I did not create "this" and I'm not taking credit for it. This is an awesome kernel created by an awesome dev. I have seen a lot of people asking about where to find this kernel so I asked the dev if I could make this thread to help everyone out over here. I do plan to keep this updated as he updates his OP over on Rootz.
LINK TO ORIGINAL POST ON ROOTZWIKI
This is a kexec Touchwiz test kernel. Use his thread to report bugs, etc.
WARNING: If you're on full stock, you must install busybox first.
DOWNLOAD
latest beta kernel: flashable zip
to return to stock kernel: flashable zip
INSTRUCTIONS
Make sure you're on a recovery that supports auto-flash (any CWM compatible recovery should work - I use v6.0.1.0).
Make sure your ROM has busybox installed properly (otherwise it will bootloop).
Download and flash the zip file in recovery (yup that's it).
Reboot (it will appear to boot twice after that and at every boot).
FEATURES
Unnecessary components removed for lean and fast kernel.
Compiled using latest Linaro compiler with additional optimizations.
Latest Linux updates applied (currently up to 3.0.39).
Ramdisk optimizations.
Kexec (credit goes to Mike Kasick, Austin Dicken, etc.)
OC'ed to 1.9Ghz (limited to 1.51Ghz at boot, use an app to change max freq)
SIO I/O scheduler default
Fast Charge (toggle via the "ffc" script - open terminal, type ffc then enter, plug in phone via USB)
On-demand governor backported from Linux 3.5
CHANGELOG (BETA)
v0.1 (b31fd85c46133f21d3e83d2a5c7d6f94) - initial beta release. Changes from test v12.2.
CHANGELOG (TEST KERNEL)
v10.4 - initial test release
v11.1 (0a169bbc58f7f5b14315f6e2dad47226) - leaner kernel, ondemand governor backported from Linux 3.5, latest interactive governor (not recommended yet)
v12 (8d31143328f19a6183ce6ed50d3f2f76) - fixed default max frequency (really set to 1.51ghz), custom boot animation support, init.d support, Linux 3.0.39 update
v12.2 (3640421cf043e4bdb88de3162c9984fa) - fixed blue LED issue at boot for some ROMs.
TODO
This is alpha/test kernel. More development will come.
Remember this is just a repost of his OP. To get support from the dev you will more than likely have to go over to Rootzwiki to get it. All of the links in this post redirect to the OP on Rootzwiki and not to download links. You will have to go to his OP to download the kernel.

How do I use USB Fast Charge?
1) Unplug from USB cable.
2) Open Terminal Emulator, type "ffc" (without quotes) and enter. This command will toggle your fast charge state.
3) Plug it back in.
Note: running the same command again will disable fast charge.
Also, when fast charge is enabled USB communication will be disabled.
Why KEXEC?
I actually had my own hybrid recovery/kernel method, which was kinda cool. No special kernel modification was necessary, simpler boot hijack, etc. But it did mean that recovery was modified and required flashing into recovery partition for every new version. Plus all the cool cats were using kexec.
I don't mean to be a jerk or step out of place, but ,there really isn't any development here since everything is centered at Rootz. I can certainly understand a DISCUSSION thread in General, but all the actual development is over at Rootzwiki. Why not create a discussion thread in General and allow Imo to make his own thread in development if he so chooses to do so?
That's my 2 cents. Mods feel free to nuke my thoughts here if you'd like.

I didn't want it to get lost in General and I asked him if he wanted me to make one or if he could make one over here for us and he told me to go ahead. I see where you are coming from though.
EDIT: If mods feel this should be elsewhere feel free to move it. I just figured this would be the best place to put it.
Yah i think it will be useful since half of the Rom threads are all about this kernal anyways there taking up way to many pages. There does need to be a seperate thread for it so good ups.
If you did not development nor can support it then it does not belong in Development
Thread moved
Also please show where the original developers authorized you to copy their material and links

I have never tried to charge with the phone off. Beta just released about 20 minutes ago. Try that and see if it fixes it.

thanks, trying the beta now
No problem. I have the beta on my phone and it seems really solid so far.
this has already been covered in my guide...i think having multiple guide threadz for each and every rom/kernel is silly and confusing. which is why i made a all in one guide that covers all develpment and tweaks...what not. part of the reason i link to the original dev threads so users can keep up on the lastest there but ask questions in my thread.

