Hi all,
some of you know me from the Samsung devices area, where I provide my kernels already for more than two years to Galaxy S3 and Note 10.1 users for all sort of platforms (Samsung, Cyanogenmod, Omnirom etc.)
Last year I got an OnePlus One and decided to port my kernels also to this device.
Please note:
I am not heading to have as many features as possible implemented, this is not my design goal. If you are more into that, move on to other, good existing kernels. If you are searching for a good mix of improvements and new functions while not sacrificing stability, you are welcome here (see below the history section for more info).
Compatibility
Important: This kernel is only meant to be compatible with official OnePlus OOS and nothing else.
So when the kernel does not run on custom rom XYZ, do not even bother me with it or ask hundred times in the thread for compatibility.
I could not care less about it !!
Important notes
When using new anykernel concept Boeffla-Kernel: Flash stock kernel of rom first !
Make sure you flash the correct kernel version, depending on whether you really use Oxygen OS or a different OS !!!
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.
Saying that, the Boeffla-Sound app in Play Store is not designed to work on the OPO, neither was it developed by me, hence it will never work on the OPO ever. Boeffla-Config is the way to go here !!!
Support
First read the FAQ section on the Homepage !!!
Click here to learn about all possible kernel settings in the config app.
Click here to learn about using the config app.
I will refuse to give support if you do any undervolting and experience freezes or hot reboots.
I will also not provide any support if you do not use Boeffla-Config app to tweak the kernel, other 3rd party tweaking apps are known (and intended) to cause issues.
Otherwise, you can get in touch with me via the support e-mail address: [email protected]
Please provide kernel version, rom version, a detailed issue description and ideally supporting screenshots or log files.

History and design targets
Basically I created my first Boeffla-Kernel in 2012 as there was no kernel for the Samsung Galaxy S3 around that had exactly the mix of functionalities that I wanted. I wanted to have full flexibility in undervolting and charge rates for instance, but did not like the sharpness and/or brightness tweaks many kernels have implemented as per default.
Hence, I began to create my own kernel after a while, adding all the features I like. This is the result of my work, which in the end I decided to share with you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. Also it does not aim to have the broadest feature set available everywhere.
It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
These design targets are also valid for the OnePlus kernel here!!!
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
things I do personally not need
things I do not like
things that are in any way dangerous
anything which is highly experimental
f2fs - it is known to cause various issues and compatibility problems
a CAF based kernel
anykernel method to use the ramdisk of the installed rom
anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
So do not even ask for it if it falls into the listed categories. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
And: I do not really care about benchmark numbers, they say almost nothing as long as something is not completely wrong. Important for me is the feel-good factor.
I am also not interested in gaming at all, so never expect a gamer kernel. It will just not happen...
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: Flash the correct kernel depending on whether you are using Oxygen OS or another rom !!!
Configuration of the kernel
To tweak and configure the kernel, manually load and install the app "Boeffla-Config V2" from the downloads section on www.boeffla.de.
You need at least version 2.1.77 or higher for the OnePlus One Boeffla Kernels.
Donation

Credits to developers
Of course, I had never been able to create all that by my own. So I want to give credits to the really good developers around, that have given me all the inspiration and from which I cherry picked lots of the implemented functionalities:
* ZaneZam
* Yank555
* Hardcore
* Chainfire

*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in your custom recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.
Cheers and enjoy

*** You want my support? Then stick to my rules ***
Guys, I am receiving more and more completely useless support requests in different threads. Useless because people provide nothing to be able to help, not even the minimal possible information they could give.
Hence, I will now remind anyone again on the support guide lines stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/support
Also you need to ensure you follow the installation guide lines incl. trouble-shooting stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/installation-how-to
And to cut a long story short: If you do not at least provide what I request in the support guide lines, I will IGNORE YOUR REQUESTS IN FUTURE.
Straight and simple. I have enough of people wasting my time just because they are too lazy to write details.
Period.
Also as a reminder:
you use xposed? -> no support, everything is your own issue
you use a custom rom and not the official stock or CM one? -> good luck, you are on your own
you undervolt or overclock? -> have fun, but without my support
Sorry, this might sound harsh (and it is meant to sound harsh), but you cannot imagine about how crappy support requests can be. Stating something does not work is just not enough.
Please consider that!!!
Andi
Been waiting for the first known custom kernel for Oxygen os and im glad that it's Boeffla!
Will test in a while, but im sure that it's great! Thanks for all your hard work!
Only for this kernel i will install Oxygen OS un my OPO jejeje

Hm. Well, to be honest, for me Oxygen OS is not yet complete enough for a real daily driver candidate. Too many things missing for my taste.
But well, yes - try it
Andi
Hell yeah!
Very cool, thank you :good:
I knew it was only a matter of time. Thanks for uploading!
Thanks..
And the boss is..........Andi :good:
thx

Flashed! Excited to see how this will turn out

Very strange, after two test (benchmarks) with OC, CPU temp is 50. Itz very low comparing to CM heat with similar conditions
Let's run this and see how it goes.
Thanks for your hard work!
I am going to try this also. Are you rocking OxygenOS add your daily driver? Because I do and it's nice beside that its problem with the system update wakelock.
No, it is not my daily driver. Too many things still missing for me.
For the Google play services wake lock, there is a solution. Calkulin modded the service so it doesn't create the wake lock anymore.
Andi
Yeah I know the solution. But I prefer the other which is starting the SystemUpdate Service from Google play services. This also prevents the wakelock.

