Here is where I'll post my CM10 builds.
qwerty was the name I gave to the kernel I used to post here before I started to post entire ROM builds.
This is based on the amazing dhiru1602's work, big thanks to him.
Dowloads:
Google Drive
You can't resume downloads with GDrive. If you prefer other hosting websites, you can use the direct link of my builds to remotely upload them somewhere else. Dev-Host allows you to do that and allows you to resume downloads. Feel free to mirror my files.

Misc changes/instruction to build this ROM. The patches not available on Github are here.
Please, read carefully the whole post.
There are two different versions of the ROM. One is using the kernel 3.0, the other the kernel 2.6.35. Read the known bugs and flash the one you prefer.
I did some changes to this CM-10, I updated it and added some extra features such as inbuilt SD swap (Settings > Storage > Use external storage), possibility to show the navbar without rebooting (System > Power menu > navbar and enable it from the power menu. It doesn't work perfectly, keyboards and notification panel can go behind it) possibility to limit the number of background apps and other handy options.
I also backported some performance patches and misc fixes from CM-10.1 and some apps: Trebuchet, Apollo, Gallery (camera), Clock, CM File Manager and Superuser.

Known bugs:
Backlight issues for some users: the screen backlight will automatically turn on when it's supposed to stay off.
Audio/video sync issues while recording videos at 720p, along with frames and fps drops.
Rare reboots. If they happen, post the content of /proc/last_kmsg.
CyanogenMod 10 - kernel 2.6.35
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Known bugs:
Missing HW composer.
WiFi doesn't work perfectly. Some users report continuous disconnections or problems connecting to netowroks. Try to use a static IP in case you have problems.
Native USB tethering doesn't work. Use a third party app (tested: android-wired-tether).
The inbuilt Wi-Fi hotspot can be used only once, sometimes more, and after that a reboot is required to use it again. You can though use this modified version of android-wifi-tether, reboots are not required.
HD video playback suffer low framerate issues.
The 720p preview framerate is intentionally limited, especially while recording. The recorded video is (almost) fine.
There are sometimes lags in the preview while video calling with the front facing camera
Poor bluetooth headset sound quality. (I don't own a bluetooth headset, hence it's very hard for me to find the problem) - flash libaudio-BT-NR-fix.zip.
Release changes:
Code:
Look for the name of the zip in this thread to find its changes. This is no more updated.
...
20130425: Camera HAL updates. Removed background apps limit. Use the modified dev settings to choose the number of background apps.
20130416: Camera HAL: experimental changes
20130407: Partially working WiFi tethering (perfect with [I]android-wifi-tether[/I])
20130402: Several kernel changes, UMS regression fixed
20130329: Video pillarbox. Regression: UMS requires adb
20130326: Optimized build
20130320: SSID fetch fixed
20130319: Better wpa_supplicant support: WiFi scan and disconnecting bug fixed. Missing WiFi signal intensity fixed.

Stock ROM / CM7 / CM9 / CM10 Alpha3 (or older):
dhiru1602 said:
IMPORTANT! READ BEFORE FLASHING THIS RELEASE!
This ROM will wipe data due to different partitioning. The device would reboot while flashing and resume again.
Once on this ROM, the most effective way of going back to any other ROM would be to repartition from Odin.
While converting the filesystem, your efs that has your IMEI is backed up to /emmc/backup/efs. Keep a backup on your PC just in case.
Incase if you don't get a network signal, check if your IMEI and Baseband are proper. If not, go back to stock and try again.
Do NOT use Odin to flash Modems. Due to different partitions, Odin will screw up your existing MTD setup.

Stock ROMs only: Make sure you have CWM. Flash a custom kernel otherwise
Download the zip of the ROM and save it into the internal SD or the external one (*)
Reboot to recovery
Flash the downloaded zip
optional: Flash mobiledata_off.zip if you want mobile data off during the first setup
optional: Flash Google Apps (for Android 4.1.2, many things will break otherwise)
Reboot
(*) While flashing, the device will reboot and you'll see a different recovery after that.
If the zip is inside the internal SD, the flash will re-start automatically after the reboot.
If the zip is inside the external SD, you have to re-start the flash manually re-flashing the zip. If you don't do that, only recovery will work until you flash the zip.
CyanogenMod 10:
Download the zip of the ROM and save it into the external SD or the internal memory
Reboot to recovery
Flash the downloaded zip
optional: Flash Google Apps (if you have already flashed them once, you can skip this step)
Reboot
Data wipes are mandatory only if you are not using CM10, it's not required otherwise.
It doesn't matter if you are going to flash the version with the 3.0 kernel and you are using the other, it should work.
CyanogenMod 10.1/10.2:
Download the zip of the ROM and save it into the external SD or the internal memory
Reboot to recovery
Flash the downloaded zip
optional: Flash Google Apps
optional: Flash mobiledata_off.zip if you want mobile data off during the first setup
Wipe data/factory reset
Reboot
Downgrades are probably not expected, that's why you need to do a data wipe.
Important note:
The modem is always replaced with XXLE4 modem when this ROM is flashed over a stock ROM, CM9 or CM10 Alpha 3 (or older).
You can easly replace it. Take modem.bin from the tar of a stock ROM, place it in /radio overwriting the existing one and reboot. This is required only once, modem.bin is never replaced while updating the ROM. I9003L must do this, I9003 users can use the included modem, but it's better to use the modem made for your region.

