this is my compiled kernel, builded from samsung source code (GT-S5360_GB_Opensource_Update2.zip). please read this whole post before you install this kernel in your device and don't expect something "WOW" from this kernel since its only my kernel for my daily usage.
the main interest of this kernel is to build a kernel which:
1. compatible to all rom (custom n stock)*.
2. simple, light, yet still customizable
3. save more batteries
4. decent performance
if you're looking for a kernel as described above, then this thread will give what you want.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. please don't ask anything about CWM. I prefer to never put it on my kernel.
2. trying to fix the 3rd freq but still no luck. we have 312-x-624-832 freq but the (x) freq is still buggy and imperfect. I think we need some help to fix it. already tried with 416, 442, 468, 520 but the bug is still there.
3. sorry, no a2sd support at this moment. you can use dsixda's kitchen or harish's tools to build a kernel with repencis's ramdisk to make this kernel support a2sd by yourself. the good thing is that your a2sd will work but it will also make your device boot (a lot) longer. I prefer to not use it on my kernel since I never use a2sd.
4. I give you three 'cats' gov in this kernel
powercats = lazy --> performance
blackcats = smartassv2 --> balanced setting
activecats = intellidemand --> battery saver
they have been tweaked and renamed just to make you easier when choosing the govs.
5. if you have a2sd running in your device, please uninstall it before installing this kernel. or else, you'll get bootloop
changelog
v0.1 :
first released version
v0.2 :
- swap
- ext4
- more iosched
- optimized conservative for battery saving
- ciffs (not really needed but it will be usefull if someone might want to use it)
v0.3 :
- new freq configuration (312-468-624-832). less sudden jumped out freq from 312 to 624 but it still imperfect yet.
- new govs, wheatley removed. now conservative is set as default for battery saving option.
- configured iosched, sio as default.
- now it use a part of koneu patch to fix deep sleep problem
v0.4 :
- minor tune on the kernel source and configuration
- as requested, OTG stuff added**.
v0.5:
- minor tune on battery management
- tun.ko build in
- few sound API and driver added
- as requested, NTFS modules built in
v0.5.1:
- lil bit tuning. trying to fix ntfs problem
- KSM for page merging support
- HID support
v0.5.2:
- alternate version of 0.5.1 without any OTG related stuff
v0.6.9:
- 6 frequencies
- setting for conservative and blackcats modified to match the new freqs.
v1:
- 5 frequencies. 780mhz almost never used so I removed it (468 is a buffer to prevent the freq suddenly jump to max freq. it actually working at 312mhz)
- HID driver removed (you don't even know what it is)
- few API removed for lightweightness
- CIFS removed since almost no one use it.
- deepsleep bug from v0.6.9 fixed
- screen problem fixed (never happened on mine but need report from users)
- battery APM
v1.1
- black screen bug fixed
* CM is not supported. sorry.
** OTG stuff still untested. the driver and NTFS modules required is inside it but I don't have the equipment to test it.

IMPORTANT STUFF: INCOMPATIBILITY ISSUE REPORT
# DXLF deodexed ROM (reported count: 1)
reason : error due to tweak inside it. already fixed.
please report here if you find my kernel doesn't boot. specify your system in details like : the rom, tweaks, a2sd/non a2sd, kernel version. I'm trying my best to make this kernel compatible with all rom (except CM). all kernel kernel here is already tested in my device before I uploaded it. however, my work might not perfect yet so that it might won't boot in several ROM.

kernel source link: http://www.mediafire.com/?bgh79kbcof9jctf (it only contain the modified files. you need to download the whole source code from samsung at opensource.samsung.com. I'm using update 2 for european region).
Finally
BTW Freq,Governors,IO working?
Will test now
Edit : Sio not included, noticed Speed in booting, nice Kernel, expecting more, but not too much..LOL

yes, i was on ubuntu 12.04, but i recently formatted my PC to Windows since i need it for school for my class presentations, i have a lot of work and i also need it for my part time job, so basically ubuntu was eating space, so switched to windows for a while, will be going back to ubuntu next year after graduation:highfive:
Noticed that frequencies 416 is rarely used
from 312 it jumps to 624 and rarely on 416..observation only, will test more
yup...416 is tend to not stable and it easily jumped out to 624. thats a bug from 4 freq mode using 0x0d. it can solved but we should underclock it too 104. its not a good option for me.
Wow downloading!!!!!