You made it! Awesome. I have no time so I'm glad to see someone else working on an Oxygen kernel. I personally prefer Oxygen over CM, although it's not quite finished. Again, great to see more kernel options.

If you are using a custom rom that bases on OxygenOs, it might work. However, if it does not work, do not expect me to do tweak to make the kernel running with your favorite rom. I would not do it - my one and only reference is OxygenOs stock.
It is not supposed to be compatible to LineageOS, CM, HydrogenOS etc.
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.

Special thanks
Also I want to thank xda user @magnamentis for the ongoing testing to iron out the stability issues of the first alphas. He was doing that always taking the risk to "ffy" his brand new OP2.
Special thanks as well to @ZaneZam to pinpoint the issue during my absence as I was on business trips most of the time in the past weeks.

Hi all,
kernel is now officially released in version 1.0-beta1.
Download link, as always, on the kernel homepage.
Some notes again:
Make sure you have latest Boeffla-Config app running -> 2.02.03 !!!
This is the very very very first kernel version, so expect bugs or issues
Please be nice when you have an issue, this OP2 kernel costed me more grey hairs already than all other kernels I ever built together
Let the fun begin.
Andi
Awesome!! As stated there's no gpu over clocking, however I don't play games on my phone, will I be able to downclock the gpu?
Finally will try and report if any bug welcome to the opt forums andi i was waiting for you (really)

I'm excited to finally try out this kernel. I've always stumbled upon threads that mentioned this kernel and since I've had my Nexus 6, I never got the chance to try this kernel out. But now that I joined the OnePlus 2 family, I can finally see what this kernel is all about!

Sure, just for expectation management: Do not expect too much for the start now.
The msm8994 soc development is quite fresh, as well as the device.
So I am not really far where I want to be in future in terms of features etc.
But stuff will come over the time, as it was with the OPO kernels and the S5, S3, Tab 10.1 kernels etc.

You need to download the app from here:

Is it possible (in future of course) to control more paramters of audio chip? (Like in your kernel for i9300 for example)

History and design targets
Basically I created my first Boeffla-Kernel in 2012 as there was no kernel for the Samsung Galaxy S3 around that had exactly the mix of functionalities that I wanted. I wanted to have full flexibility in undervolting and charge rates for instance, but did not like the sharpness and/or brightness tweaks many kernels have implemented as per default.
Hence, I began to create my own kernel after a while, adding all the features I like. This is the result of my work, which in the end I decided to share with you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. Also it does not aim to have the broadest feature set available everywhere.
It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
These design targets are also valid for the OnePlus kernel here!!!
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
things I do personally not need
things I do not like
things that are in any way dangerous
anything which is highly experimental
f2fs - it is known to cause various issues and compatibility problems
custom hotplugging algorithms
a CAF based kernel
anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
So do not even ask for it if it falls into the listed categories. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
And: I do not really care about benchmark numbers, they say almost nothing as long as something is not completely wrong. Important for me is the feel-good factor.
I am also not interested in gaming at all, so never expect a gamer kernel. It will just not happen...
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: Flash the correct kernel depending on whether you are using LineageOS/CM or another rom !!!
Configuration of the kernel
To tweak and configure the kernel, manually load and install the app "Boeffla-Config V2" from the downloads section on www.boeffla.de.
You need at least version 2.4.50 or higher for the OnePlus 2 Boeffla Kernels.
Donation
If you like my work, feel free to donate: Donation-Link
If you donate at least 2,49 EUR (to be in line with the donation app prices on Google Play store), you will receive a personal donation code which unlocks some nice little comfort functions in Boeffla-Config V2 on top.

Credits to developers
Of course, I had never been able to create all that by my own. So I want to give credits to the really good developers around, that have given me all the inspiration and from which I cherry picked lots of the implemented functionalities:
* ZaneZam
* flar2
* Grarak
* Yank555
* Hardcore
* Chainfire
* AndreiLux
* Netarchy
* Gokhanmoral
* Simone201
* Mialwe
* Entropy512
* Faux
* Harunjo
* FranciscoFranco
* Ak
... I just hope I did not forget someone. If so, please let me know and I will add you of course.
Thanks to all of you for your great work !!!
Disclaimer
*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in your custom recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.

*** You want my support? Then stick to my rules ***
Guys, I am receiving more and more completely useless support requests in different threads. Useless because people provide nothing to be able to help, not even the minimal possible information they could give.
Hence, I will now remind anyone again on the support guide lines stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/support
Also you need to ensure you follow the installation guide lines incl. trouble-shooting stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/installation-how-to
And to cut a long story short: If you do not at least provide what I request in the support guide lines, I will IGNORE YOUR REQUESTS IN FUTURE.
Straight and simple. I have enough of people wasting my time just because they are too lazy to write details.
Period.
Also as a reminder:
you use xposed? -> no support, everything is your own issue
you use a custom rom and not the official stock or CM one? -> good luck, you are on your own
you undervolt or overclock? -> have fun, but without my support
Sorry, this might sound harsh (and it is meant to sound harsh), but you cannot imagine about how crappy support requests can be. Stating something does not work is just not enough.
Please consider that!!!

