Introduction
This kernel is designed to be more stable than the stock kernel, with more features and more performance. Choose any three.
I do not include any changes that have no clear positive effect on these goals.
Features
zImage (kernel binary) features:
- Asus 10.6.1.14.10 base
- Support for Samsung's F2FS filesystem (experimental) and exFAT
- ISO 9660 + UDF support (CD/DVD filesystems)
- CIFS (for mounting Windows shares)
- BFQ I/O scheduler (http://algo.ing.unimo.it/people/paolo/disk_sched/) v7r5; ROW I/O scheduler v4 (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1862241/) and "deadline" is also available
- fsync control (echo 0 > /sys/class/misc/fsynccontrol/fsync_enabled)
- Overclocking up to 1800 MHz, based on clemsyn's patch, configurable clock frequencies for balanced and performance mode
- User voltage control for undervolting
- Crash fixes when reading various files in /sys
- mount space hack from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=36889027 allows mounting across Android processes again (e.g. using CIFS Manager)
- NFS v3/v4 client (supports files > 2 GB)
- NFS v3/v4 server as module (untested, needs userspace tools which I haven't yet compiled)
- Framebuffer console at boot (Android penguins!)
- Keyboard dock: support for F1-F12 function keys, special key mappings for CyanogenMod and GNU/Linux (Esc, Insert, Delete, Alt, Windows)
- Support for various USB Ethernet adapters and FTDI serial port adapters
- Kexec-able and able to kexec other kernels
- SELinux is not included for compatibility with the stock ROM's proprietary NTFS and exFAT drivers
- Tethering via dock USB port (untested), see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52917184&postcount=2740
Ramdisk features:
- adbd with root access enabled in default.prop, ro.secure=0
- optimized mount options (noauto_da_alloc)
- init.d script support
- USB IDs for all Tegra 3 based Transformer models (init.xx.rc)
- does not set lcd_density (dpi unlocked), must/can be set in /system/build.prop instead
- preinit system for easy ramdisk customization without repacking or reflashing the kernel: if exists, runs a custom script "/system/boot/preinit" before Android init, e.g. for adding Data2SD detection, ROM2SD, etc.
- File-system auto-detection for use in preinit scripts
Installation/Download
Flash the zip in recovery and reboot; the bootloader will move the kernel to its final place while showing a blue progress bar.
Compatibility
This kernel is compatible with the 10.6.1.14.x bootloaders and stock-based (Asus Android 4.2.1) ROMs that set lcd_density (dpi) in build.prop - in other words, this is the preferred kernel for CleanROM Inheritance. It also works with other ROMs up to Android 4.4 (requires a preinit script to provide the corresponding ramdisk files). The kernel is derived from the original TF700T sources but is known to work also on the TF300.
MD5 sum:
You don't need an MD5 sum. Enable "Zip file signature verification" in TWRP instead - it checks the SHA1 checksum embedded in the archive, which is both more secure and more convenient.

2013-04-11: 3.1.10-10.6.1.14.4-that2
The Asus source release was surprisingly fast this time. I ported all my popular non-intrusive stock kernel improvements (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2125783) and recompiled the kernel. Special thanks to buhohitr for testing this release!
I couldn't get the framebuffer console to work, so no UltraCleanROM support for now.
(-that2 downloads deleted)
Documentation
This kernel supports a few additional parameters. As usual these can be set from a root shell or an init script - for details how to do that, read a tutorial about using the Unix/Linux command line.
fsync
To turn off fsync (warning: read this and this before):
Code:
echo 0 > /sys/class/misc/fsynccontrol/fsync_enabled
To turn it on, write 1 instead of 0.
Clock speeds and overclocking
Note that the special overclocked system_mode 3 has been removed in -that10. There are now only 3 modes, as in the stock kernel (powersave, balanced, performance). To enable overclocking beyond 1700 MHz (or 1600 MHz for more than one core), you need to override the EDP limit:
Code:
echo 1 > /sys/module/cpu_tegra/parameters/override_edp
To set clock speeds for balanced and performance mode, for example:
Code:
echo 1300 > /sys/module/cpu_tegra/parameters/override_mhz_bal
echo 1800 > /sys/module/cpu_tegra/parameters/override_mhz_perf
User voltage control
works exactly like in upstream implementation - ask me to update this if you want to know more.
Keyboard dock tweaks
CyanogenMod has a slightly different mapping for some of the dock function keys. To enable compatibility with CM and CM-based ROMs:
Code:
echo 1 > /sys/module/asusdec/parameters/cm_mode
Function keys F1 to F12 can be entered using right Alt/AltGr and the keys from "Toggle WiFi" to "Next Track". This might only work in native Linux and maybe CM.
For native Linux users, I added additional parameters:
Code:
echo $flags > /sys/module/asusdec/parameters/key_flags
echo 1 > /sys/module/asusdec/parameters/key_autorepeat
where $flags is a number between 0 and 15, by combining these bit flags:
1 = inverts the meaning of Alt for function keys (F1-F12 without Alt, and special functions with Alt. Also, Mute is Insert and Lock is Delete.)
2 = Back is Esc
4 = Search is left Alt
8 = Home is left Windows (aka "Meta" aka "Super_L")
Thanks so much for the RIL patch that seems like fixed my compiling problems lets see
IM just a noob here trying to compile and learn hehe:victory:
EDIT: Yes it compiled
Now I ask myself why Asus released a bad source code lol?

The RIL include fix is old news - it was already required in the 10.4.4.x kernel, and it's published in my 10.4.4.25 kernel release thread.

Learning by doing is still the best way. If you manage to get your own kernel installed and running (if not, read my blob repacking guide), then you have definitely left the "n00b" status.

Maybe they are using an older compiler that behaves differently.
Thanks man I already knew how to make the blob file and put the signing in, I used to help clemsyn packing its kernel when he didnt have time and well I did it tonight :good: I compile my kernel thanks now will learn how to make it with linaro
EDIT:
P.D I left the n00b status some time ago lol

That patch has nothing to do with sdbags roms,that patch contains all the changes made to the original kernel and it's for development only (you can apply that patch to the original or own 4.2.1 kernel source).

I had already changed the build prop file to set dpi to 213 and when I flashed this new kernel it held the setting.
Obviously if you edit the build prop file then your setting remains however if you haven't then maybe it will change to 160. This I'm not sure about since if the default set by stock ROM is 240 and this is what we edit, why would it change to 160?

For some unknown reason, the default build.prop on the TF700 contains the line "ro.sf.lcd_density=160" - the correct 240 dpi is set by the stock kernel's ramdisk. I removed the latter, so the setting in build.prop takes effect.

