Customs Kernel WiFi Fix - OnePlus 5T Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
I've been in and out of using custom ROMs/kernels for a while now, and finally found a rom I like nearly as much as OOS, so think I'm gonna stick with it a while. It runs well, but battery drains much faster than Oxygen so I want to try a custom kernel, but I know from the last time I tried an aosp based rom it's gonna break the WiFi, though as I understand it there is a fix/workaround?
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Or do any of the kernels provide this fix OOTB? I want to know the fix before flashing just to save hassle, I'm using Resurrection Remix Pie v7.0.2, haven't picked which kernel I want yet (open to suggestions) ?

Bluspark if you want to stay close to stock. It's HMP. If you'd like to try out EAS go for Weeb kernel. Both provide the same battery life as stock for my usage and both are great and have great support IMO.

Just check the kernel threads whats. I doubt there is any kernel which would break wifi...

There are a couple of implementations of WiFi module actually. Some kernels have multiple versions like Weeb, and you need to select the right one for your ROM to make WiFi work.

[Q] Stability and Performance focused ROM for the 2013 Nexus 7

Hi, I am looking for a ROM that is stable and faster than stock. What ROM would be the best for this? I haven't really tried ROMs since I last put Cyanogenmod on my CDMA HTC Hero, so I don't have the best idea of what's out there and what works. I also searched "performance ROM" just to make sure this hadn't been asked recently.
I'm running TWRP and the latest SuperSU, if that matters.

There won't be a faster Rom. What you can try is flash a kernel that supports overclocking. Although, imho, you won't be blown away by the increased performance, it's all marginal.
Stock Rom is already very fast. Other Roms will also be very fast. It's usually a matter of options that the custom Roms offer. You can tweak more. But will they have a noticeable performance improvement, I think not. YMMV obviously

Ah, thank you. I had such a massive performance jump from 1.6 to 2.2 and then 2.2 to 2.3 Cyanogenmod on my Hero that I thought I might get something similar out of a custom ROM again.

Simply make a Nandroid of your current Rom and experiment like crazy
If you find a custom Rom that blows you away: keep using it. If you don't find any advantages or worse: restore Nandroid :good:
Custom ROM makes only sense if you want special functions / features of a specific ROM.
Many special features can also be activated in stock ROM by apps like Xposed, GMD apps etc.
So most probably a custom ROM is unnecessary. Just look for a good kernel (Franco, Elementalx, Faux...) if you want added performance, battery life or filesystem support.

[Q]Could someone please develop an optimized and updated CM12.1 kernel?

So I've tried all the ROMs, I've tried Stock (When I first got the phone) I then tried CM12.1, then FlexOS, then back to CM, then BlissPop, then back to CM, then Cloudy's ROM, then Back to c-... you get the idea.
I looked in to trying to compile my own kernel, because frankly there isn't an updated d855 CM12.1 kernel to be seen anywhere that has features to make CM the least bit smooth and I decided that with my coursework becoming a bigger part of my life that I would simply have no time to put in the work (Or the knowledge).
So what I'm asking is simple, can someone please compile a custom kernel for cm12.1? I love this ROM, the lack of customization features is a feature in itself for me considering I love AOSP, CM is perfect for my usage but I just need a custom kernel so that it can be complimented and optimized for the G3, thanks.

Recommended daily driver ROM

Haven't ran any after market ROMS on the Nexus 5x yet but used to be a CM fan prior to the "shut down". Although I read the devs went to Lineage, just haven't done a whole lot of research on it just yet. By looking through the forums, it looks like my woes are the same as many others. I.e. poor battery life, declining performance, low sound volume ect.
Anyone have a recommendation on a decent ROM and/or MODs to start out with? Any advice would be greatly appreciated so I can get a head start on researching.
My personal suggestion to you would be to stick with the stock rom but use a custom kernel. Often when people are talking about how bad their performance is on their phone it is because their kernel isn't configured correctly.

I will agree with this. I was running the stock ROM with a kernel for a long time, and it was great. I recently wiped everything and switched to Pure Nexus, but that's cuz I wanted to try F2FS.
My daily driver is PixelRom. Stable enough and looks refreshing among all custom roms that I have tried before. Its stock based, easy install all in one with bootloader and vendor, kernel franco for a bit better battery life. Swansong sound mod…

I use stock + greenify + lucky patcher + Xposed. Seems to work ok for me so far batterywise. It's my personal opinion more mods more problems so I try to keep it simple.