The latest versions of Instagram are not working due to a problem with related to the GPU binary blob. Instagram 3.4.0 is the latest working version. Probably every device using the same binary blob is affected (Optimus Black for example). You can download a modified version from here that will allow you to login.
The latest versions of Skype do not work properly, the preview is stretched and wrongly rotated. Use Skype 2.9.0.315 or see this post.
LEDs are not supposed to blink when a new notifcation arrives. They'll light up, but they won't blink. Making them blink would prevent the device from entering deep sleep.
(3.0 kernel) Once the battery is fully charged, it will start discharging and it won't be recharged automatically if at least 90 minutes have passed. You can forcefully charge it by unpluggin and re-pluggin the cable. This is an intended behaviour, charging the battery continuosly to keep it at 100% can shortnmyself toer its life.
This ROM allows you to force two apps to stay in memory. See this post for more info.
I made possible to toggle the navbar state directly from the powermenu modifying the existing expanded desktop feature, however it's not working perfectly. The navbar can go over the notification panel and the keyboard while in landscape. However it works as expected if you enable the navbar by setting qemu.hw.mainkeys or modding framework-res.apk. I have no intention to "fix" this as I can't see the utility of the navbar on our device.
(3.0 kernel) For some reason when the screen is turned off during a call by the proximity sensor, if enough time has passed it won't be turned on automatically. You can wake the screen immediately by pressing the home button or the power button or you can increase the backlight timeout from the settings. That will make the proximity sensor work for longer (I'm not sure, but I think the proximity sensor stops working exactly after this timer has expired). this problem is maybe solved.
FM radio is available through third party apps, such as Spirit FM
"Native" 3G video calls are not supported and most likely never will, flash a stock ROM if you need them. GTalk, Skype and all the other apps works though.
(3.0 kernel) if you lost your IMEI, WiFi will probably not work. See this for more info and instructions to fix the problem. No more required.
(3.0 kernel) part of the RAM is reserved. You'll see that we have 442MB 454MB of RAM, that's fine, the missing RAM is not really lost, it's still used.
If the keyboard keeps crashing, you probably flash the wrong gapps.
The magnetic sensor sometimes reports wrong values. When it happens, the field intensity is very high. This was observed with the 3.0 kernel, but probably the same thing happens with a 2.6.35 kernel.
(3.0 kernel) my SD card (it's probably a cheap SD card) is not working properly and I often have corrupted files. It worked fine with the kernel 2.6.35, so if you often have corrupted files, try a different SD card or use the old kernel.
Weird activity in standby? Read this.
(3.0 kernel) 1.2GHz is not stable on every device. I had to disable SmartReflex because it was causing crashes on my device. This means that the voltage of the OPP5 is locked the value I chose is not universally good. I'd prefer not to increase it more, if you have too many reboots, don't overclock. WARNING: don't tick "Set on boot" unless you are sure your device can handle OC. f you are stuck in a bootloop, flash disable_opp5.zip.
In case the max frequency is 1.1GHz, then SmartReflex is enabled and the option in DeviceParts has no effect.
If you find a bug not listed, please report.
Post as many informations as possible, ways to reproduce it and logs.
You can easily grab (almost) all the logs I need by pressing vol down, vol up and power at the same time ("recent" builds only). LEDs will blink and /storage/sdcard0/logs_qwerty/log_DATE.txt will be created. In case the memory is not ready, you'll find the files in /data/logs_qwerty/log_DATE.txt.
The standalone kernel is no more mantained. Flash the ROM instead.

Kernel - 2.6.35
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After months of use, I decided to publicly release my kernel.
This is for CyanogenMod 10 Alpha 4.
It's based on the GB kernel sources released by Samsung (GT-I9003_GB_Opensource_Update2.zip), modified (mostly by dhiru1602) to work with CyanogenMod.
Because of my lack of fantasy I named it "qwerty". It sucks, but at least it's easy to remember.
Main features:
XDA_Bam's code and fixes:
◦ 5 OPPs
◦ Booting at stock speed (1000MHz)
◦ Slight undervolt (3%) on all OPPs
◦ Home button double presses fix
◦ Lowered processor transition latency
◦ Stable Bluetooth connections
Modified light sensor driver: [1]
◦ Disabled hardcoded filter. CyanogenMod has its own filters, enable it from the settings.
◦ Dynamic polling interval
◦ Code cleanup
Modified battery driver [2]
CPU Governors:
◦ Ondemand (default)
◦ SmartassV2
◦ Conservative
◦ Performance
I/O schedulers:
◦ Deadline (default)
◦ Noop
◦ CFQ
◦ SIO
Toggable FSync
Fixed always ON LEDs bug when used for notifications only
VPN networks support (not tested)
Slightly increased touchkeys sensitivity (from 45 to 35)
Other minor changes and optimizations

UPDATE: USB composite is still a bit messed up. Windows can't recognize the phone when RNDIS (USB tethering) is enabled (working fine with Linux).
If you need RNDIS, flash this kernel release or the previous one.

