thank you, this is awesome.. now i have this on both my pixels..been using the pixel more than the xl

Chainfire's root for the Pixel/Pixel XL is live!

I'm running this kernel with root and it works great! A few small things in the EX Kernel app that still need to be implemented/fixed (@flar2 already knows), but so far after a few hours things are still solid.

Just finished supper and saw Chainfire's post on G+, trying it out now.

I kinda like the little one better too

johnandbodhi · Oct 30, 2016

works like a charm..only four cores show in exkm

Is the SafetyNET patch working with .04? It doesn't seem to be working even though the kernel flashed successfully on the active boot slot

mrnovanova · Oct 30, 2016

So far when I flash EX kernel root stops working and when I reboot the phone to root it again kernel reverts back to stock. Is there a way to keep the kernel permanently?

How did you manage to get the kernel and root running at the same time? One removes the other for me. Is there a way to flash the kernel permanently?

You flash this kernel with:

fastboot flash boot IMAGE

Then the root boot image:

fastboot boot KERNEL_IMAGE

Make sure you leave off the flash part for the kernel.

Thanks for the reply but i don't see the distinction between "this" kernel and "the" kernel. Are there two kernels or one I'm supposed to flash twice?

flar2 · Oct 30, 2016

Update!!

Changes for 0.05:
-add vibration control

Obviously you'll need root to play with this stuff.

Here's the procedure:

1. reboot to bootloader
2. fastboot flash boot_a EX-P-0.05.img
3. fastboot boot boot-to-root.img
4. Profit...

I just pushed an update to EX Kernel Manager. Version 2.93 fully supports the Pixel. It fixes the crash on the Graphics screen, adds vibration control, updates to work with all GPU settings, and fixes Kernel Backups.

The second kernel is Chainfire's root boot image.

Success!!! I got both working now thanks. Will I have to do this after every reboot or will the kernel stick because I did flash instead of just boot?

Thanks btw! Much apreesh!

If I flash the kernel without root, just to get Android pay working, what would be different from stock kennel? Sweep 2 wake and sweep to sleep are both on correct? Any scheduler/swap/zram/clock changes?
