Okay thanks.

The git version of the HackRF firmware is a snapshot of the bleeding
edge at some point in time too.

You should post the output of

  hackrf_info

Also, you need to test to see if your computer can sample at 8 MHz
without dropping data

  hackrf_transfer -r /dev/null

by comparing the output of the 2 columns. See

  https://greatscottgadgets.com/sdr

The rtl dongle samples somewhere around 2.5 MHz but typically less than
3 MHz.

The default sampling rate for the hackrf_transfer is 10 MHz.

And there's a DC offset at the center frequency - you need to look into
how the program deals with it.