Notes:
[1] I made it compatible with the prebuilt libsensor included in CyanogenMod, but I'm using my own libsensor and maybe I didn't test this kernel with the stock one for long enough. I hence added my libsensor, just in case. If you want to restore the original libsensor, simply remove /system/lib/hw/sensors.latona.so.
[2] You can modify "samsung-battery" wakelock length through DeviceParts. By default it behaves like the original module. If you see "Android System" or anything else eating your battery with no reasons, increase the delay or restore the default one.
[3] DeviceParts.apk (System Settings > Advanced) is included because of some additional settings useful when this kernel is used. I'm not a Java dev, so it's probably not perfect, but it works quite well. I took pieces of code from other devices (mostly Crespo, Aries and S2). The source code is available, suggestions are more than welcome.
[4] Power HAL will make the CPU jump to a certain frequency (I set 800MHz) whenever Android requires it (when the screen is touched for example). Power HAL will also limit the max freq to 800MHz (my choice, not too fast, not too slow) when the screen is off. You can change the boosting freq from my custom DeviceParts. CPU frequencies changes (See XDA_Bam's thread for more info about variable overclocking) are not expected. If you don't like it, simply remove /system/lib/hw/power.latona.so. Few more lines about power HAL here.
[5] hostap and tiap_drv.ko make WiFi tethering possible using this modified version of android-wifi-tether.
Special thanks to dhiru1602 and XDA_Bam for their awesome work.
Wow. I'll flash it for sure.
Thanks for sharing.
Update:
Flashed and it works just fine. Just changed max freq to 1200.
Deviceparts looks very professional as well.
Hats off to u buddy. Also kernel name is really good buddy. Dont worry about that
Suggestion : Can u add SIO schedular? For me smartassv2 (thanks for adding it) with sio works really well.
Request : Sorry but I am not exactly getting power HAL description. Can u please explain me a little bit.

As you may know, what a CPU governor does is to decide when the current frequency needs to be changes and what's the target frequency. These decisions mostly depend on the current CPU load: high load -> high freq.
What power HAL does is to require a high CPU frequency regardless the load. This mostly happen on user interactions (ie: the screen is touched)
Its aim is to provide a smoother experience, because basically it's trying to predict high CPU loads. The downside is that sometimes the CPU is boosted for no reasons.
For example if you touch the screen to scroll a page, when the scrolling starts the CPU is already at a high freq and there won't be probably initial lags. If you tap the screen, just for the sake of it, the CPU will be boosted for no reasons (by default a CPU boost will last 500ms).
I think it's part of the project butter.
The only governor with a boostpulse interface between those included is ondemand. The other governors included most likely will never have a boostpulse interface.
Try to use ondemand with and without power HAL. You can "see" the difference with CPU Spy. 800MHz will be used a lot when power HAL is present (you can change the boosting freq from the advanced settings).
By the way I updated ondemand, it's faster than in the original kernel.

Try to use Deadline for a while. I tweaked it to better perform on flash devices. Anyway I don't think that changing I/O scheduler will make a tangible difference.

All our kernels based on the sources released by Samsung use a prebuilt module for WiFi. Dhiru tried to use the opensource driver, but it didn't work.
This prebuilt module, taken from our stock ROMs, requires a prebuilt and modified wpa_supplicant which is not completely compatible with Android 4.0+ (Samsung didn't give us the changes required to make the opensource one work). To make things worse there's dhcpcd, we have to use an old version because of the old wpa_supplicant.
In other words: it sucks.
With some access point there are no issues, with others WiFi works, but not so well and with some others nothing works.
EDIT:
Now that I think of that, there are maybe some differences when this kernel is used. I took the prebuilt module from XXLE4 instead of taking it from EDIT2: XXKPM
The warning message I get the first time I turn WiFi (maybe it happens even with the other module, I didn't try it) on suggests me that something was changed in XXLE4, but I don't know if this is a good thing or not.

I'm starting to think the problem is CWM. For now only you and spacebar2011 had issues. I will PM you something when I'll have some free time to find the problem. If nothing works, I'll just give you the tars to flash the kernel with ODIN as I did with my signal fix kernel.
@Hetalk
Thanks for trying to help, but he is a peculiar situation. The problem is not the updated blob or a wrong flash, he (and spacebar2011) tried to flash my signal fix kernel several times over a clean CM10 with no success.

Dunno, battery life had never been exceptional for me. If you use your phone a lot, any kernel will give you a bad battery life. You can see differences only if you keep your phone most of the time in idle, with mobile data disabled.

