Stock Voltage - Uses the voltage values from ORIGINAL HTC Kernel Source.
There are NO PERFORMANCE DIFFERENCE between the Under Volted and Stock Voltage versions!
Installation Instructions:
Here's a step by step instruction to install this kernel:
1. download the above file (via phone directly or to a PC)
2. copy the downloaded zip file to /sdcard/download/
3. Open ROM Manager and select "Reboot into Recovery" and select "OK"
4. Once in recovery, select "wipe cache partition", select "Yes", then select "advanced", then select "Wipe Dalvik Cache", then select "Yes" again. Once finished, click the back button to go back to the main recovery menu. On that menu, select "Install Zip From SDCad", then select "Choose zip from SDCard", then go to /sdcard/download and select the downloaded zip file and let it run its script.
5. Once the script is done, select "reboot system now"
Note: After FLASHING, the first reboot may take longer than usual, please be patient... After the first reboot, it may lag during initial load (let everything finish loading). Once everything is loaded and phone is ready for use, reboot the phone a 2nd time and the lag will be gone and everything should be silky smooth...

Just a heads up for anyone trying CPU Master, it reboots me as soon as I hit apply on any governor changes
The slider also doesn't allow you to choose any speeds between 192 or 1188.
Finally Fauxy! This is gonna be a real treat having your kernels for the S4G! Thank you!
nice to see you on the sensation faux love your work! can we expect to see some of your AOSP work and kernel support for 2.3.4 ROMs as well?
You mention its for 2.3.4 Builds but if it is based on htc sources this cant be? They only released 2.3.3 Kernel sources...?
Or did you hacked it to work with 2.3.4?

Hi XDA members and fellow Sensation users:
This is my tenth kernel hack. I want to thank Erasmux, and several others I cannot recall for inspiring me to venture into this unfamiliar territory for me.
What is a Kernel? The Kernel is the Foundation in which everything else builds upon in any software system.
[Car Analogy]: Kernel is like the Engine, Electrical system and the Transmission to a car. The Library, Framework and the Apps [AKA ROM] are the body frame and the rest of the Car.
THIS KERNEL is BASED ON HTC Source Code. So it is COMPATIBLE ONLY WITH HTC Gingerbread Sensation Builds.
Please DO NOT use any task killers, they DO NOT improve performance nor battery life. They INTERFERE with your phone's stability (more crashes) and App compatibilities (Forced Close).
MinMax Governor (Battery Saver)
This governor will try to minimize the frequency jumps/changes which cause voltage spikes/changes which supposedly drains more battery life... Supposedly designed to work with SetCPU... so give it a whirl...
SmartAss Governor (Balanced)
This governor has a built-in "profile" similar to SetCPU, so screen off will use lower clock rate thus conserve more battery, but it also has a fast wake up feature so that user interaction will not see the lag when switching from Sleep to Wake state.... (So SetCPU Profiles are sorta redundant when using this governor, you can still use SetCPU to OC to higher than default Clock frequency).
Interactive Governor (Performance)
This governor is designed to put more priority to User Interface (UI aka Apps) tasks, therefore appears more responsive then the traditional OnDemand governor. So if you want the smoothest UI interaction, this governor is for you...
Brain F*ck Scheduler - (BFS)
This scheduler is designed to be simple and speedy tailor specifically for user interface type systems such as desktop/smart phone devices where user interaction is MORE important than serving 1 million web requests (CFS, the default scheduler) at the same time (think of nimble desktop workstations vs large corporate servers).
SLQB - (SLAB allocator with Queue)
This memory allocator is designed for small number of CPUs system (such as desktop or smart phone devices). This allocator is design to be simple and it is optimized for using order-0 pages as much as possible (order-0 pages are the simplest therefore quickest type of memory in a Linux system to allocate). Not all kernels are using SLQB including CM7 main line...
Fair Budget Queue (BFQ I/O scheduler)
This I/O scheduler is an improvement on top of Completely Fair Queue (CFQ). CFQ is fair in terms of time but not in terms of throughput / bandwidth, so BFQ make sure that both time and throughput / bandwidth are balanced across all requests.
Installation Instructions:
Here's a step by step instruction to install this kernel:
[ CFS-Smartass ] (Mainline)
The File ==> Coming Soon <==
The File ==> Sensation Kernel 0.0.1 CFS Stock Voltage <==
[ BFS-Interactive ] (Enthusiast Edition)
The File ==> Coming Later <==
The File ==> Coming Later <==
Low Voltage - Under Volt the processor, therefore uses Less Battery, but NOT ALL CHIPS can handle Under Volt.. If you experience instability, try the Stock Voltage Version.
Stock Voltage - Uses the voltage values from ORIGINAL HTC Kernel Source.
There are NO PERFORMANCE DIFFERENCE between the 2 versions!
1. download the above file (via phone directly or to a PC)
2. copy the downloaded zip file to /sdcard/download/
3. Open ROM Manager and select "Reboot into Recovery" and select "OK"
4. Once in recovery, select "wipe cache partition", select "Yes", then select "advanced", then select "Wipe Dalvik Cache", then select "Yes" again. Once finished, click the back button to go back to the main recovery menu. On that menu, select "Install Zip From SDCad", then select "Choose zip from SDCard", then go to /sdcard/download and select the downloaded zip file and let it run its script.
5. Once the script is done, select "reboot system now"
Note: After FLASHING, the first reboot may take longer than usual, please be patient... After the first reboot, it may lag during initial load (let everything finish loading). Once everything is loaded and phone is ready for use, reboot the phone a 2nd time and the lag will be gone and everything should be silky smooth...
NEWS BULLETIN:
Version 0.0.1 is OUT!
1. Initial Kernel (no overclocking / undervolting yet)
Please don't hesitate to talk among yourselves and help each other out... The MT4G/XDA community is what inspired me to hack kernels for everyone since everyone here is nice and helpful to each other... Keep helping each other.... Famous proverb: It's better to give than to receive...
BUGS:
Not All CHIPS ARE CREATED EQUAL

