[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] arter97:
r70 is up and it's a major release.

Most notable thing is zswap + vbswap now being replaced with zram.

zram is backported from v5.12 kernel and customized for efficiency.

The new deduplication feature from zram will save hundreds of MBs of RAM, and it's customized to use the crc32c as the hashing algorithm as it's hardware-accelerated.

Also, writeback is customized and enabled to offload idle pages (i.e., really, really unused RAM) to the internal storage. As it's extremely slow to bring pages back from UFS, writeback code works quite conservatively. It'll start to writeback pages that hasn't been used for a day or two.

After 4 days of my personal usage, about 500 MBs are offloaded to the internal storage. IOW, I now have 500 MB more free RAM to enjoy.

Writeback will be done to the "swap" partition on the 7T series, or the inactive system slot. If your phone is using the "a" slot, writeback will be done to "system_b" partition.

TL;DR - r70 will save hundreds of MBs of RAM.

r70

zswap + vbswap replaced with zram

[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] ums1405:
Hi,

Am I safe to assume r70 is not for A11?
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Loercase:
Do these RAM optimizations stop OOS from killing my apps?
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] intp.pisces:
🤞🥲 I'm not even flashing A11 unless this guy drops something for it. Just wouldn't be complete
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Shyciii:
R70 version for a11 or a10?
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] dustindavidson900:
I just flashed Oxygen 11. Came here hoping to find new kernel for A11. Hopefully I don't have to wait too long.
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Ramalama:
r70a (beta) was a10, this here for sure either.

porting all stuff that he did to a11, requires many time and effort... and testings etc...

an i don't think that he noted everything down that he did with the a10 kernel.

Usually you forget or don't note anything, if you are time limited.

And he wrote that he is very time limited lastly, so in the end, don't expect an a11 kernel anytime soon.

Give him simply some time, as we all have a real life and he does it in his free time and not as main work.

So just have some pation. If you look clearly to the facts, aside from wanting just to have something new, a11 doesn't brings any exiting features that are that extremely important to get immediately an a11 kernel 😂

But arter should/could, maybe will, i can't talk for him, provide maybe some alpha/beta kernels, which he can do that doesn't costs a ton of time.

By the way, the kernel sources of a11 that oneplus provided are more as crappy either.

It's not 2012, where you had 500 devs, and random people, posting every second day, a new rom or daily a new kernel 😂

I don't know why the community died so much since then, but we need to keep all the developers that we have left and still doing some stuff like gold.

So this doesn't only goes for arter, it's for everyone else that still left too. Keep that in mind guys.

However, give that guy some time, be happy with what you got and have fun everyone 😘
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Flashaholic:
I don't think these stats are even legit.

You just starring at the display or what Apps you use ?
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] intp.pisces:
Maybe on the first day, before it 'settled'
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] giteshraheja:
Well it was one time only. I was reading a novel on chrome. 1 more thing see that android in 2nd pic with 6 %. This android is main culprit for draining. Usually android is half of screen. So in my case android is 1/6 th of screen, hence unrealistic battery. But next 50 % went really fast next day. Only squeezing 2.5 hr midnight.
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] dynospectrum:
Dude, reinstall the overlays then stop posting about overlays in a kernel thread. The kernel has nothing to do with your apps force closing from overlays.

I use Substratum/Swift Installer with no problem on this kernel.
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] fKm:
Question was if maybe the f2fs format is causing this but thanks for your help. What would XDA be without guys like you...

Now back to the topic :highfive:
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] khalisz:
Indeed I'm facing issues too, app freezing... so i think it's because of F2FS.

Nothing about the kernel, it's a good one ! :)
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] JhonEse:
is it likely to be stable in havoc rom?
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] theUchihaBrat:
I was using f2fs earlier and faced random app freezes. After that I reformatted /data to ext4 and the app freezes are still there although they have become less frequent.
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] theUchihaBrat:
Even HolyAngel the developer of Sky dragon kernel said that f2fs has issues with this device.
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Hirs_E_Fruit:
Well without an explanation why its worthless!

