Thanks to XsMagical and Team Nocturnal for the video!
What is coming soon:
Code:
-Fast Charge for ROMs that support it (such as AOKP JB)
What I hope to add but no promises:
Code:
-MSM DCVS governor
-GPU control
-Gamma/Color control (tightly integrated... there is loose integration with current 3rd party apps)
What is never coming so don't ask:
Code:
-BS patches and features
Download: http://code.google.com/p/rohan-kernel-evita/downloads/list
b6 and onwards include two versions: a NORMAL version and a NOVC version. First try the NORMAL version. If that does not work correctly, then try the NOVC version, which includes all features except voltage control.

Recommended values:
192mhz Minimum
1.98ghz Max
I/O: sio
CPU Gov: intellidemand
Use an app like No Frills CPU Control and set the values you want at boot.
These are extremely alpha builds. They are not fully tested and may brick your device. If something does happen to your device, you are not to blame myself or any others involved in this kernel. Flashing this is solely your responsibility and if something happens, blame yourself. Always make a backup before flashing. Making a nandroid of your boot partition takes a few seconds but could help you save your device from bricking.

My goal for this kernel is to make it simply an enhanced stock JB kernel.

Because I do not want to manage 2 kernels at the same time, on top of my three ROMs. I will be including some ramdisk tweaks in the future, and the ramdisks vary between AOSP and Sense.

Nope, I'll be keeping this kernel separate. If a user wants this kernel, then they can flash it on top of my builds I don't want to force the user to use anything they don't want.
Wow Rohan, you have been busy lately!

Any chance we'll see the additional free RAM from the Android 4.0.4 Sense ROMs, or is that not a kernel thing?

Yeah I got like 2 or 3 initially but it seems fine. I think it happens right after you tweak the CPU settings. I'll be looking into it.

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST #1 and POST #2, UNDERSTAND, READ IT AGAIN, BEFORE YOU DECIDE TO FLASH.
* THIS KERNEL IS ONLY FOR ICS (Android 4.0.x) TouchWiz (Samsung/ATT ICS releases, i.e any UCLF6, UCLF5, UXLF3, UCLD2, UCALC2) ROMS. It is NOT for after market ROMS like CyanogenMod or AOKP.
* The ONLY device that it has been tested is ATT SGH-I727 and Rogers SGH-I727R.
* CYMBALINE 2.X is a complete overhaul from 1.X series, if you have been using 1.X series, I would strongly recommend to upgrade to 2.X series.

TUNING SCRIPTS
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For Gov/OC/UV/UC tuning scripts for various governors. If you don't like to use an app (as lot of them cannot do fine grained tuning) you would like to use init scripts, then please see @ReedX50v scripts in this thread. The only requirement is "busybox run-parts init.d supports", most custom ROM's with modified Ramdisk kernel image should have that built-in. If it not, then bang your ROM author to provide one.
* For Cymbaline 2.6 and above (any ramdisk version, i.e. any of the RDNN) use the information in following post #574. You might also read the post #249, for some background information. Please thanks ReedX50v.
* For Cymbaline 2.5 and BELOW (any ramdisk version). use the scripts (again thank Reed50Xv). Use the scripts from the following post #249.
FEATURES/CHANGELOG

