Hi all,
some of you know me from the Samsung devices area, where I provide my kernels already for more than two years to Galaxy S3 and Note 10.1 users for all sort of platforms (Samsung, Cyanogenmod, Omnirom etc.)
Last year I got an OnePlus One and decided to port my kernels also to this device.
Please note:
I am not heading to have as many features as possible implemented, this is not my design goal. If you are more into that, move on to other, good existing kernels. If you are searching for a good mix of improvements and new functions while not sacrificing stability, you are welcome here (see below the history section for more info).
Compatibility
Important: This kernel is only meant to be compatible with official OnePlus OOS and nothing else.
So when the kernel does not run on custom rom XYZ, do not even bother me with it or ask hundred times in the thread for compatibility.
I could not care less about it !!
Important notes
When using new anykernel concept Boeffla-Kernel: Flash stock kernel of rom first !
Make sure you flash the correct kernel version, depending on whether you really use Oxygen OS or a different OS !!!
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.
Saying that, the Boeffla-Sound app in Play Store is not designed to work on the OPO, neither was it developed by me, hence it will never work on the OPO ever. Boeffla-Config is the way to go here !!!
Support
First read the FAQ section on the Homepage !!!
Click here to learn about all possible kernel settings in the config app.
Click here to learn about using the config app.
I will refuse to give support if you do any undervolting and experience freezes or hot reboots.
I will also not provide any support if you do not use Boeffla-Config app to tweak the kernel, other 3rd party tweaking apps are known (and intended) to cause issues.
Otherwise, you can get in touch with me via the support e-mail address: [email protected]
Please provide kernel version, rom version, a detailed issue description and ideally supporting screenshots or log files.
Change logs
(you can also access them directly in Boeffla-Config V2 by pressing menu and selecting "change log...")

Google gcc 4.8 toolchain used for best stability
Always using latest Oxygen OS Initramfs
Always based on latest Oxygen OS kernel sources (https://github.com/OnePlusOSS/android_kernel_oneplus_one)
Note: I do NOT upstream the kernel to higher Linux kernel versions anymore as this usually has zero benefit but likely introduces new issues + is a waste of effort in the end

History and design targets
Basically I created my first Boeffla-Kernel in 2012 as there was no kernel for the Samsung Galaxy S3 around that had exactly the mix of functionalities that I wanted. I wanted to have full flexibility in undervolting and charge rates for instance, but did not like the sharpness and/or brightness tweaks many kernels have implemented as per default.
Hence, I began to create my own kernel after a while, adding all the features I like. This is the result of my work, which in the end I decided to share with you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. Also it does not aim to have the broadest feature set available everywhere.
It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
These design targets are also valid for the OnePlus kernel here!!!
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
things I do personally not need
things I do not like
things that are in any way dangerous
anything which is highly experimental
f2fs - it is known to cause various issues and compatibility problems
a CAF based kernel
anykernel method to use the ramdisk of the installed rom
anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
So do not even ask for it if it falls into the listed categories. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
And: I do not really care about benchmark numbers, they say almost nothing as long as something is not completely wrong. Important for me is the feel-good factor.
I am also not interested in gaming at all, so never expect a gamer kernel. It will just not happen...
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: Flash the correct kernel depending on whether you are using Oxygen OS or another rom !!!
Configuration of the kernel
To tweak and configure the kernel, manually load and install the app "Boeffla-Config V2" from the downloads section on www.boeffla.de.
You need at least version 2.1.77 or higher for the OnePlus One Boeffla Kernels.
Donation
If you like my work, feel free to donate: Donation-Link
If you donate at least 2,49 EUR (to be in line with the donation app prices on Google Play store), you will receive a personal donation code which unlocks some nice little comfort functions in Boeffla-Config V2 on top.

Credits to developers
Of course, I had never been able to create all that by my own. So I want to give credits to the really good developers around, that have given me all the inspiration and from which I cherry picked lots of the implemented functionalities:
* ZaneZam
* Yank555
* Hardcore
* Chainfire
* AndreiLux
* Netarchy
* Gokhanmoral
* Simone201
* Mialwe
* Entropy512
* Faux
* Harunjo
* FranciscoFranco
* Ak
... I just hope I did not forget someone. If so, please let me know and I will add you of course.
Thanks to all of you for your great work !!!

*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in your custom recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.
Cheers and enjoy

*** You want my support? Then stick to my rules ***
Guys, I am receiving more and more completely useless support requests in different threads. Useless because people provide nothing to be able to help, not even the minimal possible information they could give.
Hence, I will now remind anyone again on the support guide lines stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/support
Also you need to ensure you follow the installation guide lines incl. trouble-shooting stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/installation-how-to
And to cut a long story short: If you do not at least provide what I request in the support guide lines, I will IGNORE YOUR REQUESTS IN FUTURE.
Straight and simple. I have enough of people wasting my time just because they are too lazy to write details.
Period.
Also as a reminder:
you use xposed? -> no support, everything is your own issue
you use a custom rom and not the official stock or CM one? -> good luck, you are on your own
you undervolt or overclock? -> have fun, but without my support
Sorry, this might sound harsh (and it is meant to sound harsh), but you cannot imagine about how crappy support requests can be. Stating something does not work is just not enough.
Please consider that!!!
Andi
Been waiting for the first known custom kernel for Oxygen os and im glad that it's Boeffla!
Will test in a while, but im sure that it's great! Thanks for all your hard work!
Only for this kernel i will install Oxygen OS un my OPO jejeje

Hm. Well, to be honest, for me Oxygen OS is not yet complete enough for a real daily driver candidate. Too many things missing for my taste.
But well, yes - try it
Andi
Hell yeah!
Very cool, thank you :good:
I knew it was only a matter of time. Thanks for uploading!
Thanks..
And the boss is..........Andi :good:

Very strange, after two test (benchmarks) with OC, CPU temp is 50. Itz very low comparing to CM heat with similar conditions
Let's run this and see how it goes.
Thanks for your hard work!
I am going to try this also. Are you rocking OxygenOS add your daily driver? Because I do and it's nice beside that its problem with the system update wakelock.
No, it is not my daily driver. Too many things still missing for me.
For the Google play services wake lock, there is a solution. Calkulin modded the service so it doesn't create the wake lock anymore.
Andi
Yeah I know the solution. But I prefer the other which is starting the SystemUpdate Service from Google play services. This also prevents the wakelock.

You made it! Awesome. I have no time so I'm glad to see someone else working on an Oxygen kernel. I personally prefer Oxygen over CM, although it's not quite finished. Again, great to see more kernel options.

The kernel postex here in this post is still in testing phase.I request people to flash it TEMPORARILY and provide feedbacks.
Instructions on flashing temporarily are given in 1st post.
Edit:
For some unknown reasons, the 14. Ghz frequency is not being showed.No need to try this.
Reserved
Using Various Features
1.)Governers & IO-Schedulers-Use an app,I recommend using No Frills CPU Control for this .Its simplicity is its power.
2.)Sound Controls 3.6 -Go to play store and get faux sound controls app to use this feature.
3.)KCAL Colour Control-Use the app from here

This is a great kernel. Now I can truly say my zenphone feels like a flagship, just like my previous G4, or the likes of Samsung or Apple.
I didn't expect much since I only spend $150 on it, bought it just because my G4 went for a swim and drown literally, lost it in the ocean. Anyhow I'm off topic.
I applied this kernel yesterday and since than is super responsive. Not only that, but before applying this kernel my phone was feeling kinda hot to the touch, stock and even with CM. Even when it was in my pocket felt a little warm. A totally different story now, it runs cool most of the time and only warms up a little when on Facebook or on a more demanding game, whenever I pick it up even after 10 min, it feels cool to the touch. I run CM 13 with Nemesis kernel and is great.
Who says that you have to pay $600 to get a good phone experience?
I can't thank you enough!!!

2.0 is great, performance feels the same as in 1.0, but I did notice some battery improvements. Been using my phone for over 12 hours now, for calls mostly, email and some FB, I'm only down to 35% . On 1.0 yesterday had to charge it after around 10 hours use.
Kudos to the developer, great job!!

So after about a day or so with v2 on z00t I have noticed a increase in battery life and performance. Phone is much snappier and most lag is not present. I play hungry shark world from time to time and have noticed a better gaming experience. Looking forward to more development in the future.

i can confirm that PixelMaster Camera on Z00T (Selfie) stop working with V 3.0.. i flashed on the 2.0 build but i'm waiting a 4.0 or only a 3.0 bugfix.. camera on this model in very important for the flash led of the front 13mpx cam and on the market i can't find another one with that function but also fast charging introduced with 3.0 is awesome.. i've tested two days ago between my 551ML and Selfie both at 40% of battery life and i'm being shocked seeing that in 10 minutes the Selfie with fast was at 51% when 551ML quick-intel-charge was only at 46%... please fix the cam bug quickly as you can.. for my use there's no other to add to this kernel!

Disabled CRC-Check for upto 30% faster I/O .
Support for FRandom RNG Driver (upto 50x faster than the default one).
Compiled with UberTC 4.9.4 Optimized for 64-BIT (Uber uses the latest of every component as well as increases the Battery-Life too).
Fixed the default value of SELinux to Permissive (allows certain apps such as Viper4Android to function properly).
Support for Touch-Boost and CPU-Boost.
Support for Vibration Intensity Control (available in Misc. TAB of Kernel Adiutor).
Lowest Possible CPU-Usage
(a lot of tweaks have been implemented system-wide).
Support for various Wake-Up Gestures including D2W.
Disabled Debug-Info (should reduce the size of the kernel making it lighter).
Great Work bro . I expect these changelogs

Go to my kernel source and see commits in overclock branch.
And for God's sake follow this before pointting finger at anyone.

thanks very much for ur answer and for the setup u made for other kernels to come in the future hope u would keep this updated
no possibility to open the band 4 ( aws ) lte from the kernel?
from where I change the frequency?

If you can elaborate what this is,and provide links to a kernel which has implemented these features,I would try to get those working on this kernel.

Addon was originally only available on Venom HUB but i decided to release it for everyone to use.Here is copy paste of description and changelogs from the HUB.I will update thread as i update it on HUB.
Also big thanks to @hamdir for testing my performance profile on various games, he will also post later hes review, pictures and comparisons to stock.
This addon is designed to save some extra battery, and reduce heat.Magic is done in 2 files:
1:Thermal-engine is tweaked in order to provide much better sustained performance and cooler phone, without big impact on performance.
2np file is another key component, its HTCs CPU/GPU/EMMC/MODEM and many more control engine.Here many tweaks where done, but gonna quickly list some of the important ones:
-Per app control, automatically suspends 2 BIG cores, and runs on 2 low power ones, it also limits the GPU speed to lowest.This will do only for some most commonly used apps, like Sense Prism, Nova launcher, Apex, other HTC apps, various chat programs(hangouts, facebook, messanger, whatsap etc), YouTube and some more.. as those apps dont require a lot power.
-Screen off is set to 2 low power cores for nice standby times
-Power saver is tweaked to actually save some power and not just lower screen brightness
-Extreme powersaver is also tweaked down to save even more power
-Input boost frequencies are also lowered (CPU ramps up moment you touch screen)
-And alot of other minor tweakups..
Also its recommended not to change anything CPU/GPU related in any other apps, like EX and just let this files do the job for you.
If for some reason you dont like this mod or have any problems with it, installer includes revert to stock option

Performance Profile
I've worked with @ivicask on optimizing gaming performance for the 1.80 base via the performance profile for this mod, in this post i will explain the gaming problem on stock HTC 10 and how this mod/performance profile solves it
by default HTC aggressively cripples the Snapdragon 820, not for the sake of thermals but for the sake of extending battery life, what happens is the following:
Stock CPU behavior on HTC ten (up to 1.80 base):
Starting with 33c battery temp CPU tasks will gradually migrate out of the big cluster, around 38c one of the two big Kryo cores (which enjoy higher clocks and bigger hardware cache) will be completely disabled, HTC smartly hides it in task migration rather than physically shutting down a big core
This means in CPU intensives games like Dead Effect 2 you will notice a sharp drop in performance/smoothness once the fourth core is killed, the game will drop from the 60fps range to 30fps, this behavior is noticeable in many games, if you are on complete stock you can only game at the full s820 speed if you are starting from a cool idle battery temp like 30c but then in about 5 minutes things will go downhill, considering that the HTC 10 idle state in average use is around 35c anyway you can see how most people probably start gaming on the 10 within the crippled state
Previously the only way to fix was to flash EX kernel with CPU migration hacked and already set by default to 60% limit, meaning EX kernel will refuse to let HTC 10 migrate tasks out of the fourth core under 40%, this is a good solution but you are forced to use EX kernel and not the stock kernel plus wait for the kernel source so that EX is updated whenever an OTA is rolled out, this mod will allow you to fix gaming on HTC 10 without touching the kernel plus it's thermally safe as its not a hack and will still gradually slow down the 10 to cool down, but it does so in a sane way
The performance profile in this mod was thoughtfully optimized by profiling the CPU usage in Dead Effect 2 (currently one of the heaviest games on the playstore) from 30c up to 45c, giving you enough time to actually enjoy this game at its full speed up to 30 minutes
The following tests will show you how the HTC 10 behaves in gaming when warm vs the performance profile, profiled using @ivicask tools and game benched in short sessions, the exact same level played from the same starting point to the same end at the same length of time, this level called "return to space gardens" is one of the heaviest sections in Dead Effect 2, at the end of this test you can see how performance drops to the ground because it meets a very dense and tough section in the game.
Stock kernel / PNP / thermals, Dead Effect 2 at 39c
The fourth big core is completely killed, GPU goes to 510mhz, small cluster drops to 1.3ghz, big cluster drops to 1.5ghz
As you can see on pure stock 1.80 base by 39c the games loses one of the big s820 cores and performance drops from 45fps range in this level to 30fps (which happens way too fast) also as seen in the yellow graph how performance stability is terrible, after 40c it will get even worse
here are the results from the same level using the performance profile of this mod
Performance Profile, Dead Effect 2 at 34c to 38c
full tasks are still running on all cores, GPU at 624mhz, small cluster still at 1.5ghz, big cluster drops to 1.5ghz
Performance Profile, Dead Effect 2 at 39c to 41c
both big cores drops to 80% task migration, GPU drops to 560mhz, small cluster still at 1.5ghz, big cluster still at 1.5ghz
Performance Profile, Dead Effect 2 at 42c to 43c
one big core sticks to 80% task migration the other big core drops further to 60%, GPU drops to 510mhz, small cluster still at 1.5ghz, big cluster still at 1.5ghz
Once the device gets warmer after 43c CPU migration will drop to 60% on both big cores with further reduction in GPU speed etc, but at this stage the HTC 10 will no longer heat up as fast and as you can see up to this point it was maintaining almost the same performance in this game; while keeping fairly high GPU clocks too; this is a much more subtle well thought performance degradation than HTC's stock blind brute crippling of the s820 which happens way too fast on low temps
This profile is so good actually HTC should probably copy it and imitate how it deals with default CPU migration, otherwise why are we buying an s820?

@ivicask
does it work differently from butterfly v11?
or say does it conflict with butterflyv11 if you have already loaded that profile and flash this zip?
thanks for another tweak made possible for Perfume devices

Completely different, it uses HTCs native engines to control everything, u can basically flash this on stock un-rooted phone
And doesn't require custom kernel, it should work immediately as new bases come out etc..

Half of this mod runs in PnP, if you disable it, your making this mod almost pointless.
Also, as i stated, this mod runs best standalone, its best not to use any other mods, or apps which change anything CPU /GPU related.
You can still flash EX kernel for example, i just dont recommend messing with any CPU/GPU related settings in it.

cool so this would conflict as butterflyv11 disables the pnp
would try this and see :highfive:
hey
great to see you released this for all on xda!
I have a question. since you wrote on the ex kernel thread that pnp config file is encrypted how come you can edit it?
or can you englighten me how i can just disable all Input and touch boosts from pnpmgr while keeping pnpmgr?
i think that would be the best for my script but i wasn´t able to do so.
i found no other way to stop the touchboost other than disabling pnpmgr completely.
maybe we can integrate my interactive values with your mod? if you are okay with this of course!
thanks

I cant give you much details on how i edit them, theres reason HTC encrypted them, if we spill it out, HTC would change encryption and everything very soon i suspect, so hope you understand why i wont share that part.
I can disable input boost for you, but im still not sure how your mod works along with PnP, as PnP constantly changes values dynamically, if you chmod values, than PnP constantly tries to change freqs and fails(may cause some problems).
What i can also do, is incorporate your changes directly into my mod, and make "ghostpeper" profile which would work directly in PnP, and people can choose and test which one works better for them and their daily usage.
EDIT:You could simple disable input boost by echoing 0(maybe chmod remove write permission after that so it cant change it) to
/sys/power/pnpmgr/touch_boost
/sys/power/pnpmgr/long_duration_touch_boost

yep i totally understand this. it would be however great if you could disable Input boost for me directly in the pnp binary.
i already tried to edit the files you mentioned in sys/power/pnpmgr. when i did this I got heavy lags. really heavy. i think something is conflicting there.
yeah the chmod trick worked before base 1.80. i would simply chmod the min freqs for big and Little Cluster and touchboost from pnpmgr disappeared magically. this trick is no longer working with the new base. that´s why i was forced to disable pnpmgr.
if you want to you can incorporate the Butterfly values for the interactive governor in your mod. I think Butterfly works far better on our 10, that´s why i just updated Butterfly for base 1.80.
does pnpmgr also edit the values for the interactive gov dynamically?
if you could make a pnpmgr config where touch/Input boost, Setting min/max freqs is disabled i´d be quite happy.

you may also just edit my script and comment out with a # or delete the line "stop pnpmgr" then the pnpmgr conflicting part will at least be removed.

PnP controls everything u mentioned, all your butterfly/ghost scripts has, and about 10x times even more
I checked your script, you just echo to disable input boost, try chmod it after you disable it with denial permission so it cant be changed..
Should work, if not i can mode PnP for you, but above would be better solution for you..
Maybe others might ask too, sometimes I'm using it too for a systemless mod: do you plan to add it in as a systemless mod, if it is possible?

well, just related to OTAs, but that might be unimportant as you can flash back to original files, or restore no-RW mounted system image backups.
Or am i lagging behind, it's working to have a RW mounted system and do OTA updates? I don't follow that part much, my bad

Its so much easier just to restore original image, i think wont do it systemless, as they are key system parts, dont want some weird things to happen..

OK.
I'm testing balanced option at the moment.
Also, i know I'm off topic, but in the end what's the recipe: what does and what doesn't affect androidPay. (I'm lagging behind again in this topic, just avoid modifying system partition in my kernel as it seemed to affect it at that time... as i don't use androidPay I didn't follow what exactly makes it unworking).

PnP controls everything u mentioned, all your butterfly/ghost scripts has, and about 10x times even more
I checked your script, you just echo to disable input boost, try chmod it after you disable it with denial permission so it cant be changed..
Should work, if not i can mode PnP for you, but above would be better solution for you..

It checks alot of things, and its constantly updated, its simple must be done for security reasons..
Okay so I tried it with 444 permissions and it still lags. Should I try 000?
Would be great if you could make me a file with touchboost disabled and frequency changing disabled.

No Gravity Kernel 2.0 + 4.0 App Trailer
Why is it called NoGravity kernel?
Hey, NoGravity Kernel dev coming from the Pocophone F1. Goal of this kernel is to provide of course solid performance when needed while keeping a solid battery life throughout the day, but main NGK objective is to make every device #SmoothAF.
The Kernel will boot using stock (Mi 8) GPU frequencies that correspond to the Balance Profile. Overclocked frequencies can be selected in my app. Other profiles for battery, performance and gaming can also 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). My app offers some features that usually cant be found in other kernel tweaking apps. You can find them lower in the thread.)

This kernel should work on any ROM/Ports! Since I love OnePlus and I'm myself a OnePlus 2 user, I will do my best to fully support OOS ports.
Reported to work on: OnePlus 6 Holi Edition, OnePlus 7 OB8 & OB8 Quince, Quarantine Edition. OxygenOS devs do not support custom kernels so if you face any issues with NGK don't post in their groups, post here instead.
-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
-CPUs since Snapdragon 845 can't be overclocked from kernel this is why it is removed
-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.

NGK Thermal Locking Mecanism prevents ROMs from overriding a thermal selection (Mainly MIUI) (when NGK Thermals are ON only, when they're OFF, ROM will have it's default behavior)
1.3.1 Build:
Kernel 1.3.1:
Rebased Techpack audio driver entirely to fix sound on some ROMs
1.3 Build: Welcome to Mi 8!

Notes:
Max GPU frequency of 835MHz is only reachable manually as I don't consider it fully stable. On the other side, 820MHz Overclock is stable and is used in my profiles.
I wanted to use relatively longer dynamic schedtune boost duration compared to input boosts so made them separate in terms of length.
I would recommend turning off No Gravity app toast notifications from Magisk Manager app.

Updated AnyKernel3 changes (No Need to flash magisk after updating!)
Always upstreamed to latest! (4.9.210)
And many more under the hood changes...
Notes:
Thermal Suspend API : This is a small API I’ve written in the kernel directly (to make sure no background services are running for it) that unsets NGK thermals when screen turns off and enables them back when screen is turned back on. (This fixes some issues on some specific ROMs where screen wouldn’t turn on or phone would random reboot while device sleeps or is charging)
There is now a camera fix version to fix camera on ROMs with Q-Blobs like MIUI Q, so if your camera isn't working flash this one.
Kernel 1.1 Pie Edition:
NoGravity Kernel v1.1 now working on Pie ROMs
Using v1.0 Base
Notes:
This kernel uses v1.0 base so will work on both Android Pie and Q ROMs/Ports/MIUI
From now on releases will be separate in 2 builds: [9] and [10]. People on Android 10 should use [10] builds since it is rebased to Full Q CAF sources even tho [9] build would still work.
1.1 Build: Welcome to No Gravity Kernel App for Pocophone!

Using 2048kb read ahead
Fixed ZEN I/O Scheduler initialisation
Picked port of RCU's taken from 4.14
Updated SDFAT to EXFAT
Removed a CPU boosting driver that could conflict with another
Battery oriented tweaks
Tried to fix random reboots and other issues some people were getting
Always upstreamed to latest! (4.9.206)
And many more under the hood changes...
Notes:
Profiles also have a QSTile for fast switching
If you didn’t already know it was only placebo/performance wouldn’t change, but don’t worry there are other ways to make performance better
If you want charging throttling, you can set it back on here by setting the value to N instead of Y: sys/modules//sys/module/smb_lib/parameters/skip_thermal
MIUI ROM/Port variants may have some issues but I didn't have much testers on those so please send logs if you have issues

Useful Stuffs
Useful stuffs
Clean flashing a kernel:
1. Boot into recovery
2. Wipe dalvik/art cache, cache, system and vendor(if recovery have this option)
3. Reboot into recovery (only needed on some recoveries)
4. Flash latest ROM zip
(Optional) Flash other zips like GApps, DFE, etc depending on ROM and your preference
5. Flash latest Magisk zip
6. Reboot into system (yes boot with stock kernel first)
7. Reboot into recovery
8. Flash latest NGK Kernel zip
9. Reboot and enjoy
Not to be confused with a ROM clean flash!
Do not wipe data or internal storage!
Taking logs
Screen Freezes:
-Connect phone to PC
-Run following commands in terminal:
[*]adb shell
[*]dmesg
Random Reboots:
-When the random reboot occurs press the TWRP button combo to got straight into TWRP
-Send the pstore folder as a .zip file located in /sys/fs/
Any runtime kernel/app related crashes that doesnt make the device reboot or freeze:
-Use Matlog app on play store
-Start recording before the issue
-Stop recording after the issue
-Send the .zip file created
Kernel + App Update
Good news !
NGK 1.3 and 3.3 app are up with some good additions! Mi 8 is now supported. Make sure you read the changelog...
Thanks to everyone who donated until now, that's really appreciated. I don't want to force anyone to do so, but we are almost there as you can see here: Crowdfunding
thanks again
Back to work

Thanks glad you like it ?
Looking forward to testing this bad boy
there is no sound on last miroom beta rom with this kernel
Thanks for this man, the only thing I'm jealous of the poco community is the amount of roms and kernels they get haha.
I'll try this when I get home!
Me too, no sound on Revolution rom 20.1.31

There are P blobs and Q blobs versions, try both, one should work. (this is not for Android P and Android Q versions, it's for blobs, blobs are a different thing, google if you want to get technical).
If not working with any version then it's indeed a bug.
Sorry but I don't understand it. Can you give more detailed instructions?
Where I can find P blobs and Q blobs versions?