I didn't realize there was a link to Imos kernel anywhere except inside of ROM threads so I figured I would duplicate his post here so people here would see. There is a whole lot of people who posted in the Synergy thread that they didn't know where his kernel was or where to find it and things like that. I figured the easiest way would be to have a post on XDA devoted to his kernel. If we had a mega thread of all the root methods, tools, ROMs, kernels, and themes then that would probably be better than this to help people find anything they may need for their phone with very little effort.
I'm assuming this wont work on the cm10 nightlies?

yes. in their current form your device will still boot like 3 times though. There will be no change. In the next few days devs will be unpacking their zips and removing the kexec process. Now they just need to copy over any modules and dd the kernel to mmcblk0p7. But yes, these kernels will still work fine right now.
When the devs repackage them, however, you will no longer have to bootloop 3 times before booting with your custom kernel. it will load on first boot everytime, until you dd the stock kernel back to mmcblk0p7
When I flash nothing happens?
I just put on the Psycho ROM on my i9300 today and wanted to test this kernel out to see what 1.9Ghz feels like. I downloaded both the experimental and stable build.
I flashed the experimental build first, but my Siyah kernel still showed up. So I tried it again, but to no avail. Same incident with the stable build.
I notice when it flashes it seems like less than a second... I downloaded the experimental build v1.7 a few days ago, and its stable build today.
Any ideas?

Hi guys so this will be basically be just the same as my guide on the general section...
Only this time it will be specific to Kernels
As of the moment we have 2 Kernels the are being worked upon
V's(viveks kernels) and M's Kernel(merruks) both are still works in progress so please bear with me on this but once they are both done of course change logs etc will be posted here for easier reference as well...
If more kernels will be developed then everything will be compiled here as well..
so for the moment..
let this be my opening staments
What Is A Kernel really?
Corn kernels are used as pelletized fuel for pellet stoves and furnaces. Corn kernels are a natural pellet, which gives them a huge economic advantage over other man-made biomass pellets and wood pellets.
well not that kernel...
Kernel
The central or core software component of most operating systems. Its responsibilities include managing the system's resources (the communication between hardware and software components) and can provide the lowest-level abstraction layer for resources (especially memory, processors, and I/O devices). (from xda wiki)
What is a Custom Kernel
Well is basically allows you to do a lot of things like underclocking overclocking,initd scripts support for performance tweaks...
make your phone dance and drink beer,,,that sorta stuff..hope you get my point...custom kernels allow you to do taht stock kernels wont...
Right now
We basically have 4 Kernels
they would be
Stock kernel
Terma's Kernel
Viveks Kernel
Merruks kernel
among these 4 only 2 are at this point suitable for daily use(well we could do 3 but there has been reports of not booting up)
one would be the stock kernel next be Terma's kernel which supports a2sd (not sure if init.d is supported can anyone aside from me confirm this)
merruks kernel would be the tentative third since alpha7.50rc20 boot on some and boots not on some...
as for the mean time 80 percent of the kernels are work in progress...
hands down to the devs that are creating them please let us continue to show supprt for the betterment of our devices
and world peace(with matching miss universe hand wave)
Merruk kernel Update 03.25.2012
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1550065&page=123
Done...!
This One is the Final Beta One. ( We need to create a new topic here )
Instructions :
1 : Put the Ext4.zip on Your SD-Card.
2 : Extract The Content of Sustem.zip to the Root of your SD-Card (DRIVE_LETTER:/system). Take it from the previews Post.
3 : Flash the Kernel Via Odin (YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU WANT THERE IS MANY OTHER METHODS).
4 : Boot into CWM Recovery (FIXED THIS TIME).
5 : Install Ext4.zip.
6 : Wipe DATA & CACHE (NOT NEDDED BUT PREFERABLE).
7 : ENJOOOOOOY. (Check the internal memory )

Kernels
nicely put.
as you probably already knew, kernels are the core of an operating system.
like the engine of a car or whatever
The part of an OS that directly communicates with the hardware.

