though
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] drewski_1:
I don't think you can flash TWRP in Fastboot because of the shared boot.img partition with kernel
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prattham:
[MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION] charging is slow for me again

But it isn't worse like previously it was i timed it till 75% till where it actually charges faster and even on lock screen it says more time to charge

It charges 7% in 6 mins from 44 to 51
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nathanchance:
Alright, guess I'll try to look into it. Getting really tired of all of the charging issues... :/
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] clothednblack:
Strange, seems isolated as I haven't seen any issues with fast charge, or heat problems. All good here, wonder what else (used or installed) would contribute to the problem

Running DU 12.1

Magisk

Themes

And obviously on latest flash release (unless one just showed up while typing this ?)
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prattham:
I'm on stock only if that matters

But I don't have to replug it multiple times like earlier i mentioned it, but it isn't charging the amount it should be i guess if that makes any sense

Cheers ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nathanchance:
There's been some recent changes to the dts files by Google related to charging so it may be stock behavior.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] mgear356:
Not too sure if it's flash kernel related. What happens is when

Plug in the phone

Phone tries to load Android auto

Selection for mtp / charge etc comes out

Phone blacks out and auto reboot

After reboot, can connect to Android auto

This happens almost every time. My combo was dirty unicorns with flash

For now I am on dirty uniform stock April build, no reboots. May try flash again to confirm its the kernel
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nathanchance:

Hmmm well in order to figure out what causes this, you're going to need to let me know what build it started happening on. Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to test Android Auto and you're the only person to report something like this.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Dark_Eyes_:
I've been using Android Auto a lot with many version of Flash kernel and never had any issues. I used it yesterday with v2.29 and all good. I'm on stock ROM with xposed.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] micmars:
[FWIW, flashing Walleye on Taimen didn't work, so why didn't you recommend this?]

Awesome update, Ninja.

FYI, you've put a damper on the latest Donations for Diffident Devs (D3) event.

F-it, not my problem.

Now, you were mentioning your favorite custom rom for Taimen.

Go ahead then.

Fast charge not working here. Not sure if it is Aquarius Rom or this kernel. Flashed back to aquarius stock and still slow charging?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] D-m-x:
You anwered your own Question then!?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sublimaze:
I never noticed issues with fast charging on 2.29.

I just flashed 2.30, and it shows "charging rapidly" on stock ROM + rooted + Magisk 16.0
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] techlogik:
Just installed Nitrogen Rom, Magisk 16.3. Showing slow charging without any custom kernel.

Stock Rom rooted with 16.3 Magisk never had the issue. Not sure with others running custom Roms. Annoying to say the least.

Stock charger and cable.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] JaylanPHNX:
I've had this happen twice. I'm running stock with Flash kernel and Magisk. Plug it into my car, and sudden reboot.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:
On Stock 9.0. haven't noticed any charging issues with Flash ever, including 2.29! Probably an aosp issue.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jlokos:
This issue has been addressed before. On AOSP, it doesn't show fast changing on the screen, but it actually is fast charging (even though it says slow charging). I've had no issues with Android Auto with flash kernel.

Nathan, thanks for the update, I tried flashing flash

Kernel on a couple of custom roms but when I rebooted, it rebooted to bootloader. I solved it by flashing the Google factory image to both partitions. Then I flashed the kennel and it booted up fine.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] clothednblack:
It shows "Rapid charging" on the lockscreen on DU and its AOSP based.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bigknowz:
Just had the same reboot issue with 2.29 running Stock April, had not happened before. Upgrading to 2.3 and trying Auto in a bit. Will report back if issue persists,
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jlokos:
Wouldn't you know it, one that I hadn't tried with flash. Thanks for the heads up.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nathanchance:
Well if someone wants to tell me when the Android Auto issue started, I have time today to sit down with people and churn out builds to find the cause.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Nekromantik:
My issue with charging is not about lockscreen showing "fast charging" but that on first plug in of charger it gives a 3 or 4 hour charge time and then after you unplug and replug a few times it drops to usual 1 hour and 40 to 1 hour and 50.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bigknowz:
Auto

All is well with 2.30, 2 trips in the car and no issues, Maybe the EAS revert fixed?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] chazall1:
Thanks for the great work

2.30 working great here.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] State.of.mind:
2.30 is working well. Have any of you experienced any errors with screen shots?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] semakawa:
+1. Same here with DU. No problem at all with fast charging.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] laxattack:
It started for me on 2.23, I thought it was from me running Jan update build of stock rom, so I didn't think anything of it.

PS: It was also happening when I plugged into anything that was reading for USB debugging ie: Android Auto, My Computer, and my drone controller.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] mgear356:
From my test I was on dirty unicorns rc20 March build, and yes I am on magisk 16.0

Flash was from 2.2x all the way till 2.28.. Yet to try 2.29 and 2.30 to see if this reboot issue is there.

So far on fresh install april official dirty unicorns, + magisk 16.3 no reboot.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] trizzv:
I'm able to take a screenshot/edit/share just fine on 2.30
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sublimaze:
Errors taking screenshots, or viewing them?

I've never had problems taking or viewing screenshots on *any* version of Flash kernel. Open the Photos app, tap Albums, and screenshots should be there.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Cbass15:
I have also had this problem. Not sure what the issue is.

