[Kernel] [CM9 final] honeyx 7up 3.0.x kernel [Silky Smooth & Battery] 02.09.2013 - Samsung Galaxy W I8150

ZOHAN makes your hair...emmm Kernel silky smooth .
Well, since it became popular to add something like " for better battery life" I´m renaming my Kernel into Silky Smooth now
There are 2 versions now. First one is the pure kernel and the secound one with Turbo Boost included. (Credits are going to delta-roh)
Orginal thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37905307
SGW discussion thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2400120
Created with stability and battery life in mind. Each modification was tested separately, so everytime I added a tweak or a new feature, I tested the new kernel for a couple of days before adding the next one.
So what it has included:
- UV and OC options
- lowered WiFi voltage
- lowered LCD voltage
- slightly lowered standby / deepsleep voltage
- Battery life eXtender
- Fixed 100% battery notification after charger unplug
- 378MB RAM
- ROW scheduler as default scheduler
- Lulzactive Governor as default governor
- tweaked Lulzactive for battery life and smoothness
- added new frequency - 518MHz
- added new frequency - 633MHz
- added new frequency - 902MHz
- Screen Off frequency set to 518 MHz max. in Lulcactive Governor
- Dynamic Read-Ahead
- Dynamic Dirty Page Writeback
- CK3 tweaks (Credits to Con Kolivas) - adapted by Christopher, hurtsky and me
- LowMemoryKiller management of not killable processes - credits to christopher
- with and without Turbo Boost Mod
- no other compilation tweaks just to make the list longer
I didn´t test this kernel for how long it can last in StandBy / DeepSleep max., just for stability, how well the tweaks are working and how well the consumption is dropping in DeepSleep, but since the results are very similar to the ones by using 2.6 kernel, they also should be quite similar in this kernel. However with the new added 518MHz it will consume less in Screen Off Mode if the phone is active. So for example while making calls.
The max. Screen Off frequency is the maximum frequency your device can clock to while the screen is turned off. It´s a kind of limitation to lower the consumption.
other suggestions:
- enable KSM
- enable 16bit transparency
- disable CPU rendering
- greenify your apps
If you follow these suggestions, your ROM should run absolutely smooth without the need for other tweaks.
To use Battery Life eXtender:
Use RootExplorer and go to: '/sys/class/misc/batterylifeextender'. Change the value in 'charging_limit' for example to 90 (default 100). This will set a limit for the capacity to which the battery will be charged. So in this example the battery will be charged to 90%.
----------------------------------------------------
After flashing the kernel whipe your cache and dalvik cache and fix permissions.

Just in case you are getting random reboots with this kernel this is because your device doesn´t like the lowered voltages for DeepSleep /Standby. In this case use the kernel below insteed. It´s the same kernel but just without this tweak.

This is really heavy usage, so I´m not sure it will make a lot of difference even if you are undervolting. Most of time your screen is on and so the phone kept awake but it´s the backlight that is draining most.
It´s just there is no tweak for the backlight LEDs to make them consume less exept reducing the brightness, so may I ask if you feel any difference even under such a heavy usage?
I doubt that as the kernel is tweaked for Deepsleep / Standby but will of course consume as much as other kernels under full load.

Ok., let me say that I have use another kernel before with same time testing (about 3 hours and 30 minutes) and my battery drain so fast.
Honestly this kernel is good for battery saver because I have problem with my battery health..

this kernel compatible with cm9 rc2 or rc 3?
or use the EOL version one ?

It´s kernel 3.0.x so more likely for the EOL and as the title says it´s for CM9 final.

how much memory on this kernel?

For me it´s working well and I didn´t do any changes to it, so everything is like in the stock 3.0.82 kernel regarding this. It´s just you have to wait up to 15 minutes after activating GPS the first time after changing kernels to get a GPS fix.
I of course tested GPS before launching this kernel. It took me a while to get the first GPS fix but after this it´s now fixing immediately. However If you are using Greenify and are hybernating your Google Services, this could be the reason for not being able to get a fix.
Btw, this has been already discussed in the CM9 bug report thread. There are also some solutions to get it working.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598056&highlight=gps&page=299
But I also suggest to not to hybernate Google Services in Greenify as some apps require it to get a GPS fix. Once the Google Services got greenyfied those apps can´t get a GPS fix, even if you restart Google Services. So in this case remove Google Services from the list in Greenify and restart your device.

