Known BUGS!
Post reports, i will fix.
Standard disclaimer:
By installing this kernel YOU will take full responsibility for any damage to your device!
Hardware or software! no one forcing you to install it.
So please do not blame me if you read wrong! or didn't read at all the instructions that i have written for YOU.
But you can feel SAFE to use it, as I test every release on my phone!
Before I publish it for download.
Your warranty will be void by installing custom kernel as my.
Kernel Sources:
KERNEL GITHUB
TO DOWNLOAD GO DOWN!!! YES MORE DOWN...(do i need to repeat?)
How To Install:
You will need to have device with Latest Recovery installed! Please install the 3.1.1.x BUILD!
>>>Here is the Recovery you need!<<<
Old recovery can corrupt your DATA partition as my kernel using latest F2FS driver. new recovery has updated driver.
YOU MUST UNLOCK OEM BOOTLOADER!!! OR YOU WILL BE STUCK ON BOOT!
Refer to other threads for recovery install process and for oem bootloader unlock.
Download kernel, upload it to your SDCARD, anywhere.
Always have STOCK Kernel for your ROM!
Reboot to Recovery.
THINK AGAIN! did you made backup? NO!!!!??? DO IT NOW!
If you had any other Custom kernel, Install STOCK kernel or dirty flash your ROM,
to clean any trace from other kernel. then install ROOT/Magisk if you wish! then install my kernel ALWAYS THE LAST.
Do not clean any cache or dalvik (needed for ROM only!).
Reboot!
If you wish to UNINSTALL my kernel, there is a uninstaller ZIP for you.
it's will remove all ramdisk changes, and install last 4.1.6 stock kernel, preserving ROOT if was installed!
Have Fun and report.

One for ME :silly:
Some INFO:
ONLY for OP3T!!! do not do this for OP3 model!
If you have Verity Alert on boot that says it's not enforced. and you like to fix it!
Here is how to by @RyperX and @Leicxan
Download modem + firmware 4.02 and the 4.1.6 here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/firmware-modem-collection-flashable-zips-t3565535
Reboot to Recovery!
Connect your device to PC with USB cable.
1. Install modem 4.0.2
2. boot to fastboot/bootloader (from recovery menu)
3. apply the 2 commands in this order ("fastboot oem disable_dm_verity", then "fastboot oem enable_dm_verity") using fastboot exe file in your PC
C:\Users\admin>fastboot oem disable_dm_verity
...
OKAY [ 0.031s]
finished. total time: 0.032s
C:\Users\admin>fastboot oem enable_dm_verity
...
OKAY [ 0.032s]
finished. total time: 0.034s
C:\Users\admin>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4. reboot directly to recovery again using the volume keys and then power key to select recovery!
5. flash modem 4.1.6! or 4.1.7!
6. reboot
Warning of the verity not enforced is gone.

And one more for me

Great you are here
Lets get the OP3t the same lifetime as our LG G2 had

Let the game begin....

Hmm definitely interesting... Will check this kernel out! Nice work by the way...

Happy to see it public ?
Sent from my OnePlus 3T using XDA Labs

Seems amazing!

Congratulations buddy [emoji111]

Congratulations man

Thank you so much.

Daym, how many kernels did you combine into this ? xDD

nice nice nice .... waiting long time for this
good job

want to try it....on my op3t
long long long time ago i had this awesome kernel on my Samsung S3.......Damn.....long time ago
Thanks Dori for the Nougat release
cheers

Can this be made for the op3?

It's a unified build working perfectly on the OP3.

@dorimanx just wow.
I have never encountered this kind of smoothness with my op3. I'm using Open Beta 18.
Not sure how this kind of level of buttery smoothness is even possible to achieve.
Hands down, this kernel is on whole another level of smoothness for op3.
Thank you so much! Any plans to support LineageOS?
Edit: CPU governor was set to performance by default but still very well performing kernel

First LG G2 with the Dorimanx power and finally with OP3, back to the heaven.

