[Development Stable][Kernel Adiutor-Mod][V15 - 26JUN2016] A modified Kernel Adiutor (Kernel Tweaking App)
This project has been deprecated. New development is happening at KA-Mod Reborn.
Code:
*** Disclamer ***
This app is intended to provide an interface to tweak the features of your kernel.
In no way is my offering of this app an invitation for you to ask me what the various
features included in your kernel do, or what settings are "best".
Ask your favorite kernel dev. Preferably by PM, repeatedly. They love that ;)
Introduction
This thread will be the home of my Kernel Adiutor-Mod. This project was previously known as "Singularity Kernel Adiutor". However, when that kernel project shut down I decided it was time to unbrand this app and birth it into a stand-alone project. Especially given the number of people on various devices who have began using it.
Note: This was original started for a Nexus 6 Kernel. I attempted to post it to the Apps Subforum there. It appears to have ended up in the general apps form. If something doesn't work correctly on your device, please let me know.

Installation instructions
This app has had it's installtion directory, app name, and package name change from the Original Kernel Adiutor.
This was not done in an attempt to disguise it as it's own app. It was intended to prevent conflicts if you choose to keep Grarak's Kernel Adiutor installed.

FAQ
Q. Will you explain what (insest awesome shiny kernel feature) does?
A. No, ask your kernel Dev.
Q. What settings are best for my kernel?
A. I don't know, I probably don't even run the same kernel as you do.
Q. What settings give the best battery life?
A. I don't know. I probably don't even run the same kernel as you do.
Q. What kernel do you run?
A. Does it really matter? It doesn't have anything to do with the app.
Q. Can I post my benchmark/battery screenshots on (insert super awesome kernel with tweaked settings) in the thread?
A. No. Benchmarks, and battery screenshots are thread garbage and should really have some sort of auto-deletion. Don't post them.... anywhere, ever, for the love of god.
Q. I found a bug, what do I do?
A. Provide as much information as possible and post in the thread. What feature? What didn't work? Can you provide screenshots to show how it's not working? Maybe provide a logcat, if the app is crashing. If you know the sysfs paths and expected values, those always help.
Q. Something that worked in the original Kernel Adiutor is broken here... Why?
A. I've modified/added quite a bit of code, it's not impossible that I broke something along the way even though it worked for me. Please provide whatever information you can (see previous FAQ item) so I can try to fix it.
Q. I was using this when it was known as Singularity Kernel Adiutor (SKA), what's the easiest way to switch?
A. I apologize, but you will have to reconfigure things when you make the switch (and uninstall SKA). I tried to figure out some way to move the app data over, but decided it wasn't worth the time. You can probably move profiles over from the old directory /data/data/com.singularity.kerneladiutor to /data/data/com.kerneladiutor.mod
Unfortunately, I won't help with this process. It'll either work or it wont.

Information for Devs/Advanced users
Kernel Download Support
I have modified this unbranded release so that Kernel Devs can add support (and override whatever is included in the app already) for their kernel's downloads by including /res/kernel_adiutor_mod/downloads.json in their ramdisk.
Why? Well... It removes the need for commits to add support for the kernels within the app. Want support? Add the file to the ramdisk. Next time that a user flashes the kernel, the app will display them with your downloads.
Information taken from Grarak's Wiki
The original app required the files to either be downloads.json to be compiled into the app, or in the app's data directory. I simply added the /res directory and made the priority /res > data dir > app's resources. So the information is the same.
/res/kernel_adiutor_mod/downloads.json
This file is static, once configured and added to the ramdisk it will remain valid unless you remove/move the link file. It will pull this file each time the dowloads section is opened, pulling in whatever changes you've made to the linked file.
For an example of the downloads link, check any of the ones included here as well as the example in Grarak's wiki. This file will be dynamic, any changes that you make to it will actively be pulled when users open the downloads section within the App once the static file has been added to the ramdisk.

How to post a bug:
1) Clearly document steps to reproduce the issue you've encountered
2) Collect logs
Lots of methods to do that
3) Go to https://github.com/yoinx/kernel_adiutor/issues and create an issue.
Post the steps from #1 and logs from #2
Answer these questions:
What did you expect to happen?
What actually happened?
What phone/os/rom are you running?
Do you have xposed framework installed?
I know what people are thinking.
"But Yoinx, feature xyz is missing. How can I get it added?"
Well, simple. Provide me with the sysfs path, the expected values/range, a title and description. If you do, I'll see what I can do to add it.
Use the feature request function of devdb and post saying that is the if you like. Don't just post it in the thread, if this thread ends up taking off (probably won't :s) then it'll get buried.
Awesome. I freaking love this KA Mod. Been using it for ages now.
I'm gonna take this for a spin , thank you for your work
This one works very well with my kernel and what i use personally...glad to have you around.. thanks @Yoinx
Awesome, thanks for posting this
Made for Nexus', so dare I ask if this will work on my S6 on 5.1.1 or 6.0.1?!