If it's not BML, it's MTD. Search the Q&A forum for MTD. There you will find a thread by eollie which quotes the epicmtd thread and a post of mine... here it is:

Yes read op.
I first want to than you for your support on a "update for a BML kernel".
i think it belongs in dev but still don't have enough posts to post.
I ran into a few issues with no log cat because of hardware freeze.
1st Tegrak will not load module for custom tweaks. Hardware failure vibrates indefinitely, and battery pull needed. works fine if you don't try and tweak. running 1.4 GHz without optimization works fine but can't underclock because of issue. the screen freezes and becomes pixilated.
restoring from nano backup finishes but stays at gs4g boot screen for t mobile
nano restore might be user error. i just factory reset and restored from there using the one click. restoring nano after one clicking resulted in same boot screen freeze as original
im sorry i don't have log cats but i hope i can provide further information if requested.
running latest Valhalla Black Edition with 1.3 OC undervolted
created backup with VB kernel recovery
booted fine with first flash of kernel running at 1.4
tried tegrak to underclock 1.4 and hardware froze with pixilation of screen in very light but noticable amount
reboot
wifi fix didn't work with flashing with cwm, suceeded with flash just no end result
tried to recover using cwm recovery with modded kernel caused boot freeze
one clicked back with no problems
i love this forum and want to try and provide feedback when possible, thank you for all you have accomplished over the years and i can't wait to see the perfect kernel and modem for ics. FB i love the AOKP. Unicorn Power!!! thank you all for all of your awesome work.

Wiping cache and dalvik is fine, don't always need to wipe data, but sometimes you do.

Is this the kind of battery life we can expect for the mtd version of this kernel and/or the aries kernel port? I noticed this does have some things from aries (per Github History). The battery life with this kernel is epic, better than anything else I've used.
Thanks,
David
We don't know what kind of battery life you will expect from the ICS kernel because no one has tested the ICS kernel because bryan hasn't finished creating it yet. If and when it's released you'll get to see what kind of battery life you get with the way you use your own phone.

There is a reason for calling this kernel BlastOff. It's going to go through the galaxy of snacks Google has named their Android releases. It's starting off on Planet Gingerbread, BML style.
Eventually, if the stars align, it will end up reincarnated as MTD on Planet Gingerbread.
After reincarnation, it will head towards planet ICS... and on and on...
For now, we are still packing the ship with goodies. OC/UV, governers, I/O schedulers, mmc changes, and bcm4329 have already been packed. But I'm still adding more!
So for the medium term, this kernel will stay BML. You may see me experiment with MTD, but I would stay away from that stuff and stick with the BML kernel for now.
Enjoy my naming scheme.

