Thank you for your work. Anyone can give a review about this kernel?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] 75markus:
works great for me !

great battery life, great performance, rock stable !

you can flash and forget, or finetune it for your needs, it´s up to you. it works great out of the box, too.

Finally moved from the 5 to 5T and installed this kernel as soon as I unboxed the phone. Fastlane on and this thing is flying! Thanks for your hard work, for both your version of TWRP and the kernel :good:
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Fleepgames:
Woah there! Just installed blu_spark kernel on my OP5T and this thing is just flying :o It's liquid smooth everything works. Thanks for this amazing work :)
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Mugetzsu:
This kernel is freaking awesome! Turned on fastlane and still got this SOT, also using FreedomOS with this.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] saccentekennedy:
Can someone point out where to turn on Fast lane? I've got kernel adiutor and EX manager and I can't see it anywhere?

---------- Post added at 01:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 PM ----------

Found it... Do I just set it as '1' to enable it?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Mugetzsu:
Yes. It made my phone very smooth and has a good SOT using FreedomOS.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Chaplan:
Yes, but you can tweak it further to your liking with threshold.

50 is the default value, lowering will make fastlane more agresive and setting it to a higher value will have the oposite effect.

Hi,

I've no wifi with the last build. I'm on RR

With 107 release, no problem.

Thank man for your work
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] saiprasadgawde:
Ok dude. No issues
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vtec303:
same no wifi on oos beta 5, reverted back to 107, cheers.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] eng.stk:
Use an updated ROM, latest LOS and OMNI are fine.

Something wrong on your install, wifi is fine (it's the same of r107 even).

Sent from my blu_spark'd OP5/5T
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] llvllaster:
For those who don't have wifi after installing the kernel.

I had the same issue until i followed the below steps.

1. Uninstall magisk by flashing the necassary zip via twrp.

2. Flash the kernel.

3. Flash magisk right after the kernel. (I always flash magisk v15.3)

4. Reboot your device.

Hope this solves your issue too.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vtec303:
many thanks for this mate but I have used blu_spark from a long time on 3,3t and now on 5t never had to uninstall anything, that's the beauty of this kernel that its smooth, fast, battery saving and bang on right for the device and doesn't conflicts with other apps and mods, Iam gonna flash rom again than flash r109 and see what happens but thanks for your help, cheers.

---------- Post added at 08:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:41 PM ----------

No problem I'm gonna flash the rom again and flash r109 hopefully will get sorted, cheers.

How do I get better idl drain?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Asv97:
This image won't help.We need BBS logs.

You may try switching your sim from lte to 2g while not in use.Check if any app is causing unnecessary wakelocks.

Ideal idle drain should be between 0-0.5% per hr.

Edit:Just realized that you were the one who was being salty yesterday and blaming the kernel for no reason.Please provide some stats about what you have installed on your device or maybe some logs.Posting some random screenshots ain't gonna help.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Chaplan:
Well done, swap number 3 for 2 and add 1.1- Flash ROM full zip and that's a sticky right there.

Kernel always last, as stated in the OP.

Reason of 1, although to be honest I hardly ever do it but always tell users in trouble to, is to get rid of the magisk modules that mess with mount points and derp Wi-fi module.

It also gets rid of the stock boot.img that might be stock or something else depending when magisk was flashed.

On your current flashing order that's blu_spark getting backed up, not stock boot.img. No biggie, but people that flash other kernels... I think this pretty much explains it.

Clean boot.img is always a great advice. :good:

Wild description, right on spot.

Is the dev paying enough? ?

It got derped somehow but you will nail it down for sure. Perseverance always wins, as a long time user you should know that Wi-fi always works out of the box. No wonky builds get released ever.

All good, nahh good is lame, GREAT with r109 both on custom and OOS fronts. :angel:
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] eng.stk:
By the way, you forgot to tell how much the ROM guys are paying for the posts, I'll double it on the spot :fingers-crossed:
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Critical Detox:
I have returned once again in just 24hrs, It's apparently necessary to reiterate the rules for you all.

I want to take the moment and link the forum rules here at XDA, I encourage you all to look them over and reacquaint yourselves to them. Given the circumstances between this post and yesterdays from myself, I recommend giving rules 2.1, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 10, and lastly 15 a closer look and follow accordingly.

With this being a Development thread, Discussions should pertain to said development, Whilst also using available threads/sections to discuss any issues and etc.

Should I need to come back after this notice, Things will be handled on a more individual basis.

Let's keep the peace,

Thank you.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Chaplan:
Totally.

They couldn't afford me, they tried though. ?

So double of zero means squat. Dammit.

Probono it is. All in the name of transparency.

But I stand by it, OMNI blu_sparked, best combo in town, no going wrong.

Still, no pay no game... worst reports from now on.

Blaim BT streaming for idle drain and my restless use of the device for the given SOT, bad kernel, bad bad kernel.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] LordDeath:
I am using this kernel on OOS Open Beta 5 and did not change any of its default settings. I noticed the following performance regression:

Whenever my podcast app (Pocket Casts) finds a new HD video episode which is quite big (700+ MB) the entire device gets unresponsive until that download is done.

