I am having a strange bug and I think it is a problem with this kernel (it happens to me since I updated to version r112). The sound of the notifications is not heard after a few hours. Does it happen to someone else?

Does this work on the latest version, 11.0.9.9 IN21BA?

I've been using your kernel for months. Thank you very much! Keep up the good work buddy!

blu_spark_r114 release

New build is up!

This kernel is tested for the 8 Pro and 8T variants which I have, regular OP8 in OOS 11 is said to be working fine by some users.
You can use FKM download kernel feature, just import the links bellow in the app.
FKM download configs: oos


Changelog:
  • Build with Google Clang 14.0.0 + LLD linker
  • Revert some dubious patches, general cleanup
  • Set HZ to 250
  • defconfig: regenerate and sync
  • f2fs fixes
  • wireguard updates (v20211208)
  • AnyKernel3 updates (v20211207)
  • Couple init runtime adjusts to better UX
  • For root, Magisk v23.0 or newer is mandatory


Keep in mind: I will give no active support for custom ROMs (including OOS based ones).
I am mostly interested on debugging stuff in stock stable OOS (with logs and reproducible steps to replicate the issue).

Thank for the kernel! ^^

May i ask a stupid question?
So my question is why are the benefits or drawback to dropping the HZ to 250?
It is for better throughput and battery life?
You can give the complicated answer i maintain my own kernel so i'll understand ^^

Both 250 and 300 behave similar, there's not much change.
250 seems to be the best compromise between throughput and interactiveness and has since been picked up by all the new devices and mainline.
Google still ships 300 in some previous devices but on newer ones it defaults to 250 also.

hello i'm kind of new with OP8, trying out this kernel. i noticed the kernel doesn't help bypass safetynet. is there any reason it's not implemented? i'm trying to stay away from magisk because it adds up extra "maintainance" and i don't really need any root features.

    blu_spark_r237 release (A14 custom)

    New build is up (y)

    Build targeting lineage-21.0-20240217-nightly, kernel build may work with other ROMs that use similar device/kernel trees.
    This kernel is for the 8T but it's unified, so should work for the OP8/Pro also.

    For flashing and easy of install logging, Kernel Flasher is recommended

    You can use Kernel Flasher/FKM download kernel feature, just import the link bellow in the app updates/flash section.
    Download config: custom


    Changelog:
    • Merge lineage-21.0 from LineageOS/android_kernel_oneplus_sm8250
    • CodeLinaro device updates
    • slight rebase/cleanup for LOS21 merge
    • erofs updates
    • For root, Magisk 27.0 or newer is mandatory


    Keep in mind: I will give no active support for custom ROMs besides LineageOS.
    I am mostly interested on debugging stuff with logs and reproducible steps to replicate the issue.

    DOWNLOAD KERNEL ZIP
    FKM download configs: oos | custom
    (No mirrors please)​


    Setup and troubleshoot: To install just flash the zip on a stock setup with either TWRP or autoflash kernel app.
    If you come from other kernel or have any issues, you should restore your stock boot.img or dirty flash your ROM before flashing blu_spark zip to avoid problems. Also uninstall or clean data of any kernel control app you're using.
    If you are upgrading between blu_spark versions, just flash the kernel zip.

    About bugs and reports: don't bother to post if a log isn't ready or without steps so the behavior can be replicated. I only active support ROMs with NO mods whatsoever (apart from root). That includes NO support if using xposed, Magisk with added modules, etc.
    Currently only LineageOS or LOS based ROMs are supported, OOS is EOL.
    Also try not to spam the thread with OT. There's threads for all kind of stuff, use them.

    Going back to stock: This kernel installer doesn't change your filesystem. You can backup your boot.img with TWRP or kernel app before flashing blu_spark if you want to go back to full stock or just dirty flash your full ROM.
