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.

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.
Download :-
All optimised buildshttps://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=44644
Installation :-
A clean wipe is mandatory.
Wipe cache,dalvik cache, system, data
Flash the zip
Flash gapps ( I use slim zero gapps)
Reboot, Enjoy!

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 ��

Flashing Instructions:
- Flash through recovery (TWRP recommended)
- Flash UKM-Donkey Edition (optional)
- Clean cache (recommended)
- Reboot
- Install Synapse (optional)
- Enjoy (mandatory)
CHANGELOGS:
REFER TO MY KERNEL SOURCE FOR DETAILS ON EVERY COMMIT INCLUDED.
ON HOW TO HANDLE CHARGE_LEVES INTERFACE (proceed with caution, if you don't know what you are doing, just don't do it... I won't support any mess ups with this option!)
- You'll find the sysfs interface for this in this path: /sys/kernel/charge_levels
- The charge_level_ac file contains the value for the wall charger rate in mA; if the file contains a 0 value, it will charge at the standard rate, anything else will be user handled; values should go not more than to the 2100 limit.
- The charge_level_usb file contains the value for the usb charge rate in mA; if the file contains a 0 value, it will charge at the standard rate, anything else will be user handled; values should go not more than to the 500 limit.
- Te charge_info file provides info about the rate in mA and voltage when the phone is charging.
ON HOW TO APPLY ZZMOOVE PROFILES: For now, use Kernel Adiutor, Synapse or any other kernel tweaker to select Zzmoove as the Cpu Governor, and under Governor Optimizers (or in the Sysf folder) and choose the profile_number of your choice:
1 - for Default (set governor defaults)
2 - for Yank Battery -> old untouched setting (a very good battery/performance balanced setting DEV-NOTE: highly recommended!)
3 - for Yank Battery Extreme -> old untouched setting (like yank battery but focus on battery saving)
4 - for ZaneZam Battery -> old untouched setting (a more 'harsh' setting strictly focused on battery saving DEV-NOTE: might give some lags!)
5 - for ZaneZam Battery Plus -> NEW! reworked 'faster' battery setting (DEV-NOTE: recommended too! )
6 - for ZaneZam Optimized -> old untouched setting (balanced setting with no focus in any direction DEV-NOTE: relict from back in the days, even though some people still like it!)
7 - for ZaneZam Moderate -> NEW! setting based on 'zzopt' which has mainly (but not strictly only!) 2 cores online
8 - for ZaneZam Performance -> old untouched setting (all you can get from zzmoove in terms of performance but still has the fast down scaling/hotplugging behaving)
9 - for ZaneZam InZane -> NEW! based on performance with new auto fast scaling active. a new experience!
10 - for ZaneZam Gaming -> NEW! based on performance with new scaling block enabled to avoid cpu overheating during gameplay
11 - for ZaneZam Relax -> NEW! based on moderate (except hotplug settings) with relaxed sleep settings (to react audio/bluetooth/wakeup issues)
Thanks for this man, Just downloaded your unofficial omni build and now this.
Wow! Finally a Custom Kernel for Omni! Much Appreciated

Not really, I'm still testing -and will probably keep tuning- hotplugs and governors. I'm even considering adding Bricked Hotplug too.
The beauty -in my opinion- about Omni is how solid it works. With other roms I've allways stepped into A or B annoying bugs. Not talking down about anybody's work, but even when Omni takes more time to add features, things work better, and I like that. Plus these guys are making a true open source project, not meaning to bloat our experience with the goal of making money -like CM theme manager- but again, that's just my point of view.
Back to the kernel, there's still work to be done. For now, at least I'm getting a much more acceptable battery drain and, in my opinion, a very good idle/deepsleep drain. Yet I'm not too fond about excesive options, and 3 hotplug drivers qualify as way too much to choose from. I love mako_hotplug because of it's simple and clean approach, that's why it's defaulted. But I might find some other works better in lollipop. So please toy with settings and try to find ur better config. And... report back if you can, I could use the feedback.
Thanks for downloading and trying out.
Looks like a very interesting kernel for the omnirom!
What does the 'quick wake up' feature exactly do? Does it remove the slight delay between pressing the power button and the screen turning on?
Could not really find something describing it on google.
Omni is using cpuquiet hotplug, right ?
Is it working 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

