Donning a new name in favour of the new delicious version of Android... Welcome to the ThunderKat Project!!
Heavily based of my Flaming Monkey kernel configurations and the stock AOSP kernel source, here's my standalone kernel for the Nexus 10. I will maintain this independently.
It will always remain close to the AOSP exynos kernel for manta (Nexus 10) with a few useful tweaks and additions, but will not have any OC/UV, colour controls and any advanced customisation options. It is a stable kernel and will not have frequent updates.
This kernel uses the AnyKernel method and is ROM independent. I have tested this on 4.4 (Stock & AOSP) based ROMs.
Features:
1. Linux Kernel 3.4.39.
2. Based on AOSP KitKat MR1 kernel source for exynos/manta.
3. Built using the Google ARM GCC 4.8 toolchain with -O3 CFLAGS & AFLAGS optimisations & ARM Cortex A15 build optimisations.
4. Enabled Conservative & Powersave CPU frequency governors (in addition to Interactive, Performance & Userspace). Interactive set as default.
5. Preserve correct sysfs permissions on governor change.
6. KSM (Kernel Samepage Merging) support.
7. NTFS, F2FS, EXT4 xattr (extended attributes) support.
8. Networked file systems support (NFS V3, NFS V4 & CIFS).
9. HIDRAW support (supports non-conformant HID devices).
10. Support for more input devices (keyboards, mice & joysticks) including Logitech Unifying devices.
11. Support for USB serial modems (PPPOE).
12. Support for multi-card readers (multi-lun devices). This allows you to mount multiple cards using a multi-card reader. May need an app like StickMount. (Credit @nvertigo67)
13. Removed SWAP support.
14. Removed some un-needed debugging.
15. Increased thermal throttle limits
16. Scalable CPU frequencies
Changelog [2014/08/24]:
1. Built using Graphite optimized GCC4.8 toolchain
2. Added ROW & SIO I/O schedulers
3. Set ROW as default I/O scheduler
4. Upstream F2FS changes
5. Miscellaneous I/O improvements
Changelog [2014/06/05]:
1. Update to AOSP 4.4.3 kernel source (kitkat-mr2)
2. Added F2FS filesystem support
Changelog [2013/12/15]:
1. Update to AOSP 4.4.1/4.4.2 kernel source (kitkat-mr1)
Changelog [2013/11/21]:
1. Initial release
Information:
1. Flash using a custom recovery (TWRP/CWM).
2. This kernel is ROM independent and uses the AnyKernel method. Hence it uses the current ramdisk. You may have issues if this is flashed after a kernel with a custom ramdisk. If so, reflash your ROM and then flash this kernel.
3. Needs an unlocked bootloader.
4. Make sure you have at least 50% battery charge before flashing this.

Very cool! I will be trying this tomorrow, will have time to play with it. Nice to see KSM in it.
Nicely done. I'm running your kernel as we speak--snappy, snappy! No issues so far. :good:
Only thing left to do now is give it a catchy name like: "The CRAIGINATOR"
Wow, great news, thanks craig!

Thanks...and yes, I will be renaming my ROM and kernel to something more... well, appealing... when I restart the ROM project...
Once I'm at 50% I'll be all over this like a rash

Great job, runs great! Only issue is it defaults to cfq scheduler on boot even when I have it set to run deadline.
More of a preference than an issue.
This kernel is really good, I was very impressed by your previous Rom and look forward to the new Rom you said will be released later in the year (hopefully!). Your hard work is much appreciated. Using your kernel with Carbon Rom right now and it seems very stable.

this kernel works best on my N10. no reboot, no SOD and no battery drain.
my tablet is 10 days up without a single problem or recharge! :good:
i hope it will be continued in the future!
Yes, I will continue supporting this kernel... though there will not be many updates... the aim to to remain close to AOSP, yet provide some useful tweaks and additions... I will be building a newer version soon (having problems with the cross compiler on my work laptop, else I would have done it today)...
Hi!
Can I flash this kernel to the stock ROM?
And revert back when new android version comes out to OTA update?
Thank you

Yes, this will work fine on stock...and you can easily revert back using the boot.img from the factory images provided by Google...
Updated release in OP...
Does this have the latest wifi and or gpu drivers? I know wifi drivers are kernel level, not sure about the gpu though. Anyways, its a very nice and smooth kernel. It's been a baron wasteland in mantaland. I guess Google didn't sell many of these.
I just installed the kernel, very smooth, I was having shutdowns on Trinity latest and RootBox. Hopefully is not a ROM problem and this kernel fixes it, I really like RootBox.
Thanks for the awesome work and support.

