How to flash to another custom kernel. - OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers

I'm using a custom kernel on my rooted device and want to try out another. Do I need to flash back to the stock kernel before flashing to the other kernel or I can just flash it on top of my custom kernel?
If I have to flash back to stock kernel is there a place I could download the stock kernel?
Using EXKM and rom is 10.5.8.IN11AA
Sorry for the noob question I am completely new to this.

Although you can get by prolly by flashing another, I've always gone by flashing stock, and THEN the new kernel, and what I recommend. Believe others would do. As far as the stock kernel, I wanna say there's a thread somewhere that has them posted, but you may have to search.

I did try to search but I read a lot of people try to extract it from the stock rom or something like that. I'm not sure how to do that though.
If somebody could post a link on the stock kernel file that would be great

Go here, download the 10.5.8 2023 BA variant for your device, confirm hash. Go to settings, syatem updates, cog wheel, local upgrade, select package. I THINK it'll let you flash it like an upgrade, but don't quote me, I am not to familiar with the device yet, or oneplus in general. Just flash magisk to other boot slot after if it says your device will no longer be rooted stuff, you know. The typical.
I'ma go to bed, but if that doesn't work, you can see about opening the .zip up, extract the payload and search google for a method that'll extract the kernel for you. Best of luck.
Oh, and in case it wasn't reiterated, back up persist partition too. Just in case, always. In case it wasn't obvious.

Is there a specific reason that I would flash to BA not AA?
So I would lose root and have to reinstall magisk is that correct?
PS I also have nolimit rom installed.

My apologies, I thought I saw you said IN11BA, not IN11AA. Do the AA. Caught me right before I fell asleep. But putting phone on charger. Good night.

And magisk.... Open magisk up and flash to other slot after you do the system update. Tada. Recommended to disable modules first.

If mine is the Chinese version which was flashed to global rom, will it be stuck in bootloop again if I update it from OTA again?
It was stuck the first time round and I had to wipe cache and setting.

It SHOULDN'T but I also provide no guarantee, as not specifically certain. But I do highly doubt it would be stuck in bootloop again, it's just the first time around.

Ok I'll give it shot. Really appreciate your help!
Btw do you have any kernel you recommend for battery life.Using ElementalX at the moment but don't see much difference between stock.

New User - Problem with Update after rooting

I'm sorry for having to post here, I'm a new XDA member and I've just started using my tablet and found out I can't post in the dev section. I'm not sure how else to get help and a previous boyfriend told me the xda-developers community was a great place so I thought I would try here.
I have the Nexus 7 (2013 edition) and I used WUG's method of rooting - everything went perfectly, but now I'm getting a notification that there is an update (an OTA update - I think that's what they are called?) and it doesn't apply. I'm not sure if I should have, but I did the bootloader unlock and installed a new recovery (TWRP - I think that's how it's spelled?. sorry again)...
Anyway.... At this point my tablet is working great, but I constantly see this notification for an update and I'm not sure what to do.. It says "touch to install" and I've done that but it just boots into my new recovery. If anybody has access to WUG in the dev forum, could you please ask him what I should do?
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you have the WiFi only version or the LTE version? Also, under your settings -> about phone, what build number are you currently on? Since you have rooted and installed a custom recovery, OTA updates will not install correctly. You have a couple of options in this regards, and I or someone will go over them once we figure out what version you are running.

Thanks for that:
Here's what you can do to install the update.
1) go to this thread and download either the odexed or deodexed version.
2) Reboot to recovery
3) Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache
4) Flash the .zip file you just downloaded
5) Reboot your updated tablet.

Oh railed, thankyou so much - I was not sure if I would be able to get any more updates. If I do that, will it delete everything on my tablet? It did that when I did the change to an unlocked bootloader, and I had to reload everything.

All your data will be preserved. Only Wipe the Cache/Dalvik Cache, not the Data. Before you install go to Wipe -> Advance -> Check only Cache and Dalvik Cache.
Typically when an update comes out, someone will post a flashable update within a couple of hours so we can install them as well. Hope it helps.
Edit: As always before flashing anything, make a backup, by rebooting into recovery and selecting Backup (i check all the boxes).

Also.... If I just load the latest cyanogenmod on it, will that take care of it. I have the same old phone from my previous boyfriend and it's running cyanogenmod.. It will update the OS whenever a new version comes out and I don't lose the data like I did with the unlock bootloader thing?

I believe so, Cyanogenmod usually merges the updates pretty quickly into the code and you won't get any update notifications from Google directly any more. There are only nightly releases so far for this device if you feel like going that route.