It'll work on anything that kernel Adiutor worked on. This just has additional features.
The reason I mentioned that I had originally built it for nexus 6 is because some sysfs paths may be device specific.

Crashes on Xperia Z2 - Lp 5.1.1
Attached a logcat of the crash. Mind checking it out? Would definitely love to give this mod a try.

Nevermind, its the way that I made it ask for permission, you're not on M... so that's why it's crashing. I'll have it fixed soon.
@iArvee would you mind testing this build? Let me know if it works. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911976954

No, you don't have to be on M. M just requires a different request for permissions in the app. I added the request, but I forgot to add an API check, as that check doesn't exist on anything below M... hence the crash.
Grarak checks for it somewhere else in the app. I just prefer to make it ask when you first open it.
Many thanks @Yoinx it works like a charm on my OnePlus One.

The developer of that project shut it down. So I decided to unbrand this app as well as make it easier for developers to add their own download support.
The reason I included the name on the title was for old users that might be searching for it.

No, I had explained to him from the beginning that I had no interest in maintaining a kernel... Hence why I hadn't put out my own.

BangL's UNOFFICIAL CM7.2-RC1 BUILD for p920/p925
Current build version: BangMod-beta16
Project stopped until it makes sense to continue...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24752098&postcount=27
NOTES
- Echo issue is not completely fixed but some ppl reported that they don't have the issue, so try out and report. good luck!
- This is an UNOFFICIAL build of CM7 ( CyanogenMod 7 ) for p920/p925 and this is NOT my ROM. I am just compiling from CM Source and 100% credits goes to TeamDouche, Ricardo Cerqueira and all the coders who contributed to CyanogenMod.
- This is similar to a nightly from CM but has some extra goodies baked in. If you can't handle some things possible being broken, please don't use this and then complain to me for building it.
- Wondering why its named "BangL's"? - usually i am "BangL", the name was just already used here
- This is still beta! Be careful and do backups before you use it! I am new to building ROMs and i don't even own a p920/p925 phone.

Thanks for your work. Is there a echo during calls in this ROM?
-----If it ain't working, try something else. ------
i dont really have the chance to test everything, cause i dont own a p920/925.
i got the one of my fellow-worker for one day, and i tested now the p925 variant on the froyo(v10k) baseband, and there is a kind of echo. -.-
the guy who calls you will hear himself more than he hears you.
now i will try the 920 variant on gb baseband ...
EDIT:
the p920 variant on the v21a baseband seems awesome. The calling quality is nearly the same as on my p990.
should also work nice on the p925 with a gb baseband
EDIT2:
hmmm.. it looks like there are still some issues with the prebuilt cm kernel for p920...
bluetooth and usb seems unstable.
i just put an experimental build online which includes some files out of stock firmware, i hope that this could fix echo calls. But it is also possible that it wont even boot up.
any volunteers?
EDIT:
wasnt working, building experiment #2
why does nobody report?

Hi,
I had tried to install the experimental one, but once have installed by recovery mode, decive doesn't start... It's like a bootloop but with black screen.
Before, had you said that the p920 versiona haven't got the echo issue?? For me, this is the principal issue from the CM7 roms. Can you confirm than this rom haven't got this issue?
Sorry for poor english.
Best regards.
PD: I'm on beta11, and i can't connect to my wifi, doesn't find it...

Yesterday we tested the p920 by one simple call, and it was better than with the p925 variant, but still not perfect.
So no, i absolutely cannot confirm this build haven't got this issue, but i really hope that i find any way to fix it. (it will be hard without having the phone)
Thats why i'm trying out some stuff with the experimental builds now. Can you check experimental2? it is up now.

i also noticed unstable wifi yesterday, but i got it working by enabling/disabling it some times.
I didnt know that this phone is so problematic at cm when i started building this. -.-
I will borrow the p920 of my working fellow-worker over the weekend, so i can start excessive testing.

Thanks for your work and effort. Gonna try experimental2.
ok. using cm currently makes no sense at p920/p925.
so i will freeze building until ricardo fixes the incall echo issues.
as far as i know he is on it, so just hang on.
i recommend to use ThiaiZ stock based rom until cm works well.

Hi,
In Rootzwiki, Ricardo said:
"I really have no idea of what the echoing is. I spent a ridiculous amount of time calling myself yesterday and can't find anything wrong with the voice quality on a P920 using the v21a baseband.
So... what's the device you have, and its baseband version? "
So i dont't think he had been working to fix the incall echo issue.... Have you talk with him? Do you ask him about it?
Another question, it's a noob question but, have you tried with another dialer if still having the incall echoing issue?
Thanks.
No, i didnt talk to him. I just read his rootzwiki posts before that one.
So he dont know about the issue, and he is not having it.
Well.. i also just have it in one way: for me the voice is completely fine, but the one who speaks to me is hearing himself more then he hears me. I also tested this alone, with two phones.
No, i didnt try with another dialer yet.
Ok i will compile now beta13 with latest changes, you guys could test again if you want and then report who have the issue and who not. please also tell us which baseband ure using.
maybe theres still a hope for the p920/925? we will see.