Here come our custom 32A kernel
Updated, see changelog
Sorry for the delay, I was taking some sun and some work .
http://www.mediafire.com/?mjgm5gcgmya
README:
Code:
HTC Magic Sapphire PVT32A kernel build.
This kernel build is only for 32A (HTC branded) version of the HTC magic.
It's designed to run FAST. (much more than the stock kernel).
I made some improvement in the config, removed uneeded things (all of this debuging message, hooks, ... is not needed for everyday use,
and use precious CPU cycle for nothing :).
You can use this kernel in your current ROM but you need to known what you're doing. (Boot image and ramdisk knownledge are required).
If you don't have those skills, you can wait a ROM cooker to build a ROM with this kernel for you. (It's not a subliminal message :p).
Hope you'll enjoy it.
In this archive you'll find:
README -> this file :)
CHANGELOG -> Errr... oh yes, got it! It's the changelog!
boot-gbo-v4.img -> An boot image. You can try to boot it but you'll be more lucky if you ask your ROM builder :).
zImage -> for ROM builders. You can include it in your boot.img file
config.gz -> The config used to compile the kernel.
wlan.ko -> Wlan driver for the kernel in this archive.

Excellent job.
Any chance you wanna talk me through building a kernel!?
I think someone need to make a goot tutorial about this! (getting sources, applying the patch, building kernel, builder wlan module...)
I'm not a fan of making documentation but if nobody do it, I will, because the knownledge must be shared

It's a nice basic kernel. But just wondering, in the original thread, it's stated that LED is working. But my Rogers Magic still doesn't show red LED during charging. Any explanations?
Thanks, 2.6.29 with compcache and the common g1 kernel modules would be nice =]
Any dangers with trying to use this, or things to watch out for?
This boot.img does not work with the Rogers ROM for me It gets stuck at the Rogers logo...

Does your kernel allow changing the CPU freq? The previous one you made would not allow the CPU frequency to be set (By apps, etc)
is it permission problem... you cant write the frequencies?!
Just grabbed setcpu and it seems to halt after the intial page so it just freezes up after hiting the "always allow" page from the superuser app just after hiting "android cupcake 1.5" from the intial page of the app it self... what im trying to say that i dont think its a permission problem...
So I just unpack boot-gbo.img and put the kernel in any rom?
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
i cant find anything beyond cpu0.

Since this is active:
Code:
CONFIG_MSM_CPU_FREQ_SCREEN=y
CONFIG_MSM_CPU_FREQ_SCREEN_OFF=245760
CONFIG_MSM_CPU_FREQ_SCREEN_ON=528000
Manual cpu scaling cannot be done.
Seems that many people doesn't like this behavior. I am currently reviewing the config to made some performance improvement and will release 2.6.27-gbo-3 during this day.
Small poll so:
CONFIG_MSM_CPU_FREQ_SCREEN or CONFIG_MSM_CPU_FREQ ?

Well, I definitely like to set my CPU and this is pretty common in the stock kernels and other 32B kernels, so I would stick with this. Of course, this is -your- kernel, so you can do it exactly how you want to. :3
It's not "mine" . It's your kernel and my build
Better, it's a community kernel
I'll revert back to stock configuration for this part .

Hey i don't wanna sound annoying lol since i already said this but any chance of compcache, squashfs, and cgroup? i'm pretty sure non of them are on the current build since there is lines in the ramdisk im using that try to use these features but it's failing and ofcourse just by looking at "mount"....
thanks for the hard work,
This is a kernel, build from the recently released saga-ics-crc-3.0.16-62a67df source.
Compatible with all ICS (Android 4) + Sense (3.6, 4A or 4) based ROMs
OFFICIAL MIUIv4 and Stock rooted ICS users can enjoy init.d scripts support with this kernelEnjoy!BACK2BASICS EDITION
FEATURES
Interactive Aroma Installer
Completely Stock code, with only 2 additions by me:
Configurable sweep2wake.
Ported bcmdhd wireless driver from the HTC One V latest source code for better reception and no wakelocks. Still breaks WiFi tethering in ROMs based on Sense 3.6. Tethering works fine in Sense 4
Completely Stock ramdisk. The only changes are:
Unsecured boot.img (adb remount and USB debugging)
Busybox run-parts (init.d scripts) support
Some extra lines, required for the proper operation of the new WiFi driver
No OC, UV, optimizations or any other changes.
Compiled with the recommended by HTC toolchain 4.4.3
ISSUES
For all with BLUETOOTH issues: use 4EXT Recovery
due to incompatibility with sweep2wake the native Sense screenshot function has to be disabled (on some ROMs Power+Volume Down is working- 10x to rzr09 for pointing it out). You will need to change the value of ro.htc.framework.screencapture = , located in /system/build.prop from true to falsemanually, using any root file explorer. To make it functional again (if you decide to disable s2w) just change back from false to true
NEW USERS: before flashing install/update BusyBox in /system/xbin (with some of the apps available in the Google Play - the one by Stericsson+Smart Install worked fine for me) and check for the existence of the busybox binary and run-parts symlink in the /system/xbin folder on your device. If there is no such files install/reinstall BusyBox until you have it.
OPTIONAL: If you do not have an /system/etc/init.d folder AND you want to use additional modules you should create it manually BEFORE flashing the kernel:adb remount
adb shell
mkdir /system/etc/init.d
chmod 775 /system/etc/init.d