question has been asked to much!!
Machinex
MarkOneHundred
Sheer will .
This is machinex.
This is machinex. I have been working on this kernel for over a year now, and am finally comfortable with its release to the public. This kernel builds on the great work of those who have made this device the powerhouse that it is. There are elements here that you have experienced on every GS4 kernel to date, as well as other devices.
The goal I had for this project was upstreaming/updating/experimentally upgrading as much as I possibly could. I have done so, and will continue to do so.
This kernel is ONLY for TW-based, 5.0.1 roms for the I9505!!! NO I WILL NOT DEVELOP FOR DEVICES I DO NOT OWN, SAVE YOUR BREATH!
OBLIGATORY DISCLAIMER:
THIS KERNEL COULD VERY WELL DESTROY YOUR PHONE, YOUR LIFE, YOUR MARRIAGE, Etc. YOU INSTALL AT YOUR OWN RISK!! XDA AND I ACCEPT NO LIABILITY FOR YOUR DECISION TO USE THIS KERNEL!!For noobs: assume that installing this kernel will cause your phone to grow arms and punch you in the face.
PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS OP BEFORE LEAVING USELESS "IT DOESN'T WORK" COMMENTS!
Issues that aren't answered here will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.
SEE POST #2 FOR UPDATES, CHANGELOGS, and FIXES
SEE POST #3 FOR BATTERY/PERFORMANCE INFO
SEE POST #4 FOR A SHORT SYNAPSE BRIEFING
LOGS OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN! Context helps too. What were your Synapse Settings?
KNOWN ISSUES Wifi issue is fixed! After a fresh rom install, all you need to do is reboot and the appropriate files are created in /data enjoy! HOTSPOT IS FIXED!!!! Finally! I AM AWARE OF AND WORKING ON LOCKSCREEN PIN BUGS!!
FEATURES:
- Linux 3.4.113 + a LOT of upstreamed subsystem code.
- Automatic Busybox Installation, Version 1.25.1.
- Cpufreq core backported ENTIRELY from mainline 4.13. All Cores operate independantly. Their governors and tunables can all be different.
- Govorners: Due to a highly upstreamed cpufreq core api, not many custom governors for now except for Interactive, Intelliactive, and the *NEW* Schedutil governor, described in the documentation like so:
The "schedutil" governor aims at better integration with the Linux
kernel scheduler. Load estimation is achieved through the scheduler's
Per-Entity Load Tracking (PELT) mechanism, which also provides
information about the recent load [1]. This governor currently does
load based DVFS only for tasks managed by CFS. RT and DL scheduler tasks
are always run at the highest frequency. Unlike all the other
governors, the code is located under the kernel/sched/ directory.
Sysfs files:
* rate_limit_us:
This contains a value in microseconds. The governor waits for
rate_limit_us time before reevaluating the load again, after it has
evaluated the load once.
For a great, comprehensive blog regarding the specifics of each governor, as well as the settings found below, please check out the link I've referenced in post #3.
- HARDLIMIT and THERMAL: Incorporated Yank555's CPU Limiting solution, Hardlimit. ALL hardlimits, cpu boost limits, and thermal limits are now PER CORE. I have included it directly in the core cpufreq code, and it is the primary controller for THERMAL, INPUT BOOST and user controlled hardlimits. Thermal overrides both user-selected and input-boost limits, and you can monitor the limiting in real time. Also, the thermal driver now accounts for each core's temperature, and saves time/lock-contention by skipping core control if the temps are below the frequency limiting value.
-CPU HARDPLUG: A driver I built that hooks into the main cpu hotplug API and allows you to disable any core you want, configurable for screen on/off.
- Hotplugs: MX Hotplug, personally built from scratch and uses a real-time kthread for its calculation work. Intelliplug 15.8 (Personally Updated), Alucard Hotplug, MSM_sleeper, Lazyplug, Blu Plug, and Bricked hotplug.
Hotplug Notes: I changed the names of certain functions in the Alucard and MSM Sleeper hotplugs, so that their tunables could be streamlined in Synapse. Synapse is cleaner and simpler than ever, but if you use a third party app, Alucard and MSM Sleeper's max cores and max cores during suspend settings will not be tunable. So anyone who uses a third party app with this kernel let me know and I'll devise a workaround. Mpdecision removed entirely. The "mpdecision" in our sysfs is actually bricked hotplug.
-GPU:Machinactive, Interactive, Conservative, Ondemand, Performance and Powersave GPU Governors, GPU touchboost (fixed suspend issue), ability to lock the min/max freqs, and more!
-Updated version of fauxsound (5.4) (flar2, alesaiko, me). I limited the options in the code to the 4 controls that actually work for our device, and you'll notice a significant stability improvement. Slimbus:Golden-ratio-based operation is pristine. Sound quality is hardware-perfected. The version number is largely arbitrary and I increment when I make any significant improvements. NO MORE USERSPACE CALCULATIONS NEEDED!!!
-A gamot of colour, brightness, and panel options that I frankly didn't think would be feasible for our device, but it's working! MDNIE HIJACK selection, KCAL, and Cyanogen's generic PCC colour control are implemented in Synapse. Note that MDNIE/KCAL stuff is a battery thief, and I've not tested PCC colour control enough for power consumption to give you a definitive statement on it. Note: PCC values are from 1000 (safety limit) to 32768 (or a number close to that), meaning your tuning control is as FINELY GRAINED as possible for this device. I can't believe Synapse actually supports its ridiculous number of steps (and well, I might add). Faux's generic "colour control presets' are in there and they actually work! The stock colours much more vivid, and lower brightness settings benefit from them as I have modified top brightness to my liking.
-HBM:Qualcomm High Brightness Mode: unlocked! This can be controlled via a checkbox in Synapse, but you can also use flar2's HBM widget from the play store. I tried it before and HBM would flicker, but i pulled off a VERY hacky way of making it userspace controllable. Be careful! Though it doesn't seem to drain the battery or overheat the device, it's purely experimental and could cause Chuck Norris to come to your house and personally smash your phone. Now SEPARATE from autobrightness! "SCREEN FLICKER FIX" on PAGE 2
- Completely upstreamed and overhauled cpu, power, scheduling...you name it. Updated Powersuspend to the point where I had to rename it, because it is now closely integrated with the core suspend/power api. Introducing: Prometheus. The driver now calls suspend directly when you turn the screen off, unless a) music is playing, b) the phone is plugged in or c) you choose to disable the feature.
-All the TCPIP tweaks etc, updates to random/frandom, android-specific autogrouping, limited but significant LMK/OOM updates.
-BACKPORTED "codel" fair-queueing net-scheduler, for a faster/more consistent networking experience.
-persistent ram, kexec-support, fast-charge, etc. Drop Caches button in Synapse is useful.
-Utilizing Qualcomm's built-in QRNGD (qualcomm random number generator daemon) with randomness optimized in the kernel = entropy for days.
-BOOTLOADER: Officially only 5.0.1 Bootloaders are supported. Unofficially, someone tried it with a KK bootloader and it worked fine for him so what do I know?
-COMPLETE Synapse support. Download, update, AND install Busybox On Rails from the PlayStore before you install the kernel for best compatibility and support. UPDATE: FULL Busybox installation is now included in machinex installer script. If you have any issues, still feel free to install Busybox on Rails. Upon kernel installation, you'll find Synapse installed in your system apps. If you want to get rid of it, just remove it from /system/priv-app with your file manager.
-CPU and GPU VOLTAGE Control: Both in Synapse. I DO NOT SUPPORT ISSUES IF YOU CHANGE VOLTAGE. YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN.
MENTIONS:
To those listed here, I cannot express how grateful I am for your assistence, patience, and kindness towards me as I badgered you throughout my journey. Though saying "thank you" doesn't feel like enough, thank you all. If I missed someone here, please tell me.

