Hi. Have been using your kernel + app for a year now, and it was great. Switched from stock 8.1 to Pixel experience pie a week ago, and I miss the battery life & power management your kernel provided. Any plans on further supporting this decide with Pie?

Just wanted to report that I've been using the latest version of this kernel (8.1 r77) on AICP Pie rom and been having no problems. The key was to use it in permissive mode. In enforcing mode I got random reboots but in permissive mode I haven't had a random reboot yet and its been about a week. Of course, my phone is not as secure now, lol.

I don't know if this will help any but james franco your a legend man, I remember your kernel paved the way for my interest in android customization and roms when I got my very first real device which was the Samsung Galaxy S2 and boy did it show how much work you put into that kernel, I think you loved that phone as well. Anyway just wanna say Nexus 6P is like another Galaxy S2 for me a special phone with special needs so if theres any chance you can work out a new version of the kernel for android 9.0 or even 10, there are people who will deffinitly enjoy it!

    Hi all.

    Compatibility:
    It should work on any rom by following this logic:
    Builds from r1 to r23 are Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow only (up until June's security patches)
    Builds from r24 are for Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow only from July's security patch up to the r28.
    Builds from r29 are for Android 7.0 Nougat.
    Builds from r40 up to r49 are for Android 7.1.1 Nougat only.
    Builds from r50 up to r55 are for Android 7.1.2 Nougat.
    Builds from r56 up to r64 are for Android 8.0.0 Oreo.
    Builds from r65 are for Android 8.1.0 Oreo.

    Download:
    https://francokernel.app

    Installation:
    Flash the zip in your recovery
    or
    Auto-flash from Franco Kernel Updater app

    Features:
    1 - Legendary battery life
    2 - Flash & forget
    3 - Typical interfaces like display adjustments, sound control, vibration control, and all that boring stuff
    4 - Bypasses the verified boot flag for Android Pay compatibility (root still breaks Android Pay but that's your own problem)
    5 - Idle power consumption reduced to the absolute minimum (if you have wakelocks from 3rd party apps you're obviously on your own)
    6 - Support for FKUpdater's Performance Profiles
    7 - Magical support, I'm here every day, checking posts almost hourly, ready to help anytime (well, unless you fail to read the OP, which contains most info you need)
    8 - Seemless integration with my app FKUpdater
    9 - No crap placebo patches, or "magical" optimizations
    10 - Probably more, check my github for all the details - the code speaks for itself

    Disclaimer to moderators:
    Slight OT is fine, but when users decide to act stupid they should be dealt with with the appropriate means - its really annoying for me when OT turns crazy. Please put the warning/ban hammer anytime any of you think there's lack of respect and/or too much unwanted OT crap - but if it doesn't meet this criteria let the OT posts alone. Thank you.

    Cheers!

    Now that Oreo is out I'll be starting FK from scratch (as I always do).

    Expect at least 24-48 hours for a new build.

    FKUpdater users from previous phones: support for this device will be added as soon as realistically possible.

    My main focus on r1 release was to improve battery life as much as possible. I'm very happy with it.

    If you want a detailed change-log check my git.

    I'm sure you're going to love it.

    A little weekend treat: http://kernels.franco-lnx.net/Nexus6P/6.0/anyKernel/fk-r8-anykernel2.zip
    You can flash that on top of any rom and it'll work :) I strongly suggest that, if you're using a custom rom, you "dirty flash" your rom package so that you get back the default boot.img and then flash this zip on top of it. If you're on stock I wouldn't worry, but if you want a pristine installation flash stock boot.img from the nexus images and then flash this zip.

    Anyway, FKUpdater will be out sometime Monday/Tuesday supporting auto-flash of this new flashing method, so I'll hold off an official release of r8 until then, but you can go ahead and play with it, has lots of small changes (I won't bother you with the details). Enjoy and let me know how it works for you.