S-OFF users: flash in recovery, no wipe required. Follow the instructions
HTCDEV users: flash in recovery, no wipe required; follow the instructions, reboot straight to bootloader and flash the corresponding to your ROM boot.img (extract it from the zip) with th following commands:adb reboot bootloader
fastboot erase boot
fastboot flash boot XXX_boot.imgIMPORTANT (HTCdev users): if you are using 4EXT Recovery Control for flashing make sure to select the "Stay in recovery after flashing" option!
Boot images are:
Sense4_boot.img - for all Sense4 based ROMs (Fallout, ProjectX, Cooldroid, Sabsa Prime, Desire XS, ViperSaga, others)
Custom_Sense36_boot.img - for ICE_DS, Stock ICS by masteross, or other custom Sense 3.6 ROM without lib partition
Stock_Sense36_boot.img - for Ice Cream Saga or clean RUU/PG88IMG (that keeps S-OFF and Recovery) install (rooted)
MIUIv4_boot.img - for any version of official MIUIv4
NOTES:
There is no boot.img for Virtuous Infinity since it cannot operate smooth with the Stock CPU settings
If sweep2wake takes screenshot upon screen off in this version you have to modify your build.prop manually (see above)
PATCHED KERNEL 3.0.89
Due to controversial feedback on Tweaked kernel starting from version 5.0 I have decided to take a different approach.
Patched kernel unifies the concept of both Tweaked3 and B2B kernels.
So what does this mean?
The HTC source is taken as a base and is synced completely with the upstream (the official Android kernel 3.0) where applicable. Since it is patched only up to 3.0.72 the rest of the patches are taken directly from the Linux kernel upstream.
All is done from scratch and revising every single commit (it took me 4 days to complete this only). The result is absolutely clean merge (not as in Tweaked where I took the patches from other developers without actually knowing have they screw up something in the progress). During the patching I have discovered some misses or copy-paste from 3.4 upstream (which I consider for another generation devices and probably the changes from there are not completely suitable for our device). I have cleaned and synced with the 3.0 upstream all not-updated files that I discovered during the patching.
FEATURESThe features of the kernel are the basic ones from Tweaked, but staying as close as possible to the Stock configuration (B2B concept):
Interactive Aroma Installer
Compiled with GCC 4.4.3 toolchain
Patched to Linux Kernel version 3.0.89
Synced with Android kernel 3.0 upstream
Overclockable to 1.5 GHz
Added VDD sysfs interface for userspace UV control
Stock Frequencies and Voltages
Default governor: INTERACTIVE @ 254 - 1024 MHz
Interactive governor updated from android 3.4 upstream
Default scheduler: DEADLINE
Configurable Sweep2Wake
Fixed WiFi tethering on Sense 4 based ROMs
Updated WiFi drvier from HTC One V source
Built-in CIFS support
Built-in TUN support
Built-in NTFS + NLS_UTF8 support
Optional WiFi calling
Two way call recording - both WAV and AMR
Enabled USB OTG HOST (big thanks to astro757 and engelmarkus)
Enabled SWAP support
ISSUES
If your WiFi does not work upon install check this solution /10x to toxic-hero/
Sometimes the sweep2wake does not work instantly after deep sleep period. Just swipe once more to unlock the device or press the search button.
due to incompatibility with sweep2wake the native Sense screenshot function has to be disabled (on some ROMs Power+Volume Down is working- 10x to rzr09 for pointing it out). You will need to change the value of ro.htc.framework.screencapture = , located in /system/build.prop from true to false manually, using any root file explorer. To make it functional again (if you decide to disable s2w) just change back from false to true
For all with BLUETOOTH issues: use 4EXT Recovery
USEFUL INFORMATION, PLEASE READOverclocking applications, reported to work:
If you are in doubt which governor and IO scheduler to use - there is a lot of useful info here (thanks to Tectas and the authors)
SetCPU
Voltage Control {settings not stick after reboot on Virtuous Infinity}
No-frills CPU Control {settings not stick after reboot on Virtuous Infinity}
Daemon Controller app + andrev_oc script
note1: there is virtuous_oc on Virtuous Infinity already, so you can use only the Daemon Controller app
note2: oc daemons are not supporting scheduler changing
undervolting can be done with a command from Terminal Emulator or adb shell:echo -X > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/vdd_levelswhere X is the desired value (-25, -50, -75, -100, -125 or whatever you like). Unfortunately has to be repeated after every reboot since putting it in an init.d script is risky
Originally posted by engelmarkusHi,
I played around with the experimental branch of your kernel once more and today it works perfectly.
Keyboards, mice and USB storage devices work without any messing with the terminal. For almost-auto-mounting I used this app here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....shajul.usbotg
So I think you can very well enable this in your next kernel version so others can try this out, too.

16 Dec 2012: Tweaked3 XI:
Compiled with the latest stable Linaro GCC 4.7.3-2012.11 toolchain
Patched to Linux Kernel version 3.0.56
Upstream update of interactive governor change speed routine
Enabled TINY_PREEMPT_RCU - should give small-memory-footprint on uniprocessor systems (where all processing tasks share a single CPU)
23 Nov 2012: Tweaked3 10.0 (X):
Patched to Linux Kernel version 3.0.52
Removed all third party governors
Removed BFQ, VR and CFQ schedulers
Tweaked SIO for better performance on Android
All modules built-in, except the one for WiFi Calling (kineto-gan.ko - optional)
No more init.d scripts, except for sweep2wake
During installation a /system/etc/init.d folder will be created, with the right permissions on ROMs that do not have such
09 Nov 2012: Tweaked3 9.0:
Compiled with the latest Linaro Toolchain 4.7.3-2012.10
Patched to Linux Kernel version 3.0.51 (10x to oliverclaude)
Ondemand and Interactive governors synced to upstream (10x to Andromadus)
Scheduler improvements (10x to faux123)
16 Oct 2012: Tweaked3 8.6:
Patched to Linux Kernel version 3.0.46
Updated BFQ code to v5 (10x to Andromadus repo)
2WCR now makes recording in WAV format (10x to Andromadus repo)
BCMDHD wireless driver is updated to the latest HTC One V source - there are some changes related to the Country Codes, so please anyone that has such issues to try it without WiFi FIx app and report
Initialization of the wireless modules moved to ramdisk, no need of init.d script to run them anymore, so new users can skip that part and go straight to flashing!
10 Oct 2012: Tweaked3 8.5:
Patched to Linux Kernel 3.0.45
Added ck1 patchset by Ziggy (thx to Coolexe) - aims towards better performance
Removed ZRAM - it seems that the compression was the reason for the battery drain
Removed the script for changing the screencapture line in build prop from Aroma, hopefully this will solve the installation issues. You will have to change it manually if needed
01 Oct 2012: Tweaked3 8.0:
Aroma installer - one file for all. No need to do any preparations anymore (like changes of the updater-script, etc) The installer will gather the important information about your ROM and hboot and the flashing process will be done accordingly.
HTCDEV users: there are instructions in the first post which boot.img to flash. Important: if you are using 4EXT Recovery Control for flashing make sure to select the "Stay in recovery after flashing" option!
All governors are tuned up according to the CPU frequencies (should have done it long time ago, sorry for the delay). OndemandX (proved unstable) and Userspace (doubt that anyone even uses it) governors removed
CIFS, TUN, KINETO_GAN, NTFS+NLS_UTF8 and ZRAM moved to modules for optional install (the installer will give you a menu for selection, where the purpose of each module is explained)
Updated LZO compression/decompression method for ZRAM (it sould be at least twice faster now)
TREE_RCU and SLAB memory allocator set as default (as it was in the Stock kernel).
21 Sep 2012: Tweaked3 7.1:
Patched to Linux kernel version 3.0.43
Compiled with the latest stable Linaro GCC 4.7-2012.08 toolchain
Added VDD sysfs interface (10x to lowveld) for userspace UV control (comes with Stock Voltages by default)
Added BrazilianWax, InteractiveX and OndemandX governors
All modules except bcmdhd.ko are built-in in the kernel
Finally found the reason of the battery drain when the Screen is ON and hopefully fixed it. Now the battery life should be rock solid
Flashable zips should be fixed for good. They now will wipe dalvik-cache and cache during flash, no need to do it manually. Version 5.0 zips are backwards compatible (this means you can flash version 5 over version 7.1 without additional actions (deleting or moving files)
05 Sep 2012: Tweaked3 6.0:
Added bcmdhd WiFi driver and fix WiFi Tethering on Sense 4 ROMs (10x to m0narx)
Flashable zips are back!
Comes is two flavors - undervolted -100 and Stock voltages