Changelogs
While searching the Internet you might also find versions which aren't listed here: these are Beta versions and their changelog isn't available (but included in the one of the next stable version, so you don't miss anything).
All the changes I made are listed on GitHub.
Version 2.4.2
Code:
- update sdcardfs
- updated build scripts and recovery scripts
- changed toolchain to a better version (Linaro Android gcc 6.3.1)
- widely improved ramdisk scripts
- updated ramdisk to latest version from RR with 7.1.2 support
Changelogs for previous versions:
Version 2.4.0
Code:
- updated with latest Linux patches
- various fixes (including thermal management and network communication)
Version 2.3.0
Code:
I'm constantly working to provide a better kernel. This implies a lot of research, testing and stressing my eyes staring at code. I'm adding a lot of small fixes.
So, try to understand me if I don't always have time to report a changelog.
As always, you can check GitHub for a detailed changelog.
Version 2.2.1
Code:
Sorry if I didn't write down a changelog for the last releases, I've been quite busy.
Anyway: since version 2.1.6b there are a LOT of changes, performance, battery, stability... Just check it out (and check GitHub for a full changelog).
Version 2.1.6b
Code:
- updated busybox and sqlite3 binaries with more convenient versions
- changed optimizations, enabled safety features and possibly fixed f2fs cryptography
- getting ready for the Synapse restyling
- build the kernel uncompressed
The latter fix solves most lagging issues and noticeably improve performance over compressed version; I'll look into the kernel size issue soon!
Version 2.1.5
Code:
- ramdisk rebased over RR's one
- kernel size reduced
Version 2.1.4
Code:
- updated interactive governor with Samsung optimized version
- implemented the AMOLED flicker free patch
- updated ramdisk for both herolte and hero2lte to the one from latest LineageOS builds
- updated ramdisk to be compatible with SlimROM (untested)
- removed a few redundant tweaks
- fireactive it's on its way to debut, but still disabled because incomplete, sorry :(
Version 2.1.2
Code:
- init: added a few tweaks
- ramdisk: changes in sepolicy
- ramdisk: try to fool safetynet and fix wakelocks
- updated to DQBO kernel source
- fstab: reworked mount options
- fs: add exfat support
- fs: implement optimised and stable f2fs (from oneplus/QC8996_N)
- enabled Swap (I had the idea while looking into the OP3 sources)
Version 2.1.0
Code:
Many beta versions came before this one, and all of them had their list of fixes... I'll try to summarize:
- some configs were tweaked
- enabled init.d support
- Synapse support
- implemented elementalx
- various fixes
- faked Knox 0x0 and try to hide from SafetyNet
- switched back to cfq as default scheduler
- probably other stuff I can't remember now... I need to sleep ahahah
Version 1.2.4
Code:
- temporarily reverted to Linux 3.18.14 (and so fixed the video playback issue)
- updated mount options to reduce I/O overhead
- tweaked the kernel configuration to have better performance
- enabled additional compression algorithms and cryptography utilities
Version 1.2.3
Code:
- updated zen sched driver to version 1.1
- SELinux is now set to Permissive by default
Version 1.2.2
Code:
- now using zen as default I/O scheduler
- changed the default frequency range for the CPU
- updated to Linux 3.18.17 (still working to bring the latest patches)
- switched to a custom Makefile optimised for our architecture
Version 1.2.0
Code:
- overclock and underclock support for both CPU and GPU
- voltage control (see notes in the OP [B][**][/B])
- moved to Uber Toolchain 7.x (aarch64-linux-android-7.x)
- improved recovery installation script
Version 1.1.0

[TUTORIAL] How to set up your phone with f2fs
1) First you have to install a compatible recovery. Recent TWRP releases can format and mount f2fs, but they don't handle a few installation scripts correcty. I recommend TWRP 3.0.2-4 by @lyapota which has the correct patches. You can find it here.
2) Then you have to backup all your data (internal storage will be wiped too, so make sure to copy ALL your files in the INTERNAL storage). So, any TWRP backup should be taken on external SD card.
3) After this, reboot into TWRP. From Wipe / Advanced Wipe check only /data, then select Change Filesystem and check f2fs. Do the same for /cache. At the moment I don't think there are ROMs that support f2fs on /system too (LineageOS, for example, forces ext4 and formats despite settings).
4) Reboot into recovery once again, so we're sure that it can mount everything.
5) At this point you're done. Flash your ROM of choice, this kernel, any GApps and whatever you want.
Reboot and profit!
ROMs supporting f2fs formatted /system will be listed here when available.

cool

I tried this on RR and saw for so good. I built-it into my RR build to get it to boot and love the different governors and features.

So cool, thank you !

I completed a new release with some stuff added:
Code:
- overclock and underclock support for both CPU and GPU
- voltage control (see notes in the OP [B][**][/B])
- moved to Uber Toolchain 7.x (aarch64-linux-android-7.x)
- improved recovery installation script
The note i refer to, in short, says that voltage control is implemented but not reachable by the user.
Next steps in this kernel development are complete access to GPU overclock and voltage control, followed by latest Linux patches and eventual requests by the users.
Have a nice day

Magisk doesn't work on AOSP Roms ?