The Machinex Testing Team! - AMAZING folks, just amazing.
My Awesome Testers from this thread.
Again, I'm sure there's tons more.
On to the fun part then
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:More importantly, the uninstallation instructions. The install pretty much takes care of itself.
There are two links below that you must download in order to safely have an install/uninstall solution for this kernel. The one labelled "machinex-MarkOneHundred.zip" is the kernel. UPDATE: Busybox On Rails isn't required anymore. The second zip is crucial for uninstalling, aptly named "machinex-uninstaller-Jan12.zip." When this kernel is installed (and everytime it boots), it will rename mpdecision, thermald, thermal-engine, and power.default.so with an appended "-bak" suffix, because they all interfere with the updated power/cpu code in the kernel. If you switch to a different kernel, I INSIST that you flash the uninstaller (or take a look at the scripts yourself and do the stuff manually). ATTENTION: SLIM80'S KERNEL CLEANING SCRIPT IS NO LONGER NECESSARY WHEN FLASHING THIS KERNEL!!!!!! I HAVE INTEGRATED MY OWN CLEANUP PROCESS IN THE INSTALLER!!!!!!!!!!
TLDR: NO NEED FOR BUSYBOX ON RAILS, flash zip. use uninstaller zip to uninstall.
DOWNLOADS:
!!!JANUARY 12, 2017:UPDATE!! NEW UNINSTALLER for EVERY VERSION!!!!
DO NOT MIRROR THESE ELSEWHERE. DO NOT INCLUDE THEM IN YOUR ROM WITHOUT ASKING MY PERMISSION FIRST. I AM HAPPY TO COLLABORATE, NOT TO BE ON THE RECEIVING END OF BUG REPORTS CAUSED BY THIRD PARTY DOWNLOADERS.

So keep in mind this a development thread, blah blah blah, but if we all have good discussions (let's TRY to keep it on topic), I'm more than happy to have some fellow nerd friends to talk about my passion with. Heck, I want to use this thread as a chance to meet some other developers who wanna work on stuff together, exchange ideas, learn, and teach me how to get better at git.

