I will try to keep this up to date. I'm not a developer, I like mucking about with stuff.
Please give feedback, in the very least just vote on the poll, and I am entirely open to suggestions! I would love to hear from you.
Please try to keep this thread tidy, and if you're reporting issues then logs and a last_kmsg would be greatly appreciated.
Lastly, I hope you enjoy this kernel, attached below, and info about compiling in post #2.

This is ultimately tweaked for performance. Therefore if a governor, for example, has (tweaked) next to it, it is likely to be more so towards the performance side.
None of these features should really have a negative impact on battery life, however, in fact some should improve it.

RE: [KERNEL] AlterNdromadus 3.0.x CM10.1 R1 [3.0.79][22/05/13]
-{ AlterNdromadus SOURCE }-
(Click on the GitHub Logo ^ for AlterNdromadus source)
Of course this is just forked from the mighty Andromadus htc7x30-3.0 kernel source so check that out as well.
-{ PREREQUISITES TO COMPILATION }-
Firstly, you need to know how to use Github. Read @eagleeyetom 's guide. Also read here so you know how to update to the latest Andromadus/my source.
Secondly, to update to the latest kernel version go to CodeAurora, then the boring bit: go through each update individually, click on patch, copy the contents into a file and apply the patch. (see how to do this in the guides below).
Thirdly, don't use the Android NDK, it won't work and Linaro is better anyway. Download the latest Linaro toolchain HERE and specify your path like so:
Code:
export CROSS_COMPILE=/home/PUT_YOUR_USERNAME_HERE/WHATEVER_SUBDIRS_YOU_PLACED_IT_IN/android-toolchain-eabi/bin/arm-eabi-
Last of all, if you're using my source, the AlterNdromadus config is vision_altern_defconfig . This has all the options enabled featured in the OP.
-{ COMPILATION }-
So, you're all set up and now you want to compile your own kernel from mine or the original Andromadus source? Here are some good guides I've found to help:
@TheWizardOfROMs 's [GUIDE] Build Your Own Android Kernel{Easiest and Fastest Way] [Using The NDK]
@thewadegeek 's [Tutorial] Building Your First Kernel
XDA University: Building a kernel from source
-{ ADDING FEATURES }-
Well, that was a bit of anticlimax... it's just like the original, but you compiled it... so you want to add some unique features?
XDA University: Adding features to your kernel
errrmm... there doesn't appear to much stuff on the web about modding kernels, so my advice is to search Github, look at other interesting source (here, here, and here), and just learn.
Have fun!

Is this only for AOSP or CM roms? Can I use it in Sense rom?
Yeah right! You are becoming more and more of a developer with each passing day! Just keep up the good work and you'll be a recognized developer in no time!
I'll be adding this to the aroma package for cm10.1 soon, for now keep up the good work!
And yes this is for cyanogen ROMs and should work in aosp and possibly miui but I doubt sense, feel free to try but do a nandroid first of course!

I can enable writing to NTFS, I just didn't want to mess anything up, as I wasn't sure how well NTFS support would work. I'll enable it in the next release unless anyone has any problems with it.
By the way as a general note to everyone, if I'm not clicking your thanks button for giving me feedback it's 'cause I've reached my limit of 8 already.
Good job implementing the UKSM, let's hope it works well on our G2 just like it is on a desktop.
seems to be better battery life, and even faster
thanks
after flashing this kernel, my mobile turned damn slow and i cant even draw the security pattern at boot up.it seems cant even get my home page.. so lagging..
what can i do?

The developers of UKSM have a test that can be run, I'll try it and see what results it gives. It should be better than normal KSM though.

Glad you think it's working well so not the same performance problems with AndromadusMod, then? (which I haven't abandoned, just having some trouble with it)

Sounds odd, most people are experiencing better performance. What are your settings? Governor, CPU speed, I/O scheduler, anything you've enabled/disabled under performance settings and Developer settings? If nothing seems out of place then I'll release a version without the iosettings init.d script, admittedly I haven't tested this much.
i use ondemand, with noop or deadline...and cpu speed set @ 240-1800, ROM - cm 10.1 v 22.
FORCED Hard Reboots
i tried this kernel to attempt to get rid of the daily reboot that andromadus build 21 had for me.
unfortunately when using this kernel i got forced reboots about once every 4 hours with no warning, no lag, just boom HTC logo and BZZZZ
I have linked the cause here > http://pastebin.com/YtEkpt26
the kernel seems to be reporting incorrectly as 2.6, and the kernel itself crashed and obviously took the system down for a reboot
Also would like to note that this kernel had significantly worse battery usage and lagged doing basic tasks

Have you got any mods installed, e.g. V6 Supercharger, Kick Ass Kerneliser, Cross Breeder, Seeder, anything else? I've just done a fresh install of B22 with this kernel and it seems fine to me, and I haven't installed anything extra apart from a keyboard remap and an apps to SD-ext script. Also, run Antutu or another benchmark app: I usually don't believe in benchmarks but if your getting obviously abysmal results then something must be wrong.
General notice: frandom isn't working by default, I'll need to edit the init.d script to autoload it. Hopefully you should see some more stuff in the next release as well :fingers-crossed: any suggestions?