Enabled full capacity charge in non-OEM chargers (e.g. some car chargers)
Enabled NTFS + NLS_UTF8 support
Enabled PPP_ASYNC and PPP_SYNC_TTY
Enabled ZRAM - adds another 100 MB to your RAM as a SWAP partition (use 52-zram init.d script to load it)
Enabled USB-OTG (needs confirmation, since I do not have the necessary equipment) - not working
27 Aug 2012: Tweaked3 4.7:
Expanded frequency table - to give the CPU more steps until the highest frequency
Slight undervolting to save some battery life
Fixed backlight staying on when pressing only home button when s2w with backlights enabled (10x to scan6 for the heads up)
Default clock frequency is 1024 MHz for everyone that requested it
Enabled init.d support in the MIUIv4 version (now you can use the 50-sweep2wake script too)
Separate installation files and instructions for S-ON (hboot 2.00.0002) and S-OFF (hboot 0.98.2000, 2.00.2002, 7.xx) users
25 Aug 2012: Tweaked3 4.0:

On Fallout the backlight works as it should.
In a room without direct sunlight - off
On screen off - off
Outdoor or in a dark place - on
Try in different conditions, maybe there is too much light where you are
I wish it was usable for non Sense ROMs

It's perfect! I haven't seen so cool and fast rom as fallout with this kernel yet!
Is it not harmful for Desire S to overclock to 1.5 GHz ?
Shouldnt make any harm going to 1.5.
Now the kernel source, is https://github.com/showp1984/bricked-shooteru-ics-sense what you releasing? if no you need to release the exact kernel source you using, laws
I dont want any saga dev to have issues
Edit:
More then that, some devices comes with stock 1.5 with same processor but remember, the more you put, the less battery
Hi, is there a way to revert it to stock? Thanks.

Good point
Yes the changes for sweep2wake are the same, made by showp1984, unmodified by me
And yes, this is the stock OC, I have just enabled it for the time being.
I am pretty sure that soon there will be much more tweaked and polished kernels made by the experienced devs, but since most of them are taking summer holidays I compiled this one for playing with Sense 4 until they come back to development

Yes you can always flash the original boot.img of the ROM that you are using via fastboot. Then copy the bcm4329.ko and kineto_gan.ko of your original ROM to /system/lib/modules with any root file explorer. To restore the stock screenshot feature change the value ro.htc.framework.screencapture from false to true in your build.prop

Update 2013-04-01 (3.1.10-10.4.4.25-that6):
With a small fix for a crash when reading a file in /sys, the revolutionary pre-init system from v5, and a more complete Data2SD package:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39822992&postcount=239
Update 2013-03-24 (3.1.10-10.4.4.25-that5):
The latest experimental kernel is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39528295&postcount=227
Update 2013-03-05 (3.1.10that4):
The latest kernel is up: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38797590&postcount=194
New features: User voltage control and Data2SD auto-detection.
End Update 2013-03-05
Update 2013-02-06 (3.1.10that2):
After positive feedback from testers and due to popular demand, here is my latest kernel with the experimental new "ROW" I/O scheduler. If you want to know more, read the documentation in the patch here: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1862241/ . Please note that this is a rather new development and not yet merged into a mainstream kernel, so it has not been widely tested. However, all results from XDA members were neutral or positive so far.
End update 2013-02-06
Since Asus seemed to have forgotten to release the 10.4.4.25 kernel sources, I reminded them politely - and finally the sources are available for download from their support site!
This is the first kernel ever that I cross-compiled myself - be gentle.
zImage (kernel binary) features:
- Asus 10.4.4.25 base
- fsync control
- ISO 9660 + UDF support (CD/DVD filesystems)
- CIFS (for mounting Windows shares)
New in 3.1.10that2 (2013-02-06):
- ROW I/O scheduler (prioritize READ requests over WRITE requests on eMMC/SD cards) included as default
New in 3.1.10that4 (2013-03-05):
- User voltage control for undervolting
New in 3.1.10-10.4.4.25-that5 (2013-03-24):
- Penguins! (framebuffer console)
New in 3.1.10-10.4.4.25-that6 (2013-04-01):
- No more crash when reading /sys/bus/nvhost/drivers/tegradc/tegradc.0/nvdps
Ramdisk features:
- insecure adbd
- init.d support
- does not set lcd_density (dpi unlocked)
in the -data2sd versions only:
- mount points modified for the Data2SD mod (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1962507)
New in 3.1.10that4 (2013-03-05):
- auto-detection of data2sd - if the microSD card is inserted at boot time and it contains a second partition, it is assumed to be a data2sd partition and mounted as /data. Otherwise, the system is booted with /data mounted to internal storage as usual.
New in 3.1.10-10.4.4.25-that5 (2013-03-24):

This kernel (and all others in this thread) is compatible with stock-based (Asus Android 4.1.1) ROMs that set lcd_density (dpi) in build.prop - in other words, this is the preferred kernel for CleanROM Inheritance.

(You might now ask "where is the overclocked version"? I decided to start with a known stable base for my first release - if this one turns out to work fine, the oc build comes next.) - for overclocked version, read next post!
Overclocked!
This is 3.1.10that1-oc - the version with clemsyn's overclocking patches. Please note that I only extracted and then applied his patches to the current kernel and typed "make" - I don't understand all the scary frequency and voltage tables, and I don't know how it works in detail. However I got up to 7130 points in this benchmark thingy, and system tuner shows 1.8 GHz, so it appears to do something.
Please note that this is only the kernel, and it does not contain clemsyn's changes for the Asus performance modes. As you may know, the 3 Asus performance modes are activated by running shell scripts in /system/etc named cpu1.sh to cpu3.sh. Clemsyn's kernels replace balanced mode with performance mode, and performance mode with the new overclocked mode. This kernel does not do that, it leaves your modes as they were!
Depending which kernel you were using before, the following will happen:
- Coming from a stock kernel, you keep balanced and performance modes, and the extra overclocking mode can only be activated by executing /system/etc/cpu4.sh. If you want, you can rename cpu2.sh to cpu2_original.sh, cpu3.sh to cpu2.sh and cpu4.sh to cpu3.sh, then you have performance mode as default instead of balanced, and overclocking mode if you activate "performance mode" - same as clemsyn's. If this is too complicated for you, you can either flash clemsyn's kernel directly before this one, or wait until someone repackages this kernel.
- Coming from clemsyn's kernel, performance modes should work as before. Please don't ask me which specific variant of clemsyn's kernels this one is comparable with - he released only one source package, which I used, but many different kernel binaries. I can't recreate other versions without clemsyn releasing sources for those specific versions.
zImage (kernel binary) features:
- all of the above
- Overclocking and voltage control
Ramdisk features:
- same as non-overclocked version
Additional credits:
- clemsyn, for his amazing overclocking kernel

Same zImage with the ramdisk from the previous data2sd kernel.
Note: this is not a data2sd installer, it's only a new kernel to drop into an existing data2sd installation.
Working well so far! :good:

Great news! Your new data2sd kernel is working very well. All data mountings are correct and fsync is woring wonder! Great job!
1. When PC hook up to device, on PC I see:
a. Internal - ext4 parition on microsdcard
b. Micro - Fat32 partition on microsdcard
c.-SD - Dock SDcard.
2. Disabled fysnc - working wonder, gain 600+ on Quadrant.
I have been using Sandisk Extreme Pro class 10 (95mb/s) and it's very stable (Did not work before with Clemsyn Kernel). With fsync disabled, a gain of 600 point bring Quadrant to 6639 from 5995/6005 without OC. The tablet is super smooth and fast with fsync disabled. I can see the apps are launching faster from stand still, if they already in memory, BAM it's there. Browser also faster, Gallery loaded much faster and I got over 2 thousand pictures. In summary, I'm impress and very happy....just couldn't wait for the OverClock version.. Again, great job _that!! :good::good:
Edit: I will be running this for a week to see if any issue with journaling and fsync disabled on this super fast sdcard. Will report back.
Update 1/30 @ 10:30pm est - After 4 1/2 hrs, this tablet stills running smooth and quick. Very happy with this kind of performance, probably the best to date. What I'm really exciting about is, there still more room for performance....when "_that Overclock kernel" arrived..
tried this on PA, and I get a message, upgrading apps, but then it hangs. Is this to work on all ROMS, or just stock?

Should be just for stock Cleanrom.
Tried this fantastic kernel in the last 5 hours and it is smooth, had no problem at all. Epic Citadel reports a benchmark of 38.9 fps.
Can't wait to try the OC version of it. Also waiting for the SanDisk Extreme to arrive from Amazon to try out the data2sd too.
Re: [KERNEL] 3.1.10that1 ★ 10.4.4.25 + fsync + ISO9660 + CIFS
I can confirm that data2sd version is working great. Waiting for the OC version. Good job!
So how does one disable fsync?
Flash this kernel, reflash ROM with no kernel option and fsync disable checked, or?
Just flashed this kernel. I have disabled fsync and my tablet has sped up. Thanks for this kernel _that.

1. Reflash CleanRom 3.2.1
2. Disable Fsync during the installer
3. Reboot
4. Wipe Devlink Cache/Cache
5. Flash this kernel
This should disable fsync with this kernel.

Hello i just want to say thanks, i am using the data2sd version without any problem.
If someone is interested in the kernel changes between 10.4.4.23 and 10.4.4.25 can follow this link to my github.
Looks like Asus has made some changes in the mmc management:
Code:
/*
* SD Workaround: downgrade frequency for seldom specific sdcard
*/

Sure, that's the point of me publishing all the sources as detailed as I can - take whatever you can use.
By the way, there is a nice script in the kernel sources that extracts a config from a zImage, it's in scripts/extract-ikconfig and you pass a zImage to it as a parameter. Maybe that's useful for you one day.

Excellent. Note I mod Clemsyn's cpu.sh files so that balanced mode is balanced mode which theorectically means I can now make a 1.3 1.8 and a 1.5 1.8 version of this
Off to do some testing.
Looks like Kernel Installer 1.8 is in the making.
I can confirm that oc data2sd version is working great.