No need for that kind of reply, I was simply asking a question. From what I can tell, this does use bits and pieces from Aries and that's what prompted the question. I didn't ask for an eta or anything to that affect. I also know that battery life is dependent on usage, but I know for a fact that on gingerbread the standby time is leaps and bounds better than what we have for ics (currently) (for most users) . It's even been mentioned that the kernel for ics had some battery draining issues by Bryan himself.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
That "kind of reply" was merited. Like I said in that post, we're not gonna know how the battery will be until the kernel gets created and tested. I can give you a prediction and tell you that it'll last you 10 days with heavy usage but I may be wrong.
We won't know until we test it.
BTW, unnamed - bhundven edition has been posted to the teamacid github.
I'm not making an official zip yet, as we have some bugs still to work out, but if you want a rom to play around with the new kernel, git clone it and run the mkzip.sh.
Let me know what you think, if you feel so daring
(again, disclaimer, I'm not responsible for messing your phone up, thats your problem. This rom has been tested and won't brick you, unless you do something stupid. This rom will not work with any other kernel, for now.)
This thread was created at the request of CvD.
This thread is for questions you have about the moretz and marla kernels, I'm sure CvD will pop in from time to time and I will as well. I will update this as i go with common issues if project mayhem deems it so.
Keep it clean and keep it intelligent, if you haven't read the stickies and the kernels thread you have no business posting here and will recieve no assistance.
Keep in mind:
CvD only supports cm10.1 officially so other rom's support is probably going to be guided by other users.
CvD has made it clear that he is not one to support a ton of 3rd party control apps so those questions about said apps will likely be directed by other users just a heads up.
If you can get logs do it.
Be as detailed as possible if you come in here saying oh the kernel doesn't work I will likely hurt you emotionally.
Thanks dude. I now have two CM10.1 kernels published, they are very similar to each other so below a quick description of the differences ...
Marla:
This is intended to be a very stock feeling kernel, no CPU over clocking, no voltage control. Miminal bells and whistles. What is there, is specifically tweaked to enhance the stock kernel and provide excellent performance and battery life. Use either the SmartassV2 or OnDemand governors after you flash and you are done. You shouldn't have to underclock this kernel to save battery, nor should you have to apply a bunch of other tweaks and changes.
Moretz:
This is for the over clockers and tweakers. It is the test bed for changes and udpates for me, many subsystem changes make it from here to Marla after they are proven to work. This kernel will probably be updated more frequently with a wide variety of stuff for everyone to screw with. Once I lock in some good settings and tunings, they will move into Marla as pre-configured changes.

I had one of the boot loops that has been talked about in the mortez thread. If I pulled a log cat after I booted up would this contain information to help CvD of it was actually a boot loop?

I need the log cat run as the loop happens, otherwise it likely won't have any of the relevant errors.

Which version or release date of moretz and marla can you use for CM10 if that's possible? I looked thru a bunch of threads before asking, so my bad if it's been answered already. Thanks for your time.

I believe that this is a cm10.1 based kernel so I don't think you can use either. I may be wrong though.

Correct ... The op in each thread states they are for cm10.1 builds after 4/24/13
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Not necessarily sure if this applies but it definitely relates: I've tried several times (~50 actually) to compile a kernel for the Skyrocket using 7 different toolchains and combinations of ramdisks, branches from your source, other sources, CM's source, basically any I could find and I get the same result every time whereby the phone gets past the initial Samsung splash but never starts the boot animation and usually reboots due to a kernel panic. I managed to look through a last_kmsg once and it said that the memory address for initrd overlapped (it gave 0x41400000 as the beginning address) and I've tried changing the base address, including a ramdisk address, standing on my head, swearing profusely et cetera. I have successfully compiled many, many kernels in the past as I prefer an uncommon set of schedulers and governors and I have never encountered a problem like this before. I haven't been making any modifications to the sources to rule out having inadvertently introduced something myself and based on unpacking all of the boot images I can find the base address is 0x40400000 and the page size is 2048.
Given the above information, my question is simple: WTF am I missing?
Thanks for your time and I appreciate your time and assistance, and I assure you I have searched until I no longer found any related information (none in English or translated into any semblance of English I could comprehend, anyway)
The cleanest way to do it, is to setup a CM10.1 build environment and build it within that framework to ensure consistency. There are numerous integration points between the OS and the kernel (such as Audio-CAF and Display-CAF) that have to be factored in. Check the rookie thread (link in my sig) to see how to setup that environment.
Once you've done that, you can run a kernel build with the following commands:
$> repo sync -j16
$> breakfast cm_skyrocket-userdebug
$> make clean && mka bootimage
That will give you your kernel modules and boot.img in the out/ directory. Just make sure you are pulling the correct kernel source in your repo and update the cm.dependencies script to remove the stock kernel dependency; otherwise it'll update your repo and pull the kernel from cyanogenmod.
I am currently using the Moretz kernel. It's fast and stable. Thank you guys for awesome kernels to choose from! ?????
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Not sure if it's just me, I have had two freeze/reboots in the last couple of days, both times while managing apps, once during an update in Google Play and once while looking at installed apps via ROM Toolbox Pro. I didn't have that prior to using Marla. I'm on CM10.1 latest nightly, has anyone else seen this?
Both Marla 2.0.9 and Moretz 3.0.9 have been super stable for me, maybe a recent commit to cm10.1 is to blame
Hey guys, loving the Moretz 3.0.9 Kernal, seems really stable, and snappy. Being my first custom kernal in a while, I'm a little behind and rusty on what the different Governor and IO Schedular effects/behaviors are. Can anyone point me to a guide that might explain them a little more in depth, or did I somehow miss this information in a post?
What are you all setting yours to? I using PAC-man 7/16 nightly, so any suggestions on what works would be great as well. Thanks!
Edit: Nevermind, finally found the guide. Got pushed to the second thread of the 1stop newbie info post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1950084
Newbie here. I am currently using Moretz on top on CM10.1. I am not a overclocker/tweaker.... given that would Marla be better in terms of battery life?

