[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]: I instantly bought your app, since you began developing your kernel for the OP3. Well... never had the chance before, because we used different devices... so... yeah. Even if I had to decide between you and eng.stk... Jesus, that sounds so bad... I'm constantly switching between your kernel and the one from eng.stk. Before I run into something I don't mean so: I really appreciate your work and will ever do. And what you included into your kernel is unbelievable and outstanding.

I can bake a kernel for my Linux system - no problem. But there are differences between just cherrypicking and real developing you do.

So, to end this: flar2 is like every developer: Building primary for himself. And after releasing his work for us all, he shared something, he believes to be the best. Not because of fame. Not because of money. Sharing knowledge and something, he wants to give to us. XDA once was a place, we were glad to get something. Not demanding. I won't name anyone, because nowadays, we mostly all do. It's somehow tolerated now. But shouldn't be the common way. If something is broken: Bring a logcat. If something isn't here anymore that once was included: Ask for it and accept the very first answer from the dev. If you want something: Think twice, if this will fit as a feature for this project. I think, that was necessary to say - at least for me.

Thanks again [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] for all your time, work and efforts.

would be nice to have "ElementalX-OP6-x.x.zip" name when file has been downloaded instead of "ElementalX-x.x.zip"
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
rename it if it's what you prefer, some users (not saying it's the case) are not aware that those files can easily be renamed without issues.

many devs and users have their naming systems while i, like you, prefer and always include the device name or shortcut ;) :highfive:

What actually apply on boot option do in ex kernel manager app
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] MickyFoley:
[MENTION=7878550]Manivannan9444[/MENTION]: Every option you change, will get reverted on rebooting your phone. If you tick "Apply on boot", this setting / these settings will get applied again automatically after each boot.

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] MickyFoley:
[MENTION=9171944]SpectraFun[/MENTION]: Could you please be a bit more precise? Display in regular settings? Ex Kernel Manager? If settings from phone: What did you try to change? Just opening display settings? Just asking, because all is working fine on my end. Did you have Avengers theme applied before?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] SpectraFun:
Yes i have use Avengers theme before. I mean the Display Settings in the Settings Menue from Oneplus. Whene i enabeld in Ex Kernel i get no fc in Settings Menue.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] MickyFoley:
Enable Avengers theme via Ex Kernel Manager and go into settings. Set your theme to default, dark or light. Then disable Avengers Theme again in Ex Kernel Manager. This should do the trick. If the theme is applied, but not turned on via EXKM, then you probably have the problem. You can also do via terminal emulator following:

su
echo '0' > /sys/module/param_read_write/parameters/cust_flag

Latest version not running on custom validus rom 8.1 licence check.....

Never mind, update my Playstore and running fine
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] marko94:
Where you found validus?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] abalam:
In testing, soon:laugh:
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
well then troubleshoot, starting to find the culprit, no fc here and most probably not many places else, else the thread would be full of it.

not a kernel issu but either rom, mod apps or a combo of all of them. it's called user space and has to be managed by each user

alone, depending on his setup.

further, even should a bug like this ever occur, without logs is doesn't happen. make a log and post it so that others can see what triggers your

problem.

sometimes an improvement can make recent imperfect setups stop working, just throw a stone into a ship's diesel and do the same with a race car engine and see what happens and then judge which engine is more sophisticated LOL just a little example to prevent the conclusion that what was working before must be better.

A quick update with the latest changes from OnePlus

Flash directly with the latest EX Kernel Manager: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flar2.exkernelmanager

Download (OxygenOS Android 8.1.0):

ElementalX-OP6-1.12.zip

Changes:

-OnePlus updates (OxygenOS 5.1.9)

I did!!

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] MickyFoley:
It's because the app want's a kernel named ElementalX-OP6-1.12. But the kernel is named ElementalX-1.12 after flashing. Maybe some XML conflict at the update-site, flar2 forgot to update it to the new name. Not a big problem :). Just ignore it for now.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
confirmed

and the error message upen boot is back while i can't tell whether one of my other mods is causing this, no big thing anyways, just mentioning it because

it first happend with first kernel version and then was resolved kernel side as far as i know.

could well be that there was a change in 5.1.9. vs. 5.1.8 that makes the workaround not working for now.

else working great on 5.1.9 with magisk, xXx and xposed + gravity box

Hey, does anyone have any screen calibration settings they'd like to share?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] audiovicious:
I'm not seeing an error message, but I don't flash updates through TWRP. I always let the Android system handle it then just boot into TWRP from fastboot and go the usual install route for TWRP and Magisk.