By using Xposed, I'm assuming you're running MM?

Pure Z Rom here 7.1.2 stock based with franco kernel
I don't find any custom rom for daily use without problem

What ROM are you using and why?

I bought this phone and it's really great, I have nothing to complain about it....it's really too perfect
but....I was used to flash all the day, try stuff ecc....things are getting boring, my addiction is healing
I'm a stock guy because I feel stock rom+kernel performance more reliable and consistent, but maybe your experience could inspire me, and maybe others to try different things
Show your stuff!!
Thank you
For AOSP, best setup worked for me was ResurrectionRemix + mini gapps + tabp0le kernel coming with the rom, however in the last builds i got some performance issues are reverted back to sense based ROM. many people say Dirty Unicorns + Nebula kernel is a killer setup. but i didn't really like it because it didn't have pixel launcher and i don't know how to setup it tbh.
the best sense based ROM setup for me is Stock ROM + ElementalX + PnP mod by ivicask on balanced. i am using LeeDroid now + Stock kernel and sometimes i experience some lag not sure why but after a reboot it works perfectly. will try it with custom kernel.
trying ROMs on HTC 10 is good because most if not all of them work perfectly with phone and all of the issues you may face can be solved. just try many roms and see what's perfect for you.
here a sheet i made with all custom roms available for the 10
here
ICE and Leedroid to me feel more stable than stock ROMs on other phones. The 10 is extremely stable
Viper10
It's the most popular HTC ROM on XDA for a reason.
You can stay as close to stock as you want, tons of customization options if you want that instead, timely updates, and a strong community on the thread to help with any issues you may have.

Leedroid and ICE do not use stock kernel, they're including cleanSlate kernel with their builds (I think for mod reasons), so performance/stability issues should not be ROM faults IMO....Thank you anyway, I was thinking about trying ICE, it was my daily driver on M8, I'm just not sure about the kernel

yes.....viper10.....you know, I always had this feeling.....the more mods you include, more the rom will be potentially unstable....and viper has damn tons of mods
The curious thing about viper ROM is that everytime I try it, it's damn smooth. don't know why. but again, it doesn't feel stable....I will try it anyway
thank you anyone
I use lineage os, I like frequent updates, I like the fact that's it's a WIP. It is good and gets better by the week. I like that is very up to date.

the lag i get is in notification panel and i am pretty sure it's not a kernel thing because other than that the ROM is so smooth with 5hours SOT battery. i never tried ICE maybe i'll give it a try this week.
I use lineage, I only switched off stock because they were not releasing a security patch update every month, nor upgrading to the most recent version of android. I like keeping everything updated and its frustrating that you have to wait for them to do it rather than just getting it from google.
I used to be a flashing guy, the htc 10 maked me stop flashing by now, I gonna wait for U11 ports, I think stock rom is stable and wonderful.

Totally agree. Thankfully HTC 10 has massive support in terms of AOSP ROMS. I recommend you to try crDroid. It's so clean and simple with perfect performance and battery life
Resurrection remix with the custom kernel that comes with the ROM. I've tried mostly everything as my DD but I always come back to AOSP. I've tried lineage but it started to stutter.
Edit- I'm back on lineage and it's amazing.

What Rom is most stable of 10.x builds?

Hi guys i used to be a active here on xda but since i got my one plus i kind of left all this behind. Im now looking to bring some life back to my 5t but i want something as stable as possible as it is a work device. Thanks!
This is a hard question because most people didn't try all custom roms. I suggest you check each Android 10 rom status here, if it's mentioned "stable", it should be good enough for daily use.
Any rom which doesn't use h2os firmware.

Buggy
i tried pixel experience and OOS 10 beta , pixel experience is a daily driver not sure about oos10beta tho cause i just got it today but it seems stable
Mainly I'd avoid custom roms cause I'll miss OOS features,no matter how good the custom rom is
I've tried Pixel experience only.
The battery life is more or less the same during normal use (if you play game, the battery will empty soon).