Here.
Read the first posts more thoroughly next time before flashing stuff.
Another One...Thanks to our humble and awesome DEV!!!!
Boots and seems to work, camera does too on latest los 17 build.
Unfortunately there's no audio at all.
Let me know if I can provide logs, help, or test.
Thanks!
I try P blobs and Q blobs versions. But it still has no sound
Okay, so a looooot of people asked for a telegram group..
Here it is:
NoGravity Development Telegram Group

Notes:
-I wont be posting test builds there
-This is for discussion related to my projects
-I won't be able to handle the spam and don't tag me for nothing, I have a life too so I won't be reading everything. I will read everything that is here on XDA only. If you tag me there I will most probably read it but dont expect me to be super active there.
See yall there
Noted for sound, I will have a look. Yall can try sending logs

*** NOTE THAT 3.16 NA OR 4.13 Red Magic 5G SPECIFIC ROMS SHOULD BE USED WITH THIS KERNEL! THE COMBINED ROM (WITH RM5S) HAS UPDATED KERNEL CODE THAT IS NOT FULLY COMPATIBLE AND NUBIA HAS NOT UPDATED THEIR SOURCE CODE ***
*** Please click Thanks (Thumbs up icon) on my post here if you like my kernel and rate the thread 5 stars, then just use it and enjoy - if you want to send me a beer or two feel free - you don't have to use PayPal - Revolut and Amazon.com (USA) gift cards avoid fees. I like to hear from happy users I hope you are glad that you have the fastest phone in the world currently. The active cooling in this device is utilized to the extreme with MOD kernel, meanwhile your battery usage will be much improved at the same time. How? Well, that's all in the source code, free for all to fork it on GitHub and modify to your liking. Just don't forget to credit me and the many great devs that made the improvements possible... without them, there would be no MOD kernel. This is just a hobby of mine and I like to produce a nice product that all can enjoy. I'm also quite friendly and although I may tell you no I won't add that feature (such as network hacking tools), I won't hold anything against you for asking. I have not been compensated other than by some generous folks on my Telegram channel, so this whole project is basically self funded. Red Magic will not support it, unfortunately, but you can if you feel the improvements are worth it. I believe they are, but I come from a biased point of view as the sole developer for RM5G ***

Easy root method: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nu...nner-tutorial-unlock-bootloader-t4131585/amp/ although I suggest still using Magisk 20.4 for root.
Note: if you've already rooted and want to upgrade, people have had success saving the kernel as boot.img and TWRP as recovery.img in SmartPack, vbmeta skip as vbmeta.img and placing into the ROM update.zip using MT Manager (a root browser) and saving the updated file. Then do a Settings / System Update / click the 3 dots / local update and select your modified file. In fact I upgraded from 3.13 to 3.16 NA ROM without losing anything this way. Now for normal installation:
Custom kernels require root and Magisk to be installed. This is due to the signature not being signed by Red Magic (the company) itself. Following the above method you will still pass SafetyNet and most apps will work without trouble. If you have a specific app that detects root, well, Magisk Hide the app from Magisk Manager and see if that fixes it. You should also Hide Magisk Manager from various forms of detection (under Settings). Last case is to move the installation of Magisk under a random directory (which I have not had to do and all my banking apps still work), only if the root detection methods used by your app providers are more picky.
MOD KERNEL 1.4 STABLE:
RELEASE NOTES:
Block mode I/O has been changed to Multi-Queue from Single-Queue so your default scheduler is now MQ-deadline (credits to PappaSmurf, excellent kernel dev). You can choose between mq-deadline, kyber, and none in a kernel manager under I/O scheduler. From my benching with Androbench, it doesn't make much difference which one you use. Some have parameters you can tweak. None literally means no scheduler which is fine on an SSD, and has no overhead if you want to select it in a kernel manager. I always recommend SmartPack. To get settings to stick you Toggle "Apply on Boot" and it will go to what you've selected after 5-10 seconds on the next boot.
All debugging has been turned off completely on BBRv2 - thanks to PappaSmurf (I missed a few spots), and debug can't be turned back on from the userspace now. BBRv2 is selected as the default TCP algorithm which users have explained as a "no-lag" algorithm while gaming. It's just generally a fast algorithm all around. For me it works great, but you can still choose from many different algorithms in a kernel manager if you want to.
In SmartPack / Misc / TCP Congestion Algorithm, you have many choices: reno / bbr / bbr2 / bic / cdg / cubic / dctcp / westwood / highspeed / hybla / htcp / vegas / veno / scalable / lp / yeah / illinois. A SmartPack script is included below you can add in SmartPack to show the true TCP algorithm as it will always show Reno (a bug also shared by FK kernel manager). Below it's called Check_TCP.sh just go to SmartPack / Script Manager / Import / Check_TCP.sh. Afterwards, click Execute to see the active algorithm. If you set it on boot, this is the algorithm that will run, despite what the field says in Misc.
Battery is running very well on normal usage I'm getting around 7.5% active screen on drain over 7 hours and <0.7% screen off drain over 13 hours at 90hz screen setting. This is with actively using the phone for multiple "normal" purposes, reading emails, browsing websites with Chrome, reading news, streaming videos, etc. various shopping (Amazon/eBay) and tracking, Reddit feeds and live video, and other random "daily" tasks, up to 10 apps open at a time. Gaming of course will drain more, as will 144hz. I also have dark mode enabled in Settings. To get idle drain down I disabled 3 additional wakelocks that were causing high screen off drain, and so far I haven't seen an issue with blocking them. I also removed wakelocks that no longer exist since the Boeffla WL Blocker default list was created (it was quite old) so it now should be relevant for this device, with no interaction on the users part to disable anything via a kernel manager. Still, in SmartPack you will see a Wakelocks menu in case you install an app that causes idle drain to rise, this can be used to find and block wakelocks causing the problems. It can sort by wakeups and also by time. As it states though, you should be very careful what you disable. There can be unintended consequences and most wakelocks are not well documented as to what they actually control.
Dynamic Stune Boost is entirely removed from the kernel code now, as I didn't see any benefit from using it with this kernel.
Don't forget Dynamic Fsync is hidden under Misc in SmartPack which if you turn on will speed up your SQLite speeds. AnTuTu will penalize you for this, ignore it, your phone will be faster - but I leave it off by default. Androbench will show the true memory benefit. It is significant if an app does a lot of operations on databases. Journaling for the database is held in memory until the screen is off, then it is written. Although there is a chance of a data loss or corruption with this on if the device were to crash, it is safer than just turning off fsync. If you have any unstable apps, just leave it off - better to be safe. On a solid system though, you may notice better performance.
Also remember under SmartPack / GPU there is AdrenoBoost - it is set to low. You can alter to medium or high to get faster transfer between GPU frequencies, although it has worked great for me the way I use the phone. For you another setting may suit you better. Recall RedMagic OS only allows several frequencies which I spaced out as well as possible at 305mhz, 400mhz, 525mhz, 670mhz, 800mhz, and either 900 or 940mhz depending on the version you installed.
Overall I'm very satisfied with this kernel build and don't plan on adding or subtracting anything from it for the time being. It does what it should do, gives solid performance, and good battery life. My last score on AnTuTu setup with defaults 12GB/256GB was 682K which currently is still the top performing phone out there - running at 940mhz GPU. Not all phones can handle 940mhz so use 900mhz if yours cannot. If there are enough requests for an intermediate build (say 925mhz) I can add one later off the same code base. Also note in releases there are "gaming" builds that don't keep track of CPU times at each frequency, which was a request by users to remove any potential lag while gaming. I run the non gaming version, useful if you want to tweak battery usage, but nonetheless, both versions are there for you to use.
I'm on Telegram t.me/NubiaRedMagic5G_Mods as long as I have the phone. Which will be quite a while if Red Magic / Nubia decides to fix N41 5G in the USA.
Also note that all the features of this kernel (besides ones specifically added by me) are the creation of other developers whose contributions are all notated in the kernel source code. Some of the developers that have contributions here or helped me in some fashion: Resurrect88, DD3Boh, PappaSmurf, kdrag0n, Ayrton990, Flar2, Lord Boeffla, plus many more across the globe. Without them, I wouldn't be making any kernels! And I'm sure there are many other devs I've forgotten to mention, I thank all you guys for your help and support.