If you already had forced reboots then I doubt that the kernel is the problem, but there's evidently something not right. I don't suppose you're using SmartassH3? I had problems with it before, but I thought I'd fixed it. Also I ran cat /proc/last_kmsg and it reports the kernel as 3.0.79 (as it should) and no errors. It sounds ridiculous, but it's as if you're not even using this kernel. It should report version 3.0.79 and gcc version 4.8, and your report says the build date was Mon 30th April 2013, it should say Wed 22nd May 2013. Try a completely fresh install of B22 with this kernel.

i have since wiped out /system and installed build 22. I have downloaded a kernel zip and discarded the old one, will update this post with results
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
after a full wipe and install now reporting as 3.0.79, and with proper dates. maybe i had some sort of flag in my build.prop to kill error reporting ( but i dont recall that) essentially stalling it at the last rom that crash ?
this is now reporting properly, but still slow as molasses, and i am not sure why.
Scheduler is ondemand (its all i use, laptop or phone), speeds are set to stock 245/806. it just seems so much less responsive in comparison to the default for me
no didnt flashed any extra tweaks or anything... jus trie in a fresh, even it doesnt support me

OK I've just put a new build out, frandom and the init.d scripts should be working now, so hopefully this might give the performance boost you were missing. If it's still giving you worse performance, try over clocking a bit above stock, I find 1GHz a good middle ground for performance/ battery. Enable show CPU usage in developer settings to see if anything is acting suspiciously. Also I assume you have Max 2/3 background processes enabled in dev settings, it pretty much a requirement for the ROM.
link? not in op for now.

i dont run the background process limit, i instead run a combined 600MB of swap space between cache and data. Had issues where it would kill off skype or andchat :S
But i am downloading this to flash and try again ^^, thank you for reading my post and changing things up for me. Im still not to the stage of making my own phone kernel yet
*******updates to follow*******
whatever all the changes did im not sure, but now it is smooth and responsive for me with the ondemand scheduler and 245/806. and battery life seems really good, with IMO/Skype/andIRC up for 8 hours i was at 50% *there was considerable screen off, but the wifi was being constantly used of course)

Downloads
How to's *READ BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING EVEN IF UR DOWNLOADING STABLE*:
- These builds are currently at the super experimental stage. Whichever below are risky for being your daily driver, but I myself test it before release, so rest assured it will boot.
- By downloading the zip, just wipe cache and dalvik cache and flash the zip.
- Your first bootup may take up to 9 minutes, So yeah. Take note It's not a brick.
- Lastly, Always check up the issues log and make sure you accept that issue before flashing. I assure you that every single bug will be listed there.
- +Some Spoiler+ xD So everytime we release a Build, it means that the next build is ready and under testing Just to say xD

GOLDEN MASTER RELEASE NOTES
- Any release that falls under the Golden Master release is a pre-milestone release. With the G.M Builds, you'll get to enjoy 95% stability system-wide. This means that builds falling under G.M are considered daily drivers. But there's a saying, "Nothing is perfect". So yeah. Expect a few issues here and there. Even if there are, it wouldn't be bad. All the major bugs will be completely killed before the Beta phase ends.
- Boot up speeds won't take as long as Alpha and Beta releases, expect booting to be much shorter

STABLE RELEASE NOTES
- Yep. You see this. It means the kernel is good to go, you can take it, put it into your phone, and run it like you're putting a bacon on a bread Like spreading butter over a pan. That smooth. There should be virtually no issues here. Even minor ones most probably are ROM-related. Unlike the builds above, you won't get to enjoy super experimental features like higher frequency clock rates. Take note of that

- This is the final few builds that can near the End Of Line product of the kernel. Whatever is here is extremely experimental, untested and unsupported. These builds are only a minor preview of the upcoming super milestone. Do not think that the main features of the super milestone will appear here. This is because we don't want other developers to strip our works off immediately even before we release the super milestone.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).
- Wait, is this another mainline kernel?
*No. It is not. ASKP has commits that would come from almost every part of the world. This gives it the feeling of unity, like a unified kernel. Apart from that, Patches from Various manufacturers of the many parts of the phone will be brought upfront into this kernel.

