hi XDA community, i'm here to share with you my little project, my primary goal is to provide a stable and fast kernel without compromising battery life plus some cool features that i find useful for the day to day usage.


Current Features

General List:

Compiled using Google's environment for GKI kernel build for maximum stability using latest google prebuilt clang 14.0.7

Packed with Anykernel3 with ability to preserve magisk root, thanks to eng.stk and osmosis for bringing this to Pixel6 series

Works on both devices (Pixel6 and Pixel6PRO)

Update system support via flasher apps ( Copy/paste link for auto updates )

Boeffla's wakelock blocker

BBR2 TCP set default and a lot more others to choose

Enabled power efficient workingqueues on various drivers

Fsync on/off support

PMU limiter tweaked for better battery life without compromising performance

TTL spoofing support enabled

Usb fast charge option

Option to choose 1080p FHD+ in settings

CleanSlate Features from @tbalden, all credits for the features to him (s2s, notification booster, battery saver, flashlight notifications. Note that rootless features like kadaway are not implemented here because we need root for other features to work properly with my tree)

Multi-gen LRU driver

DAMON driver configured but disabled by default

Removed dynamic debug core

Other stuff that is boring to write, take a look at my github for detailed information



NOTE: I'm shipping now the full gki kernel which means that no matter what kernel you were previously everything will get overwritten by flashing this via autoflash apps

ONLY COMPATIBLE WITH JANUARY 2023 SECURITY PATCH STABLE BRANCH BASED ROMS A13

[ RADIOACTIVE KERNEL INSTALL ]

DOWNLOADS HERE


First of all download the kernel zip of your choice, there's a flashable zip that can be flashed with your preferred kernel tweaker app and a FASTBOOT labeled zip with the necessary images to flash in fastboot if you want


Radioactive Kernel fastboot images flashing instructions:

NOTE: If you want to stay rooted patch the provided boot.img in magisk manager prior to flashing it via fastboot.
You need to adjust your command to flash like you did when rooting the device.

Flashing manually:

vendor_dlkm.img need to be flashed in fastbootd, while the other images need to be flashed via fastboot/bootloader.

How to boot to fastbootd?
From running phone:
adb reboot fastboot

From fastboot/bootloader:
fastboot reboot fastboot

Once in fastbootd:
fastboot flash vendor_dlkm vendor_dlkm.img

Boot from fastbootd to fastboot/bootloader to flash dtbo.img and boot.img:
Either select Reboot to bootloader option via buttons
or type:
fastboot reboot bootloader

Now in fastboot flash boot.img and dtbo.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img

Reboot either via buttons
or by typing
fastboot reboot


Flashing using authomated flash script:

Run flash-RadioactiveKernel.sh in linux
or
Run flash-RadioactiveKernel.bat in windows

NOTE: If you want to stay rooted if you gonna flash the fastboot images you MUST patch the provided boot.img in magisk manager then rename the magisk patched file to boot.img or modify the script with the correct boot.img name

Enjoy!!!!



Instructions using Ex kernel manager or any other app with autoflash support:

* Flash Kernel Zip

* Reboot

* Enjoy!!!

I'm also providing a similar magisk module like kirisakura kernel does but it's slighty modified and adapted for my tree all credits to Freak07 for the original idea, it's bundled into kernel zip, AK3 Helper Module , i higly advice to not remove it for better experience with the kernel

AK3 Helper Module:
Set ro.debuggable to 0 to avoid dev options fc
Various tweaks on PMU limiter, DAMON driver and Multi-gen LRU


Thanks and Credits to developers:

Of course, I had never been able to create all that by my own. So I want to give credits to the really good developers around, that have given me all the inspiration and from which I cherry picked lots of the implemented functionalities:


* SultanXda

* Ordenkrieger

* LordBoeffla

* zx2c4

* Freak07

* osmosis

* kristofpetho

* tbalden

* Chainfire

* BitOBSessiOn

* nathanchance

* Yaroslav Furman

* eng.stk

* Flar2

* joshuous

* dabug123

* franciscofranco

* RenderBroken

* moludo

* Lozo2010

... I just hope I did not forget someone. If so, please let me know and I will add you of course.