[KERNEL] [2.6.32.24] [HAVS] [BFS] [BFQ] KiNgxKernel #11/#11 "Con is an Artist"
I DO NOT have an HTC Evo, but would LOVE to have one for development, and am saving for one. Bear with me until then I just wanted to say thank you to the few who have donated. I am almost there, any help is appreciated!!! I plan to have my HTC Evo fairly soon
DO NOT FORGET TO READ THE ENTIRE POST ON MY SITE, THERE IS IMPORTANT INFO
So, just as the name implies, this is an Evo kernel with SVS (Static Voltage Scaling) & HAVS (Hybrid Adaptive Voltage Scaling.) A huge thanks to estes for the havs code and raven for being the first to implement it into the nexus kernel. What this does is provide SUPERIOR BATTERY life with stability to boot. Just flash the .zip in your favorite recovery image. Enjoy and post any bugs with a logcat please.
This is compatible with any 2.2 Sense ROM
Code:
Also, a little info on HAVS and AVS:
The purpose of HAVS is to minimize the power used by the CPU by determining
and setting the optimal voltage. At the same time, the maximum voltage by
which HAVS can scale to is fixed to a specified voltage depending on the
CPU frequency in order to prevent scaling to a higher voltage than what is
normally used at a specified voltage. The optimal voltage is actively determined
for each frequency and temperature. HAVS actively adjusts the CPU voltage as the
CPU frequency and temperature changes.
Code:
While we are at it, some info on BFS:

BFS Changelog
Kernel #11
- HAVS is now OUT. We are not currently using it
- Using SVS for voltage regulation at the moment
- Battery life should be great now
- I forgot about an awful lot of longs and ints that will overflow on 32 bit now with u64 deadlines. Fix them.
- Add some macro tidiness
- Make sched_clock sanity checking robust and standardised, using jiffy
difference as upper limit, and use nominal 1us when difference cannot be
trusted.
- In layman's terms these are all MAJOR fixes to his BFS scheduler
- These fixes will provide a performance and stability boost
- Higher clockspeeds are more stable!
- More I will add
Kernel #10
- Performance boost!
- More stable due to BFS overhaul
- Patched up BFS scheduler to BFS 330
- Patched in *NEW* BFS TEST patch that applies over 330 (from CKolivas himself)
* Major overhaul of queued changes
* Micooptimise multiplications/divisions to be shifts where suitable
* Drop the "skip_clock_update" concept as we update the niffies each time we
update the rq clocks, thus we want to update it more often
* Add a local last_task variable to each runqueue which keeps a copy of the
last non-idle task that ran on this CPU. Use this value to determine that a
task is still cache warm on this CPU even if it has run elsewhere in the
meantime. This improves throughput on relatively idle systems with >2 logical
CPUs
* Change SCHED_BATCH tasks to refill timeslices and reset deadline every time
they're descheduled as they've been flagged as latency insensitive, likely
fully CPU bound tasks. This should decrease the impact running batch tasks
has on other tasks
* Bypass rechecking deadline when we know that prev will run again in schedule
* Change all deadline accounting to use nanosecond values
* Rework try_preempt
* MUCH MUCH more check my patch code if you please

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll wait until you put it in. Will look forward to updates on this.
ok guys kernel is live =)
let me know if you have any other questions
I'm done playing for the day but I'm def keeping an eye on this thread. I can't wait to see some real world test results. I have a feeling this thread is going to blow up by the time I get up in the morning.
While I would absolutely love HAVS, I also don't want to lose the modifications in netarchy's kernel with the FPS cap unlocked. Any way you could possibly integrate that into your kernel?
An update.zip would be grand, too.
I have netarchy kernel 4.0.3a with Fresh 3.1.0.1... can i simply flash this over it?

INSTALLATION
1. Install zip from TWRP Recovery
2. Follow the instructions, if you don't know what to do, use the preselected option
3. Reboot!
S-OFF required!
First boot will take a while. Let it load all the way, then let it settle in for a few minutes, then reboot again.
FAQ
Q. I installed ElementalX and now I'm stuck in a bootloop
A. Go to this thread and get S-OFF: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155071
Q. I installed ElementalX and now my phone is laggy/sdcard is corrupt/camera doesn't work/other random problem not related to the kernel
A. Please don't fill up my thread with vague complaints. As long as you pick reasonable voltage and frequency settings, this kernel is 100% stable and problem free. I know what I'm doing and I don't do anything to the kernel that will mess up your phone. If you have problems, it's because of something else you've done. If you think you've found a bug with the kernel, please include dmesg output or /proc/last_kmsg
Q. I installed ElementalX and I get random reboots
A. If the reboots occur when your phone is idle, increase your voltage or increase your max screen off frequency. If the reboots occur while you are using the device, scale back your overclock and/or increase voltage. If all else fails, choose the vanilla option.
Q. What if I am still having problems?
A. If you are having problems the key to getting help is to provide appropriate detail.
Number 1: Description of your issue
I'm most cases people in this thread will try and help you. The more information, the better chance someone in the thread will be able to help you.
If you can't be helped by one of the experienced ElementalX users it would generally be referred to the dev
Number 2: Details of installation options e.g.
- ElementalX 6.5 Vanilla
- CPU Max: 1.7ghz
- CPU Min: 384mhz
- GPU OC: On
- S2W: On
- fsync: On
- Zram: On
Number 3: Logs, refer to the following details on gathering appropriate logs
In the below example the adb path is c:adb
Open command prompt type cd c:adb
The following two commands can be used to provide logs to help troubleshoot slowdown/freezing issues.
adb shell top -n 1 > c:top.txt
adb shell dmesg > c:dmesg.txt
If you experience a non-user initiated reboot please follow the below steps to provide last_kmesg
* After reboot issue is encountered boot to recovery
* use the file manager to copy /proc/last_kmsg to sdcard/download/
* mount usb and copy it to your computer
* zip it
* post it with details of your issue in this thread.
* restore your nandroid and boot into your last stable config