30/05/2013: Initial beta release.
Dual Boot FAQs
Adapted from droidphile's "Dual Boot FAQs" with permission.
1. "Why would I wanna dual-boot?"
A. You don't have to.
Suppose you're more of an aosp rom fan. But misses the HDMI out, bluetooth hands-free and love sammy camera more. Do a minimal installation of sammy rom and boot into it when in need of these features and use aosp rom otherwise.
Or you are a sammy rom fan but love the responsiveness and pure android feel of aosp roms.
And while you can dual boot two sammy or two aosp roms, it doesn't make any sense.
2. "What if I don't need dual booting?"
A. No issues. Kernel won't force to setup 2 roms. You can single boot as before.
3. "Will dual booting change my bootloader or do any dangerous stuff like setting my phone on fire?"
A. NO. Changes are at kernel and ramfs level only. Some space in your internal sd card is used, and also the unused hidden partition mmcblk0p11 is used to store cache of second rom. Dual booting doesn't repartition the filesystem or perform anything scary.
4. "I want to setup dual booting."
A. There are four situations:-
1) Sammy rom now. Want to use aosp as secondary.
2) Sammy rom now. Want to use aosp as primary.
3) Aosp rom now. Want to use sammy as secondary.
4) Aosp rom now. Want to use sammy as primary.
Prerequisites for any setup is
a) Flash latest blackhawk's NEXT kernel
b) Flash new ducati vendor blobs (since 1.8.x)
c) Flash latest PhilZ Touch - blackhawk repack version - recovery
d) Atleast 90% battery left.
e) 2 GB free on internal SD.
f) Some spare time
1) Present sammy, setup aosp as secondary:-
i) Reboot into recovery
ii) Flash blackhawk's NEXT tool, create system.img for CM/CM based ROM and then close it
iii) Reboot into secondary recovery
iv) Flash aosp ROM as 2nd ROM
v) Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again
vi) Flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
2) Present sammy, setup aosp as primary:-
i) Reboot into recovery
ii) Nandroid backup your current sammy ROM
iii) Flash blackhawk's NEXT tool, create system.img for Samsung stock/stock based ROM and then close it
iv) Reboot into secondary recovery
v) Nandroid restore your sammy ROM as 2nd ROM
vi) Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again
vii) Flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
viii) Reboot into primary recovery
ix) Flash aosp ROM as 1st ROM
x) Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again
xi) Flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
3) Present aosp, setup sammy as secondary:-
Same as (1), instead of flashing aosp to second, flash sammy to second.
4) Present aosp, setup sammy as primary:-
Same as (2), instead of flashing aosp to first ROM, flash sammy.
NOTE:
-To dual boot Two Aosp or Two Sammy roms, just follow (1) or (2) (depending on which one of them you want as primary/secondary), just flash Sammy instead of aosp or aosp instead of sammy.
5. "What things should I be taking care off while dealing with dual booting?"
A. - Make sure where you are: in primary or secondary recovery.
6. "How to boot into primary rom?"
A. AROMA based boot menu will help you on every boot.
7. "How to boot into secondary rom?"
A. AROMA based boot menu will help you on every boot.
8. "Is kernel partition shared?"
A. Yes. Same kernel boots both roms.
9. "If I flash another kernel (that doesn't support db) do I lose dual booting?"
A. Yes
10. "I lost dualbooting after flashing another kernel. I didn't do anything to second rom files in sdcard/.secondrom. How can I get db back?"
A. Just flash the latest blackhawk's NEXT kernel, flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
11. "Will there be any performance degradation on the rom used as secondary compared to primary?"
A. NO
12. "Will my phone run slow overall because of db?"
A. NO
13. "How to flash a newer version of 1st rom?"
A. As usual, just flash it from primary recovery. Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again, flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
14. "How to flash newer version of 2nd rom?"
A. Just flash it from secondary recovery. Flash blackhawk's NEXT kernel again, flash new ducati vendor blobs again (since 1.8.x)
15. "Would upgrading 1st or second rom cause other rom to fail on boot?"
A. No. Partitions of other rom are not touched during upgrading.
16. "I miss the recovery I used before, so much.."
A. PhilZ Touch not bad at all.
17. "User apps of 1st rom are automatically available for second rom?"
A. NO. However, if you had backed them up using Titanium Backup or similar apps, just restore apps while on second rom.
18. "I wanna keep separate backup for apps in both the Roms, since I use one Rom for say entertainment and other productivity."
A. Setup different backup directory in Titanium Backup in 1st and 2nd rom.
19. "I don't see STweaks app in second rom."
A. This is blackhawk's NEXT dual boot solution for Galaxy Tab 2, a free implementation of gokhanmoral's Siyah dual boot.
20. "Do I need to anything special before flashing a newer blackhawk's NEXT kernel?"
A. NO. Just flash kernel in primary and secondary recovery. Yes, on both 1st and 2nd ROM. Just flash kernel in recovery - whichever you used to do. Kernel image is copied to the unified kernel partition (since 1.4 version). Flash new ducati vendor blobs (since 1.8.x) on both ROM may be required to ensure vendor blobs match to the kernel
21. "How can I run same STweaks settings of 1st Rom in 2nd Rom?"
A. This is blackhawk's NEXT dual boot solution for Galaxy Tab 2, a free implementation of gokhanmoral's Siyah dual boot.
22. "How do I remove everything related to DB and run single boot again?"
A. In primary recovery, flash blackhawk's NEXT tool and delete 2nd ROM system image. OR delete .secondrom directory in /data/media while on 1st Rom.
23. "If secondrom files are kept in /data/media, will wiping data in recovery erase second rom files?"
A. NO. /data/media is skipped in CWM recovery.
24. "I was using ExFat card on sammy rom without any issues. I have setup dual boot with aosp and now after booting into CM it says microSD card is corrupted."
A. Aosp roms doesn't support ExFat out of the box. The data was corrupted by aosp vold. Even if you boot back to Sammy rom, it still would be corrupted. To recover data, manually mount the card in recovery, copy contents to internal SD and reformat card to a Fat32.
Also try
chkdsk X: /f (where X is the drive letter of microsd), you may be able to copy data.
25. "I read somewhere that both rom data partition use the same space. Doesn't that mean my apps are shared across roms?"
A. NO. It just means they uses same partition. They're still different directories.
1st rom data = /data
2nd rom data = /data/media/.secondrom/data
26. "Will hitting "Boot into Secondary Recovery" in recovery boot menu change my recovery?"
A. NO. It just runs (not flash) an alternate recovery so that you can configure dualboot settings.
27. "How do I backup 1st Rom and 2nd Rom?"
A. To backup 1st Rom, do what you did to backup rom while you were single booting a while ago.
To backup 2nd Rom, use the secondary recovery.
28. "Is there an easier way for dual-boot?"
A. Yes, send your device to me.
29. "DB architecture?"
A. Like you know, every rom has a /data, /system, /cache partition and a kernel to boot.
For primary rom, it's
mmcblk0p10 = /data
mmcblk0p9 = /system
mmcblk0p7 = /cache
And these won't change whether you're single booting or dual booting.
For secondary rom, data and system is stored in internal sd, cache in hidden partition. Note that internal sd in our device is mounted to /data/media.
We have data as a directory, System as an image in data/media/.secondrom. Cache in mmcblk0p11 which is hidden partition and not used otherwise.
- When second rom is booting, second rom data is bind mounted to mmcblk0p10 as /data/
- data/media/.secondrom/system.img partition is mounted as /system.
- mmcblk0p11 is mounted as /cache.
More FAQs will be added and the list will be updated as DB is improved.

Please try increase the CPU voltage by 25mV. In this version, CPU voltage 50mV lower than the previous values. You can use Android Tuner or /system/etc/init.post_boot.sh .
KK, you are a genius! This is working splendidly, I have cyanogen as my primary and blaster as my secondary and they are both workihg smooth for me so far... I have them both running currently at 1200 mhz and seem to be doing fine.. you have really made my day!

That's okay cuz I have No Frills set up for my CPU settings. Of course my public release is still running kkboot 1.6.
After looking at your install script IDK if I would include this in my ROM if/when you allow people to. I'll let them make up their own mind.

