ElementalX Kernel

ElementalX is designed for maximum stability. It is made for people who depend on their phone every day.


Features:
-Advanced color control (KCAL)
-Wake gestures (S2W & DT2W)
-Sweep2sleep
-CFQ, noop, deadline, FIOPS, SIO, BFQ, and zen i/o schedulers
-NTFS r/w support
-Option to disable fsync
-Block wakelocks



Installation
Flash zip in TWRP recovery

For this release I am using anykernel2 installer by @Osm0sis




Notes

EX Kernel Manager can be used to configure settings (and soon update or install the kernel quickly and easily).


Sweep2wake and doubletap2wake are currently in testing, they may not be stable and could use extra battery in their current state. When these options are disabled (default) then you can safely use the kernel without risk of them causing problems.

@flar2

Pixel 2 xl, 8.1, stock recovery, rooted with modified magisk v14.5420.

To use elementalx, boot twrp, flash elementalx-p2-1.00, reboot, or flash magisk again after?

Thank you again for your hard work!!

When i go to download the kernel the link shows it for Google Pixel(sailfish). Want to confirm that this is for pixel 2 xl. Crazy question i know but just want to be sure before i flash.

Also download shows it for 8.0.0 want to confirm its for 8.1.0

The source is unified (the same kernel binary and dtbo image work for both devices) so yes, it will work fine.

This is a stupid question I assume but does that mean we could flash rooms built for sailfish and use this kernel, if not what changes would need to be made to those builds to make them functional here?

I don't believe we can

 

[ACiDxCHRiST]

Working fine here on 8.1

The only issue I see is in EXKM. EXKM "Could not find compatible version" on ElementalX tab. So EXKM is not seeing this kernel as available for my device (taimen). I am assuming an update for EXKM will come out soon that will fix that.

Finally! Awesome.

Only the kernel is unified. Each device has its own specific binaries and device tree (as they are manufactured by two different companies). And for that matter, some kernels like mKernel on the Pixel 2 and Electron Kernel for the Pixel 2 XL are designed only for those particular devices as they omit the other manufacturer's drivers and device tree overlays.

Thank you so very much. I was waiting for this since I got the phone in October.
Thanks again for being here.

Could someone please upload optimised settings for perfomance and battery?