Anyone here with sufficient kernel knowledge to merge the updated mali graphics drivers (http://malideveloper.arm.com/develo...n-source-mali-t6xx-gpu-kernel-device-drivers/)... There are a few updates that are beyond my kernel & C/C++ capabilities... like osk has been replaced by kbase... Please PM me if you can help!! Thanks!
Great work on this kernel! First time reaching 9 hours on screen time. Paired with Mr Robinson AOKP.

Hey Everyone,
I'm by no means a pro at kernel building but I've put lots of effort into these kernels so I thought I'd share them with you. The Uber kernel will always be updated to the latest Kernel version and will be overclocked to 1890 MHz or 1998 GHz (2 GHz) you decide which option you are willing to do. Unlike some of the other T-mobile Galaxy S II Hercules developers out there, I actually have a Galaxy S II and plan on having it until Summer 2014. This means that EVERY KERNEL I POST HAS BEEN TESTED AND IS WORKING although it might not be perfect (few things in life ever are).
Even though I don't post anything unless it works I still don't want to be liable for user errors. In other words, if you flash one of these Kernels your warranty is void and I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE for any data loss or bricked devices etc. A Clean install is ALWAYS recommended. That does not necessarily mean you can't install these kernels on you current build it just means that you might have problems if you do. Recently apps have been getting corrupted for whatever reason whether on Stock or AOSP and in most cases they cause RRs and SODs. If you find yourself in one of those situations a clean install is the easiest fix. If you want to try and save you apps then connect to you phone while in recovery using adb. Then type adb shell. Now once you are in that shell you can run this command to fix your apps "e2fsck -yfDC0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25" it could take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour depending on the state of your apps.
[AOSP 4.4.x UBER KERNEL LINK]
UBER 4.1 - 1.89 GHz RELEASE for AOSP 4.4 KitKat
UBER 4.1 - 2 GHz RELEASE for AOSP 4.4 KitKat
All old Kernels can be found on Dev Host via this link (be careful you read file names and descriptions carefully if you choose to take a peek around) http://d-h.st/users/Cl3Kener/
Installation Instructions
**** IMPORTANT!!! USE TWRP 2.6.1.0+ for 4.4 kernels!!! Failure to do so may result in bootloops due to changes made to TWRP to accommodate SELinux in 4.4 ROMs (Links include flashable TWRP installation zips credits to meekrawb. Just flash them in your current recovery! ) ****
1. For best results a install these kernel after a fresh ROM install (although it still should work if you don't do that)
2. Reboot into recovery (MAKE SURE YOU USE THE RIGHT ONE!!! (See red print above))
3. Flash Kernel Zip
4. Reboot and let Settle for ~10 minutes
5. Install Trickster MOD from the App Store for access to all of the options.
6. Change the settings to something other than INTERACTIVE (Especially if you run it with BFQ it will give you the worst screen lag ever). Then enable "Set at Boot" and push the check mark button at the top right hand portion of the screen or else you will lose your configurations.
7. Enjoy!!!
Error Reporting
I am always open to hearing about your errors although just telling me something went wrong without giving me details does me absolutely no good. So here are my expectations if you do want to complain about something not working:
1. Please list the ROM you are using,
2. The IO scheduler you were using
3. The CPU governor you were using
4. The CPU frequency range (192/1080 etc)
5. What you have done to attempt to fix it.
6. If you were able to simulate it again using the same settings.
7. Anything else you think is applicable to the issue
I would also hope that you would consider trying some of the following things to fix your issue before you ever report it because most of these things will fix the problem without me even having to change a thing.
1) Fix file permissions using a program that does a thorough job. I recommend using the fix file permissions in ROM manager because it is the best I’ve seen. For the record, I don’t actually use ROM manager for anything other than fixing permissions. Please consider trying this first because it tends to fix most of the FC/RR/SOD errors you might have.
2) Make a backup and install a clean version of the ROM you are running and see if you are still experiencing those same errors. You may have corrupted files if you’ve been dirty flashing.
3) If that doesn’t solve it, redownload and reflash, maybe something got corrupted but it still managed to flash. This happens sometimes and I can cause you grief.
4) For advanced users pull a logcat. I know not everyone knows how to do this but you can learn if you check out this OP or other ones like it

