Introduction:
About:
This Kernel is a port from the Z2/Z3/Z3C M5 Kernel based on the official CM12 kernel. It should work with any Rom using the stock CM kernel too (Like Carbon and Liquid).
Installation Instruction:
THIS DOES ONLY WORK ON UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER!
When you're on CM/a CM based Rom:
Flash the zip file in recovery (not CM recovery)
When coming from Stock:
Flash the boot.img included in the zip file using fastboot. Flash a CM based Rom then and flash the Kernel zip file again as the Rom overrides the Kernel.

Kernel works fine. Any booting problems happen only if your rom uses a non traditional ramdisk. Anyway, generic ramdisks should never be used. Short of recompiling the kernel, the procedure is to unpack m5 and replace it's ramdisk.cpio with that from your rom.
Please don't ask how to do it, as this well documented om XDA. Hint: use archi kitchen...

Not wanting to complain, but since V9 I use AnyKernel2, it does NOT contain a generic ramdisk because of exactly that reason. AnyKernel2 is designed to unpack the current boot.img, replace the zImage and dt.img, and apply 2 patches to the ramdisk (for lzma compressed recoverys and F2FS) and then repack the boot.img followed by flashing it. Not certainly sure why this does not work on Mokee Rom for you, we tested it especially on Mokee (as mokee has differently named libraries) and it worked fine.

That's good to know, but I was just replying to someone who had problems. I have none of those, as I build kernels in a specific rom environment. So, no need for packing/repacking.
By the way: Great job...

I think the problem is the cyanogenmod recovery. I flash it wich that recovery and get stuck and reboot all the time.
Now i flashed it wich Philz recovery and it is working.
Thank you

I am NOT resposible for any damage done to your device, your neighbor, or any other things you like/hate.
Introduction:
This is my first kernel for any Android device. I created it because I want to get the best out of my device. It initially started with some optimizations regarding SaberMod 4.9 compatibility but I tought why not optimize it even more.
About:
This Kernel is based on the official CM12 kernel, therefore it should work with any Rom using the stock CM kernel too (Like Carbon and Liquid). I run it together with Carbon here, all tests I do will also be done using Carbon. The Kernels features will get more with time
Features and Commit History:
Check 2nd Post!
Installation Instruction:
THIS DOES ONLY WORK ON UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER!
When you're on CM/a CM based Rom:
Flash the zip file in recovery
When coming from Stock:
Flash the boot.img included in your ROMs zip file using fastboot. Flash a CM based Rom then and flash the Kernel zip file again as the Rom overrides the Kernel.

Nice to see some kernel development going on
I'm backing up my device right now and will test your work after that.
Update:
- Boot took a while but it's all fine
- Will provide more results here in a while
- LED confirmed working now fully lit
- I think I got a random reboot while I left my Z3 in my room (if it happens again I will provide some logs etc for you to look into )
- Will do some benchmarking for the people who believe in those when I get time
- Sooo many new govenors, I'm pretty confused as I've never heard about most of them :silly:
(Google here I come ^^)
@Myself5 Is there a configuration you would suggest for daily use (music, some social networking, youtube)
lucky Z3 users .. Enjoy @Myself5's kernel
Z2 is already rocking with this kernel xD
Thanks for bringing this to our Z3, best thing you could have ever done.. Been using it ever since it was cooked into validus and been loving it ever since..
Fantastic news ! Would be great to get MultiRom Support to when possible

I definitely got a random reboot or signal loss.
I woke up my device and got the pin entry screen.
Two logs are attached as a zip (files exceed the text size limit).
Thanks for your effort.
Awesome! Thanks for you work on this kernel! It's about time to see some more cool things happening!