PRIOR RELEASES BELOW:
8th Release:
MOD KERNEL 1.35-BBRv2 STABLE:
RELEASE NOTES:
This is an intermediate release - I realized that the prior release was draining far more battery than it should, and I found the source was debug related code in BBRv2 from Google. So this is the updated kernel that gives you battery life like before this TCP algorithm was added.
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_TIMES=y has also been added so you can see in a kernel manager how much time is spent in each mhz block for each set of processors. This can be useful if you set in a kernel manager (like SmartPack) a minimum CPU mhz to see how much time is actually spent at each level.
The code base also has Dynamic Stune Boost, but I haven't had time to optimize it for the device, so it's just on default settings. So there are 2 versions of this 1.35-bbr2 release. At some point it will be enabled as part of a regular release (some 17 commits squashed together into 1, Stune Assist was causing issues so I turned it off). The main idea of that set of code additions is to run the device at lower frequencies, saving battery, while still achieving the same performance level to the user of the phone. If you want to try different options for it in SmartPack or FK Kernel Manager you can.

7th Release:
MOD KERNEL 1.3-BBRv2 STABLE:
RELEASE NOTES:
Added the 31+ commits for BBRv2 from Google. Squashed the commits down to 6 by author from Google (for easy code maintenance). It's said to be the best TCP (internet congestion) algorithm so this sets it by default. You can still select from the others added in 1.3, as mentioned only EX Kernel manager properly shows them. But SmartPack if you choose the one you want under Misc, then click Apply on Boot, it actually will load the TCP algo you selected. It's just a visual defect. I also made a script for SmartPack uploaded to show you the TCP algo that's selected in my repo you can install so you can verify for yourself. Give it 10 seconds (default on boot setting) before you check.

6th Release:
MOD KERNEL 1.3 STABLE
RELEASE NOTES:
All this release adds is TCP congestion algorithms. The only kernel manager which correctly shows the algo set correctly is EX Kernel Manager. Using SmartPack or FK Kernel Manager will tell you that you're always on Reno, when in fact, you aren't. I'm not quite sure if this is bug related to 865 kernels as a fellow dev had the same experience (on an Op8 Pro). Now the default is set to BBR. Why? No reason specifically, although it is one of the better algorithms for internet usage. You can easily change in any kernel manager and set on boot which one you'd like to use (see above RELEASE NOTES if using SmartPack). But this gives you plenty of options:
BBR, BIC, CDG, CUBIC, DCTCP, WESTWOOD, HSTCP, HYBLA, HTCP, VEGAS, RENO, VENO, SCALABLE, LP, YEAH, ILLINOIS
You can Google the benefits of each and pick what you like. Or just leave it alone. The prime idea of MOD kernel is that you don't need to adjust anything it just works optimally without any intervention. Read the release notes for prior features that have been added. There are many just not summarized in a single place at the moment. All the optimization has been done for Red Magic OS.

5th Release:
MOD KERNEL 1.25BETA
RELEASE NOTES:
This release is mostly about battery savings. I'm averaging around 6.5% active drain on normal tasks with this version (90hz setting), and around 0.5% screen off drain. A big improvement over the stock kernel. So I ended up with about 13 hours SOT + 24 hours screen off on 1 charge! See the picture, I stopped at 11% left. Now I didn't say anything about gaming. If you want to game and have power saving benefits, don't enable any of the built in boosting modes in the game launcher - the Red Magic OS will override everything. Let the kernel do the work for you. And if you're seeing any graphics lag, go into SmartPack kernel manager (free) and go under GPU, Adreno Boost is enabled on low, you can set it to medium or high. That will increase the speed at which the GPU throttles up and down.
1) Switch to the Energy Model for CPUs: Several subsystems (thermal and/or the task scheduler for example) can leverage information about the energy consumed by CPUs to make smarter decisions. This config option enables the framework from which subsystems can access the energy models.
2) Added CPUMASKS for the Little, Big, and Prime cores from Sultan Alsawaf Sultan: SultanXDA, prime added by Danny Lin: kdrag0n.
3) Added kernel control of the minimum frequencies for the little and big clusters by Danny Lin kdrag0n. They are set to run at their minimum running frequencies when idle 691mhz (little) and 710mhz (big) which results in nice power savings when web browsing or just under low load in general. Prime cluster min is not set as it makes the CPU scheduler function poorly.
4) Added AdrenoBoost by Aaron Segaert: Flar2, with all its changes squashed into 1 commit. Defaults to low setting. As mentioned before, you can change in SmartPack, and set on boot if you need a higher value than low: https://github.com/SmartPack/SmartPack-Kernel-Manager/releases
5) Uploaded the various GPU OC files to the repo, It still will just build off the default one, but they are here to be complete. 940mhz version again is posted, Building direct from the repo will give you 900mhz max GPU.