Thanks to all of you for your great work

I also want to say thank you to my friends and testers and to those who donated me a beer or two

Boeffla's wakelock blocker

BBR TCP set default and a lot more others to choose

mq-deadline set as default i/o scheduler

Enabled power efficient workingqueues on various drivers

Fsync on/off support

Linux Random Number Generator driver from kirisakura kernel

Power suspend driver

Other stuff that is boring to write, take a look at my github for detailed information



NOTE: For now i don't modify vendor_boot so you must have stock one in place in order to use this kernel

ONLY COMPATIBLE WITH DECEMBER SECURITY PATCH ROMS

DOWNLOADS HERE


First of all download the kernel zip of your choice, there's a flashable zip that can be flashed with your preffered kernel tweaker app and a FASTBOOT labeled zip with the necessary images to flash in fastboot if you want

VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure that if you coming from another custom kernel it don't modify vendor_boot , if it does you MUST reflash your rom before flashing this kernel or flash stock vendor_boot acording to your rom version.

I'm also providing a similar magisk module like kirisakura kernel does but it's slighty modified and adapted for my tree all credits to Freak07 for the original idea, it's up to users to use it or not, it's not necessary at all for the correct function of the kernel

Raviole_custom_powerhint-magisk Module:
restrict little cluster to 1,4ghz, mid cluster to 1,49ghz and big cluster to 1,58ghz during screen off, to reduce battery usage for example during music playback

There he is! What happened to your telegram channel bro?

There he is! What happened to your telegram channel bro?

People on tg were leaking stuff from the group so i decided to close it, simple as that. I keep the development related talks here at xda-developers where always should have been.

 

[i42o]

So far so good. I really enjoy this kernel . My phone is running beautifully with the latest December update from Google. I had to manually change the aisle scheduler from BFQ to MQ-DEADLINE . ASIDE FROM THAT EVERYTHING IS RUNNING GREAT ON THIS THANK YOU VERY MUCH

 

[foobar66]

Thanks for this kernel. Had a go at it ... I noticed something.
When charging on USB port of PC, charging barely happens (extremely slow).
I reflashed the standard kernel and it appears to me that charging on USB port is faster with the standard kernel.

However ... I did not do any big formal measurement so this may be a bogus comment ...

What is did notice using: "adb shell dumpsys battery"

a) RadioActive kernel

Current Battery Service state:
  AC powered: false
  USB powered: true
  Wireless powered: false
  Max charging current: 100000
  Max charging voltage: 5000000
  Charge counter: 2152000
  status: 4
  health: 2
  present: true
  level: 41
  scale: 100
  voltage: 3811
  temperature: 235
  technology: Li-ion

b) Google (standard) kernel

Current Battery Service state:
  AC powered: false
  USB powered: true
  Wireless powered: false
  Max charging current: 500000
  Max charging voltage: 5000000
  Charge counter: 2320000
  status: 2
  health: 2
  present: true
  level: 45
  scale: 100
  voltage: 3875
  temperature: 251
  technology: Li-ion

So you can see that the 'max charging current' is higher on the Google kernel.
I'm guessing there is a kernel config for it? Not sure, I'm not really an expert in this.
Again, this is on USB charging on PC.

Hope this feedback is useful ... and thanks again ...

 

[skipabeat123]

Warning alert! Stupid noobish question incoming. You have been warned.

Is this peace of software influencing/changing the drivers responsible for the efficiency of P6P modem? In safe mode I'm getting 4h OST max and I see network standby responsible for +35% battery drain. I am desperate.

Thanks for the feedback, charging driver is completely stock i didn't change a single line of code on that, btw I'll keep an eye on this matter to make sure everything is on place.

Sorry but everything is stock also in that matter, only changed TCP congestion algorithm to bbr but that doesn't change your cell reception issue, sorry.

 

[Vio281]

how do you flash stock vendor_boot ? gotta be in fastbootd?

fastboot flash boot vendor_boot.img?

 

[wolfeyes30]

In bootloader not fastbootd

fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img

 

[ajsmsg78]

Flashed the kernel, everything is working great. Being able to toggle HBM mode in EXKM is awesome for eye searing brightness.

 

[abalam]

Ramon= GOD.
Pixel 6 stock OEM

 

[PrinceLc]

When I flash the kernel with FKM do I must patch again the boot.img for root with Magisk or is the boot.img already patched for root ? Thanks
