DOWNLOAD KERNEL ZIP
FKM download configs: oos | custom
(No mirrors please)
Setup and troubleshoot: To install just flash the zip on a stock setup with either TWRP or autoflash kernel app.
If you come from other kernel or have any issues, you should restore your stock boot.img or dirty flash your ROM before flashing blu_spark zip to avoid problems. Also uninstall or clean data of any kernel control app you're using.
If you are upgrading between blu_spark versions, just flash the kernel zip.
About bugs and reports: don't bother to post if a log isn't ready or without steps so the behavior can be replicated. I only active support stock OOS ROM with NO mods whatsoever (apart from root). That includes NO support if using xposed, Magisk with added modules, etc.
If you're using custom ROMs (including stock based ones) and OOS Open Betas you're much on your own. I'm mostly interested on debugging stuff in stock and stable OOS.
Also try not to spam the thread with OT. There's threads for all kind of stuff, use them.
Going back to stock: This kernel installer doesn't change your filesystem. You can backup your boot.img with TWRP or kernel app before flashing blu_spark if you want to go back to full stock or just dirty flash your full ROM.

blu_spark r12 release
All right crew!
It's that time again, 1st build is up :highfive:
This kernel source is unified for OP8/Pro, don't know how it will run in the regular model (can only test in the Pro). Let me know.
At the moment we're maybe at 80% of the usual goodies, get a nice and stable base and go from there.
I'm building with clang currently got some hiccups with gcc. I'll probably revisit this in the future but it will need more TLC.
You can now use FKM download kernel feature, just import the links bellow in the app :highfive:
blu_spark_r12release
FKM download configs: oos | custom
Build with latest Google Clang version 11.0.2 (Android 11) - blu_gcc may come in the future, needs som TLC
Synchronize codes for OnePlus 8 Oxygen OS 10.5.9.IN21AA and OnePlus 8 Pro Oxygen OS 10.5.10.IN11AA
Build errors and warnings fixes
Compiling improving and target optimizations
Goodies: IO and filesystem stuff, priorities and UX, touchboost, zram, wakelock blocker, haptic and gestures level, adrenoboost, etc
wireguard updates (v1.0.20200611)
init adjust for sdm8250
AnyKernel3 latest updates
For root, stable Magisk 20.4 or newer is mandatory

ur kernel is great for daily use when I have 6t, it's fast, smoot, and stable. do u plan to build one for oneplus 8?
Great to see your blu-spark here! Kudos
Great job! Any list of the best settings to activate for your kernel in FKM? Can't manage to activate westwood TCP method, it gets stuck to reno, for example. Or any config file to have the best settings selected, maybe? Sorry, I'm not too familiar with FKM yet.
Hey there, welcome. Nice to see you here.
Just one question, why are so many features listed in the OP and many or most not in the sources on GitHub? Isn't this a copy paste error?

After installing this kernel I'm getting an option to boost GPU clock to 900 MHz. This also resulted in a much higher compute score. Is this normal? @eng.stk

You probably still have custom dtb from the kernel that have gpu oc, since this kernel doesn't replace the dtb and you switched kernels without keeping that in mind you ended up with mixed kernel images and dtbs.

So, how is that much GPU OC possible? that's almost double the stock max frequency!
EDIT: You were right, it was from "Evira Kernel". Now my question is, is that much OC safe? That's insane.
Do note that my device didn't get hot when I was running the benchmark even at 900 MHz.

At the bootloader unlock screen, after a few seconds, the text turns green and has black lines through it, when it finishes booting, by the screen goes completely black. Vibration and sound still work though. Have to force power off and back to TWRP to restore stock boot.