Created 2016-09-05
Last Updated 2017-10-31
Reserved
UPDATES NOTICE:
Reset your fuelguage (in Synapse) after every install! WIping your cache and dalvik-cache can be helpful for stubborn apps, as well as wiping the cache of any specific app giving you trouble!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATES - MarkOneHundred - October 31, 2017
CHANGELOG:
- Updated memory management to roughly linux 4.4.
- Modified Cpufreq in various ways. Per-Cpu frequency touchboost, per-cpu thermal core tracking and limiting, and governors can now be changed if a cpu core is offline. The governor selected will be applied to the core once it comes back online.
- Implemented Omniboost, a generic touchboost interface that can be used for any driver, so long as driver has an external function that the booster can use.
- Built a new hotplug driver from scratch, mx_hotplug. The driver chooses to on/offline cores based on a combination of system load and current number of scheduler requests (and touch of course). What separates this hotplug driver from others is that it uses a real-time kthread in order to give it an "interactive" type calculation.
- Speaking of which, found and fixed the issues with google's most recent interactive governor, and have added it back. Due to it working perfectly now, I forward-ported Intelliactive as well.
- Updated Hardplug to be more efficient.
- Built a little userspace hotplug driver from scratch for those who just need manual core adjustments.
- Tons of other little fixes and updates, to the kernel itself and to Synapse. Please explore around Synapse for some of the updated features.
- Found and fixed any of the user reported bugs i could.
- Continued with the various core updates to 4.14.
- Updated to my own toolchain, 7.1.1 hardfloat, cortex-A15 optimized (it is similiar enough to krait to give us an edge).
- I will update this if i think of anything else.
Sticky: Kernel base is now pretty much somewhere between 3.16-3.18, however I will keep the versioning at 3.4 for certain functions that depend on kernel_version conditionals. Wifi hotspot disconnect issue still persists, but i'd like to think that one day it will be solved...
Can be found in MachineX Rom by the awesome @Andycar found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...m-machinex-debloated-nogapps-s6-apps-t3573009
See my poorly formatted wiki for older updates:
https://github.com/robcore/machinex/wiki
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
LOGS
In Synapse, under 'LOGS AND PROFILES,' you will find a button that says ALL LOGS. Please press this button IMMEDIATELY after a bug appears that you would like to report, or after a boot if you get a kernel panic (RR).
From now on, without these logs present, I am no longer able to respond to the issues brought up by users.
FIXES
The following fixes involve sqlite and the "Setting Storage" application, also known as Settings Provider, or "com.android.providers.settings package" You will be working with a file named settings.db, and the 'system' table within.
Synapse Cancelled Fix: Get rid of the init.d scripts that are conflicting with UCI service startup. Also check the SuperSU section below...
Sound Fix: Either don't use an audio mod, or don't use Faux Sound Engine. That's all she wrote.
ScreenFlickerFix: Using an SQLITE DB Editor of your choice (from playstore), navigate to the "system" table and change values for "dim_screen" and "intelligent_screen_mode" to 0. *UPDATE* NOW AVAILABLE IN SYNAPSE UNDER THE "EXTRAS TAB"
ChargingTweak: Same as above but change "adaptive_fast_charging" to 0. This is only IF you are having issues which kernel driver-level fast charge. *UPDATE* NOW AVAILABLE IN SYNAPSE UNDER THE "EXTRAS TAB"
MASSIVE THANKYOU to @Andycar for making the above two fixes possible via Synapse!
SuperSU: I'm seeing a lot of permisison errors. Make sure, when using custom roms and kernels, that SuperSU is set to be as permissive as possible so you don't get knox blocked. Here are the crucial settings:
- ENABLE SU during boot
- DISABLE (untick) Mount namespaces separation
- Install SuperSU into /system
- ENABLE Trust System User
- Though I know many have security issues with the idea of allowing apps by default, doing so will make your experience way faster and provide you with less interuptions. At the very least I would set allow by default for Synapse.
These SU settings are kinda par for the course when it comes to android modding.

For those having gaming issues, try removing them if you have them or adding them if you don't:
debug.performance.tuning=1
persist.sys.ui.hw=1
This might solve some issues for some folks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION NOTE: Your first boot will probably take longer than usual, because this kernel makes significant (but safe, and auto-backed-up) changes to your core operating system.
This kernel includes drivers that TW has been compatible with since JB (I checked),
but didn't update the kernel drivers for (the best example of this is Autosleep). That said, there are userspace controllers like thermald and mpdecision (a binary linked to kernel code)
that interfere with custom governors, hotplug drivers, etc, so I've made the decision to back them up in the kernel script, and have them disabled while using this kernel.
The UNINSTALLER restores everything to the state it was in before flashing machinex, which is why I so strongly emphasize its use.
PERFORMANCE AND POWER-SAVING
Regarding the age-old performance/battery-life settings questions floating around, I'm gonna go ahead and suggest the following website created by a very dedicated fella who started out with the exact line of questioning, and built a genius guide for users of custom kernels. Heck, it's useful for developers too.
His username here is @gsstudios and he is a recognized developer here on XDA. Deserves it too
http://androidmodguide.blogspot.ca/
and on XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/ref-to-date-guide-cpu-governors-o-t3048957
I encourage you to rate that thread 5 stars, as it is the most comprehensive guide to kernel tunables you ever did see.
Note that I *probably* don't incorporate feature requests, as I have enough on my plate with bringing up the subsystems to a point where I can call this a stable release thread. Don't like it? YOU try backporting linux 3.9 scheduling code to a Samsung 3.4 base
On that note, if anyone here is savvy regarding kernel, C and (not "or") git development, I welcome coding partners because working with a team means better quality, better time management, and a better chance of incorporating fancy tweaks.
Cheers.
SYNAPSE:
Synapse has a default "warning" that comes up the first time you open it.