@marco: that freq isn't fixed yet. the benchmark and bogoMIPS score tend to give unstable value between 416 and 624. I think the freq for 0x0d isn't 416. it might a lil bit higher than it.
You could try 520…
Awesome. Flashing right away. Kuros stuff is always awesome. Was expecting this kernel. Thanks man
@marco: yup...I'll try that later. now I'm stil experimenting with something else.
@hitme: this kernel only give some basic stuff. it can't be compared to maroc's, repencis's, savie's or marco's kernel.

Thats exactly what I want. I dont use a2sd/swap and dont like ext4 auto mount. Was using rev54 savies till now as it has the exact one. Used rev 60 v2 for some time(it had ext4, inbuilt CWM etc) but it was draining battery some what since it got ext4 and inbuilt CWM etc. I need a kernel which is light, fast, battery saving and I only want droidwall. So this one exactly suits me
As far as CWM is concerned, as we can flash the same with just two clicks why so much rush to integrate to kernel? Its best not included imo
this kernel is already support swap and ext4 partition. I never used it but I think it will be usefull for someone who might want to use it. I'm still testing several stuff with the gov here and io sched here. got some interesting gov but it doesn't work at this moment. I'll upload it when I finished with this one.
EDIT: this kernel was my last stable kernel built. I can't clearly remember all stuff inside it. can you tell me the govs inside it?
Hmm then this isn't a basic kernel just flashed it and looks good. I'll give my detailed report later
Related
There are many great kernels for the Y floating around. I stopped working publicly on this one.
Disclaimer:
I'm not responsible for any damage done to your phone.
Use the following materials at your own risk only!
Read the whole post carefully before asking me why your phone lags at 156 MHz and why it force reboots when using BaCeM-tweak.
Main Idea:
No support for filesystems your device doesn't use.
No I/O schedulers and frequency governors you will never use.
The first kernel which underclocks reliably with included undervolt.
No buggy Busybox and Superuser included which are in any viable custom ROM anyway.
Based on the Linux kernel source code released by Samsung and the stock ramdisk.
Bugs: (All fixed!)
(fixed)Underclock is unstable, sometimes the right MHz value applies and sometimes it doesn't - sometimes it even applies to the 312 MHz setting and sometimes the conservative governor won't leave 208 MHz no matter what you do unless you tell it to via (for example) No Frills CPU control.
(fixed)[416 MHz is now below 312 MHz - still working on it…] - now a feature!
(fixed -thanks to kurotsugi and irfanbagus-)You have to use BaCeM tweak by irfanbagus to enable ondemand governor
([email protected]/7) Deep Sleep doesn't work
If you find any new bugs, tell me and I will try to fix them.
Features:
156 MHz - 312 MHz - 624 MHz - 832 MHz frequency scaling!
That means it's a clean underclock!(=laggy but cool) Note: System clock may lag behind (but will catch up) if you lock the CPU on 156 MHz and put a big workload on it (no idea why you would work at 156 MHz, just noticed it when benchmarking, maybe it was also caused by the other running apps)
Modified CPU driver to undervolt automatically.
Modified SDHC driver to allow deep sleep.
init.d support (V6 SuperCharger, a2sd, etc.)
iptables (firewall) support (without logging)
Modified conservative frequency governor optimized for battery (I think that's sufficient. I thought about adding smart***V2 instead, even had it implemented in a version I didn't publish. But then again, conservative does the same job and is smaller than smart***V2.)
SIO I/O scheduler
If you find any new features, tell me and I will add them to the list.