For me (like you) the issue is only in one way, the one who speaks with me ears his own voice more than mine.
Downloading the new rom fro try it... then report you.
Thanks
I'm running beta 11 P920 variant on AT&Ts P925 with v20c.
No voice echoing on my phone.
At least no one has said anything!
Been running for 24 hours, so far so good.:thumbup:
Sent from my CM7 Thrill
I have tried it, beta 13 with bb v20p and still having echoing issue.
In fact, i have installed two alternative dialers (DWcontacts and Exdialer) and this ones doesn't fix the issue.

Hi,
Have you make any change in the phone settings?
What envy
Dear Slim Users,
We proudly present our second stable SlimKat release. We would like to thank everyone involved with testing, improving and working with us these last few weeks to achieve the much anticipated SlimKat Stable 4.
Major key changes from SlimKat 3 are as follows:
Notification reminder: An easy way to quickly set short reminders to show on the notification drawer.
Slim Recents: A complete replacement of the AOSP recents screen to allow better multitasking, along with marking favourite apps.
Dialer: Introduced with SlimKat 3: forward lookup and reverse lookup of contacts. Sadly we needed to remove certain parts due to legal issues with the Google+ reverse lookup. An intelligent People lookup service has been added to replace this, along with several other enhancements.
Quiet Hours: Several tweaks and enhancements to make it more powerful than previous.
Lockscreen: Further color enhancements and options.
And of course tons of small changes, features, enhancements and fixes all over the firmware.
As well as the new features, we are proud to introduce 2 new devices, hlte (Galaxy Note 3) and falcon (Moto g). Moto g can be found in the weekly folder (in our opinion it is stable but we want to ensure stability across a wider range of devices rather than just our test devices )
NOTE:
For dirty flashers: Before you flash, you MUST wipe your system manually. Gapps has received major rework, and this way you ensure that nothing old will be left.
We highly recommend to flash the new gapps package!!!!
As usual read the changelog, install instructions and known issues below.
p3100, p3110, p5100, p5110 have delay and will be published as soon as possible.
Changelog
- links to weekly releases -
changelogs since stable SlimKat 3 release: 3.2 - 3.4 - 3.6 - 3.8 - 3.10
Framework: Fix LTE tile
Framework: SlimPie: turn on HA on highEndGfx devices
Framework: Add Landscape layout for ECA
Framework: Add support for QC's time_daemon
Framework: SystemUI: Remove broadcast from QH toggles
Settings: QuierHours service: call with qualified user and introduce controller
Settings: Fix possible illegal argument exception
Camera2: if camera HAL does not return valid picture formats do not show wrong values.
Device specific: several fixes and upstream. See attached changelog on the device download
Gapps: Complete rework of the gapps package. Update to Google Music, Google YouTube, Google PlayStore TRDS
Known issues
General
LTE tile: on clean flash if the first toggle of LTE tile does not work go into settings->more->mobile networks and set one time the network mode to 3g. After this the LTE toggle will work always as expected
National data roaming: If you tick the option in settings all entries get visually disabled although they still work. Do not worry about it and just re-enter the screen again and it is corrected. As long as SlimKat supports your provider this works as intended.
Device specific
hammerhead: NOTE: We switched back for the torch to sysf interface due that it works better. Keep in mind that a third party kernel needs to add a patch to prevent that if you used the torch one time new photos on the camera get over exposured. We notified the kernel developers already about this change. Some kernel already changed it (eg. Bricked kernel). All other you can expect the change for the next kernel releases. If your kernel does not support it for now do not use the torch (or if you used reboot) when you want to make photos.
i9300, n7100, t0lte: Due to different used camera controller chips some devices can still get flaky camera. We tried to cover as many devices as we could.
crespo, i9000: if the phone rings the dialer is sometimes slow. This is simply due to the new KitKat dialer and the fact it is a low end device.
i9100, n7000: on extended music play it can suddenly happen that the playback stops.
I love the ROM. It has been my ASOP ROM for some time. I love that it supports so many devices.
Here are some opportunities for this rom:
1. Must manually enable developer options. Can this be enabled by default?
2. Must manually enable root. Can this be enabled by default?
3. Default DPI results in text so small most people over 38 could hardly read it. To change it, one has to download a third party app.
A DPI changer should be built in.
I am having issues sending multipart SMS messages on my Nexus 5 using the messaging app and also 8sms (downloaded from the app store). Hangouts works fine for SMS. I am on Sprint and have tried every combination of carrier wipe/network mode.
But there is no rom for xperia sl,sadly