By flashing this kernel, you accept your fate.
This is my personal project, because of the lack of any custom kernels that had the features I want. So let me introduce myself. First of all, I'm noob in kernel developing. I've been using many great kernels on my Desire HD and Nexus 4. I've been hoping for such a kernel for our devices for the last 3 months but as it seems, more time is spent on cooking roms instead of kernel development. So well, here we are. I've been working on that for the last two weeks so, this is probably stable, but the alpha tag will stay at least till more people confirm that it works on different roms.
Initial kernel features:
Compiled with stock toolchain (for now)
Disabled software CRC + option to turn it on
Disabled fsync + option to turn it on
Fixes for high cpu load times, which can cause some governors to not work as they should
Disabled zram - with 2/3 GB of ram in our devices, we don't really need that.
Added Kernel Samepage Merging - off by default
Added FIOPS and SIO i/o schedulers
Added ZZmove and ElementalX cpu governors
Added toggle for Touch boost - you can now turn that off.
Added full KCAL display settings support.
Other optimizations
Safe roms confirmed to be working with the kernel
Official AICP - tested by me
Official RR - tested by @nexuspur (Huge thanks to you mate!)
AOSP+RRO - tested by @sheshuvadrevu
Official AOKP - tested by @DarkHero140
CM by banmeifyouwant - tested by @CodeBreaker13
DU - tested by @Windslash31 and @DarkHero140
Not safe roms
Mokee - giving bootloops
Santosh's CM13 - giving bootloops.
Flashing Instructions
Flash only if you're using CM based roms that follows the official CM device/kernel/proprietary repos! That kernel IS NOT FOR MIUI or AOSP Rom
Make backup of boot in twrp
Flash the kernel zip and reboot
About feature requests
I'm sure that many of you will ask for feature A B C. Please don't mention wake gestures as dt2w and swipe2wake, because I will NOT add them. To rework all the gestures for that is a massive job. Even if it was an easy commit to cherry-pick, I still wont add it, because this is battery drainer. We have FP sensor so use it, or wake the device with the power/volume buttons.
Everything else as request is welcomed, but not guaranteed that it will get in the kernel. Remember this is my project and I'll be adding only features that I find useful.

Status: Stable
Current Stable Version: 1.0
Stable Release Date: 2016-07-11
Created 2016-07-10
Last Updated 2016-07-11
Changelogs:
KTO Stable 1.0
Added adreno idler driver for lowering the GPU power usage
Added the following tcp congestion algorithms: veno, reno, bic, westwood, highspeed, hybla, htcp, vegas, scalable, lp, yeah, illinois (Cubic as default)
Some optimizations here and there
KTO Stable 1.1
Added Alucard and Darkness governors. They both perform well. I'm using Alucard which is tuned a bit.
Some vibration tunes
Changed the toolchain from google's default to @DespairFactor UberToolchain 4.9. Sadly I get bootloops after Miui logo with 5.X so can't even get a logcat. Will debug that in the future.
KTO Stable 1.2
Unlocked 1440MHz for a53 and 1804MHz for a72 cores freqs, just like on Xiaomi's original kernel. (Thanks for the tip @Umang96)
QC 2.0 is added - Haven't seen any change with the stock charger. Temperature is normal. Charging around 1600 mah.
Alucard - tuned one more time for the new freqs.
KTO Stable 1.3
Synched with latest CM sources, so we have new led driver and many bugfixes.
Added hardware CRC32 accelerator
Fixed -2/50% bug for people that had if before
Fixed the sudden 2% battery drop bug
Added power suspend driver
Remove the so called "qc 2.0" fast charging. To be fair, I haven't seen any improvement in charging time, but the batter was going hot. Charge your device overnight.
Some entropy tuning
Other patches for better memory speeds

