[KERNEL] Ares-Kernel {KlteXXX} - Sprint Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development

****Ares-Kernel****
****By****
****The~Skater~187****
This kernel is a combination of SmartPack/Boeffla-Venom Samsung Galaxy S5 Lineage OS kernel, with some tweaks and additions from around the net. I have decided that since SmartPack was EOL and with sunilpaulmathews ok, I would just combine our two kernels (since fbs has Boeffla-Kernels covered) to make it easier for me to maintain his work and my own.

One More For Good Measure

YES.!!!!

sdfat code have syntax errors, aren't even compiling here.. humm
ok, fixed it and stealed it

Thanks for ur good kernel. Flashed on haggertk android pie no problem so far. At first I was getting random reboots,it caused by my magisk modules. I disable them and the problem fix. Thanks again.
LKT magisk module on this kernel cause random reboots.

Thanks for your work

So I popped over to this thread you linked to from the Venom thread and want to make sure I'm clear. This kernel (Ares-Kernel) should not be used on a Resurrection Nougat based ROM? I think that Resurrection Nougat ROM is a Lineage 14 based ROM, correct? Or even though it is Lineage 14 based, can the Areas-Kernel still be used because it is based off Lineage.
Thanks for any clarification. Left this post in other thread to just to make sure I got it in right spot. Disregard which ever one is posted in wrong spot. Thanks.

awesome dude!!! thank you so much! i'm really glad that someone continues the smart-pack kernel!

:laugh: big, Big, BIG Thank you @The~Skater~187! Really appreciate your effort and dedication in helping to keep this old phone alive and competitive! :highfive:

Hey, good work mate!
Thanks for it, we were orphan but you came and adopted us, LOL, kidding.
Just some thoughts on it.
I've found that, on thermal tab, vd restriction cant be disabled while core control is enabled. That used to happen on smartpack kernel but sunil get rid of it, maybe he can help. They are not made to be active together and can make the phone super slow and prone to crashes when it gets hot and they both kick in.
I also couldn't help to notice it's using my efficiency profile as defaults (on signature), and it's awesome, they work great don't they? Haha. I assume you grabbed it with the smartpack source code, since sunil's kernel used my profile as defaults.
There are some things that are outdated thought, specially page-cluster should be back to 0 on virtual memory as it is also prone to failures (apps don't working properly, like, a black screen without responses, based on my experiences) and crashes, min_sample_time is 0 and should be 40000 (one of the interactive governor tunables), which is an overlook by myself on an early release of my profile but fixed on the latest one already. I would recommend this small changes on the defaults, as well as the tunable io_is_busy 0 to let multicore power saving disabled.
I'm glad that you're also using it but I would also like to ask proper credits for it, I know, is not code, but demanded me months of studying and testing to get it almost where I wanted! There's a little history on the thread on my signature.

I do apologize about the credit issue, I thought I had put your name in the acknowledgment section right before ktoonsz last night, as I noticed your name on a few of the files in the RamDisk. I will definitely straighten that out and thank you for pointing that out. You are correct, I so far have just synced SmartPack source, then started applying things from my other kernel for now. I wanted to get something up-to-date and stable out for you guys before I started diving deeper into other kernel related things.
As for the rest of your suggestions, I will look into them for sure. Feel free to p.m. me with any thoughts or other suggestions.

Many thanks!
On other news, I was getting some random reboots, and found out that it was because of my undervolt settings. It's super weird, because they never gave me any problems since 3~4 months with the smartpack kernel, and it should be a setting particular to my specific device/cpu, and have the same limits across any kernel. I used the same across lots of roms, and different versions of smartpack, for nougat, oreo and pie, so, I hope you can see why I find this very weird.
But, I don't know if it's actually a 'bug', I will find some time to fine tune it, raise some voltages to see where I can go with Ares kernel without crashing. For now I'm using the default voltages.

