[DISCONTINUED][KERNEL][G906S/K/L][4.4][5.0] Lolliwiz Kernel R10 [Sep 8]

This post can be updated anytime.
For korean support and for those who can translate Korean, visit my blog:
http://kykint.tistory.com/
Download TWRP Recovery v2.8.7.0 for G906SKL
/* Requirements */
* Galaxy S5 broadband LTE-A (SM-G906S, G906K, G906L)
* Samsung stock firmware or Dokdo-projct
- Kitkat: ANK1
- Lollipop: BOG2 for G906K, BOH1 for G906S/L
* Custom recovery (Philz, TWRP, etc)
/* Note before using */
* Backup important data before installing
* Upon installation, every warranty inclusing KNOX becomes void
* I, kykint, am not responsible for any inconvenience or problems that occur while using this kernel
* Only one hotplug driver should be on (mpdecision, intelli_plug, alucard_hotplug, lazyplug)
Lazyplug is currently not supported on kernel customizing applications. Wait until their developers update.
* Dokdo-Project version of lolliwiz is highly experimental. Don't complain about battery drain.
It also does not support uninstaller yet.
/* About new installer */
Since Release 9, the installer will automatically extract your device's ramdisk, merge it with lolliwiz kernel, and then install it.
Upon installation, if a backup folder (/system/lolliwiz-bak) is found, it will automatically restore it first and then continue installation.
It will backup original boot.img and sensors library to the backup folder (/system/lolliwiz-bak) while installing.
There might be some problems regarding this new installer, so please keep the following instructions in mind.
* When installing another variant's ROM, do not install lolliwiz right after flashing ROM.
Install the stock kernel of your variant, and then install lolliwiz.
* Those who have been using R8 or older version of lolliwiz must flash stock kernel first before installing R9 or later.
* Do not install stock kernel when lolliwiz is installed on your device.
Only install stock kernel when uninstaller fails to remove lolliwiz and restore to stock kernel.

LW-G906-R*_F2FS.zip : for F2FS users
/* F2FS Conversion Manual */
Refer to the 2nd post.
/* Chatters */
Release 9 and 10 are mostly bug fix releases, so there isn't much difference.
Kitkat support has been put off to R11, and if a bug is found again and R11 happens to be released early, it will be put off to later release again.
Still, I'm considering EOL of kitkat version as it is becoming harder to support the old Linux version.
/* Contacts */
You can contact me through telegram @maplezeon, but I won't listen to complaints.
On weekdays I'm mostly at school, from 7am to 10pm, so there's no much time for chats.

F2FS Conversion manual
/* F2FS Conversion Manual */
(for LP and Dokdo-Project only, no KK support)
(Not tested on Dokdo-Project)
I will not add any additional explanations about F2FS, since this is a very risky task and recommended only for experts,
and since not knowing about F2FS means that you're not one of them.
Cautions
1. Conversion process of /data partition and filesystem will wipe away every single data in your device,
so every data in internal sdcard should be backed up on your PC.
2. Flashing /cache partition image when the device has already been converted to F2FS will format /cache partition to EXT4,
so manual conversion process of /cache partition to F2FS must be done again.
3. The /cache partition image mentioned above is included in stock firmware package, so be careful when installing stock firmware
4. Inside stock firmware is included a stock kernel which only supports EXT4, so again, be careful when installing stock firmware
5. /data and /cache partition must be set to the same filesystem, both EXT4, or both F2FS
6. I personally recommend that every process be done using my TWRP recovery, which will be posted in a seperate thread later.
7. The F2FS version of kernel zip has a '_F2FS' tag at the end of its filename, while EXT4 has nothing.
Be careful, Dokdo-Project version supports both EXT4 and F2FS, so they're not seperated,
and when converting to F2FS on Dokdo-Project, you can skip kernel switching(reinstalling) process.
How to change filesystem on TWRP
Wipe > Advanced Wipe > (Select a partition) > Repair or Change File System > Change FIle System > (choose between EXT4 and F2FS) > Swipe to Change
* It takes a great amount of time when changing to EXT4, up to several minutes.
How to check current filesystem on TWRP
Wipe > Advanced Wipe > (Select a partition) > Repair or Change File System
and you'll see your current filesystem on the upper part of the screen.
Converting to F2FS
0. For stability, flash uninstaller first if you already have lolliwiz installed.
1. Install F2FS version of Lolliwiz. (_F2FS.zip)
2. Change the filesystem of /data and /cache partition to F2FS.
3. Reboot into recovery mode again.
Back to EXT4
0. For stability, flash uninstaller first if you already have lolliwiz installed.
1. Install EXT4 version of Lolliwiz.
2. Change the filesystem of /data and /cache partition to EXT4.
3. Reboot into recovery mode again.
Installing stock firmware on F2FS
1. Reboot into download mode and install stock firmware with odin as usual.
2. When the installation finishes, it'll automatically reboot into recovery mode and flash CSC package.
Wait until androboy disappears and the device reboots again.
3. Reboot into download mode again.
4. Install my TWRP.
5. Reboot into recovery right after installing.
6. Install F2FS version of lolliwiz.
7. Format /cache partition to F2FS
8. Run factory reset if needed. This is an option.
9. Reboot.
If the device won't boot even if you carefully followed all of the above instructions, repeat the process again.
Thanks
Thanks I was on the Korean forums yesterday trying to translate lol.
I noticed there's a test for b5. Giving it a try.
One issue I seem to have on b4 and 5 test is that no matter what kernel tuning app I use if I turn off mpdecision and intelliplug on, after a reboot mpdecision always comes back on.

