I also lose my Wi-Fi with R8.

Must then .cid.info and .wifiver.info exchange again (data/misc/conn)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Noxxxious:
Your roms probably use excessive wifi files. Otherwise provide a dmesg here to show your error.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] silitek:
Insane good kernel..boot very fast. Thanks buddy. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] bininga59:
I had that with R7 and also with no test version of you.

But no matter, it works:good:

The R8 is running really well - great job.:good::good::good:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Noxxxious:
Difference is that R8 should work fine and R7 and so on required additional files. So a dmesg after toggling wifi would be nice.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] bininga59:
We misunderstood.:o

R7 and the test kernels worked well.

For the R8 I had to exchange the files afterwards.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Barthlon:
can someone tell me what the differences are between r7 and r8, performance wise and regarding battery life? did someone already do some comparative testing of some sorts? :)

and is it really noticable in every day use, or is it mostly some under-the-hood optimisations in code?

cheers!

Hello, i just flash r8 on g950f with renovate ice 10.1 .. the problem is i try to unlock the phone even with fingerprint or any way i try i cannot it lags, i try to clear cache on twrp, restart the phone many times .. i clear mtweaks but same problem.. above i put a logcat fille.. might is not kernel's issue but after i flashed i noticed that bug on my phone. I upload the logcat on zippytshare cuz its 13mb and i cant upload it here ..

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] StonebridgeGr:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Noxxxious:
Have you rooted after flashing the kernel? Because the dalvik script wont execute otherwise, need to change this method.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] loris100:
I flashed this kernel on S9 Mwilky and Sac23 rom and everything works perfectly...Very fast boot and pretty smooth overall, i was using the kernel that comes with the rom and was a NX test kernel cant remember the exact version...Also love the OC feature, it doesnt change much but i get slightly more performance when needed, battery is still very good :highfive:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] nikoemo:
First of all, thank you for the great work, been using your kernel for a long time. But after i flashed last couple of versions, i think fixops18 and 21 and stable n8 my phone heats up in my pocket and has massive battery drain. When i use the phone at home everything seems to work fine and i don't notice any battery drain or overheat. But when i go out and just keep my phone in my pocket it overheats and drains.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] StonebridgeGr:
Yes I root after flash the kernel
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Noxxxious:
XDA is for stable releases, not for telegram

test

versions. Especially the tests that are not shared to the public such as 21.

Last but not least, I don't recommend port roms.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] nikoemo:
I'm sorry, found the beta 21 on alexisrom telegram group. I didn't know it was not public. I'm using your latest stable build and i have the problem that i stated above. My battery went from 43 to 20 in one hour, phone was just in my pocket. When the phone is out of the pocket it doesn't seem to overheat and drain the battery. I'm on soldier9312 4.0 oreo rom
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Noxxxious:
You should figure out what drains the battery for you in the pocket. Use apps such as wakelock detector, betterbatterystats to see what is going on.

The kernel is rock solid at the moment.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] nikoemo:
I will try that. Thanks

Thanks to the author for sharing! I talk about personal experience, R8 this kernel is very smooth, but the battery life is a bit worse than R7, especially when playing games, obviously heat, power consumption is very fast

Hi Noxxxious,

Don’t know why but i have issues with the wifi :S. It doesn’t turn on. When I try your two files in Data/misc/conn then it starts again but only 5G works great, no 2.4G networks. (even when i stand next to the router :crying:). in the same place a Galaxy S7, iPhone Se, another S8 work great with the same 2.4G signal. Don’t know what to do here:( it is my only issue otherwise great kernel :good::good:

btw: When i try ES file explorer with root rights i cannot see anything in Data folder:confused::confused:. I tried another root explorer then i was able to see the files. Really strange but this it might help someone else :).
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ayyyy lmao:
Hey noxx, I know that you don't do requests, but if possible and convenient, could you reconsider re-adding the cultivation governor? If you can't, maybe a new battery focused Governor (more so than interactive)?

Thanks for the kernel, I've been loving R8 so far!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Noxxxious:
Try to flash the restore wifi zip that is mentioned a few posts ago. What I can say is that WiFi is/must be fully functional like the stock kernel.

I will re-add it np
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] ayyyy lmao:
Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] taqla:
I started with the R7 and i had that issue (wifi not turning on). Then i placed the two files in data and i got the wifi back (5G good signal and very poor 2.4G signal). With r8 same thing happend again (wifi was not turning on) and i flashed the restore wifi zip and i got the 5g back again with very poor 2.4g signal :(
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Denfic:
Could it be that the link is broken .. ?? For Telegram ?? If not could someone send me a link to participate again ??
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Noxxxious:
Yes but the difference is that:

R7 - has a wifi workaround, uses extra files to make it work.

