I flashed Omega a couple hours ago on xXx to see if I had any issues with recents button. Everything is running well on my end. It sounds like you have something selected in the xXx profile. Do you have this problem on stock kernel with xXx? Have you tried just running the Omega kernel with out xXx?

It was working fine with xxx room and omega, I think it all started happening after the recent os update, I can't really say, I am trying to upload the config profile, but can't seem to upload it, any ideas why that could be, I've always from day one had omega kernel on my device, and I can tell you everything was smooth with both, must be in the latest update of oxygen

Also I will ask in the XXX telegram channel and see if the Dev has a solution

You will be able to post up your profile on TG for sure. I'll keep an eye open for it and compare to my profile. As I said I've not had an issue with Omega ,xXx and the latest OS update. But I will watch for your questions on TG

I'm also using latest versions of xXx and Omega Kernel. As mentioned before I don't have any issues with my settings.
DisableZRAM = 1
LMK_RAM_Management = 1
RebuildDalvikCache = 0

Ugh. OK - so for the other problem, the network interface, I'm already testing a new build that seems to fix that specific issue for another user.
It's actually 2 specific CAF bugfixes that weren't in the Oneplus kernel..

If the test is all good, new kernel incoming tomorrow with the fix.
Who knows, must of been this one time for sound, I'm looking forward to the new build

P.s. the recent tab issue I had yesterday, and with the right config, seems to be working just fine right now, so thank you for your time and effort in helping out

- 1 F2FS fix
- 1 memory allocation fix
- 3 wireless driver fixes
- 1 more USB transfer fix

Thanks for your work man!
26 Feb build was running fine and there was nothing to complain about, I had no issues and no random reboots. I've just downloaded the new version and let's hope for the best! 😉

    Introduction

    Hello everyone, this is my personal kernel for the OnePlus 8 Pro, will use it as my daily driver as soon as I get the device! (hopefully very early next week)
    My philosophy on the kernel is pretty simple, intended to replace the stock kernel, but with a lot of under-the-hood tweaks.

    Hopefully you will all enjoy!

    Important thread information!

    I refuse to acknowledge/respond to bug reports that do not include clear steps to reproduce, a logcat, and a console ramoops (if random rebooting) or a dmesg (any other issues). Follow this guide to do this.
    Keep things civil, no flaming in the forums!

    Features

    • Up to date with OxygenOS 11 source
    • Compiled with Google's Clang toolchain for maximum stability, with all warnings and errors fixed
    • Compiled with Clang's cortex-a55 optimizations
    • Many tweaks under the hood for smoother UX, lower battery drain, etc.
    • Westwood as the default congestion algorithm
    • Includes WireGuard
    • Includes KCAL support
    • Available to flash with AnyKernel3

    - Removed a ton of debugging from the WLAN driver, and fixed some code errors

    - Pulled in latest Oneplus kernel source for OOS 11.0.1.1

    New kernel in Post 2!

    Changelog:
    - Clang compiler optimization from CAF, as well as subsequent code fixes to go with it
    - Updated Wireguard to latest 0520 version
    - Updated Anykernel3 to latest
    - Remove some annoying UFS dmesg spam
    - Remove one more resource hog debugger from the graphics render hot path

    This should give a nice speed boost as well for screen on :)

    I won't post new kernels for a few days, my new components are arriving today, so will take time to redo my build system.
    In case anyone is wondering:
    - ASUS TUF B450 Pro Gaming (I had a previous ASUS TUF Z170 Pro Gaming, which I loved!)
    - AMD Ryzen 3600 (6 cores, 12 threads -> should be a nice upgrade from my current i5-6500, which only has 4 cores, 4 threads)
    - I already had 32Gb DDR4 RAM in the system, that is not changing
    25
    OK guys, I'm back. New Ryzen system is up and running, and building a kernel now only takes 3.5 minutes!!! Previsouly it was 11-12... DAMN impressed.
    23
    New kernel here, since there were no source updates in latest kernel push from OnePlus: https://github.com/kristofpetho/kernel_oneplus_sm8250/releases

    Changelog:
    - Updated Clang to 11.0.4 (Google)
    - Reverted to using userspace WLAN and rmnet drivers to fix remaining VoWiFi issues

    Enjoy!