How to Bypass SafetyNet bootloader and/or root checks
* If comming from a clean flash of ROM or GAPS only do the following:
Magisk Approach
Flash the UnSu file from HERE
Flash my latest Kernel
Flash the latest Magisk from this thread:
Donwload Magisk Manager from the Playstore
Enable Magisk Hide in Magisk Manager
Profit, SafetyNet Checks will pass, all green!
SuperSU Approach
Flash the UnSu file from HERE
Flash my latest Kernel
Flash the latest SuperSU from this thread:
Donwload RootSwitch APP from HERE
Unpack the zip and install the apk inside it
Open Root Switch and disable root
Profit! SafetyNet checks will all be green!
Battery Life Extender (BLX) feature
In order to configure the cap you'll have to navigate to:
Code:
/sys/class/misc/batterylifeextender/charging_cap_level
edit the file and put the cap you want the battery to charge to, i won't recommend setting a cap lower than 90% cause then the phone could abruptely stop a fast charging cycle and damage your battery. If you want to have your phone charging to 100% just put 100 in the file and close it. No need to reboot, just plug and unplug your charger.
On a side note, this value will be set at 97% after every boot. So you'll need to manually change it back to 100.
Reserved
AX7Kernel Changelogs:
AX7Kernel R9 - 03/22/2017
Updated Source with ZTE Changes in B19 source code.
AX7Kernel R8 - 03/17/2017
Fixed NFC issue with B19 builds.
Updated WLAN driver to LA.UM.5.5.r1-03800-8x96.0 github from CAF
Fixed the SDCard error shown in R8 version from 03.16
AX7Kernel R8 - 03/16/2017
Updated to newest B15 Source dropped by ZTE a few days ago. This is mainly a Maintenance Update. Keep in mind the Kernel works with 7.1.1 but it breaks NFC, will be fixes most likely until a new sources is dropped by ZTE.
AX7Kernel R7 - 03/16/2017
For both STOCK and LOS Based versions. Upstream Linux Kernel to 3.18.45 thanks to jcadduono patches.
AX7Kernel R6 - 03/03/2017
Cap for battery charging set back to 100% by deffault. BLX Settings, you want to change them, refer to this POST and to this POST. If you want to extend your battery's life think about adding the cap to a 95 or 97%
Fixed the issue where the phone won't go into deep sleep at all.
WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT MODE is enabled by default now.
AX7Kernel R5 - 03/01/2017
Cap for battery charging set to 97% by deffault. BLX Settings, you want to change them, refer to this POST and to this POST. Your battery won't charge beyond 97%.
Added options to manipulate thermal settings, now you can choose when the phone will throtle the CPU or when to start shutting down cores to prevent damage. My recommendation don't push it too high or your phone might get damaged due to the high temps. It's not set to 60 Celcius so i recommend lowering that to avoid damage.
Added WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT MODE ( you'll need EX Kernel manager to get this, it's paid app but it's totally worth it guys)
Enabled the option to 'disable' some wakelocks. Disable them on your own risk. Wakelocks that can be disabled are: Bluedroid, wlan_rx, wlan_ctrl, wlan, IPA_WS, wlan_extscan_wl_ws, qcom_rx_wakelock_ws - You'll also need EX Kernel manager to get this options.
AX7Kernel R4 - 02/24/2017
Renamed both the Folder and Kernel zip file to appoint to the version. Now we'll have 2 versions, LOS and Stock AX7Kernel, make sure to check the zip name correctly to avoid issues when cross flashing kernels. All LOS/RR/AOKP and other LOS Based kernels will have the word LOS in it.
Fixed BLX feature. It should now properly stop the charging process when the battery has reached the cap_level set by users. Charge will resume once the charge drops from the cap assigned.
AX7Kernel R3 - 02/21/2017
Added one more step of OC (pushed just a little bit further)
Added my own and really simple implementation of BLX (battery life extender) based on the work made by bedalus for the OP3 and OP3T
AX7Kernel R2.3 - 02/17/2017
Updated to latest LOS Stock Kernel
Disabled some debugging
fixes to ZEN ioScheduler - highly recommended now.
Disabled color inversion in Kcal - can't be used anyways.
Fixed USB Fast Charge - Should worl properly now.
GPU OverClock - 684MHZ max frequency now.
Adreno Boost added and enabled (should boost GPU a bit)
Updates to interactive governor (should work better when operation are in the background and screen is off - music streaming is an example.
Changes to the Sync
Changes to Random function for IO ops.
Updates to Zram.
AX7Kernel R1 - 02/13/2017:

Link will still redirect to R7 , androidfilehost is conducting a server maintenance. Once completed I'll upload R8 to the usual file location!
EDIT: STOCK R8 has been uploaded. Again, keep in mind this release is not fully compatible with 7.1.1 it breaks NFC, until we get an updated source it will remain as is.
Happy Flashing!

Yeah i'm sorry, i had to take it down. Forgot to add the exfat module and that breaks SDCard support. Will work on this tomorrow morning and will reupload then. For now R7 is there
So this is a kernel for the stock firmware?? I have b19 unfortunately so I can't test, 1 thing I surely want you to add on the b19 version if you make one, aside from all these cool features is f2fs support please make it happen.

This works for the B19, only issue is that it breaks NFC. Other than that it works great

Dang it >_> then freeza is my only solution for now
In case if you're interested about why I'm asking for f2fs, I am doing so to dualboot my stock b19 using @sbr method , unfortunately stock is ext4 and secondary can't be f2fs because it takes part in data, both either have to be f2fs or ext4
it's a bit complicated >_>

Why is f2fs so important to people. Back in the day, yes, it was an improvement in speed. Now, with today's storage speeds, it's performance is negligible yet people still demand for it. Doesn't it just complaints things now?

