Customization
Since the whole point of installing a custom kernel is to have more options available to you, here is some information regarding the tweaks available in the kernel.
Default settings: the phone will boot with the following settings (the ones I recommend sticking with if you are not into tweaking):
Governors: interactive on both clusters
Frequencies: 384-1440MHz on little and 633-1824MHz on big
Input boost: 1248MHz on little and 768MHz on big for 40ms
core_control on, msm_thermal off
Wake gestures and backlight dimmer disabled
Adreno Idler enabled
Sound controls set at 0
ZRAM enabled and UKSM disabled
zen at 128kb
Governor profiles: If you want to try and squeeze a little bit more battery life out of your phone or increase performance, you may consider exploring governor profiles. Below are some links to various posts containing links/descriptions of these profiles:
From @soniCron - HawkTail, GlassFish, and FairPark
From @Alcolawl - list of profiles
Virtual memory: I have implemented ZRAM and UKSM in the kernel and there are many ways to tweak these. I would only recommend messing with vm_swappiness but you can read about ZRAM tunables here and UKSM tunables here. To make the kernel use more or less ZRAM, type this in a terminal emulator (or change it in EX Kernel Manager under the Memory section):
Code:
echo # > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
This number can be between 0 and 100. 0 will make the kernel swap to ZRAM only if there is an out of memory error, 100 will make the kernel swap to ZRAM as much as it can. I set it at 15 by default, I would set it to 1 if you don't want to use it as much as 1 will use the minimum amount possible (basically when the phone is super under load). Highest I would go is 60 (which is the stock/default value in the Linux kernel). Read more about swappiness here. Additionally, UKSM is disabled by default. You can either enable it with EXKM or echo 1 to the sys path /sys/kernel/mm/uksm/run
Frequently asked questions
1.1 Q: I am having an issue, can you help me?
1.1 A: I am not a superstar kernel developer but I will certainly try my best. First, start by reading the release posts, as I may make note of a particular issue. Also search the thread to see if I have discussed it before. If you see nothing, please provide me with a dmesg/last_kmsg and logcat, your ROM/kernel version, and a detailed description of the issue. With that, I'll do my best to assist you.
Code:
adb logcat -d > logcat.txt
adb shell dmesg > dmesg.txt
1.2 Q: Can you add xyz feature?
1.2 A: If you link me the commits or tell me what kernel you had the feature in, I can take a look at them. I will not go digging super hard for commits and I will ignore requests that don't include this information. I won't promise that I will merge every request but I will always take it into consideration.
1.3 Q: How do I control the kernel?
1.3 A: I'd recommend using either @flar2's EX Kernel Manager or @Yoinx's Kernel Adiutor-Mod; both are extremely solid and have given me no issues.
Thanks to:
@REV3NT3CH for showing me what a good developer and kernel looks like
The various developers for their patches (@ak, @Buckmarble, @flar2, @franciscofranco, @frap129, @imoseyon, @jollaman999, and @Yank555 to name a few)
@osm0sis for AnyKernel2
@mdalexca for helping me with some kernel compilation issues and the prebuilt toolchain I use
@kwoktopus for giving me good advice on Makefile flags and other patches
@malybru for my nifty new signature and thread banner!
All of you guys for viewing the thread
A note about donations
Quite a few people have asked to donate to me in the past and I have turned them down. I am not in this for the money, this is my hobby, something I truly enjoy. If you truly want to donate to something (it is not expected in the slightest), I recommend an entity like the Open Source Initiative, the Free Software Foundation, XDA, or any one of the people I have thanked in the OP. Additionally, you are free to copy any and all of my work; the only thing I request is that you not ask for donations as well (though I can't really enforce this lol). Thank you.

@Psychofrantics
@Char_G
Without them, this project would not have been possible as I do not own this device. On that note, I will need a testing group for future builds, as there will be no guarantee the builds works properly without in-depth testing. If you would like to participate, join my Hangouts group through this link.

Further, I will also be personally adding features to this kernel along with tweaks and optimizations as and when needed.
DOWNLOADS :-(do not mirror my links)[ Latest Version ][ Older Versions ]
TEST BUILDS with OC & UV :-These builds contain the following extra features ( when compared to normal /stable builds ) :-
CPU OC to 1593.6 MHz
CPU UC to 96 MHz
CPU UV hardcoded and can't be changed
Associated RamDisk changes
Since OC will not work without associated ramdisk changes, hence test builds are available as boot images rather than anykernel zips.
Now there had been reports of bootloop with blisspop & rr roms and certain other roms. I looked into this and found out that even though they are based on cm kernel, their ramdisk sizes are different, hence bootloop on using boot.img but no bootloop on using anykernel zip ( since, anykernel works irrespective of ramdisk size).
Now it is highly unfeasible to build a boot.img for every different rom and upload them separately. Hence, I have decided NOT to include OC/UC in the stable builds.
Hence these images will only work on aosp and cm13 roms.[/I] Any rom having ramdisk size different than that of official cm13 or official slim(aosp), will not be supported. Hence no support for OC in rr/bliss.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS :-
Reboot into recovery.
Make a nandroid BackUp.
Select Install zip from SD Card.
Select the Downloaded zip (different builds are present as an option in AROMA).
Then Reboot to System.
RECOMMENDED APPS FOR KERNEL TWEAKING :-
Kernel Adiutor
Faux123 Kernel Enhancement Pro
I do not support any other apps.