Personally I´m using these:
Code:
Freq. mV
245760 775
368640 825
518400 900
768000 950
806400 975
1024000 1025
1113600 1050
1209600 1075
1305600 1100
1401600 1125
1516800 1175
1612800 1225
1708800 1275
1804800 1325
It will also run stable for me by reducing each by -25mV. Just added 25mV to each for more stability.

Thanks for the great kernel, I personally haven't noticed much of a difference on standby with wifi on, but there is quite a difference when you're using the device, thanks again! :good:

Thanks for the feedback. Well about WiFi this is another story. While testing the consumption with WiFi on I honestly couldn´t see any difference between running WiFi at stock voltage or by undervolting it the way all the kernel modders are doing it.
It looked to me like this tweak isn´t lowering the consumption like it expected to be. Therefore I applied some more tweaks you can´t find in the Commits to lower the consumption while WiFi is enabled. The difference is not huge, but now it indeed consumes a little bit less. Beside this my tweak is a dynamic one and depending on the signal strenght.

this kernel is really impress me,.fast and smooth and really better battery life especially the 3.0.x kernel.
i dunno if this is just me but i have to report this,.
sometimes my phone just turn off by itself when i'm using it, both 7up kernel are the same.
is there anyways to fix this?

Hm well I´m not sure. Would need to know your exact setup to better estimate this. Did you install both roms the prstine way? Are you using any other tweaks, mods, themes or scripts?
I´m using Arcos stock CM9. There I´m using Apex launcher and the only mods I did is disabling CPU rendering and replacing the SMS/MMS app with the modded one. Additionally I replaced the Clock App with one that offers a digital Clock widget and swapped the SDCards, but that´s all about it.
It´s of course possible the tweaks in the kernel are somehow interacting with other tweaks, mods, themes or scripts. That´s why i cherrypicked all the tweaks I added into this kernel and skipped the ones that were causing troubles when combined together.

pristined as always,.
no mods, no themes, no tweaks and no scripts
only cm9 stock + 7up.
hmm..on 3.0.x got 2x turn off by itself. 1. while using Path, 2. while using Line..
i dont remember when my phone turned off when using 2.6..

Ok. I just forgot to ask if you are undervolting or orverclocking your device. However I will build you a test kernel without the slightly lowered voltages for Deepsleep and Standby because this is what comes into my mind what could cause you the random reboots. Kernel 2.6 has less tweaks than other kernels are having exept this one. In 3.0.82 kernel I tweaked them even a bit more. So maybe your device doesn´t like this.
I will PM you this test Kernel when I´m done, so hopefully we can narrow down this issue you are hiving.

Updated to V0.10
Code:
[B][U]v0.10[/U][/B]
- uppatched to 2.6.35.14
- reverted my unreleased changes of the disabling of samsung debugging, it breaks lo power mode and causes SOD's
- Misc config tweaks
- Misc compiler tweaks
[B][U]v0.08[/U][/B]
- Up patched to 2.6.35.13 source
- merged some changed with Da_G's skyrocket source to fix cpu1 hot-plugging
this shiould solve issues of users having min clock stuck at 384mhz and/or max
stuck.
- fixed vdd_tables, system tuner will be supporting my kernel in up coming releases for this
system tuner, should no longer cause issues. as the hotplug fix solved this
[B][U]v0.06[/U][/B]
- Found tome Carrier IQ **** in tty consoles, removed it
sneaky sneaky...
- patched for call recording <--- DERP apparently it works with out my patch LOL
[B][U]v0.05.6[/U][/B]
- redid source tree from scratch
- Switched on OTG config options again (had them shut off)
- Battery issues resolved
- minor tweaks to autogrouping
- set kernel HZ to 300 for a smoother more responsive feel
- minor tweaks to lag free and smartass
- undervolts have been tested stable by many users and are in this release
[B]- PLEASE UNINSTALL SYSTEM TUNER AND CLEAR DALVIK CACHE THIS RELEASE[/B]
[B][U]v0.05.2[/U][/B]
- loosened up lag free so its not so twitchy at low freqs and ramping up and down constantly
- undervolted all freqs a fair bit
- added smartassv2 back in *Please TEST, i think i have solved the hang at max freq on wake*
- probably forgetting something else i messed with
[B][U]v0.05[/U][/B]
- sourced a multiprossesor service that actually wasnt ****ed and added to kernel
- turned on multi prossesor service and set it to shut off the second core on screen off
or when not needed, and only turn back on when needed
- Patched in BLN *thanks to romanbb*
- Patched services.jar to allow bln to notify you for most notifications from apps now
eg: gtalk, mms, sms app and ect..
- spiffy new boot logo ;)
[B][U]v0.04.1[/U][/B]
- removed smartassv2, its useless in its semi-working state, causing battery drain. I will figure out what its up to.
[B][U]v0.04[/U][/B]
- Lowered stock voltages a bit to get some better battery
- Fixed (i think) smartassv2 ramping up to max clock and then neglecting to ramp back down on wake from sleep
- Recommend using lagfree :)
[B][U]v0.03.2[/U][/B]
- fixed scheduler settings for new min freq, causing me SOD's on screen wake with notification
[B][U]v0.03.1[/U][/B]
- disabled 192MHz in the clock table so users cannot select it and cause a sleep of death situation.
- Default min freq now 384MHz
[B][U]v0.03[/U][/B]
- added in BFQ scheduler if users choose to use it you can use system tuner or other favored apps to change from CFS
- Added SmartassV2 and Iterative schedulers
- Tweaked SmartassV2 for our device
- Added ability to change voltage on the cpus with vdd_tables
[B][U]
v0.02:[/U][/B]
- 1.8ghz lag fixed ;)
- Autogrouping of scheduler added
- lagfree cpu scheduler added, with fully working sysfs interface to edit settings not set by default but recommended! its TITS!
- optimized build flags
- removed sysfs for vdd tables, we have not got it working yet. no worries you shouldn't need it yet ;)
- kernel compression changed for much faster boot times
[U][B]v0.01[/B][/U]
CK3+ Patch Set (Thanks to fellow Team Synergy member Ziggy471 for backporting)
OC 1.8 (Thanks to Romanbb's source tree)
Global UV Tables (Thanks to Romanbb's source tree)
All Debug shut off except samsung debugging (needed)
LZMA compressed
Carrier branded boot splash removed
init.d support
Voltage Control
You can control it via shell/init.d scripts as follows
To over volt ALL frequencies by 10000 uv:
Code:
echo "+10000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_table/vdd_levels
To under volt ALL frequencies by 10000 uv:
Code:
echo "-10000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_table/vdd_levels
To set a specific frequency (ie 1.8 GHz) with a specific voltage (ie 1.25 volts) ]
Code:
echo "1836000 1250000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levels
Use SetCPU as a gui or sysfs to control CPU freq

no, its based off a compleetly different source tree (as the verry first sentense in my post says), i have stripped all debugging possible, its using ck3+ patch sets not bfs 404 and my stock voltages and clock tables differ.
its also a few mb smaller then juggs and has all boot animations stripped from the ramfs
what did you set stock clock to? i'll be the guinea pig and try it out for tmobile user

Thanks for the response. You answered alot more than just my questions I'm sure. I thought for v0.2 roman used the same source. Idk
Is this uv'd as much as jugs v0.1? My phone runs like a champ at 1.8 on that and battery is excellent so that is the voltage I'd like to stick with if possible

Ive been using on-demand exclusively @ 1.7GHz and have had zero issues. Although i don't put any faith in quadrant scores i was getting 4500+
I'm going to be working with Ziggy471 on lagfree and smartass v2 govs soon and see if i can get them to cooperate better with dual core setups.

its the clock rate, 1.8 kicks the **** out of my device too so i stick with 1.7
i tried increasing the vdd but it didn't help much, if at all and i was not satisfied with wasting the voltage for 100mhz. with 1.8 2d accel really suffers too in quad i experienced.

Hello there, we meet again. Haha! I was roaming around and I've finally sticked with CM9RC2, since it's already in its release state and much more stable compared to CM!0. The function works and everything seems to be running smoothly- YES IT FINALLY WORKS after I went pristine. Hahaa. I'm quite happy with my phone right now. WAYYY faster and much more reliable.
ROM : Indroid REMICS v6
kernel : my own kernel with lulzactive 245-1024MHz

why ?
i believe CM has been tweaked by arco so i don't need to tweak some more

hadi! I was wondering, I tried your kernel once... twice... Wasn't sure if there was too much tweaks in my phone or whatever the problem might be, when I used 1.2, my phone goes into sleep state when I locked device, and when I wake it, it took quite a few seconds for the device screen to show up... Actually I'm a mass kernel flasher so I'd really wanna try your kernel too. Is your lulzactive 245-1024MHz settings battery friendly?

ERM... Actually, no. PMR has some very very nice tweaks and mods that just reduces lag.[Not significantly but quite nice]
*[Smooth]|[Powerful]|[WONDERFUL]*
ROM: SlimBean 3.1.0 by camcory
Kernel: forfivo's v2 (smartassv2 - sio - 245MHz/1401MHz)
Tweaks/Mods: JellyBOOM V2, Seeders APK, Disable CPU Rendering, Disable Surface Dithering
For the ROM, I prefer SlimBean because of its size, with JellyBOOM, Seeders and forfivo's maybe it only takes 80-90 MB's compared to any other ROM. So for a stable, slow connection (around 20-30kB/s) it's fairly fast enough to download.
About the kernel and the tweaks/mods: try it yourself.

I used SlimBean once, the fluidity is actually better than Arco's CM10 by default. But I'm not sure if its my device or any other reasons, it consumes battery quite quickly when I underclock it. Nothing much to be said about forfivo's kernel. Been loving it since ICS v1.

Hey guys. I tried the MIUI rom once. But its quite laggy when i installed many apps. Does anyone know any kernel or tweaks that is suitable with the rom for a better performance?
Thanks
Rom : cm9 rc2

Certain Tweaks when used together tends to clash and gives negative effect.
And if those apps you installed will run on background it tends to get laggy.
I use only Seeders and Disable CPU rendering.
I use forfivo's kernel because hadi's version have problem running on my device.
Until hadi fix the bigmem bug on external sd. I'd stick to forfivo.

[Kernel] [CM9 - RC2 & RC3] honeyx 7up 2.6.35 kernel [for better battery life]

Due to some requests via PM´s I decided to make my kernel finally public, but remember:
This kernel is a personal kernel for my private use, so it´s only containing the tweaks I´m also really using
It´s the older 2.6.35 kernel basing on latest 2.6.35 sources from Arco, so only use it with Arcos CM9 RC2 or RC3 or a custom ROM with 2.6.35 kernel
This kernel is not filled with a lot of governors and schedulers, but only the ones I´m also personally using.
I have made this kernel because non of the custom kernels worked stable for me in the past, even at stock voltages. With this kernel I´m able to run at extreme Undervolting rock solid.
So this kernel was created with stability and battery life in mind. Each modification was tested separately, so everytime I added a tweak or a new feature, I tested the new kernel for a couple of days before adding the next one.
So why I decided to tweak this older kernel rather than going with 3.x kernel?
- Because this kernel is giving me a much better battery life than the 3.x kernel, is running rock solid and also because I don´t really need the new features added into 3.x kernel.
So what it has included:
- UV and OC options
- lowered WiFi voltage
- lowered lcd voltage
- slightly lowered standby / deepsleep voltage
- Battery life extender
- Fixed 100% battery notification after charger unplug
- 377MB RAM
- NO-OP scheduler as default scheduler
- Lulzactive governor as default governor
- tweaked Lulzactive for battery life and smoothness
- added 518, 633 and 902 MHz (new)
- screen off frequency set to 518 MHz max.(new)
- some more voltage tweaks
- no other compilation tweaks just to make the list longer
With this kernel and a new battery my SGW can last up to 7 days in standby. This is without WiFi and Mobile Data. With the stock kernel I got 3-5 days. It´s also working absolutely stable and smooth for me without any issues.
So if you run into some issues that are/were also discussed i the CM9 Bug report thread, don´t blame me for them.
other suggestions:
- enable KSM
- enable 16bit Dithering
- disable CPU rendering
- greenify your apps
If you follow these suggestions, your ROM should run absolutely smooth without the need for other tweaks.
To use Battery Life eXtender:
Use RootExplorer and go to: '/sys/class/misc/batterylifeextender'. Change the value in 'charging_limit' for example to 90 (default 100). This will set a limit for the capacity to which the battery will be charged. So in this example the battery will be charged to 90%.
----------------------------------------------------
After flashing the kernel whipe your cache and dalvik cache and fix permissions.
Just as a note. Should you encounter the white screen bug in some apps, this is because you whiped the cache in CWM Recovery after flashing the kernel. To fix this go into settings -> apps and delete data and cache of those specific apps.
Credits are going to:
- Arco (for his great work and sources)
- educk (for helping me doing the first steps)
- Christopher83 (for his great commits)
- ivendor (for his tweaks)
- Ezekeel (for Battery Life eXtender)
----------- 18.08.2013 -----------
- added frequencies
- incrased RAM
- lowered screen off frequency in Lulzactive
- some voltage finetunning

