Suddenly I started getting failed Safetynet .. Magisk Core Only or Magisk Hide both enabled but fails ... any clue ... i tried fresh install of Batstock Rom and new kernel version with Magisk, but no use ...
I know it has been a long ongoing issue but just wanted to check if anybody found a working solution on this combo

time keeping module shows wrong boot epoch time
Hi,
This issue was observed on V1.1.0, but stil exist in V1.2.2.
A sympthom of the problem can be seen in:
dreamlte:/ # cat /proc/stat
btime 1485100236
The kernel functions that suppose to return the boot epoch time (wall time since 1970), e.g. ktime_get_real_seconds, getboottime etc,
returns an erronouse value.
commit e1d7ba8 (time: Always make sure wall_to_monotonic isn't positive), which is included in kernel V4.3-rc1,
observe the same issue and proposed a fix, but still it is not working for the exynos platform.
Does anyone has noticed this, and maybe have an idea for a fix?
Thanks a lot,
Avri
Hey guys and girls
I'm back from holidays and should be able to answer the most questions from now on!
Just in case you want to have quicker support you should be thinking about registering yourself on our website, as there are most of the time other team members online and here on XDA it's just me supporting all of those threads.
BTW, there is already a test version available for AQG5 or higher roms, check it out here!
Have a nice day and see you in the forums

The kernel base of 1.2.2 is AQF7. Means it won't boot on AQG5. I am currently waiting for AQGB kernel source to update the kernel

About the kernel and if it is for gaming, this kernel is mainly very close to stock and not heavily modded. So if you didn't had any issues with stock kernel this one will be good for you as well!
As said waiting for AQGB kernel source code!

That only happens if you are NOT on AQG5, reason: camera libs need to be updated otherwise the camera will constantly loop your device (some seconds after successfully boot process)

No.
I work only with devices, which I have.
Very tempting to try a more recent TW 5.0.0 optimized Kernel since KTOONZES last TW Build is from February and I don't really need to have any OC / UV to begin with as well (sometimes less is more). And even more tempting when I read that it has great RAM Management and battery life (and that I'm flash addicted). Just sounds to good to skip - I think I'll flash it tomorrow to see for myself.
Whats the exact "latest" (as in Version Number) Samsung Kernel Source this is based on?

Thanks friend, I want to flash AOSP rom but i need a solid custom kernel for it. I used your kernel for the note 4 and it was excellent!!!!
Hey googy: Noticed a bug with my external sd-card. Don't know how the phone is formatting the sd-card, but even formatting several times, it won't get recognized. Default kernel is fine. Guess, it will get formatted as exFAT and maybe you (currently) don't have exFAT included? Am I right?
Thanks anyways for your time and all the things in the past. I really appreciate your work.
P.S.: Don't mind my signature. I am on 20B .
Hey welcome here. I used your kernel on sgs3
:good: cheers

Thanks for taking the time to try the kernel.
Exfat isn't included yet but is planned for next release

Excuse me guys, please re-download 1.0 version as I just corrected a little problem affecting some modules loading (mainly bluetooth ...)
Another kernel wow thank you!
Future come faux sound support?.
Would this work on a Lollipop based ROM at all? Or does it have to be MM?

Considering the sources are 20A which is MM, there's your answer
Trying it out but gives to much battery drain.
Will wait for a new release more optimized and with more features.
Keep the good work.

Sorry to hear that, but I am getting opposite results as my battery lasts noticeably longer with same usage.
Please check your init scripts or tweaks and consider checking after at least one charge cycle

I`m using Genisys 3.4 with superxe kernel,with no scripts and the only mods are greenify,powernap.
I just installed your kernel and wiped cache and dalvik.
But i`ll give it another try on your next update.
Thanks for bringing another kernel for our phones.
Actually @BySezerSimsek in Genisys Rom uses LS scripts. They are from L SPEED. I am using the same firmware.
I know, but I deleted them all

Kernel Update
Changelog IronKernel V1.0.2:
- Updated ramdisk to AQI8
- Updated linux to latest 4.4.89
- Enabled dex for all hdmi connectors, thanks to kbarni (please test if it works fine)
Android File Host did still not apply the device request for the N8, so I decided to give you two choices (till they are ready).
1. Like before, download via grifo development thread
2. As second choice via devdb from XDA
As soon as android file host is ready I'll delete the files from here and upload them there :good:
Wish you a nice week and see you soon again
Thanks ?
Great!!
Man I can't wait for one of you great Roms.
Anything baking?
Confirm dex is working with regular hdmi connector (without dex docking station). Thx!

