[KERNEL]Radioactive Kernel V2.3.1 [2021.11.18][OOS/CUSTOM ROMS][UNIFIED OP8/OP8Pro/OP8T]

[Ryano89]

@acuicultor bro with latest kernel on 8T I was having random reboots on 11.0.8.14 and beta 7. I came back to 2
2.2 and no more reboot. I'm not using any other mod.

Strange. I've used 2.2.5 on beta 7 and now 10.10 for a long time now with zero reboots. Have you changed any kernel settings with kernel manager app?

There's no swap file for virtual memory, we're using zram.

RAM boost on or off is better?

 

[acuicultor]

Depends on user preference, i personally have it off.

Ok, thanks for answer.

You prefer zram disabled did i understood?

No, zram must be enabled, we were talking about oos ram boost.

Can this kernel be used on 8t h2os？

Very very good in H2O OS

Tried latest, and lost all network on EE Network. O2 sim fine. Stock seems fine with both. Any ideas?

First of all download the correct kernel zip for your rom (Use CUSTOM labeled for custom roms only)
Make sure that if you coming from another custom kernel it don't modify any system files or dtb/dtbo, if it does you MUST reflash your rom before flashing this kernel, same goes if you want to roll back from here to your previous kernel

Hi, I would like to test this kernel in my phone (currently using custom AICP rom) and I don't understand this statement. Does it mean that I have to flash the current .zip of my ROM, and afterwards from the recovery without rebooting, flash the kernel?
Of course I don't know if AICP uses a custom kernel that modifies system files or dtb/dtbo -_-

Just flash the custom version of the kernel and you're good to go. In another side, nice to see you here mate, ping me on Telegram if you have any problems.

A nice coincidence indeed so I tried to ADB sideload the kernel from the recovery, but the installer told me "wrong android version". AICP is version 11 so it should work, right? I also had to confirm that I trust the wrong signature verification but I guess that's expected. Thanks!

You can't sideload anykernel zips afaik, use twrp or any kernel tweaker app with flash option like fkm, exkm to flash the kernel.

Hangs on boot with the latest 5.9.2 OTA for EvoX.

I daily this kernel ever since I run custom ROM's as it's absolutely amazing but unfortunately it no longer boots..

Just intrested why zram should be enabled? Is it because kernel is coded to use it or something else? I just noticed swap tornado module thread and would like to know is there benefits to disable zram if not using heavy ram consuming apps and games?

If you're on OOS you should keep it enabled as the system "expects" it to be there. Custom ROMs vary from ROM to ROM

Confirmed working on latest evox and havoc builds.

Oos and his memory management system expect zram to be enabled, disabling it can cause problems.

Yeah it was my own mistake. I flashed just the boot.img backup from the past OTA with FKM. That boot loops. If I flash the full .zip package it works fine. My bad.

There is one weird thing tho. Totally not sure if it's ROM or kernel or whatever but after a while the brightness starts to act weird. Like, the first half of the slider does nothing up to like 55-60% and then it's all of the brightness adjustment in the last 35% ish. It's usually fine after a cold boot but not long.

I am using Auto high brightness mode from the kernel as well as forcing 10% min brightness but without those 2 it still acts weird. The 10% min also doesn't work anymore as it sets it to 10% correctly but that part of the slider doesn't do anything anymore...

It seems to work fine on the stock kernel of EvoX tho. At least, the 5 minutes I used it. Lol.