Do you think I should go the cyanogenmod route?
I've really liked cyanogenmod on the phone on barnes&noble device they are on, but I've been scared to update this tablet since we've broken up and I don't have anybody that can help.

That's completely up to you and what you prefer... I like the stock android experience so far, but there are many options out there for custom ROMs besides CM. Take a look here and here and figure out if a ROM in there has something you want... the great thing about this is if you don't like it, flash something else until you find exactly what you like... that's how I plan to do it, once the ROMs get more stable with the 4.3 updates.

I use deodexed, as do a lot of people who like to customize. There's not a lot of difference between the two. Here is an article that explains it pretty well: Odexed vs Deodexed

[Q] I'm stuck in CWM recovery mode

Hello,
Yesterday an update came up on my screen, I clicked "Install Now"
The phone restarted into CWM.
I am rooted ofcourse, and I'm really scared for my phone,
Is there anything to be done?
Which phone do you have?
Your phone is rooted, do you have a stock or custom ROM?
You should provide a little more information so people can help you.

The only thing you probably have to worry about is the data on your device since it is possible you have to wipe it. No worries on bricked device.

No. But it looks like you flashed a borked file. Maybe the CM you installed has a wrong MD5, or you might have flashed a CM that's for a different G2. Either way, you can either push a new ROM zip into your phone to flash, or KDZ back to stock like the guy above me said. Good luck!
And don't worry, your phone is completely fine. But this should be a lesson to always perform a backup before ANY ROM flashing.

What I'd like to know is how did you get CWM in the first place? I've tried for a couple of hours with ROM Manager and the D802 is not supported even though it claims it is. All I get is the red triangle on top of the green android bot and what looks like 2.x CWM. Not sure since I'm new. But it only has about 5 options. No MOUNT, NO ADVANCED, Looks unsuitable for flashing a ROM. I saw this version the very first time I flashed a phone and I soft bricked the phone. It was a Nexus 4. I recovered but I'm not taking any chances and messing with that again. The only way I recovered was using Wugfresh. I need something like Wugfresh for my D802 where I can take those risk. I'm angry because I can't flash anything now. I've got 327 apps to get installed. No one wants to do that manually. It is really inconceivable that this phone which is still arguably the best in the world after 6 months is not supported the way it should be with recovery. Any help in getting CWM working would be greatly appreciated.

That won't work because you can't even get to the menus to install the zip. That the whole problem. You can't really do anything because it basically hangs up with the red triangle. With the number of people having this problem and how great a phone this is you'd figure this problem would not even exist. Here's a screen shot of the problem everybody is having.

I'm new so don't know much. My understanding is you can't flash anything without being in recovery, right? Look at busted25's post. I'm not risking anything that is not concrete. Much as I like to tinker around I accomplish nothing if I end up with a brick. On my Nexus I could risk everything and because I had Wugfresh. No such thing. I'm going to look at he LG software suite and see if can backup the phone enough to restore it should i soft brick or something

What?! Are you sure about that? If true that is really foul. What, do they think we are Apple fans or something? If we didn't want recovery we would have bought Apple. I hope that is not true.

Well the exploit we were using to install recovery/Loki was patched in kk so currently if you want recovery it's the same procedure for all devices downgrade to 4.2(first firmware available) root install recovery and depending on your device I can link you a modified kk that uses the aboot from 4.2 plus modified kk kernel to boot to kk while retaining root/recovery

I don't know if I have the skills to pull that off. I could wind up like busted25 and all the others who bricked. I think my best option might be to sell it very cheap quickly and order a new one and never upgrade. I'll take the hit. Phone is less than a week old. One thing I'm not understanding though is I'm seeing only kitkat custom roms for this phone out there. That's why I thought it was ok to upgrade. I didn't see any 4.2.2. Everybody who flashed the custom roms must have been fairly or very skilled.One thing that made me upset is ROM Manager advertised recovery for this phone that was bogus. I even paid for the touch version and got nothing and no email reply

How to install Cyanogenmod?

Very confused about the process of installing Cyangenmod on my phone. How do I install the unlocked firmware?
You may just want to wait if you are asking these questions. CM is still in alpha stages anyways, not everything is working for it to be a daily driver imo.
CM is definitely outta alpha stages

That is because you cannot do it that way which is why you bootlooped. The CM threads speak of this numerous times. You need to RUU the US developer, then FLASH a Sprint variant ROM (like Bad Boys), then wipe and install CM which will work. The other option is to just use the developer edition with SuperCID/MID and then CM will work without flashing back to Sprint ROM's. I would go with the first option as you will gain better LTE as you wont be on Sprint's "global" connections.