Joining the ASKP Team.
- Yep, you see this. I just feel that being a soloist isn't helping this kernel. I want to bring an up to date kernel to my users as soon as I can, and in fact, I prefer giving them nightly builds. But it is the fact that I can't work on it daily, so I need more help, that's why I am forming a team, a team to help in this kernel. So here are the few people I need
+ Kernel Developer (You know it
+ App Developer (Something like A trickster mod?) xD
+ Official Tester - We've got two already So Yeah, no need anymore
PM me please or email me @ [email protected]
here comes a kernel!
Another yay :good: !

IMHO, is stupid release thing when 's unusable, i suggest do some test alone,without write new post here, and when u have first beta usable without any big problem release beta for find every little bug and problems
Never understand this haste of release thing.
I never seen HALO alpha that don't work but only floating visible
I never seen franco kernel that don't boot
i never seen AOKP official released with no audio working

relax, the dev clearly mentioned in the title thats this is an "alpha".. if you want something bug free dont flash alphas and try showing some respect the guy is doing this for free and in his spare time, dont act like you pay the devs to build rom/kernels/mods/etc
Okay guys. I found the issue. I'm gonna fix it asap. It's within the RAMDisk, really glad to hear this cause it will be fixed easily.

Okay I really need your help now. I switched the RAMDisk to Franco's. Still doesn't work. Dang.
And here's the latest build. I even attempted a switch to codesourcery.
I can't figure out. The same errors appeared in the logs i've sent you.

Broken wireless is strange and surely is merge error or compilation error,

Mine is not criticism or an offense, just an observation, you're right! there are always bugs but imho broken wireless is strange,
i suggest anyway to confront https://github.com/Amperific/kernel_tuna_4.2/blob/nightly/arch/arm/configs/amperific_tuna_defconfig with stock one or see compilation error while compiling wireless module

Anarkia, Can you help? Would be very grateful if you do so. I've tried again thrice today. Am tired. Can't find any issue. Darn it. I'm heading to sleep. I hope you can lecture me in fixing this issue. Faced it before but didn't know how to fix it.
Thanks a million in forward

As I can't find the RAMdisk anywhere, I cannot tell you for sure what is wrong (I haven't read the logs that were posted because 4shared need registration). Nevertheless, I think I know what's going on:
Your defconfig is set-up to build the WiFi driver as a module. After compiling your kernel, the module is located at /drivers/net/wireless/bcmdhd/bcmdhd.ko. You need to insert this (and exactly this) module on boot in order to get WiFi working. If you upload your RAMdisk, I can tell you in detail what has to be done.
You can save yourself from trouble by not building wireless as a module. In your defconfig, simply set CONFIG_BCMDHD=y.
In Fancy Kernel, I'm also building it as a module, because there's a workaround for suspend WiFi drops that relies on ejecting / reinserting the module.
[EDIT] Turns out I had an account. And my assumption was right:
Code:
[ 253.240570] bcmdhd: version magic '3.0.82-4.2-fancy_kernel-r31-ext SMP preempt mod_unload ARMv7 ' should be '3.0.82-ASPK SMP preempt mod_unload ARMv7 '
So judging from that message, I see you have automatic module inserting already (it's most likely my RAMdisk?!). All you have to do is to replace bcmdhd.ko in /sbin after every compilation. That is if you want to keep CONFIG_BCMDHD=m of course.

Downloads
How to's *READ BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING EVEN IF UR DOWNLOADING STABLE*:
- These builds are currently at the super experimental stage. Whichever below are risky for being your daily driver, but I myself test it before release, so rest assured it will boot.
- By downloading the zip, just wipe cache and dalvik cache and flash the zip.
- Your first bootup may take up to 9 minutes, So yeah. Take note It's not a brick.
- Lastly, Always check up the issues log and make sure you accept that issue before flashing. I assure you that every single bug will be listed there.
- +Some Spoiler+ xD So everytime we release a Build, it means that the next build is ready and under testing Just to say xD

GOLDEN MASTER RELEASE NOTES
- Any release that falls under the Golden Master release is a pre-milestone release. With the G.M Builds, you'll get to enjoy 95% stability system-wide. This means that builds falling under G.M are considered daily drivers. But there's a saying, "Nothing is perfect". So yeah. Expect a few issues here and there. Even if there are, it wouldn't be bad. All the major bugs will be completely killed before the Beta phase ends.
- Boot up speeds won't take as long as Alpha and Beta releases, expect booting to be much shorter

STABLE RELEASE NOTES
- Yep. You see this. It means the kernel is good to go, you can take it, put it into your phone, and run it like you're putting a bacon on a bread Like spreading butter over a pan. That smooth. There should be virtually no issues here. Even minor ones most probably are ROM-related. Unlike the builds above, you won't get to enjoy super experimental features like higher frequency clock rates. Take note of that

PRE-SUPER MILESTONE RELEASE NOTES
- This is the final few builds that can near the End Of Line product of the kernel. Whatever is here is extremely experimental, untested and unsupported. These builds are only a minor preview of the upcoming super milestone. Do not think that the main features of the super milestone will appear here. This is because we don't want other developers to strip our works off immediately even before we release the super milestone.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).
- Wait, is this another mainline kernel?
*No. It is not. ASKP has commits that would come from almost every part of the world. This gives it the feeling of unity, like a unified kernel. Apart from that, Patches from Various manufacturers of the many parts of the phone will be brought upfront into this kernel.