ATTENTION
This kernel is incompatible with BCM-tweak and BaCeM-tweak! Do not undervolt - the CPU driver is modified to undervolt automatically. Your phone will hang and force reboot if you undervolt it any further.
It is compatible with all other modules, including savie's governor and I/O scheduler mods.
If you want a less aggressive (less laggy) configuration for the conservative governor, a flashable zip can be found here.
Downloads:
These two files are constantly being updated as long as I am not satisfied. Feel free to get the thanks flowing. ^^
The kernel: boot.img (Version Oct 24 @ 10:02:30)
Use SGYbiCWM in CWM to flash it. (Note: You should flash SGYbiCWM two times (without reboot) for the boot.img to stick.)
Use CPU Spy to check your current version. (If you are using it and are not sure if you have to update.)
Refer to the repo for a patch file with the complete list of changes I applied to the sources.
Please be aware that the patch file is my property and you may use it in other projects but please give me credit.
If you do not know what a patch is, then you do not need it.
Thanks for pointing that out, I.M.G
first blood... what's the features?
init.d
iptables(without logging)
ondemand governor
deadline scheduler
312 - 416 - 624 - 832 MHz frequency scaling (will possibly include UV and minimum brightness in the sources)
But first you should check if it actually boots

If it doesn't boot I'll probably have to re-compile all the modules in the ramdisk. So don't let me down
Doesn't work for CyanogenMod(stuck on black screen,probably bootanimation) :s

Kernel built from cm kernel source on git hub.

Make file edited for 2.6.35.7 kernel.
It is strictly for cm. Testers reported waiting for device error.
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app-developers app
I'm not sure if we can make a kernel directly from cm source. you can start with samsung's source code then integrate some of the cm component into it. if the kernel version is same, basicly both of them isn't different. however, we still need the driver and and some device spesific source code which can only obtained from samsung's source. that's why we should start from samsung's source code. one more thing...we can't use cm ramdisk since samsung kernels are unique, the recovery stuff is stored inside the ramdisk. in order to make a bootable kernel you'll need sgy's ramdisk.

I used samsung ram disk.
Kernel image was from cm but as close to stock as possible.
Even stock kernel image had same problem. Not booting.
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app-developers app
lets do a simple test. try to build a kernel from stock samsung source with irfan's guide. see if it can boot.
Could you give it another shot? Link still the same in OP. Samsung sources are so ****ed. But I think the problem is not due to the sources but my set up.
I'll just share my patch file with you so you can try compiling the zImage ('cd' to common and do a 'patch -p3 < koneu.patch').
Ramdisk is stock with CM's sysinit in /sbin and init.rc modified to execute it to assure init.d support. Maybe this is actually the problem. If this version doesn't boot either I'll remove sysinit from /sbin and use /system/bin instead.
Please be aware that the patch file is my property and you may use it in other projects but please give me credit.
Included in this patch (has to be applied to unmodified Samsung sources or some parts will bug(not the important ones though)) :
- custom .config
- 312 - 416 - 624 - 832 MHz frequency scaling (original idea by savie but didn't provide a patch afaik )
- CPU stats file fix (by irfanbagus)
- modified backlight driver to allow lower screen brightness (original idea by mikstev, bugfixed and included into the sources by me)
Please tell me (and also send me the zImage ) if you got it to boot!
Section mismatches are just so damn hard to fix…

I think I may have got a solution.
My z image is only for cm 7 as it is compiled from source.
I need a stock ram disk which I am pulling from my device. Lets see how it turns.
If you need a working stock z image, I already have one. About 3+ mb stock image.
You need it ? I'll upload it if you want.
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app-developers app
Is it a self-compiled stock zImage or a zImage from a stock boot.img?
If it's a self-compiled stock zImage you can probably apply my koneu.patch to the stock sources and compile it. The changes are really very few and I think if compiling works for you the zImage will boot.
If it's a zImage from a stock boot.img I won't need it, I got plenty of those