The download speed is usually above 10 MB/s and sometimes it downloads two of these episodes at once.

This 5T has MUCH faster storage than my previous Nexus 6 and its WiFi is approximately twice at fast. The old device did not choke at this task. :eek:

Is this an characteristic of the 'zen' I/O-scheduler? Should I change it to one of the others? Or is there an other I/O related setting that I should try to tweak?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Paz9:

Running r109 on 5.0.4 ?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] eng.stk:
Smells like something with that app. Storage always was top notch on Oneplus devices and I never seen anything similar.

Also keep in mind that you are using beta sw. Although I don't have none, lags and slowdowns are known to exist in latest Open Betas, just browse the forums.

Don't do that mate :good:

Holly Molly how do you get this SOT ? Let me guess you don't use any Google service or just 5% brightness all the time. The max I could get is 5h30 with average of 60% brightness and 10% battery left. I am on r109 ob5
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Chaplan:
I use adaptative brightness, not a fixed value, display is the biggest battery hog so, always on top on the battery stats.

Why make it brighter than needed if i'm not on direct sun light?

I don't restrict Google services or apps, I rely on Google apps most of the time. Gmail, hangouts, G+, keep, maps... endless list.

I'm using the device that's all, even to play games.

Don't really do anything wonky to get this stats.

But mileage may vary, that's certain.

Now let's get those wakelocks blocked and give it another spin. ?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Paz9:
109 is so far the best kernel for me

Amazing performance and battery and I've tried almost all kernels

Well done eng.Stk you have achieved god like status
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Umgak:
For some reason, I'm having some strange image corruption when I use blu_spark. Tested with blu_spark r107 and r109, on a OnePlus 5T running OOS 5.0.4. This only appears to occur for images taken with the phone in portrait, not in landscape, and occurs in both the stock camera app and Open Camera, but not in imgur or Snapchat. If you could look into this, it'd be swell.

I can't attach images yet, but the imgur ID YoExY93 is an image affected by this corruption. The color changes from image to image, sometimes yellow, sometimes, red, sometimes green, sometimes grey or white, but is always at the bottom of the image.

Problem occurred for me with no modifications to the phone other than installing blu_spark TWRP 8.73 and blu_spark r109.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] c_86:
Maybe that's because (as stated many times before) anything over 102 is meant for 8.1 OOS. 5.0.4 is based off 8.0

This build in particular is a beast. :)

Hey [MENTION=3873953]eng.stk[/MENTION]

Thanks for your time and effort.

Any chance you could upload your tool-chain that you built this kernel with??

Thanks.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] LinuxNewb:
[MENTION=3873953]eng.stk[/MENTION] - Love this kernel and works with crDroid beautifully! Doing a full charge now to test battery life with other changes that I made (one was adding "wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=180" to build.prop).

Had a quick question though. Any plans to update kernel to Linux 4.4.126? Currently on 4.4.78.

P.S Was looking at logs and noticed an error that can't find much info on.

android.hardware.thermal@1.0-impl

Couldn't load thermal module (No such file or directory)

The file appears to be in /system/vendor/lib64/hw.

There seem to be quite a few other warnings or errors regarding /system/bin/hwservicemanager as well... Seems odd but not sure if it's really a problem or not.

[MENTION=3873953]eng.stk[/MENTION] hey man, finally got time to find you. i wasnt being much active or flashing anything on my phones since my nexus 5's wifi/bt chip got burned, it passed 2 years :eek: :eek:. now, im preparing to buy next phone, either galaxy s10 or pixel 3. im wondering if you ditched blu_spark for google phones as i see you are using oneplus 5T. i really dont want oneplus phone because its too big and clumsy for me, galaxy s9 size is perfect for me. and im thinking like, if im going to buy a phone, i would like to buy a phone which could have blu_spark on it. :D
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] eng.stk:
Nope I prefer stability and add/change stuff that brings value to UX. I'm not into build bumps.

As for the rest not kernel related.

Hey mate, good to see you here :)

Yeah I know, hard to find 5" phones nowadays, it's known I cry for an OPX style phone also...

As for google phones I was done with it after N6, not my thing anymore.

Samsung is too much dollar and I don't like curved displays.

So I'm sticking with OnePlus awesome stuff.

I also have a Honor View 10 developer unit that was sent to me, soon to be blu_spark'd but it has the size issue so shouldn't be an alternative for you either.

People that like normal phone sizes are stuck in Android at the moment I guess.

Thanks again OP!

Hi,

Thanks for your kernel. It works very well. Could you add fix for low voice recording during video? This issue occurs with Oxygen OS and it is fixed in other kernel.