Now,
Build 5.
It is a complete rebuild of Build 4, reverting a few unstable commits and bringing in some hotplugging fixes.
Build 5a,
Has the new generic hotplug helper from 3.10 RC 7, fixing issues that involve natively shutting core down. This should improve the hotplugging of our phone by about 50%. and also, it includes new governor tweaks and fixes and also OMAP based fixes

Well, I went ahead and flashed this kernel. I hardly ever comment until things run a few cycles. However, over the past few months, I've flashed so many different kernels trying to get stability, good performance and battery life. Nothing has worked exceptionally well as problems always set in after either a couple cycles or days. As such, I'm desperate.
So far, this is the smoothest and fastest kernel I've installed since the AK Cylon days. Hopefully, it holds up and I will have found a new beast for my GNex.
Let me know if you still need any testers. I'll do my best to help within my realm of usage (power user) and knowledge (advanced user but not developer or programmer).
Thanks!

So does this mean the device will no longer sometimes freeze when it hotplugs? Or is this not included in the 50%?
just flashed on Raped Ape, and so far is running very nicely. too soon to give any deep insight, but it seems quite quick and responsive for a pre-milestone build!
Many thanks for the work - keep it up!!!

READ THIS PLEASE:
Everyone, sorry to disappoint but this kernel is now dead. Due to a serious serious issue with the git client, me trying to delete 1 repo caused the deletion of my kernels repo instead. There will be no builds anymore, I would have to start from scratch and I do not remember every line of code I have changed for the past 4 months.
My sincerest apologies to you guys, I am still shocked myself right now, I can't believe it did that.
I will keep downloads up for now but I doubt the kernel will work bug free into the future without keeping up with driver updates and such. If there are any GPL concerns from any mods here on xda, please let me know and I will take the links down. I had source up until it got deleted. Thanks for the help, experience, and the times guys. You made this kernel a wonderful learning experience for me. Look out for my app in the next few months guys, its my new project if git doesn't screw me on that too.
My settings:
Gov: asswax
IO: row
Read ahead: 1024
Voltages: (stock, I pick them in the first place )
GPU: 480

-updates deadline scheduler to have 0ms latency (credits to imoseyon)
10.03.2013 Release Candidate
-cm updates
-asswax tunables adjusted to personal preference. Ramps up slower but also ramps down slower, also focuses on lower
clocks at screen up and deep sleep. Check the git if you're curious
-Linaro 4.8.2 instead of 4.7 used to compile
-Latest linux 3.4.64
-378 clock changed back to 384 (so much more stable and battery friendly)
-voltage adjustments
[COLOR="Red"]This is probably my last build for this phone, when the Nexus 5 comes out I will probably get it and sell my gs3, so if the
price is less than $350, this will be it guys. Thanks for testing as I made my first kernel. I learned a lot! If any huge issues
present themselves I will obviously update it.
4.2.2 is being worked on, but my tester has to get back to me on the latest build (I run 4.3 personally) and then I will upload!
[/COLOR]
09.25.2013
-cm updates
-bluetooth updates
-basically update the everything
-linux updated to 3.4.61 (x.62 will be implemented soon hopefully
-modified clocks a bit to try and get better stability
-sorry updates have been slow (school and all), I am planning on getting a nexus 5 on release so prepare for a potential stop on this kernel for the gs3 when that happens (sorry)
08.23.2013
-tweaked sheep colors a bit and colors look whiter than ever!!
-voltage tweaks (again)
-smartmax governor added(info on it [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38193047&postcount=6943"]here[/URL])
08.22.2013
-trying to fix various bugs
-linux 3.4.59 update
08.20.2013b(4.3)
-torch is done! Finally figured out what was going wrong
08.20.2013(4.3)
-linux 3.4.58 updates
-latest cm sources
-fixed torch
-bionicsheep colors should be implemented on boot (no yellow tint)
-voltage tweaks
08.15.2013(4.3)
-rebased from cm so latest drivers and merges
-linux 3.4.57 updates
-upped voltages on overclock so this should fix reboots for some people
-code clean ups
-modified screen colors, its like trinity but my tweaks.
I tried to make colors less saturated and cool the colors
(to enable for now just switch the screen temp (to any option)
in the advanced settings and lock your device,
I will enable on boot if you guys like it)
-so with new drivers this build tends to produce graphical
glitches on older versions of ROMS (pwncakes latest build has been
tested and works)
-old versions of the kernel also no longer play nice with new versions of ROMS
08.12.2013(4.3)
-fixed reboots for some people (I wasn't able to get it to reboot so
hopefully this works for you guys, let me know if it doesn't)
-undervolting finally is here and stable!
-user undervolting is back (min is 850 so going lower is pointless)
-it seems smoother than normal
08.11.2013(4.3) Part 2
-forgot to include frandom module in last build its here now
-you should see some performance improvements especially if you
use things like the crossbreeder mod
08.11.2013(4.2.2)
-frandom support
-clock changes
08.11.2013 (4.3)
-faux sound has returned
-Stable underclocking to 270 (whooooo)
-Stable overclocking to 1620 (WHOOOO)
-frandom support
-easter egg
-mpdecision disabled and removed on boot
-latest cm sources merged
08.10.2013 (4.3) Part 2
-think I fixed hot plugging (confirmed)
08.10.2013 (4.3)
-rebased with latest cm sources
-added thalamus auto hot plugging and double checked its working
-added governors:
+asswax
+wheatley
+badass
+smartassh3
+intellidemand
-added IOSched:
+tripndroid
+fifo
+sio
08.09.2013 (4.2.2)
-fixed hot plugging so that it actually shuts down the second core
-mpdecision is removed since hot plugging works now so you don't have to change a thing
08.06.2013 (4.2.2)
-thalamus hotplugging
-fifo scheduler
-easter egg (you will see when you boot)
08.05.2013