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The initial warning is just a bug in the app because it's just been installed.
It's a design flaw in the app itself.
Synapse bases its stability check on whether the device is rebooted within 2 mins of being turned on.
Synapse does this on first boot for every single kernel that uses it,
because it has no previous internal boot settings to base its decision on,
and also because the app expects saved defaults when none have been established yet.
It is nothing to worry about.
Untick the option in settings called "stability check" going forward.
Breathe.
Does it work?
I'm on imperium kernel on Thor s7 rom, I was wondering if your kernel works with m919, tmo gs4, I was looking forward to trying out your rom.
Thank you
-jeff
Hey Jeff,
The answer is...maybe/probably. I know that's probably not what you want to hear, but let me explain.
My device is actually an i337m (which is why i included it in the thread title), but I've been using the international kernels and roms without *major* issues ever since I've owned it. This is built from international sources, and it is running well on Albe's awesome 9.0 rom, so I imagine it will perform well for the ported/upgraded roms for our phones.
So if you've been using the international roms/kernels without problems, I see no reason why this wouldn't work for you other than the bugs/current issues listed in the op.

@robcore.
Im gonna try this to imperium rom v15.
So what is the best settings for more battery life ?
Playing clash of clans a few times a day browsing tapatalk and using youtube all day.
I want my device to run cool. Lol
Update:
Got a random reboot from the first initial setup.
==========
Will let it run for a couple of days with the preset default settings.
I will use my old 2600mah for now and later on swap my 7500mah once i get some good battery stats.

Msm sleeper is a pretty sold hotplug for battery. I've noticed power efficient workqueues tend to slow things down/eat battery. Honestly I would try out msm sleeper for battery savings. Just note that games+youtube by design will eat into battery life. I will add some more power conscious governors soon. Also the usual stuff, the power your screen brightness the better, and turning off vibration/haptic will help.

I'm using this Kernel now on my GT-I9505 with THOR S7 v1.5 and so far a stable Kernel for me, many settings and alot settings I had never seen before as I like, very good! Just one thing til yet, Trying to set "Hellsactive" as CPU governor causes a freeze and a full reboot. Otherwise Kernel seems stable, using "Stockdemand" CPU Governor now. Keep going your work!

You know what, the interactive-based governors gave me trouble for the longest time. But I have found the issues in a great patchset, and am working on a fix that should be ready in a couple of hours. Until then EVERYONE STICK TO ONDEMAND-BASED GOVS!!!!

Well it's great to see you here man! Lol with screen colour I made some fixes and changes to sammy's mdnie code. Upon checking the code against their roms, it turns out they've never bothered to fix discrepancies between the values in settings and the driver itself! "Standard" and "dynamic" have been switched this whole time. Also "auto" has been a placebo all along, they have had the backend in place all along but never initialized it in the list of available screen modes. On that note, for even cooler stuff check out the "video_mode" scenario in synapse. It's AWFUL for battery life, but sharpens everything to a crisp. I'm pretty sure kcal helped with color too(?).
As for simple gpu gov, works just fine on MarkOne! Franco's simplification to it made it a freakin' powerhouse while being better for battery somehow.
Building MarkTwo as we speak, then I'll test it and it's out! I'm working on the gov settings in synapse while building too. The tunable settings are ticking me off.
Hi all,
some of you know me from the other OnePlus or Samsung devices areas, where I provide my kernels already for more than three years to OnePlus 3, OnePlus 2, OnePlus One, OnePlus X, Galaxy S5, S3 and Note 10.1 users for all sort of platforms (Samsung, LineageOS, Cyanogenmod, Omnirom etc.)
Thanks to generous supporters, I now own a second OnePlus 3T device which allows me to also provide a LineageOS kernel for this device.
Please note:
I am not heading to have as many features as possible implemented, this is not my design goal. If you are more into that, move on to other kernels. If you are searching for a good mix of improvements and new functions while not sacrificing stability, you are welcome here (see below the history section for more info).
Important notes
When using new anykernel concept Boeffla-Kernel: Flash stock kernel of rom first !
Make sure you flash the correct kernel version, depending on whether you really use LineageOS or a different OS !!!
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.
Compatibility
Important: This kernel is only meant to be compatible with official LineageOS and nothing else.
So when the kernel does not run on custom rom XYZ, do not even bother me with it or ask hundred times in the thread for compatibility.
I could not care less about it !!
Installation
Read the install instructions in the support section on the Boeffla Site.

First read the FAQ section on the Homepage !!!
Click here to learn about all possible kernel settings in the config app (quite outdated, as it is focused on S3 still).
Click here to learn about using the config app (quite outdated, as it is focused on S3 still).
I will refuse to give support if you do any undervolting/overclocking and experience freezes or hot reboots.
I will also not provide any support if you do not use Boeffla-Config app to tweak the kernel, other 3rd party tweaking apps are known (and intended) to cause issues.
I will refuse to give support if you have xposed framework installed and reporting any kind of weird issues. My opinion to xposed it quite clear: too powerful for >90% of the users that just mess up their system with it.
Otherwise, you can get in touch with me via the support e-mail address: [email protected]
Please provide kernel version, rom version, a detailed issue description and ideally supporting screenshots or log files.