Hey Everyone,
For those of you who haven't heard I've been using "Koding" as my new kernel build server. Space is very limited with my free account but if you'd like you can click here and signup to help me get more free space. You'll also find that you can learn how to code just about anything (java, html5, php, to name a few). Many developers and adding tutorials and sharing their projects so if you are interested in that stuff make sure to sign up!
I've made two nightlies this morning which need testing. For those of you who were around for my 4.3 you might recall that somewhere along the line there was suddenly a curious SD Card Mounting/Unmounting that would happen after unlocking the phone. I had made so many commits in such a short time frame that I was unsure which one caused the error. I've gone back and added my top three performance improving commits from the questionable series to see if any of these three commits caused the error (I certainly hope they did not, I really hope it was caused by the LZ4 compression and not the performance boosters). Let me know if you see any problems as you use these nightly kernels!!! Remember these are for 4.4 ONLY!!!
Here are the links!

Cheers!

just to let you know i have not been getting the sd card error on the 4.4 uber
Signed up on Koding maybe you can teach me a thing of two (^o^)

BETA2 For 12/16 CM Nightlies and Beyond
Hey Everyone!
Well Team Chopsticks finally got video working although from what I can tell all of the work was actually all done by our very own @bryan2894 who went and found the patches that fixed the video!!! Great work @bryan2894!!! Part of this video fix included the kernel so here is an updated kernel with the patch needed. This kernel will only have fixed video on CM 12/16 nightlies and beyond. I bet it might work with earlier but you might as well update if you are a CM user so what's the point?
Anyhow, enjoy the updates!
Cheers!
Cl3Kener
PS since I know someone will ask, This actually does work great with the 12-14 HellKat build since it also has working video because we grabbed the patches from CM before they were merged.

Question: for official CM 11 update, i am currently using recovery CWM 6.0.3.7, because CM officialssaid so or phone will run into problems. but this kernel requires TWRP, i am wondering can i update CM 11 nighlies with the given TWRP recovery?
Please advise. Thanks.

That stuff is nonsense. The latest TWRP in fact is much better for this phone and flashing this or any other ROM here IMHO. I tested both CWM and TWRP on more than one occasion and results were identical. For me TWRP is also much easier to get into when you have an issue with a new ROM booting and you need to get into recovery via the power & volume up buttons.