Exactly what I was thinking too.
Feeling the same. It won't hurt to have support tough. I'll try to add it but I'm afraid it could break the anykernel aprox ah since the support needs to be added Ramdisk wise and for that I'll need to move away from the current kernel approach.
I'll take a look at the lazy flasher scripts from jcadduono to check if I can patch whatever Ramdisk user has
Finished the R8 build... It was a PITA to fix find the fix for SDCARD issue (it was kinda silly what was breaking it lol). Also updated WLAN driver to CAF LA.UM.5.5.r1-03800-8x96.0 version published yesterday and fixed the damn NFC in 7.1.1 builds (this most likely break NFC in 7.0 builds). I'm sorry if you are still in 7.0 and need NFC, move on! ..
I'll push the update once android file host is out of maintenance (around 30 mins from now).
As to F2FS i have enabled the driver in the kernel and stock ramdisk supports data as F2FS so i'm assuming it should work. Although i don't use so if it doesn't i won't fix it

Download the bootstack of the firmware you have and flash it.

So does the stock version suffer from video playback issue like freeza's kernal?

Kernel features:
Build with custom toolchain blu_gcc-8.2.0 (cortex-a73.cortex-a53 targeted, build with latest Crosstool-NG from GCC-8.2.0 snapshot)
Full -O2 build with device and target flags enhanced, linaro build improvements, etc

Removed some debug and logging options
ARM enhanced performance and battery patches
CVE security patches, general upstream and CAF fixes
Several CPU Governors (blu_active modded own governor by default - fastlane mode available!)
No OC, use 100HZ base timer frequency
msm_performance input boost toggle on/off (enabled by default), tweaked cpu_boost driver (Dynamic stune available)
Enhanced TCP methods (westwood is default), Network and Wifi tweaks and updated drivers
Several I/O control tweaks, added schedulers FIOPS and ZEN v2 is default, tweaked and upstreamed filesystems (F2FS, ExFAT, NTFS, CIFS & NFS)
Removed verify and doesn't force encryption, patched SafetyNet flags to pass CTS
Stock thermal driver by default (custom tunables available for ROMs with no thermal daemon)
Disabled hotplug, also on low battery levels (CTL and BCL)
Optimized crypto routines
Swap and adaptive LMK off by default

Compatible with Kernel Adiutor and others
DOWNLOAD KERNEL ZIP (No mirrors please)
Warning: If you come from other kernel or have any issues, you should dirty flash your ROM before flashing blu_spark zip to avoid problems.
Reflash ROM -> if you want root flash SuperSU or Magisk (default, no plugins/modules) -> flash blu_spark.
If you are already rooted or upgrading between blu_spark versions, just flash the kernel zip. Also uninstall or clean data of any kernel control app you're using.
About bugs and troubleshoots: don't bother to post if a log isn't ready or without steps so the behavior can be replicated. I only active support stock ROM with NO mods whatsoever (apart from root). That includes NO support if using xposed, Magisk with modules, etc.
Save the SOT and battery stats/screenshots for general threads, here we deal with development, not personal tastes and results.
Also don't spam this thread with LOS or other ROMs stuff like "this don't work, my app doesn't open, etc" , no OT about OTAs, apps, ROM bugs, Recovery/TWRP troubleshoots and other userspace stuff. There's threads for it, use them.
Going back to stock: This kernel installer doesn't change your filesystem. You can backup your boot.img with TWRP before flashing blu_spark if you want to go back to full stock or just dirty flash your full ROM.

Man I'd like to try this. Still don't fully understand the process. I did a little messing around with my gs7 edge. Although it was pretty simple. Literally just flashed a custom stock rom with Odin and had SuperSU built it with rom controls and a simple tar img to flash to root and rom control easy unroot button. Was first time I was had a phone I could do something with. New territory for me. Will have to tread lightly lol.

Hello @eng.stk
We have a common friend that shipped me his nubia. Martinusbe aka the Grumpy Clown it is lol.
I'd like to try to continue his work on red magic with GZR roms but i have a weird issue on it 1st of all...the damn bootloader keeps relocking itself on his own, even after flashing twrp and omni on it.
I know they shipped as tarball the kernel but well...i'll try as well.
Any way to contact you in pm on telegram hangouts or something please? ...to avoid an off topic here.
Thx.