I have tested this before with rc2 and I have to say battery life was very significantly longer compared to hurtsky 2.5 + QAsR v2.3. However, the white screen issue persisted in 2 of the apps I used the most, namely boat browser and Gmail so I have opted out again. But if you guys don't care about white screen, do give this kernel a try
Yeah, kernel 2.6 is always better battery life... i recomended it
- screen off frequency set to 768 MHz

What mean of that ?
is we get trun off the screen it auto lock on 768Mhz ? it's not deepsleep any way CMIIW

This is the max frequency the clock might rise to if the screen is off but for example an app or a service awakes the phone from deepsleep. So it will not drain so much the battery if the phone gets awake for some reason and if you undervolt your cpu, you can reduce the consumption for such a case even more.
This is preset in the Lulzactive governor, which Christopher83 fixed to make this working, so it´s only related to this governor, which is also my default governor.
So when in screenoff the phone only maximum can use CPU clock at 768Mhz
Yeah i get it. .thx for explain it
I think arco might be able to help you fix the white screen. Long back skull kernel experienced the same and acro helped him to fix it.

Uhm, well I´m not sure this is exactly the same because Keff (Woohooo..) is modding the 3.x kernel for CM10. But thanks for the suggestion. I will aks Keff first to not to bother Arco in the first place. It will be for sure interesting what caused it for him.
Just to clarify some things about the white screen bug. The one I described in my first post is not the real white screen bug, but only what happens to some apps after whiping the cache in CWM Recovery. This can easily be fixed like described above and will not bother you anymore.
The real white screen bug came all of the sudden (without whiping anything before). So for example you opened facebook, everything was fine, but a few minutes later by relaunching facebook you got a white screen. The procedure to get rid of this was the same as I already mentioned but with the difference it happened again after a while.
So well I have had this issue with facebook too in the past, but it´s gone and now even not happening after whiping the cache in CWM Recovery. It´s not gone because I updated the rom (still using RC2), but because facebook updated their app.
Edit:
I already found what you was talking about. It´s called the white noise issue where you get a white screen by turning the screen on, so it´s not the same.

Mind you: This is battery saving rom. It is meant to have low game performance. It MUST have a lower gaming performance than those v3.0 kernels. If you want gaming, this is not for you.

Yes, this is a battery saving kernel, but why should it have low gaming performance? Just because it´s optimized for low consumption in standby and because you can undervolt it? It´s like you were comparing an older Pentium4 against an Intel Atom CPU and saying the Atom must be faster because its newer. Or by comparing a Atom against a 286 CPU and saying the 286 will be faster than the Atom because the Atom is more battery friendly.
Sure, it´s not optimized to get the highest scores in benchmarks, but the games I´m playing once in a while are running totally smooth.
The newer releases of CM9 might be of course faster in games, but not just because of the 3.x kernel, but also because Arcos ocessionaly is updating the GPU drivers.

Thank you for correcting my ignorance. :laugh: Maybe I'll give the kernel a try and tell more about that
Honeyx, I hope you continue to develop and share this kernel in the future because I decided to start everything over from scratch because of your work here. I love this kernel. I get so much better battery life now. If you would ever consider adding Lionheart in the future, I would be very grateful. Is there any way to add Row or does it require kernel 3? Thanks again!

I may add some tweaks in the future, but this may take a while till I have some spare time to test them. About adding other governors...well I tested a lot of them but finally decided to use Lulzactive because it was the most battery friendly governor in the one hand and because there is also the Lulzactive app you can use to tweak it to your needs. So for example tweak it that way it behaves like for example Lionheart. I also tested the ROW scheduler but it wasn´t as stable as I presupposed to be. So the best compromise between stability and performance was to use the noop scheduler. It´s nearly as fast as the row but way more stable.