If you're not a tweaker, I'd suggest marla. Same kernels but marla doesn't have all the options moretz does.

Welcome to the new age of Gingerbread!!
Gingerbread? WTF? Yes I know everyone wants ICS&JB but they have not had any of this kicka$$ gingerbread yet.
4g, HDMI, SMS/MMS, FFC, Flash media (streaming internet video), Every freature HTC offered with this phone works with this rom (even the kick stand. LOL!!)
I have been in my kitchen cooking up something special for yall OG users. Until now you had a difficult choice to make. Use gingerbread to have full function of your OG or use ICS/JB and have the looks but lose some features. Now this is not just another themed out gingerbread rom trying to be ICS/JB. This is a complete rework of GB with many features found in ICS/JB back ported. I did not create this rom but I did merge the source code with multiple OG device trees to get it working. The real credit goes to SquadZone!! These guys are awesome and have done a super job with this. So for everything that works thank them and for everything that is broken blame me.
So lets take care of the b.s. first.
https://github.com/CyanMobile - Source I used to build from
https://github.com/atyoung - Source used for kernel
https://github.com/jlmancuso/KAKA - My source of KAKA (not uploaded yet, still testing before releasing)
My kernel K.A.K.A. is still in the works. I just have not had time to get it finished yet.
Thanks to:
SquadZone - for an awesome source
Atyoung - for the best gb kernel
Evervolv - for being the best (oh and I stole some of my device tree from them)
CM - another awesome group (yes I stole some of my tree from them too)
B-boy - for most of the black and transparent apps (http://b-boytm.webnode.com/themed-apps)
Google - without I would never have been able to build this beast from source (by Google I am refering to the search engine mostly)
PlatinumPenguin - who donated his old 3vo to me (this will also be built as a tablet style rom later for him)
thedemonic - testing and repacking the boot.img for me (thanks a million!!!)
....more will be added later
Also always feel free to hit me up on google (plus+, talk, or old fashion email, [email protected])
Beta 3.0 is out but it is not the grand enchilada I have planed. With all the small things acting up I have had to put the cool things to the side for the moment and focus on the core. I have been running this all day downloading, surfing, streaming music, video, playing with dropbox. So I think we are now ready to have enjoy this Beast of a Rom.
Install Instructions
1. Backup your current ROM
2. Download and flash current rom
3. Do not flash anything else (except kernels) If you flash any mods you will most likely have issues.
4. Reboot phone and wait. First boot takes a very long time and you may get a reboot right after the splash screen. This is normal no worries also the boot song will finish before the rom is done loading.
5. Go to Post 2 and setup your gps and a2sd if you want it.

