Back up the kernel your currently using, then just flash it again in twrp or through the EXKM app. Or, just dirty flash your rom again :good:

Thank you! It worked.

Let's hope the kernel gives me better battery life on my Nexus 6P :good:

btw how do i backup the kernel? the one that is in the ROM?

OK for the Pixel Experience ROM?

I've noticed there is an ElementalX kernel for Android 9 for the Google Pixel phones. Can anyone advise if that's OK to use on the Nexux 6P? Or if the latest kernel for the 6P, meant for 8.1, is OK to use if I've installed the Pixel Experience ROM? Thanks

Hi @flar2
I have a lot of these issues on my logcat:

linux_qmi_qmux_io_wake_lock: Err in writing wakelock=qmuxd_port_wl_0, error [1: Operation not permitted]
linux_qmi_qmux_io_wake_unlock: Err in writing wakelock=qmuxd_port_wl_0, error [1: Operation not permitted]


could you solve them and update accordingly elementalx kernel for Nexus 6P, please?

I found a solution, but this work for Nexus 5X only https://android.googlesource.com/device/lge/bullhead/+/95aa2b4e2d6c26ee1b37241bc22ec32a6382d3fb^!/

Do these errors actually cause a problem?

    p2214177205-11.jpg


    ElementalX is like the stock kernel by default, but allows you to change almost anything you want.

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

    ElementalX is simple and clean. It does not have useless kernel patches or make dangerous or experimental changes to your phone that cause weird or inexplicable problems.

    ElementalX has useful and well-tested features that make your phone better.



    Features
    • Easy installation and setup with Aroma installer
    • Wake Gestures (sweep2wake and doubletap2wake)
    • Sweep2sleep
    • Overclock or underclock CPU
    • Advanced color control (RGB, Saturation, Value, Contrast, Hue)
    • Sound control (headphones, speaker and mic)
    • Backlight dimmer option
    • High Brightness Mode option
    • Option to disable touchboost
    • NTFS r/w and exFAT support

    Installation

    1. Flash in recovery

    For maximum compatibility with all ROMs, ElementalX uses your existing ramdisk.

    You should only flash ElementalX over the kernel that came with your ROM!!!



    Notes

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

    So, it turns out this device does have a secret doubletap2wake setting:

    Code:
    echo 1 > /sys/devices/soc.0/f9924000.i2c/i2c-2/2-0070/input/input0/wake_gesture

    Surprised nobody found it yet!

    If the settings are all there in the free version, why pay?

    I just spent $1300 on new phones this month and will spend countless hours developing cool features that will be used by this and other kernels. So I really do appreciate it when people spend a few dollars on my app.