Thanks for ur simplified explaination This means in order to bring smoothness ondemand will keep most of the time freq at 800 mhz (as per ur settings). But definitely its going to affect battery life as just for a simple touch freq will raise to 800 mhz directly. Anyway overall it depends on user who want battery life or smoothness
I have used ur fixed signal kernel for longer time. That kernel really works very well when we use phone (even with 2g net). But surprisingly in deep sleep mode (means with gsm network on on and 2g net off) then there is very heavy battery drain For me its 25% battery drain in 9hr deep sleep mode. But if we keep our phone phone offline in deep sleep mode then it will drain battery just 4% in 9hr. Strange...!!!
I will monitor tonight also with that signal fix kernel. and final tomorrow I will flash this kernel on clean cm10a4 so that I can compare both ur kernels
EDIT : My doubt was right. Your previous signal fix kernel works really good. Yesterday night tested and I found that lost 3% battery in 8 hrs standby. Means my previous 25% battery loss was not a correct observation. Anyway now I will flash this kernel and tell u the results
Re: [KERNEL][CM10] qwerty [08/02/13]
Well, its obvious that keeping a continuous connection with the network costs battery and that when we are connected with mobile network it will eventually change between signal modes (2g, HSDPA, edge, etc) and that also costs battery.
That's why mobile network use to consume more battery than WiFi or offline.

INSTALLATION
1. Install zip from Recovery
2. Reboot!
For installation, it seems a lot of people have finicky phones when it comes to flashing stuff with aroma.
If the installer gets stuck at 0% then you need to reboot to bootloader and do fastboot erase cache
If the installer reboots at 10%, you need to do a nandroid backup of /system partition and restore it. I think a dirty flash would also work.
After you install it, if you get a black screen or stuck at the HTC logo, no need to worry. Just hold down the power button untill the capacitive buttons start flashing and the phone restarts. The kernel installed correctly.

NOTES
Kernel Tuner/TricksterMod/Venom Tweaks, etc
You don't need these apps because the Bulletproof installer sets everything up automatically, but if you want to check or change settings, you can use these apps. Just be aware that some of them (e.g. Kernel Tuner) are set by default to apply settings on boot, which can interfere with the settings you chose in the Bulletproof installer.
init.d script template
The installer automatically adds an init.d script template so you can apply settings automatically at boot. It is not needed and does nothing by default, but you can use it to fine tune some settings if you like.
The script is named /etc/init.d/99bulletproof. This is where you would set the button_timeout if you don't like the default settings. There are other example settings in the file related to sweep2wake, doubletap2wake, logo2wake, pocket detection, logo2menu, button light notification, USB fastcharge, HTC color enhancement
To make settings apply automatically at boot, remove the # in front of the desired setting and change the setting, eg: removing the # in front of echo 0 > /sys/android_touch/button_timeout would disable that setting
If you edit the file, make sure it has execute permissions, or it won't apply. You can do this with ES File Explorer or other similar apps
Sweep2Wake
Sweep2wake (S2W) allows you to wake up your device by swiping your finger across the capacitive buttons from left to right. Swiping from right to left will put it back to sleep (sweep2sleep). The options are: sweep2wake/sweep2sleep, sweep2sleep only, and disabled. If you use apps such as Kernel Tuner, the sweep2sleep only option can be selected by choosing "On with backlight".
/sys/android_touch/sweep2wake
0=disabled
1=enable sweep2wake + sweep2sleep
2=enable sweep2sleep only
Sweep2wake button timeout
In earlier versions, sweeping to sleep brought you back to the homescreen. Starting in version 4.3, if you swipe fast enough, it will not register a home button press in the sweep, and your last app will be there when you unlock the phone again. Depending on how quick your fingers are, double tapping home could put the phone to sleep instead of opening recent apps. I've made the default button_timeout such that it is almost impossible for this to happen in normal use (button_timeout = 6). If you find that it happens too often, you can set button_timeout to a lower number, or disable it completely by setting it to 0.
/sys/android_touch/button_timeout
Accepted values are 0 to 15. 0 disables button timeout
• Higher values make it more likely that your last app will be open after you sweep to sleep, but there is a higher risk of accidentally putting the device to sleep when double tapping home.
• Lower values make it less likely that your last app will be open after you sweep to sleep, but reduces the chance of a double tap of home being mistaken for a sweep2sleep.
• Setting button_timeout to 0 disables this feature completely
The setting can be changed after installation in /etc/init.d/99bulletproof
DoubleTap2Wake
DoubleTap2Wake (DT2W) allows you to wake the device by double tapping in the bottom inch or so of the screen, above the capacitive buttons.
/sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake
0=disabled
1=enable doubletap2wake
Logo2Wake
Logo2Wake (L2W) allows you to sleep or wake the device by long pressing the HTC logo. You have to press just slightly above the HTC logo. The screen will automatically turn on or off with a long press.
/sys/android_touch/logo2wake
0=disabled
1=enable logo2wake
Pocket Detection
Pocket detection protects against accidental wakes while S2W, DT2W or L2W are enabled and the phone is in your pocket. Pocket detection uses the proximity sensor. A few people have a problem with their proximity sensor that makes DT2W not work, so I've made an option to disable pocket detection.
/sys/android_touch/pocket_detect
0=disabled
1=enable pocket detection
Logo2Menu
Enabling Logot2Menu (L2M) allows you to use the HTC logo as a menu button. You must press just slightly above the HTC logo.
/sys/android_touch/logo2menu
0=disabled
1=enable logo2menu
Button Light Notification
With Button Light Notification (BLN), the capacitive buttons will blink on and off when you have a new notification. As soon as the screen comes on, BLN is canceled and the lights will no longer blink until you have another notification. Please note that if you have your screen set to turn on when a message arrives, you will not see the buttons blinking because once the screen comes on, the button light notification is canceled.
/sys/class/leds/button-backlight/blink_buttons
0 = disabled
1 = BLN enabled
CPU voltages
CPU voltages are fully customisable with apps such Kernel Tuner or Trickster Mod. Be careful, lowering voltages can cause instability. Generally, having reboots while the phone is asleep is a sign that your minimum voltage is too low. The minimum voltage allowed is 700mV.
Be careful with undervolting. If you have bluetooth or sound issues, try increasing the minimum voltage.
Camera
On 4.2.2 ROMs, using HDR mode in low light with automatic flash may freeze the camera app.
NTFS support
This is for anyone who wants to use OTG to connect a USB stick or portable harddrive formatted with Microsoft's NTFS filesystem. You will need Stickmount or a similar app, HTC Sense does not automatically detect NTFS filesystem.
Paid Apps
All the cryptographic modules load properly, so you shouldn't have an issues with paid apps.
Other stuff
This kernel supports many game pads and controllers, including PS3 controllers and some X-Box controllers. It has full OTG support. A refresh rate of 60Hz for HDMI output allows you to play games on the big screen without choppiness. CIFS support is built into the kernel. Faux sound control is also supported.