I did do a bit of an overhaul on the voltage table when I added the higher oc steps, due to the fact that on my other kernel lower voltages stock we're causing problems and random freezes.
Sent from my kltespr using Tapatalk

Yeah, I'm sure you know, undervolting need to be done step by step, making sure the lowest you can go, device specific, so risking repeating myself, same voltages should probably 99,99% of the time works across any kernel/rom on a given device. I don't think it is the undervolt anymore.
It took a while but I still had some reboots with default voltage, once I was finally able to press up and home right after it, so it rebooted directly to TWRP and I copied the last_kmsg, it's attached, all configs were on default. I hope it helps to find out what it may be.
I'm back on smartpack for now, cause the same setup and profile runs without no problems, so I think it should not be a problem just on my end, is it? Anybody else?
Fun fact, I was are able to dirty install smartpack kernel over ares and vice-versa and it detected and updated itself without any problems.

@The~Skater~187 edit: oh, I just noticed, there's no option to input 268 MHz voltage. My voltages are getting placed on the wrong frequency because of that, found the problem!
I recovered the backup I just made before installing the kernel, I had installed the shushified bootleggers 3.0 on top of the unshushified 3.0, they are the same rom except for official (shushified) status, but anyway, that may be the cause of some of my problems, adding up to the 268 missing voltage that was overlooked by me.
After that I installed Ares kernel again with no undervolt and gone to sleep. Woke up today, and no reboots, then I was trying to test undervolting it and found out about the missing 268 voltage, so every previous voltage I used was getting used on 1 clock step above, so, not enough power for sure.
Just put my exactly same volts on their correspondent freq and no reboots until now!
It also seems that Core Control is staying enabled and VD Restrictions is disabled correctly now too. So, if you experience the same you may disregard it as well.

Thanks for this!!
Great so far, this with Pie ROMs is the best battery life I've had since stock.
4-5 hours sot, 7h active, 12h idle..(gsam stats) on this original 2800mah. I've gone from 4-5 charges a day to 1-2.
And kernel brightness control keeps the flickers away.
Edit: did notice both vdd and core thermals being active, didn't cause any overheating/reboots (i often run cpu info as overlay) but I stuck with core control only to be safe. It doesn't stick after reboot.

Yeah, after some further analysis, I came to find out exactly the same.
After a reboot both VDD and CC come back up, and I have to do a little dance, like, disable vdd and cc, enable intellithermal, then enable only cc, or something like that, then it will stick with only cc until the next reboot.

Ok, so I decided I'm going keep an "unofficial" SmartPack kernel going (nothing more than source updates will be applied) as well as my off shoot kernel project. I will have it available for you guys tomorrow evening.

[KERNEL][STABLE] Badass Kernel 1.9.2

Hey guys. This is Badass Kernel, a modified version of AU Kernel with a little bit too many additions to fit in the Original Development section.
Logs are disabled in this kernel. This is not a bug, it's a feature.

Android 4.2.2
CM10.1
AOSPA
PAC
AOKP
Android 4.0.4/4.1.2

A_U's bootsplash
Added Badass CPU Governor
Added Badass GPU control
Replace ZRAM LZO compression with Google Snappy compression which is a lot faster
Kernel Samepage Merging enabled by default
Writeback tweaked to do the work only when the screen is off
Added ROW I/O scheduler
Tweaked smartassV2 for more battery saving
Tweaked CFQ and Deadline
1.1
Added frandom support for CrossBreeder to finally work properly