I've flashed CM11 (my builds) about 10 times in the last month and have been using TWRP 2.6.1.0 since Sept. without issue.
Just don't try to flash TWRP from within GooManager, either flash from recovery or use Odin (best).
Since the video recording is working now I moved to CM11 using the @Almite (Rom) and @Cl3Kener (Uber 2GHz kernel) and I can tel you this is solid Rock combination in performance and stability even those are still in Nightlies/Beta so thank you all for this amazing team work...
Is it possible to add the BLN notification (I know some don't like it but usually this the feature can be disabled)
Thanks
The first time I made AdaMax was for the Chinese Galaxy S4 Duos GT-I9502. I ported Adam kernel and added more tweaks from other kernels like Persus, halaszk (5420). After several releases, I decidec to spread this kernel to more models. So I built the v8 for both Chinese and international GT-I9500. This thread it for hosting it.
This week, i successed compiling for the s4 with 5410 cpu. As we know GT-I9500, GT-I9502 and SCH-I959. They share almost same compiling configure and their own ramdisk. So I compile them together with almost same features.
At last, I have to make following declarations, AGAIN:
Take your own risk and responsibility on flashing this kernel. I am not responsibale for any loss of your hardware, software, data or warranty.
Read this OP from start to finish before flashing the packages or asking any questions. There is a Q&A section. Any questions already answered will be ignored by me and may be insulted by other members. So save your your keyboard, your time and your data traffic.
No ETAs.
Don't ask me to make this kernel for a specific rom. There are basically only two kinds of roms, AOSP and TouchWiz. So I compile for these two kinds with differnet SDK levels. If it dose not work on some rom, don't blame me and ask me to adapt the rom for it.
If you found a new version, but its download link is not directly showed in this OP, that means it is a version I don't think good enough to be a release. So take your own risk to use it. I will remember your feedback, try to make changes, but not respond with posts.
Thanks to a lot of people, I will add their names here... @wanam, [email protected], @Dees_Troy and Team Win, @AndreiLux
As my habit, I always put the download link first:
v15: https://github.com/maxfu/android_kernel_samsung_exynos5410/releases/tag/v15-9500
File name instruction:
touchwiz: for most used international GT-I9500 with exynos5410 cpu.
aosp: for AOSP KitKat 4.4 roms like CM, ramdisk comes from CM 11
kk442: kernel for KitKat 4.4.2
jb43: kernel for Jelly Bean 4.3
jb442: kernel for Jelly Bean 4.2.2
lite: live version is built with stock zImage and maxfour initrd. It has limited maxfour features. And sometimes selinux f**ks up the STweaks.
boot: system kernel package
recovery: recovery kernel package
kernel: system + recovery combined kernel package
*.tar/*.tar.md5: Odin package
*.zip: CWM/TWRP recovery package
example.1: boot-i9500-aosp kk442-v10f1tc.zip means a system kernel image CWM/TWRP flashable package for international I9500 with TouchWiz KitKat 4.4.2 roms.
example.2: kernel-i9500-aosp-kk442-v10f1tc.tar.md5 means a system recovery combined odin package for international I9500 with AOSP roms like CM.