Kernel settings are set to defaults on each reboot and the default setting on hotplug is mpdecision on, intelli_plug off. That's why every kernel app has the ability to restore previous settings after reboot. Try enableing them, kernel adiutor works fine for me

Thanks, but I told it to save settings. It's weird as all the settings were saved, including intelliplug on, but mpdecision was turned on as well. I'll uninstall it and start again!

Nice to hear it's working well now.
I don't get donations, maybe you could donate to the REAL developers out there, they're always working hard for us XD
Very interesting!
I'm reading the Asian forums since a week and I have found that this kernel is well used.
How can I flash back stock kernel if something happens? And where can I find stock kernels??
If they are unavailable, I'd like to make my own Odin tar.md5 files for flashing stock kernel.
Can I follow the script/batch procedure (found here on Xda) that produces the tar.md5 flashable files?
Tnx!!

Good!
I'm following the Asian forum where I've found this kernel and related config app, from which I've read that there's a modified version of the app....And for this please give me some infos.
I'm also searching for some interesting custom rom as I see there are some, like the KingWolf one or the Milan one.
Any help on using this kernel with some roms?
Tnx!

I uploaded lollipop stock kernels for both recovery and odin. I'll upload for kitkat as well when I get the latest kitkat firmware.
Sorry, this might be a dumb question, but I'd rather ask it then brick my only smart-phone:
I'm currently on miscom's ROM (see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/galaxy-s5-g906-custom-rom-t2848569)
Also using Philz recovery
How do I get to the Lolliwiz Kernel safely? Can I keep my apps, settings and so on?
Again, sorry. This is my first android phone (but certainly not the last one!) and I'm pretty clueless... But getting the miscom kernel on it was pretty easy with a bit of reading...

Make a backup of whole apps with TitaniumBackup first, then backup system, data, boot in philz recovery(run custom backup) and flash stock lollipop through odin. miscom's rom is 4.4.2 as I know of, and my kernel supports 5.0.1 only at the moment.
If your phone bootloops after flashing lollipop, factory reset through philz and restore apps from TitaniumBackup, or flash back stock kitkat firmware and then restore system, data, boot in recovery.
Note that flashing stock firmware will blow away your recovery and you should manually install it again with odin. Also, factory reset through philz will preserve your internal sdcard but stock recovery WILL NOT.

[KERNEL][STOCK 4.4.2][D295] KitKatExtended Kernel for L Fino

I compiled this kernel using linaro 4.8 toolchain from official LGE-D295 kernel sources and adding these some features:
Added CPU underclock to 249 & 192 Mhz (default CPU freqs is 0.3-1.2 GHz, so you need to set up underclock in Kernel Auditor)
Added support for FAST CHARGE function (disabled by default - for enable use Fast Charge)
Default governor changed to ondemand
Default I/O sheduler changed to CFQ
Added new CPU governors: interactive, conservative, pegasusQ
Added some new I/O shedulers: BFQ, SIO, SIOPLUS, FIOPS, FIFO, VR, ZEN.