Hi, this is great build 4 specially music app added, I'm using it on nexus s however having issues on recent screen as swiping out if a recent app is less responsive as compare to last build 3. Every time I'm failed to swipe away all apps without few extra tries, is There there a trick to use it or a fix?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
mt6583
need a slim rom for mt6582 5inch fwvga 512ram there is no custom build for this type of mobile ram troubling too much
Highlights
Material UI - The app takes full advantage of API21's Material Design, and almost every part of design is made with those guidelines.
Minimalistic UI - Tried to make the app as user friendly as possible, however there may always be scope for improvement.
Set on Boot - The values of toggles get reset to default after every boot, so set on boot is a must to lessen users work.
Landscape Orientation - Why not let the app adapt to the widescreen view when device is rotated?
Support for small screens - Have a small screen device (dpi < 180)? No worries.
OTA Updater for certain devices - Lets you update your Zapdos Kernels easily.
Kernel Profiles - Lets you tune your kernel according to needs.
Notes
Root Access is required - If no root access available, app will close with appropriate toast.
Screenshots

Credits
showp1984 - Without his gesture drivers, the app would have been made for nothing.
thewisenerd and varun.chitre15 - For their help during app development.
StdBarbarossa - For testing purposes.

The kernel you are using must support wake gestures.
If it does support, still app closes, then let me know by linking to the kernel thread which you are using.

Waiting for remaining 2 features to be enabled!
Thanks Buddy For An AWESOME Kernel & Controlling App!
Hey @corphish I came across your app via zapdos kernel for moto e.. The app is great
I have some some suggestion or you can say some requests ...
Can you also add other gestures apart from d2w ,swipe etc. Like drawing alphabets likeO,V,E, etc to open apps
Like there is in one plus one
This app has that feature ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/yureka/themes-apps/app-gexture-enable-screen-off-gestures-t3104737 ) but it doesn't works on any other mobile than yu yureka
If you are successful in adding these features of gestures then I am sure that this app is a big hit...
And yes if possible please add this app to play store.. As it is not convenient to check XDA regularly for updates... And playstore automatically does that
Thnx for you work
1. Custom gestures like O,C etc needs to be supported in the kernel. Yureka supports it by default, in its own native way of coding, so difficult to port its gesture logic to others.
2. Triggering apps with gesture is something I will like to add.
3. Play Store, I need to buy a dev account, but I cannot coz I don't have bank account of my own (not eligible infact). Do not worry, everytime I update, I will let it known.
I am working on a cool feature as well.

Then can't be kernel be made supported for it , for eg, let say can't zapdos kernel for moto e get support for this gestures by doing required changes...
And for other developers who wish to incorporate these gestures in to there kernel using your app can't instruction be added for them in the first post ... Like there are instructoon for other kernel mods which different developers incorporate in there kernels like sound control...

Implementing those gestures is not impossible, however I need to code them all by myself.
Will think about showing hints for supporting dt2w in my app thread, however, dt2w implementation its not straightforward, highly device specific.

"This started as my personal project..I was looking to start something that was exactly what I wanted on my nexus 7 instead of either a rom with a bunch of features you need a search to find (not that there's anything wrong with that, just not my cup of tea), or too light where i needed a module to get it (not that there's anything wrong with that either). It is very early in, but I and my team are trying to make this a enjoyable project and keep it updated as best we can regularly. Keep it friendly, or GTFO.....Thanks guys..
Thanks to AOSP for the best base...SlimRoms for all the help...and anyone (person or team) who has helped me along the way."
BrokenPop is the Broken team's LP offering. the vast majority of the base is tracking from AOSP but there's much help from the hard working Slim team as well! Those guys kick ass. If you're looking for a clean, lean moderately themed LP offering, your search is over. More features will be built back in as we move forward but it's time to show you around the new Broken goodness.

FAQ
First of all, I am NOT the developer of this ROM, I was building it for my own use and with permission from BrokenOS Team I've decided to share my builds with you.
So please DON'T ask for features as I can't add them, also don't report bugs since this is an unofficial build and the chances to have them solved are minimal. Edit: Since 3.0 Milestone we got official support for our device. Reporting bugs should be done with a logcat attached.
I will try to answer some questions here in order to avoid issues
Q: I was flashing this ROM and now my phone is broken. What should I do?
A: NOTHING. Isn't that exactly what you wanted?
Q: I flashed this ROM and now I got into bootloop. What's wrong?
A: Most probably you're S-On and you forgot to flash boot.img in fastboot mode AFTER you flashed the ROM. There are many threads detailing the procedure, search for it.
Q: Will it be available for hboot 2.16 also?
A: NO. I am building this only for the hboot I can test on and I have no intention to switch to 2.16
Q: Does this ROM have root?
A: Yes, SuperSU is included and you can update it via Play Store when a newer version is out
Q: Flashed the ROM but I have the NavBar active. Our phone has hardware buttons and I don't need NavBar. Is there a way to remove it?
A: YES it is. You have 2 ways of doing this. Either go to Settings - Broken Pieces - Navigation and set Navigation bar height to 0dp or, edit build.prop in /system and set qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 or remove the line. EDIT: Starting 3.3 build this is no longer needed, NavBar is hidden by default
Q: After flashing the ROM, everything on screen is small and font can be barely seen. Can I change this?
A: Yes you can. By default, Broken has set 200DPI screens res. You can change this in Settings - Display - LCD density. You can also increase font size if needed
Q: I wanted to install Viper4Android, I made all the right steps but it is still not working. What can I do?
A: Viper4Android and other programs as well, need selinux to be set as "permissive". This ROM has it set to "enforcing" by default. You can change this setting by using a third party app from HERE. EDIT: Starting with build 2.7, ROM contains an selinux permissive/enforcing switch so there's no need for an external app anymore.
Q: Sound during calls seems to be low for me, what options do I have?
A: You can either modify snd_soc_msm_2x file located in /system/etc/snd_soc_msm or...you can use THIS file that I've already modified to increase the volume. NOTE: THIS IS NOT A FLASHABLE ZIP FILE. DO NOT FLASH IN RECOVERY. You should just extract the file in the zip and replace the one on your phone. Make a backup of the original file for safety
Q: GAPPS on Broken site are not updated frequently, can I use other GAPPS packages?
A: Theoretically any GAPPS package can be used as long as it is made for Android 5.1.1. Broken GAPPS are updated but not so often as others. If you're not satsfied. as an alternative, you can use TK GAPPS HERE
Q: Can I flash a custom kernel like IceCode, Mrak...?
A: You can but if having ANY issues you should revert back to ROMs kernel. I've tested Mrak and IceCode and both worked but that's not a guarantee they'll work for all.
Q: I've tried to customize the buttons but all I can see in that section is for customizing Home button. Aren't any other options yet?
A: They are, just they're not in the usual places you've got used with. You can assign "kill app" to Back button in Settings - Broken Pieces - Navigation. You can set "volume wake" (wake the device by volume buttons) in Settings - Broken Pieces - Volume keys.
Q: But I cannot assign the "menu" function to Recents button.
A: So what? Assign it to long-press Home
Q: I see there is a different recents screen in this ROM and I like more the "standard" Lollipop recents screen. Can we have that one instead?
A: YES you can. In this ROM, recents screen has 2 "styles" : standard Lollipop and Slim Recents. You can switch between them in Settings - Broken Pieces - Navigation - Recent apps panel. By default, Slim Recents is active.
Q: I've noticed that the Layers Manager is an older version, there's a newer one on Play Store. Can I have that one?
A: YES you can. You should first delete the existing Layer Manager application from /system/app (by using a root file explorer), reboot, then install the latest version from HERE. The entry in Settings will work with the new installed version.
Q: The Performance menu in Settings is using an older version of Kernel Adiutor, can I have the latest one?
A: YES, you can. Same as for Layer Manager, you should first delete the existing Kernel Adiutor application (by using a root file explorer), reboot, then install latest version from HERE. The entry in Settings will work with the new installed version.
Q: I found a BUG, what should I do?
A: Reporting bugs should only be made by including steps to replicate the bug and logcats. If those two are not included, such posts will be ignored and not even answered, sorry.
Q: The BrokenCenter in Settings has an OTA feature. Is it working for us too?
A: NO, it is not. OTA support was not yet configured for our device. The only way to upgrade is by the builds I will upload on AFH on the link provided in OP
EDIT: Starting 3.4 build, OTA functionality has been integrated and working. BrokenCenter is gone for now and you can check for updated software in Settings - About Phone - Broken Updates
Q: How often will you update this ROM?
A: The team is releasing it once per week, on each Saturday. The builds will be available each Saturday/Sunday.
Q: How long do you plan to build this ROM?
A: As long as I'll use it and I'll have this phone. There's no point for me to build a ROM, on a regular basis, when I don't use it. And of course as long as I won't have build errors that I cannot solve
Q: Is CM's Theme Engine supported in this ROM?
A: NO, BrokenPOP is using RRO/Layers. There is the BitSyko Development G+ Community HERE, where you can learn more and download Layers for this ROM. Theme layers are also available on Google Play Store.
Q: There is an annoying indicator when activating USB debugging in Developer Options and I don't find the option to turn off notification. Is there any way to hide it?
A: YES, the option is not present but you can edit build.prop (using a root file explorer) found in /system and add the following line persist.adb.notify=0
Q: There are several mentions above, about using a "root file explorer". What is that and where do I get it?
A: If you're asking this, you shouldn't even think to flash this ROM...really
Q: On other ROMs there were distortions and cracking noise while using a headset during a call. Is this happening in this ROM too?
A: NO. The reason for this was a setting found in build.prop file. It is about the persist.audio.handset_mic=digital entry and that should have been set to analog instead. This setting is properly set in the ROM so you're good to go.
Q: I don't find the option to enable Advanced Reboot Menu in Developer Options, Is there a way to activate it?
A: This is because it is not there. Look in Settings - Security - Advanced reboot instead...set it to Enabled
Q: I was checking the Advanced reboot option as instructed in previous answer and I found two entries labeled Disabled. What is that?
A: Guess what? You've just found a bug, they both do the same...Check the question related to finding/reporting BUGs for more info. EDIT: This is fixed from versioon 2.5
Q: I've activated the Advanced Power Menu in Security but still all I can see is Power Off entry. Where are other options like Reboot, Screenshot, Sound...?
A: After enabling Advanced Power Menu, you should go to Settings-Broken Pieces-Power Menu and choose which options do you want to be shown.
Q: The Power Menu is placed at the bottom instead the center of the screen. Why is that?
A: Because it's cool...and easier to access with one hand
Q: I just saw a "cool" feature in another ROM. What should I do in order to have it included in this ROM?
A: Pray for it! Features are added only by BrokenOS Team and only if they consider it worth it.

