Why I created a SECOND kernel:
So for those of you living under a rock (jk), I already maintain Void Kernel for the One S, so why would I bother creating another? Well @Rapier started having issues, so I PM'd him a patch. He sais he would test it later but commented on how Void LP and IceCode LP were feeling a bit sluggish (they share the same base) where as the stock CM 12 Kernel is super smooth. I then tried the CM 12 stock kernel and realized that he was right. So I forked the CM stock kernel and added some basic features and sent it to him. He commented on how the OC values weren't sticking properly and the Benchmarks were really low but how it was smooth. So I fixed the OC, and added @show-p1984's MSM_MPDEC and MSM_THERMAL to speed it up and when I benchmarked it, I got 6788 in quadrant. That was a couple of hours ago. Now, I'm releasing it into the wild. The main focus of the Bricked Edition (like Bricked Kernel before it) is speed and stability. Undervolting is doable but you have to do it yourself and if you get random reboots I will not help you there. Enjoy Frosted Kernel everybody!

frostedbrickedlp02032015.zip in my AFH (I built is yesterday, did not have time to release it)

Hi thx for this kernel, haven't heard of it before. Is it compatible with sense ROMs or is it cm base only?

Why not add in the D2W/S2W patch as well? This would be best of both worlds. Easily the best CM kernel to date with it added. Pretty please?

I'll look at DT2W/S2W later, as I don't own this phone, and I did a huge cleanup of my source so I have to look through 15 defconfigs and make sure they're all configured right and compile them, and release them (5 different phones for this kernel plus planning to do two more!) plus some other projects I'm doing but I will look at it
This is CM Base Only

Awesome that you're willing to look into it. I know the S2W/DTW kernel in the mini forums does supple the patch so at least you don't have to go hunting it down. But thanks for the reply. This kernel would be amazing were that to be added. I really can't think of anything else that would make it better.
Just a question though...why is SmartassV2 disabled? Just out if curiosity?

Will DT2W/S2W still be added to this kernel? and is someone running it with androgeeks cm rom?

Why would you want to add d2w? Its a battery killer! The feature is cool and stuff but it keeps your phone awake and might also trigger on your pocket thus having screen on time, etc.. More battery drain. All that just not to push a button..
I'd rather see some more governors so we can tune the performance of the m4. My personal preference would be governors based off the interactive governor! That d be nice.

Kernel is discontinued right now, however I might consider bringing it up again some other time.
DT2W is NOT a battery killer. Yes, it does use some battery but certainly not enough to be called a battery killer
 @flar2 has talked about this before: http://elementalx.org/the-truth-about-kernels-and-battery-life/

The link not working, please update the link. I really want this kernel.

About GPU overclock:
My phone is Samsung SHV-E330S, which is basically GT-N9005 in S4 case, so 99% hardware is the same.
According to my investigation in GPU overclocking, frequencies are handled fully inside RPM firmware. Frequencies in .dtsi files aren't used. RPM uses its own frequency table and cannot be changed from linux side. So, your GPU OC simply doesn't affect actual GPU frequencies. Linux GPU governor will think it uses new frequencies and will actually switch to a wrong frequency (because RPM will use hardcoded unmatched freq table) - so everything will go wrong (as you already noticed, probably).
I've monitored GPU/PLL hardware registers and saw, they work according RPM's table and not affected by .dtsi settings.
There is the only way to overclock SD800 GPU is by modifying PLL settings (as it was done for SD600 GPU). There is PLL for highest GPU powerlevel's frequency which used solely by GPU (just like in SD600). But performance increase is not so high as it could be from increasing RAM frequency OC (which i didn't manage to tweak yet).
P.S.: I don't know about N9005, but in E330S standard highest frequency is 550MHz (according to PLL settings) instead of 450MHz as advertized in MSM8974 (not AB or AC), although in .dtsi files max frequency is 450MHz. Good bonus from Samsung
Probably, in N9005 it's the same.

Can someone recommend a governor + io combo for battery life?
Im currently running smartassv2 + sio.
Oh hell Nah. Can't wait to flash
Caught u on g+ earlier today in my lunch break. Running it since then.....greatness my friend!
Conservative is going to be your best governor for battery. I'm not sure if the I/O affects the battery too much, but I've always viewed SIO and noop as two of the best.
Sent from my LG-D850 using XDA Free mobile app
Conservative swaps less often, therefore can hold a higher clock speed, using more than it needs to. I go with adaptive, because it consumes little or no battery when idle.

I agree that Conservative ramps down very slowly. I haven't been able to find something that is better than Intellimm, but I will take a look at adaptive later.
By idle do you mean screen off(and in deep sleep mode) or idle while the screen is on?

[KERNEL][VILLE][S4][CAF][LP][MAR 18]Frosted Kernel by javelinanddart

Welcome to Frosted Kernel for the HTC One S (Ville)
Code:
#include <std/disclaimer.h>
/*
* Your warranty is now void.
*
* I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
* YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you. :P

Why I created a SECOND kernel:
So for those of you living under a rock (jk), I already maintain Void Kernel for the One S, so why would I bother creating another? Well @Rapier started having issues, so I PM'd him a patch. He sais he would test it later but commented on how Void LP and IceCode LP were feeling a bit sluggish (they share the same base) where as the stock CM 12 Kernel is super smooth. I then tried the CM 12 stock kernel and realized that he was right. So I forked the CM stock kernel and added some basic features and sent it to him. He commented on how the OC values weren't sticking properly and the Benchmarks were really low but how it was smooth. So I fixed the OC, and added @show-p1984's MSM_MPDEC and MSM_THERMAL to speed it up and when I benchmarked it, I got 6788 in quadrant. That was a couple of hours ago. Now, I'm releasing it into the wild. The main focus of the Bricked Edition (like Bricked Kernel before it) is speed and stability. Undervolting is doable but you have to do it yourself and if you get random reboots I will not help you there. Enjoy Frosted Kernel everybody!
I'm really sorry for the noobish question, but how do I tweak this kernel's settings? Which app should I use?

This was the Old Void Kernel Thread. I check both threads often.
@javelinanddart whatever you did, you did it right. Just flashed it and of course is to early to tell but looks extremly good. It's the first time I've OCed my ville so high (to max 1.8 GHz) and looks stable so far, no reboots and it doesn't get warmer either.
Proc was ramping up to the max also which was not happening in that test version also Quadrant finish the tests faster than ever. I didn't get 6800 score as you did but that could have many causes and that's not so important for me. What I care most is that phone flyes now and it doesnt reboot (yet...we'll see in time how stable it is).
Even if it lacks some of the other kernel features for now, it looks to me the best LP custom kernel so far. That's really good...trully. I do hope it won't misbehave in time cause I love how my phone feels now.

I set the voltages pretty high for stability and @show-p1984's ThermalD is working it's magic
To fix the OC problem, the Ville Regulator file wasn't accepting voltages past 1300000 even though it could handle up to 1450000
I raised the Max and it allowed the OC
EDIT: About features, there will be two versions. This and Frosted Void Edition. Void Edition will include lots of extra features where as Bricked edition is meant to be a revival of sorts of @show-p1984's Bricked Kernel. I'll add Govs and I/O Scheds but no Sound Control or KCal on this one or extra stuff like that. I might look at intelli_plug in the future but I like this because it's so smooth and fluid even if the battery life isn't as good. (Probably could be tuned with KControl to get similar battery life)
EDIT 2: DO NOT USE KERNEL TUNER IT DOESN'T WORK ON MY DEVICE IT CAUSES A BOOTLOOP
You may or may not get similar results. It got a slow down and a bootloop for me

I use Kernel Tuner 2014 just for setting the OOM values cause neither FauxClock or TicksterMOD have them preset. After I apply the values with kernel tuner I save them as presets in Trickster. I'm not so happy with this approach but I could not find a better alternative at this point

You could use an init.d script
I think the installer has one or two, I just didn't set the permissions to run the script because they're leftover from the speed tweak removal
BTW, I'm working on the To-Do list under the OP. Trying to keep it close to Bricked Kernel's feature list. Did I forget any simple features?

Don't think you forgot anything but I didn;t understood if BLN is already added or it will be...cause if it's added already it's not working. I see the option to activate it in Trickster but still I got no light on those buttons when a notification come
HM...strange...just sent myself a text message and now it's working. But On other notifications like the ones from tapatalk or G+, it didn't. Forget that, I'll test it more to see what's happening

That's probably a bug with the apps or the notifications system in lp
It works fine for me but I don't use Tapatalk and I don't know how to "fix" BLN either because some apps work and some don't
We will have to see. I'm getting the -O3 bugs ironed out. It's a pain in the *** because all the fixes for Prima don't work with the newer drivers. And they're each 12000 lines long. Trying to fix them is horrifying. I'll add Fastcharge after that and finish the rest of the to-do list soon after
EDIT: -O3 is done but when I tried to flash it, It didn't boot. @AKToronto expressed a concern about how -O3 makes the code bigger and how there's an upper limit to the kernel size. I think I hit it. I switched to XZ and am building it now to test. XZ increases the boot time a little bit but once it's booted, it makes no difference.
EDIT 2: Yep, boots with XZ. Installing Quadrant to test speed.
EDIT 3: Got 6000 in Quadrant. I think it might've been really lucky to get 6788 earlier but it terms of fluidity there's no difference
Try it yesterday, good battery life but there are some random reboots for me

The point of them is to wake up the phone is the screen is off, therefore they have to be on when the screen is off

[KERNEL][AOSP][7.x][d2vzw] Skatter Kernel-v2 - 11/03/2017

[size=+1]Welcome to Skatter Kernel forum.[/size]
Today I am very proud to release the Skatter Kernel to you guys, I've done hundreds of tests to see what features function well, and which one's don't. The idea behind this kernel is to be able to customize it the way you want, with the best battery possible
Now... let's take a look and see what's inside this bad boy.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Skatter Kernel-v2 is a complete rewrite of v1. What makes this version of the kernel so special?
It's faster, even more stable, and has the ability to run any governor from a 3.10.y kernel.
I've ran many tests and can say, these governors have been playing very nicely with our d2 device. I have not added any junk commits, or any that would cause any battery drain. Also I'm sorry for anyone on marshmallow... but kernel from now on is only going to be nougat and up.
Also I would like to make an introduction to my "Skateractive" governor! :victory:
What does the Skateractive governor do anyways?
Code:
This governor is based on the linux 3.10.y Interactive governor.
I've written it to be mostly a "screen-off profiling" governor.
Meaning, I've added tunables that allow you to customize the governor while the screen is off.
These are...
Timer_rate_multiplier: Name speaks for itself, how many times to multiply timer_rate on screen off. Max number is 10.
Screen_off_maxfreq: Set the limit the max frequency can be reached on screen off.
Screen_off_maxfreq_single_core: If you're like me and use hotplugs you'll notice it can get a bit laggy with music playback when one core is online & max freq is 702mhz. So add a frequency limit for when only one core is online and the screen is off. :good:
* Not a tunable: But enabled powersave bias on screen off & on screen-on back to normal.
Also stripped governor of any unneeded code. For best performance.

@lonelyscatter12, thanks for this! Please check the download link, as it returned a file moved message. Would also greatly appreciate adding Illinois to the collision algorithms and uc down to 54 MHz, like dkp. Higher oc speeds are possible, but not with 100% stability (1944 w/ +mvolts runs, but above 1782, downloads are corrupt-i assume a bus limitation?), so while I like to play with higher speeds and would try them, if you made them available, 1836 is a practical limit. Thanks again!

Maybe too much caffeine. Let's start with the bad download link. When I clicked the "right here" link in op, it returned: "This shared file or folder has been removed." Could you fix the link or provide mirror, please? Thanks!

Done :good:
Now what else is it that you would like, and I will do my best to add it, if possible.
It works well the kernel also tested on android 5.1 lollipop and to my surprise also worked, the only problem is that the kernel brings the problem of Android 6 videos on youtube at 60 fps not very appreciated (note this in lollipop and logically marshmallow too). I wonder if you can do this kernel but also based on lollipop.
Sent from my d2att using XDA Labs.
[size=+1]Changelog[/size]
* Added 2 governors (Intellidemand & Ondemandplus)
* Added Power Efficient Workqueues
* Added The Intelli_plug 5.2 driver
* In sync with CM
* Added OOM throttle
* A few hotplug fixes. Still have more to do but this'll do until they're are more stable.
* Added toggle for Gentle Fair Sleepers & Arch Power
[size=+1]Note:[/size]
*** Even tho linux version still says 3.4.112 it has the necessary patches for the "Dirty COW" exploit. Linux version will remain 3.4.112 as I have chosen to wait until CM officially merges 3.4.113 ***
thanks to @canodroid15 for notifying me & @decimalman for confirming the patch is in the kernel :highfive:
Wooty woot!
[size=+1]*** Changelog ***[/size]
* Synced up with LineageOS
* Fixed State Notifier, lagging when enabled with Powersuspend.
* Lowered the value of thermal driver from 70 to 50. Also made it a bit more agressive, will get a bit laggy just raise the limit to start throttling, but values will keep the phone cooler longer.
* Green screen recording/thumbnail bug is fixed. Finally. :highfive:
* Fixed a small issue with voltages.
* New experimental values for Umbrella_core governor.
- Nougat kernel only, MM kernel will be up later
As always, enjoy :good:
I have been using this kernel on LOS 14.x for months and super pleased. Overclocking to 1944 mhz works. Even downloads and pstore updates work, which were allay corrupt at any speed over 1782 mhz. Tried the 6/22/17 build and didn't have the range of options and seemed less stable. Reverted to prior build, but noticed the latest download indicates v.2. Does that mean those glitches i saw in 6/22 have been fixed? Thanks a ton for all you're doing to keep the little d2 that could chugging along!

What glitches exactly?
Please humor the N00b here; I'm curious to hear what everybody's preferred governor is, and what settings might be best for a balance of speed and stability?
I'm just getting into the custom kernel scene; steeeeeeep learning curve...

@lonelyscatter12, sorry for the long delay replying--uber busy times at work/life, etc. and perhaps mostly 'cause skatter_kernel-N-03262017.zip continues to work very well for me (many, many thanks!). I'm on the latest official LOS 14.1.x build, with MagiskSu.
The "glitches" I see with skatter_kernel-v2-N-06222017.zip when I've tried it have been that certain settings options that are available under 03262017 are not available under 06222017.
I normally set CPU to min 54-max 1890 (max available under 03262017 is 1944, which runs, but not perfectly stable). 06222017 defaults to 384-1512, like the stock CM kernel did. Min can be changed to 54, but max can't be changed and may even downgrade itself to 1188 for no reason (Thermal isn't throttling or anything like that).
Lionheart CPU governor is the only one from the OP listing that is missing in 06222017, though I don't use it, so not a biggie for me (I use tierservative or skatteractive, mostly). However, under 03262017 I've got adaptive, asswax, bioshock, dancedance, hellsactive, hyper, impulse, intelliactive, intellidemand, intellimm, optimax, pegasusq, tripndroid, uberdemand, wave, wheatley, yankactive, and zzmoove.
All hotplugs seem to be present (I've liked Alucard for balance of speed and battery life).
I get no options for thermal driver--just a single temperature/CPU throttle option--under both kernel versions.
GPU max freq. under 06222017 is 600, but under 03262017 it's 750. Though GPU governor options display under 06222017, I cannot change from the default, ondemand. I go with simple under 03262017.
Finally, under Misc. Controls, TCP Congestion Algorithm, 06222017 only displays cubic and reno, both of which suck. Illinois and Westwood are much better and available on 03262017 (also has bic, highspeed, htcp, hybla, lp, scalable, vegas, veno, and yeah).
I'm using BHB27's modded Kernel Adiutor, which works great btw, is ad free, and uses what I think is the older/better UI than the Adiutor from play store. Does not seem to make any difference that it's designed for quarks--it's just displaying the options available within the kernel, anyway, right?
I'd really like to get back the options available under 03262017 with updated versions going forward and maybe add choices for Thermal drivers, like intellithermal or a binary thermald (just called Thermal on quark). Something was done in CM 14.x/LOS 14.x that permitted the CPU to run higher clock speeds stably and without data corruption. On every rom prior to N, 1782 was the highest clockspeed at which downloads and app installations would work reliably, without data corruption. Now, all that is solid all the way up to 1890 and general operation is great at 1944, though battery life takes a hit.
Finally, gotta say first and foremost, thanks for keeping the little D2 that could chugging along! In fact, with yours and invisiblek's great work, she's not just chugging along, but sailing nearly on par with a newer 4core device!

Bonus
I'm new to app developing but, I have managed to add most features to kernel adiutor myself.
So there will be a link in OP for the app. :good:

[KERNEL] Ares-Kernel {KlteXXX}

****Ares-Kernel****
****By****
****The~Skater~187****
This kernel is a combination of SmartPack/Boeffla-Venom Samsung Galaxy S5 Lineage OS kernel, with some tweaks and additions from around the net. I have decided that since SmartPack was EOL and with sunilpaulmathews ok, I would just combine our two kernels (since fbs has Boeffla-Kernels covered) to make it easier for me to maintain his work and my own.

One More For Good Measure
YES.!!!!
sdfat code have syntax errors, aren't even compiling here.. humm
ok, fixed it and stealed it
Thanks for ur good kernel. Flashed on haggertk android pie no problem so far. At first I was getting random reboots,it caused by my magisk modules. I disable them and the problem fix. Thanks again.
LKT magisk module on this kernel cause random reboots.
Thanks for your work
So I popped over to this thread you linked to from the Venom thread and want to make sure I'm clear. This kernel (Ares-Kernel) should not be used on a Resurrection Nougat based ROM? I think that Resurrection Nougat ROM is a Lineage 14 based ROM, correct? Or even though it is Lineage 14 based, can the Areas-Kernel still be used because it is based off Lineage.
Thanks for any clarification. Left this post in other thread to just to make sure I got it in right spot. Disregard which ever one is posted in wrong spot. Thanks.
awesome dude!!! thank you so much! i'm really glad that someone continues the smart-pack kernel!
:laugh: big, Big, BIG Thank you @The~Skater~187! Really appreciate your effort and dedication in helping to keep this old phone alive and competitive! :highfive:
Hey, good work mate!
Thanks for it, we were orphan but you came and adopted us, LOL, kidding.
Just some thoughts on it.
I've found that, on thermal tab, vd restriction cant be disabled while core control is enabled. That used to happen on smartpack kernel but sunil get rid of it, maybe he can help. They are not made to be active together and can make the phone super slow and prone to crashes when it gets hot and they both kick in.
I also couldn't help to notice it's using my efficiency profile as defaults (on signature), and it's awesome, they work great don't they? Haha. I assume you grabbed it with the smartpack source code, since sunil's kernel used my profile as defaults.
There are some things that are outdated thought, specially page-cluster should be back to 0 on virtual memory as it is also prone to failures (apps don't working properly, like, a black screen without responses, based on my experiences) and crashes, min_sample_time is 0 and should be 40000 (one of the interactive governor tunables), which is an overlook by myself on an early release of my profile but fixed on the latest one already. I would recommend this small changes on the defaults, as well as the tunable io_is_busy 0 to let multicore power saving disabled.
I'm glad that you're also using it but I would also like to ask proper credits for it, I know, is not code, but demanded me months of studying and testing to get it almost where I wanted! There's a little history on the thread on my signature.

I do apologize about the credit issue, I thought I had put your name in the acknowledgment section right before ktoonsz last night, as I noticed your name on a few of the files in the RamDisk. I will definitely straighten that out and thank you for pointing that out. You are correct, I so far have just synced SmartPack source, then started applying things from my other kernel for now. I wanted to get something up-to-date and stable out for you guys before I started diving deeper into other kernel related things.
As for the rest of your suggestions, I will look into them for sure. Feel free to p.m. me with any thoughts or other suggestions.

Many thanks!
On other news, I was getting some random reboots, and found out that it was because of my undervolt settings. It's super weird, because they never gave me any problems since 3~4 months with the smartpack kernel, and it should be a setting particular to my specific device/cpu, and have the same limits across any kernel. I used the same across lots of roms, and different versions of smartpack, for nougat, oreo and pie, so, I hope you can see why I find this very weird.
But, I don't know if it's actually a 'bug', I will find some time to fine tune it, raise some voltages to see where I can go with Ares kernel without crashing. For now I'm using the default voltages.

I did do a bit of an overhaul on the voltage table when I added the higher oc steps, due to the fact that on my other kernel lower voltages stock we're causing problems and random freezes.
Sent from my kltespr using Tapatalk
Yeah, I'm sure you know, undervolting need to be done step by step, making sure the lowest you can go, device specific, so risking repeating myself, same voltages should probably 99,99% of the time works across any kernel/rom on a given device. I don't think it is the undervolt anymore.
It took a while but I still had some reboots with default voltage, once I was finally able to press up and home right after it, so it rebooted directly to TWRP and I copied the last_kmsg, it's attached, all configs were on default. I hope it helps to find out what it may be.
I'm back on smartpack for now, cause the same setup and profile runs without no problems, so I think it should not be a problem just on my end, is it? Anybody else?
Fun fact, I was are able to dirty install smartpack kernel over ares and vice-versa and it detected and updated itself without any problems.
I'm able to go kinda low here with no crashes:

@The~Skater~187 edit: oh, I just noticed, there's no option to input 268 MHz voltage. My voltages are getting placed on the wrong frequency because of that, found the problem!
I recovered the backup I just made before installing the kernel, I had installed the shushified bootleggers 3.0 on top of the unshushified 3.0, they are the same rom except for official (shushified) status, but anyway, that may be the cause of some of my problems, adding up to the 268 missing voltage that was overlooked by me.
After that I installed Ares kernel again with no undervolt and gone to sleep. Woke up today, and no reboots, then I was trying to test undervolting it and found out about the missing 268 voltage, so every previous voltage I used was getting used on 1 clock step above, so, not enough power for sure.
Just put my exactly same volts on their correspondent freq and no reboots until now!
It also seems that Core Control is staying enabled and VD Restrictions is disabled correctly now too. So, if you experience the same you may disregard it as well.
Thanks for this!!
Great so far, this with Pie ROMs is the best battery life I've had since stock.
4-5 hours sot, 7h active, 12h idle..(gsam stats) on this original 2800mah. I've gone from 4-5 charges a day to 1-2.
And kernel brightness control keeps the flickers away.
Edit: did notice both vdd and core thermals being active, didn't cause any overheating/reboots (i often run cpu info as overlay) but I stuck with core control only to be safe. It doesn't stick after reboot.

Yeah, after some further analysis, I came to find out exactly the same.
After a reboot both VDD and CC come back up, and I have to do a little dance, like, disable vdd and cc, enable intellithermal, then enable only cc, or something like that, then it will stick with only cc until the next reboot.
Ok, so I decided I'm going keep an "unofficial" SmartPack kernel going (nothing more than source updates will be applied) as well as my off shoot kernel project. I will have it available for you guys tomorrow evening.
