WHICH ROM TO FLASH BEFORE TWRP & CUSTOM ROM?
What is the latest ROM we can use before we flash a custom ROM to avoid battery bug?
I assume it is related to the boot.img as I flashed another and batter was ok but no wifi!
Come on phone nerds let's get this sorted!

Hi guys,
I just wanna ask, when on a custom rom will it be safe to flash any stock rom (2.3.x or 4.0.x) with a custom kernel?
Will I have to flash the stock kernel too with the rom?
I have never tried but I think it's absolutely fine to do it. Go ahead and give it a try.
I see a lot of ROMS posted list kernels other than mine (NC2). Do I need to flash those kernels prior to flashing those roms or not?
Also, If I want to go back to a NC2 roms will I night to flash that kernel back?
I am confused, please lmk. Thanks!

No need to flash kernal.
But, If your developer of Rom said that custom Kernal is required then you should flash custom kernal....
For backing to stock rom you need SP TOOLS (Smart phone tool) & Scatter file.
Every custom Rom does have its own kernel included which works perfectly with it. You don't need to flash any kernel. Just if you want to change the kernel you can change it afterwards. If you want to go back to your rom you have had before, just backup your system folder with twrp for example recovery and then you can restore it back. Hope that helped.
I have been using blu_sp★rk onyx kernel for quite some time and wanted to go back to my stock kernel. So I used Flashify and restore my stock kernel.
The thing is once back to stock kernel, my WIFI doesn't turn on. Any idea how to get it working again? Do I need to re-flash my stock ROM then flash the stock kernel again?
Also, anyone have other suggestion for kernel with good battery performance?
I had the same problem a couple of times, you have to flash all the ota files via twrp or stock recovery
U use f2fs ??if yes tht make ur wifi dosnt turn on bcoz stock kernel dsnt support f2fs

Also, as of right now, blu spark is the only custom kernel available for the OPX. in addition, its only compatible stock rom at the moment.

Thanks for the response guys. Good thing I did backup all the stock rom and kernel via twrp. I'll give it a go during weekends. Still loving the blu spark kernel, re-flashing the ROM doesn't remove all my data right? Also, is that the [X]system for ROM? I know [X]boot is the kernel.. under restore/backup in twrp.
hey guys.
i just flashed blu sparks kernel over Nougat Rom 7.0 on my nexus 5.
i've already did a backup to my stock Rom 6.0.1 via TWRP.
i want to restore to stock,
i'm wondering if i can just restore the backup via TWRP or do i have to Fatsboot system.img?
since i'm familiar with flashing and Doing Commands
Hello guys, I'm on custom AEX treble build with Franco kernel.
My question is: can I flash other custom ROMs over custom kernel or will I have to go back stock kernel before flashing other treble build?

I am going to assume that you are going to do a clean flash/factory reset (deleting apps and their data). When you flash a rom it flashes a kernel so custom kernel is gone.
Although you didn't ask I will state it anyways. If you are trying different custom kernels you need to flash back to the roms original kernel before flashing a new kernel.

I had flash custom kernel once only. Thanks bro for your help.
Hi all, at the moment I have the RR custom rom with my OP7Tpro rooted.
How to update the ROM without losing the root permissions?
How to flash a new kernel without breaking everything? (I was trying to figure out what's the best between arter97 and blu_spark)
How to do both things in a row? first the new rom and then the kernel or viceversa?
Thanks in advance
1) https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/cnejw1/how_to_apply_ota_updates_on_your_op77_pro_and/ ah sorry you have RR i dont know im on OOS
2) FK kernel manager ( there you can backup you kernel or flash a new one), but arter97 is for OOS and blu_spark i dont know but i think it is the same
3) rom then kernel

(1) Update by following the update instructions on the RR ROM 1st post - then patch the "boot.img" using Magisk --> then use computer to "fastboot flash boot [your Magisk patched boot].img".
(2) RR ROM has own (lineage-based? kernel) - OP doesn't recommend custom kernels as might break some features (arter97 kernel on RR ROM breaks in-screen FP function for e.g).
(3) Usually advised to flash custom ROM then kernel.