It works very well!
The overclocking is overvolting the CPU? Or it just changes the frequencies?

You shouldn't face any issues with camera, which ROM are you on ??
For TCP try Westwood.

This kernel is strictly for marshmallow based roms only.
However if you want to use it on lollipop based roms try an older version.
You can download it HERE.

Will give that a go. From what I could see yesterday this version worked fine with Lollypop apart from the camera.
Edit
Seems that kernel won't run the processor any faster than 787.
Is there any chance of updating to include over clock or modding current version to work with Lollypop camera?

Adapt, improve and evolve!
Info:
Guys I created this kernel to Moto G 2013 (Falcon/Peregrine) and Moto G 2014 (Titan/Thea) in other words MSM8226 Motorola SoC baseds to learn, adapt some "unstable and unsafe" things as well to give a new life to my device, the plan is to support all Android versions avaliable for our device, I plan to do a better kernel with time and help of the comunity. This kernel is a nightly I will do it when I have a freetime or LineageOS update their sources or I add new features, it aims to be a rich feature kernel and a "perfection balance" between battery life and performance, this can be a UNSTABLE kernel, my routine will be build,upload and test, so stay tuned! I am open to suggestions. This is a kernel that don't work out-of-the-box the objetive of this kernel is give power to the user.
This kernel DO NOT WORK WITH STOCK MOTOROLA/GOOGLE PLAY EDITION ROM or IDCRISIS or AOSPARADOX.

How to install
If you're on other kernel please at least DIRTY FLASH you ROM, thanks.
The kernel:
By recovery:
Using TWRP (Please use the latest one)
1. Put the zip at /sdcard > Reboot to recovery > Install > Chose the kernel zip > Confirm to flash > (optional) Wipe caches > Reboot.
or
By app:
2. Flash it using Flashify or similar app from Playstore.
The kernel scripts backup your current boot.img so if you want to restore just use Flashify or TWRP.

Recommendations/Tweaking
Gov Tuner a mod to tune govs based on profiles for better battery life, better performance, or a balance., I have added a lot of sound patchs but A.R.I.S.E. will blow your mind! so if you want a better sound on your Moto G I suggest you A.R.I.S.E the best one in my opinion or just Viper+Dolby. And the best of the best tweaks app LSpeed just download and select a profile from main screen and fell it! or tune it by yourself!
To tweak use Kernel Adiutor from Playstore (or XDA Link), the Kernel Adiutor-Mod (fork with more experimental features) at XDA or Synapse You will need this zip and download Synapse app from Playstore.
Info about tweaking kernel The best guide to it!

How to git and build
Setting up and building
Basics of GIT
- How to build my kernel:
Code:
export ARCH=arm
export SUBARCH=arm
export CROSS_COMPILE=/path/to/toolchain/bin/arm-eabi-
make mrproper (cleans config files)
make clean (cleans already builded files)
make falcon_defconfig (or you device_defconfig)
make menuconfig (if you want to tweak the config)
make (I use this too -o2 -j4 CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y CONFIG_NO_ERROR_ON_MISMATCH=y)
How to cherry pick commits
Basically to cherry pick a commit you have to have it source and branch, this is a simple how to do it
First of all you need to set your upstream since it is a fork of CM/LOS or STOCK source:
Code:
git remote add upstream linkingithub.git
For example
Code:
git remote add upstream https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_motorola_msm8226.git
so if you want to cherry pick a commit from me
Code:
git remote add bryanbytez mysourcelink.git
and after that you need to have my source locally but stay calm this wont mess you source
Code:
git fetch -all
To merge upstream changes (From CM/LOS or Motorola)
Code:
git merge upstream/cm-13.0
This will merge upstream cm branch cm-13.0 in your source code.
Misc help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2319018 (about boot.img, ramdisk and others)
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2816715/branch-from-a-previous-commit-using-git (Unlike me you can just revert or create another branch based on the commit and not delete the whole source code )
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4410091/github-import-upstream-branch-into-fork (Import a upstream branch on your fork)
And to revert a git: git revert sha1, example git revert eab5c8fef098548f0f00085196bbf40f41bf8ba1

Just a headsup people based on commit of SLATE21&MOTOG i fixed the flicker issue of KK ROMs on Lollipop bootloaders.
I just need to repair WiFi (thanks to my script) and i will upload it soon.
So a bin thank you to @SLATE21&MOTOG.
Sorry double post. Slow net speed here.
lol great xD can you add dynamic fsync, zzmoove and Overclock/underclock.