History and design targets
Basically I created my first Boeffla-Kernel in 2012 as there was no kernel for the Samsung Galaxy S3 around that had exactly the mix of functionalities that I wanted. I wanted to have full flexibility in undervolting and charge rates for instance, but did not like the sharpness and/or brightness tweaks many kernels have implemented as per default.
Hence, I began to create my own kernel after a while, adding all the features I like. This is the result of my work, which in the end I decided to share with you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. Also it does not aim to have the broadest feature set available everywhere.
It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
These design targets are also valid for the OnePlus kernel here!!!
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
things I do personally not need
things I do not like
things that are in any way dangerous
anything which is highly experimental
custom hotplugging algorithms
a CAF based kernel
anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
So do not even ask for it if it falls into the listed categories. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
And: I do not really care about benchmark numbers, they say almost nothing as long as something is not completely wrong. Important for me is the feel-good factor.
I am also not interested in gaming at all, so never expect a gamer kernel. It will just not happen...
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: Flash the correct kernel depending on whether you are using LineageOS or another rom !!!
Configuration of the kernel
To tweak and configure the kernel, manually load and install the app "Boeffla-Config V2" from the downloads section on www.boeffla.de.
You need at least version 2.4.33 or higher for the OnePlus 3T Boeffla Kernels.
Donation
If you like my work, feel free to donate: Donation-Link
If you donate at least 2,49 EUR (to be in line with the donation app prices on Google Play store), you will receive a personal donation code which unlocks some nice little comfort functions in Boeffla-Config V2 on top.

*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in your custom recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.
Cheers and enjoy

*** You want my support? Then stick to my rules ***
Guys, I am receiving more and more completely useless support requests in different threads. Useless because people provide nothing to be able to help, not even the minimal possible information they could give.
Hence, I will now remind anyone again on the support guide lines stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/support
Also you need to ensure you follow the installation guide lines incl. trouble-shooting stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/installation-how-to
And to cut a long story short: If you do not at least provide what I request in the support guide lines, I will IGNORE YOUR REQUESTS IN FUTURE.
Straight and simple. I have enough of people wasting my time just because they are too lazy to write details.
Period.
Also as a reminder:
you use xposed? -> no support, everything is your own issue
you use a custom rom and not the official stock or CM one? -> good luck, you are on your own
you undervolt or overclock? -> have fun, but without my support
Sorry, this might sound harsh (and it is meant to sound harsh), but you cannot imagine about how crappy support requests can be. Stating something does not work is just not enough.
Please consider that!!!
Andi
Good morning,
very first version 2.0-beta1 is out.
Expect bugs (but not too many as the kernel is very much similar to the OP3 LineageOS kernel).
Anyways enjoy

Working nicely so far
so far so good just experiencing slow charging and heating while charge is it only me ? it takes around 1hr 49min to charge from (0 to 100)
finally ! for 3T lineage based. Welcome.
i was waiting for this, i wanted to see your kernel in action
Thank you very much, for this Kernel. This delivers the ultimate experience to the OP3T in my opinion!

Not by default: my rom does not change filenames, since it comes only with 3t blobs. You can either copy the files to their new names and go ahead (not tested), or you can build boeffla kernel yourself (very easy with @Lord Boeffla's provided scripts!) reverting the filename commit (tested with beta1 git status, I see no reason at all why current git shouldn't work).
BTW: @Lord Boeffla: thanx foe your efforts. Following your git with curiosity!
I get soft reboots on my OP3T on the official 20170223 build, when I try to use the gestures ("V" for Flashlight). Some else having this issue?

I'll stick with the kernel that ships with your ROM. I don't really know why I wanted to use a custom kernel, it's not like the ROM isn't quick as is to be honest.
Thank you for the advice tho.

Important: This kernel is only meant to be compatible with official OnePlus OOS and nothing else.
So when the kernel does not run on custom rom XYZ, do not even bother me with it or ask hundred times in the thread for compatibility.
I could not care less about it !!
To add: A community build is NOT an official build supported here. If you use a community build and have issues, don't complain or even report.
Important notes
Read first, especially when you are new to my kernels:
http://wiki.boeffla.de
Boeffla-Kernel uses the anykernel concept = Flash stock kernel of rom first !
This kernel is ONLY compatible to OxygenOs stock, nothing else !!!
If you are using a custom rom that bases on OxygenOs, it might work. However, if it does not work, do not expect me to do tweak to make the kernel running with your favorite rom. I would not do it - my one and only reference is OxygenOs stock.
It is not supposed to be compatible to CM, HydrogenOS etc.
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.
Important: Manually disable battery optimisation for Boeffla-Config app in the rom settings (battery -> battery-optimisation)