Thank you. It is not the first time, I've been experimenting a little until I built this one. I've built Candy and XenonHD before this to learn how to do it. The guys from Candy team were very helpful on that, without them I would have still reading how-to's now.

I know how the ROM works for me, I was just curious if others have flashed it too and if they like it. I can easily build it just for me if there's nobody interested
Sent from nowhere over the air...
Flashed it; no Gapps installed; noticing some lag when going through the settings and getting the minimizing keyboard. camera didnt work at first but started after cache and Dalvik wipe. Other than that, it is really nice Layers and ambient display, FM radio and Nova along with the gallons of other tweaks make it a very, very good Rom.
PS: I cant seem to get enough of the boot animation. Absolutely LOVE it!!! Keep hope alive @Rapier

But i understand. Sometimes you get no response and it looks like you are only building it for yourself. But people will appreciate it. They won't let it know so much though.....

My bad, should've send you a PM....when you'll come back there'll be a new version out I think and it already has some new things in it
SmoothMod Kernel (SMK) for Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 3G (SM-T311), also may work on WiFi version (SM-T310), all stock and CM ROMs.
Development discontinued, read reason here.
This kernel is developed to give you more smoothness and stability than you can have on stock kernel and others.
Warning. Kernel may work on your device/ROM and may not. For me it works at all ROMs and for many people (on 4PDA.RU forum) it works too. Some people say (or said before kernel worked, this also can be) it doesn't work. So do a kernel backup please before you flash it first time. I've never had boot or usage problems with SMK, but it could be because i'm its developer (though it can not be the reason for that I'm always successfully boot it..). So it seems that our devices of the same model might be different. Be careful as I can not help you.
Features:
- Kernel version updated up to 3.2.26 and keeps updating
- Safe CPU overclock to 1.9 GHz with CPU-Boost kernel driver developed also by myself
- Custom (and only here) governor Smooth that is made to give both good battery saving and absolute smoothness. Uses GPU load and io_wait to additionally increase frequency at the right time.
- Kernel has a custom Android service smkd that controls all its features and provides many tweakable settings that you can change very simply: through terminal command "smkd" (instructions below) or "by hands" at folder "/smk" (like usual linux kernel settings at "/proc/sys/{kernel|vm|net}"). The program is written in C language, not as a script, for performance (shell-scripts are very slow when comparing with optimized C-programs).
- Tweak Menu that can be found if you type 'smkd' in your terminal.
- SmoothnessControl - one of smkd's functions that tries to guarantee UI smoothness to your tablet even if there are very CPU-hungry (but not I/O) apps/programs running like android.process.media and others. By default disabled. To enable, type this: 'su -c "scd --enable"' in terminal emulator. To disable, type 'scd --disable'.
- CPU Undervolt controlled through smkd.
- DynBS program (also developed by me) used by smkd to improve battery saving by 40% and more.
- Boeffla Sound Engine with custom settings, not working with Boeffla Sound Control app because smkd controls them (it's needed because smkd fixes engine's sound effects bug). Settings are stored folder "/smk" in files beginning with "boeffla.".
- Cron scheduler configured from file /sdcard/cron/root.
- All the custom tweakable settings described upper are reloading instantly after you change them or on delete (cron schedule file is also under the same watch).
- Kernel is compiled with optimized HYPER-TOOLCHAIN with gcc version 6.0 and maximally optimized compiler configuration.
Customizing kernel:
There is now nothing that needs to be explained, as customizing is pretty simple! Just type command 'smkd' (without quotes) and go through the menu (by entering appropriate symbols) as you want, changing parameters as you need.
Ask, if you have questions
If you have questions or suggestions about my kernel, feel free to write about that here and I will try to answer.
F.A.Q.:
Q.: Do I need to wipe Dalvik/ART cache before/after flashing this kernel?
A.: It is even not useful to wipe caches because they are used by Android only, not by kernel. So, it's not needed.
Q.: The kernel does not boot! What do I have to do to boot it?
A.: Write a message in this thread providing info about what ROM do you use, what Android version it is and what kernel build (kk/lp/mm) and version you are trying to boot. I will reply to that message and try to fix that problem.
Author: me, igoryan94
Download from Google Drive
Before flashing this kernel please do a backup yours first!
Warning! If you have a Jellybean/Kitkat rom, then download the smoothmod-kernel-kk-... build. If you use Lollipop (CM12), then your build to download will be ...-lp.... If it is a Marshmallow (CM13), then download mm build.
Other choice will cause your device to not be able to boot!
(Sorry for my (maybe )bad english)
Plans:
-
Developing now:
-
Changelogs (old*):
1.2.1/1.2.2:
- Returned possibility to load a profile from command line (command 'smkd --load [name]' or 'smkd ld [name]')
- Added custom setting for apps CPU time, now it has two groups: idle and high.
Idle group gives an app very small amount of CPU time, use for hungry apps that you don't need.
High group grants an app a 95% of all CPU time. Use to speed up some apps or games.
It is all very similar to Greenify and others, excepting that this is not battery saving solution, only to smooth up your Android, as Greenify disables an app and CGroup lowers app's CPU execution time available to it.
- I/O settings fully rebalanced for smoothness for system processes and apps processes
- Also added control group for I/O that does like one for CPU, but for I/O and developed its correct (for Android) behavior.
- Current configuration name in smkd menu now correctly saves and loads after reboot.
- Default LMK level changed to 125
XDA->SMK:
1.2:
- Got a smoother UI with better CGroup tweaking