You can use 3rd Party APPS for CPU and Voltage Control. For Voltage, it is using the Faux VDD tables, so the app MUST be able to understand that. (See ADDONS section below).
[RD04][2.8]
updated to linux 3.0.46 upstream.
Experimental, ported CM10 bln with blink support (updates your lights lib in ROM). Not sure how great this is but feedback is appreciated.
WiFi sensitivity restored to stock.
[RD04][2.7]
updated to linux 3.0.42 upstream.
Ramdisk updated to support boot sounds. (remove /system/etc/PowerOn.ogg if you don't want it)
merged to latest (09/09/2012) CAF relevant changes.
[RD03][2.6]
Changed Ramdisk (def. governor changed from "ondemand_sammy" to "ondemand".
updated to linux 3.0.40 upstream.
updated WiFi stack to 1.15.55
Skipped internal releases 2.4 and 2.5.
FIX: Now overclock should be fully supported.
[RD02][2.3] Minor release, only one version now. Hacked to ensure that the max. boot ramp up is only 1.566GHz. If your phone can't handle that, sorry return it .
Added two more governors as modules : "savagedzen" and "hotplug"
Unified release, hack in place to not ramp up to the MAX allowed i.e. (1.836Ghz) so all phones should boot, as the boot max is set to 1.566GHz.
merged some bt code from Cymbaline 1.5 branch.
[RD02-2.2] Please note RAMDISK change, see below
Samsung ondemand governor moved as "ondemand_sammy", did this so that I can merge the standard ondemand and mods w/o creating a merge headache. Due, to this, the SAMMY settings in the RAMDISK modified to reflect the new name.
using linux ondemand with faux mods. (thanks faux123)
added faux's intellidemand as a built-in gov, since I like it (thanks faux123).
reverted the wi-fi optimization, which was causing tethering issues. (hopefully this is fixed)
pre-emptive strike: merged all Govs from 1.5. Please don't complain that I am missing one. As usual all these are in /system/lib/modules. so you would need to "insmod" (see ReedX50v scripts for samples). Here is the remaining ones (please see RD01-2.1 ChangeLog for others)
Code:
/system/lib/modules/cpufreq_brazilianwax.ko
/system/lib/modules/cpufreq_lionheart.ko
/system/lib/modules/cpufreq_lulzactive.ko
/system/lib/modules/cpufreq_ondemandx.ko
/system/lib/modules/cpufreq_wheatley.ko
[RD01-2.1]
BLN Fix: reverted 2.0 changes, should work now
Providing two CWM flashable zips. One OC to 1.8366GHz and another with OC Capped at 1.566GHz.
Upped the voltage to 1350mV as per ReedX50v testing results and recommendation (hit his thanks button).
IMPORTANT: ALL CUSTOM GOVERNORS are compiled a Kernel Modules. Please use init script to enable the ones you want. I have done this so as to eliminate any interference from them.
This version has the following Governors: (Please see Post #420)
Code:
/system/lib/modules/cpufreq_adaptive.ko
/system/lib/modules/cpufreq_badass.ko
/system/lib/modules/cpufreq_lagfree.ko
/system/lib/modules/cpufreq_lazy.ko
/system/lib/modules/cpufreq_pegasusq.ko
/system/lib/modules/cpufreq_smartass2.ko
[RD01-2.0] Major version change. REMOVED SOME GOVERNORS, please restore to stock ondemand before flashing (i.e. disable init scripts or apply on boot settings in whatever app you are using).
Updated to upstream Kernel 3.0.38
Bunch of NetFilter kernel modules in /system/lib/modules for the interested users.
I have removed some governors, please reset to default governor "ondemand", before flashing.
cherry-picked key changes from CAF.
GPU OC (NOTE: please use sysfs interface to change the frequency the default is stock values, see post #2)
3D Mode: 320000000, 300000000, 266667000, 228571000, 200000000, 177778000, 27000000

Cherry Picked various bits from Samsung Code released for our device.
CPU OC: 192KHz - 186300KHz.
Cleaned up BLN code.
Added some WiFi fixes.
This is mainly a release based of the major overhaul.
Added more I/O Schedulers: BFQ (v3r4), Simple I/O, VR.
[1.5] Please see the posts for the evolution of this version, the last post should detail the final changes (208) #151 , #161 and #208
[1.4] Scaled down the defaul ondemand governor to 1.566 (slight oc). Should perform really well for people satisfied with the defaults.
[1.4] Added more governors for people to play around with, note, I would like to trim it down in futures versions of cymbaline. The newly added ones are (thanks to whoever developed them):
brazilianwax
ondemandx
lionheart
SavagedZen
wheatley
scary
[1.4] Moved init.qcom.post_boot.sh into the ramdisk, to not depend on ROM variances. You should use the /system/etc/init.d hook (of course busybox must be installed).
[1.3] bugfix: the max. freq. was not enabled in 1.2, fixed in this release.
[1.3] some compiler tweaks added building this version of kernel.
[1.2] Restored settings to Stock Governor & I/O scheduler.(ondemand/cfq)
[1.2] BUGFIX: BLN and TouchKey backlight interactions for the "on" settings were conflicting. restored to UCLD2 behavior.

[1.0] bootanimation support, drop your favorite bootanimation.zip in /system/media.
[0.0-0.6] Front Camera fully functional WITHOUT any lib hacks for Skyrocket ICS ROMS. Which means keep dont change the libs.
[0.0-0.6] Back Camera working.
[0.0-0.6] Completely removed MMC_ERASE capability, that means with the running kernel any erase to internal sdcard will error out. This is implemented as per the "brickbug" recommendation.

As far as I know (not tried it), only SystemTuner provides the "lipstick" for reading the voltage table and allowing you granular control of the voltage for each frequency.
Most of the other apps, can I believe allow you to change the CPU/IO scheduler/Govs, safely.
Or, if you are hardcore, please see this post 249 by ReedX50v (hit his thanks button), for graciously providing flashable init scripts, you can use one as a template to what works for you.

1) ROM Developers Info.
If you are planning to bundle this kernel in your ROM. The Samsung init.qcom.post_boot.sh has been disabled and moved to the ramdisk. Your changes should be incorporated in /system/etc/init.d scripts (of course need busybox installed). NOTE: the init scripts always execute after the above script, so you can always override the values there.
2) How do I find the available governors?
Below adb command, will tell you what the available governors in the kernel are (assumes adb/rooted) (shown in 1.4 kernel):
Code:
$ adb shell cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors
brazilianwax ondemandx SavagedZen wheatley scary smartassV2 badass lazy intellidemand lagfree lulzactive interactive conservative ondemand userspace powersave Lionheart performance
3) Sysfs interface for GPU OC?
The GPU OC Modes are supported:
Available frequencies:
Code:
3D: 320000000, 300000000, 266667000, 228571000, 200000000, 177778000, 27000000
2D: 266667000, 228571000, 200000000, 160000000, 96000000, 27000000
The default (and the default in CYMBALINE Version 2.0 and above) stock values are:
Code:
3D @266MHz and [email protected]
To change the values use the sysfs interface here are the relevant samples to max it all out. (you can make an init script to make it permanent)
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo "Overclocking GPU"
echo 320000000 > /sys/devices/platform/kgsl-3d0.0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/max_gpuclk
echo 266667000 > /sys/devices/platform/kgsl-2d0.0/kgsl/kgsl-2d0/max_gpuclk
echo 266667000 > /sys/devices/platform/kgsl-2d1.1/kgsl/kgsl-2d1/max_gpuclk
echo "End"
exit 0
4) Why does the CPUSpy show reaching max. CPU frequency, even though the bundled values 1.52GHz?
This is caused by SAMMY ROM ramping up the CPU's to the Max. during boot. I am looking for a clean way for this to not happen, once I find the source (I have few things narrowed down)...
This is really exciting! Read about this in your other thread and started to pitch a tent.
Bluetooth is not a deal breaker for me so let me know if you need a tester for camera.
Can test on whatever rom needed. Stock, etc.

Well, good thing folks like the OP are still around then...
Thought I was noticing a theme in your rom/kernel names and was going to ask if this (and Embryo) were named for Pink Floyd songs.
But then I thought I'd use Google before asking and I found your post stating that Embryo was in fact named as a dedication to the Pink Floyd song (here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25925976&postcount=287 ).
Would love to see you do something -- anything -- with the song, "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict"

JellyX Kernel 2.6.32.60 // 10.04
If you want to report something head over here and make a "new Issue".
I followed this community now about one year and i wanted to give something back.
Since we managed it to boot a custom kernel, i started reading into stuff and trying to learn how to make the most out of it.
The result so far is my little kernel, it's mainly based on Quarx's one but has some additional features:
Added more Governors (Smoothass, Brazilianwax, InteractiveX, SavagedZen, Scary, Superbad, Lagfree, MinMax)
Added more I/O-Schedulers (Anticipatory, Deadline, V(R), BFQ v2, ZEN)
zCache Support
Cleancache Support
XZ Kernel Compression
zRam with snappy compression
Undervolted: 300/24, 600/40, 800/46, 1000/54
Optional: Choose between CFS and BFS CPU Scheduler
CFS Autogrouping enabled
Tiny RCU
Updated CRC32, jHash
FSync Control by Ezekeel (Read more about this here!)
Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP
New and shiny Wifi drivers by Quarx
Dynamic page-writeback Control v1 by Blechdose
SLUB memory allocator (instead of SLAB)
Some more little changes
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Its mainly designed for Quarx's CM10-Rom, however if you tried another rom you can tell me the name and i add it to the compatibility list
You can find the downloads over here. There is one for CFS and one for BFS.
Installation:
Download and put it on your SD
Reboot into Recovery
Make a Backup
Wipe Caches
Recommendation: Wipe Data (optional)
Install my Kernel Flash at your own risk!

How to - Build your own Kernel (by Kayant)
So far confirmed to be working with:
Quarx Rom 4.1.x (18.11, 28.11, 5.12, 22.12, 31.12, 10.01, 17.02, 24.03, 26.03)
SB 3.0, 3.1
PACMAN 18.0.0
CNA 3.6.6
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
About the 3.0.x Kernel:
My 3.0 kernel shares the same advantages and disadvantages as Quarx one. However i started working on it in a very early stage.
So to keep it short, whats already working:
zCache
CleanCache
UKSM (instead of KSM)
FSync-Control
IO-Schedulers (BFQ, ZEN)
XZ Compression
Latest Linaro
"Ram optimizations"
I am working to get phone working (to help Quarx somehow..), but since many things changed related to this, this will be rather hard than simple... Help appreciated
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Troubleshooting;
If you encounter any problems, please post full information about your system (governers, overclocked, zRam enabled, cfs or bfs version, etc...) and if the same problem exists with Quarx Kernel or with a earlier kernel.
Furthermore run "dmesg" in terminal and post it or send me a pm
And don't worry if it's not working for you, try to play around with some settings.
All in all, if you want a better kernel, try to be much precisely as possible and what steps you did. It helps lot more, if you say more rather than less.

Great work! will test asap!
great work. i'll test soon.
Thanks Blechd0se! You can create a custom kernel for cm9.1? Epsylon Kernel is good but the battery life is very low!
27-11 kernel working fine in SlimBean 3.0 from Kayant.
I repeat my thanks to you men. Working great on slim beam with scary governor. I'll test a little more, but it seems to have a very good life of battery. May be no recommended for games, because it work to lows frequencys almost all the time, but it scale so fast when CPU is needed. The others features enabled, are used by default or there's a way to enable them. Thanks so much...
The thanks button doesn't bite. Try it!
If there's something that I've never thought of seeing here on Defy Dev Forum, it was an thread about an custom kernel for it.
Keep up the good work, and if you need an guinea pig for testing, you can count on me! :good:
Great developers from Germany, Maniac and You..
Thanks for sharing
Arch Linux User ..
Guys! Morning to everybody!
Is it enough to install through cwm or have to install again the nightly and gapps?
Thx

simple question ahead...
custom or costum?
Just one correction
Custom is spelled Custom and not Constum
I'll be trying it soon...

You should include info if your kernel format E to EXT4 and which kernel does it.
Less experienced users might be warned about E: can't mount problems. Which sometimes* are not fixed by CWM - Tools - Format.
* when you have CMW ver. 5.0.6 for example.
The kernel doesn't format anything The zip does mainly contain the kernel.
OTG is maybe something interesting...

Hey Everyone,
I'm by no means a pro at kernel building but I've put lots of effort into these kernels so I thought I'd share them with you. For the record, I use TWRP 2.6.1.0 for installation so if you encounter errors of installation it may be because you are using a different recovery than me.
If you flash one of these Kernels your warranty is void and I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE for any data loss or bricked devices etc. Please make sure to read the changelogs I post in post number 2 below. before you flash!
A Clean install is ALWAYS recommended. That does not necessarily mean you can't install these kernels on you current build it just means that you might have problems if you do.
[AOSP 4.4.2 UBER KERNEL LINK]
UBER BETA2 for SKYROCKET AOSP 4.4.2 ROMS
Installation Instructions
1. For best results a install these kernel after a fresh ROM install
2. Reboot into recovery
3. Flash Kernel Zip
4. Reboot and let settle for ~10 minutes before use.
5. Install Trickster MOD from the App Store for access to all of the options.
6. Change the settings to something other than INTERACTIVE (Especially if you run it with BFQ worst screen lag ever). Then enable "Set at Boot" or else you will lose your configurations.
7. Enjoy!!!
You can also install Hercules ROMs as long as you flash this kernel and fix the install script. Feel free to try any of my ROMs on my Goo.im account. If you take the time to fix up the build.prop and install script so that it is a legitimate port feel free to drop the boot.img and modules out of this kernel into the port and post it. You'll probably need to remove system/bin/mpdecision and system/bin/thermald because they conflict with the kernel.