Paget96

Brilliant! Gonna flash it right away!!!
Can this be used on Stock based roms ?
No install hiccups, running smoothly.
BTW, which governor gives a better battery life, not compromising on the performance extensively, but little above balanced?
Thanks

im testing this right now with reccommended settings, post my benchmark scores later
scores 18608
If you guys have other settings to reach the full potential of the hardware with great battery life please post :angel:
Works Fine and fast....
CPU underclocking is THE BEST
I have a doubt : Under the Hotplug[CPU] Should the MPDecision be Enabled for the kernel addon MSM MPDecision Hotplug to work? ALSO should i Disable faux's Intelliplug?

I have start this project to bring a more features and updates to Quark Kernel, and put the user on the control of the Kernel configuration
ROM Support:
This will work on any CM/LOS Custom ROM that is up to date to CM/LOS Repo or my custom ROM repo (in doubt check with the ROM developer) And latest Motorola Stock Marshmallow ROM for all devices (for the stock ROM use Kernel V3.5 and up only)
TWRP will display what is flashing during installation if the TWRP screen show something odd print the screen and post on the thread
SuperSu support on Stock ROM:
Link for BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3-20151211162651_3
If you never flash SU on Stock ROM first Flash that version reboot then go back to recovery and Update using the latest from SU thread
This Kernel has safetynet verification Support on unlocked bootloader of course without ROOT, if you wanna ROOT checks latest hide root support threads use XDA search for that
Main features:
I will bring any featuring and improves that is possible to Quark, but the main point is provide the better experience balance battery vs performance, keep a update kernel and full user control.
Kernel is a slow process to improve I will take my time and will make updates when I can, every update will be tested before release, any bug found please let me know.
Some of the below features can only be see on the app when using this thread Kernel, the below are just some of many featuring of this app/kernel...
CPU and GPU - Over and under clock;
Linux Kernel always update to the latest version;
Many custom CPU GOV optimized for Krait 450;
CPU optimizations;
CPU Per core control;
CPU Per core Frequency control;
CPU Per core Governor control;
CPU Schedule workqueues;
CPU Boost ;
CPU Wakeup Boost and Hotplug Boost;
CPU voltage control;
Custom CPU Hotplug;
Custom Thermal control;
Ram control;
GPU optimizations;
GPU idling algorithm;
Wake gestures Doubletap2wake and Sweep2wake ;
KCAL - Advanced color control;
Sound control module;
Power and suspend Improves;
I/O Scheduler optimizations;
Many custom I/O;
Wake Locks controler;
KSM kernel same-page merging;
Virtual Memory;
Zram;
Network optimizations;
Many custom TCP Cong algorithm;
Custom Kernel Adiutor app with special features just for Quark (to better support my kernel I make my on Kernel adiutor check Downloads)
Check Changelog L, Changelog M, Changelog M and N, Changelog O, Changelog P and Mod Kernel adiutor changelog for full list of features.
Installation instruction Kernel:
Download the latest version
Take a TWRP backup (system, boot and data)
Flash the zip using latest TWRP recovery (wipes are't necessary)
Reboot
Enjoy!
On Oreo, will take two tries to finished the boot process after the update, first is slow and reboot at the end second is fast and after all must work OK
Installation instruction app:
Just Install the apk like anormal app on any ROM it need's ROOT access to work.
Installation Files
Download Kernel Oreo, Nougat and Marshmallow (Marshmallow only version 3.5 and up, Oreo 9.5 and up):
Main:
Gdriver Mirror Click Here (This contains current and previously version)
Secondary:
AFH Mirror Click Here (This contains all old versions)
Download Kernel Lollipop click here
Download App Mod Kernel adiutor for Quark:
XDA Labs Click Here or use XDA Labs app to install update and received updates warning (search for KA27)
AFH Mirror Click Here (This contains all old versions)
TWRP For Quark click here
To go back to Stock ROM kernel:
Oreo:
Is possible in Oreo to just restore or reflash the Stock ROM boot.img, if you did not made a backup of the boot partition, you can extract the boot.img from the ROM zip and install it over TWRP the process is the same as any .zip flash but you must chose "images (is in the bottom right of the install screen) after select the image and image type "boot"
Older than Oreo OS::
As quark kernel is not just a boot.img before Oreo, it has some modules that are on the system partition, to restore is need to re-flash yours ROM zip (a dirty flash) it will re-flash the stock kernel + all the modules of that ROM, but will erase any modification that you made to system like xposed or gapp so is need to re-flash any zip that changes the system partition. Make a TWRP backup first just in case, the dirt flash may bootloop, in that case clean install.