NOTES:
Configuration
Your choices in the Aroma installer are used to build a configuration file. The config file is located at /etc/elementalx.conf. You can edit this file to change kernel settings. Whatever is set in this file will take effect when the device is booted (unless other scripts or apps interfere!)
The settings can be changed by editing /etc/elementalx.conf and rebooting. Advanced users can apply settings on the fly by running /etc/init.d/99elementalx as root.
There is no need to edit /etc/init.d/99elementalx. All settings are configured in /etc/elementalx.conf.
If settings are not sticking, make sure the file permissions for /etc/init.d/99elementalx are set to execute. Every time the settings are applied, a log file is created at /data/local/tmp/elementalx-kernel.log. Problems can be diagnosed by looking at the log file.
Please check to see if any /etc/init.d scripts or apps are interfering with your settings If you're on ViperXL, make sure your settings in Venom Tweaks are the same as the ones in /etc/elementalx.conf (for example, sweep2wake settings)
Kernel Tuner
You don't need Kernel Tuner because the ElementalX installer sets everything up automatically, but if you want to check or change settings, Kernel Tuner is recommended. Just be aware that Kernel Tuner is set by default to apply settings on boot, which can interfere with the settings you chose in the ElementalX installer.
Venom Tweaks force close
If Venom Tweaks closes when you try to access the CPU tab, go to Settings->Apps->Venom Tweaks and push the Clear Data button. This should fix the problem.
CPU Optimization
Vanilla: stock voltages, stock l2 cache frequency, stock bus bandwidth
ElementlaX: increases l2 cache frequency and bus bandwidth, allows you to choose voltage level in installer
Ultra: increases l2 cache frequency and bus bandwidth even more. May cause instability, please test thoroughly for stability if you use this option.
Overclocking
Overclocking (underclocking) is optional. Whatever frequency you chose in the installer will be set at boot for both CPUs. Frequencies can be changed any time using apps like No Frills or Kernel Tuner. WARNING: not all devices can handle overclocking. The stock maximum CPU frequency is 1.5GHz. In versions of the kernel prior to 6.4, the frequencies were labeled wrong so you won't be able to overclock as high with version 6.4+.
CPU voltages
CPU voltages can be changed with Venom Tweaks, Kernel Tuner or System Tuner. Be careful, lowering voltages could cause instability. If you have stability problems even at the highest voltages, try the vanilla version
Minimum CPU frequency
Sets the minimum CPU scaling frequency. 192MHz is the recommended default and should work fine on the vast majority of devices. The 384MHz option is available for devices that experience random reboots while the device is idle. It is recommended that you try increasing the minimum voltage by 25mV before changing the minimum CPU frequency.
Max screen off frequency
This sets the highest CPU frequency available while the screen is off. It is recommended to disable this for stability. Also, do not set this to 192MHz or 384MHz, as many devices experience random reboots at these frequencies. The default is 486MHz, which should be safe for most devices. If you experience random reboots while the device is asleep, set this to a higher frequency. This setting can be changed in /etc/elementalx.conf or using an app like Venom Tweaks.
GPU frequencies
3D GPU: 480 (overclocked) or 400 (stock)
2D GPU: 266 (overclocked) or 200 (stock)
Governors
Intellidemand is the default CPU governor. There are other governors included, however, intellidemend is recommended for best balance of battery life and performance.
Installing a new ROM
If you install a new ROM, it will overwrite /etc/init.d/99elementalx and /etc/elementalx.conf. The kernel will run perfectly fine without these files, but you will lose your settings and certain features.

Sweep2wake (S2W) allows you to wake up your device by swiping your finger across the capacitive buttons from left to right. Swiping from right to left will put it back to sleep (sweep2sleep). There are now options for sweep2wake/sweep2sleep, sweep2sleep only, and disabled. If you use ViperXL, make sure to enable sweep2wake in Venom Tweaks.
/sys/android_touch/sweep2wake
0=disabled
1=enable sweep2wake + sweep2sleep
2=enable sweep2sleep only
DoubleTap2Wake
DoubleTap2Wake (DT2W) allows you to wake the device by double tapping in the bottom inch or so of the screen, including the capacitive buttons. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake
0=disabled
1=enable doubletap2wake
Pocket Detection
Pocket detection protects against accidental wakes while S2W, DT2W or L2W are enabled and the phone is in your pocket. Pocket detection uses the proximity sensor. A few people have a problem with their proximity sensor that makes DT2W not work, so I've made an option to disable pocket detection. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/pocket_detect
0=disabled
1=enable pocket detection
Button Light Notification
With Button Light Notification (BLN), the capacitive buttons will blink on and off when you have a new notification. As soon as the screen comes on, BLN is canceled and the lights will no longer blink until you have another notification. Please note that if you have your screen set to turn on when a message arrives, you will not see the buttons blinking because once the screen comes on, the button light notification is canceled. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/class/leds/button-backlight/bln
0 = disabled
1 = BLN enabled
What is zRam
zRam creates a compressed block device in RAM that is used as swap. Although it claims some of your RAM as swap, everything written to swap is compressed. This increases the apparent memory available to the system and helps with multitasking. Swap files on disk are very slow, but with zRam the swap is on RAM so it can be read as quickly as regular memory. Even though the data need to be decompressed, modern CPUs can decompress quicker than if it had to be to read from disk. The penalty is cpu usage, which could drain battery; however, this is likely negligable in daily use. I didn't enable this by default because not everyone will want it. This is for heavy multitaskers and will allow you to quickly switch between more apps and have more tabs open in your browser without refreshes.
zRam is disabled by default. If you want to enable it, edit /etc/elementalx.conf
change ZRAM=0 to ZRAM=1 and reboot.
You can check if zRam is working by typing the command "free" into the terminal. You should see the total used and free swap. If these are all 0, then zRam is not enabled. Please ensure that other apps are not changing your minfrees, zRam works best with low minfrees and high swappiness.
NTFS support
This is for anyone who wants to use OTG to connect a USB stick or portable harddrive formatted with Microsoft's NTFS filesystem. You will need Stickmount or a similar app, HTC Sense+ won't detect NTFS.
Enable/disable fsync
Disabling fsync can increase filesystem performance. However, there is a small risk of data loss if the system suddenly crashes. If you can't afford to lose data, keep fsync enabled. Many custom kernel disable fsync, I leave it enabled by default for safety reasons.
XBox controller support
There is an experimental module that supports XBox gamepads, however, some people have reported that it draws too much power and doesn't work. I've suggested trying a powered USB hub, but still not sure if it works.

I don't have the source, all I can do is add modules. I don't know if wp can be disabled using a module. I'll look into it next week when I'm back from Christmas holidays. Starting tomorrow, I'll be away from any decent computer.

It would work on any jelly bean sense rom
Edit:Nevermind
How do we know if it installed properly, I didn't check the kernel name before the flash but it looks stock. Is this correct, and as you said apps are not showing the over clock.
I got a 6475 with no OC, forgot to do Antutu.
With the kernel I got: 6189 (I know quadrant can be inaccurate)
Antutu: 11659

EDIT: Got scores in the 7000's after some tweaking.
lsmod in terminal should show oc_mod. But right now, basically if you don't know how to check stuff like this you shouldn't install. My first step was getting a module to load, now I've got to get it working properly.
Nice will be watching to see how the this progresses

I used script manager to execute 40overclock and it says oc_mod exists already. And then permission is denied on the next operation. So if I have the oc_mod file it must have worked?

I used adb shell, su, then lsmod and I got the output:

So I guess I'm all good.

Thanks for a great JB kernel. Anyway to have 2 way call recording patch in the future version of ElementalX kernel as there isn't any patch for HTC ONE XL till now. Thanks in advanced and waiting for 2 way recording feature!

Just uploaded version 0.2
Should "just work" (init.d support is added)
The only feature is rudimentary overclocking still, I haven't a chance to work on any of the good stuff.

GPU Frequency Control:
You can manage the max frequency of the 3D GPU via sysfs.
The interface is located: /syst/kernel/gpu_control
There are two settings, currently only the gpu_3d_freq_phase works. I have not enabled 2D max frequency yet.
There are seven valid values for gpu_3d_freq_phase:
0 - 320Mhz
1 - 300Mhz
2 - 266Mhz
3 - 228Mhz
4 - 200Mhz
5 - 177Mhz
6 - 27Mhz
Setting a value outside of 0-6 will result in either a 0 or 6 being set. These values will reset to the default (0) at boot via the included init.d script 02gpu_control. You can change the max setting on the fly by editing the gpu_3d_freq_phase file directly, or just update the init.d script and reboot.
If in doubt, just leave it alone and your GPU will remain over clocked at 320MHz.

SWEEP2WAKE:
Sweep2Wake provides the ability for you to wake up your phone by sweeping your finger across the haptic buttons from left to right. You can disable this functionality via sysfs here: /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake (1 = on, 0 = off)

USB Fast Charge:
USB Fast Charge is a hotly debated topic. In short, it violates the USB 1.0 & 2.0 spec by drawing more than .500A from the two power wires in the USB interface. USB 3.0 supports up to .900A so it works just fine there.
This is a use at your own risk feature of the kernel. If you have a poorly made USB host controller, it could theoretically destroy it. Some USB host controllers are smart enough to either prevent the additional power draw, or simply prevent you from charging when you have it enabled.
If in doubt, don't use it.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
MSM MPDecision:
MPDecision, put simply is a better, more powerful way to hotplug your CPU cores across all governors. Primarily, this will determine when to shut off CPU1 and when to bring it online based on work queue load and time in queue. This is fully configurable via sysfs as follows:
startdelay = time until mpdecision starts doing it's magic (20000)
delay = time between checks (70)
pause = if something else plugs in the cpu, fall asleep for 5000ms (5 secs)
scroff_single_core = if the screen is off, don't plug in cpu1 (1)
enabled = enable(1) or disable(0) mpdecision. This does not affect scroff_single_core!
idle_freq = a value against that will be checked if a core +/- is requested. (384000)
nwns_threshold_up (down) = runqueue threshold to up or down CPU1
twts_threshold_up (down) = how much time passes before taking the related up/down action
max_cpus = maximum number of cpu's - just leave this one alone. mpdecision was designed for 4 core chips, i modded it for two

You bet, working on a fix for the OC frequencies - I think I just missed a few lines of code somewhere. I'm shooting to get that out sometime tomorrow, taking a break for the evening to chill out.
For now, please report in any other bugs. If possible, include logcats and kmsg files. Thanks!

Should be fine. That's what I have setup now.
Also, doesn't seem to be deep sleeping either. Might be related to the OC frequency issue.

System tuner says the clocks at 1.78 but stability test pegs at 1.56. Running smooth though. No issues with deep sleep here. How much did you drop stock voltages? The look pretty low already. Or it could just be my really bad memory. lol
Re: [KERNEL][JB 4.2-CM10.1] Moretz Kernel - OC - UV (Updated: 2.9.13) [TEAM ROOK]
Exactly what I have been waiting for. Thank you. I'll let you know how it performs tomorrow.

Thanks for this! Much smoother then stock. So far, no jitters during game play. Will test a bit and get back.
Oh ya, what happened to init.d folder?
Does this cmd delete the whole folder?
Code:
ui_print(" Clearing init.d..");
delete_recursive("/system/etc/init.d");

Working awesome for an alpha, no issues and smooth game play on order and chaos, was using pegasusq out of habit, switched to the tweaked ondemand and checking the battery drain today
Is the row scheduler not compatible with the skyrocket? Haven't ever seen it on the device anywhere and it seems to have great performance on my other devices, just food for thought I guess

Well, I certainly appreciate your enthusiasm sir. But I'm just a hack, I wouldn't consider myself to be a really good dev yet. I just happen to get some things right once in a while.