Thanks man. Much appreciated. Like I said, let me know if you have any requests
Downloading this shiz right now. Yay for new kernels. :highfive::good:
So it looks like if you flash over Ktoonz the tweaker box will stay there which is fine.... I must say coming from any reboot I've never seen where a kernel loads up widgets and everything so fast... nice work on that
Responce wicked fast, deep sleeps better than my snoring wifey,
Small querks I've noticed upon flash there is a lag switching pages and responce is slow I've noticed that you can get SOD I'm running at 15xx to 16xx to test high CPU, and that once SOD is in.place Battery Pull require. But works very well
Request, savage zen& zen, Wheatley, smartassh3, Lionheart would be great but very stable kernel so far Big Props!
Edit : running Liquid smooth 2.9

When you first flash, you will have lag for a minute or two but then after that it is gone. Idk if I can fix this, but I will look into it. Hmmmmm, haven't gotten any sleep of death yet. What governor are you running? I would recommend asswax since it is just the smartest in my opinion. Also what was your minimum clock? This could cause SOD. Thanks for the help and I will have those governors for you on the next build (shouldn't be long, hell I might be up tomorrow morning)
EDIT: I will try raising the voltages on my underclock and see if that works. For future reference I run this on CM just for smoothness, but I will try testing on LS when I get a chance

His device may not be able to handle UV. I've been booted for almost 30 minutes now with no issues. I've left it stock so far so I will change to badass and see if it happens. So far though smooth as hell.
For reference, I am on Carbon 1.8 Stable.

As the above poster requested, savagezen is nice. Not sure if it's been ported to 3.4 yet though. Asswax is also nice.
As for IO Sched, there is an awesome one for a T-Mobile kernel to check out. tripndroid iosched by TripNRaVeR. Very smooth with no noticeable drain.

hmmm :/ fast toggle working here with trickster mod. Make sure the phone is unplugged. Then toggle fast charge on. And then you should be able to plug it in. Fast charge won't work if its plugged in.

More downloads, including alphas and old releases in the 3rd post.
PRETTY DISCLAIMER!
Code:
I am not responsible for bricks, thermonuclear war, exploding cows or you
getting fired because the alarm clock failed. YOU are choosing to use these
modifications and it is YOUR responsibility and phone.
If you say it's my fault, I'll point my finger at you and let the others laugh. Silently, in the background, I might just help you fix your issue.
Also, OC is dangerous and blablabla, you've heard it all before.Kernel sources available at my GitHub account.