Such a shame this thread went to PM. It seems like it would have been good basic information for experienced flashers whom are new to the HTC world. I came from the Galaxy S5 (SM-900R7 nTelos variant), and had been testing out LineageOS 14.1 on it (as an update to CM13, which I was building myself). This thread would have been helpful to help flash the HTC10 version. Still learning it. Quite different from the Samsungs, for sure!
would someone mind either posting in the thread or PM me back with a link or guide, step by step how to install Cyanogenmod. I have rooted a few Samsung phones before, but once I have them rooted and running stable I usually leave them alone...point being I have not rooted a phone in two years....
I'll be getting my HTC 10 Sprint phone tomorrow, so I would love a full step by step how to root, install twrp and finally how to install the ROM...BTW I used to run a ROM called liquid smooth....does that ROM still exists?
Is Cyanogenmod the best most stable ROM for the HTC 10 Sprint?
Im going to help the community as much as i can lol i'm going to start a separate thread on how to install Lineage sometime this weekend when i have time ..mind you this is my first time starting one so bare with me.
I can't seem to find the instructional thread..? I've been rooting & flashing HTC phones since the HTC 4G LTE, but this thing is a different beast entirely. I've unlocked via HTC Dev, installed unofficial TWRP 3.0.3-9, flashed the custom SU, & installed Viper (did all that from stock N). Viper is definitely super solid, but I've always preferred the CM/AOSP platform. I've wiped the internal like I've done a thousand times & flashed Lineage + gapps (arm64). the phone boots & gets to the lineage boot animation & sits there indefinitely. I let it sit for almost an hour, & obviously it wasn't going to boot.
What am I missing, guys? Any & all help will be greatly appreciated.
any ideas?

They dont have any roms built for the CDMA 10, notice there are no CM or AOSP roms in the SPrint htc 10 rom section. It probably didn't boot completely cause of a kernel mismatch.
there are people in the LOS thread saying they're on Sprint running it. I just can't follow their methods, which is why I was hoping for a tut.

The solution has been discovered by @The Fer-Shiz-Nizzle!
Flash the file in this post. You must be s-off. Works perfectly.

That's all you need. Must be S-off. Rename to 2PS6IMG.zip and place on root of ext SDcard. Reboot to Download mode and accept the prompt to flash the file. Reboot back to recovery, make the proper wipes and flash ROM & Gapps. Reboot and enjoy AOSP/LOS!

Correct. You must be S-Off to do this. Put the .zip file, named 2PS6IMG.zip, on the root of your ext sd card, reboot to bootloader and flash it. After successfully flashing that file, you'll be able to run AOSP without issue. Like you said, download and flash. Enjoy! ?

I am seeing two different instruction steps in the posts and just want to be sure i got this right. Do we flash the sd card zip before or after flashing an AOSP rom and gapps? Also, is there any particular aosp rom that works best for this method?
thank you!

Magisk ROM for the J3 Emerge SM-J327P ( Boost Mobile, Sprint, Sprint XAS, and Virgin

**No longer being maintained**
IF YOU HAVE NOT READ AND FOLLOWED THIS POST COMPLETELY BEFORE FLASHING MY ROMS, I DO NOT WANT TO SEE ANY COMPLAINTS!!!
For your SuperSU ROMs go to @Sands207 thread :

Magisk ROMs AFH
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=232990
BOOST MOBILE VARIANT ONLY, AT THE MOMENT.
If anyone wants a magisk build, take the ARG2 stock update and go through intial setup. When you do take the update, you WILL NOT, I repeat you WILL NOT be able to downgrade to the ARF2,ARC1 AQJ3,APL1, AQF4 , and AQB6 versions or you will risk bricking your device.
From now on, ALWAYS, I repeat, ALWAYS, keep Gapps( arm, 6.0, stock) on hand!!!
There is no need to check any of the checkboxes when using the aroma as you should have already wiped dalvik,system,data, and cache prior to flashing the ROM. I have also integrated the no verity ashyx zip into my ROM, so unless data cant be mounted then before flashing rom, there is NO reason to flash the no verity ashyx zip manually. After flashing rom, wipe cache , dalvik and then reboot.
If you like what I do, feel free to donate here:

This is so we can help you easier.
DSP Manager is now working again, so anyone who was having problems with it fc'ing, just re-download from my afh, as i will be replacing the zip with the one that doesnt fc.
If you're having problems with Google dialer, make sure it is set as the default dialer.
**ROM has now been updated with Good Lock as systemUI**

I finally pulled us out of alpha and the first beta is ready. She's a little rough around the edges but overall it's pretty nice. I'll update the OP in a few. Once we can get the stock from stable I'll build a device tree and take a crack at compiling and building lineage os and probably others too, hang in there
@jlrockafella and @SonderTech beta will be live soon here https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0Bz99NuhE3XwmcHUzcmhpZXJ4Sms i included stock boot.img so those who would like to use it instead of supersu can do so. This will be less complicated @SonderTech i included your boot animation too. i have slow upload so hang tight and thank you so much for all the contributions you've made!! ??I'll update the op with simple directions for us in a bit but it's close to stable now
New build up!! ROM is now stable

I think that's what I meant. The zip is what I would flash over in twrp and then I reboot and wala. Now does this ROM include root, supersu and all that?