You cannot "port" a kernel.
HTC have to release source code for 1.29 in order for devs to create custom ones.

The point of his bulletproof kernels is to be stockish with some improvements. Besides since its not over clocked disabling perflock is pretty much useless
There's a kernel with perflock disabled already if you want one

why is usless without overclocking? without preflock you can downclock the frequency and set profiles - both is very usefull
I disabled perflock, but still no overclocking or anything like that.
Let me know if this works.

6. New ktoonservativeq parameter named "cpu_load_adder_at_max_gpu"!!!!!!!!!!!! This is an awesome parameter you can use to boost your CPU while the GPU is at max level. Example: if you set cpu_load_adder_at_max_gpu = 30 and while playing a game and your GPU is at max Mhz, the CPU load is only 22%, this parameter will add the 30 thus making the CPU load a 52% which will bring up the Mhz and more cores according to your settings.

Change Log 05.05.2014
1. Mostly a TWRP update on todays release
2. Modified TWRP to do ext4 or F2FS on the fly based on "Settings" screen to reduce problems, no more need for flashing format zips like before, and no more rebooting in and out of recovery.
3. When you change the "Settings" you will notice that the name at the top will change according to your settings. EXT4 for ext4 formatting, F2FS for F2FS on data and cache, and F2FS+S for data, cache, and system.
4. Under "Settings" screen in TWRP you will see a new option called "Force data and cache wipe functions to use F2FS". When checked it will force wipes on the cache and data partitions to format it F2FS, unchecked forces to ext4.
5. Under "Settings" screen in TWRP you will see a new option called "Include system partition." When checked it will force wipes on system partitions to format it F2FS, unchecked forces to ext4.
6. KTweaker: New option under "Tools" screen called "Get Partition info" so you can check the format of the 3 partitions.
7. Since I made the new TWRP, I modified the ramdisk back to my original testing code to load the partitions based on there format. Since it does this, you will have to use KTweaker now to verify if you did indeed format everything properly using the new option from #6 above.
8. Link to newest TWRP-ALL-IN-1: http://goo.gl/xl5VwI
9. Link to newest F2FS folder (updated instructions in the folder, moved all the old stuff to the "OLD WAY" folder): http://goo.gl/HLz4al
Change Log 04.28.2014
1. Linux 3.4.88
2. Now compiling with Linaro 4.9.1 a-15 optimized from @Christopher83
3. Updated kernel flash routine to detect F2FS partitions and include the appropriate fstab so it works with /data and /cache or /data and /cache and /system
4. Updated KT-TWRP.F2FS and KT-TWRP.EXT4 to have one common recovery binary, during flash uses same algorythm as kernel flash zip to use the proper fstab.
5. KTweaker 7.0
6. Under "Tools" screen added "F2FS: Convert ROM ZIP option". To use it, click that option, it opens a KT File Explorer, navigate to the folder where your zip files is, click the ROM zip file that needs converting and it will create a second file with the same exact name except adds a -F2FS to the end. A little hint, instead of using the back button once you are done converting, press the menu button and select close and KTweaker will remember that folder and take you right back the next time you go back in. It takes around 1:45 to do it my phone running ktoonsified v6, other profiles may take longer and if you are converting from external SD it may take longer depending on the quality of your SD.
7. TWRP for normal EXT4 format link is here http://goo.gl/jwMSEn
8. TWRP for F2FS format link is here http://goo.gl/Zw1akJ

