Hey [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION], im not one for asking ETAs on xda, since i respect the fact that devs have a life. :)

But i was just wondering if you have had any thoughts about the universal finger print gesture mapping inclusion on the paid EXKM app i mentioned a while ago.

I would really appreciate your input on how feasible it would be to implement and if you would kindly take a look into making it a reality.

Again, big fan of your app (hence i support it) and your kernels that you so kindly share with us, been rocking it for years. :D
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] :
That would make sense.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] CarlosCPL:
Camera ok

Fantastic kernel, good battery
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] bramhc:
I can't get EX Kernel Manager set my setup on boot after every reboot. No offense, but I finally use Franco Kernel Manager and it works. Anyone has notice same experience?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
EX Kernel Manager works fine for me. You may need to exempt it from battery optimization.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] HTC Tytn user 188:
Is this best kernel if the thing I need to oem rom is ability turn off battery led? I will install magisk too, because I need adaway.

EDIT: Do I need to buy EX Kernel Manager to change those things like battery led or can it be done without it too?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] tunerskynet:
:rolleyes:
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
for the umpteenth time this is the only kerrel without issues, and if there ever was an issue it was fixed within the hour.

it takes some other devs a week or two to admit there is an issue even though dozens of pages report the same problem, just a pity that

this kernel has never been available for LOS based roms for my nexus 6 while luckily we got one good kernel for it recently ;)

if one needs a kernel with useful features and close to zero issues ever it's been EX for years.

has to be mentioned from time to time and can't be done where it's most needed haha...

thanks for the great job over all this years [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]

Update!!!

This update removes LED control and headphone gain for the 6T, since it doesn't have those things. There is no change for OP6 users, so no need to flash this unless you want the latest version number.

Flash directly and control all options on this and other kernels with the latest EX Kernel Manager: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flar2.exkernelmanager

Download (OxygenOS Android 9):

ElementalX-OP6-3.03.zip

Changes:

-updates for 6T
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] :
The update doesn't affect me at all being on the OP6, yet I still feel like a child in an icecream store getting to flash a new update.

Keep up the great work! ?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Depressed T.Bear:
Same here. I feel there's 'something wrong' when ExKM tells me there's an update... So, for the sake of my mind: Gimme the higher version number! :D
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] EVOW00:
Installed this kernel today and played around a bit. Looks great.

Now I'm looking for the best settings or profile to use for oneplus6

What should I use?

Read something about ghostpepper but can't find any settings.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nickpapeir:
I am wonder this myself.Is FIOPS or CFQ better for smoothness and perfomance ?

In addition if we enable GPU Turbo will it affect battery life ?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] ilininja:
I am wondering the same thing ! What governor is better for battery life ? Performance ? Since the governors performance and battery saver are not suitable for day to day use.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] spartan268:
Umm. Ghostpepper is a thing back during the Nexus 5X/6P days and LG G4 for those gutsy fellows. There's no such thing as these fancy named profiles (Ghostpepper, Glasscannon, Butterfly, Hawktail etc) anymore.

Right now the default governor settings are fine as it is. Back during the Interactive SC810 days it was more needed due to the way Interactive worked (timer based).

FIOPS has been the default for some time now so he left it as is. We're using flash based storage so it's all negligible. Personally I just left it at FIOPS since it seems build on the gaps found inside CFQ and is geared towards flash based storage. It's supposedly the most balanced option. Give https://xdaforums.com/general/general/ref-to-date-guide-cpu-governors-o-t3048957 a read if you want to learn more.

Don't know about GPU boost.

The default SchedUtil is the best at the moment for almost all situations. I cannot see any reason to changing it.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
fiops + >2048 readahead

highspeed TCP Congestion

fsync disabled, has the greatest effect on performance without the cost of battery usage but then there is a tiny risk to loose some data, hence keep backups, never needed it but it's recommended

stune boost _ you find the tutorial how to do it in this thread, just search for it and follow the steps.

Can I install this kernel when I have blu spark kernel already installed?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Tomatot-:
Yes, just flash the kernel and reboot.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] ricardowec:
No pico glitch either ?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] KnifeFed:
So you're saying that "Readahead kb" should be set to greater than 2048, i.e. 4096?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] HTC Tytn user 188:
bump
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Superguy:
Try it and see if it works for you.

For the free version of ExM, I believe there are ads and a few features will be locked out, but otherwise, it'll work.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
i should habe used equal or greater but it''s not really relevant whether you choose 2048 or 4096 or whathaveyou. anything significantly >512 default helps.

i do that for years consequently while opinions have been split in the past, only thing i know is that i never face all the issues others do, neither lags nor battery drains etc. and at the end of the day i don't care which of my settings is responsible as long as there are zero issues and it's better than default ;)

i currently use 2048kb but it's more depending on a mood and on the hardware than relevant in. some older devices i own it is but not with this device, difference is not longer distinguishable due to the extremely high base performance level.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] HTC Tytn user 188:
I did not see free version of ex kernel manager in play store? Do you mean I dont even need this kernel to do that so I can just use that app to do what I need?

What does "LED settings" in this kernel mean? Also if I am correct I can just open bootloader, install twrp, root the phone and install this kernel and next time when OTA comes I need to download it and install it in twrp and right after it flash root, this kernel and everything will work?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
switching battery LED light of is mostly a rom feature

no kernel app can tweak features (functions) that are not available in the kernel

that should answer your questions, i'd search for the battery light switch in the rom settings, i've never seen any rom that doesn't have it

i'm on stock 9.0.2 and there it's under:settings>display>blink light, switch it off.

if it's off and you need to tweak it kernel side you can try kernel adiutor app from the playstore, it usually reads kernel features and

let's you tweak available featues with few special exceptions.

-fix fingerprint not working with all gestures disabled on 6T
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] HTC Tytn user 188:
I want the led to be on and allways light up when notification comes (not the blinking one which is only option in stock rom), but when I put phone to charger I dont want to see light burning on blue color. Every custom rom I have ever used have had some issues. They work fast at beginning, but slows down very fast. So do you mean that Kernel adiutor could some how fix that? I am little confused about that part which I blacked. First you say its rom thing, but next you say kernel app cant tweak features that are not in avaible in kernel? SO if I install this kernel I could fix the led with app, because this kernel have "led settings" what ever it means even rom does not?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
for this is switch system feature off and use lightflow. i use lightflow since many years and generally try to replace any feature with renown well developed apps.

reason is that thsi way i'm not dependent on OS and ROM makers and simply have to restore the backup on any device and rom, perfectly setup to my liking.

if you now find a way to make it work with stock, the next update can brake it, each his own but i don't like that and choose apps for feature to the maximum extent possible, not only LED, alos for gestures, PIE, recents and all kinds of stuff that rom devs and OEMs like to kill or change all the time ;)
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] HTC Tytn user 188:
So lightflow is only program to do that? Light manager or such are not able to do it so I have my doubt. I also would use app, but until now everybody have told me its not possible.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] bramhc:
I found that if you enable wq_powersaving (CPU), the battery holds up a bit longer, and didn't reduce the performance at daily uses, which is great! You still have that smoothness but with a little bit longer battery life.

(I haven't test playing heavy/intensive graphics game, cause I'm not a gamer. Just a casual Ludo & 8 Ball Pool).
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] minscetbou:
Light manager can do it with the hex code 00001.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] HTC Tytn user 188:
Can you explain me some more about that? When I have tested those programs they have had no effect on the led burning while charging.

Is this a first time flash or you upgrading? Are you doing this within TWRP or inside the EX kernel manager?

Pie? Oreo?

Magisk installed I hope?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] minscetbou:
Open light manager, battery and tune as my screenshot.

I've tried with TWRP and even by EX Kernel Manager but this is always this error. Yes, Magisk is installed and i'm on Pie 9.0.2
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
a) i never said that lightflow is theONLY one but by far the best when it comes to 10 or 20 different devices from different brands

furhter it does per app sounds backed up and importable in 1 second for each new device or clean install

it does screen flashing repeat sounds vibes per app, and a whole bunch more than just lights and you need to download from dev's site because of new google API restrictions that

set some minor but still annoying limits to all apps that make use of certain notifications and accessibility features. (rootet users have still some advantages but now 100% like before)

b) if i tell you that lightflow does it (because have it in use and it works) and you tell me that you don't believe because you

. don't like the answer i suggest that you either live without lights working the way you want or look for help elsewhere.

if i have to send you a video with my lights working in full you have to pay me and my hourly fee is heavy on most. :cool:

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] HTC Tytn user 188:
I did not completely understand you text. So you mean when I copy those settings and then put phone to charger there is no led on?

I have tested many diffrent programs and also here many people have told that programs like light manager does not work. It is not my opinion. I dont care which program works or how much they cost. There is only two things I want. That allways when notification comes there is led on and when I plug the phone in charger no led is on. All other things are just pros, but this far people have came to say to me that this and that program works. Then I have told them they are not working, they have tested them their selves and came back to me told they were wrong. I tested lightflow legacy and it did not work, but I did not know that hex code thing back then.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] spartan268:
I would try going back to the stock boot.img and reflash Magisk and all that good stuff.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Lord. Tech:
[MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION], Hey bro, did you get time to take a further look into it yet? You mentioned accessibility but that was right off the bat, I'm sure a dev of your caliber has many tricks up his sleeves given the right amount of time to research on the topic :D

I Know you must be busy, but I'd be grateful for your serious thoughts on it. :good:

Ps for some reason my PM are not working since a week or else i'd have preferred to PM instead of bumping my own msg here. Apologies for that.

Hi guys, might of been answered before, but when I reboot I have to check all the settings to work even though I pressed the power icon to work upon reboot, but it's not working

Any ideas
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] iJiB:
Yes, this has been answered many times. Try disabling battery optimization for the EX Kernel Manager app.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] :
Hey mate,

I've been having some issues getting these values to stick from time to time, more often than not.

Have you (or anyone else) got any insight into this one?

Note: Battery optimisation is off for Ex Kernel Manager.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
I have no problems with apply on boot on any of my devices. Something must be preventing the service from running.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] :
Apologies, I don't mean with sticking upon boot, I'm having issues with them sticking while the device is running. I could apply the settings right now and check back on it in an hour and find some of them reverted.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
Something else is changing them. EXKM will not change anything unless you ask it to.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] :
I figured as much. Being new to the world of Android finding the common denominator is proving to be a bit of a task in more than just this issue.

Thanks for the help anyway.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] magnamentis:
wrong pretense and wrong attitude

it's working and you can easily assume that from the comments on the matter

that means that you are doing something wrong, second tweaking app, knowingly or not, or something else.

now as it was already mentioned you have to find the culprit by either.

- proper troubleshooting, there are many tutorials how to troubleshoot software issues, especially unaccounted for issues

- providing logs for devs and able users to find what hints or points at the culprit.

there are no miracles nor are there curses in the tech-world, each and every result has a cause and if a cause it a bug, all or at least many

users have it.

this is not the case here, hence the above said applies.

last but not least you are stating that you are new tho this, that alone should make you humbly reading and searching before making

remarks that imply discontent, it's all physics and maths and we have to deal with their laws. the denominator is very very common

as far as facts are concerned but will never be as far as more than a single human is concerned.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] :
You've completely misconstrued what I said. I'm not even sure how you got to the outcome you did. :confused:

I was agreeing with flar2 about the app not having any issues.

My mention to common denominator is about other issues I'm currently having with my device, not related to this kernel or the app.

None of what I said was meant in a hostile or negative way towards the developer, I am a heavy supporter of the developer and their work.:good:
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
If it is CPU settings that are changing, that is probably the system itself changing them.

Before I fire this up, can I just get some clarification about flashing Magisk after flashing ElementalX using this temporary TWRP please? I am currently rooted using the patched boot image method detailed here, so would I need to flash Magisk again using the temporary TWRP? Thanks in advance.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] eroigaps:
I was also rooted with the patched boot.img, and I flashed latest magisk beta after kernel zip. Worked like a charm!

Personally I don't think I'll go for proper twrp install before it's stable with backup/restore fully functional.

Brilliant, thanks for your input. Going to give this a shot tonight so I'll report back after. :good:

how is the battery backup with this kernel? anyone? stats?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Vodderz:
Just flashed it all, took about 2 minutes in total and it all works! Thanks for your guidance.

Kernel does not really have that big of an impact on battery. Believe it or not!
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] carlos67:
Ok, so I'm really scratching my head wondering where to go next :confused:

I simply cannot get magisk to install. It seems to install ok in temporary twrp recovery with no error messages. I flashed Elemental kernel first and that was successful, then I flashed the magisk zip file and that seemed to flash ok. I then rebooted to system and kernel was installed but magisk showing as not installed in magisk manager app :eek:

I have tried EVERYTHING under the sun to try and get it to work but I cannot get magisk root installed for the life of me. BTW I've been flashing and modding for donkeys years across many different devices but this has floored me. I'm beginning to wonder if I'll ever get root on this phone. I would be extremely grateful to anyone who can help me to get magisk properly installed. My bootloader in unlocked and my device is encrypted (I ran the adb command adb shell getprop ro.crypto.state and it showed I was encrypted)

Stock OOS 5.1.5

Help! :(

Edit: I've tried rebooting after install, disabling usb debugging/re-enabling, allowing magisk permission to install apps, wiping cache/data and re-installing different versions of magisk manager app)
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] boydivalor99:
Flashed sucessfull. I've some doubts and one problem :

1) Just did it at current boot partition, did not restart to the other and applyed.. Needed? Pros & Cons?

2) Will it receive OTA update and should flash using it? Note: I dont have twrp, just used the temporary twrp boot img from previous posts.

3) Kernel prob IMO: Something is killing one undesired app.. Using magisk with vanced YouTube app, and i cant turn the app to the background (no screen or small preview), just at the notification bar, and power off the screen & keep listen for more then 1:30 aprox.. It close the player control under notification.. This happens with screen on too (background play and use other apps).

The only way to get background playing (screen on or off) is to Let or the full app opened under primary screen or Let the small preview playing in front of other apps).

See screen shoot please.

Thanks!

What version of Magisk are you trying to install?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] flar2:
Not sure but worth a try. I usually enable this on my kernels, and Google recently started enabling it on some of their kernels.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] carlos67:
version 16.4 with magisk manager apk 5.6.7 and latest 5.7 apk

I'm completely out of ideas now and have pulled out most of my hair in frustration :eek:

Edit: how can it be that I'm able to install this kernel but not the magisk root zip. I mean, it must install because afterwards the magisk manager app is installed but shows magisk is not installed. I've also tried clicking on install and patching the boot image file and then flashing through fastboot but no-go. Same result :(
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] joemossjr:
Did you flash kernel first then magisk because if you flash magisk first them kernel it will take away root

Get the factory image and start again from scratch. On this device, you must follow the steps exactly. Once you get used to a/b devices, it's no problem but there is a lot of confusion right now as many of the standard tools have not been updated for this device.