Voltages are stock across the board, use IncrediControl if you want to UV.

It will remove the contents of that folder, yes. I do that for this version because I don't want false alarms or conflicts with crap placebo init.d scripts. I'll put a couple back in later if I determine they are actually helpful / compatible with 4.2

Beast me, I'm not looking at adding stuff right now. Trying to work out OC frequencies and the lack of deep sleep first. Seems like everything else is working pretty well though.
I should get some time this evening to work on the frequency issue. I slapped in a bunch of changes along with that, so I'm going to back it out in the code and go back through it.
On the list ...
1. Fix OC
2. Fix deep sleep
3. Add GPU OC
4. Add some schedulers
5. Add in fast charge
6. Add in some other neato things
Based on that list, I wouldn't expect this to come out of Alpha for a good week. Just depends on how much time I can dedicate to it. In the meantime, keep reporting in any bugs that haven't been reported already.
Oh, and thanks for the positive feedback otherwise. I wouldn't daily drive this quite yet until the deep sleep is at least fixed, but I appreciate participation in the open testing so far
Edit:
Row is compatible, reading through the kernel commits - Cyanogen added it yesterday to the main repo. I'm working through the latest commits and applying them to my base. Unfortunately, git wouldn't let me fork the repo to do it the easy way ... so i have to get the updates through cherry picking.

Mines sleeping as well. AOKP 4.2 smartassV2, noop, UV'd by 100 across the board. Bluetooth and GPS both work. It's running pretty damn well for an Alpha. Nice work man.

The old rotation fix doesn't work. I used it as a baseline then copied the same files from the i727CM10.1 over to the t989AOKP4.2. Then put the CM10.1 kernel in the zip. That hosed wifi but fixed rotation. Then I just switched out the wifi libs. Now everything works great.

FAQs
Well lets begin, almost all features can be controlled using the TricksterMOD
How to access recovery?
Keep pressing volume down button when you see Thunderzap logo
Now special things about this!-
1. You can also use camera key to boot into recovery! hell yeah! BUT remember, NOT to use it for your first recovery boot. Make first recovery boot only using vol down key! Remember this. If you do so, phone will stuck up on ThunderZap logo and your key combo will get swapped and remapped to Volume up and you would need to use Vol up to boot into recovery until the next kernel flash.
2. You can also reboot to recovery from your Android OS directly! Yes I have done it! But same criteria as above! not to use that way for first boot. After you are done with first recovery boot you can use camera key, terminal way anytime!!
So how to use the terminal way?
Open terminal emulator[NOT adb shell]
Gain su permissions and type
Code:
start-cwm
And within a minute you will be in CWM!
How to determine which TCP congestion to use??

See above chart and decide which to use! But westwood has been set as default!
Some of them from above chart won't be present, so watch only those which are present in feature list.
Q. How to use vibration intensity control?
echo "your-value" > /sys/devices/virtual/timed_output/vibrator/level
Values range is 12-31. None other
Q. How to use ThunderSonic Engine?
It is a sound control driver. There are two interfaces which you can control
1. Headphone boost - I made this feature because louder volume than max volume in earphones rushes more adrenaline in me making music more enjoyable.
Turning this On will give you instant significant volume boost in earphones which is greater than what you get when the volume is max. Just make the volume maximum and turn this ON and you will notice it
How to turn on:
In terminal emulator/ adb shell, get su permissions and then type
Code:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/thundersonic_engine/headphone_boost
and use 0 to turn off
2. Speaker boost - In crowded areas I felt speakers of XL fall short in terms of volume magnitude. So I made this to increase speaker volume speakers beyond its limit and now my phone sounds even louder than those dirt cheap china phones
This is 8-leveled boost interface. That means there are 8 boost levels. The default is 3 on TZ
How to turn on
Code:
echo X > /sys/kernel/thundersonic_engine/speaker_boost
where X can be any value from 4 to 8 depending upon the volume boost you require To reset back to default use value 3
Use above features with caution. Using headphone boost for a long time may damage your ears. And do not use speaker boost for a long time. If for some songs you hear crackling of speakers then reset its boost level to 3 or a relatively lower level of 4 or 5
Q. How to use charger control?
1. AC current control: In times of hurry I felt the charging times to be too long and so I made this. With this you can control the charging current rate through wall charger.
Before doing anything you first need to enable the master switch of the control or else the values you write will be negelected
How to enable master switch
Code:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/charger_control/enabled
After this you can use custom current values like this
Code:
echo X > /sys/kernel/charger_control/custom_ac_current
where X can be any value in mA (Milliamperes) I use 1600 i.e 1600mA which completes my phone's charging from 3% to 100% in around 1 hour 30 mins.
The stock current ranges from 1000-1100mA and takes around 2 hour 30 mins to 3 hours. Avoid using values higher than 2200.
2. USB current control: Everyone knows the charging rate from PC via USB is damn slow. Many new PC's have newer USB ports which can offer current rates higher than 1500mA but still our kernel only pulls 500mA. I made this to control it yourself
As usual you need master switch enabled to write the new values.
How to use
Code:
echo X > /sys/kernel/charger_control/custom_usb_current
where X can be any value in Milliamperes. I use 1500 i.e 1500mA
Q. How to use GPU Voltage Control?
Currently there are no GPU voltage controlling apps. The upcoming ThunderZap control app supports that.
Obtain current voltage values
Code:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_mv_table
Output will be something like this:
945 mV
1050 mV
1150 mV
Change these values:
Code:
echo "930 1000 1100" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_mv_table
This will change the voltages as below
930 mV
1000 mV
1150 mV
Q. I am having abnormal battery drain
Most of the time the kernel isn't responsible for this.
a) Make sure you are on stock frequency of 1Ghz. Sometimes the frequency is getting overridden to 1.5Ghz even if you didn't set that. To avoid such situations use frequency lock option from Trickstermod kernel app.
b) The kernel is not pre-undervolted any more. You can undervolt it on your own. Optimum value is 75mV. Don't undervolt more than that
Q. How to use extra modules provided
Best way is to use init.d script to load them on boot.
e.g If you want to use the NTFS file system module. You have to first place the ntfs.ko module provided in /system/lib/modules. Then you need to create an init.d script in /system/etc/init.d with any name say 99modules with following code
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
insmod /system/lib/modules/ntfs.ko
Next you need to give that file all permissions and reboot the phone and you are done!
P.S: Loading external modules affects battery life of the phone.

Good work.
All the best.
Good job man.
Best of luck! :highfive:
Post #3 updated with all controlling stuff!
Enjoy!
I've some concerns :-
1) As you can see from screenshot, default boot frequency of cpu0 is 1188 MHz while of cpu1 jumps to 1566MHz on load.
This is one of few reasons I disabled overclock in my kernel. One should enable intelliplug and disable mp decision to fix this.
Code:
su
stop mpdecison
2) Eco-Mode? Isn't it for quad core devices? Turning it off disables two cores. And we've only two.
3) Intelliplug works well.
4) Your voltage table is wrong. 1242MHz runs at lower voltage than 1188MHz. It's also irregular.
for example all 384,432,486 MHz run at same voltages.
5) Your ramdisk.cpio contains another ramdisk.cpio + pack script. Remove these junks.
6) xz -e offers best compression ratio but it's way slower than lzop (which in turn has poorest compression ratio).
So, xz compressed kernel is light weight but takes longer time ( usually 3-4 seconds more to decompress fully) than lzop compressed one.
You can see benchmark comparsion of gzip,xz,lzma etc here
In all xz compressed kernel doesn't boot fast in any way.
That's it for now

1. True (I will be releasing a 1.2Ghz version of kernel tomorrow who are not that much concerned with gaming)
2. This is true as well. But this works with dual core too according to my last 20 days testing and I have noticed gradual improvement in battery backup. I will contact faux123 to reconfirm my observations.
4. Thanks! Didn't observe that. Will fix it with tomorrow's minor update

Quick fix for the issue 1 of cpu1 getting maxed out!
Do this- Change freq to any other step and put it back to original. Now try doing a heavy task and see where cpu1 is getting capped at!
Just try it out

May I ask for a simple explanation concerning intelli_plug?
So it is a hotplug alternative, that means it switches unused cpu-cores off. Which results in same speed and half battery - consumption in cost of stability if cpu is in heavy use? And Eco-mode keeps the second core switched off permanently, or nearly?
If I am getting this correctly, then we transform our device into a single-core phone (which would be good itself, we can easier the cpus use with greenify to reduce background processes, right?).
My questions are:
Can that harm the processor (if we dont overclock?) and
if we do not use Eco-mode, will we have the single-core-effect and lagfree games?

No, let me try.
Hotplugging means plugging out second core when not needed and plugging it in back when phone is doing some heavy work.
Consider few situations.
1. You are using a mere app like Instagram. In this case there is no need of second core and only first core can process the app smoothly. Here the second is asked to go offline and only first core runs.
2. Now you open NFSMW which is a heavy game. Now the phone understands that there is situation of heavy load, so it plugs in second core that is asks it go online and start sharing the workload from first core.
So this mechanism was managed by mpdecision named service previously. Intelli_plug is alternative mechanism to it. It is more efficient than mpdecision. That is improved algorithms of detecting whether second CPU is really needed or no. It determines that very intelligently and performs a very quick action providing much smoother User experience.
Now ECO-Mode , it just makes intelli_plug a bit lazy. It avoids plugging in second core for many situations and forces first core to do all work as far as I observed. It does plug in second core when phone is in very need of it. This saves a lot of battery.
And no, these features do not cause any harm to hardware because mpdecision does same thing but inefficiently.
I hope everything is clear here.

Don't turn both of them off, you will face heavy battery drain. Turn off mpdecision and turn on intelli_plug
And switch for intelli_plug is there in trickstermod in special tab.

Everything from flar2's amazing kernel (Gboost removed in favor of interactive and hotplug cpu control. Not necessary with this setup)
Franco's mako_hotplug
*cpu-boost* (Removed currently)
Franco's enhanced interactive governor set to default (Tweaked settings thanks to Dan)
NTFS support
Many other enhancements not normally added to sense kernels that I've seen

INSTALLATION
1. Install zip from recovery
2. Follow the instructions, if you don't know what to do, use the pre-selected options
3. Wipe cache/dalvik cache
4. Reboot
It is recommended to disable or increase the screen timeout in TWRP recovery. If the screen timeout is enabled in TWRP, there may be a black screen after exiting the Aroma installer. This is nothing to worry about. Simply hold power and volume down and volume up buttons until it reboots. The installation will be fine. If things get stuck in aroma, simply do this reboot method and immediately hold down to get to bootloader mode, then select recovery and start from the beginning.