Now I gotta search for rotation fix for skyrocket.
SGH-I727 Peace
Rotation is off for me also. I normally keep it locked, so I didn't catch that.
So far so good on my end, rotation is backwards but I keep my auto-rotate off so this isn't a problem for me. Though I wonder if flashing the T989 fix would work?
Running 192/1512 with Badass/noop
Hey Skyrocketeers!
I think I've figured out how to fix the rotation. I just uploaded Beta 2 with my attempt to fix the rotation. Let me know if that work for you ASAP! I hope that I can actually get out of Betas here shortly so more souls will be actually dare use this kernel!
Cheers!

PS If this does in fact fix rotation on even Hercules ROMs feel free to checkout out here (http://goo.im/devs/Cl3Kener/WICKED-4.3) for all sorts of exotic ROMs you might consider flashing
Tried dirty flashing beta 2 over beta 1 and never got to the boot animation. Dirty flash beta 1 afterward didn't boot either. Reflashed ROM and beta 2 and still no boot. Unfortunately I won't be able to test anymore tonight, but I'm sure you'll get more volunteers. Thanks!
@Cl3Kener. Thank you for supporting skyrocket. I have been porting black liquid from t989 for months and it runs awesome. Downloading uber kernel now. Very eager to try.
Edit: tried beta 1 and 2, both do not boot on my port of black liquid 09-23-13 and wantowan2s newest beanstock build.
Giving Beta 2 a flash now, will update on rotation status
---------- Post added at 04:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 AM ----------
So same results here, beta 2 will not boot. Flashing back to beta 1 doesn't boot either. Going to try a clean flash with beta 2 now
---------- Post added at 04:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:10 AM ----------
After a clean flash of PAC 9/28 nightly and the Beta 2 kernel, still no boot. Back to beta 1 for now
I guess this was more challenging than I would have thought! :/
So I just updated Beta 3. I think this time I've got it right finally! Try it and see!
Thanks for being patient with me!

Everything except for TW etc, is AOSP based - Parts of CM 's device tree may be used - but it's still AOSP ultimately.