Second post!
And now, a FAQ. @franciscofranco's FAQ, updated to fit our device.
F.A.Q. - Read this before complaining!
1. My phone exploded, HALP!
A: I don't answer to problems without a log. The log file is in /proc/last_kmsg. Paste it on pastie.org and link it on your post. Logcats are useless for Kernel purposes, don't bother posting them.
2. OMG BETTARY SUCKZ, IT DEAD IN 45 MINUTAS, HALP!
A: As you can imagine I don't build kernels to decrease battery life. All the battery life problems come from your apps, either Facebook, or Maps, or some Location Service being enabled etc etc. Check your damn wakelocks and fix them, the kernel is not responsible for them.
3. How do I flash this?
A: Since it's an .elf file, it's only flashable through fastboot. The general command is "fastboot flash kernel.elf"
4. OP is arrogant, I'm gonna call the Internet Police?
A: Deal with it.
5. Touch Control doesn't work in rXXX release, you suckas, fix plixe!
A: I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for a fix, I can tell you I don't have the solution. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you leave now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I ignore you.
6. What's up with the kernel's name?
A: Well I have '755' in my name. So there's that...
7. I'm on stock/CM10/CM9/GB and this kernel doesn't work.
A: This kernel is ONLY for CyanogenMod 10.1 and any ROMs that came of it (like AOKP, for example). Don't flash on anything else unless you are SURE the ROM is based off of RaymanFX's CM10.1.
8. My Locked-bootloader phone won't boot with this/I can't flash it.
A: This is a custom kernel. It requires an unlocked bootloader.
9. What app do you recommend for dealing with CPU settings?
A: Use TricksterMod. For 2D GPU OC and setting the 2nd core's governor, I recommend Kernel Tuner. Both are feature-packed and free, and if you don't mind an extra icon in your drawer, I say get both.
10. What is the difference between releases marked as a# and r#?
A: The r# releases are considered the most stable, but do not pack all the features. Because my work is rather slow, I'll add an alpha, an a# release, every time a minor change is introduced. But even if they look and feel stable, do not consider them as such. Most of them are dirty builds!!! Meant for advanced users only, so distributed in fastboot-flashable format ONLY!
11. I want to support you and your work!
A: Putting a subtle sign in your signature that you're using my kernel (or like it or have used it). Please, no big banners or anything, just the name of the kernel. That would be appreciated the most.
And now, thanks!
@RaymanFX -- helping me with nearly all issues and, of course the kernel sources. Also for an old project from which I learnt how proper GPU OC is done.
@abcdjdj -- writing a neat tutorial on how to compile kernels, and telling me about the -w flag

Again, can a mod please delete this one?
Why did DevDB add this? Can I please get a Mod to delete it? :3
so the actual kernel itself is not even built yet?? I thought placeholders are not allowed?
It is built, sorry it took me some time to write the OPs
Check again, the first build is there :3
Great work really ! i have been waiting for an overclocked kernel for CM.10.1. Any chance of getting the GPU overclocked too ? and one more, is the CM10.1 kernel only overclocked ?
I said tnx I even recommend PAC users to try your kernel but try to slow down a little bit.
Your OP is ridiculous...you are arguing with yourself man...
You'll undermine your good work with stupid sentences.
Friendly advice - don't do that - be nice and all guys will appreciate you.
Tnx

@Anicane: Yeah, it's OC'd, but the boot frequency is locked at 1,5GHz. All features are up there in the OP.
There are more to come, I'm hoping to release a shiny new build sometime this week.
Though GPU OC is gonna take me a bit more time to figure out (I'm a complete newbie at this )
@funky0308: But I don't want to sound 'Dead F***ing Serious' D: Just look at how pretty my disclaimer title is :3 (Also note how I'm not responsible for exploding cows c: )
I'm here to prove you don't have to be serious to do a good job. All it takes is determination and time.
Thanks for the recommendations, though, appreciated
Nice to see a new developer here. What about some GPU overclock?
OP is just what it really has to be in every thread to avoid those guys who crap everything up and blame authors for that.

Yeah, as said, GPU OC is coming, but it's not on the priorities list.
I'm currently adding 3 I/O schedulers, so that's new. Hopefully you'll get a new build by midnight
Next are CPU governors (hopefully a lot of them). -- Any specific wishes here? I have quite a lot to choose from
Only when I finish that, I'll add GPU OC. Thank god it's all open source, so I can steal a little from here and there
Also, I'm having some issues with the compiler, so that could make things worse... (Damnit, -O3 flag, y u no work!? I want you optimized... ;-
Cool!! Will try it tonight...
Thanks man!!
Good job!
so if my cow explodes who do I blame?