7. KTweaker: Added new sub screen when picking ktoonservativeq "Gov Adjustments" screen to give you the choice to show "All Parameters", "ONLY Screen ON parameters", "ONLY Screen OFF parameters" to make it easier to see only the parameters you want to see. Thanks @elesbb for the idea
8. Linux 3.4.87.
9. I was unable to reproduce the inability to download scripts, but I made a change and 2 people have told me it doesnt do that anymore with 6.9 so I think I got it fixed.
10. Updated TWRP for normal EXT4 format with 20 upstream updates and updated curtain image thanks to @9Lukas5, link is here http://goo.gl/jwMSEn
11. Updated TWRP for normal F2FS format with 20 upstream updates and updated curtain image thanks to @9Lukas5, link is here http://goo.gl/Zw1akJ
Change Log 04.17.2014
1. Ktoonsez CRAZY BIRTHDAY EDITION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2. KTweaker 6.8
3. Made Fast Charge Widget size based on left side alignment so people that want a 1x1 widget of FC can do that (by request from someone)
4. 20+ new parameteres for Ktoonservativeq. I went a little crazy with it but you are going to love it!!!!!!!!!!!
5. WARNING!!!!!!!!!!! All the rest of these are going to require you to check and maybe set some of your ktoonservativeq governor settings from scratch!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I did the best I can at converting them to the new names but can account for every old version of the Profile files. So write down your settings before flashing so you can manually set them up with the new names.
6. Ktoonservativeq: Renamed all up_threshold and down_threshold items to have a version for screen on and off. So all 8 items turned into 16 items no so you have total control for screen on and seperate control for screen off.
7. Ktoonservativeq: Changed all parameters that said hotplugging into hotplug to shorten the names.
8. Ktoonservativeq: Rename all the block parameters to more commonized names. New item names are as follows. block_cycles_online = blocking cycles before letting a CPU come online. block_cycles_offline = blocking cycles before letting a CPU go offline. block_cycles_raise = blocking cycles before letting the CPU raise the Mhz.
9. Ktoonservativeq: All of the block parameters from item 5 have a screen on and scree off option.
10. Ktoonservativeq: Renamed freq_step to have a screen on and off option plus seperate values for the raise and lowering of the CPU Mhz.
11. Ktoonservativeq: lockout_2nd_core_hotplug, lockout_3rd_core_hotplug and lockout_4th_core_hotplug all have a screen on and screen off option.
12. Ktoonservativeq: Renamed sync_extra_cores parameter to have screen on and off options
13. Ktoonservativeq: Renamed boost_2nd_core_on_button, boost_3rd_core_on_button and boost_4th_core_on_button to have screen on and off options.
14. KTweaker Shop: Now when you select Profiles or Scripts, it will come up with a sub screen that lets you choose from All Profiles/Scripts, ONLY Conservative Profiles/Scripts, ONLY Balanced Profiles/Scripts, or ONLY Performance Profiles/Scripts. Thanks to @CamFlawless for creating the type list for me.
15. Added Ktoonsified v6 to KTweaker Shop.
16. Update the server for KTweaker Shop to support the 3 types of profiles now.
17. Update a bunch of profiles to the server for KTweaker Shop, BIG thanks to @LuigiBull23 for helping me update all the files for the server.
18. LED: Boost cores on LED calls to help incoming calls and unplug-plug charger turn screen on quicker.
19. Make call_in_progress a global variable so we have access to its status in more places. Use the call_in_progress in ktoonservativeq to block super_conservative so phone calls r smoother
20. Remove loki on PC side and use loki scripting in flash zip
21. F2FS: add support for F2FS so people that want to run it can. THIS ONLY WORKS TO AOSP4.4 SO FAR!!!!!!!!! All kernels will come with standard ext4 as default, people that want F2FS will have to do the instructions from Post #3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
22. F2FS: See Post #3 for a download link and a set of instructions to move convert to F2FS.
23. Post #3 updated with my latest settings and fixed the screen names for each setting.
24. Flashable kernel zip now do the loki'ing when it is needed for ATT and VZW and also determine your file system to know whether to flash F2FS or ext4 ramdisk.
25. For those that use TWRP and want to try mine, you can download it here (Normal ext4 version, not for people that format to F2FS): http://goo.gl/jwMSEn. It seems to have gotten rid of the boot hang that some people get with official 2.7.0.1.

