I f'ing love this kernel!!! Running golden setting on both the governor and I/O scheduler. Coupled with 4.3, my gnex has never been so smooth, wow!
toro, toro!
What setting for better battery life
This kernel has been giving me better battery life than lean. Keep up the good work. I was running default and then changed to powersave for even more savings

Just flashed this and so far its amazing!!! It deleted tapatalk and Pandora for some reason but I just reinstalled as it was no big deal just kinda weird. As of now it looks like I'll be using this for a while I'll report back in the next day or two and say how everything worked out. Thanks for making and posting this wonderful kernel!!! ^_^

OP reports that this is built with GCC 4.7. But TricksterMod is reporting 4.6.2, which has a date of 2011. Is that just a name thing? Or is 4.7 the same as 4.6.2? And why use a version from 2011?
Sounds like a good deal. I'll be flashing it tonight
Thank you for your feedback, I apreciate

I use only the arm-eabi folder of GCC 4.7, the other folders come from toolchain 4.6.2 here's the why
Does dropping the voltages down .50 actually help? I saw someone say that before but on a different kernel

I'm not one that typically sees much of a difference in kernels... This one is top notch. Major smoothville here! Great job!

CPU:
CPU frequencies: 224, 384, 537, 729, 1036, 1228, 1344, 1420, 1536 MHz (default on boot: 224 - 1228)
control to set a minimum CPU frequency for screen-on (default: 384 MHz)
Will help with smoothness and responsiveness when you use the phone. When screen is off, however, 224 MHz frequency is used as well.
CPU governors: ondemandplus (more info), interactive (default), ondemand, powersave, performance
ondemandplus is an ondemand- and interactive-based governor that has additional power-saving capabilities while maintaining very snappy performance.
ARM CPU topology: multi-core scheduling (enabled by default; saves battery by scheduling load among the CPU cores; more info)
temperature control
GPU & Display:
GPU frequency control: 307, 384 (default), 512 MHz
color, contrast and gamma contols
sane and natural looking color settings
I/O & memory:
F2FS support
ASRAM memory reclaim, giving you 744mb available RAM with a fully functional device
I/O schedulers: SIOplus (default), deadline, noop, row, bfqv5, cfq
updated HSMMC & OMAP4 NAND drivers (improve disk performance)
tuned LPDDR RAM timings (+10% throughput; more info)
optimized ext4 mountings
Android 3.4 low memory killer
ultra kernel samepage merging (UKSM; enabled by default)
fsync toggle
zRAM from 3.7 kernel (with fast LZ4 compression)
improved memory handling routines (memset, memzero, ...)
switch to disable the MMC CRC checking (more info)
Network:
TCP congestion control algorithms: westwood (default), cubic, reno
DTIM skip override (what it is and how it works)
Misc:
custom voltage control
timer slack feature (what does it do?)
fast charge
vibration strength control
sound control (high performance sound, volume boost)
battery life extender (BLX)
various performance and battery life tweaks
init.d support (no matter if the ROM supports it or not)
elevated systemui priority
module support (for slide2wake / PGM, e.g.)
more things... go check the source if you're interested.
compiled with Google GCC 4.7 toolchain (from Android NDK r9)
optional anykernel2 package by osm0sis for Android 4.3 and 4.2 compatibilty

Chit-chat:
What ROM / computer OS am I running?
People ask me this sometimes. On my Galaxy Nexus, I'm running Cyanogenmod 11 Nightlies and obviously Fancy Kernel. On my home PC (my Android build environment), I'm running Ubuntu 13.10.
Why did I name it 'fancy kernel'?
Because I do not want to use some random fancy name, but somehow have to give the kernel a name that is easily remembered. So after some self-irony involvement, I picked this ****ty name :>
What is so special about this kernel?
It offers superb battery life with a smooth and stable user experience. I am aware that all kernels claim that. Just try, see for yourself and report back. Innovations of this kernel are e.g. the screen-on min frequency setting, the ondemandplus governor and the SIOplus scheduler, since I implemented them myself. Also, I wanted many other improvements that exist across the several great kernels around XDA. After all, this kernel is based on other people's work for like 95 percent (like most kernels are).
Why did I build this Kernel initially?
Well that's rather easily answered. I used to use Franco kernel (which I really liked), but I wanted a kernel for myself which fits exactly to my needs. In particular, I especially wanted working hotplug, GPU OC controls, the option to set a minimum screen-on frequency and several hardcoded settings.
Oh, and yes: I built the kernel because I had fun doing so. But be not mistaken that I am a 'playaround kid': I dislike pulling in every little mod someone made. What I want is stability.
After some time I realized hotplugging would not be stable. After that I wrote the ondemandplus governor to save battery.
Why did I release it if I built it for myself?
I did not plan to release it at first. But I decided to release it since there was this one new feature (as named before: the screen-on min frequency control). I thought 'maybe it can contribute to others as well.' Also, maybe people like my compilation. Sharing is caring :>