@eng.stk I know you stopped working on this device long ago since Max stopped making OMNi i guess! i have tried to take someone on-board for development. I was even ready for donating like 5 from my side. NUBIA ditched the international users on Oreo update. even the security patch is october 2018. They gave a update in china for pie. But there are deaf and silent on the pie international updates. The GSI are riddled with sounds issues are there no one who picks this device. Phh is busy man. Even with logs i tried to help him. But he can't. I hope this device is still lying somewhere with you. Can you share and point someone who can start development for this device like lineageOs or something like that. Because Alex's phone doesn't work somehow with anything he tried. So there are no updates from his side. Its not like i have tried to make ROM. I have burnt my laptop motherboard while trying to make ROM. Max said this device killed his two sim cards so he is not willing to work onto this device. I had asked a lot of people in my own country to work onto it. But no one came forward as i said when i tried with money also. Paypal don't work with my bank account. That's the irony and i don't know anyone who can do this.

Best op6 kernel is already available for 6t ?
There is not even a TWRP to flash the kernel and you already made the kernel. Nice work :good: :highfive:
@eng.stk: Thank you buddy for your continued support, we are proud to have you on the developer team
I am suppose to get a device within next 48 hours so i will flash and report.
Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the kind words my friend. Wouldn't be as much without your support
Yeah test it out and let me know!
OMG its awesome to see u here this soon
That was fastttttt, custom kernel served even before we are seated at the custom recovery table.
My device should be delivered tomorrow.
Its going to be Blusparked ASAP. Switching from oneplus 5T to 6T
I have twrp on my OP6T, but decryption doesn't work so i cant restore my backup. ill try and flash when i fixed that.

So to be clear, does the twrp work when no screen lock is set ? Cant test anything as the 6T is yet to be delivered

TWRP works but decryption does not, regardless of whether screen lock is disabled or not.
I want to try this kernel but a bit too risky at the mo as we have no way to restore a backup and there are no factory images available as yet.

Oh i see. It is risky no doubt but I am sure it wont be long before working TWRP will be out. Fingers crossed
@eng.stk: Look what's Rocking my Fajita :laugh:
Kernel boots fine, everything works, nothing broken. Used Enchilada 9.86 TWRP, boots fine but has decryption issues so had to sideload the kernel. Thank you once again for your continued support and i look forward to a fully compatible TWRP :highfive:
Edit: Temporary Workaround till we get a fully compatible Blu TWRP :laugh:
Brave! Nice work from all around though
EDIT: Kernel working fine here too!

Seems this phone doesn't have notification light. Does this solve in this kernel as mentioned.

No it will not add a LED to your phone... it's just a placeholder from the OP6.
Finally rooted and Blusparked my 6T through adb sideload on temporary recovery :laugh:
Device definitely feels more fluid and responsive as expected. The customised vibration is a wonderful addition.
Thanks eng.stk, great work as always

Hey, NoGravity Kernel dev here! You may already know me from my other supported phones (OnePlus 2, F1, Mi 8, X3 Pro, F2, F3, F4) I've graduated with a bachelor degree in computer science and I actually work as a C# programmer. NGK's mindset is Performance/smoothness while getting good battery life due to added battery oriented features.
I currently do not own the device, but if you like my work and want to support me, a crowdfunding was made in order to speed up the development for this phone
(Scroll down for Telegram Group link where I'll be most of the time)
The Kernel will boot using Balance Profile when Magisk is present. Other profiles for battery, performance and gaming can be switched to in my app.
To tweak the kernel easily, here's my No Gravity app! featuring custom profiles (Battery, Balanced, Performance and Gaming & Gaming+). My app offers some device specific features that can't be found in other kernel tweaking apps. You can find them lower in the thread.)
-No Gravity app! support
-Compiled with Proton Clang + O3 + Polly + LTO optimizations
-KernelSU support
-NGK Thermal locking mechanism*
-DC Dimming
-Boeffla Wakelock Blocker
-Optional Proximity Sensor blocking for Telegram / Nekogram
-High Brightness Mode
-AdrenoBoost
-GPU UC/OC : 150MHz / 905MHz
-CPU Input boost driver instead of CPU boost
-Devfreq boosting
-Enabled WALT, disabled PELT
-Using Big and Prime clusters for specific performance critical events
-Devfreq boosting for various events like app opening
-Disabled ZRAM by default (Only if ROM doesn't override it)
-USB Fast Charging
-Various GPU & libs optimizations
-VDSO for better 32 bit performance
-Small debloat
-Merged in latest CLO Tags
-Always upstreamed to latest (4.19.282)
-And many more under the hood changes & optimizations
Note: Some features aren't enabled yet for this specific phone, but they'll come in future updates
-Monet theme adapting to your ROMs colors dynamically
-Injected sepolicies to work on Enforcing SELinux
-Kernel & App update checker (Direct install of kernel and app)
-Balance(Default),Performance,Battery,Gaming & Gaming+ Profiles (QSTile available)
-Custom Profile Creator Page that let's you create and share profiles with the NGK community (/SDCARD/NGK/PROFILES/)
-Precise CPU temperature for each Clusters separately
-Per-App Tweaks Page to load tweaks for specific apps
-CPU Page with following tunables:
-CPU Governor
-CPU Frequency Selection Algorithm (Linear/Exponential)
-CPU Min/Max Frequencies
-Input boost