Infos about a Rom:
Yes I am working on a rom for the N8, that's a fact
It will take quite a while until it is adapted with a new design for IronMan (all icons, banners, animations need to be redone). Also all mods need to be reworked on the N8 UI.
Plus last but not least I want to release the rom for S8/S8+ too so we also need to fix all camera related problems (due to the fact the n8 has an updated camera).
All this will take time but as said above, a rom is coming! :highfive:
So stoke that you're here Luca! Looking forward to your ROM.
boot loop on N8 N version running renovate
Same here, bootloop
Last night tried v1.0.2
And today v.1.0.4
And nothing, fortunately - bootloop on n8.
Thanks author and glad to see you here, can't wait your rom

WARNING :
This kernel is for Oneplus 5T (dumpling)
Code:
You will NOT void your warranty after flashing this kernel.
Be sure to make all necessary backups first before processing to installation.
I'am not responsible of any damage caused to your device or data lost after flashing this kernel.
Of course, these are only basic warnings ! but generally you'll not get any problem :)[/COLOR][/FONT]
Some reading..
Welcome to SimpleGX kernel ! a kernel that aims for simplicity, stability, better performance, smoothness and battery life over a pure stock kernel.
This kernel is designed for people who are (like me) bored to flash kernels which integrate tons of unneeded things.
Main goals of it is to stay MUCH closer to stock than every kernels shared here and almost not to be a “custom kernel” on its own. So beware, no exotic stuffs here !
No need for any third app or whatever to control this kernel. Just "flash-n-joy" ! this is how I always liked thing.
Keep in mind that this kernel has been designed for my daily use first.
As always, I'm enjoying sharing my contribution here on XDA for free, which taking me a lot of (my free) time to test before releasing. So, if you can offer me a little beer, it will be really appreciated!
This kernel must be only flashed over an official Oneplus 5T OxygenOS (OOS) ROM !
Feel free to include my kernel to your ROMs / threads but please don't forget to inform/ask first via PM and credit me properly in your original thread. It's always appreciated.
★ WHAT TO EXPECT ★ :

Slightly better battery life
Slightly better performance
Include only efficient (but definitely not experimental) tweaks
Stay as close as possible from pure stock source
★ FEATURES (up-to-date) ★ :
Base :
Always directly based from latest available "android_kernel_oneplus_msm8998" Android Nougat/Oreo/Pie source from Oneplus5T OxygenOS (for clean work)
Compiled with stock Google (4.9.x / aarch64-linux-android) toolchain (for best stability)
Featuring AnyKernel3 (for all ramdisk compatibility)
Stock Linux
Main :
Kernel logger disabled
Very few fixes/optimizations patches for stock interactive governor
Completely optimized stock 'cfq' I/O scheduler
All TCP congestion control modules activated with Westwood currently as default
mmc/core: disabled CRC check
Disabled CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
tcp_output: set initial TCP window size to 64K
fs: default to noatime
Decrease BCL low battery threshold to 5%
WireGuard support (thanks to @zx2c4)
Xbox controller (and other USB pads) support
Dash Charge support
Removed verify and forced encryption + patched SafetyNet flags to pass CTS
Disabled suspicious OnePlus services and logging
Some miscellaneous tweaks, fixes, patches and security patches
Various tweaks :
Full changes to be discovered directly in my Github source below
Features that will NEVER be included in this kernel :
adding any other governor/IO schedulers than those stock
root/busybox auto-installation
CPU/GPU overclocking/undervolting
KCAL
adreno idler
state_notifier
any upstream of Linux kernel
dual-boot
etc
★ PREREQUISITE ★ :
An unlocked Bootloader
An Android Nougat/Oreo/Pie firmware (based on OxygenOS)
A custom recovery (TWRP recommanded), to flash the kernel
Optional : to control some kernel tweaks, you can install Kernel Adiutor)
★ SOURCE (up-to-date) ★ :
SimpleGX (normal version)
SimpleGX (ALS version)
★ INSTALLATION PROCEDURE ★ :
Backup everything you need (internal & external)
Unlock your bootloader
Flash your favorite TWRP recovery
Reboot to TWRP
Wipe both cache & dalvik partitions
Flash your full usual ROM/firmware (optional if you did not flashed any other custom kernel)
Flash SimpleGX kernel
Flash root (Magisk recommended but should work with SuperSU also)
Reboot and enjoy !
★ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) ★ :
How can I update my SimpleGX kernel version ?
- Nougat: Just make a dirty flash over it. If there is a special thing to do, then it will be precised directly into the announce.
- Oreo/Pie: flash kernel and root right after (otherwise your device won't boot).
How can I go back to stock kernel ?
Just flash back your full usual rom/firmware back (flashing stock kernel is not enough since it does not brings stock modules back to the rom/firmware).
Is there a LineageOS (LOS) version of you kernel ?
No, and there won’t be any this time on OP5T.
Is your Oreo/Pie version compatible with custom ROM's (8.1.x) ?
No, only official OOS Oreo/Pie.
My battery is draining like hell, what's wrong ?
As @nathanchance perfectly said for his kernel: "The kernel doesn't drain any battery, use an app like BetterBatteryStats to figure out what app is screwing with your phone".
Also, generally, I remarked that wiping cache+dalvik between updates may drain a lot for the percentage left and the first cycle. Anyway, be sure to make at least two full cycles (from 100% to 0%) before judging battery life for any kernel.
How to recover excellent battery life ?