Thanks.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Deltalfa:
Want this fix too. Also theres a way to enable double tap to wake?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Zackptg5:
[MENTION=3873953]eng.stk[/MENTION]

Not sure if this would be something you'd consider or not, but could you add call recording enable to the oos kernel? This could be added to init.rc or init.blu_spark.rc or whatever:

service Native_Call_Recording /system/bin/sh -c "settings put global op_voice_recording_supported_by_mcc 1"
seclabel u:r:shell:s0
user root
oneshot
disabled

on property:sys.boot_completed=1
start Native_Call_Recording

Thanks!

isnt call recording already a feature of OOS?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Zackptg5:
Yes but it's disabled in some countries. This force enabled it every boot
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] marf28101995:
There is a magisk mod for that

Just use it
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Zackptg5:
Lol, I help out with that :)

I found that you can just make an rc file with the content I previously posted, copy that file to /vendor/etc/init, and it'll work every time. You need it to run when boot is completed and this is the best way to do that. The magisk module uses a sleep command but that's a guessing game and boot time varies by device hence the mixed results
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Chaplan:
Voice call recording feature on OOS is defined by the OEM per location because on many countries it's unconstitutional, so legal issues arise from such practice without consent from the other party in question.

There is a thread on XDA already with plenty of ways to achieve such a feature on OnePlus devices, (of which you are aware of by the looks of it) Hacking although possible should stay in the sphere of self knowledge of the law and practices of the country/state one is at any given moment, thereby a conscious option made by the user.

Bottom line, users won't be breaking the law based on a biased kernel build or OEM release with or without self knowledge and consent unless they hack it themselves with the tools already widespread, even on play store, and there by be totally self responsible for such practice if not inline with the law.

Which in the end and with all things considered makes way to much sense.

Or should the users who shouldn't be using it install something to disable it if it was rolled out globally and blindlessly on kernel :confused:
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] M3drvr:
Not to be a stiffer, but wasn't OB5 pulled by OP this past weekend? Technically....OB4 is the latest official beta out currently. But correct me if I'm wrong. It wouldn't be the first time.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Chaplan:
Fake news already corrected by OnePlus.

No OB builds were pulled intentionally from the download page, makes a lot of sense because system updater never stopped serving them.

OB5 is the latest oficial OB for the 5T, at least for a couple of hours since OB8 is out for the OP5 already.

It will cease being the latest soon, technically you will be partially right in no time. :highfive:
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Zackptg5:
Fair enough. Being from the US, I get why they have it disabled by default here as legality varies between states (I think it's legal in all states though, only the party consent rules differ). Anyways, thanks for the explanation

Does this Kernel have the ability to change the default volume? The max volume of OnePlus 5T is just too low for Headphones.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] saiprasadgawde:
No.. Will never be implemented as far as i know. Volume output through headphones depends on headphone build. I have very good output with stock OOS values
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] M3drvr:
Had this issue for a bit. Eventually discovered that since OB4, headphones had separate volume from system volume control. Turned headphone volume all the way up, and phone volume was the same. Suddenly, volume was back to normal and not quiet. Definitely not a kernel issue.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] saiprasadgawde:
Did anyone notice that the volume rocker option in OB6 to adjust media volume or ringtone volume doesnt change using custom kernel (tried bluspark, new and flash kernels). It changes ringtone volume only. May be kernel side changes are needed.

Can anyone confirm if it works as it should on stock kernel.

Nevermind it is broken on stock OB6 also.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] konsolite:

Is possible to control vibration strength by OS not only by kernel? Now kernel breaks OS vibration settings.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] saiprasadgawde:

Exactly, I rock honor 8 with 5.2" screen and its really nice size. Ofc I would like it to be narrower to use it with one hand but wtf is wrong with this notches. Galaxy s9 is perfect screen size for body ratio, feels really great in hand, it's maybe a little bit too tall. But those prices, €850 for pixel 2 in my country. :eek: so I'm really like you, stuck with nothing to go to. I kinda like essential phone, because it has the most practical notch style (using less screen estate) but it's like ghost haha. I would really like to go with Google because of support and hardware etc but price is really out of the space. Don't know what to doooo. But thanks for the "guidelines". I really miss my Nexus 5, oh that sexy design. :( :D

I've tried using blu_spark r109 on my OnePlus 5T with LineageOS 15.1 09/04/2018 build. After dirty flashing LOS and then blu_spark everything works on first boot but after a reboot Wi-Fi stops working and the phone lags and freezes. After 1 to 2 reboots from recovery it suddenly works again. I used the custom version as stated. Anyone else with this issue?
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] vk_singh:
which version of blue_spark for oxygen os 5.0.4
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] eng.stk:
Whatever you got there it's hardly kernel related. Custom ROMs change a lot from week to week, if you want stability stick to OOS.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] :
That's really not hard to find out when you look at the OP.
[OnePlus 5T  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] Macusercom:
Thanks for replying. I know flar2 from ElementalX had issues due to several rebases in LOS 15.1 in every version making LOS-based ROM compatibility confusing.

I used blu_spark on OOS 4.7.6 and it worked great. Could simply be an issue with the latest LOS 15.1 build. But as you choose not to support custom ROMs I'll have to figure it out on my own :p

Anyway, thanks for the kernel. If I were on OOS it definitely could be a daily driver for me but as so many people are enjoying i without issues, I really have to say that I appreciate your great work :)
