[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
UPDATE: Initial Android 8.1 exNoShadez-eas Kernel;

https://github.com/nine7nine/Apps/raw/master/Marlin_EXNS_eas_76888e1.zip

Changes:

- 3.18.86 LTS

- Re-based from scratch against the 8.1 kernel sources. (Literally hundreds of commits merged over a 24hr period)

- All previous Features should be included, if I missed something; let me know.

- Updated drivers, lots of bug fixes

- Binder_rt has been merged, replacing Marlin's "new" binder driver

- Some new changes to audio driver code (mostly to do with rt scheduling).

- The kernel supports WireGuard but the userspace bits aren't ready for general consumption. soon-ish.

- I fixed Wake Gestures to stop enabling Sleep2Sweep by default - it's annoying and stupid that it did that in the first place.

- Integrating a number of changes from AOSP, timekeeping, VDSO code - not user facing.

- BFQ IO scheduler is available, Maple is NOT (I'll add Maple back, it's just not critical to lighting up 8.1 support).

I haven't updated the main link yet; as I would like a few people to try it out and report back. This is all fresh and new - so regressions could be possible... That said; This kernel flies with Android 8.1's user-space, with seems better suited for Binder_rt and my kernel, in general...

NOTES:

1. TWRP is acting stupid on 8.1 - you will probably need to disable you password / lock screen to decrypt the device with twrp-3.2.0 or you could try twrp-3.1.1.0 ...

2. SuperSU may have issues with TWRP on 8.1 (as I've seen in the TWRP thread). Since I don't use SuperSU and generally don't like it - I have no advice for you. lol ...except swtich to Magisk - it's better. ;)

3. On boot / loading up android you will get a message to 'contact your manufacturer, bla bla", if using Magisk. No worries; it'll all be ok. ref; https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=74755385&postcount=1043
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
Special note:

I've just noticed that the stupid issue of something changing the default Stune value has crept back in - this will likely affect battery life - but rest-assured I will figure out how to stop it from doing that. => 1st build for 8.1 ~ and lots of things are different in the /vendor partition and how android sets itself up.... So bare with it/me... It will be fixed, sooner than later.

For now, I'm looking for stability, everything working ok - while I fix that issue and tweak a few things for when I update the OP download.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] stryker09:
Thank you for all your hard work!

I would have stayed on my Pixel XL but I had already ordered my Pixel 2 and had someone lined up to take the XL off my hands :( I had wonderful experiences with your kernel and miss not being able to flash it.

If you do end up getting a Pixel 2 and decide to work on a kernel for it, know that you will have a very eager user waiting :)
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
I'm probably going to probably disable dynamic Stuns boost, in the next build and default to powerhal.... this is because I think DST is causing excessive battery drain...may need to be reworked for 8.1

for now, after a reboot, just go into exkm.

CPU->enable perfd ... powerhal will take over. however, upon reboot the setting won't be persistent. fix in next build...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
no probz... likely I won't ever do a pixel 2 kernel. I probably will hold onto my pixel for a long while yet / by the time I upgrade; it'll be to a Pixel 3 or something... The pixel 2 is great... but not of an upgrade for me...
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] DR3W5K1:
You wouldn't happen to know the console command?
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] stryker09:
No worries :) if I can't handle my flashing itch I may just give the P2 to my other half and get a P1XL :P
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
No, not off hand - but I just just go ahead and update the flashable zip on github (same link)...

- Now Perfd will be enabled / not touched on boot

- input boosting from CPU-boost won't be enabled either.

how is the kernel working for you anyway? ... I haven't had a ton of feedback yet, but it would be helpful to know,
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aoaleman:
Thank you for keeping our device alive, nine!! :D
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] DR3W5K1:
Hopefully Ill let you know tomorrow Oreo hasn't had the pleasure of touching my hands yet. Gotta wait till wife is occupied she hates when I take on "meaningless" projects. It's goona be time consuming because got back up everything+new PC no SDK yet.
[Google Pixel XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] :
Ah, C'mon - the Pixel is only a year old! ... I think it's aging well. Honestly, the msm8998 SoC (Pixel 2, OP5, etc) isn't THAT MUCH better. They get a newer kernel and a few extra bells and Whistles, but The Pixel/XL gen1 are still great devices...