FAQ's
FAQ:
1) Do not use 3rd party init.d scripts! If you wish to use any ask in the thread. I will tell you if you can.
2) How to flash the Kernel?
A: Flash the zip via CWM ... duhhh! :victory:
3) Why only 4 governers ?
A: Too many Governers bloat the Kernel, many are quite similar.
Best Governer for Battery: Conservative
Best Governer for Performance: Smartass2 or Performance
4) Can you add support to turn off one cpu core?
A: You don't need to do it manually, Hotplug governer knows when to turn off one core.
5) Will you overclock more?
A: No, 1.2 Ghz is enough. We wan't stability and not problems.
6) I got X bug, I got Y bug.
A: I will fix it, recreate the problem and give me a logcat. Remember, it may take time and testing to fix a bug since I do not have the device.
7) Will this support CM in future?
A: Ofcourse! I will also be helping in CM development soon.
8) My phone does not enter deep sleep.
A: Some app is constantly waking up your phone.

Great one buddy. Unfortunately over CM10. will b waiting for CM10 kernel. thanks again.:fingers-crossed:
Great work Buddy :good:. Cud u add the stopbootanimation service at end of script in init.rc so that v can use this kernel for custom bootanimation.:highfive:
thanks
thanks buddy, nice work, all feature sounds great :good:
I particularly like of have only 4 governers which is simple and useful , too much confuse most of the time. :laugh:
thanks again and keep it up :good:
I wish u had kept interactive governer. Anyways, will try this after college.

No. Currently this does not support custom boot animation which if u flashed on angeek's rom will result in bootanimation loop.

@Adi_Pat: To make the kernel compatible with CM10, do the followings:
1. Implement vibrator fix. (https://github.com/epsylon3/android...mmit/720914d5009039d3ba9898361eea1ad8ab09d326)
2. Add raw KXTF9 accelerometer sensor. (https://raw.github.com/epsylon3/android_kernel_samsung_i9103/gingerbread/drivers/input/misc/kxtf9.c Put it into drivers/sensors, modify Makefile and KConfig accordingly and enable it in defconfig.)
3. Take the ramdisk.
You don't have to compile two different kernels for the two roms, only change the ramdisk. The kernel works quite well in hybrid mode with the modifications included.
Also, if you have time please include these patches into your kernel. I'd really appreciate them. Thanks!

Hi Ketan, Are you using Adi's kernel on miui rom? or CM10? was curious if it works fine on Paraj's miui rom.
Base: CM10 JellyBean
Kernel: Nibbles v0.1.3
Installer: Aroma
Source Sync & Build Date: 1.05.13
Release Date: 1.05.13
Release Version: v1.6
Packed full of yummy goodness, stability and speed, this ROM is intended to be a daily driver. This is not a test, experiment or buggy piece of nonsense. I started with CM10 Jellybean and added numerous enhancements to improve speed, stability and battery life. Installation is a breeze with Aroma, choose which options and applications you want to have - or run it again to install any apps you may have missed (without having to re-flash the ROM).
Please read the first three posts completely, then read them again before you flash this for the first time. Any notable bugs are located in the post below. If you experience any issues that have not been reported already, please post to the thread. Thanks!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Installation Made Easy:Just download the zip and flash it. The Aroma installer will guide you through a multitude of options, including different launchers, application choices and system options. If you prefer a no fuss installation, there's even an option for a pre-configured base installation. Lastly, if you decide to install any apps you previously chose not to, simply flash the zip and choose the application installer option.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Included Applications:Google Apps 4.1, ROM Manager, Root File Explorer, Accuweather, DSP Manager with BEATS Audio, Goo.im and more! The ROM also includes the new UCLK4 radio as an optional installation.
Under the hood are numerous script tweaks, system tweaks and enhancements to balance performance, stability and usability.