V6 supercharger - although I am still playing with settings I believe that V6 has slowed down the rom - removed from beta 4.0
For those who want to donate for the development of this rom I am sorry but I am no longer taking dontaions. If you feel like you must give I am providing a link to the Red Cross and would like for yall to give them whatever it is yall wanted to give to me. Mother Earth has come to take that which is her's and I like most others would like to give to those who really need it. Link below is for Red Cross donations. Again anything you felt like donating to me please send it to the Red Cross instead. I have given yall the link below and please help those who really need it.

If you donate to the Red Cross I will make sure yall get your name on the thanks list and I will put you on my beta tester list so you will not only help those who have faced natural disasters but you can help make this a better rom for everyone.
Lets keep this tread clean (free of non-development chatter)

CyanMobile Pre-Beta 3.0 Tester 4
Special Release
Since I have what looks to be a stable base I wanted to go ahead and let yall use it. This does not have the custom kernel or install script yet (been busy working Lol! So I have not finished the kernel. This release has 100% of the included apps working and so far I have had great feed back from my beta testing team. Thanks guys. All of the apps from 2.3 are still in 3.0 (transparent & inverted) with only a few changes to the versions. So far everything downloaded from the market works without any issues.
BOOT AUDIO WARNING
this audio should be 99% safe (nothing bad) yet might still give you a shock factor
Special Flashing Instructions
1. DO NOT!! flash any extra tweaks, or mods!! The can and most likely result in bootloops and will most likely require a complete wipe and reinstall of CyanMobile!!!
2. You can flash other GingerBread AOSP kernels. This could also have adverse effects. Like always this is just a warning if you flash it you might have to fix it. LOL..
3. THIS WILL WIPE everything but your sd-ext and sdcard. I always suggest wiping your sd-ext if you have problems with the first install. You made a backup right?
4. Flash Rom
5. Reboot (Gapps included with rom) WARNING: DONT UPDATE ANY GOOGLE APP THIS WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS IF YOU DO.
6. Wait and enjoy your boot audio (first boot takes a very long time)
7. Please let the phone sit for a few mins before the first use this ROM has lots of things it only does on the first boot so as hard as it can be please, please, please wait. It will be worth it.
8. Now reboot phone and enjoy the wonders of GingerBread!! Who knew it could be so good?
9. Now for those who read all the instructions before doing something I have a treat for you.
10. Now go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42092464 follow the instructions I posted there to enable a2sd (yes a small part of my CyanMobile settings map, Now for sale as an app for only $19.99 Lol!!

KAKA Kernel information and change log
KAKA is now available for your Og!!!
What is KAKA?
KAKA stands for Kick A$$ Kernel Aosp version. It is an updated and modified version of the Mason G series kernel.
What has been done to make it KAKA?
Well this is the first release and also my first kernel so it is a work in progress. I have added 3 governors and enabled SWAP.
What is in KAKA's future?
I plan on adding more features such as two way call recording, adding more IO schedulers, and bringing this up to the latest Linux kernel version.
So what governors have been added?
I have created/modified 3 of my own while also including other available governors. Here is a list of all the governors.
Brazilianwax
conservative
intelllidemand
interactive
interactivex
lagfree
lazy
lionheart
lulzactive
minmax
ondemand
ondemandx
performance
powersave
samurai
savegedzen
scary
smartass
smartass2
smoothass
superbad
userspace
virtuous
wheatly
and my new ones
deathbysoap
diablo
hipkat
This kernel will be a match for the rom. More options than most users will know what to do with. For now it is only available with CyanMobile or from source if you want to compile it yourself. There is also plans for ICS and JB versions some time in the future.
So what are deathbysoap, diablo, and hipkat?
Well they are my tribute to 3 of our great XDA members and modified versions of existing governors. I have chosen each governor to reflect (somewhat) each member and then modified each one to make them better.
Death by Soap - is a modified version of intellidemand
Diablo - is a modified version of SmartAss2
HipKat - is a modified version of Conservative
Each one has been tweaked to give better performance and battery life. Specifics of the modifications will be provided later.
What I/O Schedulers will be available?
noop
deadline