4th Release:
MOD KERNEL 1.2 BETA
RELEASE NOTES: (Note a 940mhz GPU clock edition is available, if you want to try it, a few of us have had good results on it. Likely the max an 865 GPU can run. You'll sacrifice the power savings, however):
1) Enable Power-efficient workqueues by default, add a toggle that can turn this off via a kernel manager (under CPU in SmartPack). Enabling this makes the per-cpu workqueues which were observed to contribute significantly to power consumption unbound, leading to measurably lower power usage at the cost of small performance overhead. Have also added many other power saving features to the defconfig. The phone is a beast, power savings is a good thing to implement.
2) Update the LZ4 decompressor algorithm with a much faster variant for the ZRAM swap, now version 1.8.3-9 credits Gao Xiang [email protected] and many others (check commits). Speed improvement below (should help on 8GB devices):
Compressor name Compress. Decompress. Compr. size Ratio Filename
lz4hc 1.7.3 -9 12 MB/s 653 MB/s 42203253 42.20 enwik8
lz4hc 1.8.3 -9 11 MB/s 965 MB/s 42203094 42.20 enwik8
3) Default scheduler is set to SQ deadline. Should see minimal improvements in speed until I get a MQ variant working. On the task list ahead.

940mhz GPU release here, it's still 1.2BETA, just with the max clock a few of us have been able to use. That doesn't mean your device can for sure handle it, but give it a try if you'd like! Note the power savings will likely not be there vs the other release at 900mhz:

3rd Release:
1.15BETA: https://github.com/mrslezak/NX659J_Q_kernel/releases/tag/1.15BETA
This is a HEAVILY updated release of the MOD kernel 1.10BETA - I realized the phone's software will allow 6 frequency clocks, although 1 did not have a regulator defined (now patched). NOW I VERY HIGHLY suggest installing SmartPack Kernel manager. It will give you insights into the kernel and how it's performing and it's free. It also will let you adjust added options now in the kernel. Just root your phone and flash from TWRP. If you haven't already installed Magisk, then install that too. There's a guide I posted on XDA about that. Use the experimental method there is no reason to unlock your bootloader. https://forum.xda-developers.com/nu...how-to-unlock-bootloader-redmagic-5g-t4081743
RELEASE NOTES:
1) Bugfix: there was 1 missing 800mhz GPU frequency regulator clock on the prior version. This has been set to TURBO, 1 level under the 900mhz regulator of TURBO_L1.
2) Boeffla WakeLock blocker (v1.10 + tweaks) has been added to reduce battery drain when the phone is not being used, using the latest version and all patches. A default block list is included. You can access in SmartPack Kernel Manager under the new menu that will appear "Wakelocks" - especially investigate if your phone has high idle drain, you can experiment with blocking other wakelocks (which don't allow your phone to sleep). Or you can leave as is. I get just under 1% drain (screen off) and the phone sleeps quite often with this version. Take a look at the screen shot! That's just normal phone usage, not gaming.
3) All debug entries (except those required) have been stripped completely out of the kernel. This results in less wasteful debug information being generated.
4) The default algorithm for ZRAM has been changed from LZO (high compression, but slow) to LZ4 (slightly less compression, but fast). LZ4 algo was added. It still defaults to 4GB.
5) Dynamic Fsync has been added to the kernel as well. This patch allows journal entries to be written only when the screen is off. I.e. they are cached and written afterwards. This increases database performance. It is disabled by default so in SmartPack Kernel manager, if you'd like to turn it on, go under Misc, select Dynamic Fysnc, and select apply on boot. There is always a risk of data loss when delaying writes, although I've personally never have had issues - it only happens if the phone crashes, and mine has never crashed on this kernel. This won't normally increase your benchmark scores (except AndroBench), it increases SQLite database access speed. Up to you to use or not, works fine on my device.
6) Here are the updated frequencies (note there is 1 more). Will have to wait for AOSP before I can add back more. Note the 670MHz is likely the 865+ max frequency per the release notes today on the device (which I assumed by the source code anyhow pre-announcement): 900MHz / 800MHz / 670MHz / 525MHz / 400MHz / 305MHz
AS ALWAYS, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!

Initial Release:
https://github.com/mrslezak/NX659J_Q_kernel/releases/tag/1.0.BETA
Second release - gets over the "reset to 490mhz" bug caused by the system software, at the expense of reducing frequencies to 6 total:

Newest release -> will be posted on the top from now on.

https://t.me/NubiaRedMagic5G_Mods
And note the AnTuTu benchmark is just a first run after installing. 670K is likely a record on any 865 phone. The last bench turning off 4GB ZRAM (12gb/256gb device) I got 673K. AnTuTu doesn't equal performance, but if you've benched you'll see this is an insane improvement over the stock kernel. Only when the demand is there will it scale up to 900mhz. I've been using for a while now and notice no difference in battery life. The Adreno driver is very good at handling extra clock frequencies efficiently without modification (despite an "Adreno Boost" that is often added to kernels). The gamers using the kernel are making statements that they couldn't imagine the game play any better than it already was, but now it's even smoother.
Unfortunately the way the Nubia software behaves, it auto-resets to power level 5 (which was 490mhz) on the 1.0BETA on boot and also after boosting the frequencies up. I tried every possible way to bypass this but eventually just gave in and removed frequencies. So the BETA1.10 and above have less frequencies but will always revert to 305mhz, the base minimum frequency of the device. Hopefully once we have AOSP ready I can add more.