Nibbles Kernel:Up to and including Nibbles v1.4-S, I've been including the TFQ-LZ kernel by thomas.raines. Starting with Nibbles v1.5-S, there is an entirely new kernel dedicated to powering the Nibbles ROM. The Nibbles kernel includes a LOT of new features that cater to all users who want to get the most out of their device. I've included many popular CPU Governors and I/O schedulers to support a wide variety of uses. Additionally, I've made lots of other fundamental changes to the kernel to better balance battery and performance (well beyond what you can do with a handful of scripts) as well as implementing over clocking the CPU to 1.782GHz, Under/Over Volting the CPU at each frequency step and over clocking the GPU.
CPU Governors: intellidemand, pegasusq, gallimaurfy, interactivex, smartassv2, wheatley, interactive, conservative, userspace, ondemand, performance
I/O Schedulers: noop, deadline, cfq, sio, vr, bfq
There are two flavors of the Kernel available now. One with stock GPU clock speeds and the other with a slightly overclocked GPU. Check the download section below.

Disclaimer: This rom will not prevent a zombie apacalypse. It may however, aid you in the event of an apacalypse by providing stability, battery and smooth cellular operation. By flashing this, your phone should still work ... and as an added bonus, it'll likely work better than your stock rom. If your phone bricks, build a house. By flashing this rom, you agree to have your phone powered by beer and tiny nibbles.
Installation Instructions:
Use Sk8rs CWM 6.0.1.5 for best results.
(Get it here)
Do not flash a ROM or Radio with your phone plugged into USB.
Nandroid your current ROM
Flash the zip from recovery
Aroma installer start and guilde you through the process.
Aroma will also take care of wiping data and caches as needed, so you don't have to do this on your own.

***DOWNLOAD Nibbles Kernel v0.1.3 HERE!***
Nibbles 1.6 includes stock and Nibbles versions of the kernel as part of the installer. The downloads below are for anyone who wants to use the kernel on any other AOSP JB rom (kernel will not work on TW ROMs).
Both downloads include all of the kernel features mentioned in the OP. The differences between these two is only the GPU speed. You can download and flash either of these at any time without wiping your system. Note that the installation will wipe your cache and dalvik, so after you reboot, let the apps setup and settle for a few minutes.

***Instagram Fix***
The instagram fix included in Nibbles 1.6 is from jee'sgalaxy's post HERE. There are five build.prop values that are edited (Nibbles only required two of them). If you do not use instagram, you can reset these values in build.prop to the following:
debug.composition.type=dyn
debug.mdpcomp.maxlayer=3
dev.pm.gpu_samplingrate = 1 (delete this one)
debug.sf.hw = 1 (this stays the same)
debug.egl.hw = 1 (this stays the same)
( disable dithering as noted in the thread wasn't necessary for the fix )
I included this by default in the ROM because I figured most people use instagram. Either way, if you don't use it, just swap these values back if you want to. Changing them back to stock isn't required unless you notice issues with video related to memory collisions.
Make sure you use a build.prop editor to make the changes, backup your original version and reboot when you are done.

Known Bugs:
Bluetooth may crash the first time you open it. Just relaunch and it should be fine. I don't have a means to test bluetooth, if someone wants to offer up a fix, PM me.
Things of note:
Double check your APN settings after flashing to make sure you're on LTE and it's all correct.
First boot will be slow, have patience. It may take a couple minutes. Subsequent reboots should fly.
If you set your CPU to 196MHz, you will notice some lag when waking up the phone. This is particularly true if you have a live wallpaper.
After first boot, hit the volume rocker to wake up the sound. (This should no longer be an issue)
I no longer support the battery mods from my other thread, while they will work on this ROM they might do something funky. Use at your own risk.