Personally, I found that Zap Blaster works well my device (p5113) because of the IR and such.. plus at the time it was overclockable and my HDMI output worked well with it. So, I decided to use it for awhile.. but I could not resist CM because it runs so smooth and I love how clean and reliable it has always been on me for this device as well as other devices I have owned.
Again, I am very happy about this DUAL boot option and I don't think I will change my setup for a time to come... My tablet is perfect now, in my opinion. Thanks again, KK.
The tablet behaviour between this kernel and the samsung original kernel is completely different! Ketut, if samsung would give a crap about their customers, they should buy this kernel from you and push it on all the galaxy tab 2... but that's not going to happen, so actually only the xda members have the chance to see their tablet working as it should, thanks to your work. Lucky us

In plain language
DO NOT STEAL MY SH*T !!
UpInTheAir is NOT responsible, the person you see in the mirror is !!
REQUIREMENTS:
Supported variant only !!
Touch Wiz Android M 6.0.1 ROM or UX leaked firmware (beta support)
Appropriate custom recovery (i.e..TWRP for your variant)
INSTALLATION & UPDATE:
If you have Synapse installed = = you must clear Synapse app data before flash !!
Device Settings: Enable Developer Options > OEM UNLOCK is ENABLED
Boot into custom recovery (volume UP + home + power)
DO NOTHING but flash SkyHigh kernel.zip (ALWAYS flash again AFTER any custom ROM installation, system or data wipe)
After flash == DO NOTHING but REBOOT IMMEDIATELY from TWRP or you will have to re-flash !!
CONVERT EXT4 TO F2FS FS:
If not already, install the latest TWRP for your device variant (ie. 3.0.2-2). This must support F2FS.
Boot into TWRP.
Insert USB-OTG
** ALL DATA WILL BE WIPED FROM INTERNAL STORAGE (restored later)
Backup (copy) all important files (incl. your NANDROID) off device (ie. from internal storage > USB STORAGE). This can take a while. Advanced > File Manager > .....
Home > Backup > Select Storage > USB Storage > OK > "Swipe to Backup" (Only need DATA, but recommend to backup all partitions).
Install > Select Storage > USB Storage > OK.
Select f2fs.zip > "Swipe to confirm flash" (This will WIPE ALL DATA !! & convert DATA & CACHE to F2FS. System is not supported by kernel).
Check the box to remember setting and “Swipe to allow Modifications”.
If you do not have Step #8, then Data was not converted to F2FS.
Mounts > unchecked both Cache & Data. Repeat Step #7 & 8.
Restore > Select Storage > USB Storage > OK > Select TWRP Backup folder > DATA ONLY !! > "Swipe to Restore" (ignore warning about EXT4).
Home > Install > Select Skyhigh_kernel.zip > "Swipe to confirm Flash".
Home > Mount > USB STORAGE > uncheck/unmount (then remove USB-OTG).
Home > Reboot > SYSTEM.
Wait ~2-5 mins for boot.
Once booted, let stabilize for ~5 mins.
You can check Data & Cache F2FS FS status in either /proc/mounts or Synapse app (FS section).
Use a root type explorer (su permission) & navigate to /sdcard, and delete the "0" folder.
Move (copy) your backed up files from Step #4 to internal storage (/sdcard). This can take a while. Maybe one folder at a time is better?
ISSUES ?
If using TWRP MTP mode, deleting some folders/files may crash TWRP and cause corruption. Instead, use a root type file explorer to delete from device.
If you need to wipe data, then use the ext4 or f2fs.zip, otherwise this is not possible with this TWRP !!
Not tested any method with customized ROMs. The ROM installer script may re-format partitions back to EXT4 or not mount correctly causing TWRP crash or corruption. I can only suggest to Flash ROM with EXT4 FS > make a NANDROID on USB-OTG and then follow the F2FS steps above.
CONVERT F2FS TO EXT4 FS:
The Same steps as above, but use the ext4.zip !!
OPTIONAL SYNAPSE INSTALLATION:
After boot:
Wait at least 120 secs to stabilize
Install Synapse app from Google Play and rate it ☆☆☆☆☆ !!
Open Synapse
Tap "Understood"
So changes stick every time you start Synapse == Make any change & 'apply'.
Recommend: Disable KNOX with Synapse
DOWNLOADS:
** I will NEVER support KOREAN (S/K/L) variant. Get over it and flash ARTER kernel instead !! **
Mod Edit: Link removed.
BUGS:
Aroma Installer: 10% of installation will encounter Aroma installer "freeze". It's only the display that freeze, the script still execute in the background. Just wait a minute, then press slightly to the top right 'home' key / top left of the 'back' key . . .

FAQ & HELP
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE:
I might not have your device variant and or able to reproduce your "issue".
Please provide as much information as possible.
Without resetting your device to a stable unmodified baseline, any potential troubleshooting or logs could be meaningless.
So please follow the guidelines set out below. Users can't "read minds".
Without providing important information, we are unable to help YOU.
Search thread, XDA and Google before posting
Provide as much information as possible.
- Device model
- Firmware version
- ROM name / version
- Kernel version
- Modem version
- Bootloader version
- Synapse settings (try default)
- Installed tweaks and apps etc (Xposed ?)
- The exact steps you've taken to try resolve the issue yourself.
Exact steps to reproduce the issue. Provide screenshots if able.
Does it work with older / other versions etc
Reset your device to a stable baseline (ie. stock) with only custom TWRP recovery and kernel (FULL WIPE: system, cache, dalvik-ART)
Possible logs
FAQ & HELP:
CAN I BUILD A KERNEL FOR YOUR __XX DEVICE ?
Sorry. I don't have the spare time for any more variant support.
Additionally, I do not build for any device that I can not compile using SAME source, personally test method or debug. Some device variants can compile with same source.
CAN I INCLUDE SkyHigh KERNEL IN MY ROM
NO == My ramdisk modifications are COPYRIGHT (refer LICENSE in Post #2), and distribution without MY (UpInTheAir) prior written consent is not only in a breach of that license, but also XDA Rule #12)
Although I do appreciate your contribution, if you could please do not include my kernel in any ROM package etc. This policy goes for anyone.
Having my kernel distributed outside my development thread just removes a lot of credit and more importantly, constructive user feedback that could be helpful to my development or user issue.
ALWAYS on DISPLAY (AoD)
I have spent some time to attempt port S7 display drivers to our kernel, but haven't had success as yet with too many errors.
TBH, it's a lot of work for something I'm not really interested in or would use. . . so I don't wish to spend any more of my own time on it, sorry. If someone else does it, GREAT
DO I "NEED" SYNAPSE
THERE IS NO "NEED" !!
It is "recommended", which is OPTIONAL, and not "needed".
It is for ADVANCED or adventurous users who wish more control of their device or use various features I've added.
Using any other optional tweaking or control app may conflict & many features and options won't be available.
WHY WAIT 120 SECS
The kernel and Synapse scripts need time to boot up properly and allow SU permission.
There are scripts / code that have a deliberate delay and must run after Synapse. These are not user optional.
Synapse has a stability check on boot. You may get "synapse boot cancelled".
Thermal throttling will be trying to limit many things, let the device settle
OTHER PARTY CAN NOT HEAR VOICE ON SPEAKER PHONE
It could be a conflict in the system/etc/mixer_*.xml. I don't know for sure, but if I exclude the sound mod, then this "fixes" the problem.
As I cannot reproduce the issue (and the majority), then the audio mod stays.
Unfortunately, making it optional would require to build kernels without and create much more work for many device I don't actually use.
Either live with it, or use another kernel. Sorry.
"NO UCI SUPPORT"
It's a ROM busybox compatibility issue !!