R8 - has wifi working as intended, no workarounds

So basically i'd say that your signal sucks. And if you dont't like the download/upload speeds you can always play around with the TCP settings.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] kyzn:
New favorite kernel for my S8. The deep sleep on this thing, it's on a level that I used to tweak with a kernel manager. Now it's just flash and go. :good:

R8 working well with Renovate Nightly R127. WiFi works out of the box but I had to reboot to "fix" the lag.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] taqla:
No, the signal is not the issue here (on the other phones it works fine). I tested a little bit more (flashed SoLdieR9312 rom) and it was working again with no issue. Then I came back to LightRom and it came back! So it is a rom issue I think. what i want to know is can I backup anything from the SoLdieR9312 rom to the Light rom to fix this issue?? is there a way?

if there is then we can fix every wifi issue :).
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Alexior:
for me r7 was better
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] nikoemo:
Well i couldn't figure out what was draining my battery in pocket so i flash soldier's patched kernel and the drain is gone. So it's definitely something with this kernel, at least with this version

Question is wifi working well on this version? And gps aswell?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] alec1po:
R8

- Rebased the kernel by filtering out bad changes for battery life, performance and so on.

- Updated to latest CRD source

- Fixed LED (hopefully definitely)

- Fixed WiFi (works like stock kernel)

- Mount system earlier to boot faster

- Added overclock for cluster1

- Fully Permissive (no longer fake enforcing)

I was always having trouble using this kernel with Renovate ROM while everybody were OK with this combo. After many attempts I find the cause - it is tasker .. while taker is trying execute some task (even basic task like wait or run shell command to emulate power button) it hangs on that task and phone becomes unusable .. apps are closed , there is huge lag ..When I switch tasker off everything is OK.. I have no clue why there is no problem when I use stock (Reno) kernel or use Noxxx kernel with i.e. Soldiers ROM..

I also installed busybox but it didn't help..

Anybody has any advice what I can do to make this combo running ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] voroxda:
Somebody else would say I'm a tasker power user. I have written 400 tasks 50 profiles and 30 screens. On my device every 5 minutes is running several admin Tasker scripts (with complex shell commands). May be our situation is comparable? I use this kernel and also Noxxxious test kernels (as long as the Telegram group exists). But one difference: I use Ambasadiis Oreo Rom.

I never faced such side effects. Therefore I guess your problem is not kernel related. Probably more ROM related or in combination Rom - busybox ?

Should - I upgrade from NX Kernel R7 to R8 ?

I have been using NX Kernel R7 which works perfectly

I have not encountered any bugs / problems myself at all !

I consider the phone to be very fast and responsive as a general rule

the _only_ time i have noticed a temporary significant amount of lag is when i use the search function

in app XPrivacyLua to look up an app, the actual keyboard will display maybe up to 3 whole ICONS

representing the last 3 keys i actually pressed, however this lasts no more than about 2 or 3 seconds absolute max

I cant say though wether this is a delay in the app or as a result of the Kernel, other than this, everything is very speedy/fast

Is there a benefit to me upgrading

Are there any energy saving comparisons between R7 and R8 ?

Great Kernel, love your work !

Hi! I want to use a custom kernel instead of stock. What is the difference in real life experience? There is another kernel called notoriuos.

Hi All,

What is the best way to install this kernel? Flash in TWRP, then flash root? Or should you install kernel first, reboot and the flash root? Is is recommended to wipe cache as well?

I'm using Ren 11.1 with Magisk.

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] kyzn:
I do flash kernel, flash root, wipe cache/dalvik and then reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] morpheus9394:
Thanks for the info :)

Update - Worked perfectly. Its always a bit scary flashing kernel but so far so good.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] jeebspawnshop:
This kernel requires nothing more than flashing the kernel, then root, then reboot. Do NOT wipe dalvik/cache - it is unnecessary and causes problems (at least on Reno Ice ROM).

I've flashed dozens of beta versions of NX kernel, and the ONLY thing I do is;

1 - Boot to TWRP

2 - Flash NX

3 - Flash Magisk 16.3

4 - Reboot

No problems, flawless.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Tecalote:
I am also new to Samsung S8+ and have a related question.

I flash this TWRP with Odin, right? :

https://eu.dl.twrp.me/dream2lte

I boot immediately to TWRP.

Before I do the steps 1-4 - should I format data (if I want to do backups with TWRP including data - is it necessary to format data, or not?)

I am familiar with Huawei Phones, but don't know much about Samsung. On Huawei data must not formatted if TWRP supports encryption/decryption.

I have latest Oreo Stock Firmware at the moment.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] morpheus9394:
I use the guide from this thread - https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/guide-how-to-install-twrp-root-galaxy-t3752480/page18

It worked perfectly for me. Just follow the instructions to the letter and you'll be fine. Once done you will end up with a rooted device with stock rom. You can then decide to put a custom rom and/or kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] Noxxxious:
R9 was nearly ready but then CRED has been released.

Well I came to the conclusion that I wont be using most of the CRED source changes and the changes after that. Will stick to the CRD7 source drop and merge only driver related changes in the future. The reason for not upgrading is because the new changes have a higher power consumption.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ Cross Device Development] raj.ayush78:
Excellent kernel. Very very fast and smooth in performance using in conjunction with google wiz rom(default kernel is this). Boot up time is incredibly fast. But overclocking gives me random reboots other than that it is excellent.

And srry if i am asking too much or if it can be done by kernel, can u provide screen on fast charging in the mext update?? That would be awesome.
