[CAF Kernel] [10] Kang kernel For XZ2/C/P [OverClock] [52.1.A.3.49]

[Sjll]

Kang kernel
By Sjll
Notice: Beware of bricking device!
This a new kernel for stock 10. It's aim to optimize the kernel and provide better user experience.
I had cherry-picked some commits from other SDM845 devices like M i8 and Oneplus 6T. So it's a fusion kernel, though I don't know whether these commits could improve our performance.
I share the source codes, so you could tweak the kernel by yourself. Ok, don't forget to share your work with us.​

Download: Github
Note:
1. For XZ2, boot.img already included Magisk.
2 Internal problem is normal, ignore it.

CAF Version: LA.UM.8.3.r1-07600-sdm845.0.
Linux Version:4.9.206-r25-rel

Recommand to use EX kernel Manager

Feature:
1. GPU OC to 835 Mhz.
2. Thanks: Hide unlocked state from @j4nn
3. Qcacld wlan driver.
4. Remove useless drivers.
5. zram to lz4.
6. Increase priority of RT thread.
7. AVB flag removed.
8. WireGuard support.
9. Disabled some logs in kernel.
10. Newer CAF buff and Linux version.
11. Cpufreq and drm drivers optimization.
12. Schedutil optimization.
13. Energy model improved.
14. New I/O governor (Maple & Zen)
15. Blu_schedutil CPU governor( More Powersave ) Need to enable manually
16. IOsched optimization.
17. DTS eagle driver.
18. KLAPSE Color manager. Need EX kernel Manager
19. boeffla_wl_blocker supported.
20. adrenoboost supported, disable it by default.
21. etc..

How to flash:

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Vbmeta.img see Attach Files
If there is a dtbo.img, then:

fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img

I provide a new thermal configuration, see Attach Files, download it and replacing the same file in vendor/etc. You will get the full performance of SDM845.

Is it possible to port it on aosp10/los17 with osmosis anykernel?

 

[nikkdib]

thanks! can I flash on xz2 compact h8314?

It's the stock kernel
Completely incompatible with the SODP project

 

[farukr1]

Thank you for this! I got a slight increase in Antutu benchmark score, especially in GPU and UX tests. Hide unlock status is also working, Sony started to send me updates for system apps. Been using for an hour and it's smooth af. will update this comment if I encounter any issues or other improvements in longer term.

No, this kernel is only for stock, not SODP.

No, you can't, but I will provide a version for xz2c after source code is updated to latest.
You could upload the boot.img of xz2c. I need it. Because I don't want to download the whole FTF firmware of XZ2c. It's too large.

Yay

Nice, I wanted to look into TWRP at weekend
You could try to set
ro.debuggable=1
ro.adb.secure=0
Or build an -eng TWRP.

Yes, you can. It should work fine with Magisk.

 

[nikkdib]

Yes, you can. It should work fine with Magisk.

Done, try V1.5 please.

 

[farukr1]

Does the kernel already include magisk?

Edit: V1.7 crashed device after boot, gives the warning there's an internal problem with your device then reboots.

After first crash files in /sys/fs/pstore giving you the crash reason

yes but it crashes when it says phone is starting... so I can't really get into my files and have to leave for university in 10 minutes, I'll give it another try in the evening and provide logs if possible

After crash go into Fastboot mode and flash the working kernel back (with magisk)
Then the device boots and you get the files
Just don't boot one time too much or the pstore will be wiped.

For XZ2, it already included Magisk. Internal problem is normal, just ignore it. All works fine for me.
Provide your phone type please.