Not sure what you are talking about. You just need to flash the Kernel, then follow the install instruction on the MRom thread. The Kernel is able to load FOTAKernel Recoverys just fine

Thanks, working with init.d perfectly.
The init.d script is working, but still it's only a work around
and many times (mostly after the random reboots)
somehow the permissive mode isn't set properly while booting,
so Xposed and all it's modules aren't working.
So a kernel with a permissive default mode would be awesome :good:

Super Fast - Super Smooth - Super Stable - Super Reliable
- Super COOL -
SKernel was created for giving the users of "underprivileged" devices a memorable experience.
It ensures that everything is perfect from kernel side.
SKernel was created in mind, keeping these things - Speed, Performance and Stability.
None had an upper hand over the other, all were given equal importance.
After all the bits were in their right places, SKernel was born.
Initially built for the LG Optimus L5, SKernel now supports all the variants of LG Optimus L5, L7 and L3 II.

Place Holder #4: FAQ
Q: Will this conflict with any mod I'm using?
A: As long as it doesn't have any entropy related stuff, its okay. Since the kernel already comes with an inbuilt entropy generator, it will conflict with the ones from mod, causing a poor, stuttered performance!
Q: Deep Sleep isnt working for me, Google Services causing wake-locks, what to do?
A: Go to settings, Privacy, Privacy Guard, All apps, long press Google Services, and deny/disable wake-locks! (Thanks to @Paget96 for the solution)
Q: Which version should I install?
A: (For L5)If you're on CM11 Beta 9.2+ or a ROM based on its sources, then use latest beta release!
Else, use Beta 0.1.4
However, Beta 0.1.4 does not have latest features of SKernel.
Beta 0.1.4 has only over clock, under clock and undervolt (on 800MHz)
Use only if your current ROM isn't CM11 Beta 9.2+ based!
(For L7) Use the latest ROM available, or you can test on other ROMs but you may face some issues. There is absolutely no harm in testing tho!
Q: Why am I getting flickers?
A: You're on a wrong version of kernel, ie, kernel is slightly incompatible (due to new KK ion), try switching between Beta 0.1.4 and latest release!
Q: Where can I find Beta 0.1.4
A: Go to Original SKernel Thread. It can be found in older releases on mediafire
Q: Which version should I flash
A: Flash kernel to respective model number (E610/E612)
Q: Which frequency is the safest
A: The default frequency, 800MHz, is the safest!
But, there's no harm in overclocking upto 1100MHz.
You MAY face some issues on 1100MHz, but 1050MHz is stable as 'rock'!
Q: WiFi doesnt work for me
A: Use the kernel I made for CyanHacker ROM (available on the thread)
Reserved
Last one!
Hohoo, nice dude
I like that new features.
Keep working

thanks for testing, hows it?
do you get any issues on ril?
Deepsleep?
Kernel is good but its not smooth as I hoped it will be. Maybe that's just the p705 version on p700 not working well. And how do I chech if there is deepsleep or not?
Edit: BTW I am on last Imers CM11 3152015
Ok my friend @skyinfo
Kernel is good, I like it, here is full review.
I saw that there is 400.01mb of ram instead of 402.98mb (i think)
There is no deep-sleep
Freqs going to 1008mHz there is no oc, also I don't see 96mhz freq which is mentioned in first post.
I like that kernel have frandom entropy, much faster I check entropy levels with my L Speed mod, and goin much faster
Also, device have lags more than with default cm11 kernel
Wifi work fine
RIL is there, work good, both 2g and 3g working, bluetooth working, everything is working
I know that this is little things, also I know that you will fix it today
And I know what are you trying to say that THLG update L5 more than L7
Waiting for the next release
This zip in attachment is for p705 users which use the latest CM11 by imer, this is default kernel
Thanks sky again for your awesome work
I know that you will fix all today
Regards
Paget96

I am NOT resposible for any damage done to your device, your neighbor, or any other things you like/hate.
Introduction:
About:
This Kernel is a port from the Z2/Z3/Z3C M5 Kernel based on the official CM12 kernel. It should work with any Rom using the stock CM kernel too (Like Carbon and Liquid). I'm mainly using PAC 5.1, and it's working sweet so far!
Installation Instruction:
THIS DOES ONLY WORK ON UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER!
When you're on CM/a CM based Rom:
Flash the zip file in recovery
When coming from Stock:
Flash the boot.img included in the zip file using fastboot. Flash a CM based Rom then and flash the Kernel zip file again as the Rom overrides the Kernel.

