Z5 custom kernels.... which one are out there? - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hellou !
I am curious to which kernel are out there for z5?
Curently settling for nougat rom, .106 exactly and androplus kernel .43, .42 results in bootloop, is there more kernels to find in active development?
Curious for other custom roms too. (let say stock mm,...)

For the last nougat there is not a kernel. There is a lot of custom roms but there are LOS based so are not stock. With those roms you can use a modified kernel.

Thank you for heads up, i kinda feel you, z5 is a great, but horrible phone in one. I hate it in mid day when battery dries but love it mornings when i bake egs with it
But thanks to you and other devoted devs z5 goes through, just barely thogh, i will remain Sony user but next model i buy i will check twice and then recheck again.

[Q] Kernel for overclocking CM11S

Hi guys. I've been following both the android and original android development sections of the OPO forum and have found no kernel that can overclock the OnePlus One running stock (rooted and BL unlocked) CM11s.
So, my question is very simple: is there any kernel that overclocks CM11s? (Yes, i know it is plenty fast already, the only purpose i have for it is bragging rights at the bar TBFH and to see how far it can go)
There is currently no custom kernel with overclocking features that will boot on CM11S.
If you really want it then you can go and flash a custom ROM and flash a kernel such as ak kernel which does have overclocking up to 2880MHz.
Do not flash ak kernel while on 11S, your phone will not boot.

Thank you for you answer. Yes, I realize it wont boot on CM11S. infact, that is the first warning you read upon seeing the kernel.
I guess I will have to wait, since I think CM11S is by far the best ROM for the OnePlus... I had already installed 5 different roms on it and flashed furnace kernel only to see no difference in benchmarks (i think it's because it throttles, even though i stuck it in the cooler)

Benchmarks mean absolutely nothing. Its all about day-to-day performance. Custom ROMs are better in my opinion because currently on 11S there are numerous crucial bugs that are affecting the phone from being used. Just to name some,
- In-call audio volume fixed.
- Some workarounds on the touchscreen problem.
... the list goes on and on but I don't feel like explaining all of them but custom ROMs offer a lot more features than what stock has to offer plus they give you a sneak preview of whats to come in the next OTA without having to wait for it.
The decision is up to you, they're all free after all. Thats the joy of custom ROMs and kernels

Advices about ROM and Kernel

Hi all,
I know this question was asked a lot of times but I was away from this community for a lot of time so I need some info.
I'm using Back-to-Note v13.1 and Arter kernel last version.
I'd like to update my device but I'm not sure what rom+kernel combo to flash.
I need stability and a really good battery life, extreme performance is not my main goal since normal one is enough.
Thanks a lot!
Stock ROM.... when do you people finally understand. If you need root, just change the kernel and stay on stock ROM. The stock ROM is the fastest and smoothest with highest battery life.
I can understand and accept your point of view but a well developed Custom ROM is way better than Stock ROM.
Right now, the only stock one I'm interested to is the official MM release!

How to know which kernel to use ?

Hi guys
I have a old Moto g 1st gen (xt1032)
And been trying to get it running now but with not much luck.
The bootloader is unlocked and twrp installed and I installed a stock rom but it keep crashing about once or twice a day so I formatted everything and installed another rom can't remember the name right now but was comparable for my model .
And that won't get passed the black "android" screen
So been looking into it and people mention kernels but I haven't got a clue about them tbh so how can I tell which kernel I need or do they suit all ROMs
Can anyone suggest a matching kernel and rom
Cheers

I'm a lot really late but just a try a few different ROMs and make sure they say XT1032 or Falcon. ID crisis and Exodus are good 6.x ROM that are very stable. As for kernels, unless you really want to do some low level tweaks that require kernel intergretaion like Overclock, DT2W, CPU governer, etc., I wouldn't worry about it.
If you DO want a kernel I can't recommend ZERO Byte kernel by @BryanByteZ enough. Under volt/clock and over/volt clock, DT2W, it's got everything. Works great with Exodus