Below is some help for the most know problems.
Random Power off or reboots?
To identify if the device random reboot or simply power it self off there is two ways.
1) If after the device goes black you can't power it up again without plunging the charger, then is because the battery is dead, even if yours battery had good % left before it shutdown yours battery is probably damage doesn't matter if the device/battery is new a battery can go bad simply by charging the device wrong, a wrong way to do it is let the device constantly go bellow 20% as low you let it get worse yours battery will be with time.
2)Check the boot reason prop "ro.boot.bootreason" if it is like the example bellow set to power_key_press the device didn't reboot it sled power off.
Code:
[ro.boot.bootreason]: [power_key_press]
Check the prop using :
Kernel Audiutor app > logs section > search in a log > mark getprop > search key word "reason".
If the Random power off are related to battery, BCL can help mitigate the problem.
BCL can be controlled via BHB27 kernel adiutor Power and battery section.
Lowering the BCL Max frequency or Making the number of hot unplugged core higher will help to mitigate the CPU power.
But if the problem persist is necessary to change the BCL low and high voltage threshold to higher values to make BCL to start sooner, the recommendation is to set they to 3700mV (Low) and 4000mV(High) and if the problem is resolved after that, the device stops randomly power it self off, lower the values 100mv it until you find a perfect value, or if the problem persist make the values 100mV higher.
Is also recommended to set the battery "Automatic power saver" from default 15% to a higher value, with is today max at 25%
If the device did just reboot just share a log as recommended on next post.
There is a help like this on the ROM's I share it may help as some problem are ROM related and not kernel so they are not here, so try to check there for more .
This kernel is tested and is fully working.
Bug report are welcome, make with in the most accurate description possible, do not spare words, screens and logs, a bug that I can't understand and can't be reproduced, I can't fix.
Always start a post with a bug report with @fgl27 and always attached a log .zip
fgl27 Kernel Adiutor > Logs > One click all Logs to a ZIP
If is a Reboot/Power off related bug make the log as soon the device finishes boot up
Bugs without logs, without @fgl27 will probably not be read, there is too much posts on the thread sometimes and I don't have time to read it all, anyone can post as much as is need of course as long is a things related to this thread
Feature request are welcome too, but understand not all feature that exist is possible to bring to quark.

One request, if possible? "Westwood Plus" TCP congestion control. I know "Cubic" is the Android default, but many tests show Westwood Plus (also written Westwood+) is better under lossy conditions. (Not to be confused with the original "Westwood", Westwood + is a newer version. ) Many custom ROMs include it in their kernels, and some custom kernel devs make it the default over Cubic.
Yes, there is debate over which one is better -- Cubic or Westwood Plus. But isn't choice a good thing?
http://androidmodguide.blogspot.com/p/tcp-algorithms.html
Westwood/Westwood+:
A newer version of Reno, and another commonly used one. It controls parameters better, helping out streaming and overall quality of browsing the internet. One of the most 'fair' algorithms out there, and is one of the most efficient algorithms to date.

If it's not possible to include it, I can live with Cubic. Just a request. :good:

Yes The + i did not find because did not know about, i will search, I have included some already in the test version that i'm using, check the pic.
I know how to make things work for quark Kernel, but i don't now all the things that exist, so keep me inform, i will search and if is possible to port to quark i will.
will try to release a new version later today 6 to 8 hours from now, test is very good.
@ChazzMatt the Westwood in the next build is already the Westwood+
check the C file in here
The file is name just westwood but you can read in the file description that is the +... Test kernel is really stable, will released today, let all test and see what is the best for it use...