downloading now , will share results in a few charges !
I usually stick with a couple certain kernels, because every time I try one outside of my 'safe' kernels, they don't play nice with my device.
I've decided to give this kernel a chance, mainly because it's new and I have the day off to test it out.
Re: [KERNEL][4.2] Fancy Kernel (Rel. #1) (JAN-24-2013)
Who knowz m not becoming a part of a great thread in the future..lets try this out

Trying this kernel for 2 days.
I can say, wonderful work.
Thanks boype!
Running it now at 192/1420 with 537 as max screen off. Pegasusq and bfq. GPU = 384 and SR remains on.
Can't tell how battery life is, as I just installed it. Charging phone back to 100 right now.
It is very smooth and responsive from what I've done so far though. Going to keep with this kernel for a couple days, see how it compares to my fall back, LeanKernel + Tweaks. So far, so good though.
Re: [KERNEL][4.2] Fancy Kernel (Rel. #1) (JAN-24-2013)
anybody test NFS17 game on this kernel?
Re: [KERNEL][4.2] Fancy Kernel (Rel. #1) (JAN-24-2013)
Wow, sound great
So, Can i flash it over stock 4.2.1 ?

As long as you are rooted, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to. I'm pretty sure being rooted is all you need to flash a kernel.

I'll give it a try but won't stick with it until an Stable release of CM10.1 is available, because I'm updating at every 3 nightlies and this kernel with an stable release of CM10.1 should be a monster. (and obviously I don't want to reflash it every new nightly.)
I liked it! I hope for further development of this kernel! Good luck! :good:

Overclocked CPU or GPU? If yes, I need to increase voltages.
Hello everyone. Before present anything about this kernel, first I must clarify that I'm not a kernel developer but I'm trying to learn all kernel stuff and knowledge during my free time and finally YEAH, I'M DID IT!
So I'm here proudly introduce my Skull Kernel for JellyBean which fully tested on CM10/CM10.1 by arco68. :fingers-crossed:

There are two kernel version in this thread. One for CM10, another one for CM10.1.
Upon flashing, you should know what you are doing and responsible
for anything bad happen. e.g. Hard brick, soft brick, etc.
But don't worry, I'm the one always getting kernel tested before released,
So I should get hurt first if something goes wrong. :angel:

Depend on you guys, if all need OC support I will implemented on next version.
It's already UV now
It's always great to see new custom kernels. I'd probably try this one out in its future releases as I'd like to see more changes and improvements.
P.S: The name of your kernel needs to be revised in my opinion.

Wow..another kernel to try. Will try it later. Just flashed hadi kernel this morning.
Hopefully it has a good performance for gaming.
Thank you for your work making this kernel.
Re: [Kernel][CM10][3.0.66] Skull Kernel v1.1 - 'Balance Performance & Battery Life'
If i'm not wrong it's using different title before, :what:
haha skull seems legit.
Then you should change the bootscreen with skull.
Can you add lulzactive and smartassv2 too?
Tried your kernel, gaming performance was smoother. Thanks

Seem that all of you like my cool name for this kernel - SKULL. I'm very appreciate it. :laugh:
So, add more governors is a "MUST" should be implemented on next version.. how about others?
Please specify, I will add in if I capable to do it!
thanks you master

For the 1.4 version I'm planning a reduction of radio frequency (less radiation, more health)
But it is not all... stay tuned!

