Hello everyone, during the hiatus I unfortunately lost access to my telegram account. Solely my fault for being a bit quite careless, but I'll come back with a new account once I have decided to return to more active development. I already have my laptop, though I figured I should spend more time exploring beyond kernel development e.g. web development, managing a Linux system, python scripting, and such.

Don't worry, I'm not gonna ditch the device soon, nor am I going to stop doing kernel stuff. Just keep track of my GitHub for any activity as I'll likely be adding more projects and maybe also one day release a new version of the kernel.

Please inform the telegram group for anyone who's active in it who reads this message.

Also I'll still be merging 4.14 ALS, just wait for the GitHub push eventually. I'm planning to redo my VMWare setup prior to it however.

You have me quite curious! How did you lose access to your Telegram account?

My sim got cut and I accidentally, rather mindlessly, uninstalled telegram on my phone as I moved back to OOS (I removed my laptop's access since I sent it to the service center). So yeah, no way to access it since TG needs either code sent to sim or to an active client - both of which I no longer have. Quite stupid and careless I know 😂.

Anyways, I already have an account and maybe I'll return next week. For now, I'm trying to set a bit of a routine for coding and my lifestyle.

Hello! I am back, finally with a new number in a new location. Currently looking for a job right now (hit me up if you know any opportunities nearby my area), and while I am doing nothing, I plan on getting back to active kernel development.

I have made new TG groups (since I lost access to my old TG account) - check them out here.

I also finally have a 'buy me a coffee' page! It's not really necessary nor does it give you access to some secret stuff - it's completely optional, I still will work on the kernel regardless.

Thank you to everyone who have stuck by throughout the kernel's development! ❤️

It's already compatible with A13.
I mean I don't doubt it, the 12 release was compatible with 12.1 release even though there was whole API change involved with that. I meant more of an A13 optimized kernel release now that it's out and he says he's back so that's where my question comes from.

Finally, end of the road!​


After completely redoing the kernel for about a year, I figured the current state of it is the best it is to be left at with. This should be the optimal build that could be daily driven for years to come.

I will be moving to 4.14 development following this last build.

Thank you all for sticking out until the end! See you in 4.14! 😁

    X Kernel for Oneplus 5/T

    Initiation

    This kernel is a CAF-upstreamed unified (OP5/T) kernel based on LOS kernel. This kernel solely aims to be always upstreamed alongside patches from other kernel developers as well as my own personal patches authored by me. I intend to share my personal kernel and my own drivers and modifications to the community to help not only users of the device but also developers who are interested in finding new solutions to improve their own software. I would like to give my utmost gratitude to the well-known kernel developers in this community for their continuous support and contributions to custom Android development under Open Source License.

    Code:
    /*
    * Your warranty is not void.
    *
    * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead earphones,
    * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
    * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this Kernel
    * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
    * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
    */

    Hello everyone,

    Sorry if I have been very inactive in XDA, have been really busy that I am only able to be active in TG most of the times.

    I have now released and updated the links as well as the XDA thread regarding the new release, 'panda.' I like pandas so I have decided with that name for the new stable release. I have cleaned up everything as to make it all clearer for new users. Also, I have decided to rebase after the stable release, something that I have already said multiple times in the telegram group although it has been delayed for a long period because of issues. Gladly, I've been able to fix all of the aforementioned issues which have allowed me to release the new version today.

    Regardless, I hope the stable release finally brings clarity and gets rid of confusion to many users and also fixes the issues that may have been caused by the previous versions.

    Thanks for trusting the kernel! Enjoy everyone!

    P.S. I will still push updates to 'panda' (which is why I preserved the revision string) for upstreams and various bug fixes. I'll only be focusing more on the rebase than bringing more features to Lazy.

    P.S. (2) I'll be taking a break for a month for now from kernel development and shift my focus on college. Will be returning on April or last week of March maybe.

    So yeah, I'm sorry about being inactive for days when it comes to the forum as well as the long wait for the next version's arrival. I just recently passed my college's aptitude test (and passed yay), and now I'm back to working on it again. So far these are the changes (test builds version X):

    - Upstreamed 4.4.220
    - Updated weeb base
    - Staged dynamic stune boost based on input
    - New dynamic underclock (depends on DSBoost)
    - Scheduler tweaks
    - Memory management tweaks
    - Removed CIB and Devfreq boost
    - Removed stune assist
    - Disabled PPP support (unnecessary)
    - Removed noop
    - Set CDG and fq qdisc as default
    - Disabled more logging and debuging stuff
    - and more that I may had forgotten...

    I'm still fixing instabilities with the new integrations as I am really just a newbie or an amateur when it comes to coding. Nevertheless, I enjoy it and I do want to learn more. :))

    About the TG group, I'm still thinking about it XD

    Anyways, good day! :good:

    New X kernel is out!

    Finally after a long while, the kernel is now rebased and comes with it is a rename! The source code and stuff have been updated as well as the builds. This also supports A12 along with a lot of new stuff a lot of which were written by me. Hopefully this fixes a lot of issues lazy kernel was not able to fix, and also provide a new refreshing experience with this old device.

    For now, I will be working on other more exciting stuff with other developers to further extend the life of this device. Hopefully my phone doesn't give in to its age yet :LOL:. Regardless, enjoy the new kernel!

    Cheers! 🥂

    Revision 2 out! Lots of fixes and also additions along with the usual upstream. Will be going off for a while again, 'till then, enjoy!

    About the rebase:
    I'm still thinking about the rebase as I need to garner up patience and courage for it, still don't think I am ready specially with how tight real life schedule is currently. Sorry about that.

    EDIT: I had to do some incremental revisions to fix issues. Please move to the latest r2.2 one to have performance and audio fixes.