I've yet to encounter an error that way. I almost just flashed through TWRP to save myself the trouble, but I like to let OOS handle installing the updates just in case TWRP doesn't handle it properly (I dunno why it wouldn't, maybe my own paranoia.) This process just feels "cleaner" to me. I'm sure TWRP does the job fine, but I just assume OOS knows what to do best with OOS updates.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
That's exactly it, I should have renamed the kernel ElementalX-OP6-1.12. Next time.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] MickyFoley:
[MENTION=5372360]magnamentis[/MENTION] and all others having troubles with the error message popping up again:

This should be an error, caused by flashing Magisk 16.6. Solving is pretty easy:

Common way after updating OOS:

• Boot to recovery and flash Magisk 16.6

• Flash ElementalX

• Reboot to system

• Open Magisk Installer > Make sure, both options are checked (Preserve force encryption & Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity) > Install Magisk again via Magisk Installer (Direct install) > Reboot

It's already confirmed, that Magisk 16.6 is the reason of it. Maybe something new to include to custom kernels - dunno.

Can not Download the update from manager, keeps saying download fails on both from download zip or flash zip

Any ideas?

I've downloaded it from this thread the new update, and flashed it through twrp, but need it to work on the manager
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] MickyFoley:
[MENTION=6065510]firozpatel[/MENTION]: Did you check the permission for storage for EXKM? Could also be, that flar2 already solved it, because he fixed the everlasting "there is an update" issue :). Simply check the permission for storage and try it again. Should work. Tested by myself: Everything OK.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] firozpatel:
Permission for storage was already set and is allowed but failed to download still

I don't think I can try now anyway untill another update comes as I flashed the file of this forum through twrp
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] MickyFoley:

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] firozpatel:
It's worked! Haha okay as you know about the manager, could you tell me how to activate the usb fastcharge please
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] MickyFoley:
This would be difficult up to impossible, because this feature isn't even included :). I tested this feature with blu_spark, but it didn't work (tested with my Muker® J7 USB Multimeter). So flar2 for sure has reasons to not include it (yet). And I'm not asking for the reasons, because he really knows better than me.

Ik need help.

Ik updated from 5.1.8 to the latest 5.1.9 OOS then updated to the latest kernel from you.

But i had the Avengers theme enabled, now i cannot enable it again and i cannot open my display menu because it crashes(probably due to Avengers being enabled in elemental settings and disabled in Oos when i flashed a new update).

Can someone Tell me what Steps to take?

Perhaps a settings file that i open in notepad or something.

Every other settings menu works besides display.

Try to enable Avengers Theme in EX Kernel Manager, set the stick on reboot and reboot. If it doesn't work, try flashing ElementalX 1.11, apply default theme and reboot. Then flash the last version, reboot, enable Avangers Theme in EX Kernel Manager then apply it in settings.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Pixelhouse:
You Sir are a lifesaver! The 2nd options worked!

Sorry for my noob mistake, i come from Franco kernel so it's my first day using it.

One finale question so the power icons next to each setting means it gets saved upon reboot when it's lit up?

I cannot seem to find ant Documentation of what their function is.

Thanks in advance.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] sasho36:
Yes, the "power" icon is a save on reboot.

Hi guys! I just purchased the EX kernel app and installed the kernel successfully.

I'm new to this, please don't skinn me for my questions. I'm not aiming to get my phone super fast ('cause it already is :D ) or get the ultimate battery life - just a well balanced setup. :)

Is there any guide on how to set up / tweak the kernel? Are there some existing profiles which I can apply?

Or do you have any tipps & tricks for specific settings / tweaks for me?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Adam_Conway:
I recommend the settings in post #2! I'm using them, battery life is excellent.

Only thing I did was drop the boost duration to 1000ms instead of 1500ms.

Hello guys, I just recieved my OP6(8GB@128GB) two days ago, when I first start out of the box it shown me an update to OxygenOS 5.1.8 (I made it).. after few hours I see this phone has a HUGE battery drain, I can't get more than 4h SOT and after I pluged out from charger my phone discharged with 6% in 4 mins.. and battery drain per night is 15%-18%.. Now I have OxygenOS 5.1.9 and I have the same problem.. This phone discharges too fast.. I want to put ElementalX Kernel, I had this kernel on my old phone(Nexus 5) and WAS GREAT!! Can anyone tell me if this kernel should improve my battery life? I see people with 8-9 SOT..Or should I wait for OxygenOS 5.1.0 I understand this will "fix" battery drain.

Thanks:)

[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] Just want to send a big thank you for the amazing work you're doing with this kernel. You're a great developer.

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] iElvis:
Heavy battery drain is a rom issue not a kernel issue. In all likelihood, your new phone needs to settle down a few days. Sometimes incremental updates can cause issues. I would recommend doing a wipe and clean flash of 5.1.9. That, or use an app like BBS to see if you have rogue app or process causing drain.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Depressed T.Bear:
Thank you very much :) I'm trying that.