Really cool ROM how ever it removes SuperSU on AOSP extended and you will need to reflash however since flashing this it seems my audio stuttering while in apps has I believe disappeared will test further hope to some sound config's (Faux sound or alternative if possible) keep up the good work

I tried 1.2.0 on my g930w8 with RR and it won't boot. Gets stuck on the RR logo. I even tried clean flash and still won't boot. Yesterday I build the kernel directly into RR and it booted but since the change to 7.0 toolchain I can't even build because I am on Mac which Uber 7.0 doesn't support.

Works for me, I'm using the latest RR on my G930W8 (apk3 bootloader) and I dirty flashed 1.2.0.

Yeah wonder what's going on. I am on same boot loader/modem and couldn't get it to work with 1.2.0.. I tried dual boot and even installing RR as main ROM and wouldn't work. I actually had to copy and use my boot.img from 02/26 that contained the OPs source built-in to get boot. If it works for others on official RR, maybe it's something with my custom build. I do use the same manifest as 8890dev. Thanks for letting me know.

W8 here as well had no problem just flashing kernel over everything I already had.. was first release. Waiting on new update assuming it's being uploaded cause download link don't work

New release announcement
New release uploaded while I finish some stuff. I spent yesterday on the Linux patches but I will have to do some "tricks" to make them work... and it's a long work.
Version 1.2.2
Code:
- now using zen as default I/O scheduler
- changed the default frequency range for the CPU
- updated to Linux 3.18.17 (still working to bring the latest patches)
- switched to a custom Makefile optimised for our architecture

Nice bro Thanks! No hurry BTW quality over quantity any day! Just happy for a new kernel for 7.1!!!

Good to see new kernel for s7, which app can I use with this kernel? Synapse ?

I need exposed. and 4.x.x is still bugged. in beta state. i will move to it after some time, it's the only way
But for now i enjoy this monster device with super stable ROM. why to search for problems?
Many think as me. and not all moved to 7.x you will see

I am just flashing stock 3.5.4 because of your kernel <3 thanks for bringing it here .

Really happy to see you here with your awesome work. My g2 is still running your Kernel like a champ.

Appreciate the MM support!!!!

Also follow the master from G2 to 3T
Just downgrade my 3t from nougat for xposed and this kernel jumped out!
Thanks master Dori for this great kernel, everything runs very well for now.
only thing I noticed is that button led can't turn off now?
The most stable 0.1 version I've seen
btw can I format cache to F2FS with this kernel? or does that make any sense?
Thanks again.

Been very pleased with your kernel in G2 days, I'm sure this one also live up to expectation... Unfortunately I'm using N now, so I'll keep on watching until Xposed for N is released... Keep up the good work! :good:

Here we are......

Woow! I've used your kernel on my G2 days. Gonna try this out on the weekend. thanks dori!

I noticed that button led can't turn off now also.

New kernel , i'm going to test now

Tried both with my S8 ROM port.
Boots very slow
When devices i booted it takes some seconds till phone freezes and than reboots!

Sorry, my fault. MTweaks was still running what interfered.
Flashed v1.4 with stock GPU drivers. running fine so far but boot time is still longer than with other kernels.
Could you add a global slider to under volt CPU and GPU by a certain value?
EDIT:
In Synapse at "Game Tuner MOD" and "Utility" tab the last few settings are not in englisch

The global slider is hard to implement, because of the UI structure of Synapse.
If you are not comfortable with the Voltage setting, you can get the desired result by returning to Synapse after setting in MTweaks. If you do not know what I mean, try it.
What if it takes a long time to boot? If it is a symptom that only takes longer in the first Bootanimation, it will not be a problem from the second since it recreates the dalvik (ART) cache for some reason.
If it takes a long time to boot each time, it may be because used the G935F ramdisk in this kernel. I tried BatmanROM, but I did not have the problem you said.
In the next version, i will separate ramdisks by variant like v1.3.0.
Korean in the Gametuner-MOD and utility tabs are donation-only functions.
I will translate English donors if they say inconveniences.

Ok, tried that with MTweaks and noticed that it was already under volted by my previous settings.
Noticed that there is no tab to disable wakelocks. Do you plan to add this?

Kernel-level wakelocks work when requested by an Android system or app.
It is not desirable to force such requests to be ignored.
My Note4 kernel has a wakelock tab. However, it was added because of the deep-sleep problem in some variants of Note4.
If there is a deep sleep (wakelock) problem in our S7, I will add a wake-lock tab.
Again briefly, the wakelock control should not be abused. So, if there are no related problems, I will not add them.

update to v1.5.0

Thanks for supporting AOSP! ?

After flashing 1.5.0 I'm still at 1.4.0 :/

If flashing was completed and there were no errors, it is not possible.
If you rooted or unrooted the kernel after flashing, the old kernel would have been restored.
If you do not know, Flash the kernel after rooting.