I think Google engineers are also doing a great Job; 8.0 was a nice boost from 7.x and 8.1 for a minor release - is actually pretty big once you start poking around under the hood at changes in both userspace and the kernel. I think our Pixel's have lots of live left ;)

Ah, still on 7.x ... Oreo is definitely a bit of a jump - all around much nicer, but a few minor annoyances too (but I wouldn't go back to Nougat. lol)... BTW, You don't need the SDK - if you're just flashing. You should be able to pick up fastboot and adb packaged up for whatever OS, you're running - but they need to be up-to-date, IIRC.

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] abhay009:
Will this will surely work. And Mr. Hacker said that flashing Indian deodexed zui2.1.104st using twrp Also upgrade baseband but some users reported that flashing this deodexed zui bricked their devices help me plz. What method u opted for?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] Ritik17:

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] blade4711:
Sadly I was a liite bit to fast with the BL unlock. I can't relock it by adb, but I've have to. Any idea ?

Thank you in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cam30era:
Well, first you'll need to explain how you unlocked the bootloader on a snapdragon S8+?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] blade4711:
It's done by the crom_service tool by jesse chan
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cam30era:
I never heard of it. FWIW, with a device that has an unlockable bootloader, one would use FASTBOOT, not ADB. Command is:

Fastboot OEM lock

With that said, I haven't a clue if this will work on your device.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] partcyborg:
The g9500 (the snapdragon s8 family in Hong Kong/china) is unlockable using the crom service/KIWIBIRD in steady thing.

Unfortunately I have no idea what is involved. Why do you want to relock? Did you flash something already? FYI if you are 0x1 WARRANTY_VOID you cant undo that part
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] blade4711:
My problem is, that Samsung Health is detecting " rooted device"
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] taotechad:
I'm new to Xiaomi phones. But from what I am seeing is, you have to format data Everytime you flash a rom to avoid boot loop. Is this true?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] tknguyencsu:
I only format the data when I change from global to eu rom. Within global I or within eu rom I only wipe data and it boots fine. In fact between eu roms and aosp roms like RR, Xenon,... I also only wipe data. You also have to wipe system, cache, and dalvik cache.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] el3c:
i had a similar question you might could answer? ;)

- i am on 7.11.6 global beta

- as revovery, there is twrp installed

i cant update with the update app, because i have twrp installed.

My Question: how to update without loosing my data? Just download from miui.com and flash with twrp? And which version i have to download?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] tknguyencsu:
You should first backup your 7.11.6 global to the micro sd card just in case. You can only backup system and boot. I do not think you can backup your data. However you can just wipe cache and dalvik cache then flash V9.1.1.0.NDEMIEI (MIUI9) global. You can then keep your data. If you flash the eu rom you will need to format the data. If this is the case you will lose your data plus the content in your internal memory.

---------- Post added at 11:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------

I forgot to mention. When you flash V9.1.1.0.NDEMIEI (MIUI9) global. Your twrp will be replaced by the stock recovery. Before you boot up you should backup this recovery for future use. If you ever get boot loop with the recovery you can get into fastboot then use the command "fastboot format userdata". You rom will then boot up normally.
[P3600 General] Rizzis:
Hello,

I lost my internet connection via USB, since "The Internet" dissepeared from connmgr.

I deleted some values from registry to create another one.

I need a registry key..

Could anybody who has WM6, go to registryeditor (programs->system tools->registry editor)

and then goto

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->comm->ConnMgr->Destinations->"The Internet"

and say me the Data value of "DestId" ???

It should be something like {...."numbers and letters"...}

Thanks
[P3600 General] cyron_at:
Just do a hard reset ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] marcusn:
Hi, my situation is; got a galaxy s7, the rear camera was bad, bought a new original one, stripped the phone down, fitted the camera, followed the tutorial (ifixit), put a new battery in at the same time, now rebuilt it all, (without the rear case on so can still easily take it apart again) and it wont turn on, wont go into safe mode, recovery mode, soft reset etc, tried every method, also via usb to my laptop, however it does charge, it comes up on the screen with the green battery icon and the LED light illuminates as if it is charging. Therefore, the screen is not damaged. And as far as i can see, all the connections are back joined onto the motherboard, it just wont boot up.