Well, new update (1.5) with this new version I have introduced the new GoldenX2 governor: a GoldenX governor less aggressive, so more battery friendly but more fast, smooth and clean. A lot of news, read the changelog
Enjoy!
P.S. Wifi or 3g network? Now there aren't more differences
Here's all! The 1.6 version should be a major update but let's see the new higlight features like a totally new Hybla TCP Congestion, or the new Undervolt (enjoy high freqs with low battery drain).
Enjoy also the GoldenX2 gov and Golden I/O both tweaked for the better experience on the planet

To download a weekly, click on the latest weekly zip in the link above, then click "View Raw" to initiate the download.
Weeklies DO NOT replace stable releases. You can find the latest stable release in the downloads section below.
NOTE: Weekly builds are not guaranteed in any way, are untested, and possibly unstable (probably not though). By flashing a weekly, you agree to not receive support so that you can be on the bleeding edge of Electron.
Electron has Spectrum support! Spectrum is a simple and easy to use kernel management app. Though it was initially intended to be a companion app for Electron, Spectrum's innerworkings have been made public so that any developer can add spectrum support to their kernel!

Technical information
In this post, I will add descriptions of my original kernel features for users and developers to reference.
Chill CPU Governor:
Chill is based on conservative, and has two main deviations: a frequency boost interface and sleep-state power savings. The boost interface uses count based boosting, not timer based. This means that after frequency has increased X (default is 10) times in a row, the governor pushes frequency to max in order to skip checking for the remaining steps and acts on a min/max principle. This often matches the speed of interactive with improvements to battery. The sleep-state power savings entail restricting frequency to min when the screen is off, although a sleep boosting interface may be added to help with loads caused by syncing while asleep.
Maple I/O Scheduler:
Maple is based on the Zen and Simple I/O schedulers. It uses Zens first-come-first-serve style algorithm with separate read/write requests and improved former/latter request handling from SIO. Maple is biased towards handling asynchronous requests before synchronous, and read requests before write. While this can have negative aspects on write intensive tasks like file copying, it slightly improves UI responsiveness. Like chill, maple also has power saving features. When the device is asleep, maple increases the expiry time of requests so that it can handle them more slowly, causing less overhead.
Relaxed CPU Governor:
Relaxed is based on chill, and has been altered in order to achieve more gradual frequency boosting. Relaxed uses a boost ceiling variable in order to achieve this. Rather than boosting straight to the max frequency, relaxed finds the difference between boost_counter and boost_ceiling, then boosts to max minus that difference. For example, if boost_count is 8 and boost_ceiling is 12, when boost_counter reaches 8, the cpu freq will boost to 4 (12-8) levels below max, then increase if needed until boost_counter reaches boost_ceiling. This governor doesn't completely replace chill, but is intended to be used alongside it. Since the lowest frequency on a57 cores uses more power than the highest freq on a53 cores, it is still valuable to use chill on a57 in order to complete a task as quickly as possible.
Electron CPU Governor:
Electron is based on the latest interactive from the MSM8994 CAF branch with upstream improvements from Google, Linaro, and Chromium. The main differences are the inclusion of 2 new tunables, powersave_bias and screen_off_maxfreq. These allow for more granular control of your devices frequency scaling than the standard interactive governor. There are also improvements from FranciscoFranco, Imoseyon, and Neobuddy89.
Fingerprint Boost driver:
FP Boost is a custom boosting driver based on cpu-boost by Sultanxda. When input is received from the fingerprint sensor, all available cores are boosted to max frequency for 3 seconds in order to reduce the fingerprint scanner delay and wakeup lag.
Heck Yeah! Looking forward to running this!
Sounds awesome! Kudo's
Looks like we have a new kid on the block!
Thanks for sharing your work

What does this mean, exactly? Says it's "flash and go", which appeals to me, but if the pre-tuned settings don't boot... Am I misunderstanding? Thanks, BTW!

The default settings do boot, but on some ROMs the governor gets overridden at boot, so it gets changes back to interactive.

It's all good
I may give this a go with my reflash of PureNexus soon
I'm trying it out, thanks.

Link works fine for me, just opened it in Chrome. Basketbuild may be having issues but I was able to download just fine.
