[KERNEL] [February 5] ElementalX-OP6 4.00 (Android 10)

[frezd]

a) no such issue

b) it's not kernel related, the earlier you understand that the earlier you can search the culprit in the right place that is user space, apps, settings and . setup as well as combinations of those.

use a battery monitoring app of quality to monitor battery usage by app/consumer and time to find the culprit.

all above is only certain if you didn't change relevant kernel settings, be it on purpose or by accident, means of course one can tweak the kernel the way that it would become a battery hog while i assume from your post that this is not the case, at least not knowingly.

Thanks for your quick reply.Any advice on which app to monitor of rhid and find this damn culprit ?

And yes didnt change really big thing in the kernel settings. Nothing fancy honestly. And what is weird is that it has been workint for hours and all or a sudden I have been stuck with those high frequencies. How to kill your battery in few hours...

as to finding the culprit follow my advice and monitor battery usage.

if something starts to drain your battery once of a sudden after several hours it should be quite distinguishable (showing) in any decent battery monitoring app. of course no-one can make an educated guess without even knowing what kind of apps you have installed and how they're setup.

first of all safe your kernel as it is and revert to defaults, nothing fancy is very relative and what you think not fancy can play havoc, especially when people start to kill apps and wakelocks. they often harvest the opposite of what they wanted. an app that is killed will start again and a wakelock that is suppressed will attempt over and over again, both means a lot more juice going down the drain.

further keep an eye on your radios, week signals and/or LTE can multiplay energy consumption depending on use case.

best know culprits however are social media apps together with trials to keep them in check by the wrong means.

more i can't tell, you have to either monitor and/or take logs around when it starts, most probably you will find some repeating fails around that time.

Are you using performance governor?

Thanks a lot for your advices. I will have a deeper look.
Just on a side note, someone from another thread, the xXx nolimits one got the same issue. It seems that there is an issue between the Kernel Tweaks in the "module" and the ElementalX kernel "tweaks". We are digging a little bit deeper but not sure we, at least myself find something as I am not the real expert even I know some "stuff".

Nope I dont. Almost all features by default. But as stated below on an other post, I am not the only one having this issue.

I first mentioned this several pages back, and I believe Newb666 from the other thread was following along with my postings from this thread. You can edit the script or just disable kernel tweaks in xXx, I had success disabling memory tweaks in xXx as well, since I had defined them to what I wanted in EXKM anyway.

about xXx, it does exactly that, it limits and kills wakelocks and the likes and the worst is that users in some cases don't know exactly what it does, hence once something goes wrong it's almost impossible to troubleshoot, what remains is to de-activate those tweaks and stick to those really useful which depends on use case and personal preferences of course.

that issue just confirms what i posted earlier and if it were not for early availability and reluctance to let go of something "special" xXx had never been so successful and most important, it's not a rom as one might falsely assume from the title.

i recommend to remain stock 9.02 + EX an unbeatable combo for everyone who seeks painless optimization.

:crying:

Call Santa to fix your phone, the problem is definitely not from kernel side.

:crying:

perhaps you should do your homework instead of quoting the OP and ask for a fix where nothing is there to fix, it's all on your side.

when you say "xXx had never been so successful", on which facts do you base this statement? I briefly checked the stats on xda for the OP6 and OP5 and they are talking a different language.

Hello, author.I tried to compile the kernel with source code.I executed these instructions in the source directory:
1) export PATH=$PATH:/home/aarch64-linux-gcc/bin
2) export CROSS_GCC=aarch64-linux-android-
3) export ARCH=arm64
4) export DEFCONFIG=op6-perf_defconfig
5) make O=$OUT CROSS_COMPILE=$CROSS_GCC $DEFCONFIG
6) make O=$OUT CROSS_COMPILE=$CROSS_GCC headers_install
But step six was wrong.
Can you tell me how to compile it?

Merry Christmas everyone!

I have an issue. I was on Open Beta 9, flashed ElementalX 2.02 and now my phone boots, but the screen stays black/screen doesn't turn on. What should I do?

I got a phone call but had a black screen. The LED was also working.

I did a quick search in the thread but couldn't find anything.

Edit:

Fixed by flashing 3.09...

Error...very poor

Magisk issue. Nothing to do with the kernel. Reinstall latest magisk

Error

OnePlus 6

Open beta 10

Ver 18 installed

I reset factory phone just for this problems and still waiting

How about trying a kernel which officially supports beta / custom builds?
You might have noticed that the last EX kernel build date of the 'beta' version is quite old... So you might not assume that it runs perfectly with a OOS beta which 'just' got released

I use the EK kenrel manager, but I don't understand why I can't change the configuration of display colours, I change for example the value of red but the changes don't affect the display, why ?

You have to go to the system settings and select custom colors for this to take effect.

Hi Guys, I'm behind a bit. Major life events have prevented me from doing anything since my last post.
I'm stuck on 3.07 with the Ramdisk error when trying to update.
I was hoping the next update version would fix it for me but I guess not?

I have the steps below for fixing it but I need to be sure there are no missing preceding steps required before it? Please?
I have downloaded the full zip of new stable update 9.0.3. This is considered a boot image correct?

If there are steps missing before or after I would be grateful for your help. Thanks

Flash boot.img
Reboot fastboot
Boot TWRP (BlueSpark)
Flash TWRP
Reboot TWRP (BlueSpark)
Flash Magisk
Reboot TWRP (BlueSpark)
Flash EX