I say it performs better so HolyAngel is disproved, easy as that ;)
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] dekefake:
He's right, I tried androbench with ext4 before switching to f2fs, and f2fs has numbers a little worse than ext4, in every category
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] theUchihaBrat:
Looks like on some devices it performs better and on some worse than ext4
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] K4Y3R:
imho a benchmark score never tells the full story

after switching to f2fs it appeared to me slightly faster and overall more fluently, for example i couldnt use the custom gestures of oos, because they always lagged

after switching fo f2fs (and to arter kernel tbf) all is working without any hiccups
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] abhy27:
This is score from arter kernel with f2fs data system...post ur own score
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] ZLYWXD:
which sub do u use
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] marko94:
I really don't know why are you guys so obsessed with those bench apps etc.. just flash kernel, if it is smooth,stable and it has good battery use it..that is it
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Flash1337:
This is with ext4..

Dont know why you bother with these.

The war between ext4 vs f2fs will never end anyway.

Use what YOU like, anf be happy with that. :rolleyes:

idk if this a reported bug or not but the sound from earphones(wired ones) while using oneplus usb type-c converter is not coming properly while its was working properly on stock and skydragon kernel
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] khalisz:
Please read the OP, it has been reported.

[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Zhuang zhuang:
If arter have time to develop kernel for A11, I hope he will make for custom rom (YAAP, KangOS) because OOS 11 is really bad (both performance & battery life)

Awesome!!

Thank you so much!

Do I need to root oneplus 7t to use this custom kernel?
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Archie k:
Yes it is needed
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] nexus_vl:
No, just flash in TWRP
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] nexus_vl:
No it's not!
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] User NiNaNo:
Okay thanks yo. Also, if I unlock the 7t to install twrp then Netflix will not show as FHD right?
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Lossyx:
Don't install TWRP. You need to use root and use Franco Kernel Manager.
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Hw4ng3r:
Unlocking bootloader will put Widevine into L3 (standard def) in OOS 10
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Lossyx:
Not if you're on OOS 11.

Edit: guess that doesn't matter here since arter is only for OOS10
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] vhtq2017:
Hi everybody.

I am using oneplus 7 pro version 10.3.4 GM21AA. when i root the device i have full access to android system but when i flash r70 kernel i found 2 The system directories that cannot be mounted to r/o are system/product/App and system/product/pri-app. I want to know is it because of this kernel or because of twrp i use it or not, if because of twrp, is there any way i can convert data to f2fs using f2fs-liveformat and without using twrp on oneplus 7 pro, because the information is liveformat only for 7t and 7t pro.

Thank you
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] nekotitix:
Hi, for some reason, I find r70 to make the battery drain faster overnight, and my SOT went down from 8-9 hours to 6-7 approximately. Using latest OOS 10 update 10.3.8 (regular OnePlus 7).

Been using it since it's release.
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] vhtq2017:
Can you flash f2fs liveformat without using twrp(not T series)?
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] nekotitix:
I don't use f2fs because I didn't wanted to backup all my files and apps at the time.

Since it's understandably a little quiet, I hope you'll excuse this question: is there a way to disable the OOS11 upgrade notification? I won't switch until Arter kernel is ready, but I'm sick of looking at it.
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] nekotitix:
What I did personally is using an app called Disabler to disable system update app.
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Hw4ng3r:
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.oneplus.opbackup

or drop the adb shell if you're using Termux or similar directly from phone.
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] pxrave:

or disable for all users if you have multiuser :)

The Oos11 on 7t series has become much stable over time and 3-4 ota updates. There is almost no point on holding on to Android 10 anymore. Bluspark kernel A11 is good too but strongly suggest factory reset after update.

The ui and other things are better optimised in OOS11

First of all thanks a lot for your hardworking.

If I flash this on my op7 running 11 (oos) would I loss my TWRP recovery?

If so happened guys pls any solutions to get back TWRP?

Thanks
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Ayan Chakraborty:
This is probably the most foolish question in entire xda forum I think. A kernel operates from boot partition and not recovery partition. 😂😂😂. Therefore recovery partition stays unmodified
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] soh3l:
Are you insane blood?

I lost my TWRP while flashing a kernel just because of not flashing TWRP and magisk again.