Nice work. Do you notice any benefits to OCing the GPU like that? I don't think there are many games that would benefit atm.
This is amazing !!! :laugh:
Is this going to work on all roms like CN, NA or EU Roms? Im currently running NA 3.11 flash from CN rom with root and twrp
We have people using it on CN Global and NA versions no problem at all. Works fine on every model.
Kernel is fully functional no issues at all.
CN Rom to NA Rom v3.11
305mhz min to 900mhz max confirmed and using smart pack to control the frequency
Thank you for this hopefully there is more development i really appreciate ur effort
Kernel building is just a hobby of mine, I was posting a minimal kernel to get some more kernel developers on board to hopefully add more features. I usually add Boeffla Wakelock Blocker and Dynamic Fsync and call it a basic kernel. The last super kernel I made took way too long, and I don't have that kind of time anymore - boost functions and underclocking to balance out the battery life and such. Development work doesn't pay anything, I didn't get the phone free, all my donations go to other developers. And I have a full time job and family. But if anyone wants to port over my MOD Kernel Q 1.5 Mi9 features, well that would be a super kernel. It's just really, really time consuming, time I don't have at the moment. And the merging of source has to be EXACT or you end up with a really slow phone rather one that balances underclocking, boost, and overclocking.

All the gamers using the kernel are reporting that the games run smoother than before, which no one thought was possible. It is already a flagship device. But the GPU OC with the Adreno driver scales when needed up to the frequencies that it has in the table and has no issue on 670, 800, and 900mhz reported so far. There are gamers on NA, Global, and CN ROMs, with no bugs reported. No issues and everything works properly. I have tested myself and although I'm not a gamer, all the functions work as they should. It still connects via Bluetooth, it still takes photos and videos, etc. There is no lag whatsoever. Overall I think the frequencies are ideal for this device with it's advanced active cooling system. Other devices however, with passive cooling, are unlikely to handle the increased GPU clocks.
I found an unusual bug where the GPU Minimum Frequency will reset on its own to 490mhz even if i set the minimum frequency to 305mhz im using smart pack kernel manager that you provided and cool tool btw to monitor the gpu frequency.
I also set the battery optimization to off on smart pack so it wont turn off itself.
This also happens when i played games that actually boost to 800 to 900mhz then after i close the game it sets back the minimum frequency to 490mhz so i have to set it again to 305mhz on the kernel manager to save more battery and lower the temps.
I also notice it sets back to 490mhz minimum frequency by just watching youtube videos so i have to set it back to 305mhz again. I tried different kernel manager too like Franco Kernel Manager and Kernel Audiator and still doesnt fix the issue
I think this was a minor bug for sure
I never touch the GPU governor btw
Performance was super nice thou i scored 645k on antutu on my first run but for now im going back to stock and gonna wait for your next update
What to do to root the phone without breaking the fingerprint please. I read the article publish nothing understood someone can explain to me step by step. I am an amateur I never root a phone. I have cn 2.55 16gb.
I don't have the same issue - I just tried to recreate it by watching a YouTube video and I went back to SmartPack and it still shows 305MHz GPU frequency. Although I'm using the debloated / optimized ROM I created Black Magic 5G which has everything setup properly, Nubia apps frozen, everything moved to 3rd party apps. NETFLIX patched to 4K HDR10, YouTube Vanced, a ton of root utilities, AdAway ad blocker, etc. You can find it on the Telegram channel (I'm using the NA/Global version of Black Magic 5G). Then I watched Netflix, still at 305mhz. As I have no idea how you've setup your phone, I just can't recreate it.

Yeah maybe because you modified the rom.
Im currently running Flash Global V3.11 when i tested your kernel no modification made im just rooted with TWRP Installed and i posted this kernel on red magic 5g group on facebook and 3 of us having the same issues as well.
Im gonna try it again on V3.13
UPDATE:
still returning to 490mhz as minimum frequency after gaming and after watching one youtube clip
kinda sad hopefully you can fix this bug on the global rom that nubia provided if you have the time, great kernel for gaming because of the 900mhz boost and the phone can sustain this boost because of the active fan
Why don't I have a roughly similar score?
Is it possible to overclock the CPU as well? They officially release the specs sheet of ROG Phone 3 it has overclocked CPU (3.091ghz) and an overclocked GPU. I know this phone can keep up with those clocks because of the cooling system but the problem is the battery life. But still, its worth it.

I believe Qualcomm blocked overclocking of CPUs quite a while ago from SD845. Only GPUs can be overclocked.
Though I don't know if devs have gotten tools to get around it.
The 490 bug looks like it's related to the gaming mode APK resetting the min frequency. I can't decompile or recompile APKs so I don't have a way to get around the system reverting to 490 without removing 3 other frequencies. It seems hard-coded in the app that it only expects to see 5 frequencies so to have all working properly, 3 need to be removed. This is in contrast to what my buddy dev on the Op8 Pro can do, but this device is designed differently in how it boots and custom apps that increase frequency clocks. If any devs are good with APKs it's a very simple function call that sets the minimum GPU frequency. The only odd thing I see is that the minimum power level stays at 8 (minimum) which corresponds to the lowest clock speed. That number doesn't change in a kernel manager when the min GPU clock reverts to 490.
I'm off on vacation not near a PC but will try to come up with a stock # of clock frequencies that still scrolls smoothly between them and the Adreno GPU driver. May take a few tries but it's quite easy to modify. I already think 180mhz is too low from using it, it's more of a sleep frequency some suggested going this low but I think the phone design is for 300+. I prefer to use more clocks for better throttling but have to work with what we are given and do the best inside those boundaries.
No you can't raise CPU clocks on 865 devices that ROG device is supposedly using the 865+ or whatever the mid device is named between the 865 and 875. They have blocked CPU OC hardware wise for some time now.

Qualcomm's Meizu’s CMO Wan Zhiqiang recently commented on Weibo saying that there won’t be a Snapdragon 865 Plus this year.
We will see!
No 865+ this year..
Trust me whatever they call it it's already defined in the source code as a second GPU bin clock for another device ID. So maybe it won't be called an 865+ but there is some device between the 865 and 875 coming out. I have OEM confirmation as well this device exists the name isn't important. I can tell you the top GPU frequency is 670mhz that's it, vs. the 587mhz default on the 865. Still the 865 handles 900mhz GPU no problem the only benefit would be higher CPU clocks. And an extra GPU clock. Which I'll attempt to spoof next time I get near a PC.

Is it possible to overclock the memory clock too? I assumed that 900mhz is the core clock.

You're right, that makes sense.
I'm glad they are making a refreshed chip.
On another note, do you think we will see an overclocking tool in the future?
Possibly with a custom ROM?