Change Log 03.12.2014
1. Improved "on a phone call" code to make sure it is isnt executing the screen wake code while screen is off and you are on a call.
2. Increased speed for wake up on the screen wake functions, sensor wake functions wake a little quicker too but will always be limited by the 1 second timer.
3. Finally found a better spot to trigger and make the screen turn on way quicker when an incoming call is coming in.
4. KTweaker version 6.6.
5. NEW item under "Tools" screen called "Charging Current". You can click on the item and it will update the field with the current mA it is charging at.
6. NEW item under "Fast Charge" called "MTP while fast charging". Enabled will keep MTP on so you can still access the phone, disabled will disable MTP and you will not be able to access it, just simply charges. To take effect this option requires the cable to be unplugged and re-plugged in.
7. NEW item under "Fast Charge" called "Screen ON charging limit". BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THIS ITEM!!!!!!! When enabled it will keep the Samsung limit they imposed of 1200 mA while charging and the screen is on, if it is disabled it will allow you to charge at the full 1900 mA or whatever custom mA you have set for A/C. To take effect this option requires the cable to be unplugged and re-plugged in.
Change Log 03.10.2014
1. Improved Sweep 2 wake recognition.
2. Ignore double tap if more than 1 finger is used.
3. New option for "Hold Wake Lock for wake" called "Enabled ONLY while charging" so you can choose to only hold wake lock during charging.
4. Added wake lock montitor so wake locks can be kicked back on if they are killed prematurely.
5. New "Prox value when clear" added so you can specify the prox value to allow the screen wakes to still work when your prox is not functioning properly/dirty.
6. New item under "Tools" called "Prox Sensor Checker". Click it start/stop the monitor timer. Use this to see what you 100% clear prox value is, then add 20 to that number and use it for the "Prox value when clear" value mention in #5 above.
7. LEDs: Added some code that was needed on the TW version to catch all the notification scenerios.
8. Fix the issue where touch screen would become unresponsive on TW ROMs.
9. Thats all I can remember, ENJOY!!!!!
Change Log 03.06.2014
1. NEW!!!!!!! LED: 3 New options in KTweaker to select from, "Disable LED Start Hour", "Disable LED Stop Hour", "Disable LED Always". Start and Stop value are in 24 hour military time.
2. NEW!!!!!!! "Screen Wake Options" of: Sweep 2 Wake, Sweep 2 Wake ONLY on Charger, Double Tap 2 Wake, Double Tap 2 Wake ONLY on Charger, Both, Both ONLY on Charger.
3. Screen Wake Options: For Sweep 2 Wake, sweep the screen from left to right or right to left to turn on the screen.
4. Screen Wake Options: For Double Tap 2 Wake, double tap the screen if the bottom left corner to turn on the screen.
5. NEW!!!!!!! "Sensor Wake Options" of: Wave 2 Wake, Wave 2 Wake ONLY on Charger, Pocket 2 Wake, Pocket 2 Wake ONLY on Charger, Both, Both ONLY on Charger.
6. Sensor Wake Options: For Wave 2 Wake, hold your hand in from of the proximity sensor for about 1/2 second and then wave it back and forth to turn on the screen.
7. Sensor Wake Options: For Pocket 2 Wake, simply have the phone in your pocket for at least 10 seconds, take it out and the screen turns on.
8. NEW!!!!!!! "Hold Wake Lock for Wake" of: Check them out, there is freaking 18 of them, lol. By using any of these methods you will guarantee that the wake methods will work, without them its a crap shoot. My favorite is "Enabled ALWAYS on LED notif", this will turn on a wake lock when the LED is blinking for a notification and will obey your "Disable LED Start Hour" and "Disable LED Stop Hour" to block a wake lock when u dont want LED on. The name of the wake lock is "kt_wake_funcs" so you can track it when using them.
9. FastCharge: Completely re-did FastCharge interface adapted from Jean-Pierre and Paul Reioux. There are 3 options now for for the main selection (Enabled, Disabled, Custom mA)
10. FastCharge: When Custom mA is selected, it will obey the "Custom USB mA" and "Custom A/C mA".
11. FastCharge: Another new option is "Fail safe", when enabled it will use the lowest A/C or USB value when the cable type is UNKNOWN. When disabled it will allow you to use any custom mA instead of the predefined ones that you will see in Ktweaker when choosing the 2 Custom mA's.
12. Removed some more dmesg spam to keep logs clean and fast.
13. Linux 3.4.82
14. New ADB binary for wifi support.
15. Ramdisk merge from the CM changes for AOSP.
16. KTweaker: KTweaker update to 6.4 adding all the features from above for wake functions and new Fast Charge options.
17. KTweaker: Added menu item on main screen to quick toggle Fast Charge for Enabled/Disabled.
18. Date added to the OP links so everybody knows what the last date that particular kernel was updated last.
Change Log 02.24.2014
1. KTweaker: KTweaker update to 6.2.
2. KTweaker: New Widget by request from you guys, its a quick Profile chooser, simply click the text area left of the "Set" (if you see "-----" then it means you never did a restore profile) button and it will scroll thru all the profiles you have on your phone. Once you have the one you want, click the "Set" button . The widget is also sizable so you can size it from 1x1 all the way up to 4x1.
3. Merged in TW 4.4 into GE 4.4 version, sound is much crisper and louder
4. Added faux sound to TW 4.4
5. ktoonservativeq: New tunables called super_conservative_screen_on and super_conservative_screen_off (remove old super_conservative) so people can choose when they want to go super conservative. Be sure to go set these items if you used the old super_conservative item.

ktoonservative Governor
This governor is based on conservative, but added some tunable vars and made it a hotplugging governor unlike conservative. With the settings I included stock it is probably the most responsive gov and is pretty good at saving battery as well. Especially with my screen off option to limit the CPU top Mhz. Hope that answers all ur questions.

