[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
After flashing it with FKM, how would I go about getting Magisk flashed again? I haven't used FKM in quite a while.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
If youre rooted now you will be after as well
[Google Pixel 6a] tlxxxsracer:
Can we get a variant for a13 beta? :)

Look forward to trying this out
[Google Pixel 6a] Interceptor777:
Flashing with FKM results in boot loop for me, flashing stock boot.img didn't fix it. I'll just have to flash full stock firmware with wipe option disabled.

EDIT: Phone really did not like me using the flash-all.bat from firmware to flash it, refused to flash system partitions. Ended up using Android Flash Tool from Google and now the phone is back.

Thankfully the 6a is not my main phone so I can keep testing builds even if they bork the phone. Let me know if you need any logs.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
What build are your on?
[Google Pixel 6a] Interceptor777:
SD2A.220601.002
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Very weird, works fine for me
[Google Pixel 6a] Interceptor777:
Do you have magisk modules installed? I had LSPosed and some other minor stuff, maybe that was it. I'll try again on a clean flash.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
No, nothing. I literally only use it for FKM and Vanced YouTube
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
It didn't work for me either. Flashing with FKM resulted in a boot loop. I tried sideloading the Verizon OTA zip, that's the build I'm on. Then it would get mostly through the boot animation and would restart. Tried safe mode and it booted. Then a normal reboot and that did the trick. I think this phone is gonna be a finicky one. Lol
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
No, this kernel building is whats finicky....Im told disabling verity on our phones would do the trick but Im not willing to go there quite yet.

Thanks for trying it....I did upload a second one that also booted right up for me but dont feeli like you have to try it....Ive been fighting with bootloops for 2 days now so I get it.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
I'm guessing A13 will be official by the time I get this up to speed... Lol
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Ive been building Roms and kernels for over a decade and this is definitely the most challenging time Ive had. This new layout with GKI is super confusing.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Ok, I approached this differently. If someone can try test 3 to see if it boots that would be great. Worked fine for me over rooted stock.

This is more inline with how I used to build them but since we have verity on we cant just fastboot a boot.img.
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
This one flashed and booted for me with FKM on build SD2A.220601.004. What should the kernel version in settings say? I'm not really sure if that changed or not.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Its still reading as stock so but this is definitely using the Image I build vs the stock one. Just glad it booted....that at least proves this can work like this.

Thank you, more tests to follow.
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
Awesome! I'll keep an eye out for them.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
So while Im building the boot.img with my kernel Image I am almost certain the boot image isnt actually getting flashed which is why all appears to be as stock, because it is.

This is all very confusing. For whatever reason FKM is flashing it but its not actually being applied.

Back to work on it some more
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
While I didnt want to do it, I went ahead and disabled verity (had to factory reset) to see if that allows flashing modified boot.img's.

Looks like after all that, its still a no go to boot. I have no idea what the issue is but this may be a while

Edit: So not entirely true....I resynced all the source and started fresh modifying very little at a time and now I can flash the boot.img in the output folder and it boots and shows changes. Ill upload one in a bit for someone to try

Edit 2 : Build up, this is a patched bootimage so root will be retained if it flashes and boots. I would DEFINITELY just fastboot boot it though before flashing.
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
I can test it tomorrow.
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
I tried this one and it wouldn't boot for me.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Ok, so disabling verity definitely changed that for me. Ill see if putting it in a zip changes that. Flashing kernels shouldnt be this difficult.
[Google Pixel 6a] iron maiden:
hola, wow kernl para pixel 6a, fantástico, muchas gracias

Once working properly Ill accept the thanks....lol

Would that be any help to us?
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
New test up, flashable zip again, this time with just the boot.img in it. Works fine for me, but thats nothing new.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
In theory this should be included in AK3 which is what Im using as a zip. Im still not sure what causes non boot vs boot situations to be honest.
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
Test 4 booted for me but the kernel version in settings looks unchanged.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Sweet....yeah, no idea why its being hardcoded but this is a custom kernel....I was able to change the name and host names. Seems the date/time is pulling from the last git commit in the AOSP tree by default.

Can you screenshot the full kernel name from whatever kernel app youre using?
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
Here's the kernel version
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Well WTF....its definitely not flashing the bootimage. Youre using FKM or some other app?

It should look like this.....