Sense 5.0.1 & 5.0.2
GPE 6.0
NOTES AND OTHER IMPORTANT STUFF YOU SHOULD KNOW!!!
ElementalX Configuration File
Your choices in the Aroma installer are used to build a configuration file. The config file is located at /etc/elementalx.conf. You can edit this file to change kernel settings. Whatever is set in this file will take effect when the device is booted (unless other scripts or apps interfere!)
If settings are not sticking:[*]Make sure you have busybox installed correctly and updated to the latest version[*]Make sure the file permissions for /etc/init.d/99elementalx or 99msx are set to execute.[*]Check to see if any /etc/init.d scripts or apps (such as Kernel Tuner or TricksterMod) are interfering with your settings.
ElementalX Log File
Every boot, a log file is created at /data/local/tmp/elementalx-kernel.log or msx-kernel.log. This file shows the date and time and all settings that have been applied. Use this to verify and troubleshoot configuration options. Also, in this file is your devices PVS number. Please refer to the links down below as to what the heck the PVS means. Helps with troubleshooting OC/voltage related reboots device specific. Not all devices were created equal!
Overclocking
Overclocking is optional. The installer lets you choose the maximum frequency. Whatever frequencies you chose in the installer will be set at boot for each CPU. Not all devices can handle overclocking. I don't recommend overclocking, this device is fast enough. If you overclock, the CPU frequency will likely be throttled due to heat. I recommend the stock frequencies, as this device is plenty fast.
CPU voltages
The installer allows you to choose from several undervolting options: stock, -15mV, -30mV, or -45mV. This only undervolts the lowest frequency, which happens to be the frequency used the most, and this is safer. Be careful, lowering voltages can cause instability.
gboost
gboost enhances gaming performance by giving a slight boost to cpu frequencies when the graphics load is high (e.g. while gaming). It should have no effect on battery life during regular usage, so it's safe to leave it enabled all the time.
fsync
fsync can be disabled if you're looking for the last ounce of performance. I recommend leaving it enabled as there is a slight risk of data loss if your phone shuts off unexpectedly before filesystems are synced.
Installing a new ROM
If you install a new ROM, it will probably replace this with the stock kernel and will definitely overwrite /etc/init.d/99elementalx and /etc/elementalx.conf so you will lose your settings and certain features. So always reinstall the kernel after installing a ROM.
Sweep2sleep
Sweep2sleep allows you to put your device to sleep by swiping right to left across the bottom of the screen where the back, home, recent buttons are. I find this useful since the stock motion gestures do not provide a good way to turn off the screen.
/sys/android_touch/sweep2wake
0= disabled
1= sweep2sleep right enabled
2= sweep2sleep left enabled
3= sweep2sleep left and right enabled
USB fastcharge
USB fastcharge is optional. This will allow you to charge at a faster rate when connected to a USB port. The default limit for USB ports is 500ma, this increases it to 1100ma. Be sure that the computer/laptop/whatever you are plugged into can handle it. Some will automatically cap it at 500ma. Please note that this does not force AC charge mode like previous implementations of force fastcharge. Your battery setting will still say USB mode. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
Wake Gestures
There are three modes
Mode 1: Stock Motion Launch Gestures
For stock motion launch gestures, /sys/android_touch/wake_gestures, /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake and /sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake must all be set to 0. Enabling any of these overrides the stock gestures. Obviously Motion Launch Gestures must be enabled in the system settings.
Mode 2: Remove motion requirement
For this, you must set /sys/android_touch/wake_gestures to 1 and enable at least one gesture in /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake or /sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake and Motion Launch Gestures must be enabled in system settings. In this mode, when you sweep or doubletap, the appropriate input events are generated and acted upon the EasyAccessService (i.e., the system app that handles gesture actions).
Mode 3: Traditional S2W/DT2W
In this mode, wake gestures and actions are handled entirely by the kernel. The gestures will turn on the screen and that's it. For this, you must set /sys/android_touch/wake_gestures to 0 and enable at least one gesture in /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake or /sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake. It doesn't matter if Motion Launch Gestures is enabled or disabled in system settings, the gestures don't interact with it in this mode.
Options
For modes 2 and 3, there are several options.
Sweep2Wake
Gesture........Value
Sweep right......1
Sweep left........2
Sweep up.........4
Sweep down.....8
Add up the values for each gesture you want to enable and put the total in /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake. For example, to enable all gestures, the value is 15 (1+2+4+8). To enable sweep right, sweep left and sweep up, the value is 7 (1+2+4)
DoubleTap2wake
Set /sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake to 1 to enable DT2W, and set to 0 to disable it.
Pocket Detection
Set /sys/android_touch/pocket_detect to 1 to enable pocket detection, and set to 0 to disable it. Pocket detection is experimental right now, I'd say it's about 90% functional, but there is an occasional bug where it either doesn't work or works too well.
Vibration Strength
Haptic feedback can be enabled for the wake gestures in /sys/android_touch/vib_strength. This setting takes a number between 0 and 60. Default is 20, which is the same vibration as the stock gestures. Setting this to 0 disables haptic feedback.

CHANGELOG (Cliff-Notes) Here's a GDoc for Latest
If this is first time flashing these updated packaged kernels, please dirty or full wipe flash the rom you’re on, let it boot to system, then reboot to twrp and flash one of these kernels. Also recommneded to flash ROM’s boot.img or just dirty flash if switching between these kernels.
Feb 27, 2015 - Lollipop
All compiled with latest linaro 4.9.3 prerelease toolchain and are all also packaged with anykernel method to allow for zImage and dt.img injection into rom’s stock boot.img, thus keeping ramdisk with any specific optimizations made for that exact rom. Also anykernel script now used to inject kernel settings script, formerly referred to as init script, into ramdisk to be loaded without need for init.d, and thus no need for setting selinux to permissive (Thanks Flar2).

Great info to actually read and know!
Hypernova version has all kinds of stuff that's been added from the good @franciscofranco, and the most important and amazing, IMHO, is the mako_hotplug_driver. With this, we have eliminated most governors, and now exclusively run interactive. We now also have some extra options with this interactive governor that we can set to customize the user experience smoothness, and battery life. Down below is how to work init.d scripts, which is suggested as a great set it and forget it method, but if you are trying to mess with things quickly and in user land with an app, you will have to use francos. Unfortunately, our phone is only supported by the paid version also, so looks like it's time to open the wallets and show your appreciation! Bought this personally as soon as I got the hotplug up and running. 100% worth it.
Advanced Interactive Governor Tweaks; Buttery smooth and insane battery life!
Here's some info on the pieces used from his kernel, and the app, and the guy himself it seems.
Code:
Information about the kernel
People generally change kernels for battery savings and to add features the stock one doesn't offer.
Franco's kernel has several advantages over the stock one in terms of battery saving saving features,
one of my favourite being the removal of MPdecision which in lay-mans terms changes the min and
maximum speed the CPU can run at based upon live battery temperature checks. Franco's hot plug
driver always keeps 2 cores online and always them to scale from 300mhz to 2.3ghz and based upon
load conditions will online cores 3 and 4 if required. When you touch the screen the screen the CPU
speed is boosted to approximately 1.5ghz for just over a quarter of a second and when load is reduced
the CPU speed is able to lower quickly back to lower speeds thanks to his tuned interactive
governor. Franco has created a governor for the GPU named interactive which works very much like
how the CPU equivilant does. Franco has added some newer drivers for WiFi which also helps reduce
idle battery drain while your on a busy WiFi network. Franco has also added an interface where you
can boost microphone, speaker and headphone gain levels for audio enthusiasts as well as an
interface to allow screen calibration and load pre set profiles to improve your experience with how
your display looks! There's clock speed control, voltage control, governor control, hot plug control.
You get the idea its full of cool features which can be controlled with the paid Franco.Kernel