Yes it does, did not have time to go over gpu_gov, I recommend to leave as default msn-adreno-tz. Will remove or fix simple ondemand. :good:
Implemented, now I'm testing new features that user's ask... No new hotplug, mako is not ported right now to MAXX, will try to port other improved hot plug or improve msm
Voltage, sound, FS and screen control. FS can only be change with some kernel app (like trickster mod ).
All is good bu twill test longer to make shore.

- If you like my work, you could press thx or vote positively for this thread.
Howdy
In an attempt to continue improving the kernel of BlueFlame4 (as he is was switching to a different phone) I hereby offer guestekrnl.
The usual disclaimer applies:

*/
guestekrnl continues seamlessly where visi0nary's kernel left off (v1.6.1), which is why the initial version of guestekrnl is v1.6.2 (or v1.6.1, if you count my re-build)
The main goals for this kernel are improvements:
maximizing (ui) smoothness / snappiness
keeping power consumption as low as possible, while still feeling smooth
keeping linux-base up-to-date
Apart from these improvements, I would consider the kernel quite feature-complete, so you should not expect countless new features.
Please remember: After you have flashed the kernel in Recovery, perform the following steps:
go to menu "Wipe and Format Options"
perform "Wipe Dalvik/ART Cache"
perform "Wipe Cache"
Please do not report any problems or bugs, if you did not perform these steps along with the installation of the new kernel.
Version Log:
v2.4.1
merged fix for new camera driver from visi0nary upstream ( thanks to @BlueFlame4 and @walter79 ) to support new P8000 model's camera
if your camera still does not work with your new P8000 model and this kernel, your ROM might be lacking some drivers - try those by @skeleton1911 for Android 5.1.x ROMs https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424939670
v2.4
upgraded linux base from 3.10.101 to 3.10.102 ("Linux kernel 3.10.102 LTS is a pretty big maintenance update that changes a total of 153 files, with 1,194 insertions and 608 deletions.")
cherry-picked new camera driver from visi0nary upstream ( thanks to @BlueFlame4 and @walter79 ) to support new P8000 models
cherry-picked a read/write persmissions change for doubleTap2Wake from visi0nary upstream ( thanks to @BlueFlame4 )
v2.3.3
switched toolchain in hope of improved power consumption
deactivated to old battery drop shift fix (the one that didn't fix the drop, but shifted it upwards) - also in hope of improved power consumption
one cherry-pick from visi0nary upstream
this is supposed to be the last release for a longer period of time, because there's not much to improve currently - I sincerely hope this release will work well for everyone :good: :highfive:
v2.3.2
finally working battery drop fix by @BlueFlame4 (confirmed working by community). the battery drop might still occur, if you rebooted between charging cycles, but if you use the phone starting with a full battery until it's empty, you should no longer experience a noticeable drop.
re-enabled the old battery drop fix as well (which shifted the drop from 15->0% to 35->20%. So if a drop occurs after a reboot (as mentioned above), it should happen somewhere above 20% battery and not drop directly to 0%.
double-tap 2 wake is still enabled, so if you are on Cyanogenmod and use a build without dt2w, you can just flash this kernel and it will work again
v2.2.1
this is not the experimental 2.2.1-SNAPSHOT-kernel some of you tested. This is the final 2.2.1 kernel.
upgraded linux base from 3.10.100 to 3.10.101 - Changelog
use updated sabermod toolchain (aarch64-linux-gnu-5.3-03-06-16)
provide 2 flavors: with or without experimental battery fix (if the battery fix of v2.2.0 does not work for you, or you still get a drop and would prefer the drop to happen at the end of a charging cycle (like on stock kernel), you can just flash the version without the experimental fix)
v2.2.0
compatible with the latest CyanogenMod ROM - CM Thread
upgraded linux base from 3.10.99 to 3.10.100 - Changelog
fix for 20 percent battery drop (sorry, reportedly not working) (by @DerTeufel1980 , @BlueFlame4 and @walter97 - thanks a lot for sharing!!) - Commit
increased charging speed ( by @BlueFlame4 and @walter97 - thanks a lot for sharing!!) - Commit
v2.1.0
upgraded linux base from 3.10.98 to 3.10.99 - Changelog
upgraded linux base from 3.10.97 to 3.10.98 - Changelog
switched to a different toolchain (latest sabermod gcc 5.3)
v2.0.5
upgraded linux base from 3.10.96 to 3.10.97 (2016-02-19) - this includes the following commits:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