Also, if this makes any difference, I am running the Superman rom.

Any help would be massively appreciated as I have scowered so many websites searching for someone with a similar issue with a solution and I'm struggling, massively!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] RossTeagan:
Are you sure you have connected the battery as required and no other circuit was touched?

Also, do you have the certainty this "new" battery works? I suggest you do the next 2 things:

1. Take this battery out and connect your old one. this way you can check if the new battery is faulty.

2. If doesn't work, even after inserting again the old battery, take your phone to a local repair center. (probably you messed something up).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
I'd start by reversing everything you did until it powers on again, if it still doesn't power on with the old camera module & old battery in then start looking at other things, i'd probably start with the battery though as it is a power issue
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] marcusn:
The new battery charges and it comes up on my screen showing the green battery image charging so it is being recognised. Tried the old battery and its the same situation. I genuinely believe I didnt accidently short anything and im confident everythinf is where it needs to be. Ive just booked in to go to the samsung shop this weekend so hopefully they manage to find skmething althpugh probably end up costing a daft amount. Thanks for the replies so far
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] *Detection*:
New camera module? Did you remove it to see if it is causing the problem?

I know there are different sensors, and if the wrong one is replaced the camera won't work, not heard about it stopping the phone booting but you never know
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] marcusn:
Just taken it to the local phone repair shop, lets hope they can find something with it. Keep you updated. Thanks so far.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] tanbir29:
I have a OnePlus 5 and I'm trying to get ADB to work in my Mac OS high Sierra. I have tried multiple threads and I still cannot get it to work. Whenever I enter ./adb devices it doesn't show my device under the listed devices and was wondering if anyone can help me
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] rickysidhu_:
You don't need the ./

Just type adb devices

Also make sure you have USB debugging enabled in developer options
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] tanbir29:
thank you but I had figured out what happened. I was getting an error code so I used these adb & fastboot files in this link and it worked. https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools_r26.0.1-darwin.zip. it supposedly has a fix some people were working on. now everything works fine
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] SuDGLaD:
Hello to all,

first of all sorry for my English, i'm using google translate, I do not know if you can help me here.

I bought this jewel from Gearbest and arrived yesterday.

I would like to unlock the bootloader and root it following this wonderful guide , but I can not get into developer options, I get the error "the settings application crashed abnormally"

I wanted to do this via the toolkit, but in EDL mode the phone is not recognized, maybe because in developer options I have to select the OEM UNLOCK.

The only good thing is that it recognizes usb debugging mode (at least I think) because I see the debug notification icon.

I can not understand where it came from, I went into bootloader mode but did not release me information.

From the onscreen screen I can only provide these info:

model number zte a2017g

version android 6.0.1

kernel version 3.18.20

build number zte a2017gv1.0.0b11

baseband version th.2.0.c1.9-00050-m8996faaaanazm

The MiFlavor version is 4.0

The smartphone does not receive OTA updates. I downloaded the global version (b05) of Nougat, the update with Android started I did not find it (I renamed the rom file in update.zip and put in the root of the SD CARD). I tried through recovery mode but it does not do anything to me, it's as if the smartphone was locked in everything and for everything.

I'm doing well ? How do I update when I download the rom? Can you please help me? Is there any system to interact with this smartphone and unlock it? I do not want to keep a phone that I can not update and root it.

Thanks in advance to who will help.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] SuDGLaD:
UPDATE:

I tried to manually install the downloaded ROM, but in recovery mode it does not flash the new rom ... the phone does not even try it !!!

It's as if the phone was locked in everything and I only have to keep the installed rom.

Some idea ?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] JTruj1ll0923:
Hey I would recommend clearing the data for settings if you can. To do this go to your launcher, find the settings icon and either drag or hold down or do whatever it takes to get to the app info. I haven't used stock in a long time so idk. But then go into storage and clear data. Then go and try again.