It's still 3.4 based, but as soon as Camera is working on 3.10 Kernel I'm going to work on a 3.10 based M5 Kernel as I'll use it for Carbon and OmniROM builds for my devices too.

You need to ask jerpelea to give you link to the commit on git when everything worked! Last time when I used his kernel everything is worked, only which was lag was some videos but camera if I am not wrong worked well!
Does the kernel work with slim based roms? I have tried V7 and V7.9 with Tesla and unfortunately both are bootlooping.
Kernel works great. If I want to try F2FS support for the amami it doesn't work.
From my experience it is missing the f2fs mount strings in the fstab.qcom file in the ramdisk. Any chance u can add the mounting lines in the fstab file so I don't have to manually apply them?

If you're sure that this is the problem, gladly
Just to be safe though, would you send me how fstab.qcom should look like? That way I won't make any unfortunate mistakes
Wow finally a kernel for CM12.
Thanks a lot!
EAP wifi fix maybe? Or is that not kernel related?

Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this KERNEL
before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
Pls Read This before flashing:
You need ROM's default kernel before flashing this, as this kernel makes use of AnyKernel 2 by @osm0sis. Make sure you have it otherwise clean flash the kernel with the rom to avoid any issues.(At least dirty flash rom+kernel) Credits to @attack11 for some part of install script.Read FAQ's and changelogs in 2nd post. THIS KERNEL COMES FINE TUNED OUT OF THE BOX. Some useful battery saving tipshttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64850959&postcount=198
DOWNLOADS:
Grab it here
#ROM infos on the 4th post, be sure to check it
How to Flash:
1. Download the kernel and place it into your phone storage
2. Reboot into recovery
3. Install the kernel
4. (optional) Wipe Dalvik Cache and Cache partitions
5. Reboot and enjoy!

FAQ
F.A.Q. - Read this before complaining!
1. My phone exploded, HELP!
A: I don't answer to problems without a log. The log file is in /proc/last_kmsg. Paste it on hastebin.com and link it on your post. Logcats are useless for Kernel purposes, don't bother posting them.
2. This kernel works on Y or X rom?
A: Works on all CM13 based roms. Not for stock roms!!
3. OMG BATTERY SUCKZ, ITZ DEAD IN 45 MINUTES, HELP!
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.
4. How do I flash this?
A: Read the OP, theres a reason why I added instructions on it.
5. What is a data loss? Did I just had one?
A: Data loss is simply having the connection cut for X periods of time, usually few seconds. Grey bars means the device is not connected to Google services for some weird reason, but you'll still have internet connection.
6. OP is arrogant, I'm gonna call the Internet Police?
A: Deal with it.[/QUOTE]
Info
Many thanks to showp1984 for this info
What is msm_mpdecision?
100% kernel based multi core decision! (should cpu1/2/3 be online or not?)
This is a special version modded by neobuddy Plus the idle frequency and some load thresholds have been adjusted by me.
Some Configuration:
startdelay = time until mpdecision starts doing it's magic (20000)
delay = time between checks (130)
pause = if something else plugs in the cpu, fall asleep for 10000ms (10 secs)
scroff_single_core = if the screen is off, don't plug in cpu1/2/3. Additionally: Unplug all cpus except cpu0 when screen is turned off (1)
enabled = enable(1) or disable(0) mpdecision. This does not affect scroff_single_core!
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. (600 MHz)
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 on every online cpu. This boosts overall reaction times and smoothness a lot. (works similar to the qcom mpdecision binary)
So here's the surprise
Hello folks,
I am using my own optimised builds since initial phase of CM13. Rom and kernel are both build with Uber 5.2.1 and few more optimisations on the kernel (It's same like in the first post). The Uber Toolchain developer said due to new neon optimisations in Uber toolchains, the battery life has increased by 25%. Well using since a long time, I almost get 6hrs+ SOT(Ofcourse will vary with you) and a mindblowing performance. So I am going to provide weekly Uber CM13 builds with optimisations(It is somewhat close to pf-cm by Diamond Bond). The people interested, could use it , It will stay really close to CM and few picks here and there. I would really appreciate feedbacks I am using the build posted and it's really rock stable.

