Thanks for your replies, i understand your position. I guess i'll have to upgrade to a boeffla supported device.
This sounds like a real good plan, mate

Hi all,
probably one of the last maintenance updates of that kernel:
Version 6.1-beta6

probably one of the last maintenance updates of that kernel:
Version 6.1-beta6
19.03.2018
- Important: I meanwhile advice to switch ext4 tweaks and dynamic fsync to off for optimal data integrity. Use these two options on own risk.
- Change: Internal kernel busybox updated to latest version 1.28.1 (self-compiled from sources, www.busybox.net)
- Fix: Fixed a typo in bccontroller script

hi Andi can you say something about battery consumption. do we need to set the battery profile in lineage OS or in boeffla config. how do they work together? if i set battery saving in boeffla config but performance in lineage OS what will happen? which profile will be effectively in use?
It is a mix.
When you set performance in LineageOS (which I do not recommend btw, I always recommend to use boeffla-config for it), it can set a couple of settings but not all. For instance, governor, cpu frequencies and schedulers are locked by my kernel to what is configured in Boeffla-Config.
I would personally more tend to create multiple profiles in Boeffla-Config, one for normal usage and one with reduced CPU frequencies for battery saving.
However, the profiles in Lineage affect more, afaik it also changes picture frequencies etc. But I am not sure as I am not a rom guy.
In fact, you just have to understand it will be a mix of settings of Rom and Boeffla-Config, see above.
P.S. I do not use my X at all, so I do not have any personal recommendations for it. Sorry.
Andi
Thanks for supporting this device for so long. It's still my daily driver and runs like a dream with your kernel. :good:
The gamma slider is not working in previous version. The gamma slider does nothing in boeffla config.
Has it fixed? If the gamma works, I would like try to update.
Has it fixed? If the gamma works, I would like try to update.
Can confirm it is not working.
But unfortunately there will be no fix for it.
This is part of the display driver code, which I will not touch. There may even have been a reason why this got functionally removed.
I will remove the slider in a subsequent update, as it is on almost all other devices already.
Sorry, you have to live without gamma control mate.

Last kernel, the party is over
Hi all,
the day has come. Today is the day where I will drop support for the OnePlus X by providing a last, final LineageOS 14.1 kernel. The kernel is therefore officially end-of-life now.
LineageOS 14.1 has meanwhile be replaced by LineageOS 15, which I am not gonna support anymore for known reasons.
I provided my first kernel in February 2016, so I provided a solid support for the device for more than 2 years.
I will leave the thread open for a few more weeks before I finally lock it.
And... in the unlikely case, some official LineageOS 14.1 kernel changes break my last kernel version, I will provide a new stable, final version again. However, I will not merge any more commits unless something is broken, the kernel should be really the last version now and I do not expect significant kernel updates on LineageOS 14.1 anymore.
Here we go for the last OnePlus X Boeffla kernel (drum roll):
This kernel will NOT work on OOS or any other builds than LineageOS !!!
It will work only on LineageOS 14.x based roms.
This kernel is end-of-life and marks the end of my support for LineageOS on the OnePlus X.
There will be no LineageOS 15 kernel anymore. The journey is over.
Version 6.1 stable final
28.03.2018
CU again somewhere else in future, I still have newer phones in active maintenance, maybe you can get one of that models.
Enjoy

Hi @Lord Boeffla the guys developing Oreo ROM are having issues with fixing MP Decision / Hotplug in their Kernel. Can you do something to push them along? if it isn't too much trouble.
Aosip dosnt have a hotplug
AOSP is limited to 1958mhz otherwise it starts giving MPDecision errors
Maybe just use their oreo kernel and post a flashable version with hotplug fix in place?

I do not know how to help.
Mpdecision comes from the rom, not the kernel. So when hotplugging does not work, they need to check mpdecision first thing.
And nope, I will not even fork a 15.1 kernel on the OPX anymore. I really have closed everything on the devices where I dropped support. Sorry.
Andi
thanks for the quick reply.
im facing an issue. i was using AOSiP 8.1 and did a wipe sys data cache before shifting to LOS 14.1 and flashing your kernel, but the problem from AOSiP is persisting in LOS 14.1 which is stuck on 300mhz and won't go into deep sleep.
What could be the issue? do i need to format data or is there a simpler solution to this?
Probably a firmware related issue, no idea what AOSiP changes in the system.
I would go the hard way:
- flash latest official OOS (this ensures you are using correct firmwares)
- then flash LineageOS again
- and yeah, sorry, you need to do a fresh install and not restoring a previous LineageOS backup if you really want to go sure
If that does not help, something is extremely weird, would not have seen that ever before, neither reported.
Andi
Thanks to all supporting the OnePlus X over the years in this thread.
As the last kernel release in this thread is very long ago, I take the liberty and close the thread for good.
CU again, one day, somewhere...