Also, can you try unzipping that, grabbing the boot.img and then fastboot boot it?
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
I used Kernel Flasher from the Pixel 6 forums here on XDA this time. Let me try FKM and see what happens. If it still doesn't change I'll try fastbooting it.

@ctfrommn I tried using FKM. Same result. It didn't actually flash even though it said it did. I used fastboot but it wouldn't boot then. I wonder what patching the boot img with Magisk and fastbooting it would do? Lol. I might try that tomorrow just to see.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Man this is frustrating..... Thank you for your help. I'll keep looking into options.

I do know that disabling verity works but that is another factory reset which is a pain.
[Google Pixel 6a] DespairFactor:
Hey dude, send me a PM on telegram, I will help you get this working
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Awesome, but I have no Telegram account. Whats involved in connecting with you there?
[Google Pixel 6a] DespairFactor:
ah, it just uses your phone number and a username, but you can hide your phone number from others:) It's where a lot of the android development scene currently lives. A lot of projects are not posted on XDA anymore or have their support chats on Telegram. Here is my direct link: http://t.me/despairfactor
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Ok, thanks to @DespairFactor were now moving in the right direction. Test 5 is up and its a patched boot.img that anyone should be able to boot, but make sure you just fastboot boot first.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
And with even more help from @DespairFactor he uncovered a fundamental flaw in the way the code was setup which explains all the issues weve been having. I think this is fully fixed now and I can actually start doing dev stuff.

Next build should be legit (but still simple) and flashable for all, but you will need to be rooted to flash the zip.

Alpha 1 up. Flashable zip via kernel app or other flashing app.

Need to be rooted first.
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
That's better 🙂
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Thats what Im talking about.
[Google Pixel 6a] Interceptor777:
Can confirm alpha 1 works 👍
[Google Pixel 6a] jejemc:
hello we can flash it via franco manager?
[Google Pixel 6a] DespairFactor:
Yes
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Alpha 2 is up....updated to Linux 5.10.114 so far. Only 21 more versions to be up fully up to date....lol. Much much more to come, but this is a nice update.

This works on any A12 June build.
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
Just flashed it!
[Google Pixel 6a] mister november:
Android 13 compatible?
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Nope... Once 13 is official I'll deal with it. I'm not on 13 and an not maintaining 2 separate builds, sorry.
[Google Pixel 6a] HiM@L:
will this work in 6 pro?
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
I highly doubt it. The vendor_boot is different. As soon as I'm done getting this up to my standards I may build for all 3 devices, but for now just the 6a.

Add stated in the op, this is my personal kernel I choose to share here, my days of mass development for multiple devices are in the past.

And based on the general lack of interest I may not even bother keeping it here, well see.
[Google Pixel 6a] mister november:
No worries! Thanks for the reply!
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Alright, a week and 7,000 commits later this is up to date with Linux 5.10 source. New build in a bit.

Now I can start actually doing development

Beta 1 is up
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
Running strong as usual 💪🏻
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Likely one more A12 version for those not moving to A13 right now. Then Ill start A13 development but it will be a while before I have a build I would guess. Im definitely staying on A12 for now.
[Google Pixel 6a] radekmazur:
I'm on A13 so I'll stick around to see what you cook up. Thanks.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
I'm going to start working on 13 tomorrow. Hopefully I'll have a working build by early next week.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
A13 kernel source synced and clean flashing A13 (both slots) now. Once I get this all setup again Ill get back in the kitchen and start cooking up some kernel-y goodness.
[Google Pixel 6a] radekmazur:
Waiting. Haha
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Got A13 built and booting (with help from @DespairFactor again) Initial test/alpha/beta/whatever build hopefully yet today.
[Google Pixel 6a] iron maiden:
I'm installing by fastboot A13 stable I'm going to root and waiting for your kernel thank you very much
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Nothing super exciting yet, but a decently optimized stock test build uploaded.

A13 only obviously
[Google Pixel 6a] hochoch:
Flashed and booted. Working good but I got an Android system error when the phone starts. Not having any issues tho.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Yep, I think thats like a vendor mismatch message but no idea.
[Google Pixel 6a] mmead1143:
Same experience here - ran zip with FKM and it looked good - went to reboot and boot loop. Same here - boot.img didn't fix it. No biggie - android flash tool ftw.