I open the issue section for the source code, you can report problems here. Please provide at least version aosp/touchwiz jb/kk.
https://github.com/maxfu/android_kernel_samsung_exynos5410/issues/new
The source code:
You can
git clone https://github.com/maxfu/android_kernel_samsung_exynos5410.git
git clone https://github.com/maxfu/initramfs_samsung_galaxy_s4.git
git clone https://github.com/maxfu/toolchains.git
use the build.sh for exynos in toolchains/script ro build the kernel.
you need to su before build the kernel cause the ramdisk belongs to root.
Since this is a side product of my kernel for GT-I9502 which is the phone I am currently using. I don't actually test this build for GT-I9500, so I really need feedback. And please backup your rom before using this.
Features:
Built with OSRC KK 4.4 source and ramdisk, now it should work on many 4.4 roms.
Contains most features from Adam kernel including Wolfson Audio Control. For I9502 which uses yamaha sound chip, Wolfson Audio Control will be hidden automatically since it does not work.
From v10, the kernel is renamed to MaxFour due to wamam's request.
Kernel + Recovery release at one time, recovery based on TWRP with EFS_GSM (for Chinese Duos devices) support.
Compiled with GCC 4.8 toolchain from Google NDK r9c.
Packed in LZMA format to make smaller images.
Native exfat support based on OSRC exfat source code.
UCI script for STweaks and may be others.
Unlocked some hidden CPU frequency: 2.0GHz, 1.9GHz, 1.8GHz, 1.7GHz, 800MHz, 700MHz for big cores; 1.3GHz, 1.2GHz, 400MHz,
300MHz, 200MHz for little cores. Frequencies over stock like 1.7GHz for big cores and 1.3G for little cores are implemented in tc*/overclock version.
Added more STweaks settings which are not included in Adam kernel, including CPU power management, Tools with reboot options, GPU settings, CPU governor.
Android logger is compiled as standanlone module, so user can disable it completely to save power.
Tc/overclock version contains Persus dvfs for GPU with 700MHz overclock, thanks to AndreaLux.
Built-in Seeder entropy generator to provide lag reduction although it is not significant as it was on Gingerbread.
Built-in busybox with auto-installation.
Optimize on ram.
Added several I/O Schedulers including ZEN and ROW.
Built-in dynamic eMMC read ahead
Built-in Asynchronous Fsync
Compiled with compile flag for Cortex-A15 and NEON
Disable KNOX and SELinux when booting, selinux will be set to permissive with the boot command line.
init.d support.
A lot of changes and fixes.
Disabled a lot of rarely used devices support.
PS:
*1. TC means turbocharged, so it is overclock
Change Log:
v15:
Rebuild with GT-I9502 CHN KK Opensource from OSRC.
Upgrade KSM (Kernel Samepage Merging) to uksm (Ultra KSM) which has Super quiet CPU usage, Ultra scan speed and High CPU efficiency.
Support init.d.
Lower CPU frequencies presented in previous versions, voltage options coming soon.
GPU tweak presented in previous versions.
STweaks cueerntly unsupported, coming soon.
mDNIe and Sound Control coming soon.
AOSP support coming soon.
v14:
Upgrade kernel to 3.4.10
Implement AES-ARM and SHA1-ARM crypto algorithm
Rollback selinux related script to v11
v13:
Rebuilt source tree from HNC6 source.
Most features kept
INT, MIF, MEMIO settings removed, these should not be touched
Should be much better than v12
Fixed video bug for AOSP, I think it is fixed
Upgraded AOSP initramfs, may fix the modem/signal problem
Set ro.secure and ro.adb.secure to 0
Camera lag? Less.
Upgraded busybox
v12:
I don't want to talk about it, this version is totally a rubbish
v11:
STweaks: Added Chinese UI, works on Chinese system, when the language is set to other ones, English UI will show. An templete is provided for more translations.
STweaks: Added boost mode in the Misc tab. The boost mode is found when the news of Samsung cheating on benchmark softwares came out. When a benchmark software is detacted running, the boost mode will be on to allow higher temprature and faster CPU scaling. Simply turn on this mode will not provide any visable change, it should be used with CPU, GPU, INT, MIF clock operations.
STweaks: Added control for Internal, Memory Interface and Memory I/O.
STweaks: Added a button to switch the USB mode to Mass Storage Mode, which is classical mode before GingerBread got out dated.
STweaks: Added a CPU wake lock switch.
STweaks: Added instructiuon of Sound Control being not available on models other than I9500.
STweaks: Added instruction of GPU voltage control being not available on non-tc versions.
Kernel: Added a odin mode. Now we can reboot to download mode with "adb reboot odin". The original commands still work.
v10f1:
initial build for XDA users.
Q&A:
I did not reserve a post for this section, so I will put the Q&A here in the OP.
Q: Which package should I use? A: boot is what you need. recovery is just a side product.
Q: Which version I should use? A: Please the "File name instruction" section in the OP, you will find the answer.
Q: Do I need to wipe the data after I flash? A: Well I don't think you need, but due to some report, wiping data can solve certain problems after flashing this kernel. So whatever you like, please backup data before you flash or wipe.
Q: Which rom does this kernel support? A: I can't tell, please refer to the File name instruction section, if you rom is not mentioned there, it is not supported?
Q: Does this support MIUI? A: Official MIUI is based on touchwiz 4.2.2. So please refer to Q2,3,4.
Q: There is no OC in tc version. A: In the init.rc there is a script limiting the CPU frequency to 1.6GHz, so you should use STweaks to unlock it. Please open /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_uV_table, if there is 2000 1900 1800 and 1700, then there is OC, just unlock it.
Q: Some app FC? A: Usually FCs are not due to the kernel, check the rom first, and settings etc, the kernel should be the last reason, cause it just provide the bridge between the system hal and hardware. Report the fc, I will take a look, but I can not say I can fix it.
Q: Battery life? A: It is due to your habit, just like driving a car, a Toyota Prius can use 10L gas if driven by somebody like Michael Schumacher. As my test, due to my habit with non tc version, it is better than stock.
Q: Do I need STweaks to run the kernel? A: The kernel can run without it, but with it you can have more options.
Q: STweaks shows "unextected error"? A: This situation usually happens at the first time STweaks starts, it is OK. Just go on using STweaks.
Q: STweaks FCs. A: Well this sometimes is due to the kernel, sometimes. Here is something you can do: Wipe the STweaks' data, remove /data/.maxfour and /data/.adamax, check the superuser software and give STweaks root access. And yes you need root access. At last, use normal version.
Q: Auto root? A: Use the CWM zip package. And I would take it out soon. Sometimes it breaks root.
Q: Not actually auto-root with v13? A: Yes, v13 will put a wizard like app which will lead you download SuperSU, only when your rom is not rooted.
Q: Conservative governor stock at certain frequency? A: Don't use it, only ondemand governor is optimized for 5410 with big.little cores.
Q: Can you add something? You must do something? Please do something? A: I take advice, but not demand. The reason is simple: I make this kernel due to my interests, not purchase orders. I am not funded for doing this. If the advice is good, I'd take it. If it is just a personal preference, I have to consider it.
Q: Got very low volume of sound? A: Use stweaks, I9500 has wolfson sound control.
Q: Video color is not correct, got blur faces. A: v13 should have this issue fixed.
Q: No internal storage access permission. A: I will make a workaroung later. For now, remount it with rw option through adb.
Q: Random reboot. A: Well, it exists, I admit. I don't know why. I will look for the reason.
Q: After flashing, the phone won't boot. A: Well, I can't guarantee that this kernel works everywhere. And please check if you are using the correct version.
Q: When is your next release? A: I don't know either.
Q: I flashed, it doesn't work. A: Well, it does not work. I don't know why cause it just don't work. I only answer information-rich questions. Questions like this is only a waster of your keyboard, your time and your data traffic. Please at least tell me which version and what rom you are using.
Q: Anything asked above. A: I will keep silence. Other people may insult for this.
Q: Why don't you answer/respond our questions? A: I am a employee, husband, father and son of someone other than XDA and you.

