NightKernel v1.2.0

Feature update for Samsung Galaxy A14 5G (SM-A146M / SM-A146B) on Android 15 (One UI 7).

This release introduces comprehensive root stealth with ReSukiSU + SuSFS 2.1.0, kernel-level recovery handling, Windows NT synchronization (NTSync) for emulation, and container support.

What changed:

  • Root & VFS Hiding: Integrated ReSukiSU 3.0.0 with supercall protection patches and SuSFS 2.1.0 (helps hide root paths and mounts from apps; does not guarantee device integrity passing on its own).
  • Recovery Failsafe: Panic-to-recovery (kernel panics auto-reboot to TWRP instead of hard bootlooping) and hardware key reboot without requiring a USB cable.
  • Gaming & Emulation: Native NTSync driver (/dev/ntsync) with 32-bit compat ioctl for Wine / Windows emulation, disabled MMC software CRC checks for lower I/O latency, MGLRU enabled.
  • Containers & Security: Enabled CONFIG_SYSVIPC=y and DroidSpaces for running chroots and Linux containers in Termux; added Baseband Guard (BBG) LSM module protecting /efs and radio partitions.

Downloads & Flashing:

  • TWRP (Recommended): Flash NightKernel-v1.2.0-a14x.zip in recovery and reboot. (Because /data is encrypted with FBE on Android 15, copy to /cache/ or external MicroSD / USB OTG first).
  • Odin: Flash boot-NightKernel-v1.2.0.tar in the AP slot.
  • Direct (Root): dd if=boot.img of=/dev/block/by-name/boot bs=4096 && sync && reboot