Says unable to save screenshot.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] State.of.mind:
Yeah.. I'm not sure what it is. I also have Xposed installed
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Cbass15:
Same here! Might be something with xposed then.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ram4ufriends:

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] murphyjasonc:
I haven't had any issues with Android Auto or anything else with anything reading the USB. I've been running Flash Kernel from the first release. Everything else is stock and rooted with Magisk 16.3. I'm only running a couple of modules( V4A, Vanced You Tube and Active Edge module.) No issues with fast charging either. It shows up on the lock screen as fast charging and only takes about an 1 hour and 40 minutes from 20% to full.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] EnIXmA:

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] JaylanPHNX:
Are you losing any settings or other data when this happens? I've only had it happen twice, but both times my Bluetooth connections were wiped.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Seanzle:
This happened to me when I disabled zram. It rebooted and I lost all my settings. Enable zram and everything will be fine
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] laxattack:
I am not losing any settings with the reboot, and I have not disabled zram
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] chikimonke:
I have zram disabled without issue.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] desolateone1:
I've also had the issue with Android Auto since the March update and 2.23. I'd say it happens every 1 in 4 or 5 times I plug my phone into my car.

I've had my settings wiped a few times. Most of the time they don't get wiped out.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] cognitivedissonance:
Hi all, I'm sorry for the [likely stupid] question, but I've seen relatively recent comments indicating to use the flash order TWRP -> Kernel -> Magisk, but the Magisk instructions seem to indicate you should go TWRP -> Magisk -> Kernel (it literally says "If you plan to flash a custom kernel, flash it AFTER installing Magisk.") I've just unlocked my phone and flashed to the April factory image, and I want to make sure I get the next steps right.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] greyhd:
TWRP then kernel then Magisk.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nathanchance:
Magisk patches the kernel binary so it needs to be flashed after the kernel.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prattham:
I think someone else also posted but i too have trouble with screenshots it just says saving and that's it
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] pkgnex:
I'm having no problems with screenshots. Latest stock ROM (April), Magisk 16.3, Flash 2.30.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] xflowy:
jep me too. wouldnt relate this to flash kernel though. probably xposed or sth since everyone who posted this (at least afaik) had it installed.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sublimaze:
For anyone having screenshot issues, disable all Xposed modules, reboot, then try to take a screenshot. If you can take screenshots, then one of your Xposed modules is the culprit.

I am running Flash 2.30 + Magisk 16.0, Xposed is *not* installed, and screenshots work fine.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Prattham:
Weird screenshot work fine after i fc android system

How do we get Magisk to update their instructions?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
As in what way?? I mean the original magisk thread has several instructions and trouble shooting guides ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sirxdroid:
There's some confusion about the flash order, kernel first or Magisk first. From Magisk main thread:

Perhaps it works both ways and it doesn't matter?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
Not really. It's been posted many many times that you flash the kernel first, and then magisk. Reason being, magisk has to patch the kernel to allow root :good::cool:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sirxdroid:
OK, that's what I've been doing. So let's get Magisk to fix their instructions too ...
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Az Biker:
I'll reach out to the maintainer of the Magisk thread(s) and request that they verify that their posted flashing order, and installation methods are correct.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Ghisy:
Hey [MENTION=6842057]nathanchance[/MENTION], how do you enable the wake-up gestures on your kernel? I'm guessing I should use Kernel adiutor or the same kind of app?

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Freak07:
I’d recommend ex kernel manager app for this :)
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:

Hi, I'm using 2.29 since it came out. I was on 2.23 before. Comparing these 2, 2.23 was a bit softer on the battery also it maybe was a bit cooler but not sure as the weather became warmer so it might be related. Last thing on 2.29 90%-100% charging takes too long compared to previous ver the rest seems the same. Stock rom flash k rooted.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] greyhd:
I have actually seen better battery life on 2.30 than 2.23, 2.29 is in line with 2.30 as well. Check to see all your apps are up to date or any apps you added since 2.23.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Taebom:
Been using 2.30 since release and everything is running fine. Temp is at 104°F. What's everyone else who had higher heat temp come out to?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
I rarely get above 85F even under heavy loads. Then again, I've never had any issues with overheating with Flash kernel :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] arvylas:
I doubt this is an app issue. I actually have uninstalled some of the apps I had with 2.23 and also I went directly from 2.23 to 2.29. The only other thing is 2.23 was with March update and 2.29 with April.

Is there a way to control lowest brightness? I want to make it higher.

When I try to flash the Kernel it doesn't boot. I flashed it this way

1. RR 2. TWRP 3. FlashKernel 4. Magisk

Do I need to flash it to both Partition ( A and B ?) or what could be the problem?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
Do steps 1 & 2 first. Let it boot up, then go back and do steps 3 & 4 :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] drdrewdown:
b/c of A/B you cannot flash the kernel/magisk in the same session as the ROM/TWRP. There's 2 ways to handle it

1) Flash ROM+TWRP reboot recovery (this switches active slot after flashing a rom, which is needed to flash kernel/magisk that doesn't touch slots in twrp)

2) Flash ROM+TWRP boot ROM once, come back into TWRP & flash kernel/magisk