I do have one question though. How did you get usb adb debugging enabled if you didn't get into developer options at all?

For the second half of your question you won't be able to flash anything without first unlocking the bootloader and flashing TWRP onto the device. For the devices recovery idk which one you meant, but it needs to be TWRP. Good luck!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] SuDGLaD:
Thanks to my friend, without doing anything, suddenly, he made me enter the developer options menu.

I've been able to do the rest.

Now I have the phone with unlocked bootloader, root and TWRP installed.

Do not ask me how I got the debug without going into the menu, I could not answer you ... it will remain a mystery !!!

I take advantage of your availability: can I flash the zip of the official ROM through TWRP? Or is there a risk that the phone goes into brick mode?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] JTruj1ll0923:
What rom are you trying to install? Usually you will be absolutely fine.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
You can't flash an official zip through TWRP, it will just fail. No brick.

Edit: didn't read OP lol. If you want to update, you have to flash the stock recovery (there are stock recovery flashable zips on the Download Center) then install the update, then get TWRP again. Or you can install a custom ROM (I recommend one based on stock MiFavor 5.0, I think that the best one is ADM Team V3 (the one that's not based on B13), this way you can simply download, flash in TWRP, and you'll be done
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] SuDGLaD:
Thanks :good:

Thanks mate !!

I installed the rom that you suggested to me, I find it very good, but this phone has very poor support (MiFavor).
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
Very poor support? It's going to get Android O, and it's got at least 1 update per month (officially). It's unclear whether that ROM you installed will be updated since it's based on an older version, but the latest (B13) breaks a bunch of stuff like Google Play Games, Maps, the GPS works awfully...
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] SuDGLaD:
No no ... do not get me wrong.

My reference is to rom, MiFlavor is really bad. I come from 3 Xiaomi smartphones and I can assure you is another world.

The smartphone is really nice and well balanced (apart from the just enough battery) and I would replenish it a thousand times. :fingers-crossed::good:

I was a little surprised to not find the generic SmartBar feature in this ROM. I always thought AICP was up there for features, but apart from their "Yoga time"...
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
One thing I am pretty sure I noticed when test flashing this ROM, was that it felt noticeably snappier than the other Nougat ROMs (which were not laggy to begin with)
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Krlos Eduardo:
in my opinion this is the best modded rom.

tnks [MENTION=5417899]DiamondJohn[/MENTION] !
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
I was wondering if anyone had flashed this, let alone possibly running it as a daily. For me, I really need the SmartBar feature, and I couldn't find it.:confused:

Have you noticed it is a little more snappy than other Nougat ROMs? or was it just me.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
My mistake, I saw in a video review it does have smartbar, just not where I expected to find it :o
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
New build!

I just realised, this ROM had been "left out" in my last batch of updates:o.

New build is up! See the OP

Things that have changed (That I remember ;)):

Under-clocking of CPU. Enabled down to 96kHz (from stock 384 kHz). You can thank [MENTION=420530]arrrghhh[/MENTION] for that, I took the "frequencies file" changes from his old kernel source :good:

Over-Clocking now capped to 1.7GHz (Stock 1.5GHz, previous at 1.98GHz)

Latest Security Patch (5 Dec 2017)

Numerous LineageOS bug fixes. I was surprised that code sourced from Lineage OS receives updates.:victory: A lot of these changes can be seen here: https://download.lineageos.org/xt897/changes/ (up to the date of the build)

I have not actually even test flashed this build :o, so please report back for other people's sake.:good:
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Krlos Eduardo:
[emoji22][emoji22][emoji22]
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Najam121:
Why did you reduce the Overclocking? Was there any problem wiyj 1.98ghz ?
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
Because I could;) and someone complained that it defaulted/booted to 1.98gHz

I personally never had a problem running 1.98gHz.

Why? Is it buried inside the top speaker screen? Can you only see it when holding up and looking straight into it?
[Razer Phone Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
Yeah, it's under the grill, next to the FFC.

It's hard to see unless you're looking at it straight on because it's miniscule. With it being behind the grill blocks the view beyond a very narrow field of vision.