I will look it, currently i trying to fix wifi in cm11 version and kexec and some more govs on cm13 and possible add DT2W since my power button is not that good.
New build on! for cm13 just a minor script optimization.
For cm11
v0 - CM11
Stock CM11 kernel with lastest sources and patched to work WiFi,Bluetooth and NO [email protected]!
New kernel, lol :highfive:
Smooth and fast on Resurrection Remix

I'm not (yet) a developer , I'm taking effort to put more choices of kernel for our great community.
This kernel is tweaked for best balance possible, if you want a feature quote me and i will see what i can do,
I will build this kernel when possible on my free time and because of it is a nightly and I will use this thread as a worklog too.
Thank you for using this kernel.

Adapt, improve and evolve!
Info:
Guys I created this kernel to Moto G 2013 (Falcon/Peregrine) and Moto G 2014 (Titan/Thea) in other words MSM8226 Motorola SoC baseds to learn, adapt some "unstable and unsafe" things as well to give a new life to my device, the plan is to support all Android versions avaliable for our device, I plan to do a better kernel with time and help of the comunity. This kernel is a nightly I will do it when I have a freetime or LineageOS update their sources or I add new features, it aims to be a rich feature kernel and a "perfection balance" between battery life and performance, this can be a UNSTABLE kernel, my routine will be build,upload and test, so stay tuned! I am open to suggestions. This is a kernel that don't work out-of-the-box the objetive of this kernel is give power to the user.
This kernel DO NOT WORK WITH STOCK MOTOROLA/GOOGLE PLAY EDITION ROM or IDCRISIS or AOSPARADOX.

Well since Thea doesnt have a defconfig I used the same of Titan, should work fine. They all are MSM8226 SoC's.

Just flashed the kernel on thea running the latest nightly of LOS. How to enable DT2W ? Tried with Synapse, but everytime I enable the option and lock the screen, the device just reboots. The display type of my XT1072 is mdss_dsi_mot_inx_720p_video_v0.

Can't make Synapse to work again, will provide logs if I figure out Synapse...also Google keyboard seems to have a problem launching after flashing the kernel
L.E: Got it working... here's the logcat. zipped it because txt exceeded max allowed size

Hi, i don't speak english, sorry for the language/grammar mistakes
I flash this kernel (R4 for cm12.1) on the last build of official Cyanogenmod 12.1 in thea model (cm12-20151129-nightly) and the camera doesn't work. I don't know how make a logcat, but if reflashing with stock kernel of this cm12.1 build, the camera works again.
any solution?

Installation instructions:
download the kernel from above links (post 3)
Boot to twrp
flash the zip
reboot
If coming from another custom kernel :
Extract the boot.img from your current rom zip
boot to twrp
flash the extracted boot.img
flash the kernel (revolt kernel zip)
flash magisk or super su (optional )
reboot
swipe gestures
Watch a video how it works (reference is of one plus ) :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvyUJxna-1E
How to take logs ?
Check the below thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2185929
General flashing way
This is how u should flash stuff
Rom+gapps+root+mods(sound,kernel etc )
When flashing stock kernel
Kernel +root
Flashing custom kernel after stock
Stock kernel +root+custom kernel
Check the zip is corrupt or not my comparing the md5(available on afh )
Still if U are getting system destroyed then check what u have done wrong .
Like
1) what magisk modules u guys are using
2) xposed is there or NOT
3)data is encrypt or not
4) mount system partition issues
5) outdated recovery
5)changed system file partition
Good Job @Kevin Saiza

If it's the same kernel source from Soviet kernel, it probably has the MTP bug. Takes always connecting to MTP. Also the boot animation hangs a little bit in the start. I am not sure about this one specifically. But from the looks of it seems to be the same kernel.
Going to test now!
Do the OC-s are overvolting, or 2.2 GHz uses the same voltage which uses 2.0GHz? And the GPU oc?
MIUI MM supported ??
Work on RR rom

In our case OC would make sense because we have an underclocked Snapdragon 660. Same for our GPU, it's an underclocked Adreno 512. However, a stable kernel is more important (for me).

Don't worry the R-Edition of this Kernel will always be focused on Stability and the X-Edition will be Focused on Experimental features. This Thread is the R-Edition Thread. :fingers-crossed:

WHICH is an underclocked 660. Which is an underclocked 820 (with a ****tier gpu). What does not make sense?

WiFi is working normally! which ROM are u on? try Reflashing and Restarting. Anyone else facing this?
@gaurav the focus hunting issue on RR or any is because MIUI sources are partially broken. will be fixed soon! and when it is, you will be notified in the changelog!