Fixed brightness problem which wasn't really going to 100% (but was stuck at 30% approx).
Removed backlight dimmer useless option
25.11.2017 : v1.0 released.
Initial release (check actual features)

Thanks will try it once the phone arrives. Love to see development starting
Thanks for this, I always prefer the near-stock experience with some much-needed tweaks. Flashed it on 4.7.2, boots fine, looks very smooth for now!
Keep up the good work!
Welcome to the party sir..! Look forward to your subtle and simple kernels builds..!
Welcome :highfive: i am happy to say that the most stable kernel was yours (op5) and great battery life thanx
Nice to see a new Kernel.
Thanks for your hard work!
Did you include any additional wake-up gestures?
Bug so far: Wifi disabled
Fixed
Not sure if I'm the only one or not, but it seems that I'm no longer able to adjust the brightness after installing your kernel. Other then that, everything else looks to be running pretty good.

Nope, sorry. I would like to stay as stock as possible, I prefer to let this kind of functions to real custom kernels

Strange, no problem of WiFi here, just tried to turn ON and connect to my home wifi and connected with success, internet test = OK :good:
Do you directly comes from another kernel ? (I would say blu_spark since we are only 2 for now on OP5T). I recommand you to revert back to stock kernel before flashing mine, and then re-test.

No problem also, just tried to slide from min to max and all is fine (progressive), tried with automatic brightness ON and OFF. Same as above, can you try to flash stock kernel/firmware back and then flash my kernel ? :highfive:

Yes, restored stock kernel and installed yours after an reboot fixed the bug
Tried to flash this kernel over oos and freedom room and keep getting error 1. What am I doing wrong?

Probably a bad download, check MD5 to be sure that it corresponds before flashing :good:

Your kernel was installed within 20 minutes of pulling my op5t out of the box, unlocking, and installing TWRP. I'll go ahead and do another full wipe/data format, see how that goes.

I tried it twice man and I'm flashing it on twrp like I would have on the op5 but only on the op5t. I even downloaded it twice.
Up and running smoothly. Great work!
Edit: No Wifi issues, but I have noticed that the brightness is the same from 25-100% and does not change.

