@UsPdSr, Nali is ready for testing soon. Zest will be redone for all devices in the coming weeks with a refresh, and a ROM just got released 
.
My exams are over for this college year so I got about 3 weeks to chuck all this stuff out.

I hope you owned them'.
The news about Nali sound great and I look quite forward to Zest's update & am definitely not alone.

Hey bro, I wanna test your kernel, but the page isn't available. I like the HID and monitor mode features with long lasting battery so this kernel looks pretty good.

Hm, I assume that it's maybe correlated to the restructure of Nali and his plans to revise his kernel, as well.
If you want, could I upload the kernel(including) his last one; but as he and myself wrote before, are they limited in regard to the pen-testing ability, for example; the addition of other chipsets).
If that is something, which isn't important then let me know.
I have the last 4-6 kernel somewhere on some of my Usb-sticks, as far as I recall.
Send me a post, if you would like, that they're being uploaded.

Below you'll find the latest
PS
I don't know, why LazerL0rd's server down is; perhaps it's due to his work on his new kernel..

Is this for Oreo or Pie? Could you upload the Oreo one as well, please?
It is compatible with Oreo.
I solely used Oreo-based roms for bullhead, so I can't tell you if it's for Pie rom's, as well.
I have to disappoint you, guyz..I sold the 5x a week ago and unfortunately deleted all the downloaded kernel from LazerL0rd yesterday.
Bad timing.
The device was completely fine, but I used it exclusively in my job, for it's Kali Nethunter capabilities.
I would strongly advise against flashing Pie roms anyhow;especially the entire fleet of unknown custom roms, which is lately to find here.
(Do yourself a favour and keep a proper distance.)
They are experimental, therefore unstable and not at all intended for this device.
I own a Nexus 6p, as well as the Nexus 5 (hammerhead) and would give you the same advice for those devices.
Be happy if you're not affected by BLOD (so far).
It is solely from a technical point of view, unadvisable to install this kind of software.
-----------
So, to answer your question.
You can flash this great kernel definitely with stock and custom Oreo roms..
All the best to you, guyz.
Thank you @LazerL0rd, mate.
You have to join us on gitlab (I know you are there anyway, but rather as user and fellow dev)
- the Nethunter user are very looking forward for a awakening of Nali. The actual release has some problems with Pie and many user have problems with aatari's module for some reason.
I hope you haven't abandoned this project and/or have currently troubles and are well and healthy.
All the best to you and the entire bullhe4der's!
:highfive:

Hey, man!
I didn't read anything since June or July from your big brain or sth. eloquent.
Even though we aren't that close, I hope you are well.
If you are coming across this strange place, you have to click a couple of times until you arrive at a much stranger place aka [email protected]
There are a couple of user and developer who are very interested in your nifty Module.
Since I tried the unofficial Kali module I wouldn't dare to even touch another of this horrible things again.*
> sudo rm - rf o/
Enough, geeked.
I hope that you are well and healthy and look very much forward to hearing from you soon!
*I wanted to revoke this in respect of the developer. That sounded less harsh at the time I wrote this (yea, I know..hard to believe, but true).

Greetings!
LazerL0rd's kernel, named Zest_, qualifies in theory as a kernel for Offensive's "Kali Nethunter" project., which means, that the features are the same as the one's you can find in Kali Nethunter's kernel repo.
I would recommend that you install the firmware module in addition, specifically for Nethunter, which can be found in Magisk download section.
Here the link to the kernel, which I thank God, did upload onto Xda's server >

The kernel is compatible with any Oreo based custom rom for the 5x.
Therefore should LineageOS working.
You can forego the installation of the addonsu, as Magisk is completely sufficient.
Last I heard the support of same will be dropped by the LineageOS-team any time soon.
The development for this kernel seems unfortunately be on hold.
I am not that much of a fan of LineageOS, in particular in regard to the restrictions of Nethunter's installation.This is a question of taste, but maybe you'll find a other Lineage-based rom, which you might like.
I hope I could help.
Best regards
Hello ... very interesting to talk to you I would like to take advantage ... on the net I found LK_kernel.zip and it seems to be very similar if not the same as Zesty but they are not the same it seems to have fewer implementations ... what can you tell me about it ... ?!? Have you talked about restrictions in LineageOS with Nethunter could you give me some more info about it ...?!? Thank you for taking the time! Thanks again!The kernel is compatible with any Oreo based custom rom for the 5x.

You can use every rom including Pie - with Lineage based roms or stock.
In this regard have you a big selection, although I don't recommned anythinger higher than Oreo, in regard to BLOD and similar deficits.
I would suggest you try the kernel by LazerL0rd and the official one by Offensive for Oreo as well.
If you have any issues to get the installer ready, send me a quote and I can gladly build one and and upload it.
Best regards

WRONG.
Here is the official stance from GPL.
There is NO requirement for source being uploaded before or after public release. The core requirement is that the person must make his changes open source if/when requested
OEMs are worst GPL offenders. And honestly Stallman doesn't consider Android Libre. A bulk on Android is licensed under Apache 2.0. Just the kernel is under GPL v2.
An interesting titbit. iOS kernel is open source. Just that you can't install it on any device.
Moderators don't go on shutting down threads just because kernel developers are a bit late. We do ensure a source and binary parity and we do provide ample time to fix the sources. However repeat offenders do get their threads closed.
Also FSF is more interested in making things open source rather than shutting things down. Shutting down things for slightest infractions is restrictive philosophy. Not really inline with what FSF does.
Your post did amuse me. Just don't make it a habit.8New update! 50% better performance, 60% better thermal response, camera changes to 16MP (full sensor support), and experimental reviving of bootloop devices (I use a method which heats the chip very high on boot to stick the big core back on)!