Change Log Information:
There are two places where I publish change information. In the post below and in changelog.txt on Goo.im in each ROM directory. Make sure to read the changelog information before you download and install the ROM. In most cases, the minor version updates simple incorporate patches that have been accumulated since the prior release. If you have installed all applicable patches, you likely won't need to download and install the full ROM.
How to read my version numbers:
I keep them pretty simple to be honest, the first number is a major release. This probably won't change until I move to CM10.1 when it is read. The second number is a compiled release, meaning that I recompiled the source to include significant fixes or updates - you will always need to do a full ROM flash when these are released. The third number is a minor release, as noted above it typically only includes accumulated patches since the last compiled or minor release.

Been using your .2 & .3 roms this week and gotta say good work cvd!! Went back to SkyJB to give the new base and update a try cuz I thought it might be a little bit longer for your release but will be giving this a shot tonight or tomorrow depending on how much I drink today...lol It really is great to have all the choices of roms that are working so well...

Sounds legit. Thanks for helping me test everything out. I've been running this all day, beating up my phone and battery life and performance have been superb on the Wheatley governor. I plugged in twice to do som ADB stuff, so when I restart from a full charge I'll post up some full results with scren shots.
Great work and thanks again, not only for the bootani(still working on a hybrid) but for the tips on the kernel(thanks to m45 too)!

and what about squahfs
-
none of them are needed in android devices. personally, I don't see any benefit of using those kind of filesystem on Y. first of all creating those filesystem on the memory isn't easy since those fs isn't common used among user and we might need special tool to create it on our lil sdcard. secondly, even if we could create it we'll need special tool to mount it since our native system could only mount ext, rfs, and fat32. even if we could do it for the partition in the sdcard we can't do that for the /system, /data, and /cache partition since it will require special modification on the ramdisk. too many job needs to do with so little benefit. if you want to make a good kernel, IMO it will better if you focused on different aspect like tweaking the kernel. having low latency kernel seems doable with this kernel. I heard that low latency kernel will improve multimedia experience. it might be a good idea to playing with it.

ArchiDroid Optimizations:
- Fully optimized for Samsung Galaxy S3 (-marm -march=armv7-a -mcpu=cortex-a9 -mtune=cortex-a9 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp)
- Compiled with O3 optimization level (-O3)
- Performed interprocedural pointer analysis and interprocedural modification and reference analysis (-fipa-pta)
- Performed loop invariant motion on trees. It also moved operands of conditions that are invariant out of the loop, so that we can use just trivial invariantness analysis in loop unswitching. The pass also includes store motion (-ftree-loop-im)
- Created a canonical counter for number of iterations in loops for which determining number of iterations requires complicated analysis. Later optimizations then may determine the number easily (-ftree-loop-ivcanon)
- Performed induction variable optimizations (strength reduction, induction variable merging and induction variable elimination) on trees (-fivopts)
- Tried to reduce the number of symbolic address calculations by using shared “anchor” symbols to address nearby objects. This transformation can help to reduce the number of GOT entries and GOT accesses on some targets (-fsection-anchors)
- Assumed that loop indices do not overflow, and that loops with nontrivial exit condition are not infinite. This enables a wider range of loop optimizations even if the loop optimizer itself cannot prove that these assumptions are valid (-funsafe-loop-optimizations)
- Moved branches with loop invariant conditions out of the loop (-funswitch-loops)
- Attempted to avoid false dependencies in scheduled code by making use of registers left over after register allocation. This optimization most benefits processors with lots of registers (-frename-registers)
- Re-ran common subexpression elimination after loop optimizations are performed (-frerun-cse-after-loop)
- Didn't keep the frame pointer in a register for functions that don't need one. This avoids the instructions to save, set up and restore frame pointers; it also makes an extra register available in many functions (-fomit-frame-pointer)
- Made a redundant load elimination pass performed after reload. The purpose of this pass is to clean up redundant spilling (-fgcse-after-reload)
- Ran a store motion pass after global common subexpression elimination. This pass attempts to move stores out of loops (-fgcse-sm)
- Eliminated redundant loads that come after stores to the same memory location, both partial and full redundancies (-fgcse-las)
- Constructed webs as commonly used for register allocation purposes and assigned each web individual pseudo register. This allows the register allocation pass to operate on pseudos directly, but also strengthens several other optimization passes, such as CSE, loop optimizer and trivial dead code remover (-fweb)
- Performed tail duplication to enlarge superblock size. This transformation simplifies the control flow of the function allowing other optimizations to do a better job (-ftracer)