51** Note: This kernel is end-of-life and will no more be maintained. There will be no LineageOS 15.1 or newer kernel be available anymore **
Hi all,
some of you know me from the other OnePlus (One and Two) or Samsung devices areas, where I provide my kernels already for more than two years to OnePlus One, OnePlus Two, Galaxy S5, S3 and Note 10.1 users for all sort of platforms (Samsung, Cyanogenmod, Omnirom etc.)
Now I own a OnePlus X device and decided to port my kernels also to this device.
Please note:
I am not heading to have as many features as possible implemented, this is not my design goal. If you are more into that, move on to other kernels. If you are searching for a good mix of improvements and new functions while not sacrificing stability, you are welcome here (see below the history section for more info).
Compatibility
Important: This kernel is only meant to be compatible with official Cyanogenmod and nothing else.
So when the kernel does not run on custom rom XYZ, do not even bother me with it or ask hundred times in the thread for compatibility.
I could not care less about it !!
Important notes
When using new anykernel concept Boeffla-Kernel: Flash stock kernel of rom first !
Make sure you flash the correct kernel version, depending on whether you really use CM or a different OS !!!
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.
Support
First read the FAQ section on the Homepage !!!
Click here to learn about all possible kernel settings in the config app (quite outdated, as it is focused on S3 still).
Click here to learn about using the config app (quite outdated, as it is focused on S3 still).
I will refuse to give support if you do any undervolting and experience freezes or hot reboots.
I will also not provide any support if you do not use Boeffla-Config app to tweak the kernel, other 3rd party tweaking apps are known (and intended) to cause issues.
I will refuse to give support if you have xposed framework installed and reporting any kind of weird issues. My opinion to xposed it quite clear: too powerful for >90% of the users that just mess up their system with it.
Otherwise, you can get in touch with me via the support e-mail address: [email protected]
Please provide kernel version, rom version, a detailed issue description and ideally supporting screenshots or log files.

History and design targets
Basically I created my first Boeffla-Kernel in 2012 as there was no kernel for the Samsung Galaxy S3 around that had exactly the mix of functionalities that I wanted. I wanted to have full flexibility in undervolting and charge rates for instance, but did not like the sharpness and/or brightness tweaks many kernels have implemented as per default.
Hence, I began to create my own kernel after a while, adding all the features I like. This is the result of my work, which in the end I decided to share with you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. Also it does not aim to have the broadest feature set available everywhere.
It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
These design targets are also valid for the OnePlus kernel here!!!
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
- things I do personally not need
- things I do not like
- things that are in any way dangerous
- anything which is highly experimental
- f2fs - it is known to cause various issues and compatibility problems
- custom hotplugging algorithms
- a CAF based kernel
- anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
And: I do not really care about benchmark numbers, they say almost nothing as long as something is not completely wrong. Important for me is the feel-good factor.
I am also not interested in gaming at all, so never expect a gamer kernel. It will just not happen...
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: Flash the correct kernel depending on whether you are using CM or another rom !!!
Configuration of the kernel
To tweak and configure the kernel, manually load and install the app "Boeffla-Config V2" from the downloads section on www.boeffla.de.
You need at least version 2.2.42 or higher for the OnePlus X Boeffla Kernels.
Donation
If you like my work, feel free to donate: Donation-Link
If you donate at least 2,49 EUR (to be in line with the donation app prices on Google Play store), you will receive a personal donation code which unlocks some nice little comfort functions in Boeffla-Config V2 on top.
Source code
All sources can be found in my Github repository: http://github.com/andip71
Credits to developers
Of course, I had never been able to create all that by my own. So I want to give credits to the really good developers around, that have given me all the inspiration and from which I cherry picked lots of the implemented functionalities:
* ZaneZam
* Grarak
* Yank555
* Hardcore
* Chainfire
* AndreiLux
* Netarchy
* Gokhanmoral
* Simone201
* Mialwe
* Entropy512
* Faux
* Harunjo
* FranciscoFranco
* Ak
... I just hope I did not forget someone. If so, please let me know and I will add you of course.
Thanks to all of you for your great work !!!
Disclaimer
*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in your custom recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.
Cheers and enjoy

Andi18Hi guys.
Time to say goodbye now for 3 weeks.
I am shortly departing to sunny Florida for my annual holidays.
This means:
I will read the forum but most likely not answer or only answer delayed.
There will be absolutely no kernel updates until I return
If things break in the meantime, they break - no way out
Have a goooood time!
Andi