- In case of some situations smkd will notify user with drawing a small square of some color at the left upper screen edge (portrait orientation). For overheat the color is red. When SmoothnessControl gets to work, color is light blue/cyan. If device's load is too high, the color will be blue.
"Notification" will blink when screen updates because the framebuffer devices are not support this method of screen drawing. But it works for now and I think that it is very useful to know the reasons of device's lags and freezes.
- Menu now immediately reacts to input, instead of pressing some characters and then Enter. Modified all menus that way so the interface is now much better.
- When exiting menu, parameters are automatically saved to default profile. No need to care about it anymore...
- Added Quick settings also to RAM and I/O
- Main menu: moved all "p)" menu elements to main menu level, it is quicker to access now
- Some more Quick settings options added
- Added Quick settings to my menu templates, so I will add this to most of the new menus in the future
- Main Quick settings colors changed to blue, additional are still white
- Overclock to 1920 MHz lowered to 1800 MHz because 1800 is much more stable (1920 causes reboots on Marshmallow on my tablet)
- Device now reboots when charging speed is too bad. By default this is disabled. Also added setting "Charge cycle time" and Quick settings for that so you can quickly set up to what charge speed you need (reboots are helpful but not very good for users that want to play device when it charges).
- 'Boost' feature disabled so now DynBS will work as always even when device is laggy
Previous:
1.1.22:
- CPU, Boeffla Sound and Network setting menus in smkd now have the Quick settings feature that helps to configure them by one click instead of tweaking them each
1.1.21.1:
- DynBS updated: now it uses frequencies from 350 to 700 MHz too, so more battery can be saved.
1.1.21:
- smkd now has menu interface which opens by default by command 'smkd' without options.
- All setting commands are removed. Use menu instead.
- In Cyanogenmod ROMs SystemUI is restarted every time when screen becomes disabled, so you may never see it lags or freezes again.
- PCS renamed to SC (SmoothnessControl).
- Overclock enables when device is laggy even when it is disabled in settings
- Redone temperature control: now smkd monitors a device temperature instead of CPU. It leads to better smoothness. Also overheat situations disable some functions like I/O readahead, ZRam, KSM.
- Overheat prevention function fully removed
- Governor Smooth now enables both cores on gestures with two or more fingers instead of simple tap.
1.1.20:
- Added charging compensation: now when battery charging is too slow, CPU Topology and voltage will be changed appropriately for quicker charge.
- Touch boost changed from 1400 to 1000 MHz, but it also boosts busfreq to 400 instead of 267 MHz. Results in better reaction on screen touch.
- Governor Smooth's default sampling_rate changed from 27000 to 16000 for quicker reaction
1.1.19:
- Added ARM CPU Topology for better multithread scheduling
- Some CPU Scheduler changes for smoothness or power saving (tweakable)
- Improved smkd UI code
1.1.18.1:
- Fixed performance/smoothness problems.
1.1.18:
- Added new default configuration "throughput"
- GPU acceleration is now forced for all apps and it is changeable from smkd.
- I/O scheduler SIOPlus added.
- DynBS is returned (one user asked for it as it really saves battery, as he said).
1.1.17:
- User profiles are no more exist, replaced with default configurations" instead. They are: smooth, battery, ram and cool. After each launch of smkd (mostly on reboot) configurations are removed and recreated to always be fresh and up to date.
- Added ability to create, rename and delete profiles by normal way, but default profiles cannot be replaced, deleted or renamed through smkd (only "by hands").
- GPU settings: composition and forced GPU-acceleration from Android settings for developers.
- Tripndroid and Zen I/O schedulers are added.
1.1.16.1:
- Configurations loading is now be always successful (but only if appropriate file exists), without that annoying errors "try again later, please..."
- Small tweaks optimization
1.1.16:
- Overclock now disabled by default, as it was on 1.1.14 and before, for battery saving (overclock eats too much battery). Can be enabled with command 'smkd -c -o 1'. Temperature control is now optimized for both CPU overclock and hardware maximal frequency modes.
- smkd interface improved a little.
- KSM functionality added with some fixes for Mali GPU driver bugs in userspace.
- Default temperature limit is now 64 C (before it was 67 C). This is done for more stability when the weather is hot.
- Some changes for smoothness and stability...
1.1.15:
- Overclock is enabled now for any time when screen is enabled (no more boost).
- Developed overheat preventing functions that cool device when temperature is between 90% of threshold and higher. CPU frequency will be set according to temperature for the moment (for every 2% will be a different frequency). Function can be disabled but it is not recommended.
- All cooling functions now control voltage too to be more effective.
- Governor Smooth tweaked for more balance (oc_nr_run_threshold->6)
- Governor Smooth: changed logic: half-overclock (to 1.7 GHz) will occur if number of processes running is a half of oc_nr_run_threshold tunable.
- smkd now controls I/O scheduler and I/O readahead settings, they are tweakable with smkd command. Profiles change this parameters too.
1.1.14:
- smkd tweaker program fully translated to english and comes now in two languages. Now it uses Android's property 'persist.sys.language'.
If your device configured for any language excepting russian, then program will be in english for you. At the other case it will print out text and messages in russian.
- Improved custom configurations in smkd. Now it loads profiles synchronous with service (by using mutex) instead of relaunching it with shell stop/start (it was too slow and even buggy to do that).
- DynBS will not be in kernel anymore, it is not so effective as needed. Instead, I've added a profile tweaks for my governor Smooth, that tweaks easily changeable from smkd (cmd. "smkd -c -s [0-2]").
1.1.13:
- Cron scheduler now works correctly (i'm happy ), doing exactly what was scheduled by the user at the exact times.
- I don't remember what was in this version because forgot this as I worked on 1.1.14 intensively.

