All, this kernel is meant for, and developed for, the OnePlus 8 Pro.

I have no idea if this works on standard 8, or the upcoming 8T. I only have the 8 Pro, and since I cannot test any other device, I will not support and other device.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TheExoduser:
Where do you see the version for oos11? I am looking at the github page and am using the latest release available (v20201001) however that version does not work.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Samuel Holland:
Back a couple pages post #634 is what I was using.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
New kernel for you guys on OOS11!

Changelog (this is a big one!):

- Built in both the WLAN as well as RMNET drivers in the kernel

- Upstreamed the whole kernel to CAF's LA.UM.9.12.r1-08300-SMxx50.0 - this is the first stable release for Android 11 for this chipset

Please let me know how it goes!

Latest version working awesome on oos11 ?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Gordietm:
I'm going to agree with everyone, that the kernel is running really well on OOS 11. Thank you!
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Samuel Holland:
Make sure to get the latest version he just released for oos11; it's like one page back w/ the link here on xda post #676.

The latest kernel release should work on OOS 11 stable. I'll try it once I've updated.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
Latest Android 11 kernel is working on Stable OOS 11.0.0. I'm currently running it.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] The_Anomalist:
Anyone?

Does anyone know by chance if fortnite 90fps option is available in stable oos 11? I'm currently running omega on android 10 and I tried with the betas and the option was gone. But I don't want to wipe the device yet again. Can anyone just install the game and check please? Also the kernel runs very smooth and has definitely got the best battery life that I've tested thus far.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
New kernel compiled for OOS 11.0.0 (first stable release)

Changelog vs stock kernel:

- Compiled with latest Google Clang 11.0.5

- All the tweaks pulled in from Omega OOS10 kernel

- Added in KCAL color control

- Upstreamed the entire kernel to CAF release LA.UM.9.12.r1-08300-SMxx50.0

- Included both WLAN and RMNET drivers with CAF release LA.UM.9.12.r1-08300-SMxx50.0

Please note if you already have the latest OOS11 kernel from yesterday you do not need to flash this.

Enjoy!

does this work with op8 ?

can someone provide a link to a guide on how to flash a kernel on OOS11 ?

Can this be flash through the local storage through system update on the OnePlus device
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Reddit3321:
No, however you can flash this kernel through exkm or FK km.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] THOURANI:
Can I do it the way you suggested but without root
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Reddit3321:
Nope, you need root for those apps.

stock kernel

what to do if we want stock kernel back? im on OOS 11 (India) with root but NO TWRP , dont have magisk patched boot image file either , any way to get stock kernel back?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AhmadX9:
You have to flash the stock boot img, it's basically the same process.

"Fastboot flash boot *filename.img*"

Unfortunately, I don't have the boot img for your region but I'm pretty sure you'll find it around.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] gerega:
Very good!! I hate these proprietary channels!

Btw xda is proprietary channel also..sounds like jealous comment on your part but never mind ;)

Edit. Sorry ot. Omega is by far best kernel for op8p
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] gerega:
All you need is a Webbrowser for xda which every OS in the world has preinstalled. I cant rremember that they ship with telegram too. You see the difference?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] pyry666:
Well yeah! If you wanna straight support contact oneplus directly..

Edit. Lets stop spamming this thread
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
New kernel released HERE

Changelog:

- Reverted the CAF upstream - Oneplus does extensive testing on the CAF base they are using and it also resulted in significantly higher active as well as idle drain upon further testing

- Using stock (userspace) WLAN and RMNET drivers

- Pulled in two commits from Google's 4.19.y kernel tree for increased smoothness (scheduling, write delay)

- Fixed a additional code error found through Clang

Enjoy!

Please note that moving forward I will only post OOS11 kernels, so don't try to flash this on OOS10.

[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] sting5566:
A quick search and you would have found the answer, the answer is NO.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Reddit3321:
Oct 19th update of Omega is running very nice so far. A definite improvement over stock. Just want to say thanks to the dev for all the hard work and report a minor bug I’ve noticed.

When using the wireless warp charger, the device shows no indication of warp charge. The device appears to charge at the correct wireless warp speeds, however it is not indicated in the UI (lockscreen pop up animation and battery icon). The regular charging icon appears as if you were using a non warp compatible charger.

Thanks again dev for providing a very efficient and stable kernel.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
Thanks for reporting - I can't test this since I don't have that accessory. However, please note I haven't touched that part of the kernel. Does it not do the same thing on stock? From the sound of it, Oneplus needs to fix it.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] sukhi376:
Im using OnePlus 8 pro OOS 11 , right after when I flashed latest Omega kernel using EXKM , I saw fingerprint reader not working on ambient display (not AOD), Pls look into that . Ty
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Reddit3321:
On stock it indicates “wireless warp charging” on the lock screen, shows the warp charge animation, and also shows the warp charge icon in the status bar.

Maybe it’s something OnePlus hasn’t pushed to source yet as the stable build appears newer then the kernel source on Git. Not a big deal, just wanted to report, it seems it’s only visual anyway.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TENlll423:
I'm not seeing this issue myself..

Try flashing kernel again and make sure and do a restart.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Reddit3321:
I do not have this issue either. If switching from another custom kernel ensure you are flashing rom as well so you do not run into issues.