What to expect:
- Awesome stock battery life on AOSP ROMs (due to Samsung sources and not smdk4x12)
- Blazing fast (Deep advanced optimizations, Linaro toolchain, this is the beast)
- High compatibility (AnyKernel method, the kernel should work on all ROMs)
What to NOT expect:
- Many CPU or I/O governors # We don't need overhead, you can achieve nearly the same just by tweaking governor to your needs
- Features I don't like/need
- Dualboot (see above ^)
- F2FS (see above ^, however this one depends on kernel upstreaming, as f2fs is merged)
Flashing instructions:
1. Make sure that you have stock kernel already flashed (the one which comes with your ROM), if you're running custom kernel already, reflash your ROM without wipe, this will also flash stock kernel. This is ultimately important, DON'T FLASH ARCHIKERNEL ON ANOTHER CUSTOM KERNEL, you may face various issues you've never seen before.
* This is because ArchiKernel uses AnyKernel method - it pulls ramdisk from your current kernel. If you brick your phone by flashing AK on top of custom kernel, you know who will be responsible for that.
2. Flash ArchiKernel zip.
3. Profit!
Updating instructions:
1. If you arleady have older ArchiKernel version flashed properly with above instructions, and changelog doesn't state otherwise, just flash the .zip with new version of AK.
2. No wipes, cleaning dalvik cache or anything else is required, flashing zip is enough.
3. Profit!

Some older version download:
This one for me, reserved.
First version, dated 14/03/2015 is out. Download, flash on STOCK kernel of your Lollipop rom and report It should work on Nameless and AICP for sure, interesting if it works on CM and RR.
Working fine with todays RR O3 Test Build (which is in upload at the moment).
Great Kernel so far after a few minutes, many thanks.....whether the kernel is also working on normal or official RR, I will test soon, but I am quite sure that he does .

That is really, really, really good!
I found ArchiKernel a really good, comfortable to configure and universal kernel

hi, can i just flash this kernel after I flash the aicp rom？ becasue I dont' know if the kernel come with aicp rom is stock or custom.
It's stock, so you can directly flash this kernel after flashing rom. Every AOSP Lollipop rom that we have comes with a stock, unmodded kernel
Very nice can't wait to testing it looking forward to it.
Just flashed. Seems fine so far, but does it need also LMK corrections?

This kernel is real beast 27500 on antutu @Stock
I know that archi won't add governors/schedulers but if you mate could edit the kernel just to add zzmoove or smartass for battery saving and zen scheduler , it'd be very very great.
I'd love to test some OC @1600 for cpu and @666 for gpu just to see where it could go with such a kernel if you have time .

If you read 3rd post in this thread you will know the answer
I'm sorry if my question is stupid but is this work with rooted touchwiz kitkat 4.4.4 rom?

Yeah, I was thinking just about the same. I am testing right now experimental kernel with 1600 OC and some more optimizations. I may share it as experimental release soon
However, I think that Archi may add zzmoove in future, so I won't double his work [emoji14] (I am missing it too!)
I might add zen in next release though, it shouldn't be too much work. However, isn't bfq running just fine? How can you tell if zen is better than bfq?

As for now: not
To my mind, it will be possible in not-far future

LMK permission's fix won't do any harm, therefore it's better to keep it in. Moreover it allows any apps to see and modify them.

Happens ! No problem at all
Wich app I Have to use to con figure the kernel?
With synapse for example which is coming with the kernel zip.
The ASV level showing on synapse, does it tell me if my chip in particular is bad? I have level 2, which is pretty bad...