Nice... Kinda first.
What you mean kinda first? Mine dont count. LOL! I pull two extras off the top to keep the OP clean and neat. Oh by the way for those who get the rubix cube just tap it and it will go away. Also random boot animations are not really setup yet it just has the ones for the nexus which is where I stole the script from. LOL! Well I guess stole is not the correct term since I gave credit. Swiper no swipe!!!!!!!!!!!
oh well. this was to be an edit of my change log but somehow became a post. not enough sleep and too much bud
Guess I should flash my zip since I have not tested it yet. This was pulled straight from my phone and zipped up and sent to the net before I even thought to test it. I sure hope it works.
Edit: Rom works but not like what I had in my phone. v6 freaked things up. Busybox is massive a su bianary is missing along with a couple of apps and mods. New upload this afternoon.

yeah the download is good he just needs a different install script. i have not updated it to the jellybean installer. well actually i did check which one it used by default during the source build. the new download will have the updated script plus i will remove the market updater. even though this rom claims to be 2.3.8 it still requires an ancient market and will not run any other version. i will have to dig around and find a tweaked version of market to include also.
new update will be up within the next couple of hours. i am working on it now. also sorry about the dl size while digging around the rom i noticed the size of xbin (which is where busybox is) talk about a massive error there. rom should be a few hundred megs smaller next go round.

Again sorry about the size of that one. At 4 am it is hard to remember to check all that stuff. I have beta 2.1 setup and I am testing it now. Although this is still a large rom at 317 megs it is better than that 560+ bs of beta 2. Also just about every extra app I added is located in the data partition so if you dont want or need it you can easily uninstall it.
The update will be done shortly I have to do a bit of work to get the installer script squared away since I am converting it over to the JB binary. With luck it will be on the servers before 3 PM CST!
Edit: Bad news for yall status 7 people. The JB binary is having issues with this rom. I am going to try making a new kind of install and see it I can get yall on this too. It will be flashed from the bootloader like a RUU if I can make it work. Keep your eye out for the beta 2.1 RUU style release. Until then yall are still a no go on CyanMobile. SORRY
Well this sucks. Started upload over hour ago and only at 5% with estimated 6+ hrs remaining. Going to try uploading from my cell with es file explorers sftp feature. Might only take two hours that way.

Go check out Tame! It goes great with this and it handles OTA updates for this kernel.
This is a Linux based (3.0.101) Kernel which is maintained by me kept inline with the Cyangenmod Kernel so this is compatible with ALL the latest KitKat Roms (unless otherwise stated in the ROM).
Please report anything good and bad so that I know what to keep and what not to keep for the next release. This also helps me push out fixes faster when presented with lots of information (such as logs etc.).
Please see changelogs for an in-depth look at features. Also take a look at the screenshots for a sneak peek.

Installer zip fixed, please re download if you downloaded kernel before seeing this message....thanks!
The new installer worked, thanks. I'll play around with it and report back but I can already say that WiFi direct doesn't work (it's always the first thing I check b/c it's the only problem I have with any of the skyrockets current kernels)

Are you sure that problem is directly related to the kernel? It sounds more like a Rom issue....does it work on your rom's stock kernel?

I guess the burning question for me if this includes all of Sultan's bluetooth fixes. His kernel for CM really is the gold standard for our device thus far.
I see you mentioned him in the OP so I am hopeful lol. I'd love to be able to flash this kernel with any rom knowing the usual plagues (such as the constant BT disconnect) are no longer an issue.
Thanks a lot for this! Nice to see the SR still getting some love

I'm pretty sure it's at the kernel level only because it works with @Sultanxda's kernel. His is the only 4.4.x kernel that WiFi direct has ever worked on for me on the skyrocket. It worked on the official CM10.2 ROMS/kernels but every since CM11 was introduced it's been broken. The ROM I'm using now could connect with WIFI direct when built with Sultan's kernel.
Even with Sultans kernel, Miracast (with uses WIFI direct) will connect but the graphics are all scrambled. I suspect that has to do with some of the memory enhancements he's made. If I knew how to build kernels I'd like to try using the official CM11 kernel source and only applying his WIFI direct commit to see what the results are, but unfortunately I don't know how to build them and can't seem to find the time to do the research to learn. Maybe one day.
I've had no issues otherwise and I've been using it for a few days now. Thanks

