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

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

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

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 :>

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:

Sucks to know bro. These chipsets are funny.
For those that can run 2.96GHz that was the only bug so far. Those that can't run it at all, that's something we'll look into and see if we can resolve. Some just can't male it there unfortunately.

Edit to what i previously posted i guess it only happens as soon as i set the voltage to 1.2V otherwise its fine in-till benchmarking which means it just cant handle staying at those high speeds on all cores i assume?

That's what I'm trying to figure out now lol. Seems like the case. Its me and DJ's first kernel so we're still learning stuff. Weird it works fine til benchmarking. Hopefully we find a solution real soon.

yeah but the voltage is a problem too! that could be a factor that some phones cpu isn't as good. try setting your voltage to 1.2V for 3GHz and see if it crashes.

After a day of running it seems this kernel could be a battery killer. My battery when down much faster if I we r email to use lean kernel... hmm and yes I didn't over clock and my voltages were the ones included.

What governor were you using? Amd youre on 9005 right?
I gotta figure out why some 9005 users are seeing battery drain. I'll check it out today.
Ok, here is what I have figured out. At least with my hardware anyway. I'm using the latest version of TricksterMod and this is what I can get. I can boot up @ 3ghz with my voltage at 1.2 ONLY if I set it manually to exactly that. 1.2. If I use the incremental voltage steps it puts me at 1215. No go. It locks up and reboots. But if I manually set it to 1.2 even, it boots, and I can run Quadrant to benchmark. I have been able to successfully apply all governers with a 2.956 clock and use 2 schedulers (row and zen, so far) Seems like anything over 1.2 volts and the max clock, it locks up and reboots. Being as though no two chips are the same, somebody may get a higher voltage/clock before lock up. Who knows. Anyway, it runs great so far. Haven't had a chance to test battery life. Will post that later. I upoaded a few screenshots of my benchmarks running these freqs/voltages. So far, great work guys! This can only get better from here :good:

Battery life, performance and optimization.Introduction
Every smartphone's user has the same problem. The battery life and the reactivity of the system. Not anymore with our kernel based on the great B14CKB1RD.
Our Kernel offer today probably the best compromise between these two points. Enjoy it ! :highfive:
This kernel will never have 30 governors or something. We want a light, fast and stable kernel.
The kernel is configured out-the-box for the best battery life and performance. You don't need to tweak it and and spent 2 hours to do that. But if you want to tweak some parameters, you can use the Synapse APP installed with the kernel.
Features
Based on the B14CKB1RD Kernel (include all features/optimizations from this kernel)
Governors available : Wheatley, Bacon, Intellimm, Intelliactive, Interactive, Ondemand, Optimax, , and Performance
Configured out-the-box with our recommended settings and fully compatible with the Synapse APP
F2FS Support for the /data /cache and /system
Responsiveness optizimation
Really light kernel
Debug/statistics disabled
Built with the christopher83's Toolchain (4.9.3 2015.09.02), especially optimized for the Cortex A15
Battery Optimizations (especially in deepsleep)
ARM Optimizations
Graphite Optimizations
Mode NEON/VFP
PowerSuspend
UnderVoltage for the CPU
Bricked Thermal
Sweep2Sleep
DoubleTap2Wake
Sound Control GPL 3.5
Stereo Call Recording Support
Enhanced Power Efficiency
Dynamic Read Ahead
Dynamic FSYNC
Fast Charge
Lot of more optimizations
Our recommended settings :
LG G2 D802
Sabersunset http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development/romkernel-sabersunset-1-2-t3028536
Efficient Kernel
Xposed for Lollipop with the Amplify module to block alarms and wakelocks (really important)
Just tick the "✓" button when you launch Synapse the first time
Weathley governor (better deepsleep with it)
50mv(-) to all steps (try 37.5(-) first)
Fiops / 2048
Fsync disabled
Westwood
300/2265600 mhz (min/max)
multi-core economy : 1
Max CPUs boosted at the same time : 2 (really lagfree UI)
Wakelocks blocked : NlpWakelock, NlpCollectorWakelock, RILJ
With this configuration, we lost 2% in 9hours on standby with wifi and synchronisation (gmail, whatsapp, messenger ...).
Screen on time : 7:40hours with moderate usage of Wifi, 30 min of Youtube, lot of Whatsapp, lot of internet (with Chrome), [email protected]%.

Hmm.. That sounds awesome. Giving a try right now. reporting in a few days
Congratulations to your work and hope to see even better battery life in the next versions
L.E. do you think I can get similar results with a different ROM? (P.S. SaberSunset has already reached version 1.9 )
I will try this on RR
I'll try it, sounds great!
I hope you will enjoy it :highfive:
I'm actually working for the 1.1.0 !
Any way to add other links for the download?
I would really appreciate it..
Will you be building for other variants?

Users are obviously free to experiment or use their own settings, but we are not responsible for your profit or loss. We do not support any MODs like AKT, LKT or other mods which may tinker with the default because of the kernel end modifications.
The kernel should work fine on most 4.4 Tree based ROMs. Only /factory mounted ROMs are supported from r3 onward. Syberia ROM is not supported since it is using a different PowerHal/Boost framework and thermal-engine setup.
If confused between EAS and HMP, choose EAS.
If you are on another custom kernel and wishes to try BubbleWrap, make sure that you at least dirty flash the ROM before moving.
Feedback is always appreciated, feel free to report bugs or any other issues.
Spectrum:
Stick to the default profile as much as possible, use the other spectrum profiles unless you are too unhappy with the default one[Balance]. The following profile description might help selecting the profiles:
Balance: Default profile, set for optimum battery life and performance. No set frequency boosts other than Dynamic Stune Boost.
Performance: Best performance out of these profiles, optimum for benchmarking if you are into it. Tuned for smooth UI. Employs all boost mechanisms, General, Input and Dynamic Stune Boosting.
Battery: Good for casual users who are keen to get the best out the battery. Performance is not that bad and can be a daily driver
Gaming: A profile that's somewhere in between Balanced and Performance. Employs Adrenoboost [Lvl. 3] along with other boosting mechanisms.
In short:
For Performance:
Performance > Gaming > Balance > Battery
For Battery life:
Battery > Balance > Gaming > Performance
Wow .... I heard that this kernel is from the developers of bfr kernel, if yes then i expect this to be great like bfr ... Gonna try soon
Wew so great to see 4.4 from you sur :laugh: @ajaivasudeve
Vendor deconfig??
Reserved for future.
Currently on moxie with arrow oreo.. awesome back up.
Best Kernel for any 4.4 rom currently, Gaming is better than Nameless, Moxie, F1XY, Prototype without heating. Performance is good. Multitasking ram management also good. BATTERY charging speed is good as well ;normally and while using phone also. Battery backup is good in normal usage (not have checked whole day SOT) , while gaming drainage rate is high. But still right now the best kernel with beast performance and good battery.
Does charging work when used to play games?

Notes:2. The kernel should probably work fine with most 4.4 ROMs [except VNDK builds maybe, where you might have some stuff broken]. When reporting issues, please make sure that you mention the ROM[with the build date] and the setup you are using, like if there are any additional MODs or setting changes from your end.

So this shouldn't would on aex 6.2?
Sorry for the noob question but I don't know what is the purpose of thermals, is it best to flash them too or only if needed? then I don't know in which cases they are need or not and if they are so why aren't they just included in the kernel zip and used only when needed?

You can flash them if you feel stock thermals are not doing enough to keep the device cool. If the stock thermals are doing just fine, you can choose to stick with them. BTW, I do recommend it to be flashed with the kernel.
Can you bring VNDK support?

You should try thermals, they are far better than stock.

Not all things would work as intended. So, for now, No.
The BubbleWarp Kernel is Just Awesome!
I reverted to AEX 6.1 and installed BubbleWarp thermals and kernel
Underclocked to 1920 and 1478
No heating or lag while playing pubg
Played 3 matches from 46% to 3% battery!
Using default profile
The battery life now seems to be same as in Oreo
Full battery life review coming soon

As the title quoted, the kernel only support the ROMs based on treble tree with 4.4 series of kernel lineup.