Awesome work brother
Vat Bro
This is cool.
Good going
Keep it UP
Check #4th post for the Optimised cm13 builds, Really didn't feel like making a new thread..
Is it fully functional, Like Working mobile data , camera Themes Etc... Is there any way you can provide delta updates to ur rom instead of downloading the whole file.. I'm currently using cm 13 which has no Major issues as of now , so is this rom(dec 2 build) Recommend or should I wait for future builds ?
Thanks IA ��

Thanks for the quick response , I'll try it out and let you know .., . And thanks for the rom ��
I can't install your kernel over CM's stock kernel. there's an error with the updater-script. I am using the 02/12 CM13 build, how can I help?

Changelogs
While searching the Internet you might also find versions which aren't listed here: these are Beta versions and their changelog isn't available (but included in the one of the next stable version, so you don't miss anything).
All the changes I made are listed on GitHub.
Version 2.4.2
Code:
- update sdcardfs
- updated build scripts and recovery scripts
- changed toolchain to a better version (Linaro Android gcc 6.3.1)
- widely improved ramdisk scripts
- updated ramdisk to latest version from RR with 7.1.2 support
Changelogs for previous versions:
Version 2.4.0
Code:
- updated with latest Linux patches
- various fixes (including thermal management and network communication)
Version 2.3.0
Code:
I'm constantly working to provide a better kernel. This implies a lot of research, testing and stressing my eyes staring at code. I'm adding a lot of small fixes.
So, try to understand me if I don't always have time to report a changelog.
As always, you can check GitHub for a detailed changelog.
Version 2.2.1
Code:
Sorry if I didn't write down a changelog for the last releases, I've been quite busy.
Anyway: since version 2.1.6b there are a LOT of changes, performance, battery, stability... Just check it out (and check GitHub for a full changelog).
Version 2.1.6b
Code:
- updated busybox and sqlite3 binaries with more convenient versions
- changed optimizations, enabled safety features and possibly fixed f2fs cryptography
- getting ready for the Synapse restyling
- build the kernel uncompressed
The latter fix solves most lagging issues and noticeably improve performance over compressed version; I'll look into the kernel size issue soon!
Version 2.1.5
Code:
- ramdisk rebased over RR's one
- kernel size reduced
Version 2.1.4
Code:
- updated interactive governor with Samsung optimized version
- implemented the AMOLED flicker free patch
- updated ramdisk for both herolte and hero2lte to the one from latest LineageOS builds
- updated ramdisk to be compatible with SlimROM (untested)
- removed a few redundant tweaks
- fireactive it's on its way to debut, but still disabled because incomplete, sorry :(
Version 2.1.2
Code:
- init: added a few tweaks
- ramdisk: changes in sepolicy
- ramdisk: try to fool safetynet and fix wakelocks
- updated to DQBO kernel source
- fstab: reworked mount options
- fs: add exfat support
- fs: implement optimised and stable f2fs (from oneplus/QC8996_N)
- enabled Swap (I had the idea while looking into the OP3 sources)
Version 2.1.0
Code:
Many beta versions came before this one, and all of them had their list of fixes... I'll try to summarize:
- some configs were tweaked
- enabled init.d support
- Synapse support
- implemented elementalx
- various fixes
- faked Knox 0x0 and try to hide from SafetyNet
- switched back to cfq as default scheduler
- probably other stuff I can't remember now... I need to sleep ahahah
Version 1.2.4
Code:
- temporarily reverted to Linux 3.18.14 (and so fixed the video playback issue)
- updated mount options to reduce I/O overhead
- tweaked the kernel configuration to have better performance
- enabled additional compression algorithms and cryptography utilities
Version 1.2.3
Code:
- updated zen sched driver to version 1.1
- SELinux is now set to Permissive by default
Version 1.2.2
Code:
- now using zen as default I/O scheduler
- changed the default frequency range for the CPU
- updated to Linux 3.18.17 (still working to bring the latest patches)
- switched to a custom Makefile optimised for our architecture
Version 1.2.0
Code:
- overclock and underclock support for both CPU and GPU
- voltage control (see notes in the OP [B][**][/B])
- moved to Uber Toolchain 7.x (aarch64-linux-android-7.x)
- improved recovery installation script
Version 1.1.0
Code:
- First public release
[TUTORIAL] How to set up your phone with f2fs
1) First you have to install a compatible recovery. Recent TWRP releases can format and mount f2fs, but they don't handle a few installation scripts correcty. I recommend TWRP 3.0.2-4 by @lyapota which has the correct patches. You can find it here.
2) Then you have to backup all your data (internal storage will be wiped too, so make sure to copy ALL your files in the INTERNAL storage). So, any TWRP backup should be taken on external SD card.
3) After this, reboot into TWRP. From Wipe / Advanced Wipe check only /data, then select Change Filesystem and check f2fs. Do the same for /cache. At the moment I don't think there are ROMs that support f2fs on /system too (LineageOS, for example, forces ext4 and formats despite settings).
4) Reboot into recovery once again, so we're sure that it can mount everything.
5) At this point you're done. Flash your ROM of choice, this kernel, any GApps and whatever you want.
Reboot and profit!
ROMs supporting f2fs formatted /system will be listed here when available.
cool
I tried this on RR and saw for so good. I built-it into my RR build to get it to boot and love the different governors and features.
So cool, thank you !
I completed a new release with some stuff added:
Code:
- overclock and underclock support for both CPU and GPU
- voltage control (see notes in the OP [B][**][/B])
- moved to Uber Toolchain 7.x (aarch64-linux-android-7.x)
- improved recovery installation script
The note i refer to, in short, says that voltage control is implemented but not reachable by the user.
Next steps in this kernel development are complete access to GPU overclock and voltage control, followed by latest Linux patches and eventual requests by the users.
Have a nice day