Once your screen goes black from the reboot, hold both the volume buttons until your device goes into recovery. Then either use ADB or your recovery's file manager to retrieve /proc/last_kmsg and it post it here. It always helps to present issues with a log ready, for future reference.
So... I got bored.
I installed the following ROM's and got bootloops for each (basically every 4.4.4 ROM I know of for Skyrocket):
AOKP - Dated 15-Sep-14
CM11 - Dated 19-Oct-14
PacRom - Dated 25-Aug-14
Mokee - Dated 12-Oct-14
Dirty Unicorns - Dated 2-Oct-14
SlimKat - Dated 14-Oct-14
CarbonRom - Dated 17-Oct-14
Beanstalk - Dated 9-Oct-14
CandyKat - Dated 18-Oct-14
Paranoid - Dated 9-Oct-14
I didn't test the following ROMs:
SultanXDA CM11 - Dated 19-Oct-14 Didn't test since I was told it would bootloop
MIUI V6 - Currently getting a bootloop so no reason to try it

Never done this before (well, I know how to get into recovery...lol). I'll post the file in a few minutes after reflashing one of the ones above. Can i empty this folder when I'm done? There's 200 or so subfolders in there.
ETA: Added attachment.

Hmm interesting, since I dont have this device, I can't do this myself. But do u think u can you do the following?
1. Flash one of the Roms you listed that bootlooped above
2. Open my kernel installer and delete /system/bin/thermald
3. Push it to your device and install
4. Does it boot?

Sadly, bootloops again (I installed the AOKP rom; clean, no GApps, let it boot once, boot to recovery and flash modified zip).

Too bad i hope emmanuel fix this.. Anything i can do ..
Reboots
I was playing around in Tame earlier and my phone rebooted a few times. I wasn't doing anything too crazy, turned off SweepToWake, changed the governor to Lazy and it froze and rebooted. The first time it happened I had changed the max frequency and a couple of other things, so I attributed the reboot to that, however when it booted back up I only changed the two items mentioned above and it rebooted again, this time it stayed off so I booted into recovery and got the kMsg, hopefully it helps. That's not the first time I've used Tame, I initially installed it, changed a few things and everything was fine, but my phone had been turned off since then so I was going back in to set it back the way I had it.
I'm currently using the liquidsmooth as my ROM, and this is really the first issue I've had with your kernel (other than WIFI direct, but that's pretty much all the kernels for this device). I think you've even improved my battery life, I don't do gaming or anything so I don't really ever notice any performance gains or that sort of thing, but I haven't noticed anything moving slower, which is good.
Update
Another minor update today, sorry about the initial discrepancies! Blame me, since I don't actually have this device. Well it should boot on all ROMs now, enjoy .... I guess.
Works great on PA! I'll mess with it for a bit and provide useful feedback.

Flashed successfully on Carbon 10/17 nightly. Seems pretty snappy so far. Nice work! :thumbup:
Hi. Thanks for sharing this Kernel. I have a question...
Before, I was using Carbon with its stock kernel, Conservative governor and noop; there was no lag at all, but battery seems to last too little time in continous use and even when it was with screen off. Even before that, the CPU governor was set by default at Interactive, but the Skyrocket freezes in several times, sometimes after unplug it from charger or after unlocking it after a time (like 1 hour or something), sometimes the device hangs so long until I reboot it or it reboots itself. So, Interactive isn't the best choice for me.
The question is: What is the best choice for a governor if I want the longest battery life, but with any freezing any time?
Could you please help me?

Yes, I'm sorry, I forgot to say that actually I'm using Lazy governor at 96-1350 and sio as you recommended it, but I thought that maybe there's a no listed recommendation for maximun battery or something like that.
