Development [Kernel][13][Official][Bluejay] DarkKernel (April 30, 2023)

nice. installed w/o a hitch. How do we know it's your rom. You didn't leave a calling card in the About section? Also, I'm rooted. Am I going to get any benefit from this ROM vs. stock?

THanks!

This thread is now a kernel only, and is no longer a ROM. It will be an updated kernel that works on any ROM.

Was wondering if you still had plans for this kernel with those who still want to have root.

Also is their any good guide to set up environment for kernel building for the goole tensor chip?

I'll look into confidential kernel root but it will require me to implement and compile it not with magisk, but much more complex. It will take time.

This is a good guide to set up for android development: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/bluejay/build

I mean I was looking for a guide for just kernel builds , not a whole rom build just to get kernel.... But I guess I will do a Linux installation, get dependencies , sync sources , and make a build until I do figure out how to compile just kernel... As we do not have the community the 6/6pro has. We have literally just this kernel and it's quite limited on who can run it and those who do have to sacrifice root.... Been apple since the 4s and past the stage of having limitations, why I went Android and will start developing for it.

I appreciate the response and hope to see what you suggested as if that happens I'll gladly hope over to graphineos .. I know theirs a higher chance of bootloop / bricks with root on graphine os with a locked BL , but not if you use root for modifying the os like magisk does with modules.

can you please help me to build the android kenrel for bluejay device based on android 12 it is not flashing on to the device

Sorry this kernel only supports Android 13. I suggest upgrading then flashing this kernel. That will work.

 

[Magnetox]

UPDATED TO THE MARCH KERNEL BUILD. Qpr2

 

[Magnetox]

Upon flashing it and testing it on LineageOS it's about 25% faster in networking from previous kernels. New pics uploaded.

This is still unrootable right? Thanks for this

@Magnetox Please check your PM inbox. Thank you.

Yes with lockdown mode on kernel even if u root the boot.img it doesn't work because no kernel variables are viewable or modifiable. This is for security reasons.

There's still MVK around but only on telegram afaik...

 

[emhelmark2]

any requirements for this?

 

[Magnetox]

any requirements for this?

Just any Android 13 system on Pixel 6a. Preferably updated to the latest.

MVK isnt a standalone kernel for other ROM's. Its a custom made kernel to be used with Velocity ROM

Majority of boot images can be interchanged on different ROMs. There's no specificity. Oh, and ALL kernels are custom unless obviously it's stock.

Well, as this is MY kernel Im telling you whats its for. Those that want a standalone kernel for stock ROM or any other ROM can look elesewhere.
