[DISCONTINUED][ROM+KERNEL][4.4.4] Stable CyanogenMod 11 [May 16, 2015] - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

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:

***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).

Man thank you so much for this, I just put this thing through the ringer and everything works perfectly!!! Thanks so much to you and anybody who helped make this possible!

Giving it a shot and its running great. No complaints, nice and vanilla-y, just a great rom. Oh and just to reiterate what Andrw0830 stated, camera and camcorder are fantastic. :good:
Edit: Must've been thinking of a different thread haha. ANYWAYS, camera and camcorder ARE great lol

cool, thanks for the reply. Not sure if it's the recovery as I've flashed pretty much every other recent ROM in this forum successfully..i'll try redownloading and then philz if that still doesn't work

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.

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:

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

clean-qwerty-cm-10-galaxysl.zip: restore zip with dhiru1602's kernel
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.

README
Emmanuel U said:
Ugh... (oh how I've dreaded making this post, go grab the kleenex or you can just skip the next paragraph and get to the jist)
So my (previously used and "refurbished") myTouch is slowly becoming useless. So I had originally dropped it onto concrete (a month and a half ago) in which I didn't notice any visual/cosmetic damages so I assumed I was fine. However promptly after attempting to open my keyboard I notice my phone would freeze for 5 or seconds before registering the hardware event and rotating screen etc. It eventually began to progress to display weird digital artifacts at random times during use (which would cause annoying lag). Then one faithful day, the 'lag' was getting to excessive while I urgently needed to use my phone so I battery pulled in hopes of rebooting the phone as quickly as possible to use...but just my luck; the phone turned back on but the display didn't (in the sense that I felt the phone vibrate when I initially pressed the power button alongside seeing the small red light in my trackpad light up). So after a stressful day of trying to play with my phone in fastboot/adb I managed to turn my display back on. But now the display failure has progressed to the point of my phone only being usable when they keyboard is pulled out around 2/5 of the way and kept in that position....all other positions render the display useless. This makes it fairly difficult to use the device seeing as it has to be kept in this abnormal position to function.
Jist: I ordered a temporary Galaxy S2 off ebay until my contract ends so that I can switch carriers all together. So I won't really be able dev on this phone like I use to with it being broken. However I'll try to still occasionally update my roms as far as upstream...but any bug fixes at this point sadly won't be able to come from me as debugging on this phone is tedious. But keep in mind I'll still poke my head periodically in this forum and see if my 2 cents is needed anywhere. But don't expect anything more from me then 'upstream updates'.
Good day guys and remember to have a firm grip on your phone at all times.
Update:
First of all I'm quite flattered to all the people who offered up a MT4GS to giveaway, such a generous community we have here :good:
However this will not be necessary as I still have a slightly working MT4GS...the only reason I got a GSII is because it's not functional enough to be my daily driver due to the position it has to be held in to function. Nevertheless I can still develop on the phone (which was why I stated I was planning on updating this rom soon). But I'd like to say thanks again directly to @BaconPancakes and @Ziida and anyone else who may have been planning to offer me a a MT4GS...but it won't be needed.

Could you kindly list the governors this kernel? Also, am i right to say that this kernel contains all the features found in scverhagen's kernel? Thanks in advance.
This kernel is pretty good in performance and behaves better than scverhagen's but wifi isn't working properly.

At times, it wouldn't turn on or the speeds be very slow. Reboot helps though.
But I like the kernel and how it works with option "disable HW overlays" unchecked. And video playbacks aren't glitchy. Also, it gave me about 5fps gain in NenaMark2 gbench.
Update, enjoy (and report feedback)
Thanks for the update!
FPS in NenaMark2 seems to be lower even on max 1.7Ghz. Still testing the kernel.

also you said scores are lower, but lower compared to what?
Build 005 broke my camera viewfinder.
The picture is fine after you snap the photo but green/garbled picture while looking before taking the shot (if that makes sense)
I tried screenshotting but the picture was also fine!
Might be just me, I wiped Dalvik after the flash though.

I was getting around 48 fps on SilverL's and Tbalden's AOKP and CM stock kernels (scverhagen's base I think), now it's less than 42fps on v.004. 43-44fps on v.005.
The test is NenaMark2.
But overall the kernel seems to be smooth and nice.

This is to be expected. These two governors seem to be doing what they're supposed to. They not made for benchmarks. The way mine is currently they have a middle ground frequency which i assume you may be hitting most of the time while this is going.
These 2 governors also take gpu into consideration and adjust their speeds accordingly. If it doesnt need both cpu and gpu to process, the cpu will actively throttle and not stay maxed which possibly results in the fluctuating scores. I get 42 fps on mine...(currently not updated to latest). You probably just ended up running the tests at times where something else was keeping the cpu at a higher frequency.
When I use the performance governor I get 52 but that governor keeps the cpu at the current max frequency (mine being 1080).
OpenGL scores will fluctuate with these governors... its nothing to worry about. I ran the test too, it doesnt seem to be as intensive as any game would be, doesnt require user interaction(something which also drives the cpu frequency throttling in games), so I wouldnt worry about these benchmarks. If you want to benchmark you should really be using performance as the stepping in any other governor will always vary based on load, and this tests puts more load on the gpu allowing the cpu to change frequencies as it sees fit.
Should mention my intellidemand score is 48 and badass is 42.

Thanks for exlaining the things about these governors. But I've noticed that Badass keeps the max frequency only up to 908Mhz even if the load is 100% unlike intellidemand. That's weird. BTW I've tried the 1.7 performance and got only 48 without any background tasks.
i think this is a kernel issue...why does the phone keep resetting the max frequency is 1188?! happens no matter what i do. is it an adaptive governor limitation or something?

set the max freq with an app that is set to restore on boot (SetCPU, CM performance, etc.)
That's what I've been doing. And I even tested by restarting and it'll keep the 1512, then I'll check a bit later and it's back to 1188.
So I switched to kernel tuner thinking that won't have the issue, but I just checked and it switched back to 1188 and I haven't restarted in between.
Within one boot session it shouldn't just reset the frequency. And it's not just adaptive cuz I'm on badass now

Sounds like you may have conflicting bootup settings or init.d settings. I would find a way to clean those up. Id suggest wipiing but no one ever likes doing that.

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.

It will work, except for the problem with sound in phone calls. I'm waiting for someone to post logs so I can see if it is possible to fix.
It wont install via recovery.

In his changelog he did not state he disabled perflock.
please port these with disabled perflock to 1.29 base

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

perfect 2 way call recording ???

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.
Download:
Bulletproof-m7-0.2
Changes:
-disable perflock
-arm cpu topology
-update cpu_power according to cpu load
-mhl change to [email protected]
-add CIFS support
-add FIOPS and SIO i/o schedulers
-update ramdisk
Whoops, I forgot to update the wifi module
I added it to the zip just now.
If you want wifi, please re-download and install.

Still got the issues with calls mate?
If so what logs do you need and when do you need them?

Instaled on N 7000
Excelent Rom.. but same problems with battery.
I saw also a lot of people encounter battery problems with this rom: meaning the battery will report to be fully charged and after a some time when the level down to 20-30% the phone not respond or shout down and never up. after connected the charger will say to be 1%. Also when turning off the device, which has its battery completely drained and then gently touching the power button in order to see whether it is charging > it will say the battery is already on 30%... I have tried this with two different batteries...

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.