-CPU Temps/Freqs
-GPU Temps/Freqs
-Battery Temps/Percentage
-RAM usage
-Kernel Page to let you control:
-App optimization (ART) Button
-Thermals:
NoGravity (NGK’s default) || Battery || Stock one
-Sultan PID read optimizations
-ZRAM
-GPU Page:
-GPU Stats
-Min/Max GPU Freq Selector
-High Brightness Mode
-Content Adaptive Backlight Control
-Adrenoboost
-Touchscreen firmware selector
-Proximity Gestures Switch to pulse ambient dispay on Hand Wave
-Pick-Up Gesture Switch to pulse ambient display when device is taken
-Pixel 3 Flip to Shhh feature
-DTS Eagle (Sound) Info Page
-More will be added...
-More features...
-Let me know what you want and those may be added!
This kernel should work on any ROM & MIUI!
-I recommend before coming to conclusion, give it at least 2 complete charge cycles and then raise any issue.
- I recommend to use my app, franco app or EX Kernel Manager if you need to tweak the kernel further
-Flash No_Gravity_Kernel-vX.X.zip file in TWRP (Latest TWRP Recovery Recommanded)
-(Optional) - Clear cache and Dalvik => if you do so, Use App Optimization button in NGK App to regenerate ART or let device charge at idle at 100% for some time (that's when android runs optimizations).

Files (Kernel section) for people having screen content dimension issues (mostly seen on miui) its been tested quickly and reported to work, thanks to @AbdulazizHashim
Hope all is fine now (pinch to zoom, telegram replies, UI size, genshin joystick size)
For those who don't know what dtbo is, if you face any of the above mentioned issues flash corresponding dtbo for your device after flashing the kernel.zip and it should fix you issues.
Now hopefully, I can go to bed
Hotfix is out for kernel (1.0.1) and app (6.1.1!)
Changelog post(#2) updated, thread updated.
Hi, how do you flash the dtbo image, i flashed it in fastboot mode with adb, and phone went in a bootloop, softbrick

Hey! what about gaming performance with this kernel?
NGK community just hit 5k members on Telegram Also happy to let you know that I received Recognized Developer tag on XDA with NGK expanding to F2/F3/F4/Mi10T lately.
Thanks everyone
A good journey, from OnePlus 2 to Xiaomi phones (F1/Mi 8) and now Xiaomi (Kona) devices (F2/F3/F4/Mi10T)
That being said, not forcing anyone to do so but if you would like to support my work and help NGK get features / updates / fixes faster, you can help me get a Kona device from here :
Crowdfunding
or from paypal directly :
Paypal
Thanks to everyone who already did, that's appreciated

See if it has root access in magisk and look in about phone the kernel name.

yep, didnt flash the kernel correctly first time. Just flashed it again and the app works fine. Thanks for the quick response!
Updates are out! Thread & changelog post updated. 🫡
I also want to thank everyone who supports me in the Crowdfunding it's going well. This help fix & speed up NGK development for those devices. I dont want to force anyone, but if you want to support my work you can do so from above link or via Paypal (I will add those donations manually to the crowdfunding).
Thanks again!
App hotfix is out 🫡 (for kernel page issue some users were facing)
If you had the issue, it means your cache partition was read only. If you want your cache to be read-write, just format it. If not, no problem app will work fine anyway now.
hello, when I want to turn off zram, it says processing first, then it says disable, but when I restart the phone, it comes back as 4096mb reserved. where am i doing wrong?

Maybe you just dont wait long enough for the app to apply on boot. It should say processing a bit after booting (when ngk app gets bootcomoleted + root access)
Hello, I am using PE+ but unfortunately it doesn't provide support for exfat format for my otg so I am finding a kernel that will provide support for exfat format so should I flash this kernel for that?
