Since that update my Wi-Fi stopped working twice. I know the kernel shouldn't be responsible for that, but it was the only change on the system for weeks...

I'm in the exact same situation with multiple wifi disconnects today and yesterday.

I didn't change anything else recently than the kernel, so I can't think of another reason..but I always read in this thread that the kernel doesn't change any wifi settings.

Edit: I'll reflash 43 and check if that changes anything. Atm I can't even connect to WiFi without restarting my phone.
Been there, the problem in my case was that the FKU app flashed the CAF version and I have a OOS based Rom. Switching to the correct version brought back my wifi.

Just my five cents

That must be what happened for us as well (I'm on stock OOS). Flashing kernel 43 fixed my issues, so I've now manually downloaded and flashed kernel 44 from the source mentioned in the OP.

I'll edit this later today to report if I've really got the right version now :p Strange that the FKU app downloaded the wrong version.

Edit: Got the problem again, so probably I'm still on the wrong kernel 44. What is the right link for it then? I went for the 8.0 OOS kernel versions.

How did you find out? Where can I check the correct version of r44?

That's really weird, if you are running official OOS the right link should be the one in the OP that puts "OOS Android 8.0", IDK if it matters but are you running an OB or CB version of OOS? In my case I'm on ExperienceOS and after flashing the correct r44 everything is fine.

How I found out? Had the same issue in the past with other devices and Roms. Now the correct version for you depends on what Rom you are using. If you're on a custom LOS based Rom use the CAF version. If you have a OOS based Rom (custom or stock) you should use the Android 8.0 OOS version of the kernel.

It is all in the OP

I'm on actual stock OOS from OnePlus, so normal 5.0.6. I'm also very sure I got it from the right link and flashed that zip instead of the backup r44 version that was already in the kernel backups folder. (since this version has anykernel in the name when you download it yourself) I thought maybe the OOS 8.0.0 r44 is switched with another version, but if you're using another version of OOS and you don't have any issues with r44 that shouldn't be it.

It's very strange, @franciscofranco do you have any idea what might be the problem?

I'm fine with staying on r43 for now (which has stayed connected to my Wi-Fi the whole day so far again), but it would be a shame if I can't use any upcoming version after it

I'm on stock OOS and the update came through the FK app.
I have to restart the phone once a day to get Wi-Fi back.

If you updated from the app it is much like that it installed the CAF version or at least that happened in my case. Try to flash in twrp the OOS version and see if it solves the problem.

What do you mean by "CAF"?

I rolled back to r43 and will test for 2 days if the kernel is the problem. I downloaded the r44 from the first post and will install that one on saturday if r43 behaves as it should.

The CAF version is s the one designed for Lineage OS and other custom Roms. If your Rom is OOS a CAF kernel can cause problems such as wifi not working.

Download and flash in twrp the latest r44 in the option "OOS android 8.0" in the OP

That's really strange. With r43 everything is OK, but no matter which r44 I take (update manually or by FK app) the WiFi is missing at least once a day.

Same here, although I'm going to try it again today. So far updating through the app got the Wi-Fi missing again in a few hours.

Edit: went for the web download as well, it seemed fine yesterday but today it couldn't find any Wi-Fi spots again until a restart. Back to r43 it is.
I've also encountered a strange phone freeze with r44, where the phone is still on (notification light keeps blazing) but won't respond to any buttons and the screen stays dark. Had to force shutdown to restart.

This actually already happened on my first r44 installation too, after being on the charger during the night. I didn't mention it before because it seemed a bit too random, but it has happened 3 times in the last few days now and always when on r44. (No clear pattern, although I think it just doesn't wake-up properly after deep sleep).
Haven't had this happen before on my phone.

Something wrong with the new kernel and wi fi, since I flashed it's buggy, doesn't connect with my router and router at work unless I reboot the phone!
Some users - and me - reported that already. Franco wanted to have a look at it.