In plain language
DO NOT STEAL MY SH*T !!
UpInTheAir is NOT responsible, the person you see in the mirror is !!
REQUIREMENTS:
Supported variant only !!
Touch Wiz Android M 6.0.1 ROM or UX leaked firmware (beta support)
Appropriate custom recovery (i.e..TWRP for your variant)
INSTALLATION & UPDATE:
If you have Synapse installed = = you must clear Synapse app data before flash !!
Device Settings: Enable Developer Options > OEM UNLOCK is ENABLED
Boot into custom recovery (volume UP + home + power)
DO NOTHING but flash SkyHigh kernel.zip (ALWAYS flash again AFTER any custom ROM installation, system or data wipe)
After flash == DO NOTHING but REBOOT IMMEDIATELY from TWRP or you will have to re-flash !!
CONVERT EXT4 TO F2FS FS:
If not already, install the latest TWRP for your device variant (ie. 3.0.2-2). This must support F2FS.
Boot into TWRP.
Insert USB-OTG
** ALL DATA WILL BE WIPED FROM INTERNAL STORAGE (restored later)
Backup (copy) all important files (incl. your NANDROID) off device (ie. from internal storage > USB STORAGE). This can take a while. Advanced > File Manager > .....
Home > Backup > Select Storage > USB Storage > OK > "Swipe to Backup" (Only need DATA, but recommend to backup all partitions).
Install > Select Storage > USB Storage > OK.
Select f2fs.zip > "Swipe to confirm flash" (This will WIPE ALL DATA !! & convert DATA & CACHE to F2FS. System is not supported by kernel).
Check the box to remember setting and “Swipe to allow Modifications”.
If you do not have Step #8, then Data was not converted to F2FS.
Mounts > unchecked both Cache & Data. Repeat Step #7 & 8.
Restore > Select Storage > USB Storage > OK > Select TWRP Backup folder > DATA ONLY !! > "Swipe to Restore" (ignore warning about EXT4).
Home > Install > Select Skyhigh_kernel.zip > "Swipe to confirm Flash".
Home > Mount > USB STORAGE > uncheck/unmount (then remove USB-OTG).
Home > Reboot > SYSTEM.
Wait ~2-5 mins for boot.
Once booted, let stabilize for ~5 mins.
You can check Data & Cache F2FS FS status in either /proc/mounts or Synapse app (FS section).
Use a root type explorer (su permission) & navigate to /sdcard, and delete the "0" folder.
Move (copy) your backed up files from Step #4 to internal storage (/sdcard). This can take a while. Maybe one folder at a time is better?
ISSUES ?
If using TWRP MTP mode, deleting some folders/files may crash TWRP and cause corruption. Instead, use a root type file explorer to delete from device.
If you need to wipe data, then use the ext4 or f2fs.zip, otherwise this is not possible with this TWRP !!
Not tested any method with customized ROMs. The ROM installer script may re-format partitions back to EXT4 or not mount correctly causing TWRP crash or corruption. I can only suggest to Flash ROM with EXT4 FS > make a NANDROID on USB-OTG and then follow the F2FS steps above.
CONVERT F2FS TO EXT4 FS:
The Same steps as above, but use the ext4.zip !!
OPTIONAL SYNAPSE INSTALLATION:
After boot:
Wait at least 120 secs to stabilize
Install Synapse app from Google Play and rate it ☆☆☆☆☆ !!
Open Synapse
Tap "Understood"
So changes stick every time you start Synapse == Make any change & 'apply'.
Recommend: Disable KNOX with Synapse
DOWNLOADS:
** I will NEVER support KOREAN (S/K/L) variant. Get over it and flash ARTER kernel instead !! **
Mod Edit: Link removed.
BUGS:
Aroma Installer: 10% of installation will encounter Aroma installer "freeze". It's only the display that freeze, the script still execute in the background. Just wait a minute, then press slightly to the top right 'home' key / top left of the 'back' key . . .

