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.

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.
The Bootlogo:
Using TWRP (Please use the latest one)
1. Reboot to recovery > Install > Chose the bootlogo zip > Confirm to flash > Reboot and enjoy.
2. Flash it using Flashify or similar app from Playstore.
3. Extract the zip and on mfastboot (or just fastboot) enter this command: fastboot flash logo logo.bin
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

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.

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?

Open Sourcing Mediatek - ZTE v970 ; SoC MT6577
Being owner of an Mediatek device, means (most of the times) not having the sourcecode published by the Official vendor.
ZTE never published full ICS sources (they only gave us incompleted, and unbuildable sources).
Furthermore, we never had JB 3.4.x Kernel sources.
Well this is xda after all, meaning we can accomplish pretty much everything
This is an fully Custom Kernel Source.
### For JellyBean 4.1 / JellyBean 4.2 Roms ONLY ###
--> For the new KitKat Build The Kernel is already included on the Rom, and Kernel Updates will be on that thread
Hello Guys !
In this thread you will find my custom Kernel for the ZTE v970 / v970m / Smart a18 (Portuguese Single-SIM version)

How to Flash
On recovery: (No need to wipe anything)
Just Flash the desired Kernel version.
It wont afect the rom, or your userdata.
But Just in case, make an full backup before flash
Download
Kernel Download is now available in the XDA: DEVDB "Download" Section.
F.A.Q. :
How can I change I/O Schedulers and Governors?
You can use the No-frills CPU Control APP from the PlayStore to switch bettwen then.
What's the Best Governor / I/O Scheduler?
Depends on your needs (Performance; Powersaving; etc)
An good resource, check this This Thread or Just Google it ...
How to Overclock my Device?
Download the attached app (THANKS bindassdost):
1: Add BBoost Game Mode widget to homescreen
2: The app widget behaves as toggle button to switch between stock and overclock (Overclock don't survive reboot)
Don't open the BBoostManager app, what you will be using its his WIDGET.

Thank you! so much!!
Flashing and testing!
Thanks for the work! What possibilities does the new kernel?

Hi there
Thanks for the feedback, please refer (and the others, when replying) what JB version are you using?
The JB 4.1.1 or JB 4.2.2.
Im using the 4.2.2, and yes it doesn't display that its charging sometimes, but he IS charging.
If you powered off your device you'll see that it is charging.
Also you should see the RED Led, that indicates that's charging
Also sometimes the battery percentage may display wrong values.
Regards, and thanks for testing

I may add governors and IO schedulers in the future.
But first lets fix these last issues.
Thanks
Beta 2 is Uploaded
EDIT: I've repack the kernel, for JB 4.1.1 users also
Just choose the correct version
Make an full backup on Recovery
Flash The kernel
Reboot
Please test it, and later you can revert back your stock kernel/data by restoring CWM Backup
If your battery Percentage (%) is frozen, reboot to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik again.
Regards
Fixed problems with loading and show battery percentage. I will continue testing stability and others. Good job. Thank you.

I've ordeder my phone from HK (so it's most probably the "international" version) and the values are the same.
Also please check my old repo against adding governors - it's very easy but important, current governor (mtk's hybrid) uses too much battery. If you want, I can create a push request

Adding Govs and IO isn't hard at all, i have alot of goodies to release into the kernel, i just dont want to add too much "junk" right now, before i get this last issues fixed
Then i can start with the addicional goodies, after that AND if all goes well, i can start working on an second kernel variant to fix the camera on 4.2 roms.
The priority was to have an kernel (and working sources) for this device
And of course, you are always welcome to help/test.
Thanks

LONG TERM SUPPORT :-
This kernel will be supported for a long time with updates directly streamed from CM kernel sources i . e . as long as CM keeps publishing updates to Motrola's Kernel, this kernel will also be updated.
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.

There are certain commits which improves and stabilizes cellular connectivity.
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.

However if you want to use it on lollipop based roms try an older version.

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?