Waiting for zip to flash through recovery ,of the kernel,great job ! :good::good:
@Ben36: Blame the government, I can't be held responsible if your cows explode
And yeah, r2 won't come as a flashable zip.
Maybe r3, but I can't really see into the future
Rated the thread 5 STAR,maybe i can see the future
Can u add MP decision...?
P.S. Chmod 755 can't be the most stupid thing cause we have lovely chmod -x chmod

After Flashing any Kernel Or Rom let you Phone Cool down to normal temp before you start using it. Pls dont complain the phone is heating n lagging. Flashing n things have heavy CPU usage so if will Heat.
Disable "Enable per-app Profile" if you are running benchmarks like Antutu

Setting n tweaks
daily use settings
governor = alucard
i/o scheduler = BFQ
cpu = 300 min 1689 max
Alucard Hotplug
gpu mac clk = 450
DT2W will drain battery so think before you tweak around with the kernel n end up telling me your kernel is giving me **** Battery packup
Faux Sound
dont complaint if sound distorts at loud profile
loud profile is mean for full size cans (headphones) n similar things where you need a little more power
dont switch it on if you are using IEM (in-ear earphones) or normal earphones
i normally keep a setting of
digital output gain = 3
analog output gain=5
Hope that this clears some questions n helps you guys :fingers-crossed:
msm_mpdecision

What is msm_thermal?
What is msm_mpdecision?
100% kernel based multi core decision! (should cpu1/2/3 be online or not?)
This replaces your /system/bin/mpdecision binary which is renamed by the installer to mpdecision_bck.
Check /sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf/ for the configuration.
startdelay = time until mpdecision starts doing it's magic
delay = time between checks
pause = if something else plugs in the cpu, fall asleep for 10000ms
max_cpus_online_susp = if the screen is off, how many core should be active when the screen is off
enabled = enable(1) or disable(0) mpdecision. This does not affect max_cpus_online_susp
min_cpus = min cpus to be online, cannot be < 1. Default: 1
max_cpus = max cpus to be online, cannot be > 4. (if you set it to 2 and min_cpus to 1 you will basically have a dualcore) Default: 4
idle_freq = a value against that will be checked if a core +/- is requested. (300000)
If cpu0 is below that value and a core up of another cpu is requested, nothing will happen.
If any other cpu is above that value and a core down of that cpu is requested, nothing will happen. (otherwise it would now put down that cpu even though it is still working, which isn't what we want)
Hot plug thresholds (aka now it gets 'complicated')
This small formula calculates which value will be used: (number_of_cpus_online - 1) * 2
The result of this formula will be the nwns_threshold where a new cpu is hotplugged.
The result of this formula + 1 will be the nwns_threshold where a cpu is unplugged.
nwns_threshold_x = runqueue threshold, if this is reached cpuX will be hot/unplugged
twts_threshold_x = time threshold, this amount of time must have passed for the related action to be taken (hot/unplug)
Example:
One cpu is online.
(1 - 1) * 2 = 0 ergo:
nwns_threshold_0 = cpu1 will be hotplugged at this value
((1 - 1) * 2) + 1 = 1
nwns_threshold_1 = cpu0 will be unplugged at this value
Since we can't unplug cpu0 this is '0'.
Two cpus are online.
(2 - 1) * 2 = 2 ergo:
nwns_threshold_2 = cpu2 will be hotplugged at this value
((2 - 1) * 2) + 1 = 3
nwns_threshold_3 = cpu1 will be unplugged at this value
etc...
Some values are:
NwNs_Threshold: 12, 0, 25, 20, 32, 28, 0, 35
TwTs_Threshold: 140, 0, 140, 190, 140, 190, 0, 190
Where the position and function of the number equals the result of the above explained formula.
(all times are in ms)
If you want to see the mpdecision magic happening:
Code:
adb shell
cat /proc/kmsg | grep 'MPDEC'
mpdecision's input event boost, aka project butter
This will boost your min cpu speed if you touch the screen or press a button and gives you full control.
In those events the min cpu freq will be risen to a predefined value (look below) on every online cpu. This boosts overall reaction times and smoothness a lot. (works similar to the qcom mpdecision binary)
Configuration files:
[email protected]:/sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf # ls | grep boost
boost_enabled
boost_freqs
boost_time
All of them work like the usual sysfs files, except one special case:
boost_freqs will list all frequencies from cpu 0 to cpu x. Cpu 3 and any following cpu will share one frequency.
To change those frequencies echo the cpu number + the frequency in khz.
Example: To change the boost freq of cpu3 (and 4,5,6,7,8, etc) the echo would look as follows:
Code:
echo "3 960000" > /sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf/boost_freqs
for cpu0:
Code:
echo "0 960000" > /sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf/boost_freqs
Defaults:
Code:
cat /sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf/boost_freqs
960000
960000
729600
576000
Why do I have no WLAN?
Due to this kernels very high optimization settings it is too big for our boot.img with WLAN included into the kernel, so it is built as a module. That means it needs to be inserted into the kernel upon boot up, which needs to be automated for maximum comfort.

