Black hole solutions in general relativity are simple. The frequency spectrum of linear perturbations around these solutions (i.e., the quasinormal modes) is also simple, and therefore it is a prime target for fundamental tests of black hole spacetimes and of the underlying theory of gravity. The following technical calculations must be performed to understand the imprints of any modified gravity theory on the spectrum: 1. Identify a healthy theory; 2. Find black hole solutions within the theory; 3. Compute the equations governing linearized perturbations around the black hole spacetime; 4. Solve these equations to compute the characteristic quasinormal modes. In this work (the first of a series) we assume that the background spacetime has spherical symmetry, that the relevant physics is always close to general relativity, and that there is no coupling between the perturbation equations. Under these assumptions, we provide the general numerical solution to step 4. We provide publicly available data files such that the quasinormal modes of {\em any} spherically symmetric spacetime can be computed (in principle) to arbitrary precision once the linearized perturbation equations are known. We show that the isospectrality between the even- and odd-parity quasinormal mode spectra is fragile, and we identify the necessary conditions to preserve it. Finally, we point out that new modes can appear in the spectrum even in setups that are perturbatively close to general relativity.

Spectral instability of parametrized black hole quasinormal modes in the high-overtone limit via the exact WKB analysis
Constant 1/r⁴-or-higher parametrized corrections to the Regge–Wheeler potential drive the real part of high-overtone QNM frequencies to diverge (e.g., like N^{1/5}), unlike Schwarzschild.

Quasinormal modes of nonlocal gravity black holes
Quasinormal frequencies of nonlocal gravity black holes deviate from Schwarzschild values by up to about 12%, and the derived bounds on the model parameters α and k depend on projected detector sensitivity.

Discrete symmetries of modified Teukolsky equations
Complex modifications of the Teukolsky potential break m=0 QNM degeneracy and can inject non-physical mode branches when frequency-domain multipole-dependent potentials are evolved in time.

Eikonal Quality-Factor Parameterization of Model-Conditional Static Black-Hole Thermodynamics
A quasinormal frequency ratio can invert a one-parameter black-hole family, and RN and static MOG are exactly isospectral for neutral test scalars with different Wald entropies.