LOADABLE MODULES AREN'T WORKING
Check your /system/lib/modules directory. Are any ____.ko present?
Did you flash a ROM or wipe the system partition at any point? Doing this will remove them !
Re-flash the kernel will install the modules.
If modules aren't installed after flash, then re-flash and manually mount system in recovery first.

BATTERY TIPS (require updating !! )
Try some (or combination) of the CPU MULTICORE features in Synapse:
HMP profile = Default (values are battery orientated)
Power Aware Scheduling (slight performance cost) = Enabled
HMP LITTLE Packing (slight performance cost) = Enabled
PEWQ (power-efficient workqueue) (slight performance cost) = Enabled
Set A57 & A53 Interactive governor profile = Battery
Set Input-Booster for key/touchkey profile = Battery
Multi-tasking: enable UKSM & "low" or "quiet" profile (slight performance/battery cost)
PERFORMANCE TIPS (requires updating !! )
Set A57 & A53 Interactive governor profile = Performance
Set A57 & A53 Interactive governor = Turbo Mode (battery cost)
Set HMP threshold profiles = Stock or Performance
Once in a while:
Optimize Databases
FSTrim
RANDOM REBOOT
Don't UV or UC CPU or GPU
Use SkyHigh defaults
Use a stock UNMODIFIED ROM for your device variant
No tweaks, Xposed or other CPU control apps installed

POOR CPU/GPU BENCHMARK or GRAPHICS PERFORMANCE
Disable any CPU MULTICORE options in Synapse
Disable any Battery profiles in Synapse. Set to default or Performance.
Allow the device to cool. Repetitive testing will heat the device hardware and invoke thermal throttling and lead to decreased benchmark.
HIGH CPU/GPU OC == excessive heat == thermal throttling == reduced clock frequency == DECREASE PERFORMANCE
DYNAMIC MANAGEMENT OF DIRTY PAGE WRITEBACKS
by Christopher83
This feature allows to have two different intervals for dirty page writebacks and to dynamically manage them when the system has been resumed (it's active) or when has been suspended.
Three new procfs parameters are exposed inside /proc/sys/vm path:
dynamic_dirty_writeback is the activation status of this feature, set 1 to enable it, set 0 to disable it and use the standard behaviour
dirty_writeback_active_centisecs is the interval for the dirty page writebacks when the system is active (screen on)
dirty_writeback_suspend_centisecs is the interval for the dirty page writebacks when the system is suspended (screen off)
This feature is in part inspired on Francisco Franco's PATCH
TCP/IP NETWORK SECURITY

Hardening the TCP/IP stack to SYN attack
Bump up tw_buckets in case we get DoS'd
Ignore pings
Don't cache connection metrics from previous connection
Don't pass traffic between networks or act as a router
Enable spoofing protection (turn on reverse packet filtering)
Don't accept source routing
Don't accept redirects

CHROMECAST - STREAMING PROBLEMS
Lock screen MUST be enabled (simple screen lock swipe) I don't know why but it breaks the chromecast app's ability to resume smoothly if switched off
Synapse > Network > DTIM (both screen ON & OFF) = 1
Synapse > Network > WIFI Power Mode (screen OFF) = FAST
@UpInTheAir needed to create these threads to compile them for Synapse. He contacted me to close these as soon as he made them until he is ready with the finished product. Have patience.
Also I would like to apologize to UITA as the last ban may have been due to a system glitch where the signature was restored upon return, so was unjust. I have seen these glitches before and better communication might have prevented the error. We will do better going forward!
SkyHigh KERNEL REBORN - v5.6 released !!
SkyHigh KERNEL REBORN - v5.6 released !!
Hi fellow members.
Please find my latest release for SkyHigh kernel. There are many many changes, both visually (more / improved features) and a upgraded engine (better performance & efficiency) since I last publicly released. Far too many to talk about. . . .
And no - it DOES NOT fix call audio issue with leaked UX ROM. I believe it to be a ROM issue n!
Please note that although I have taken as much care in building and testing by my friends and I, the kernel may still not perform as hoped for you. Could be due to various factors including (but limited to):
hardware quality
firmware installed (incompatibility)
user habit (how you use the device)
apps & mods installed, customization's (conflicts)
user kernel settings (read them carefully - if in doubt == defaults)
As noted in Post #3, I may not have your device variant and not be always able to help either. In the end, sometimes SkyHigh is just not meant for you . . . .
If you have issues = = READ & FOLLOW ALL Posts #1-3
READ & FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION INSTALLATIONS EXACTLY (or else device will not boot)
Also please note (as per OP) the support for UX based ROMS is still in beta. I have personally tested very briefly, and also some of my friends (not all variant)
Enjoy
UITA

BUG Report Update: UX firmware Bluelight Filter
The blue-light issue is in kernel source.
Compiled & flash SkyHigh + stock ramdisk + stock dt.img == no blue-light
Compiled & flash SkyHigh + stock ramdisk (with permission edits) + stock dt.img == no blue-light
Compiled & flash SkyHigh + UX ramdisk + stock dt.img == no blue-light
Compiled & flash SkyHigh + UX ramdisk + UX dt.img == no blue-light
Which all points to the source I’m using . . . and nothing I can do about it. That's leaked firmware and no proper source, what else to expect. . . .

It turns out to be the google DNS causing the problem. I forgot L Speed was applying the google dns as well. Sorry for being wasting your time. Thanks for the support ! the kernel is smooth and the battery last longer. I can send you the latest boot.img if you still want it.

When in Aroma, please DELETE all that interfering BS init.d 'tweaks' that are not optimised for our device. Those that come with SkyHigh are !!
Don't worry about boot.img thanks.

I see your posts in various development threads. . .
From your history, seems you're never happy with anything.. .
THREE options:
1. Read and follow what's requested of YOU top of Post #3.
2. Use a different kernel
3. Use stock
Anyone using a Grace UX rom with this kernel and if so can you link me one that's working? Been wanting to try it out.

I don't believe the T/W8 call audio issue has been solved yet for all UX beta ROMs