This XDA forum not for showing dadagiri, Respect others' opinion you would be honoured, otherwise be silent but not barking like mad dog....

I think this is the most worst reply in the XDA you have replied .

I hope you have understood better.

And I don't expect any more such stupid reply from you in this forum.
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] Ayan Chakraborty:
Hey I was tickling u. 😅 Okay I am sorry 🙃 don't get mad now. It's safe to flash Os- Kernel from Twrp. Recovery has a seperate kernel of its own

Yeah kernel has to flashed in A/B seperately twice if ur into it. Otherwise just flash in the working boot partition
[OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, 7T Pro Cross Device Kernel D] VampireHeart:
Never happened that issue, probably you flashed a bad kernel or something wrong, bit the point is that r71 isn't for oxygen 11 but for 10 only.

Currently using Android 10 with your R70a1 kernel. As I understand it, (I could be wrong) but battery idle mode/passthrough charging is pure kernel code.... so thanks for that!!!!

Are your using it with OP7 Pro? Is it a OEM Battery? How did it work out for you... Any purchase links and photos ?

Good luck on this to you I am working as well and will post what I find
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sapphiress:
Picked up one of these today, we just started working on it a few minutes ago, I'll post the method once done. This could be hours, days, months, who knows, We do have fastboot and the Coolpad Kit from elsewhere on the forums so it shouldn't be hard. But we are working on it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sawclan22:
Same here I really want root, oddly for fastboot oem unlock it doesn't unlock , I have oem unlock enabled in developer options but when I run the command fastboot flashing unlock or fastboot oem unlock or pretty much any command besides fastboot getvar all it comes back with something like FAILED remote unknown command and I have no idea why I have the cool pad legacy/lithium cp3705a if anyone can lend me some knowledge on why the fastboot commands don't work that would be nice I was going to flash a gsi and try to patch a stock boot image via magisk but I can do anything without unlocking the bootloader first, I'm hoping it's not a kernel related issue
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sapphiress:
Yeah still working on it, waiting for some pie PoCs to come out. But fastboot is borked. I've requested the source code from them we'll see how that goes, doubt it will go anywhere. Can't even find the proper drivers for it. MTKTool is outdated so it can't even get a read on the FS to make a scatter file. All one click apps I tried didn't work so I wouldn't recommend those. OneClickRoot said it could root it but I'm not about to pay them to find out.

I did find a binary(locksettings) in system that allows you to set and remove passwords via command line which seems a bit insecure, but possibly exploitable, and an empty "cdrom_install.iso" in /system/etc But It just says:

"This directory contains the raw data that OEMs want to expose

to end-users.

Due to the limitation of mass storage. The cdrom ISO file should

be larger than 600KBytes.

If you put less files into this directory. Then it will create

a dummy file to fill the gap."

With a nice 616KB pad file.

That's all I've been able to get so far.

Oddly my device seems to be having some sort of bug. The touchscreen will just randomly lock up , I've reset the device , I realized it doesn't so it in safe mode , so I tried deleted apps from adb shell that did nothing , but since it works in safe mode and the device has project treble support I feel as though flashing a gsi would fix the problem , but I can't so that with a locked bootloader
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sapphiress:
You might want to go through your apps and disable a bunch of the bloat. They had like 3 facebook managers, installers and stuff in there. That could be doing it. I haven't had any such issues but i've only had the phone a few hours and have been in a shell exploring it most of that time.

Update: EDL Mode is accessible. We haven't been able to successfully do anything with it yet due to lack of a firehose, but 9008 mode does work with EDL Cable. If anyone has a SDM450 firehose around that would be ideal.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sawclan22:
I already noticed edl mode was there was planning on finding out what to do today , I have a firehouse for the board which is prog_emmc_firehose_8953_ddr.mbn , but I wasn't sure how that worked I'm not to familiar with edl mode or what it can do , also I'm not a dev just an experienced Android / Linux user

---------- Post added at 01:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 PM ----------

What would u even use to flash in edl mode? Say a gsi , because there's no stock firmware we can extract , but we can always get a rooted gsi if I'm not mistaken because the device does have project treble support
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sawclan22:
The firehouse for the oppo a71 has same specs board RAM and soc would that work