Im somewhat new to kernels.
By flashing this is it going to make my phone automatically run better or does this just give me the option to tweak myself and figure out how to make the phone run better?

This is a stable, unofficial CyanogenMod 11 ROM based off of official CyanogenMod device sources with some interesting (and extensive) modifications to both the kernel and the ROM. The kernel is a new custom kernel I modified based off of the official Samsung Jelly Bean kernel source code release.
Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at any of us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.
* Collectively, and at the same time.
*/

***The ROM comes with my kernel built into it; however, sometimes I may release an update for only the kernel and not the entire ROM, so the newest ROM update might not come with the newest kernel. The kernel-only update package also comes with an Aroma installer that can be used to configure some kernel options (such as display-undervolt).

The latest Philz Recovery for me too. I would of thought the latest TWRP 2.7 would work, but this kernel has lots of changes, so it could be an incompatibility. I was wondering if anybody is experiencing this, I was just listening to music earlier and when I woke up the screen, I got all the backlights lit up and a black screen which resulted in a reboot. I made sure to do a clean flash and check md5 and everything matched, it just happened roughly 30 minutes of booting up my phone this morning. Also when it rebooted, it never got to the CM logo, so I had to force reboot, which booted fine. If it happens again, I'll try to get the last_kmsg.

The CM kernel has some really weird issues (or it could be caused by Samsung's messiness), so I'm going to try and create a new kernel from scratch using official Samsung source.

thanks...recovery didn't make a difference leading me to believe it's kernel related. Thanks a bunch for your efforts, looking forward to what's "next" :highfive:
Anyone one have some weird screen glitches and screen freezing ?
Literally as I was typing how I've had no issues and everything is great, I get my first RR. Then no boot screen. Hard reboot and everything is OK again.
Wasn't next branch a staging for if CVD updated our kernel version?

That's what I've heard, but lately all of the changes to the Camera, etc has required it. This kernel version is 3.0.101, but you can tell that there were changes needed to run some of the features built in. I am really enjoying this rom for being the first release of the new branch, the only issue would be the RR.
Any logcats for the weird issues peeps?

Add me to the list of optimistic happy people now running this ROM who have used it all day with bluetooth and the video camera. Was working outstanding. And about five minutes ago after removing it from the charger (brieff bump charge), it went to sleep and the screen would not turn back on no matter what trickery I tried. I could hear messages coming in but couldn't wake the screen. I had to long press reboot. Suggestions on how I might capture something usefull when this happens? I will try and get my PC to cooperate over USB to get a terminal on it... but it hates my samsung.

I only had the one RR and my phone already rebooted so I couldn't grab the last_kmsg. Question, do I just mount my /system partition in Philz recovery and use adb to grab the last_kmsg? I quickly looked and I couldn't see anything in recovery to mention adb. I haven't grabbed one from recovery before so I am just wondering.
@NoSpamDan, As @Sultanxda was saying, the CM kernel has some weird issues going on, so he said he will look at it.

I don't want any logs right now as the CM kernel is very unstable for me. I just got my own kernel based off of pure Samsung sources booting, and already one of the random reboots I found with the CM kernel doesn't exist with this new kernel.

I don't need anything from the 'next' branch. I just used it because it was newer and I thought it would be more stable.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Make a BACKUP of boot partition using TWRP just to be on safeside!!.
Flash the zip according to the ROM which you are using.
Note:
1. Wake gestures can be controlled by using this app.
2. All thunder features can be controlled from ThunderZap Control app. Download it from playstore.
3. Use Kernel Adiutor to enable/disable options.
4. I personally recommend to use EX Kernel Manager by flar2.
**SweeptoSleep works only at bottom of screen i.e above navigation bar (Area where you open app drawer).
All thunder stuff can be known at this site.
5. Please use intelliplug driver when frequency transistion doesnt take place in right way.(It may crosses the freqency to max one.)

I'm replying so the thread would be seen in XDA Labs. It's apparently a known issue.
EDIT: Threads with no replys are sometimes not shown inside XDA Labs app. Okay, now the thread is visible. I will test the kernel later...
anyone try this already?

There are three power modes for the Wi-Fi Power Management area and they are:
PM_CAM
PM_FAST
PM_MAX
CAM (Constantly Awake Mode) – keeps the radio powered up continuously to ensure there is minimal lag in response time. This power save setting consumes the most power but offers the highest throughput.
Fast – switches between PSP mode and CAM mode, depending on network traffic. For example, it switches to CAM when it is receiving a large number of packets and switches back to PSP after the packets have been retrieved. Fast is recommended when power consumption and throughput is a concern.
Maximum – the access point buffers incoming messages for the radio. The radio occasionally ‘wakes up’ to determine if any buffered messages are waiting and then returns to sleep mode after it requests each message. This setting conserves the most power but also provides the lowest throughput. It is recommended for radios in which power consumption is most important (such as small battery-operated devices).

I didnt get you. If you are troubling with wake gestures. Just go to Kernel Aduitor app. Go to wake menu... enable all options and check Apply on boot. Also use wake gestures app to customize. Check out screenshots that i have posted.