Obviously you can use the sources of this kernel but i won't provide support if you want to build it on windows (cygwin) or on mac
You must use LZMA compression if you want to use this kernel for building a recovery otherwise the image won't fit the ~8 MB partition of our device
WARNING #1
if you want to flash phh's superuser (i use this) then flash first the superuser zip and after the kernel otherwise the rom won't boot
if you use SuperSU the order of flash doesn't matter
WARNING #2
Don't flash this kernel over an another custom kernel
Before flash make sure to have a way back (backups, dump, ...) and if you want to revert back to default kernel of your rom simply reflash the rom zip
WARNING #3
Remember that the some features can ruin/break some parts of your phone here are some examples:
changing voltages supplied to the battery
overclock/undervolt of cpu/gpu
too high volume in boeffla sound
too high vibration strenght
as the disclaimer says is at your own risk!

Hi to all i'm here to share with you (and with the community) my kernel based on haxynox/ivan_meler sources!
this is not a super kernel with a lot of features... the main goal of this project is to have a stable kernel with some features
However feature requests, bug reports (with logs), rewiews, ... are always welcome!
but THESE won't be added:
governors (pegasusq has tunables use them)
undervolt and overclock (unstable)
adaptive body bias (ABB)
gpu controls
io schedulers
F2FS (for now)
so the features are:
builded on archlinux
toolchain: https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded (gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_9-2015q3)
LZO compressed kernel
AnyKernel2 (should support all AOSP roms)
led control and led fading as default (thanks arter97)
changer control
taskstats (iotop support)
io schedulers: [noop] cfq
governors: [pegasusq] performance
tcp congestion controls: [cubic] reno
NTFS support
USB ethernet support
Joystick support (xpad, tablet, ...)
USB OTG support
coming features:
mdnie control
boeffla sound
you tell me
bugs:
none so far
Configuration app? i use terminal but if want you can use Kernel Adiutor of Trickster MOD apps however these won't cover all the features provided by this kernel
Obviously you can use the sources of this kernel but i won't provide support if you want to build it on windows (cygwin) or on mac, this is a linux kernel
You must use LZMA compression if you want to use this kernel for building a recovery otherwise the image won't fit the ~8 MB partition of our device
WARNING
if you want to flash phh's superuser (i use this) then flash first the superuser zip and after the kernel otherwise the rom won't boot
if you use SuperSU the order of flash doesn't matter

you can install this kernel on all aosp roms (cyanogenmod, temasek, resurrection remix,...)
it's means this kernal is available for the porting of TW 5.1.1 of N7100?

ok i will try but i remember that was causing issues in some older builds so i don't know if it will be added...
edit: got it working will be live in the next build!
Firstly great kernel and great thanks for implementing dt2wake.
BTW can I know how to disable single tap 2 wake and only use dt2wake. Thanks

enable doubletap2wake (knockon) and tap2wake will be disabled automatically
first enable tap2wake (echo 1 > /sys/class/misc/touchwake/enabled) and after enable knockon (echo 1 > /sys/class/misc/touchwake/knockon)
@ParanoidNote I'm using your kernel in the latest crDroid build, but I'm not sure how to use the dt2wake feature. How can I enable it?

ok open a terminal, and type:
su
echo 1 > /sys/class/misc/touchwake/enabled
echo 1 > /sys/class/misc/touchwake/knockon
echo 60 > /sys/class/misc/touchwake/delay (delay after the screen goes off)(optional)
if this doesn't work try to reflash the kernel and repeat the procedure above
however i will post in the main thread a sample init for configure the kernel at boot (enable dt2wake, boeffla, zzmoove,...)

I followed your instructions but
It doesn't seem to work.
I can't able to disable tap 2 wake and only use d2wake.

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.
The Bootlogo:
Using TWRP (Please use the latest one)
1. Reboot to recovery > Install > Chose the bootlogo zip > Confirm to flash > Reboot and enjoy.
2. Flash it using Flashify or similar app from Playstore.
3. Extract the zip and on mfastboot (or just fastboot) enter this command: fastboot flash logo logo.bin
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!
Better RAM management for FALCON/PEREGRINE/TITAN/THEA thanks to @Pupet_Master

mdss_dsi_mot_lgd_720p_video_v0 (FALCON/PEREGRINE)
If you don't have a working DT2W/S2S/S2W or don't like it you can disable it and/or use AcDisplay app or Anbient Display of your ROM instead.
To check which display type you have by going into terminal and type:
su
cat /proc/cmdline

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

Thanks! Sure autosmp!
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.

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.

I wanted to dedicate this post to my devoted testers:
@SM210
@Mrcactuseater
@vampire36
@ulxerker
@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.