Indeed, I rooted after flashing the kernel, thank you ^-^

you do a fantastic job with all the feature you added in your kernel(thunderplug,eas, pwm flicker free, etc...). v15 is very recommended

Hey man, thanks for this kernel! I tried it on AOSP for RR which boots but I noticed that flashing this kernel, disabled the option to adjust vibrate intensity. The option in Sound is there but Settings Force Closes when clicking on it. The reason I need to adjust it, is the vibration is back to really strong vibration when touching a key. Hope this details helps. On latest Prime 1.5.0

Introduction
Oxygen Kernel is based on stock Samsung source code taken from Samsung Opensource Release Center with sole aim to provide better performance, stablity and battery backup than stock kernel. A kernel tells the hardware in your Android device how to behave, kind of like your mommy tells you how to behave. You can modify how fast your processor runs by over or under clocking it or optimize your system for battery life.
Oxygen Kernel is always up-to-date with latest patches from kernel.org
Known for maximum stability and smooth performance
All the Source Code is available on github
Kernel Info

SAFETYNET: Green
SELINUX: Permissive
TOOLCHAIN: Google's GCC 4.9
Compatible ROMS
All AOSP 8.1 and 9 ROMs
All OneUI Pie based ROMs
All Touchwiz 8.0 and 8.1 ROMs
Features
Here are the major features of the kernel (feel free to explore Github)
Up to date with the latest stable Linux version
Full -Ofast build with graphite optimisations
Removed a lot of useless debug and logging options

Spectrum Support
Samsung Hotplug
CRC Control
And many more!
These features are only available through Oxygen Control App
Download Oxygen Control from Github Releases
Warning: If you come from some other custom kernel or have any issues, you should dirty flash your ROM before flashing Oxygen Kernel to avoid problems.
Reflash ROM -> Flash Oxygen Kernel --> Flash Magisk if you want to root
If you are upgrading between Oxygen Kernel versions, just flash the kernel zip. Also uninstall or clean data of any kernel control app you're using.
Going back to stock: You can backup your boot.img with TWRP before flashing Oxygen Kernel and restore the backup whenever you want to revert.
1] This kernel removes forced encryption, if you face "encryption process failed" error upon reboot then you need to format /data. This is generally needed if you are installing this kernel on stock tw rom.
2] In OneUI Pie ROMs you may get a warning at boot saying "There's an internal problem with your device". You can safely ignore this warning and causes no harm. It's due to some mismatching KNOX/mobicore stuff. I'll fix it soon.

Yes I installed it on my j7Fn with revolution rom, no bugs.

can anybody tell me about J7 2016 stock nought rom rooting process plz

DarkLord1731 an excellent work, I have been testing it for several days and there are many improvements that for the moment and perceived.
But I have a small bug ... I have an unlock pattern configured that when I am connected to the Wi-Fi network, I do not ask for it every time I lock and unlock the screen, when I turn off Wi-Fi if you ask me every time ... someone more with this problem? (G translate)
Rom RevolutionOS 5.0.1

I might have found a bug, or maybe it is just silicon lottery. When i set my gpu to max freq 1146, it stops working completely it says 0 Mhz and fps drops immediately.