Sooo about that a good start is to flash the latest stock 5.1 then flash twrp and choose a 6.X rom (based on cm13) and that depends of your likes and wishes if you want a stable like rock rom i recommend AOSP+OMS 6.X/EXODUS/VanirAOSP if you want customizations there is Ressurection Remix,Dirty Unicorns and others, you just "need" to flash other kernel if you want more advanced features. This is just a recommendation for roms but lucky we have Kitkat,lollipop,marshmallow and nougat roms.
Thanks for the replies guys
I'm beginning to think I have a hardware problem on the phone.
I installed 3 versions of stock 5.1 on it last night
Eu,Brazil,and US I think they were they all install without errors
But only the Eu one boots up the other 2 stay on the "android" black screen.
The one that does boot us unstable though and crashes quite often .
That's why I thought about kernels and maybe it was that as I'm not sure if I need a certain one on my phone or any compatible one will do.

Well I already passed on that I change my bootloader to the one from BR stock 5.1 and now everything works fine. Try to change data partition to f2fs file system.

What Stock-based ROM are you still using (2018)?

Just got a spare Z3, and since this device has been quite inactive on developments and such, the most preferred route is to stay stock for stability.
Now, I looked on our Android Development section and there seems to have a couple of stock-based ROMs which are good, and now, even in 2018, I was wondering what stock-based ROMs you guys are still using?
Any bias comments are welcome as long as it's spoken through experience. Also, a combination of Stock-based ROM a Custom Kernel would be nice to hear as well, if you use those.
Thanks guys for noticing~
:good:
Ever heard of OFFICIALLY supported
I use carbon Rom. It's supported officially.
And TWRP 3.2.1.0
Use gapps or mindthegapps
Updated weekly before. Now it's monthly.
No bugs, stable!!
0 problems in 2018
With that firmware & hardware

Any ways to use cyberian camera on carbon oreo? Right now im using existenz on my z3c, everything is ok and it has tones of customizations i can recommend for z3 too. But the best rom for battery is still slimm rom. Whatever lets turn back to my question, only because it is not possible use cyberian cam on carbon oreo i will go for carbon nougat with xperia ui. Can you share your experience with snapdragon camera if you use oreo version?
i have djust used the default camera app that came preinstalled with the rom. as 3rd party apps arent as good as stock. And its really good enough.
and i dont like to use outdated roms still on 6.0 M
im a crazy chronic updater.

search in the Carbon or Omni Thread, someone posted magisk Modules for this
There should also be a guide in there for (regular) flashing this.

Refresher and opinions

Hi xda community, just got my OP6 and installed OB2 pie on it; it has been great so far, been getting 5-6hours of SOT and lots of standby time on it, but just wondering if i could squeeze a little more out of it. Now im planning to unlock and install custom kernels on it. I've read the tutorials and scanned different kernels.
Its not my first time on unlocking and flashing stuff, I've been doing this since i had the sony p1, but it's been a while (Galaxy s7 days..) since I've done this, and need a refresher. so i was just wondering with the help from you guys.
1) is 5-6hours SOT normal for OP6 running on OB2pie on stock kernel? i know SOT is subjective, but I've seen other going for more than that, or have i just been spoiled from my previous device which had 4000mah batt.
2)What kernel would you suggest in terms of battery life and stability? (Doesn't need to be boosted or overclocked, leaning on flash kernel and franken kernel)
3) if i flash a custom kernel now and oneplus releases the public release of OOS pie. Will updating reflash my kernel back to stock? Do i need to reflash a custom kernel again?
Hoping to hear from you guys and thanks a lot!

When you unlock bootloader, it will wipe phone. Second, I use and i am very happy with flash kernel. For me as a lite user on op6 on beta pie 2 with flash kernel, I get some were between 3 to 5 days on a single charge with sot of 6 to 8 hrs. Too me, this is good battery life. when updating, it will put stock kernel back every time.