History and design targets
Basically I created my first Boeffla-Kernel in 2012 as there was no kernel for the Samsung Galaxy S3 around that had exactly the mix of functionalities that I wanted. I wanted to have full flexibility in undervolting and charge rates for instance, but did not like the sharpness and/or brightness tweaks many kernels have implemented as per default.
Hence, I began to create my own kernel after a while, adding all the features I like. This is the result of my work, which in the end I decided to share with you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. Also it does not aim to have the broadest feature set available everywhere.
It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
These design targets are also valid for the OnePlus kernel here!!!
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
things I do personally not need
things I do not like
things that are in any way dangerous
anything which is highly experimental
a CAF based kernel
anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
So do not even ask for it if it falls into the listed categories. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
And: I do not really care about benchmark numbers, they say almost nothing as long as something is not completely wrong. Important for me is the feel-good factor.
I am also not interested in gaming at all, so never expect a gamer kernel. It will just not happen...
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: Flash the kernel only if you are running a compatible rom !!!
Configuration of the kernel
To tweak and configure the kernel, manually load and install the app Boeffla-Config V2 from the downloads section on www.boeffla.de.
You need at least version 2.4.38 or higher for the OnePlus 5 Boeffla Kernels.
Donation
If you like my work, feel free to donate: Donation-Link
If you donate at least 2,49 EUR (to be in line with the donation app prices on Google Play store), you will receive a personal donation code which unlocks some nice little comfort functions in Boeffla-Config V2 on top.
Source code
All sources can be found in my Github repository: http://github.com/andip71
Credits to developers
Of course, I had never been able to create all that by my own. So I want to give credits to the really good developers around, that have given me all the inspiration and from which I cherry picked lots of the implemented functionalities:
* ZaneZam
* flar2
* arter97
* Grarak
* Entropy512
* Faux
* FranciscoFranco
* Ak
* Osm0sis
... I just hope I did not forget someone. If so, please let me know and I will add you of course.
Thanks to all of you for your great work !!!
Disclaimer
*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in your custom recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.
Cheers and enjoy

OOS4
http://kernel.boeffla.de/oneplus5/boeffla-kernel-oos/oos4xx/changelog.htm
--- Reserved 2 ---
Boeffla-Universe !!!
Very first public beta version is now released for the OnePlus 5, OOS version.
Please note: Expect bugs, the kernel is brand new and only 48 hours "old".
Also please carefully read the opening post as you need to be aware of some things, especially the thing about disabling battery optimisation for Boeffla-Config app !!!
Also read first, especially when you are new to my kernels:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/installation-how-to
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/troubleshooting
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/support
Finally here we go:
Version 1.0-beta1
30.06.2017
First official build
Note: This kernel only runs on OOS 4.x.x for the OnePlus 5 - nothing else !!!
Note: You need at least version 2.4.38 of Boeffla-Config V2 to allow all functionalities to be available.
Important: Manually disable battery optimisation for Boeffla-Config app in the rom settings (battery -> battery-optimisation)
as on OOS 4.5.x a suspected bug does not let the app do that for you although the app tries !!!
Features:
Support of anykernel concept (only latest kernels) - flash stock kernel before flashing Boeffla
Full integration with Boeffla-Config V2 (you need at least version 2.4.38 or higher !!!) configuration app (get it from http://www.boeffla.de) to configure all kernel settings
Dash charging fully supported
The two CPU clusters (big and little cpu) can be configured completely separate in terms of min/max frequencies, governors and CPU core profiles
Additional governors: none yet, but planned
Additional schedulers: fiops, bfq, sio, sioplus, fifo, vr, tripndroid and zen
Underclocking CPU and GPU supported
No CPU overclocking and voltage interface, no GPU overclocking and voltage interface (not planned too)
GPU boost implemented (4 levels)
CPU core profiles to restrict number of CPU cores being used (the OP5 does not hotplug based on load)
Notification LED control (effect + speed for blinking/fading, brightness for continuous notification like battery charging etc.)
Dynamic FSync (activated if screen on, deactived if screen off), configurable
Input boost frequencies and duration configurable per CPU cluster, input boost switch
Show CPU frequency usage per CPU and frequency in Boeffla-Config
Show current CPU core frequencies in realtime (note: other apps than Boeffla-Config will likely display wrong information on offline cores as they are not up-to-date yet)
Show GPU frequency usage per frequency in Boeffla-Config
KCal V2 Color control
Swipe2wake gestures
Control haptic feedback of gestures (except fingerprint)
Swipe2sleep gestures
SD card read ahead buffer configurable (default increased to 1024 kB)
Ext4 File system tweaks (default to on, can be disabled)
Kernel logger (dmesg) configurable
CIFS support (module, do not mount inside /data, if you rooted with Chainfire SuperSu, make sure you uncheck the namespace separation in SuperSu app)
NFS read-only support (module)

Goodie. Let's see what we can do. As said, I make it very dependent on weather, so probably would not work out.
But hey, we can meet any time when there is nice weather somewhere, so many nice locations here
And sorry for the rest of the folks, back on topic now.
Andi
I'm up and running with new Kernel. Phone works much smoother now.
Thank you Andi.
Also I made small donation for your other project, to keep you up and running.
I encourage others to donate as well, every penny counts to keep our Lord busy with new OP5.
Cheers!!!

Great.
Then let's do that new journey together again
@all: Have a great weekend, I am off for now, just checking from time to time during the weekend.
So please help each other in case known issues appear, especially the ones using my kernels already on older devices should be able to help out a lot
Enjoy the weekend
Andi
Glad to see you here Since Galaxy S3