LoL. I´m quite sure with extreme undervolting you can still save some battery juice even while playing action games on this device. Beside this it´s not the CPU or GPU that consumes most, but the display and its backlight LED´s.
it is for battery saving but for me its not good to play with games cuz playing for like 40-60 minutes consume 60% battery ? lol
thats quite alot and might burnt up my battery life.

So did you thought it will consume just as much as being in deepsleep????????? The kernel is tweaked to consume less in deepsleep and in daily use but not to consume less in games. Beside this it´s not the CPU nor the GPU that consumes most, but the backlight LEDs in your screen. So even by undervolting and underclocking it will still drain a lot if playing games.
There is no and will not be a magical Kernel that is using witchcraft to reduce the consumption of the LEDs, exept someone compiles you a kernel which turns out the LEDs completely, if you can with a complete dark screen.

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
Powersaving: 0
Mpdecision: its gone so enabling it does nothing

[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
-initial 4.3 build
08.03.2013
-Fixed user voltage scaling
-[COLOR="Red"]Faux Sound[/COLOR] support for those who were asking for it
08.02.2013

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.

actually my setting were at 1512-1620 intellidemand/sio for testing, UV ive never had any problem and i didnt change the voltage setting , does this kernel support FastCharge ran Fastcharge toggle on trickster and it didnt stick for some reason, so far ive left everything the same 918-1620 with interactive/row and no issues, but ill keep testin

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.

Thanks for posting a thread on your kernels. FYI, your download links need tweaked.
Yes, a big thanks to @hawknest for coming to me to get kit Kat sense booting. You guys wouldn't have it right now if he did not start this excursion. It was fun and challenging to get it to work without proper source.
And even more thanks to @buckmarble for his know how. I wouldn't have been able to do this on my own.

I have used both of these kernels in the past couple weeks and have had great luck along with literally all day battery life and a benchmark of 28951!
Thanks for all your hard work and for providing it to the verizon HTC One community

I am happy to hear you are enjoying it! On a side note we have been seeing benchmarks upward of 31500 on the over clock version.
Awesome finally a custom kernel for GPE Running great so far for me, Im on Joel's GPE ROM. Noticed a small issue on the OC version, max CPU clock doesnt seem to stick, tried via trickster and shell, it keeps reverting to the max 2.1ghz, I was trying to set it a bit lower to 1.9ghz.

use the lock frequency feature in trickster right above the frequency selections to make them stick.
Sorry to be that guy but anyone have some recommended settings? I'm on the gpe overclocked version.
I flashed this last night on the Viper rom. Turned on smartmax governor and can already see a big improvement in battery life. Thanks to all involved.

To the kernel Dev(s) this is running great on hawks sprint ROM thanks!! I also have a question about the kernel. Is it possible to add this feature because I use zeroinfinity sound mod and this is suppose to compliment it...
poondog said:
Overclocked slimbus to max. This is as high as it goes, its 100% stable in testing with no negative impacts. Brings improvements all around for audio playback etc (thx to @ZeroInfinity and me )
.Some generic function optimizations (for faster kernel, better battery.. overall improvements to the code, from CAF)
.Add USB Fast Charge (Flar, Motley, Chad Froebel for original mod)
What is this slimbus OC about?
It will really start to take advantage of the hardware of this phone, as well as the audio improvements in the ERA sound mod. Hopefully it will open the door to more stuff that was previous restricted
Thanks! Have fun

I prefer battery savings and responsiveness, so using smartmax governor with row scheduler, -25000 under volt (this can probably go lower). OC min freq set to 216000. Heres some knowledgeable guesses I am testing out for the governor:
awake_ideal_freq = 486000
boost_freq = 1728000
ramp_up_step = 400000
suspend_ideal_freq = 378000
touch_poke_freq = 1728000
trying to lower the idle sleep frequencies, but boost up faster and higher when you are using the phone (touching button / screen)
see governor source comments if you want to learn more about the parameters https://github.com/Buckmarble/elite.../drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_smartmax.c?source=cc
edit: been stable across a variety of use for me so far, hopefully will also see battery savings later, if you notice any trouble let me know