The first time I make AdaMax is for the Chinese Galaxy S4 Duos GT-I9502. I ported Adam kernel and added more tweaks from other kernels like Persus, halaszk (5420). After several releases, I decidec to spread this kernel to more models. So I built the v8 for both Chinese and international GT-I9500. This thread it for hosting it.
Thanks to a lot of people, I will add their names here...
As my habit, I always put the download link first:
https://github.com/maxfu/android_kernel_samsung_galaxy_s4/releases/tag/9500v8
The uploading is still on going...
Features:
Based on OSRC GT-I9500 JB Opensource Update4 source tree.
Contains most features from Adam kernel, so this kernel is called Adam + Max.
Kernel + Recovery release at one time, recovery based on TWRP with EFS_GSM (for Chinese Duos devices) support.
Compiled with GCC 4.8 toolchain from Google NDK r9c.
Packed in LZMA format, smaller images.
Native exfat supportbased on OSRC exfat source code.
UCI script for STweaks and may be others.
Unlocked some hidden CPU frequency: 2.0GHz, 1.9GHz, 1.8GHz, 1.7GHz, 800MHz, 700MHz for big cores; 1.3GHz, 1.2GHz, 400MHz,
300MHz, 200MHz for little cores.
Frequencies over stock are implemented in overclock (tc/turbocharged) version.
Added more STweaks settings from Adam kernel, including CPU power management, Tools, CPU settings, CPU governor.
Logger module is compiled as standanlone module, so user can disable it completely to save powew.
Overclock (tc/turbocharged) version contains Persus dvfs for GPU with 700MHz overclock, thanks to AndreaLux.
Disabled a lot of rarely used devices support.
Built-in Seeder.
Built-in busybox with auto-installation.
Optimize on ram.
Added several I/O Schedulers including ZEN and ROW.
Built-in dynamic eMMC read ahead
Compiled with compile flag for Cortex-A15 and NEON
Disable KNOX and SELinux when booting
init.d support.
A lot of changes and fixes.