Without root it passes but Magisk hide isn't working on our AOSP ROMs.

Magisk doesn't work on AOSP Roms ?
Really cool ROM how ever it removes SuperSU on AOSP extended and you will need to reflash however since flashing this it seems my audio stuttering while in apps has I believe disappeared will test further hope to some sound config's (Faux sound or alternative if possible) keep up the good work

I tried 1.2.0 on my g930w8 with RR and it won't boot. Gets stuck on the RR logo. I even tried clean flash and still won't boot. Yesterday I build the kernel directly into RR and it booted but since the change to 7.0 toolchain I can't even build because I am on Mac which Uber 7.0 doesn't support.

Works for me, I'm using the latest RR on my G930W8 (apk3 bootloader) and I dirty flashed 1.2.0.

Yeah wonder what's going on. I am on same boot loader/modem and couldn't get it to work with 1.2.0.. I tried dual boot and even installing RR as main ROM and wouldn't work. I actually had to copy and use my boot.img from 02/26 that contained the OPs source built-in to get boot. If it works for others on official RR, maybe it's something with my custom build. I do use the same manifest as 8890dev. Thanks for letting me know.
W8 here as well had no problem just flashing kernel over everything I already had.. was first release. Waiting on new update assuming it's being uploaded cause download link don't work
New release announcement
New release uploaded while I finish some stuff. I spent yesterday on the Linux patches but I will have to do some "tricks" to make them work... and it's a long work.
Version 1.2.2
Code:
- now using zen as default I/O scheduler
- changed the default frequency range for the CPU
- updated to Linux 3.18.17 (still working to bring the latest patches)
- switched to a custom Makefile optimised for our architecture
Nice bro Thanks! No hurry BTW quality over quantity any day! Just happy for a new kernel for 7.1!!!
Good to see new kernel for s7, which app can I use with this kernel? Synapse ?