furthermore, the IPv6 config has been changed, which might or might not improve IPv6 router connectivity for some users.
v2.0.4
upgraded linux base from 3.10.95 to 3.10.96 (2016-01-29) - this includes the following commits:
v2.0.3
upgraded linux base from 3.10.94 to 3.10.95 (2016-01-23) - this includes the following commits:
yes, this includes the fix for keychain vulnerability CVE-2016-0728
v2.0.2
upgraded linux base from 3.10.90 to 3.10.94 (12/2015) - this includes dozens of improvements over the old linux base
switched to toolchain "ubertc" gcc 4.9 (01/2016)
v2.0.1
fix stability issues (this release is a replacement for v2.0.0): Mediatek seems to have compatibility/stability issues with additionally introduced CPU governors and I/O schedulers, which is why in 2.0.1 I use the same built-in governor and scheduler I used for stable v1.6.1 (rebuild)
wake-up delay gone (also thanks to using the same governor as in v1.6.1)
I'm sorry if you experienced any stability issues with v1.6.2 and v2.0.0 - they seem to be caused by the governors/schedulers and should be gone now
I'll remove the download for v2.0.0 in favor of v2.0.1 which should now be stable.
v2.0.0
first major release of guestekrnl with over 900 commits ahead of the source of visi0nary's kernel
upgraded linux base from 3.10.65 to 3.10.90 (LTS) - this includes hundreds of improvements over the old linux base
switch from sio I/O scheduler to deadline
update/modify intelliactive CPU governor & switch from wheatley governor to intelliactive
introduce and enable power efficient work queues
reduced log spamming
various performance improvements and hopefully power-saving mechanisms
pocketmod is now disabled, as it breaks doubletap2wake (same as in visi0nary's kernel). Enabling pocketmod through vTool won't do anything
introduce and enable UKSM (Ultra-KSM) along with KSM (Kernel same-page merging)
various arm64 improvements
various defconfig changes
updated build flags
introduce BFQ-v7r8 I/O scheduler (though currently not set as default in favor of deadline)
all the other changes are listed here https://github.com/gueste/android_kernel_elephone_p8000/commits/master
everyone is adviced to upgrade to guestekrnl v2.0.0 and to report on the usage experience - thank you!
v1.6.2
introduce SIO IO scheduler & use as default IO scheduler
introduce wheatley CPU governor & use as default CPU governor
also introduce intelliactive governor, but not used as a default, because it didn't convince me during my everyday-use tests
use custom/enhanced kernel compilation flags
minor changes in kernel defconfig
built with a freshly built sabermod toolchain, using custom compilation flags
v1.6.1
the kernel from my separate thread "visi0nary's kernel alternative build"
Kernel Tool:
For tweaking a couple of kernel parameters, you can use the same "vTool", you have been using for visi0nary's kernel. In case you haven't got this tool yet, you can find it here.
exFAT Support:
If you want to use an exFAT formatted external SD card, then you can enable exFAT support as posted by @dr_root : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65063912&postcount=77
Installation:
Just flash in recovery - wipe cache & dalvik cache afterwards (before initially booting the system with the new kernel)
Tip:
Double-tap 2 wake is set to only work in the middle of the screen, so remember to tap in the middle
If your phone after longer periods of sleep doesn't react to "double-tap to wake", try "triple-tap to wake"
Further tips & kernel source: see second and third posting!
I'd be delighted to get your usage feedbacks! This kernel should always be stable and is intended for daily usage.
Credits:
The credits of the original visi0nary's kernel remain intact.
For those that have double-tap2wake enabled
... and have issues with the screen during phone calls (for example: screen is black, but buttons can still be pressed):
You can either turn off dt2w completely using vTool, or use the attached re-build of the blackscreen-fixer that most of you will know from Eragon ROM.
The attached re-build has been made 1 day ago, as the original app did not support guestekrnl v2.0.1
If you have this app already (the older version), replace it with this version. - On latest Eragon you will have this version automatically.
So, beginning with 2.0.1 and upwards, use the attached version of the app, or the latest Eragon ROM.
You have to start the app at least once and grant it superuser-rights. Then it should work on phone calls automatically.
Note: the re-build of this app has the same filename as the original one, but it is a modified version that supports my latest kernel builds.