/* Details */
- Fully rebased kernel without unnecessary OnePlus' code -
This kernel is not based on stock OxygenOS kernel source provided by OnePlus. Instead, it’s based on the latest and greatest Qualcomm has to offer. Only the necessary parts from the OnePlus kernel has been cherry-picked, such as OnePlus 7 specific device drivers.
This brings 2 major changes: less debugging code and an overall lighter kernel.
There are miscellaneous changes made by OnePlus that are supposed to maximize utilization of system memory. But seeing how it’s implemented(heavily relying on zram and a physical writeback swapfile), I decided to remove it entirely.
Users are recommended to disable the “RAM Boost” feature from Settings > System > RAM Boost.
Due to the completely different base, the memory management with this kernel will be drastically different from other kernels.
- Latest CAF msm-4.14 kernel fully merged -
This kernel is also constantly merging the latest Qualcomm Android 4.14 kernel. This tag contains more up-to-date changes from Qualcomm than the regular Snapdragon 855 tag(sm8150).
- Use CONFIG_HZ = 300 -
This changes the context switching interval from 10ms to 3.33ms. Pixel used this for years and Google recommends other vendors to do the same for less jitter.
This is even more important on displays with higher refresh rates.
- Optimized power configuration -
Stock OnePlus configuration forces display-related processes to use the Gold cluster(formerly known as big cores) exclusively.
This configuration brings a huge power regression since it makes every frame dispatch to wake up and use Gold cores.
This kernel resets this profile to use the configuration Google recommends, which is to use the Silver cluster(formerly known as LITTLE cores) exclusively instead. No performance penalty was noticed with this change while massively improving battery life.
- BBR as the default TCP network congestion control -
BBR is a (relatively)new TCP congestion control developed by Google, and it’s regarded as one of the best things you could do to your network configuration. You can find its benefits easily just by Googling BBR. I’ve been personally running BBR for months on various Linux machines including the server running arter97.com and it’s been great.
Now that our Android kernel is running v4.14, I’ve enabled BBR and backported other BBR changes from mainline.
/* Notice */
5G variant is unsupported.
Only OxygenOS is supported, but it is likely that the kernel will work with other ROMs. Though you may encounter minor issues.
Feel free to tip me which commits are needed to fix other ROMs.
/* f2fs */
OnePlus 7T and OnePlus 7T Pro users cannot use f2fs without involving heavy and risky repartitioning operations due to Dynamic Partitions.
r61+ allows using f2fs on OnePlus 7T and OnePlus 7T Pro.
This kernel fully supports f2fs for /data and I encourage everyone to use f2fs with my kernel for better performance.
See here as to why you might want f2fs.
The process differs with T and non-T series.
/* T variants */
The kernel now detects whether the userdata is in f2fs format and patches fstab on boot for OnePlus 7T and 7T Pro users during boot.
This is done in a volatile manner, which means your system files are not modified and using other kernels will revert the effect.
This is half of the puzzle.
The other half of the puzzle is to getting userdata partition into the f2fs format.
Due to lack of a proper recovery for the OnePlus 7T, I patched up f2fs-tools to support formatting while the Android is up and running.
You can use Franco Kernel Manager's flasher to flash the live-formatter.
This obviously removes all data on the device.
Please make sure your data is fully backed-up.
f2fs live-formatter:
https://arter97.com/browse/f2fs/liveformat
Existing f2fs users won't be affected by any of these changes.
Note that the OnePlus 7T and 7T Pro's OxygenOS has an issue handling FBE(File-Based Encryption) with f2fs(which is presumably why they left it out while the OnePlus 7 Pro had it), and encryption will be disabled when you use my kernel's f2fs live-patching feature.
Without encryption, your entire data will be in danger if you lose your device.
Please use f2fs if you understand this trade-off.
(Non-T series users can safely use f2fs with encryption.)
f2fs installation steps:
1. Download and install my kernel.
2. Download and install f2fs live-formatter.
OxygenOS OTA steps:
1. Install OTA and DO NOT reboot.
2. Download and install my kernel using Franco Kernel Manager.
3. Reboot.
Re-format into ext4 steps:
1. Use stock recovery and perform a factory reset.
Re-format into f2fs steps:
1. Use stock recovery and perform a factory reset and turn the userdata back to ext4.
2. Reboot to Android.
3. Download and install f2fs live-formatter using Franco Kernel Manager.
/* Non-T variants */
TWRP is not integrated to the kernel.
Please use a TWRP installer to install TWRP on top of my kernel.
To use f2fs, simply format /data to f2fs with TWRP.
Afterwards, flash f2fs-optimize.zip from http://arter97.com/browse/f2fs/optimize
There’s no need to flash separate zip files for replacing f2fs-tools or fstab.
/* Disclaimer */
Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this kernel
before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. Hard. A lot.
/* Thanks to */

nathanchance - for android-linux-stable
/* Instructions */
1. Read the above. Please.
2. Flash the zip file from your existing TWRP recovery.
2.1. FK Kernel Manager also works for installation. EXKM is unsupported and reported to brick the device due to installation failures.

I'll be the first. Just formatted my device and rooted it, first kernel im going to test!

Wow, very interesting changelog, will be interesting to see how it performs and what others think!
Conflicting decisions between kernel devs it seems on some features, like ZRAM for example.
Looking forward to flashing

Looking forward to flash, there's no klapse support right?
Edit: Damn this kernel is snappy AF ?

Congrats on this release!

Finally arrived! waiting for it since I know you are about to build one for op7pro.

Did you still flash the f2fs-optimise zip in the OP?

I'm not using F2FS.

Asop or OOS only kernel?

/* Notice */
Both OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro is supported.
Only OxygenOS is supported, but it is likely that the kernel will work with other ROMs. Though you may encounter minor issues.
Feel free to tip me which commits are needed to fix other ROMs.
Android Q beta is not supported and I’ll not spend my time adding support for it.
Do not ask for premature Android Q beta support.
