Great kernel !

It took about 3-4 days to settle and now battery is amazing. Also very smooth.

Thank you !

[MENTION=1795993]kristofpetho[/MENTION] is the new 10.5.11 (europe) good to go with this kernel?

Rocking this Kernel with version 10.5.11.IN11BA of the OS and the xXx tweaks module. Battery life is fantastic, and that's with the device still having to settle after its first day of use.

Thanks a lot for the work you've put into this.

Running latest on 10.5.12, and everything appears to be fine if anyone was wondering.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
Kernel updated in post 2.

Changelog:

- Updated with kernel source drop for 10.5.12AA / 10.5.11BA

- Updated Wireguard to latest

- Improvements to idle battery drain

- Compiled with final stable Clang 10.0.1

Note: you need to be on latest ROM! 10.5.12/10.5.11BA

Enjoy!

Downloaded and flashed last build via TWRP, my phone doesn't boot anymore. Could you re-upload previous build so i can power on my phone, please?

Just flashed on .011 EU (same as .012 US) through FKM, and it's working perfectly.

Haven't had enough time to test the battery, but hopefully it will prolong the batterylife some.

During my holiday I could only squeeze around 18h without charging, but it was used heavily with bluetooth music and google maps while driving.

Keep it up!

Running this on 10.5.11.IN11BA - I don't have any fancy detailed comparison data handy, but I can confirm the recent kernel update has effectively halved my overnight idle drain.

[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Surfeur-des-Reves:
It's a known bug from FKM, whatever kernel you use, whatever option you select, it will show RENO. Developer knows about this and it should be fixed in a future update.

[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] vibrantliker:
Are there settings somewhere to adjust to get 8.5 hours standby time?

I've never gotten that on any phone.

For example, right now battery at 59% and screen on time is 1 hr 8 min :(
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] gaww:
If just standby time only, you might get 8.5. But it's what you are running that determines how long it actually does.

Well these are results that can be expected from the last build... Although my phone is debloated a good bit... I do not have Wi-Fi Bluetooth scanning on...

Screen timeout is set at 1 minute.

I do keep my brightness up pretty high its always around 80%..... I'll also Show a screenshot of how many apps that are running in the background... I highly recommend the app SD maid pro....

18 % battery left... 29 hours since last full charge screen on time 9 and 1/2 hours I will try to upload the pictures later like I said... SD maid it usually shows that I have around 40 to 43 items running at all times. Which isn't very many at all.... 29% of the usage came from brave browser 10% from Spotify those are the apps that did most of the draining... Again sorry that the screenshots won't upload..

But don't ever use it to flash TWRP installer. It worked ok once, but after latest update, it blew up and I lost alot because &#&++ OnePlus doesn't have External SD.

Use Magisk.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] firozpatel:
Oh I never do that lol, only kernel on exkm the rest magisk
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
All, to set things straight: you only need to install Magisk once. That's it. After that, just use EXKM or FKM to flash Omega, and the kernel is automatically patched for magisk during the install process.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] gaww:
I do the same - was surprised when TWRP blew up.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TENlll423:
I've used the test twrp to install Omega with no problems, but as the OP says it's simple just to use EKM flasher.. iI's easy and consistent. There good things happening with Omega. Just kick back and enjoy this awesome device that gets even better with Omega builds.. God bless you all.

I've been looking for the patched magisk file for latest OOS version (10.5.12) and still haven't found, can I root the device with previous patched versions like 10.5.6?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] golf60:
You can try to boot a older patched version without flashing it and then install magisk to both slots.

How can I boot an older version without flashing it?

I don't understand what you mean with slots, sorry ;(
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] golf60:
In fastboot you can also boot an boot image. And then install magisk manager and install magisk in both slots, the active and inactive one and only restart your phone and all should be rooted.

[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] golf60:
When you flash magisk out of the magisk manager, the Oneplus 8 pro has two slots. There is written install directly and also install into the inactive slot. You need to flash both before reboot.

You will see when you install it.

Hi all,

Great work on the omega kernel!

I am using stock magisk rooted EU IN12.BA firmware with stock kernel and I have been bothered by the overheat warning notification when playing games, I got warning even under aircon room.

When I am driving I always receive heat warning after maybe 15~20 mins and it will automatically turn off mobile hotspot, car navigation gets disconnected, it is really annoying.

Question: If I flash omega kernel, does it fix overheat warning?

Thanks for reading
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] efex:
Try it, it's kind of individual. I got some overheats with stock, but have been using omega since the first release and haven't gotten a single overheat warning on it, ever. Just backup your boot.img in case you want to go back (I'll bet you won't)

I must say that this kernel is ridiculously good -- I am very surprised as to how much more battery life I have in comparison to the stock kernel. Is there any good reason why the OnePlus doesn't implement this kind of kernel themselves?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] franco985:
Maybe because it's time of OnePlus Nord and 8T....if you read on forums, last oos .13 is battery unfriendly and phone becomes very hot in a simple contest too. Remember: never settle some years ago, now OnePlus is just becoming like Apple and Samsung...
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
Every stock kernel (on any device) includes a ton of logging and debugging for troubleshooting. Some of those are worth it, most are not. I just removed all of them. The downside is that if there are any issues, people will send a dmesg to OnePlus and it will be unusable. So there are pros and cons.

I don't agree with this. Currently, their main focus is the 8-line, including the 8T. Kernel and userspace will be almost identical. I would much rather say that they are focusing more on Android 11, and they are tweaking that. I'm hearing reports that even DP3 is just incredible.

Re becoming Apple and Samsung - OnePlus has grown up. There is simply no way to never settle, and I think OnePlus has settled in a very good spot with the 8 Pro.