with kernel adiutor in governor cpu it shows intelliactive, it is better than wheatley governor?

In my opinion there is no "best" governor. The results may vary from device to device (and also usage). For the P8000 I tested both and wheatley felt smoother to me. Smartmax also felt very smooth, but it currently does not work properly (causes reboots), which is a hint that it isn't ported correctly and is why I disabled it for the moment and didn't mention it in OP.
Edit: In v2.0.0 intelliactive feels best to me (it is now preset)

Can you tell us what kind of changes? And what about when the phone battery goes to 15% it suddenly drops? Im using your kernel(6.1) and it rocks!!

Well, the next version I'm working on, is already 944 commits ahead of the latest visi0nary's kernel.
Each commit contains one or multiple changes in one or multiple files.
Most of those commits are updates of the linux base (which of course I just had to merge into the kernel and not to code myself) - there are also a couple of useful new features that will hopefully help saving power and improve performance.
I've still a couple things to merge/cherry-pick, then we will see.
Edit: concerning battery you will have to test, if you have this problem with the upcoming version(s) too.
Got stuck in bootloop, was on eragon 7.3 with visionary 1.6.1, I installed 1.6.2 kernel, cleared cache and davik, android apps updated and then phone rebooted and stuck on dragon logo. Now trying nexus lite rom

Download of v2.0.0 can be found in first posting.
Download of v1.6.2 has been removed in favor of the supposedly more stable v1.6.1.
Hello! I just flashed the kernel (I hope im first ) and so far, the dt2w works great. The smoothness is like in v1.6.1 which means its great. Will inform you about the battery usage in a day or two! :highfive:
After 3-4 hours of usage, there are some major problems.
DT2W not working
Phone Powers off randomly
I think the sensor is not as good as the last version
the phone wakes up randomly (screen powers on without any reason)
Im going back to v.1.6.1

hmm... I can't confirm the on /off problem (yet)
I've flashed the Kernel for round about 4 hours and it doesn't power off or wakes up.
BUT the phone is only lying on my table...
AND I don't use the DT2W function. I've turnd that feature off in the vTool.

Run some games, make some calls and see what happens.
p.s Maybe its because of the Seeder app?
Settings in my seeder app:
Suspend Rng .. checked
Extend I/o Queue checked
Start automatically on boot checked
RNG SERVICES PROFILE: Moderate
Like Feuerpfeil, I do not use DT2W and I have not yet experienced any problems with the new Kernel. My Seeder app settings are identical to yours.

I've seeder app active with light profile and everything enabled. After each kernel flash I wipe dalvik and cache in recovery, before initially booting the system with the new kernel.
Edit: Concerning doubletap2wake: after longer sleep I often have to tap multiple times (more than 2) to wake up the phone. This is something I experienced with visi0nary's kernel as well. I guess it might be related to some deep sleep feature or something. But for me it DOES still work, I just have to tap more often in this situation.

Flashed it again, and I have frozen 2 apps: BlackScreen and ThePieApplication (idk the name for sure). This apps are in the ERAGON ROM. Maybe the first one was causing some errors? I really don't know. The second i just dont like lol .. anyways now i flashed your rom again (deleted cache and dalvik after flashig) and it seems to works good. I have just one thing that I personally dont like: The phone seems more "laggy" now. And by laggy - I dont mean that the games or the apps lag, it is just that when i push the POWER btn sometimes (when in deep sleep i think?) it takes 0.5 seconds to wake up. With the v.1.6.1 that was certainly not the case.