enabling n disabling a hotplug is simple
1 = enabled
0=disabled
to disabling a hotplug here is a example via terminal
Code:
echo "0" /sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf/enabled
you can use third party apps too to make it a macro
i like aero kernel control available in the playstore
goto misc settings
tap "+" sign
navigate to the path you want n set the parameter as a macro
msm_hotplug
enabling n disabling msm_hotplug
/sys/module/msm_hotplug/enabled
other parameters
/sys/module/msm_hotplug/
msm_mpdecision
enabling n disabling the msm_mpdecision
/sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf/enabled
other parameters
/sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf/
intelli_plug
enabling n disabling the intelli_plug
/sys/module/intelli_plug/parameters/intell_plug_active
other parameters
/sys/module/intelli_plug/parameters/
MAKE SURE YOU DISABLE THE OTHER HOTPLUGS BEFORE YOU ENABLE ONE
if you enable intelli_plug make sure bricked_hotplug and msm_hotplug are disabled
if you enable msm_hotplug make sure bricked_hotplug n intelli_plug are disabled
bricked_hotplug is enabled by default as i feel its the best daily driver for max sot n battery life without compromising on performance
The zip adds module insertion to your ramdisk, if that fails for some reason the wlan module cannot be inserted.
if
Code:
adb shell lsmod
doesn't show this:
Code:
tun 14701 0 - Live 0x00000000
cifs 275399 0 - Live 0x00000000
bcmdhd 2964650 0 - Live 0x00000000 (C)
Then something went horribly wrong.
Chances are that I broke it and this should never happen.
One post in the issue tracker will probably fix it with the next release
You can restore wlan for your current bootup by executing:
Code:
adb shell
su
insmod /system/lib/modules/bcmdhd.ko
Thanks. Downloading. Gonna try asap. Will leave feedback.

Flashed it on cm11 RC16 for now, everything seems swift and smooth for now. Gonna leave more feedback soon on CM11 RC16.
Tomorrow I'll move to carbon RC6, will provide more feedback then.
Now, I'm gonna go and play around with the settings. Heh.

So, I played around with some settings and I found a bug. Sweep2Sleep (Also Sweep2Wake) isn't properly implemented, neither is it working nor are its settings proper. https://app.box.com/s/q58sztnn0y8eizuu0go99jlizyngnn3m
Edit : So, I tried the wake settings in trickster mod and when I selected s2w+s2s then s2s is working but s2w is just not working, I tried swiping in many ways, many many times but Its just not working. Also, if u select just s2s then it just reverts back to s2w+s2s probably because s2s isn't working.
I did a standard test I do with all kernels that I try (I have tried all the latest versions of all kernels that are currently available), I close every app that is running in background using greenify, CPU is set to 1.6ghz - 300 MHz, intelliplug (eco mode disabled in urs, no other has eco mode, I use mp-decision on those which doesn't have intelliplug), on demand governer, GPU set at Max (550 on urs and beast kernel and 450 on others) and I play a 720p hevc video, on ur kernel i was getting the smoothest playback among all (It was lagging for the least amount of time, same lag times as beast kernel, so might be just cause of OCd GPU). But in any case, currently this kernel is the best performing and feature rich kernel available. Period.
I'll try other settings (especially eco mode), and will leave further feedback soon.
Thanks, I await further updates. Loving the increasing amount of kernels on our forums.

This is what happens when you don't read the phuxking documentation.

What do u mean by 'Documentation' ? If u inferring that I didn't read the OP, then I'll inform that I properly read it before flashing the kernel, it says nothing about this. I did notice that the feature list says 'Sleep 2 Sleep' instead of 'Sweep 2 Sleep' but nothing else. What am I missing here, buddy ?

I know that, S2W isn't working in any case.
Great Work.
Using this kernel currently with CM R16, everything is working fine.
Battery life is excellent for me. After nearly 15h - there is still 72% battery left. Usage: Screen on: 30 min, Wifi, Bluetooth always enabled.
Only thing so far is that Netflix is not working, but this might be totally Rom related, as it was also not working with the orginal kernel.

only s2w wouldnt work s2s n s2w both with be enable together
Thanks for this kernel tarun...really a great one...every thing works awesome...just by using trickstar mod...and this kernel is working for me on PAC latest nitly...just have to flash kernel comparability patch updated!!! Lol
little warm
is this only for me or not, but i feel little warm when using this kernel on carbon. and thats make battery reduce faster.

fir the first start yes it is let it cool down for a while n you are good to go it wont heat there after
is this working on Mokee 4.4.4 Nightly?
I cant turn the zram off. If i turn it off and save it emidiately gets turned on again. Am i doing something wrong?
everything is working for me guys.

S2W is also working properly for me. I am on CM11 RC16.
Tarun93 please mention the settings for best battery and best performance separately please coz I play games a lot and I want to get max battery when I'm not gaming .