Thanks so much you've been more than helpful. I do have a final question, though. I don't have boost/sprint but my model is indeed a j327p. It's a virgin mobile phone, I know that might affect it just curious if this was made for all variants.

You have twrp on your device now correct? I have successfully built one for boost. Tonight I'm working on the sprint version for a friend and if you like I could make one for Virgin if firmware is available, im doing this in my extra time so it make take me a few days but I'll certainly try if you want me to.
I do have twrp. I'm glad I asked before bricking my phone haha. I'll check up on it next week. I can't thank you enough, these are not bad little phones. I'm baffled there aren't more people working on projects like this for these samsungs.

And I would very much like that ROM on my virgin mobile device. I would owe you big. I'm not fond of the touchwiz interface and many of the other features that come on the stock firmware.

I built this today for you https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0Bz99NuhE3XwmajBNY0IyZ2FFWkk I understand you are not fond of touchwiz and neither am I, what i suggest is to install xposed to use gravity box and use the firefds kit along side it to make the ROM however you want. Your ROM is in testing phase so I dont want to tear things apart and replace them until we know whats good and not good. Thank you for your support. Enjoy and follow along as we improve on this base ROM. I used Virgin Firmware so make a backup please first and let me know what you think. It's uploading now so please wait an hour or so for it to finish

It is for the time being, pulling touchwiz caused ALOT of confusion for folks im working on using a different one but setup is affected without it. Honestly i wish i could use evie as the base without borking the rom

Moto X Pure help asap

I posted the same thread a week ago and got no help. My moto x has a problem that whatever rom i flash it just stays open for a few minutes then restarts so it's unusable. Please any suggestion is needed as this is my daily driver

What do you mean by it just stays open. Do you mean it never boots? Like a bootloop? If so, search 7.0 ROMs bootloop, you'll find the solution, tons of threads on the help and q&a here. But if you don't mean what I just explained then could you clarify?
Sorry for not being clear, i dont think it is bootloop. It boots into the rom no issues and i can use it normally and doesn't restart till a few minutes no matter what rom i flash.

If I were you I would flash back to stock and make sure you you don't have a hardware problem, If nothing else it's a chance to start over. I haven't gone to custom roms for these reasons, mine is my daily driver to and I can't afford to get caught without it.

No worries. Yeah I don't know what the issue could be, could be a ROM issue, it's weird though, but like the poster above me, it could be hardware failure and flashing stock would be a good way to find out.
I would love to go back to stock but how? All the tutorials are very hard for me to follow can you guide me to an easy one or tell me how?

I agree that they are a little hard to follow, I looked at them myself and it looks like the quickest way would be to go back to 6.0 and upgrade back to 7. But someone else could correct me on that.
For future reference, it's best to always twrp backup your stock rom before doing any kind of major changes especially custom roms. That way you can always fall back to original if something goes wrong.

I would go back to stock 6.0, if he hasn't upgraded to 7.0, I'll do some digging, find good guides, and post them here in a bit @Philo0o!

I think I might also do a twrp backup of my 7.0 and make it public, but it will take me a couple of days before I can factory reset. There doesn't seem to be any stock 7.0 backups around on xda.

Alright if you wanna go the custom ROM route, don't update to stock 7.0, not many custom ROMs work with it's new firmware. I'll get you a guide to go back to stock 6.0 then!
Edit: Alright @Philo0o, here's a good page with all the firmware links for your phone, and the commands to flash the firmware are there for you. Let me know if you have any questions about that.
Also, when your ROMs aren't working, what are you doing to try again? what I mean is you could try a full data format in twrp. Not just a wipe of data, system, etc.. A full format isn't quite like going back to stock, but it may help if there are leftovers somewhere causing issues if that makes sense.
so if you wanna try a full format, backup your internal storage to a computer, or to an sd card, and then format, and then you will have a clean slate, move what you need back over to your phone and voila!
Ill look through that tutorial, and whenever i flash a rom i do a full a wipe