Phone is straight from google unlocked - US verision (if there is such a thing).
[Google Pixel 6a] mmead1143:
Got things to work - I'm told if you have root you shouldn't have to do this, but I did and it worked for me. Just a small sample set though lol

Ran fastboot flash --disable-verity vbmeta vbmeta.img Got this from another thread...again shouldn't have to use it but it worked for me.

Running MVK now - woot - just in case others have this issue.

EDIT: anyone reading this just keep in mind. This is just my experience and I am no dev...just a lurker that likes to tinker. It's very well the probabilty I screwed up an fastboot command somewhere lol. Really just put this out there in case the issue is more than that.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Interesting.....I just reflashed A13 stock, patched stock boot, flashed kernel and had zero issues with booting or rebooting.
[Google Pixel 6a] JRJ442:
I didn't have any issues with the zip when I flashed it a couple hours ago either. I used Kernel Flasher that's over in the Pixel 6 forum. I think this phone is just finicky for some.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
Makes me wonder if magisk modules or some other variable is causing issues. But agree, "kernel" development is definitely different on these newer devices. I miss the days of simply flashing a boot.img. Having to package the vendor portions into a "kernel" adds so much complexity.
[Google Pixel 6a] mnrivera210:
I've had this running for close to a day on A13 with multiple reboots and it is running well. Thank you for the development.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
This is only the very beginning... It's going to take me weeks to get this up to my standards.
[Google Pixel 6a] pharpe:
If I'm understanding this correctly you have a Velocity Rom that goes with this kernel that you don't post on XDA but share with those interested? If that is the case, should we PM you if interested?
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
I did, which is where MVK was born. I havent built it for Pixels so far as its much more (or was at least) complex and time consuming vs Nexus devices. If I do bring it back (my intention currently) I will definitely post it here.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:

[Google Pixel 6a] Ace42:
Excellent kernel. First thing I put on my 6a after setting up the phone. No reboots.

[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
There is a mildly undervolted test kernel up if anyone wants to test. There are a few other changes as well.

And just FYI to all, I have this phone and flash every build I upload (unless I say otherwise) so I know they work at least. I just don't use my phone the same as other people.

Same here. I'm getting really good standby time as well as use time. The temperature is super cool for how I normally use the phone. For a first effort. This is great work.
[Google Pixel 6a] sconebranch:
Just flashed the kernel with EX Kernel Manager, rebooted, and now my 6a only boots to fastboot mode. I did backup the stock kernel with EKM, but it's in my Downloads folder on my phone. Any advice?
[Google Pixel 6a] Gytole:
Reflash stock without wipe and try again
[Google Pixel 6a] hochoch:
Flash factory image again and re-root. I also used ex to flash but had no issues. Maybe a bad download of the kernel? Or an Xposed module?
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
You need to dirty flash the factory image. Youll have to see what else was going on after.
[Google Pixel 6a] mmead1143:
I had the same thing - switched to franco kernel manager and it worked. I can't say it wasn't user error on my part with EX as it's only 1 data point. Maybe start over and try Franco instead?
[Google Pixel 6a] sconebranch:
Flashed and re-rooted. Before I try to re-flash the Kernel, yes, I had LSPosed and a few modules installed. Why?

If there's an issue with LSPosed, can I work around it by flashing the kernel first and then adding the modules? Or am I going to have the same problem again?
[Google Pixel 6a] hochoch:
Maybe turn off modules, download then flash new kernel and see if it boots? Then enable modules one by one to see what happens. I use magisk boot loop protector module too .... Use that first 😅
[Google Pixel 6a] bethedealer:
Just flash this on my pixel 6A and everything seems fine. Looking forward to new updates.
[Google Pixel 6a] sconebranch:
Update -- running MVK with no problems. I loaded the kernel before adding Magisk modules and have yet to figure out what caused the conflict.
[Google Pixel 6a] cyclet:
Does MobileIron, Safetynet, or other corporate app containers services work with this kernel?

Hello. Thank you for the Kernel. What happens if we update to the newest beta released today. What happens to the kernel and root? Are there any chances of the device not booting if we try and update?
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
You will almost certainly need to re-root. As far as whether this will work on a new beta build, no idea. I wont flash it so I cant test it.
[Google Pixel 6a] ctfrommn:
