Best kernel configuration for Mi4c - Xiaomi Mi 4C

Hi. I propose a thread to talk about kernel configuration. Although, as we know, the kernel sources of the MI4C were not shared by XIAOMI, the kernel used in their ROMs is still (slightly) configurable, for example using the Kernel Auditor application from the market. I propose to share and discuss about 3 types of kernel configurations: battery saving, performance and balanced. Which parameter do you use which suits each configuration?

[KERNEL SOURCE] ZenDROID - Updated 7/13! BFS v304 (Kconfig Option!), tuned,SIO,BUILDS

The Zen Kernel Project presents...
The ZenDROID Kernel
----------------------
What is it?
* Kernels for Android devices
* If you have suggestions, patches, fixes, whatever - they will be reviewed and implemented like a "community kernel", and you'll get credit if desired
What's so special about it?
* Idk, it's zen - each one will end up being different somehow, but implementing a few things others have done and implementing what others have not done.
---------------------
ZenDROID 2.6.29 For the EVO 4g (based on HTC's official source)
Changes over HTC official source (See gitweb for the most detail
7/13/2010
- BFS v304 backported to 2.6.29 - Stopped here as it was a little bit of work to get to this point, I will continue through 318 later on only taking changes that will have a significant effect.
- BFS is tuned to be less aggressive with the nice levels, this should fix any lag that other bfs kernels experience, although without this adjustment on DC 3.2.3 my system is lightning fast.
- Remove nice from the workqueue and kthread (for both CFS and BFS)
- toast's audio boost (thanks)
7/5/2010
- Add AOSP atmel touch screen driver (from toast's kernel), but implemented differently. Selecting CONFIG_AOSP will use atmel_aosp.c, which will fix the screen for aosp. The Kconfig option is the first one above general setup, may be needed for some other drivers in the future, but for now only changes the touch screen one.
- Undervolt patches (no OC or anything yet, that will be a separate patch or Kconfig option or whatever) - about .1V less, seems what they're going with around the town
- Simple I/O scheduler. Based on deadline, v(r), and no-op perfect for SSDs or flash discs. I expect it to be ideal for the EVO and other android phones.
- Made lowmemorykiller less aggressive by default
- Some CFS adjustments (no bfs til' i start froyo, we need to research android's nice settings)
Branch: evo4g-src-2.6.29
GIT IS UP!
http://git.zen-kernel.org/?p=kernel/zendroid.git;a=summary
Like I said, don't plan anything earth shattering for the .29 kernel, but there is still more I just got started suggestions/patches are welcome.
DOWNLOADABLE BUILDS
*** Not yet availlable, I have a few things I want to implement like the 30fps hack fix (will also be a Kconfig option), 5 point multi touch (Kconfig option), overclocking (may not be in the first build, not really a priority over the other things)
I have tested this already on DC, the system is very fast and no lag or anything is present. The simple I/O scheduler seems to be working great with no flaws, and there is no touch lag - the system actually feels quite a bit faster. - This is with no 30 fps fix!
This sounds like a really good idea, but what else can you bring to the table other than a well-maintained kernel? Look at the Nexus board, it's ALL kernels, most of which are pretty well maintained. I think it's great that you wanna do this, but you'll have to provide something to differentiate yourself from all the other custom kernels.
Making this a community kernel much like CyanogenMod is on the ROM side would be a good way, like allowing users to submit their own patches that you could review and choose to incorporate (or not ) would be a good way IMO.
Just giving some suggestions, best of luck!
Regards,
Jesse C.
i see you are going for BFS cpu scheduler as the default; i know that on the Nexus One, the BFS was very unstable and the CFS worked like a charm; not sure, if there are enough similarities between the N1 and Evo, but will the BFS also be unstable for the most part?
i had the N1 prior to getting the EVO and tried few BFS kernels and it wasn't as stable as the CFS; BFS ran the phone at a higher temperature and few other things that i can't remember now
EDIT: as for kernels, would like to see Overclocked kernel as well as Undervolted kernels (similar to maybe IntersectRaven's kernel on the Nexus One forum, where he uses AVS and undervolted to 925mV, which was best for N1 from experience)
Welcome! look forward to seeing your kernel!
Josh
Sounds good bro. I plan to start working on custom kernels as soon as the holiday is over so if you need any help just let me know.
Welcome, we need more kernels for CyanogenMod 6.0.
Have fun.
The broken BFS must have been poorly implemented or a really old version or something. I don't foresee any problems, if there are I'll work them out with CK.
It's not entirely about being 100% unique, more so being another option. And options are good in this open source community Although I'm totally open to suggestions.
Like I said, I don't expect the BFS problems of those kernels, but we'll certainly work them out if need be. I have not had a bfs-related bug report in quite a long time. (pre 2xx). I'd imagine the benefits could be quite surprising actually
One of our developers made an i/o scheduler, SIO "simple I/O scheduler"
It's based on no-op and deadline PERFECT for SSD or just non-spinning disks. I imagine it would be perfect for phones, although I'd like to do some heavy testing before pushing that because of how young it still is (although it's very simple so any bugs shouldn't be especially hidden like they may be in say, cfq)
Updated first post, GIT is up and also updated the plans
Ok guys, about ready to use although I've done no testing yet. I AM implementing a zen-sched patch which will allow selection of BFS or CFS, and i have a few more tricks for CFS up my sleeve yet.
We'll get to BFS 318 , a few things in between aren't worth porting but otherwise it'll be mostly complete.
I also added compcache 0.6.2, that's all located in drivers/block (where I used to put it on the older kernels, now it's in staging but oh well)
Updated!
Now we have a proper backported BFS, read the OP!
I flashed a test to my phone over the DC rom i'm running and everything works great! Using SIO and BFS v3xx

[TWEAK] Android test tune (for FlashBeatsReloaded Kernel)

I represent a test set of scripts for the automating kernel configuration.
Written and tested on version 3.4.33 [Kernel]FlashBeatsReloaded v3.4.33 OC 1,56Ghz AROMA.
"Having played enough" programs Trickster MOD, Faux123 Kernel Enhancement and similar, I has decided that it is necessary to simplify the process of installing the best, in my opinion, parameters for the kernel when the smartphone turns on. I love experimenting and having fun testing a majority of ROM and kernels. To reduce the "manual work" after reinstalling the ROM/kernels, I did this file.
The installation via TWRP, the presence of pre-installed support INIT.D necessary.
I express my sincere gratitude to users 4PDA.RU and XDA forums for a huge amount of background information and examples of various settings.
I thank all those whose work and experience has helped me to write the script.
Special thanks to the user Thestealth2, which is developing the project [Kernel] FlashBeatsReloaded.
Functions, performed by the script:
Performing FSTRIM for partitions /system, /data and /cache. Analogue "LagFix (fstrim)", but without the "unnecessary" actions and attitudes.
Disabling some "kernel sleepers"
Running the generator of entropy. Analogue - "Seeder"
If the kernel presence ZRAM support, activates the swap file on 200 MB.
Various tweaks related to EXT4 file system and database files format SQLite.
Setting the minimum and maximum CPU frequency
Installing the CPU governor to Ondemand and tuning the power save mode
Installing the I/O Scheduler to ROW and its setting
Installing the GPU governor to Ondemand and configure it
Setting the read ahead buffers to 2MB for internal and external memory
Other tweaks
PS: Criticism, suggestions, etc. welcome.
PPS: I'm not trying to impose someone my opinion, just show one way of the setting options.
Sounds good, will give it a try later on.
Thanks for your work!

Questions
Q: Will this work on newer bootloaders?
A: It should. The kernel is based on the most recent of LG sources.
Q: What control app do you suggest using?
A: I suggest using SmartPack, or EX Kernel Manager.
Q: Where can I donate? I want to donate!!
A: I don't accept donations because of two reasons. One: I don't really need it. Two: I like the idea of this being totally free, it adds to the enjoyability of the kernel.
Q: I'm having some problems with kernel not working or booting?
A: If you have downgraded your bootloader (i.e by flashing Asgard kernel first) then that is likely why. My kernel works on new firmware, not exactly sure how far back the compatibility goes.
Q: I flashed this zip in recovery, but it didn't seem to work, I'm still on my old kernel. What can I do?
A: With AnyKernel you shouldn't need to re-flash ROOT after flashing kernel (if already installed, if not, do it before flashing kernel). SuperSu has been known to revert the kernel install if you do so.
Q: OK so I just rooted my phone and installed this, and OMGOSH! so excited, now what do I do - do I tweake-dy freak out huh huh? How do I do it??
A: Put simply, don't do anything. I don't know how things where in the past, but now you don't need to do anything. Not with this kernel anyhow. Such thing are better discussed in a separate thread anyway.
Thanks for your work. Tested your kernel with H850 and Fulmics 4.5. Works well but bluetooth isn't working, it's not possible to activate.
Returned with backup to stock.

I'm sorry too, but when I started this project, I did it in the only way I know (and what seemed simplest to me) and that is to do stuff manually. I don't have experience with github or any elaborate development tools, heck I hardly know how to do this stuff, but I'm learning more and more.
I can upload the latest source in zip if that is satisfactory.
Sorry if this breaks xda rules, but I'm sure I've seen other projects not having their full, direct sources posted.

Well, as far as I know GPL requires sources to be published. But it's not that I brag about complying to licenses. I am genuinely interested in changes made. I enjoy reading @eoghan2t7 commits on his kernel tree every few days. As for me, I am not really interested in a single zip Version control systems are awesome and it would be great if your kernel tree could use it.

Yes, as I got further into this project I figured it would be better to open a qithub account next time.
So I'll probably do that with the next major source drop from LG.
Flashed in fulmics 4.5, running fine so far. I will report battery life, thanks for your job!

Temps are alot more stable right now, but battery life is still horrible for me.
Asgard did indeed have overheating in versions 5.x, but since then it had been fixed
Version 1.0
Super excited about this one
Compiled with gnu11, graphite, O3 and other optimizations. Most of them was borrowed from @jahlex D.O.T.S Kernel (Thanks!) - but gnu11 was my idea. I really don't know if is good to do or not, but hey...
It's been tested "adequately" I'd say. But that probably means inadequate in most tongues, however, I like to take few risks and gamble every now and then
Performance seems very much increased, battery as well.
Added Maple i/o
Alucard and Zzmoove (bLE) governors
Fixed small omissions here and there
Maple is default IO (was initially going for FIOPS), since that hooks into "display_state" making it aware of screen on/off.
Zzmoove is default cpu governor. Alucard could not be set as default at build time - kernel would not boot
I've added a zip to fix lg bootup script in /system/etc - it, amongs other things, sets *interactive* governor as default
Hotplugging characteristics can be customized.
May it serve you all well!

Version Information
Status: Stable
Current Stable Version: RC1

Initial release
Frequently asked questions
Q: Will this conflict with any mod I'm using?
A: As long as it doesn't have any entropy related stuff, its okay. Since the kernel already comes with an inbuilt entropy generator, it will conflict with the ones from mod, causing a poor, stuttered performance!
Q: Deep Sleep isnt working for me, Google Services causing wake-locks, what to do?
A: Go to settings, Privacy, Privacy Guard, All apps, long press Google Services, and deny/disable wake-locks! (Thanks to @Paget96 for the solution)
Q: Is your kernel secure?
A: You MAY face some issues, but it's safe! My cell phone has not exploded yet.
Q: WiFi doesnt work for me.
A: Reflash ROM and Kernel.
Q: What application can I use to configure the kernel?
A: Use Spectrum, and if you have enough knowledge of what to modify or do in the application use together Kernel Adiutor.
Q: Can I use the kernel source in my ROM?
A: If you want to use my kernel in your ROM, just put my name in the credit, just like I did.
Q: Does your kernel support writing to the NTFS file system?
A: Yeeh, you can use flash drives and HD with NTFS via OTG.
Q: My cpu clock is locked with any governor.
A: Just disable the thermal control in the kernel temperature settings.
Q: I have problems with your kernel.
A: Take a logcat and kmesg, this website and this video should help you
Q: Why does my magisk and root disappear after installing your kernel?
A: The kernel script makes changes that directly interfere with both, reinstall the magisk that it will function normally, follow this installation line always: FloppyKernel -> Magisk -> Reboot system.
Q: What is the "Battery" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on Project Zhana & X.A.N.A was made for trying to be as efficient as possible without compromising the performance. Thanks to the discovery on Voltages used by our SD820 I could make a profile that utilizes more the BIG cluster. My first attempt was to move ALL the load to the BIG cluster, it was against anything that I have learned about little. BIG CPU but I tried, it turned really good at first, low usage was just amazing... But on more usage things didn't go that good. So what I did it was to give a twist to things, but not such twist. It kind of works like Nameless and Shotgun, Mostafa Wael and I worked the same idea. #LITTLE cluster will be running on low-mid frequencies but delivers full performance when is needed. # BIG Cluster will help LITTLE ease Load, but in a great way than before. Things can be done faster and more efficient giving us profit in form of battery. It should run smooth on all scenarios, but you guys tell me. You can easily get around 7~9 hours SOT for 24 hours even more If you don't play game. This will, of course, may vary, but it will definitely be better.
Q: What is the "Balanced" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on GhostPepper was made to uses a quantized, frequency-aligned parametric curve to influence low core clock rates while providing extremely smooth transitions from each clock rate and exceptional battery life. Really well-defined clock speed escalation for a good battery and performance.
Q: What is the "Performance" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on FusionP this profile brings a more "agressive" way to scale frequencies. It will scale frequencies sooner(regarding load values from cpu) and will use more the big cluster to provide more performance doing the tasks on hands. Battery should not take a big hit but using heavy demanding tasks you can expect a higher drain.
Q: What is the "Gaming" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on Burnout PR5, this profile's main goal is to provide absolute maximum performance when needed, but lies low quite well. You see, some times I see the CPU hitting some of the high freqs of 1190 while making something as simple as watching YouTube or playing some spotify tracks needlessly, and sometimes I feel it is a bit slower than it should be in things like brute multitasking. Most profiles do aim at bringing a mid-ground to rest on. But with the sensible words of one of my favourite idols Jeremy Clarkson, he says 'Power solves everything' and right he is. By eliminating the mid freqs of the Little cluster and efficiently using some specific frequency steps, you get some power savings by staying on lower freqs as much as possible, and even on brutal tasks you get the job done faster as well, since the CPU will give you all the power to finish the job as fast as it can, and hit back to idle faster.
Q: I want more information about your spectrum profiles.
A: Read this thread.
Hi there.
Is it possible to run this kernel on the LOS 15.1?
Did read that it is for the 14.1, but you know, why not try to brick it?
Have you tested it? Cause the android go version of oreo with a good kernel could really make thea a brand new entry-level phone. With google camera 5 it could even compete with some budget phones from 2017.
Thanks for the kernel, Just flashed it on AOKP Nougat and it's running smoothly.
I discovered Spectrum with your post, amazing app to don't have an headache with kernel tweaking.
However does Spectrum activates a hotplug or does I have to activate it with kernel adiutor or else ?
PS: Spectrum profile's values can't be seen in Kernel Adiutor, I just see Lineage profile values... Also by looking at your spectrum init script I see that you assume that Thea have BIG and small clusters. when I'm trying to `cat` the value for some lines they do not exist.
Thanks a lot for keeping our good old Thea alive.
One more thing.
Could you make the kernel compatible with the oneoplus camera from this post ?
What camera app are you using?

Tried flashing your new build...dirty flashed and then, because it wasn't working, clean flashed on 28/12 and 29/12 build of LOS 15.1 with TWRP 3.2.1-0. But unfortunately the phone (thea - XT1072) was stuck on boot logo every time. I really would like to see the kernel working on LOS 15.1, because it worked really good on LOS 14.1.
A few questions mate:
So the cpu is clocked to 1.6 Ghz right? Cpu z shows it reaching 1.2 only. Perhaps on performance profile?
How do i enable dt2w?
Got some lags in some animations, for example in settings, going to display, the animation in between is kinda sluggish. Whats funny is, overall the device is smoother! Some settings must be changed perhaps?
Is the permissive Selinux a big deal?
Im using Los 14.1 with your balanced profile. Thanks, happy new year!

Use kernel adiutor, cpu z is not very good to get info, dt2w dont work on thea, only in titan, it is normal to have some lags, after all it is an old device already, it also depends on its use, selinux dont will stop the lags, if that's what you're thinking
I'm using in titan, your kernel doesn't lag but battery gets horny (bad joke) I mean that the battery duration got worst, you maybe consider undervolting a little and upgrading your lmk parameters because it does make apps don't lag but it's a little aggressive, it does FC my keyboard (google keyboard) and I don't wanna be annoying but I have a request, can you bake voltage control into the kernel?
---------- Post added at 09:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:26 PM ----------
I can provide sources for voltage control if you want and, where I send logs?
---------- Post added at 10:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 PM ----------
The fix for laggy animations when opening recents and for almost the animations is disabling the adreno idler, or tweaking it
If you have any other test builds for 8.1 just pm me so I can test it
I am using Thea. I like your kernel but had to remove it and restore a backup because the battery usage settings was hanging. When I unplugged after charging it still showed up as charging. That I could fix with a restart but then it wouldn't show what apps was used since last charge. Didn't note any significant improvement in battery duration the days I tried out your kernel.
BTW is there a way to remove your kernel without having to install a backup?
Are you still here?
Is this kernel compatible with Android 8.1? I am running LOS 15.1 but I want to use FloppyKernel because I loved it when I was running Nougat.
However, there is a problem. I can't afford to flash it because I am currently using my device a lot and there is no boot.img in your script. I tried to manually repack a boot image with your Zimage and hot-boot it from Fastboot but it stays stuck in the Motorola logo when I do it. I dumped LuK's Oreo kernel and it hot-boots fine. I'll also try to build your kernel from source.
I really hope that you didn't abandon this device too, but if you did then I will try to become a developer for this nice old phone.

[Kernel][03.07.2022][Android 12] Kirisakura 2.0.0_S for Asus Rog Phone 3 aka OBIWAN

Kirisakura-Kernel for the Rog Phone 3
Hello everyone,
To keep it short: Here is Kirisakura - Kernel for the Rog Phone 3 aka OBIWAN.
I would appreciate if everybody that flashes the kernel, reads at least once through this opening post and the following ones.
Kirisakura - Kernel is designed to bring a handful of beneficial features to the device, while ensuring excellent performance and smoothness to get you safely through the day!
This project aims to keep most of the subsystems updated, way ahead of the stock kernel, thereby improving security and performance, while keeping stability as the foucs during testing! This includes Linux-Stable, CAF-Upstream and kernel/common.
Kernel Control Flow Integrity (Kernel-CFI), which is achieved by linking the kernel with LLD and Link Time Optimization (LTO), more precisely ThinLTO, are quite unique security features. In fact this, alongside Kirisakura-Kernel for the OnePlus 8 Pro, may be (and probably is) the first 4.19 msm kernel with a fully working Kernel-CFI implementation and CFI-Violations fixed on a smartphone.
The only kernels made by OEMs offering this security feature are the ones for the Pixel 3 and Pixel 4 devices.
The recently released Kirisakura-Kernel for the OnePlus 8 Pro was featured on the XDA-Portal due to the inclusion of CFI. The featured article explains CFI in great details, is easy to understand and definitely worth to read.
Another security feature is Shadow Call Stack (SCS). Similar to CFI, only the Pixle 3 and 4 Kernel use this security feature.
SCS is another security patchset that is aimed at preventing attacks via return oriented programming (ROP).
ROP is a technique where the attacker gains control of the kernel stack to overwrite function return addresses and redirect execution to carefully selected parts of existing kernel code.
If you´re interested here are a few good links:
Google Security Blog explaining SCS.
LLVM doc about SCS
Android DOCs documenting SCS
If reading about upstream in the paragraph above got you curious,have a read about Linux-Stable and why it is important here. The stable-process is not the same for every subsystem, but the general idea, rule of thumb and benefits are applicable for other subsystems as well.
Quick explanation of CAF-Upstream. CAF is short for Codeaurora-Forums. This is the place where development from Qualcomm for their SoCs happens. This includes the Snapdragon 865/+ that´s built into the different SKUs of the Rog Phone 3.
The kernel-bases available on the Codeaurora-Forums, are basically the foundations OEMs use, to build their own kernel additions on top for devices featuring Qualcomm SoCs.
The Qualcomm developers push regular updates to the bases of the different SoCs, a bit similar to how Linux-Upstream works. OEMs usually stop updating the initial base after the phone is released.
This kernel focuses amongst the other features to provide the latest CAF-Updates merged in a regular manner, to provide updates, improvements and enhancements for SoC specific drivers and subsystems! This might take a while, because a lot of device specific testing is done on my end to ensure stability.
The kernel includes a lot of improvements and contributions from other developers as well. Without this kernel would not exist.
I´d like to mention @tbalden ´s excellent CleanSlate features at this place. They improve usability by a big margin for me personally. The highly customizable sweep to sleep implementation (adjustable to different navigation settings), long tap to bring down status bar (very useful on a big device), backlight dimmer and notification reminder are very useful features that I use personally every day.
Another big part of improvements originate from @arter97´s, @kdrag0n´s and @Sultanxda´s work. Many others contributed in some way or another to this kernel.
A big thanks to all of them at this place!

Flashing Guide, Download and Changelog
A description how to flash the kernel, links for download and a changelog can be found in the second post!
Contributors
Freak07
Source Code: https://github.com/freak07/Kirisakura_OBIWAN
Version Information
Status: Stable
Requirements
- unlocked Bootloader
- USB-Debugging in developer options enabled
- latest adb and fastboot binaries
- working adb and fastboot environment
- latest magisk stable root environment
- a backup of boot.img and dtbo.img to be able to restore to stock.
How to flash the Kernel:
1. Download the latest kernel.zip and make sure you have properly updated to the latest matching Asus Stock-Firmware. When the Rog 3 receives an update it takes Asus a while to release the source code for the new OS and me a while to build a new kernel. If you don´t want to face any issues, wait until I either release an updated kernel or give green light because there were no kernel changes.
Always make sure to run the firmware the kernel is built for!
1a. Optional: While it may not be necessary all times, you may want to restore stock boot.img as well as dtbo.img, re-root with magisk and optionally install twrp.zip if coming from another kernel. Before reporting issues make sure you do that! Thank you!
2. Make sure to meet all the requirements listed above.
3. Flash the kernel.zip via latest EXKM or FKM app, or TWRP and do a full reboot.
4. Reboot and profit. Set CleanSlate features as you desire by installing both apps and choose according to your liking.

FAQ
F.A.Q:
Question: Why does the kernel version show as "unavailable" in settings after flashing it.
Answer: Asus does not allow for custom kernel names in their settings. If the kernel string doesn´t fit their regex, it will display as unavailable there. Nothing can be done about it. Use a kernel manager to check the kernel version.
Question: Is root preserved when flashing this kernel?
Answer: Yes, the AnyKernel.zip will detect root and keep it.
Question: How do I return back to stock or another kernel.
Answer: Extract boot.img as well as dtbo.img from matching firmware you are on and flash the extracted boot.img and dtbo.img via fastboot. If you want to keep root flash back the magisk_patched_boot.img. Or dirty flash your rom.
Question: Why is having Magisk installed mandatory for this kernel?
Answer: Android 10s changes to partitions, doesn´t allow files in system/ and vendor/ to be replaced. This kernel is very far from the stock kernel. To account for this I can´t force load the stock kernel-modules for certain drivers as it happens on kernels that are closer to stock.
Instead we use Magisks function to overlay certain files during boot. Without a working Magisk environment the kernel cannot function.
Question: I have a phone that is converted from CN to WW and now there´s a warning from hardwarestub. Can I hide it?
Answer: Yes, I created a Magisk Module for those that want to hide the notification, so nobody needs to rely on paid apps.
The Magisk module can be found attached to this post.
Please note that refresh rate can´t be changed when the module is flashed. To able to change refresh rate or to remove the module, simple remove it in Magisk Manager and do a full reboot. I´ll attach it to the third post on this thread. There will be no support for this module from my side and no other support for converted devices.
Question: How to report bugs properly?
Answer: Have a look at post #3 in the linked thread. The linked guide is a pretty good starting point.
Before reporting any bug make sure you´re running on a stock configuration. That´s means you´re not using any mods, tweaks in kernel managers or other root tweaks , magisk modules, scripts or other modifications that alter various functions like sound mods, data traffic, sleeping behaviour, scheduler, magical battery tweaks etc.
Try to describe the issue as detailed as possible! Give your exact setup, like rom, magisk version, kernel version.
Is the issue reproducible? Does it happen frequently?
Provide logs, otherwise debugging is a lot harder. If you can already reproduce the issue and provide logs it greatly limits the amount of time I have to spent until I figure out how to reproduce it.
If the device force reboots/randomly reboots (that means you see the bootloader unlocked screen!) provide a .zip with the contents of sys/fs/pstore.
If the issue happens while the device is running provide a dmesg plus a logcat that you take while/shortly after the issue happens. This will log what´s running in the current session. Try to be as detailed as possible what´s happening when the issue appears. It will also help me in reading the log!
CleanSlate Features and how to use them
CleanSlate Features and how to use them
This kernels offers its users the possibility to use CleanSlate features. CleanSlate-Kernel is developed by @tbalden.
CleanSlate kernel follows a different approach than Kirisakura-Kernel.
We know each other well over the years now and often have worked together.
For more information about CleanSlate visit @tbaldens CleanSlate thread on the Rog 3 Forums linked here.
The CleanSlate features add a lot of flexibility to a device. That´s why I like to include the features in my kernel.
Notifications Reminder, Flashlight Notifications, Turn Phone to sleep and a very advanced sweep to sleep interface that works well with Android 10 Gestures.
We decided to transform Brightness Dimmer and FPS-Override into CleanSlate accessible features as well.
That allows users to easily control these features with the CleanSlate apps.
CleanSlate features are easily accessible via the CleanSlate Configuration app. The Cleanslate Companion app provides a userspace backend for the kernel and is required for some features.
Make sure to install both of these apps, when flashing my kernel and you want to utilize these features.
The apps ask for some permissions. Enable them and do a full reboot to make sure everything is playing nicely
that´s how the companion app will look after enabling it.
https://photos.app.goo.gl/x6sFJc5cUFT9Q7U47
It´s needed for userspace related features, like double tap swipe area for notification pull down.
Every section of the Configuration App has different settings. Basic, Advanced and Preset. You can click on these buttons to change between them.
Advanced will offer you more customization if available.
See the screenshots here:
https://photos.app.goo.gl/avPsiHHrzPwpMqMC8
To change settings, change them according to your liking and hit the "Save" Button. It is the second from the bottom right and will be greyed out if your settings are currently applied.
As you can see in the following screenshot:
https://photos.app.goo.gl/qaFKfLbfwUuyHW717
Brightness Dimmer is enabled, FPS override is set to 144FPS on low brightness. Power button is blocked in pocket and screen gets disabled when putting the phone face down on a desk.
You should be able to find both apps for free on the CleanSlate thread. However if you benefit from the features, think about getting the premium apps on the playstore to give a little bit back to @tbalden.
I hope this post might help some
Excellent! Keep it up

U aswell... Both of you keep up the great job
This is amazing, can't wait for the others to try and read their reviews..
just a small heads up before anybody complains.
We, @tbalden and me, just noticed a bug went unnoticed during our previous testing.
If you flashed this kernel or CleanSlate-Kernel, have the CleanSlate config app installed and Backlight dimmer enabled in the CleanSlate Config app. Make sure to keep the screen on for 3-4 minutes after rebooting your phone and the boot process finished.
Otherwise your screen will stay black. Display-Panel driver doesn´t seem to like our mod at the moment.
After keeping the screen on for 3-4 minutes the bug will not be triggered and you can use the phone as you wish.
Sorry for the inconvenience
The issue will soon be resolved in a new update

Also just start the app manually on reboot, as a workaround.
Coming here from your OG Pixel kernel. Is this kernel for 2007.47 or 2007.32?

Nice to see you made the jump! Must be a hell of an upgrade on your side!
the .47 sources are merged. I´m using it on .47 at the moment.
I guess you can just give it a try and check if it boots/works on .32. If you decide to do so, it would be nice if you could report back here. It might help others
Make sure to have a PC with working fastboot environment nearby and a boot.img handy.
In case it doesn´t work, just force the phone to power down by holding power button plus volume down, once it powers off, keep holding power and volume up to boot to bootloader.
Connect to side port and flash your backup boot.img via fastboot. Always make sure to flash the matching boot.img for your firmware.
Hey guys and girls,
Here´s the fix that solves the black screen issue, that occurred when the screen was off while Brightness Dimmer got activated via CleanSlate Config App on boot.
It wasn´t detected immediately, because usually the screen of my device is on when I boot the phone as to check the logs and ensure everything is working
Now everything is working, so just flash the kernel and enjoy I´ll do a post soon, explaining the features a bit more for people unfamiliar with how the CleanSlate features work.
I´d advise everybody to read the instructions in the OP and follow them. They are written for a reason, because they ensure everything will be working as expected.
Kernel is made for the latest stock rom from Asus, you must update your phone to the most recent Asus update, before flashing the kernel.
Enjoy!

If you mean CN to Global ROM, Global has no China bloatware. If you mean 32 to 47, here the changelog from Asus website.
1.Added “Quick launch camera” option in System Settings->Advanced
2.Added “Navigation blocking” feature for Game Genie which disables system gesture operations to avoid accidental touches in games.
3.Improved multi-touch when three or more fingers simultaneously touch the screen in games.
4.Fixed a problem with insensitive multi-finger touch response when playing PUBG

Just to steer this a bit in the right direction. This isn´t directed towards anybody in particular it´s just a general reminder what this thread is about.
There is no need to review the kernel. The kernel offers exactly what is described in the first post of this thread.
My advice is to read the description in the OP. All changes are explained in great detail there. Look around XDA, most OPs are kept way shorter with less explanations.
If you´re not into technical details, use google when descriptions or terms are unclear to you.
This is primarily a development focused thread. That´s why it is in the development section.
If there are issues when using the kernel or its features, provide logs and I will be glad to help you. If there are questions or things unclear, ask and I will try to answer. But I expect people to put in a bit of effort.
If you expect a review like, flashing this kernel causes my phone to use more or less battery as the stock kernel, you may want to re-read the OP on what to expect. I generally don´t like to see this in my threads.
Just to give an example that a "review" will never be applicable to each user:
Everybody uses their phone different. So certain changes to the scheduler may benefit user A, while they don´t benefit user B.
There is no need for a review. Just flash the kernel and try for yourself.
It´s very easy and straightforward to flash the kernel. And it´s also easy to return back to the stock kernel. If you don´t like it describe your problem as detailed as possible, as pictured in the FAQ and I will take a look at it or consider it.
Usually post like: "this kernel reduces my battery life by xyz" will just be ignored
It´s covered in the FAQ how to do all of this.
This is also a general reminder to everyone Let´s keep this thread development related and I hope this will turn out to be a good project!
I´m really looking forward to it. This phone is an absolute beast and so far I really enjoy using it.
For people a bit unfamiliar how everything works I plan to soon post a little guide on how to use the CleanSlate features.
Have a nice day everybody.
Here´s a small tutorial for CleanSlate features:

Hopefully it will help some, that are not yet familiar with these.
I wish everybody a nice weekend.
Amazing work. Low battery temp while fast charging. Now I can just leave my phone with 30w charger without worry.
Do you have Telegram Channel?
I thought its not working after i flash but suddenly all the features is needed an app CleanState Config/Companion i downloaded it and it works the 144hz in 0 brightness nice2. i will use this kernel as my daily bases.
I turn on the facedown to table to turnoff the screen or vibrate but its not working for me.
Edit: Its working btw there is a 1 sec delay after facedown so far so good.