FAQ & HELP
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE:
I might not have your device variant and or able to reproduce your "issue".
Please provide as much information as possible.
Without resetting your device to a stable unmodified baseline, any potential troubleshooting or logs could be meaningless.
So please follow the guidelines set out below. Users can't "read minds".
Without providing important information, we are unable to help YOU.
Search thread, XDA and Google before posting
Provide as much information as possible.
- Device model
- Firmware version
- ROM name / version
- Kernel version
- Modem version
- Bootloader version
- Synapse settings (try default)
- Installed tweaks and apps etc (Xposed ?)
- The exact steps you've taken to try resolve the issue yourself.​
Exact steps to reproduce the issue. Provide screenshots if able.
Does it work with older / other versions etc
Reset your device to a stable baseline (ie. stock) with only custom TWRP recovery and kernel (FULL WIPE: system, cache, dalvik-ART)
Possible logs
FAQ & HELP:
CAN I BUILD A KERNEL FOR YOUR __XX DEVICE ?
Sorry. I don't have the spare time for any more variant support.
Additionally, I do not build for any device that I can not compile using SAME source, personally test method or debug. Some device variants can compile with same source.
CAN I INCLUDE SkyHigh KERNEL IN MY ROM
NO == My ramdisk modifications are COPYRIGHT (refer LICENSE in Post #2), and distribution without MY (UpInTheAir) prior written consent is not only in a breach of that license, but also XDA Rule #12)
Although I do appreciate your contribution, if you could please do not include my kernel in any ROM package etc. This policy goes for anyone.
Having my kernel distributed outside my development thread just removes a lot of credit and more importantly, constructive user feedback that could be helpful to my development or user issue.
ALWAYS on DISPLAY (AoD)
I have spent some time to attempt port S7 display drivers to our kernel, but haven't had success as yet with too many errors.
TBH, it's a lot of work for something I'm not really interested in or would use. . . so I don't wish to spend any more of my own time on it, sorry. If someone else does it, GREAT
DO I "NEED" SYNAPSE
THERE IS NO "NEED" !!
It is "recommended", which is OPTIONAL, and not "needed".
It is for ADVANCED or adventurous users who wish more control of their device or use various features I've added.
Using any other optional tweaking or control app may conflict & many features and options won't be available.
WHY WAIT 120 SECS
The kernel and Synapse scripts need time to boot up properly and allow SU permission.
There are scripts / code that have a deliberate delay and must run after Synapse. These are not user optional.
Synapse has a stability check on boot. You may get "synapse boot cancelled".
Thermal throttling will be trying to limit many things, let the device settle
OTHER PARTY CAN NOT HEAR VOICE ON SPEAKER PHONE
It could be a conflict in the system/etc/mixer_*.xml. I don't know for sure, but if I exclude the sound mod, then this "fixes" the problem.
As I cannot reproduce the issue (and the majority), then the audio mod stays.
Unfortunately, making it optional would require to build kernels without and create much more work for many device I don't actually use.
Either live with it, or use another kernel. Sorry.
"NO UCI SUPPORT"
It's a ROM busybox compatibility issue !!
Re-flash kernel as per Installation Instructions. (kernel install zip flashes proven busybox binary to /system/xbin)
BACKUP / RESTORE ISSUES
It's a ROM busybox or sqlite3 compatibility issue !!
Re-flash kernel as per Installation Instructions. (kernel install zip flashes proven busybox binary to /system/xbin)
BACKUP & RESTORE
DO NOT restore profiles from different kernel version
Refer to THIS post for "how-to" screen-shots
Refer to THIS post for a "how-to" video
LOADABLE MODULES AREN'T WORKING
Check your /system/lib/modules directory. Are any ____.ko present?
Did you flash a ROM or wipe the system partition at any point? Doing this will remove them !
Re-flash the kernel will install the modules.
If modules aren't installed after flash, then re-flash and manually mount system in recovery first.
You can check running modules in terminal with:
​lsmod

CPU POWER CONSUMPTION

F2FS SUPPORT
It's not needed. You wouldn't see any difference or measure much, if anything. Not worth the potential trade-off. This is not eMMC anymore
Storage Benchmarks
STUCK ON SAMSUNG BOOT LOGO AFTER FLASH
Ensure you flashed the correct kernel for your device model
Ensure your download is not corrupted. Check MD5 hash or re-download
Your current base firmware (ROM, boot-loader version etc.) may be incompatible - UPDATE to latest with Odin and try again.