What about CPU & GPU governors and I/O scheduler? Any good proposals? :cyclops:

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Depressed T.Bear:

Hi! So I just purchased the ex kernel manager app to go along with the kernel but the changes I make doesn't stick or apply after a reboot. Any ideas? I've ticked the option to the right of the settings.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] peltus:
Are you properly rooted? No magisk issues? More info on your setup?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Depressed T.Bear:
So, quick response after a couple of hours testing ElementalX (latest version). I didn't had the time to test everything, but 2 features are not working so far:

1)

Deactivating of vibration of gestures.

I really like using the gestures on the OnePlus 6, but the vibrate-feedback doesn't turn off, even if selected.

2)

Color Control.

No matter what I set, nothing changes. I even tried to save a profile with changed settings, set to apply on boot, rebooted. Nothing.

The only thing which changes, without doing anything - opening EX Kernel Manager triggers it - is that the colors immediately become "washed-out", some kind of muted colours.

The only solution to become natural (maybe vivid) colors back, is to go to device settings -> display -> screen-calibration --> "any profile" -> then "standard". It's kinda annoying to do it every time I want to change sth in EX Kernel Manager...

All the other functions I tested so far are working and applied immediately after changing.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] senny22:
Properly rooted with magisk 16.0 and everything else is working fine. Stock OOS 5.1.9. Dunno what else there is to say.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
Disable gesture vibration works for me.

The color settings only work if you select adaptive mode or custom color in the display settings.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
I've heard some users mention an advanced battery optimization setting that prevents boot services from running.

Everything applies on boot for me and I cannot find the setting they are talking about.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] KnifeFed:
The setting is under Settings -> Battery -> Battery optimization -> Three-dot menu in upper right corner.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Depressed T.Bear:
Hey, thanks sir.

Do you need some kind of log to fix it?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
it's also not a rom issue but all user space
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] R3VX:
Is it me or is my phone slower now?

Stock kernel got higher scores in 3dmark, even in performance mode
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
It's you.

Benchmarks are completely meaningless unless you know how to interpret them.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
There's nothing to fix, it works, I've tested it repeatedly.

What are all your settings around gestures?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] R3VX:
Don't get me wrong i love your work, been using the kernel for a while now.

But i just went ahead and flashed a different kernel and got way higher scores.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
Which shows that you have no understanding of the factors that affect benchmarks.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] BRANDENDEUCE:
Newest OOS and newest version of the kernel. I've had about ten reboots today. Any suggestions on how to get an idea of what is going on?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] R3VX:
I do, it's mostly the clock speeds at which my device is running.

It's okay tho, it's clear that your kernel is more battery optimized instead of performance.

Numbers do the talking :)

I've ran some games also just to be sure it wasn't just 3dmark.

And i get lower fps with ex.

Too bad you're being so butthurt over a simple question tho, disrespectfull behavior coming from a dev.

While i was being respectfull all the time without degrading your work or acting like a brat.

Have a nice day ;)
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] audiovicious:
I will never understand the value some people place on an arbitrary number. I haven't benchmarked this phone on any OS or kernel, because it doesn't matter. When people don't even understand it and just place all their stock in it being bigger, or when it's lower actually sometimes convincing themselves they can see some difference.

Sure, the number isn't entirely arbitrary, but if you don't understand it, don't waste your time obsessing over which number is higher. The phone is fast enough and performs well enough for me to give any care to what it benchmarks.

If you can see a difference and you know what you're doing, then tweak around it if you care. Otherwise, I see people care far too often without even knowing what it is and it really baffles me.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
Reinstall the factory image. If the issue persists, factory reset your phone.

It's way easier to start fresh than try to figure out what in your system is screwed up.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
I'm not hurt at all. Nor am I trying to offend you, but you really haven't a clue what you're talking about and your original post was a bit snide.

The code is the code and I have not optimized for battery or performance. It's identical to stock in terms of performance.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] R3VX:
well obviously something isn't adding up.

stock rom 5.1.9 with your kernel doesn't perform as well as stock or the other ones i've checked.

maybe u missed something, after all it's us users that should report things so it'll get fixed or checked upon.

As i've said before i respect your work, or else i wouldn't have used it on all my devices so far, nor would i buy your apps.

Not sure if i can mention it or not, but i've tested stock kernel and the smurf one afterwards just to make sure.

Just run some tests yourself please instead of saying i'm some novice who doesn't know anything.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Depressed T.Bear:
I also tested more intensiv and now I know where's the culprit.

I'm using the navigation gestures instead of the onscreen home / recent / back buttons. And I thought that the option would allow me to turn of the vibration for this (which it doesn't).

But, the vibration of e.g. Sweep2wake can be successfully toggled on and off.

:cyclops:

Problem solved I'd guess.

But one more question, where can I find some guides for optimized settings for your kernel? I found plenty of sites for the nexus devices, but they have different things like a CPU governor 'elementalx' which we obviously don't have.

I'd be grateful for any tips! :)