I kept the feature, so it should show up in STweaks on I9500. I am using 9502 which does not have the feature so I can not test it. When I compile for 9500, sound control is enabled.

Well it is hard to say. If you use the normal version, it should be battery friendly. The tc version is overclocked. Due to my 3DMark result, the overclock version maxied out the First and Second stage tests.

Some Proposals
1. Auto Install Stweaks
2. Clearly describe CPU Options which one for big cores and which for little cores
3. Don't lock GPU Frequency at 532MHz as i see by default ... maybe more relaxed 177-532 settings?
4. SELinux is set to Permissive by default ... maybe set as Disabled?
and maybe some very useful Insecure version please?
ro.secure=0
ro.adb.secure=0
(computer translation)
Hi, I already flashed Adam Kernel on my S4. Can I simply flash this Kernel on recovery or do I need to do something else?

Heh, I managed to screw up my MultiROM setup.
Fusion LP was a tertiary ROM. I decided to flash this kernel against it. Almost 10 minutes and it never finished flashing. TWRP was also frozen.
On restart none of the ROMs would boot. Trying to reselect Fusion in MultiROM would fail and freeze/lock TWRP. Seems the partition with Fusion got corrupted.
Got tired of pulling the battery so wound up restoring primary ROM and will start over with MultiROM.
Just one of those things probably unrelated to the kernel itself.
I should have at least backed up the secondary ROM. Oh well. ?

I'm using it with Fusion as primary ROM with no problems. But flashing fusion itself takes close to ten minutes to flash, and the progress bar shows nothing until it's done. I was already on fusion, then flashed RIN and Multirom.
Never mind.
Working well with Euphoria.
Thanks for a great AOSP kernel

I changed my primary SkyDragon ROM then reflashed kexec kernel and multirom. Discovered my CM11 was still there (cool) then reflashed Fusion.
Flashed RIN kernel but this time I waited. It took much longer than the ROM install.
But all is good. Fusion seems to be running great with RIN.
Thanks.

Kernel is working great
I've used this Kernel on about 3 different LP ROM's (clean flash) and on each of them, the pull down menu appears and freezes after ending calls whether its being made or receiving them. If you are able to get out of the menu, the pull down no longer works. You must reboot for everything to return to normal...
Nothing says great batterylife except when it tells me 1 day 19 hours and hasnt been on a charger since 8 am
Nice kernel exelent battery and no complains for now ?
Been off charger all day with light use and its still going strong

Done a few clean flashes since I started using this kernel but I'm not having this problem...
Overview:
This is a custom kernel based on Omni sources for our legendary i9000. This is only for 5.1.1/6.0.1 roms and no other version of android will be suppported
It works on any Omni based 5.1.1/6.0.1 rom.
>The zip you will download is flashable via recovery.
>> Use devil kernel manager or NStools to edit the kernel settings.

- Bigmem, up to 430mb
- CMA (MM only for now)
- Kernel compressed with XZ
- Compressed initramfs
- Dynamic page writeback
- Dynamic Fsync
- Custom ARM & INT voltages
- Voltages fixed for more stable OC
- Selectable GPU OC (not working properly for now)
- Fast charge
- BLX
- Live OC
- FULL O3 optimisations

- SquashFS support (module)
- EXfat support (module)
- 720p patched bigmem libs
- Built from the latest Omni source
- Built using custom Cortex-A8 optimized UBERTC 5.3 toolchain of @Cl3Kener
Todo:- Backport more things from higher linux versions and fix remaining conflicts ...
- Fix GPU OC ... Well we have live OC, not worth the time i guess.
- Make CGROUP_TIMER_SLACK work
- GPU driver to DDK [email protected]
- Make a better (and more fancy) updater script
- Fixing the remaining issues [...]
What I wont do : - Enable TV out
- Upgrade linux version

