[KERNEL][MiA1] FrancoKernel ⚡️- r13 - 15th November - Stock, custom roms

[Midomad]

It's the ROM you are using.

 

[Rakibboss]

It's the ROM you are using.

Working for me too

 

[coremania]

It's the ROM you are using.

If it's like that, I always thought the kernel has to support it to make it work, my bad sry.

 

[SwastikAcharya]

But is a half solution...Other kernels boot just fine alongside magisk.

Actually, that wasn't any solution, I just posted the reason.

But finally got the solution.
It's our fault that we didn't follow the steps correctly.
First flash magisk, then the kernel.
So, the procedure should be: Flash ROM, twrp, reboot recovery, Flash gapps, magisk, kernel, reboot.
Install magisk app afterwards.

I am in 8.0.0 but it tells me that there is a kernel update, update or as the post says, is it only for 8.1?

Update.

Thank you Sir @franciscofranco for the Great Contribution on Mi A1 :good: Since I'm a big fan of ur Servicely & Naptime

After I purchased and installed Fk app i got shocked no support for my phone ; then boot into twrp temporary method to just flash the zip without any slot changes and rebooted normally and without any problem it was booted fine and not installed magisk because it was already installed, then open the fk app and voila !! got updated and flashed new version with FK updater and reboot ..without any problem my device performing well ..:highfive: Attached some SS.

**I faced a minor problem .In per-app profile I changed Substatum & Andromeda to powersaver mode and Its not opening but leave that in default state it works automatically.. and Honestly Sound gain and Headphone gain control section I leave it to 0 because I'm using Fiio Ex 2nd gen HP with boom sound :laugh: stock HP sound is enough .

I'm Using Stock Android+magisk without twrp and don't know why some people facing slot a/b problems . My phone is already rooted with magisk so just flash the zip without slot changes using temporary twrp in bootloader thats how it works perfectly.

I can't reproduce your issue with per app profiles. You enabled the accessibility service?

@franciscofranco - small update - system health stats are working fine when I set SE Linux to permissive. As soon as I set it back to enforcing, stats won't show. I tried Kernel adiutor and it shows realtime CPU stats with enforcing SE Linux without issues, so there doesn't seem to be a problem with my phone setup. Could you please have a look on it?

Yes Sir accessibility service is eneble

 

[Iesedobleac]

I will tell how I installed it and my experience:

First of all, I wanted to install my stock rom, so I installed it from 0. Once installed, with the Aridane application, I installed Magisk next to the My A1 Fixes module. Then I installed the Google Camera and then the Kernel app. From the application I installed the kernel and everything without problems. What happens then I have installed in Magisk the SE Linux Permissive plugin and on rebooting had been in the logo of Android One, I had to turn off and on and has gone from there Can it be for any reason in particular? Then it worked normally.

Does this kernel support dt2w ?
I'm using r2 in RR but i can't find this option in the manager app

There is an option in RR itself to do that! why do you need one in the manager?

It requires kernel support so that you can enable it in RR settings

FOR ANYONE HAVING ISSUES INSTALLING THE KERNEL
Almost half of this thread is filled with guys who complain about bootloops and not being able to install it and I'll just give you a COMPLETE guide on how to install the kernel without any issues (Also including how to install twrp and get root)

Make sure to get the 2 files necessary for twrp here : https://xdaforums.com/mi-a1/development/recovery-twrp-3-1-1-0-touch-recovery-t3688472

The files are :
recovery-3.2.1-1.img
twrp-3.2.1-1-installer.zip (Copy this into your phone before you begin)

1- If you are on stock rom, Dirty flash using MiFlash (The option is called save user data)
2- After your phone starts, make sure you enable oem unlocking from developer settings
3- Put your phone into fastboot mode by holding power+Volume down
4- Go to ADB folder on your pc and right click while holding shift button and click on "open powershell window here"
5- Type "Fastboot oem unlock" to unlock your bootloader
6- Reboot once more into fastboot mode (Type "Fastboot reboot bootloader")
7- Type "fastboot boot recovery-3.2.1-2-oreo.img" to boot into recovery mode (It boots into twrp automatically)
8- Once you are in twrp, click on reboot and change to the opposite slot (If you are in slot A, then change to B and vice versa)
9- Flash "Twrp-recoveryInstaller-3.2.1-2-oreo"
10- Flash Magisk Zip
11- Flash FrancoKernel

And that's pretty much it

@franciscofranco

Two questions mister Franco :

1. What benefits we have in enabling zRAM? I see it is enabled by default (~500MB). We have in our device 4 gigs so i don't think that we have too much benefit from having zRAM.

2. I would like to know about touch boost. Yes i know it should decrease lag in swiping and using device but, do we need that? i think it is about 1000Mhz, but should be better if we disable it? Disabling it wouldn't ramp on 1000 MHz maybe to stay in lower value (min frequency 652).

Anyway installed on AEX and a little stutter is there (this is why i asked you 'bout touch boost). Before i was on stock kernel from AEX (the one that comes with ROM) and there wasn't any stutter.

It was clean install.

P. S.

i know that this is first release, so i hope it will get better and better after couple of more releases.

It requires kernel support so that you can enable it in RR settings

the kernel supports it, I am currently using it. It works flawlessly

Are you using fk r2 in rr ?? Or the stock kernel coming with the rom ?

What would happen if a "flash all" is done instead of a dirty installation?

Awkward, because with stock ROM the procedure is install Franco kernel and then magisk...
The kernel must be patched by magisk.

Thanks Franco. ?

 

[lelozerien]

Thank you, it seems it works great for the moment with last lineage 15.1 version.
I formated cache/dalvick and system then flashed my favorite custom rom, twrp then rebooted to recovery and flashed gapps nano, magisk and finished by flashing this kernel.
Time to test the good work now! Thank you again!

:good::good::good::good::good::good::good::good: :silly:

 

[Antonito19_]

r2 can be installed in stock roms too?

 

[albsat]

Last time I used a kernel from Franco was on a gnex.

I installed magisk and then the kernel on Los rom. Don't do the viceversa order otherwise you will not boot and you would need to reinstall twrp from fastboot!

Let's see how it goes!
