I am though, that's the thing. I'm on the latest November image and cannot get any of these kernels to work. Or, are you saying there is another one coming down the pike? I love using these kernels, been using them for years. It feels weird using kirisakura right now.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jcmm11:
You got your answer in the kirisakura thread. If you're currently running kiri you have to restore the stock dtbo image to change to a different kernel.

Flash dtbo, flash the new kernel, and you should be good to go

I'm having those lockup issues that many are reporting and in my research I've found that there may be a commit that kernel developers can apply. Is this something that can or has been applied to this kernel?

Here's a link to a GitHub discussion. All the way at the bottom is where the commits to kernels are discussed.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
It is applied in version 3.09
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] JayGoat:
Thanks for the information. Safe to assume you mean 3.06? I haven't seen a 3.09 for the 3XL.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] santod040:
I'd say no, he meant 3.09, as evidenced by his github:

[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] JayGoat:
Ahh thanks. Still getting used to navigating github. So 3.09 is just unreleased at this point I gather?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] xFaultx:
Anyone else having problems with the Wifi/hotspot? I only got it after installing 3.09 on my android 11 (lineageOS)
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sliding_billy:
Not sure if anyone else has noticed it, so I'll post for @flar2 and others. After autoflashing the update to the 3/1 kernel (which installed fine) on both a P3 and P3XL, the EX app still thinks there is a new version available after reboot.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
It is fixed now
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:

Will this work with March update?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] newkydawg:
Yes! Working great for me with March update and Magisk Canary with Systemless Hosts enabled.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
Version 3.10 is for March update
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] mntnbkr:
Hoping someone might be able to help me out. I'm a relative newb to the EX Kernel manager and to flashing kernels in general, though I've been a root (and occasional ROM) user since the OG Motorola Droid.

I was able to flash the EX Kernel on the February update without issue, but I just flashed the March update and can't get the EX kernel installed again. I keep getting "Flash Failed" error when trying to flash with the auto flash option in EX Kernel Manager.

Pixel 3XL, rooted with Magisk (tried both stable and canary versions with same result.) I have no modules beside Busybox enabled in Magisk.

Any ideas?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] LilSasa:
Is that only available through EX Kernel Manager?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ambassadordave:
Perhaps similar to GohanBurner last November, I'm ending up with a stuck Google logo on boot after flashing P3-3.14 from the app.

I just updated stock Android 11 March update, re-rooted with Magisk (22), and then use EXKM to flash the kernel. Upon reboot my phone sits at the Google logo. A reboot into fastboot and then reflashing the Magisk modified boot.img clears the issue but of course without the ElementalX kernel.

Any thoughts?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Beefybeardedbear:
yeah, im also having trouble with that. everytime i flash this, my system ui starts crashing, and my wifi just breaks. i read something about modules or some **** like that. i dont know if thats whats causing it though
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] empulse92:
Nope, had the same issue without any module installed, just plain root.

Well, you disabled the energy aware part.

I think it's a oom related reboot though.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
Something to do with WLAN.

Hi,

Saturation setting doesn't stay after reboot.

Regards,
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] airmaxx23:
It's a known issue. You can make it stick by opening the EX Kernel app, go into User Settings, hit the +, then direct it to sys/module/msm_drm/parameters/kcal_sat. I entered a value of 259 which equates to 36 on the saturation slider.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
Update!!!

This update fixes the non-stop vibration bug with wake gestures, adds mic gain control, and direct HBM.

Direct HBM forces high brightness mode instantly. I used the old sysfs path so it's compatible with existing apps, like this one.

The existing HBM implementation from Google remains, for those who want to use it. Currently, in EXKM, high brightness mode will appear twice. The first entry is direct HBM, the second entry is Google's HBM. I will re-label these in an update.

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:

ElementalX-P3-1.01.zip

Changes:

-fix nonstop vibration bug

-fix stock doubletap for blueline

-add direct HBM

-use lz4 compression for zram
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] dnsmo:
I direct install from EXKM (the app) and this time it works, no more unpack ramdisk error. great job bro!

Do I need to reinstall magisk manually (which I did) every time I flash the new kernel?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] finshan:
Can anyone explain the difference in high brightness modes and whether this update fixes the bug that causes it to disable the first time your screen turns off? Thanks.

EDIT: just checked, it's still broken. [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] HBM auto-disables the first time your screen turns off.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
It's not broken, that's how it's supposed to be. It's a safeguard because it's not meant to be on all the time.

If you want to override this behaviour, use the High Brightness Mode app in my signature.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
No. If you had root before flashing, you should still have root.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] finshan:
I have the app. If what you want is for us to pay you, fine. I've already paid for the kernel manager app AND the HBM app. I don't care about the money. I just want a HBM that doesn't suck, and the app sucks compared to the new "google HBM" (not to mention it's an app, another thing we have to download and set up and give permissions to).

I don't agree with the excuse that "it's not supposed to remain on". The whole point of the kernel app is to let us tweak and overclock and automate things that we "aren't supposed to". At least give us the option to let it remain on. It's method for handling high brightness across the slider range is better than how the HBM app does it.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
Why don't you just code it up yourself then
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] elkay:
Curious, does this kernel maintain Magisk on flashing update, or do I need to reflash Magisk after each kernel update?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] xiheartjtag:
No need to reflash Magisk.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] finshan:
Or I can offer feedback to the dev, as a paying customer. Others were complaining about this too, don't act shocked like you aren't aware that people want this feature without having to pay extra (or, having ALREADY PAID TWICE, to have the freedom to manage our kernel with the kernel manager we paid for).
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] c_86:
Hey. Calm. It's his kernel it's his app

He can choose to put whatever or not out whatever he wants.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] airmaxx23:
The app doesn't seem to enable HBM at all. If I have the brightness up all the way and press the widget or turn it on in the app nothing happens. When you turn it off the brightness slider goes down to about 85%.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
Works perfectly for me. Make sure you have latest kernel, latest hbm app, everything has root access and you go through the initial setup in the hbm app.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] airmaxx23:
I've done all that. I did have a different kernel installed prior to this one so I'm flashing everything back to stock. The funny thing is that HBM worked in the kernel app but not the HBM app. I'll report back once I'm up and running again.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
It definitely works, I've tried it on two different devices.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
I have re-uploaded the kernel, it should work now. Delete it from your phone and re-download if you have downloaded it before this exact time.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sliding_billy:
No luck with the new file. Same issue. I doubt it was an upload issue since the issue happened on both P3 and P3XL. Nothing a flash of the Magisk patched boot.img won't resolve until you get it fixed. :)

Also, it looks like there is no kernel update needed for July.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ambassadordave:
I have had ElementalX working on this phone previously, yet since March, I've always ended up with a stuck Google logo on boot after flashing. This has included P3-3.14 up through 3.18 now and always using Auto Flash through the EXKM app. I hadn't bothered much, figuring it was something with my phone. Yet today I did a clean flash of the July update and it still happens?

After the July update, I re-rooted with Magisk (23), and then re-installed & used EXKM to Auto Flash the kernel. Upon reboot my phone just sits at the Google logo.

From there I can then reboot into fastboot and reflash the Magisk modified boot.img which clears the issue but of course without the ElementalX kernel.

Edited to add: Tried ensuring phone is on stock via

Settings > System > Advanced > Reset Options > Erase all data (factory reset)

...yet after a clean restart & sign in, Google Pay says "Couldn't finish setup to pay in stores. This may be because it is rooted or altered in some other way." Google Pay did work prior to this attempt to clean install the July update (via Magisk & SafetyNetFix). If Google Pay is finding some root remnant, perhaps that's what's blocking successfully flashing this kernel again?

Any thoughts to try?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ambassadordave:
After trying a number of things, none of which worked, I used EXKM to flash Kirisakura and my Pixel seems to have run fine since. Not the resolution I'd hoped to arrive at, yet sufficient. Best of luck with ElementalX!

It's working after flashing the stock system/boot images and installing everything again. Sorry for the mess up on my part.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] elkay:
1.01 broke gestures on Pixel 3. I also couldn't install directly over 1.00 in TWRP. Gave an error. Had to flash stock from fastboot, then 1.01 then Magisk again from TWRP. Gestures can't be changed from EX manager, neither from previous version nor the version just pushed to the Store. I had vibrate off and swipe up on, now none of the gestures change when toggling, all stuck at defaults. Reboot changed nothing. Uninstall/reinstalling changed nothing. As it stands now, swipe to wake is stuck off and I can't turn on dt2w, so all wake mechanisms short of the power button are now broke on my phone. :(

EDIT - USER ERROR!! Gestures work, but as a first time user of EX Manager, and coming from a UI developer, the way to set these options is not intuitive. Most people are used to tapping on a row toggling a setting. Having a separate action of most of the row from the power button itself is what bit me and doesn't seem right. A more intuitive and better experience would be to have the whole row, including the power button, surface the modal dialog and add an option in that dialog for 'off'. This would avoid that confusion. Just my 2c from another developer. :)

Works for me too.

Bought EXKM a long while ago for my older Pixel XLs, now intrigued by HBM and purcased that to help support your work. I threw in a cup of coffee too.

I don't understand how anyone can act so rudely about work that you do essentially for free, and quite well. XDA is not the place for that. No one is forced to use your work. As you said, code it up yourself.

Another point about HBM. Why in the world would anyone want to continually burn up their screen (and retinas) like that? It's perfect. When you really need it, it turns on. Googles implementation, or lack thereof, is what sucks. It was a bright sunny day and I could easily see my screen outdoors today. Bonus.

Thanks for your excellent work. I used to participate in XDA a lot more, the final straw was someone else taking credit for research and work that I did. I hang around for the info and help I get from reading. Yeah, I actually read!

End of my rant.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] flar2:
Much appreciated. A lot of people don't realize it costs money to run this project, and it wouldn't be possible for me to do all this if people didn't buy the apps. I just try to make the apps something worth buying.

As for HBM, it would be irresponsible of me to create a situation where it's stuck enabled. It's probably not a good idea to run HBM all the time, and it definitely can't be good for your eyes in normal lighting.

What are people's idle drain stats on this phone?

I'm getting terrible battery drain, always between 1% and 2% per hour with the screen off. It's the same with stock or custom kernels, with or without wake gestures.

In contrast, my Pixel 3 (blueline) only drains between 0.3% to 0.4% per hour. This is about the same as most of my other phones. The only other phone with battery life this bad is the Galaxy S9, which was a real dud.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] c_86:
It really depends for me

Right now I'm about 0.75% idle but I've barely touched it today and have been on WiFi all day. On a normal day my idle is about 1.25-1.85% which is higher then what I was getting on my OP5T.

I'm hoping with time it will get better with more updates and such. Especially from great Dev's like you

Curious tho, would I be out of line to ask for a specific governed? I'm really hoping you can load up bluspark in, as I have always liked it and had good times with it.

Thanks again for all your hard work use your kernel all the time regardless of the kernel I run. Never fails me.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] c_86:
In reference to my post above. Attached is my battery stats
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bleez99:
Purely anecdotal, but battery drain isn't fantastic for me either. I can't blame your work either. Last night, I went to sleep for my usual seven. I decided not to plug in the phone. I do have a bad habit of streaming music to fall asleep to, but that's only for a half hour. I expected to wake up and see the battery in the 90s. It was 83%. Nothing scientific here but that does seem excessive. Similar experience before your kernel hit the streets running stock.

I usually leave it charge while asleep, but sometimes I'm curious to see what happens when it's fairly idle. My Pixel 2 XL with your kernel did much better. That's apples and oranges, larger battery on the 2XL and a different processor. But still, that was a phenomenal non battery burner.

EDIT:

Maybe off topic, but I bought two non Google 10 watt wireless chargers. The original firmware said charging rapidly, and I'm convinced it WAS charging rapidly. The November update "fixed an incorrect charging status" and now it says charging slowly. With my tin foil hat on I'm positive that Google intentionally disabled fast charging on anything but their $80.00 charger. Smooth move. I am still a Google fan, but too many Apple like moves. Sure, I'll shell out a grand for a nice phone, but really, $80.00 for a charger? Please. I bought two inexpensive Chinese charging stands that I'm quite happy with for less than the cost of one Google stand. They charge every other phone on the market rapidly, including the iPhone X and the S9. Good reviews on Amazon.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Freak07:
Overnight drain for me is very low on the Pixel 3 XL compared to Pixel 2 XL. Exacty same setup on both phones.

Pixel 3 XL uses 2-3% over 7 hours

Pixel 2 XL uses 6-7% over 7 hours

I remember when I received my Pixel 2 XL with, I think, Android 8.0 on board, the first few months I would also have an overnight drain of 1-2% over 7 hours. Sadly when 8.1 dropped this changed drastically. I still don´t know what the reason for this is, tried everything I could think of personally. I have a few testers for the Pixel 2 XL and most of them still have an overnight drain of 1-3% over 7 hours on Pixel 2/XL.

Hopefully the Pixel 3 XL´s idle drain will stay good for me over the updates.

Yeah you´re absolutely right about that.