Here are some lines I've found around the interwebs as a reference for myself for some time now. All of this is set, but hey, it never hurts to learn how it all works behind the scenes.
This is not a shell script, and cannot be run as one as-is; it's just a bunch of commands. UV should never be set with init.d in case they are unstable.
These are old values, some may be good, some may not. Please ask, or do some research on what is suggested for current cpu and phones.

best min frequency:
lowest possible setting (300mhz in case of MSM8974)
i highly recommend to run those values (exept if you are actually playing demanding 3d games).
use trickster mod frequency lock feature to do so. you will experience amazing battery life.
how to get the maximum battery life:
if you have a MSM8974AB pvs 6 for example, try the following steps:
try the next higher pvs levels (pvs7). don't try AC pvs values on AB chips.
AB chips are binned for lower frequencies while AC are binned for higher frequencies (duh).
so if you have a AB chip, work your way up the AB pvs values until you have freezes or similar and move back.
if you have a AC chip, work your way up the AC pvs values etc...
if you found highest setting that does not cause any problems after intensive testing and usage:
congratulations, you did it.
how to get the maximum frequency:
first try higher than stock maximum clock and see how it behaves.
if you don't reach your desired clockspeed, try the next lower pvs setting of your chip. yes, i said LOWER.
this gives the processor more voltage to reach higher overclocks.
i don't recommend it tho since we all want our phones to last as long as possible usually.
Thank you very much to @flar2 for all his work, and assisting people like me to port it to a device that otherwise would have no such love!

First. And thanks for this. Been looking for a new kenel to try.
What is a good app to use to modify CPU setting?
Also, is there a way that you could post recommended settings to use with this rom?
I'm glad to see another rom for this device. Thank you!

Trickster Mod is pretty good.
I just flashed the kernel, so far so good. I've been waiting for a kernel like this to drop for VZW Sense. Currently I'm running stock speeds, -15mV undervolt, no throttle and Multicore Power Saving 1. I think its going to be good.
Nice Scott, This is a very nice kernel. Here is a little hint too for you guys if you want total control over the CPU freq pick max frequency when you go thru the installer. Then after installation with file explorer go to system/bin and look for pnpmgr. Either just delete it or rename iwith a .bak at the end of it. Every time you flash the kernel this will be replaced back in system/bin.
What this does is allows the freq to stick on all 4 cores for example if you choose max freq in installer and use trickster to lower the freq you will notice that the other 3 cores will still go above what you have set the freq at. Another example is you will notice that your min freq will sometimes be higher than 300 MHz.
There is no ill side effects deleting this it just stops the Freq from doing what pnpmgr is telling it to do and allows you to tell it what to do.
So this is why I choose max delete pnpmgr and set the freq how ever I feel and don't worry about the freq changing on me.
Sorry for the long post MassStash [emoji12]
Awesome, thanks for dropping the info in here too bro!
Thanks !! Been looking for a Sense kernel I could use fauxsound on and this is it !! Thanks again !
Not sure how this works, but since only 4.4.2 is posted, will it hurt anything if I flash this on my firmware updated VZW M8? just want to do some testing while I wait for 4.4.3 of this kernel. Thanks

I can tell you that it really doesn't like ViperOne 2.4 which is a 4.4.3 base. Very slow and laggy, lots of reboots. Works great on ViperOne 1.8 which was a 4.4.2 base.
HTC needs to drop that kernel source fast. I've been so excited to having OC, UV, and especially fast charge that I'm not leaving 4.4.2 until Mass works some magic for 4.4.3.
This will work with any Sense ROM? (I use CleanROM.)
Also, about call recording, that means recording is built in, or it will work with an app? I have call recording but it requires speakerphone. Will this allow recording with Bluetooth?

Agreed, I need more 4.4.3 kernels to play with.
Digitized from my M8 directly to your eyeballs.

Yea, should work with any Rom 4.4.2 based. It's call recording support, so I believe so. The apps capability may also matter of course tho
Just installed it, stock options all the way. The M8 is the first phone I've had where I haven't thought, "This could be faster." And I don't play really intensive games, so I just left it all alone.
I want to say it feels snappy, but I know it'll take a day or two for the kernel to really settle in.
Thanks man
The one thing I didn't like about my M8 was that there wasn't a decent kernel to install on it. I nudged flar2 to come over, but there was no budging him. This is exactly what I was hoping for.
Since I've had a few minor issues with kernel flashing in the past, is there a flashable version of the stock kernel anywhere that I can keep on hand before putting this on my phone?
Thanks

Like the OP says, I'm gonna build out stock and post, just haven't had time to yet. Wanted to get the goods out first, and if need be you can dirty flash a Rom or somthin ya kno? Looks like I may have some time today prior to work, so ima try and get that out here for ya.
Just a quick question.
I thought I read before that the major difference between at&t/intl kernels and verizon is the partitions are in different places. Is this the case? If so, we wouldn't necessarily have to wait for VZW to release the 4.4.3 source, correct?