Assuming you used the kernel source (github.com/omni) to port to the vibrant, you won't have any options other than bigmem. The source code linked there doesn't have things such as Fast Charge, etc.
However, you can see if support for them is there by manually putting a "1" in the file /sys/kernel/fast_charge/force_fast_charge
(ie echo 1 > /sys/kernel/fast_charge/force_fast_charge from a terminal/adb shell).
Also, look out for selinux issues. If selinux is in enforcing mode, the Devil Manager may or may not be able to access the sysfs paths. Run "setenforce 0" to put it to permissive mode.
Speaking of source code, @Coldwindofnowhere have you uploaded the complete kernel source you used somewhere? I'd be curious to see it. Thanks for taking this project on!

I didnt use the source code to do anything just replaced the boot image with that of vibrant and it seemed to boot up just fine and i could switch between smartass v2, and other addition. the only thing cant change the bigmem option over xl.

Ah, ok. I could be wrong, but I think if you replaced the boot.img with one from the Vibrant, then you're not even using the kernel from here. Weird that you still had the smartassv2 option...

That's weird, i haven't changed anything concerning the audio in the kernel. You're using it on a vibrant right ? This might be the problem. I'm gonna try to reproduce this bug on my i9000 and see ....

Hi oneplus2 people!
This is my modified kernel with some kernel optimizations and some compiler optimizations.
The goal of abyss is to achieve improved performance/battery without the cost of stability.
I will not be overhauling this project with changes that are not logical to add.
This kernel should work on the latest 7.x.x roms like CyanogenMod.
It might work on other roms, but there will be little support for them.
How does one achieve this?
- build kernel with an optimized toolchain
- use compiler optimization flags (experimental)
- remove redundant code
- improve existing code with more efficient code
- etc. (most are not so easy to explain)
This kernel is built with mdalexca's latest UBER GCC 4.9.
Is there actually a performance improvement?
With all the changes added up, there should be. Whether or not one notices the difference is another thing.
For those interested in how the kernel optimizations will benefit/work, please look at my github source and read the commit messages.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Is this a custom kernel?
I was asked this question once, and it posed as a real good question. I do not consider abyss to be a "custom kernel" per se, but more so as a modified kernel. The patches and features that go into this kernel do not make it customizable. What they do is improve what has already been implemented. It is like swapping a car's engine for a better one rather than just adding LED flooring lights and fancy car mats.
Can you add [this] and [that] feature?
Something I pride myself with this kernel is that it does not have a bunch of random, useless features or patches mashed into it. Everything put into this kernel is thought out and tested. I see a lot of works being made popular because it has [this] and [that] feature when really, it's nothing revolutionary. As a matter of fact, most things added to any kernel will not make it 5x better than any other kernel. Most of the time, simple is better; and in this case it definitely is!
For me
Thanks! I'll give it a go.
Giving it a go
Yess! Been waiting for this ever since i saw your OP2 repo!
Does this kernel install on a f2fs formatted system?

You can thank @dsst22 for helping with testing, or else you would have waited a very long time :silly:

I have not made any file system changes to the kernel. If the stock CM kernel supports, then this one will too.
Is kcal support present..??

unfortunately no.
good to see new kernel for our device, thanks and good luck

You can probably see how much I've grown as a developer since then too :angel:
Works on a f2fs filesystem based rom. Testing it now...
Edit: No obvious bugs at the moment. Is it possible to implement some sort of charging control. The USB charging speed is super slow (on both this kernel and stock CM kernel).

Nice!! thank you!!
Pretty smooth haven't found any bugs. Love the simplicity.
I can't imagine what it would be like with a little over clock.

I trust the engineers that designed the chip to choose a safe maximum clock speed. Here's a pretty good article on the risks vs benefits, which outline some strong points.
But, if I were to add it, I would set the max value at boot to stay as stock values; so I'll leave it up to @dsst22 to decide.
I'll try this out for you dude. Impressive what you've done.