Always amazing, I flashed previous version with FKM and I didn´t know FKM can´t flash on Android 11 so I had stock kernel, and I saw too much drain battery.

Then I flashed the last version with EXkernel manager and this is another story, very good kernel. :good::good:

Just to report latest version in OB2 for oneplus 8 pro got stuttering during changing apps in recent... Stock and radioactive no issue.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] efex:
OB2 is probably outdated. Kernel source is, if I'm not mistaken, even newer than the currently released stable (stable release is 11.0.0, kernel source is 11.0.1.1.

There are bound to be issues when mixing OS and kernel versions.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
Correct. For OB2, everyone should use the kernel from October 19.

Please note that the current OpenBeta build (OB2) is very outdated, and it stuly not stable. I would advise everyone to upgrade to the Stable OOS 11.0.0 release.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] zyonee:
Problem is, upgrading from OB2 to stable 11 would wipe all data. Or so I was told, anyway.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] efex:
It will wipe, so be sure to backup what you need. The upgrade is worth it though.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
I fully agree. Not only is it stable, but all future custom kernels will be made for stable releases, so anybody on OpenBeta was "lucky" that previous kernels were still working.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Jagdish84:
I think theres a thread on guides forum where somronr repackaged the android 11 update so it wont wipe your data...

[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] gaww:
I was getting ready to use it (am on Beta2) when it said it was going to factory reset ?? I thought it would not wipe data much factory reset ??
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] zyonee:
I think the update files in that thread are only the official ones. Maybe you were thinking about some other thread?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] gaww:
Yeah - the one here was going to factory reset mine beta.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Jagdish84:
Factory reset means wiping system and user data, it wont erase your internal drive like when upgrading using official zip from oneplus...

Thats what i though you ment
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] gaww:
I thought the opposite- that official update only wiped the user and system data.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AhmadX9:

[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TheKnux:

[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AhmadX9:
I was using stable 11 and now using OB3, never faced stuttering, I tried Franken and Omega kernels only
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TheKnux:
I noticed the horrible typo in the changelog for OB3. Oops lol. Hmm, I'm pretty sure Horizon works with open betas as well so if you have some time to try it, report back and let me know.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] AhmadX9:
Haha yeah I noticed it too ?

Well, I never tried Horizon but I'll try it tomorrow and report back after 3 days when it settles
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] gaww:
I listed to you and got burned. Factory reset wiped my phone totally.

I factory reset because I could not updated stable 11 on top of beta 3, which was bootlooping. If I had known, I would have waited for update to stable. So I reset because I thought the other internal stuff would be ok.

I had years with other phones, and for clean update, I would only wipe data and system. Internal SD was ok. Only factory reset when I sold a phone.

It's a good thing I had moved backup and other things to a USB SD or I would have really been screwed.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Jagdish84:
Well im sorry your phone got wiped, i moved from ob2 to stable and my phone got wiped including internal storage, i read throuly about the process and preformed a backup beforehand.

The op on the thread I linked you to clearly states:

'These are recovery-flashable zips of the full ROM that won't overwrite your data partition unless mentionned otherwise. They can be flashed via local update in Settings --> System --> System Updates or TWRP recovery (if it becomes available one day for devices shipping with A10 out of the box).'

I have the android 11 zip on my SD card and flashed it multiple times without it wiping my internal storage.

I'm happy you didn't lose anything, it was not my intention to screw you over.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] gaww:
There was a stable 11 available that was only supposed to wipe data and not the whole device, but I lost that option after the beta 3 update. I made the mistake of flashing an Ice that worked in beta 2. I reflashed beta 3, but lost root and couldn't get it back.

Then I did a factory reset to get rid of the $@#&746+'-75 Ice mod that I spent a whole day trying to get around.

Which CPU governors and I/O schedulers have you added to the kernel? [MENTION=1795993]kristofpetho[/MENTION]
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
New release!

This is a big one in terms of stability and experience.

Changelog:

- Removed a major debug from the kernel that is also missing on stock kernel (sources were not updated by Oneplus...)

- Reverted to using O2 optimization level from O3, for stability reasons

- Reverted modified CPUsets, the overall experience is much smoother this way, with no discernible effect on battery life

[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
Since we are still utilizing OnePlus's swap partition, it needs to settle for at least 5-6 hours after flashing.

Also, after a clean ROM flash it takes 2-3 days to fully settle.

Thanks [MENTION=2597232]zoman7663[/MENTION], yes, I am all unlocked/rooted/magisk'ed.

I have changed the kernel on previous devices, but wanted this time to understand a bit more. I don't get yet in details how a thing like exkm or fkm do what they do, neither do I get anykernel3. Since I wanted to try and use the omega kernel, I thought it could be relevant and wanted to "do it myself". I find it a bit hard to piece all the information and steps together, and the risks of bricking the phone adds to the thrill ;)
[OnePlus 8 Pro  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kristofpetho:
Hey, the easiest way to do it:

1. Find a magisk_patched boot image file

2. Flash it with

fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img

3. Start the device

4. Make sure you have root

5. Via FKM or EXKM simply flash the latest Omega kernel