BATTERY TIPS (require updating !! )
Try some (or combination) of the CPU MULTICORE features in Synapse:
HMP profile = Default (values are battery orientated)
Power Aware Scheduling (slight performance cost) = Enabled
HMP LITTLE Packing (slight performance cost) = Enabled
PEWQ (power-efficient workqueue) (slight performance cost) = Enabled
Set A57 & A53 Interactive governor profile = Battery
Set Input-Booster for key/touchkey profile = Battery
Multi-tasking: enable UKSM & "low" or "quiet" profile (slight performance/battery cost)
PERFORMANCE TIPS (requires updating !! )
Set A57 & A53 Interactive governor profile = Performance
Set A57 & A53 Interactive governor = Turbo Mode (battery cost)
Set HMP threshold profiles = Stock or Performance
Once in a while:
Optimize Databases
FSTrim​
RANDOM REBOOT
Don't UV or UC CPU or GPU
Use SkyHigh defaults
Use a stock UNMODIFIED ROM for your device variant
No tweaks, Xposed or other CPU control apps installed
Follow the TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
ASV_GROUP (ALL DEVICES ARE NOT CREATED EQUAL)
THIS is an example from my Exynos5420 source. Similar idea for Exynos4
DOWNLOAD LINK NOT WORKING
I want to keep this project all in one place - ☆☆ NO MIRRORS ☆☆
Please try again in a few minutes
POOR CPU/GPU BENCHMARK or GRAPHICS PERFORMANCE
Disable any CPU MULTICORE options in Synapse
Disable any Battery profiles in Synapse. Set to default or Performance.
Allow the device to cool. Repetitive testing will heat the device hardware and invoke thermal throttling and lead to decreased benchmark.
HIGH CPU/GPU OC == excessive heat == thermal throttling == reduced clock frequency == DECREASE PERFORMANCE
DYNAMIC MANAGEMENT OF DIRTY PAGE WRITEBACKS
by Christopher83
This feature allows to have two different intervals for dirty page writebacks and to dynamically manage them when the system has been resumed (it's active) or when has been suspended.
Three new procfs parameters are exposed inside /proc/sys/vm path:
dynamic_dirty_writeback is the activation status of this feature, set 1 to enable it, set 0 to disable it and use the standard behaviour
dirty_writeback_active_centisecs is the interval for the dirty page writebacks when the system is active (screen on)
dirty_writeback_suspend_centisecs is the interval for the dirty page writebacks when the system is suspended (screen off)
This feature is in part inspired on Francisco Franco's PATCH
TCP/IP NETWORK SECURITY

CHROMECAST - STREAMING PROBLEMS
Lock screen MUST be enabled (simple screen lock swipe) I don't know why but it breaks the chromecast app's ability to resume smoothly if switched off
Synapse > Network > DTIM (both screen ON & OFF) = 1
Synapse > Network > WIFI Power Mode (screen OFF) = FAST
@UpInTheAir needed to create these threads to compile them for Synapse. He contacted me to close these as soon as he made them until he is ready with the finished product. Have patience.
Also I would like to apologize to UITA as the last ban may have been due to a system glitch where the signature was restored upon return, so was unjust. I have seen these glitches before and better communication might have prevented the error. We will do better going forward!
SkyHigh KERNEL REBORN - v5.6 released !!
SkyHigh KERNEL REBORN - v5.6 released !!
Hi fellow members.
Please find my latest release for SkyHigh kernel. There are many many changes, both visually (more / improved features) and a upgraded engine (better performance & efficiency) since I last publicly released. Far too many to talk about. . . .
And no - it DOES NOT fix call audio issue with leaked UX ROM. I believe it to be a ROM issue n!
Please note that although I have taken as much care in building and testing by my friends and I, the kernel may still not perform as hoped for you. Could be due to various factors including (but limited to):
hardware quality
firmware installed (incompatibility)
user habit (how you use the device)
apps & mods installed, customization's (conflicts)
user kernel settings (read them carefully - if in doubt == defaults)
As noted in Post #3, I may not have your device variant and not be always able to help either. In the end, sometimes SkyHigh is just not meant for you . . . .
If you have issues = = READ & FOLLOW ALL Posts #1-3
READ & FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION INSTALLATIONS EXACTLY (or else device will not boot)
Also please note (as per OP) the support for UX based ROMS is still in beta. I have personally tested very briefly, and also some of my friends (not all variant)
Enjoy
UITA

From your history, seems you're never happy with anything.. .
THREE options:
1. Read and follow what's requested of YOU top of Post #3.
2. Use a different kernel
3. Use stock
Anyone using a Grace UX rom with this kernel and if so can you link me one that's working? Been wanting to try it out.

*** Be aware, there may be a need to wipe data if you desire to go back to stock kernel, my suggestion is to backup your stock BOOT partition and DATA before flashing. This way you can return to your original setup easily. It is unknown at this stage what data is causing an issue going back to stock. If you find it, be sure to share.
* You must have bootloader unlocked and rooted your device with Magisk before flashing this kernel. Magisk is essential for camera and wacom.
* Boot times are approx 60-75sec at the moment, itll sit on the yellow triangle splash for approx 60sec and the bootanimation for 5sec.
* When flashing this kernel, an AnyKernel helper module is installed. This is a Magisk Module that is essential for the operation of Camera and Wacom. Removal of this module while running this kernel will break camera and spen.
* Kernel zip labels have either a P or E in them, P=Fully Permissive, E=Enforcing (switchable)
To install
download and flash the kernel installer zip in TWRP or any custom recovery

How is it working ?
Hey, any idea if you are going to produce something similar for the exynos version (o1s)?
I have extracted the config from my exynos S21 (https://gist.github.com/wolverine2k/f647be12fbdf95ad8beec416f107772b)
What compiler you used?