Introducing Torched Kernel for Evita!!
First I must give some thanks to all the great developers that paved the way for this, for I would have nothing if it wasn't for these guys. Most of this work is a collection of various pathes from many devs, adapted into our CM kernel. So, if you have the chance to speak with any of these guys, make sure you spread some appreciation around. The list includes but is not limited to:
Intervigil, H8rift, kushdeck, mdmower, flemmard, codeworxs, Faux123, Flar2, zarboz, showp1984, tbalden.
Also I'd like to add my fellow custom kernel devs rmbq (ville) and NineInchNails (evo 4G) whom i've had the oppertunity to bounce ideas off of and share some work.
Kernel for AOSP roms only!!
Based on CM's current 3.4 kernel
Compiled with Christopher83's custom tweaked GCC 4.9.3 linaro toolchain
This should work on all 5.0 AOSP roms for EVITA
FEATURES:
Interactive/ROW by default
1.7ghz OC available (1.5ghz is stock/default setting) - REMOVED IN noOC/noVC VERSION
3 stage 2D/3D GPU OC avaialable (200/400 stock/default setting, 320/512 max) - REMOVED IN noOC/noVC VERSION
Voltage Control -as implemented by Faux123 - REMOVED IN noOC/noVC VERSION
QCOM Vmin Bypass (allows CPU to follow stock voltages tables rather than qcom enforced minimum voltage for errata cases - REMOVED IN noOC/noVC VERSION
3 stagekernel based thermal control from Showp1984
S2W/DT2W/POCKET DETECTION from flar2 (off by default)
BLN (button light notification) from tbalden, blinks hardkey backlight when there are pending notifications (off by default)
Dynamic Fsync from Faux 123
Additional Gov/Sched options
USB FAST CHARGE
Faux sound control patches from Faux123
Advanced TCP Congestion Control Choices
Bunches of minor optimizations from all over github. My source is always current with my releases and possibly any new work, feel free to check in on it anytime for the full list of tweaks and thier sources.
JB CHANGELOGS
Code:
[B]Initial build[/B]
Keeping it simple for the first build, more to come
-USB fast charge (off by default,turn on w/ trickster/KT)
-Added governors ( Intellidemand, smartmax)
-Added schedulers (BFQ, fiops, SIO)
-reverted recent linux .61/.62 updates as they may be root cause of frequent bootloops (TESTING THEORY HERE)
-dynaimc fsync, advanced SHA1/AES algorithms from faux123
-better cpu freq control (will help with OC later)
-all the linaro build flags and -O2 flags
[B] B2 [/B]
- BLN is working now (off by default)
-enable with trickster/kernel tuner
-IMPORTANT NOTE: This will break variable button brightness control recently added in CM and maybe other roms as well...sorry can't have both.
-I will post a flashable revert zip for the required file permmisions change if there is a demand for it.
-Also made a few mods to boost freqs on smartmax gov.
[B] B3 [/B]
TWO VERSIONS - OC/VC and NO OC/VC
-GPU OC 266 2d / 480 3d enabled by default on both
-Kernel updated to fix display issues
-OC/VC version allows OC to 1.7, 15 at boot and remains there by default use KT or Trickster to enable
-OC/VC remove vmin errate cases that force a higher minimu voltage at low freq. Allows CPU to follow our designed coltage tables
If this causes issues on your device try raising voltage or switching to the NO OC/VC version.
[B]B4[/B]
ONE VERSION ONLY
ALL OPTION OFF/STOCK BY DEFAULT
- Faux sound control credit to Faux123
- 3 stage thermal control by showp1984
Allows users controlled controlled limits for thermal throttling
- S2W /DT2W fix from rmbq/thicklizard.
- S2W/DT2W as implemented by flar2 with pocket detection.
- GPU OC steps added and set to stock speeds by default
Again all boots up like stock... If you want the options turn them on. Most kernel apps include options to set profiles at boot :)
[B]B5[/B]
-O3 optimizations
Added optional lower min frequency (168 mhz)
All Cm updates
[B]B6[/B]
-started over from B4 base

Voltage bump init script
Disclaimer : While this has been thoroughly tested, I cannot guarantee your device will not melt, explode or scare away kittens and babies. You know the risks involved , if you don't you shouldn't be here.
VOLTAGE INFO
*WARNING: messing with voltages can cause serious instability, luckily a clean flash will erase whatever you screw up*
Qcom knew our chips were shaddy and introduce a "vmin" check based on the chip Id's. If your chip is flagged, which most of ours are, it forces a minimum voltage on all freq of 1150mv instead of whatever the voltage table calls for. Since I introduced voltage control I've been disabling this check, this is why people have been getting such good battery life. Unfortunately this has caused instability or SOD on some users devices. The easy solution here is to use the VMIN version, (and give up 4hr screen time battery life) which leaves this check in place.
If your device can handle it use the normal version. Or if you like to tinker, try the normal version, if you have SOD issues raise the voltages slightly on the lower 5-6 frequencies until your device becomes more stable.
HOW TO FIND YOUR STOCK VOLTAGE TABLE:
usign a root file explorer, navigate to /proc/last_kmsg and copy the file to your sdcard. Many file readers will not oopen this file from the root directory. Open the file and search for " ACPU PVS", it should be around line 220 or so.
ACPU PVS : 0 = SLOW
ACPU PVS : 1 = NOM
ACPU PVS : 3 = FAST
Code:

Tried to install this. Install aborted after doing a fair few things with status code 1. Reboot device just has CM left at the CM logo circling.
Now my CWM does not function even after reflashing it with fastboot. On booting into recovery it immediately reboots the device back to the white HTC logo then onto CM logo.
Installed TWRP 2.6.3.0 and that does the same boot loop.
Cant boot ROM, cant boot recovery. Fun fun
Not sure what has gone wrong but I would not suggest flashing this kernel without having full access to adb and fastboot. And dont do it at 1am when about to sleep
Edit:
fasboot erase cache seems to have gotten recoveries back on track.