WARNING :
This kernel is for Google Pixel 3/XL (blueline/crosshatch)
Code:
You will NOT void your warranty after flashing this kernel.
Be sure to make all necessary backups first before processing to installation.
I'am not responsible of any damage caused to your device or data lost after flashing this kernel.
Of course, these are only basic warnings ! but generally you'll not get any problem :)[/COLOR][/FONT]
Some reading..
Welcome to SimpleGX kernel ! a kernel that aims for simplicity, stability, better performance, smoothness and battery life over a pure stock kernel.
This kernel is designed for people who are (like me) bored to flash kernels which integrate tons of unneeded things.
Main goals of it, is to stay MUCH closer to stock than every kernels shared here and almost not to be a “custom kernel” on its own. So beware, no exotic stuffs here !
No need for any third app or whatever to control this kernel. Just "flash-n-joy" ! this is how I always liked thing.
Keep in mind that this kernel has been designed for my daily use first.
As always, I'm enjoying sharing my contribution here on XDA for free, which taking me a lot of (my free) time to test before releasing. So, if you can offer me a little beer, it will be really appreciated!
This kernel must be only flashed over an official Google Pixel 3/XL firmware !
★ WHAT TO EXPECT ★ :
(over a pure stock kernel) :
Slightly better battery life
Slightly better performance
Include only efficient (but definitely not experimental) tweaks
Stay as close as possible from pure stock source
★ FEATURES (up-to-date) ★ :
Base :
Always directly based from latest available "android-msm-crosshatch-4.9-pie-qpr2" Android source from Google (for clean work)
Compiled with stock Google (4.9.x / CLANG) toolchain with stock LTO/CFI options (for best stability and security)
Featuring AnyKernel3 (for all ramdisk compatibility)
Stock Linux
Main :
Completely optimized stock 'cfq' I/O scheduler
All TCP congestion control modules activated with Westwood currently as default
mmc/core: disabled CRC check
tcp_output: set initial TCP window size to 64K
fs: default to noatime
WireGuard support (thanks to @zx2c4)
Removed verify and forced encryption + patched SafetyNet flags to pass CTS
Some miscellaneous tweaks, fixes, and security patches
Various tweaks :
Full changes to be discovered directly in my Github source below
Features that will NEVER be included in this kernel :
adding any other governor/IO schedulers than those stock
root/busybox auto-installation
CPU/GPU overclocking/undervolting
KCAL
adreno idler
state_notifier
any upstream of Linux kernel
dual-boot
etc
★ PREREQUISITE ★ :
An unlocked Bootloader
An Android Pie firmware
Optional : to control some kernel options, you can install Kernel Adiutor)
★ INSTALLATION PROCEDURE ★ :METHOD 1 : testing kernel without real flashing
Backup everything you need (internal & external)
Unlock your bootloader (if not already done)
adb reboot bootloader
Extract 'Image.lz4-dtb' from kernel ZIP (SimpleGX_KERNEL_Pixel3-XXX_vX.X.zip)
fastboot boot Image.lz4-dtb
Enjoy ! (but beware.. kernel will be lost after any single reboot!)
METHOD 2 : flashing kernel classically
Backup everything you need (internal & external)
Unlock your bootloader (if not already done)
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-blueline.img (or better)
ADB sideload SimpleGX_KERNEL_Pixel3-XXX_vX.X.zip
OPTIONAL (if you want to root the kernel) : ADB sideload Magisk-v18.1.zip (or better)
Enjoy ! (kernel will stay after any single reboot)
★ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) ★ :
How can I update my SimpleGX kernel version ?
- Just make a dirty flash over it. If there is a special thing to do, then it will be precised directly into the announce.
How can I go back to stock kernel ?
Just flash back your full usual firmware back.
Is there a LineageOS (LOS) version of you kernel ?
No, and there won’t be any.
My battery is draining like hell, what's wrong ?
As @nathanchance perfectly said for his kernel: "The kernel doesn't drain any battery, use an app like BetterBatteryStats to figure out what app is screwing with your phone".
Also, generally, I remarked that wiping cache+dalvik between updates may drain a lot for the percentage left and the first cycle. Anyway, be sure to make at least two full cycles (from 100% to 0%) before judging battery life for any kernel.
How to recover excellent battery life ?

Would work l-speed settings and improve batter/performance more? Also how much battery (SOT) would you say I would gain?

It depends all on yourself - what kind of apps you are using, how you use your phone and so on..
But like a rough estimate. Like 1 hour. 30 mins or 1min

Like @xFirefly93 explained perfectly, everyone has different usage.
Personally with stock kernel I was getting a SOT like ~3h30, now with my kernel I gained 1 hour more.
I'm planning to release soon v1.1 which have very slightly better battery (that I currently experiment) :good:

Ok thanks. But one more thing. Would this work with LKT because it didn't work with proton kernel

That is a magisk module that's like an analoge of BlackenedMod tweaks

Not aware of this module, anyway, if there is nothing to add from kernel side, then it should work properly. If not, then it's from rom/firmware/magisk side (which of course I cannot act).
I've tested it and can confirm it works. Good work ?

I recommend to flash my kernel using my first post instructions, nothing else (althought you can still give a try via EXKM) :good:
You will need to always flash Magisk right after flashing kernel to get root back.