Looks like it will not work on AICP ROM, on Cyanogenmod 13 and ResurrectionRemix kernel works fine (I've tested that)... Sorry The reason for that I can not fix this problem is that I do not know (even cannot know) how to make an init.rc (this file starts all Android services on boot) file universal (to support absolutely all ROMs at one time). This is also the reason for three builds of kernel: kk, lp and mm...
Nice kernel. But can you please make a version of your kernel work with the T310 (WiFi)?

I can't as i don't know much about modding in '/init.rc' script and also about what differences it has in kernels for T310, T311 and T315... Sorry.
There are too much incompatibilities with builds that are now (they must work everywhere but they don't)...
Ok. Added one question to poll. There are three variants for ROM and two for working or not (six at all), for me all works fine, so I voted for the first three answers.
Version 1.1.14 developer testing ends now, smkd fully translated to english. I will now build the kernel and then begin uploading it to Google Drive.
(sorry for my incorrect english)

waiting for update..
Hey @igoryan94,
Thanks a lot for making this great kernel!
I've flashed the KK version along with the stock ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789510. It works very nicely. Would you please show an instruction (or a specific terminal command for newbies like me) of how to overclock CPU to 1.9GHz? Currently the max speed is 1.5Ghz according to kernel audit.
Thanks again
Hey I cant change the cpu frequent through kernel adiutor. As soon as i change the freq to 1920 it changes back to 1500.

CPU frequency is automatically changed to 1920 MHz when special conditions are met (they are: "blocked" processes and waiting for I/O).. Version 1.1.5 will have full 1920 MHz CPU frequency.
I will now upload "developer" version of kernel 1.1.15_dev for KitKat users. If you want, test that) It is not fully contains all changes that i've done, but I'm not at home now and cannot compile new build... For now it has smooth overheat prevention and overclock fully enabled.

Please wait for SMK version 1.1.15, it will use 1920 MHz as a default frequency always excepting overheat moments (that will disapear very quickly) and governor's battery saver mode.
You can also use a developer version 1.1.15_dev if you use JellyBean/KitKat as your ROM.
Ok, "dev" version released for testing.
When I will return home, I will release another testing version that has an I/O scheduler change functionality, optional Overheat Prevention and changing min_freq to minimal (50 MHz) when temperature event occurs. Maybe it will have even more features (I have smkd code with me, PC is only needed for compiling kernel and ramdisk).
on NoleKat.T310. v1.1 KK 4.4.2 not boot. on CM13 it's ok, but, for me, the best android versioni for this tablet is kk stock and i install NoleKat.T310. v1.1.