I had been on the 10/6 nightly. Downloaded the 10/09 nightly, this kernel, booted into twrp and flashed both. Worked perfectly.
It booted fine here, over carbon and slimbean no issue at all. Twrp 2.6.3.
Good job dev !!! First aosp 4.3 custom kernel. You're the man !! :thumbup::beer::thumbup:
Works fine on my end

You just made my day
I'm on the 10/6 CM 10.2 nightly, just flashed this after another reboot session from the stock CM kernel. So far so good. I'll update tomorrow with any relevant info. Thanks jrior001
I was on cm 10/04, cwm 6.0.3.1 (non touch).
When I get a sec I will check the download. The zip looks healthy but maybe its corrupt. Everyone else seems to be going fine so might just be something localized to me.

you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
Pls Read This before flashing:
You need ROM's default kernel before flashing this as this kernel makes use of AnyKernel 2 by @osm0sis. Make sure you have it otherwise clean flash the kernel with the rom to avoid any issues.(At least dirty flash rom+kernel) Credits to @attack11 for some part of install script.Read FAQ's and changelogs in 2nd post. THIS KERNEL COMES FINE TUNED OUT OF THE BOX.

Looking for changelogs??
Here they are!!!
F.A.Q. - Read this before complaining!
1. My phone exploded, HELP!
A: I don't answer to problems without a log. The log file is in /proc/last_kmsg. Paste it on pastie.org and link it on your post. Logcats are useless for Kernel purposes, don't bother posting them.
2. This kernel works on Y or X rom?
A: Works on all CM12/12.1 and AOSP roms. Not for stock roms!!
3. OMG BATTERY SUCKZ, ITZ DEAD IN 45 MINUTES, HELP!
A: As you can imagine I don't build kernels to decrease battery life. All the battery life problems come from your apps, either Facebook, or Maps, or some Location Service being enabled etc etc. Check your damn wakelocks and fix them, the kernel is not responsible for them.
4. How do I flash this?
A: Read the OP, theres a reason why I added instructions on it.
5. What is a data loss? Did I just had one?
A: Data loss is simply having the connection cut for X periods of time, usually few seconds. Grey bars means the device is not connected to Google services for some weird reason, but you'll still have internet connection.
6. OP is arrogant, I'm gonna call the Internet Police?
A: Deal with it.
Many thanks to showp1984 for this info
What is msm_mpdecision?
100% kernel based multi core decision! (should cpu1/2/3 be online or not?)
This is a special version modded by neobuddy Plus the idle frequency and some load thresholds have been adjusted by me.
Some Configuration:
startdelay = time until mpdecision starts doing it's magic (20000)
delay = time between checks (130)
pause = if something else plugs in the cpu, fall asleep for 10000ms (10 secs)
scroff_single_core = if the screen is off, don't plug in cpu1/2/3. Additionally: Unplug all cpus except cpu0 when screen is turned off (1)
enabled = enable(1) or disable(0) mpdecision. This does not affect scroff_single_core!
min_cpus = min cpus to be online, cannot be < 1. Default: 1
max_cpus = max cpus to be online, cannot be > 4. (if you set it to 2 and min_cpus to 1 you will basically have a dualcore) Default: 4
idle_freq = a value against that will be checked if a core +/- is requested. (600 MHz)
mpdecision's input event boost, aka project butter
This will boost your min cpu speed if you touch the screen or press a button and gives you full control.
In those events the min cpu freq will be risen to a predefined value on every online cpu. This boosts overall reaction times and smoothness a lot. (works similar to the qcom mpdecision binary)
Good to see one more kernel

Installed on my XT1032 16GB CM12 . Intellidemand/Noop and it runs great , very smooth scrolling tested with G+ in the Browser.
How about the camera performance? On other kernels, it would freeze after touching the shutter and requires a reboot.
Anyways, great job on making another kernel available for Lollipop
Thanks for the intelliplug and a bunch of governors