Disabled a lot of debugging
1.2
Implemented Dynamic Filesync and enabled by default
Proportional Rate Reduction for TCP
Correct AXI bus values for CPU
Re-added 825 and 844 MHz frequencies (be careful with these as they're not stable, they were left out with a reason)
Trimming /cache every 15 minutes if media playback is stopped.
Updated LowMemoryKiller driver (if you use ram manager or scripts for setting minfree, here are some really good values:3072,4096,12800,14336,15360,19200)
New bootsplash (HTC-alike)
1.2.1
Fixed Snappy
Further UV (0-1-2-3-6)
1.2.2
Enabled Compaction and linked it to LowMemoryKiller
Updated Deadline(now it's better than ROW)
Changed kernel compressor/decompressor from GZIP to the much faster LZ4.
Writeback tweaks from Linus Torvalds
Added TCP congestion algorithms: Hybla, Westwood, Highspeed-TCP. Default is Hybla because in tests, performed better than the rest.
1.3
Enabled Triple Buffering (component of Project Butter by Google)
Added Tiny RCU for smaller memory footprint
Added BoostPulse interface for SmartassV2
1.3.1
Added BoostPulse interface for SmartassH3 and updated it with a new variable(boost_freq) to suit the governors ramping policy
1.4
Lots of code optimizations
AHB Overclocking for faster R/W operations[787 MHz and higher don't have this kind of overclocking because of instability)
New 652 MHz undervolted frequency
CPU Unaligned Access (much faster booting time because of better kernel decompression)
Buffer values updated from Samsung original sources(Triple Buffering, Camera)
SmartassH3 and KSM parameters tweaked for better battery life
1.5
CPU clocks rework
Modified AXI Bus to allow lower CPU frequencies
Added completely stable 68 MHz frequency
New undervolt settings (0-0-1-2-3-5-6-7)
Rewritten Badass CPU and GPU control driver to make more use of 68 MHz frequency
Tuned SmartassH3 to make more use of low frequencies
Added fully functional zCache and ZsmAlloc, backported from 3.4 kernel
1.5.1
Added LowBattery Powersave feature for Badass governor
Badass parameters are more performance biased now
Recalculated Frame Buffer Size for Triple Buffering
Clean-up(remove deprecated CPU governors)
1.6
Add newest Adaptive RED Net Scheduler from 3.4 kernel and make it default.
Replace Snappy Compression with LZ4 Compressor(this is the fastest compressor on the market)
Make our kernel probably the first 2.6 kernel to have these two features
1.6.1
Update LZ4 Compressor from original sources and make it fully functionable
1.7
Replace zRam XvmAlloc with the better ZsmAlloc integration

Add CPU Idle driver to support C4 Deeper Sleep state
Add Wheatley governor to make more use of the new C4 state.
Change Bootsplash
1.9
New governor: WheatleyPlus
Reworked scaling down logic for less calculation
Added BoostPulse interface
Linked BoostPulse to the touchscreen driver (now the governor can really "sense" a touch and boost the frequency after a specific time threshold)
Added Triphasic scaling up logic from Badass (Phase2 is 360 MHz and Phase3 is 480 MHz)
Fixed the Deep Sleep states verification for scaling
Added GPU Control Driver
Added Sampling Down Momentum for dinamically changing the factor for scaling down
Updated OnDemand governor (it's pretty good at the moment)
Remove Badass and Lazy as they were deprecated
Link BoostPulse to the touchscreen driver for SmartassH3 and OnDemand
Optimize the CPU clock structure for WheatleyPlus
Update SIOPlus and add fluid tunables
Introduce Dynamic Cache Pressure
Revise Dynamic Writeback algorithm
Introduce Timer Slack Controller (aka Timer Coalescing, explanation below)
Deep Sleep tweaks

Timer Slack Controller: (this is a copy-paste from boype's thread)
What does the timer slack feature do?
Timer slacking aims to synchronize applications' and processes' CPU requests. The goal is to wake up the CPU less often in oder to save battery. What you need to know here is the following: waking the CPU up and putting it back to sleep again consumes power. Imagine that four apps wake the CPU up four times each in one second. While without timer slacking the CPU would be woken up 16 times, it is desirable to coordinate the wakeups. If done right, the CPU would wake up less often, effectively allowing power savings and longer sleep periods. This is what timer slacking does.
I have activated timer slacking only for background applications, so that everything else stays as responsive as you know it.
Apple has recently introduced this feature under the name 'timer coalescing' with their Mac OSX Maverick (link).
More information: How Apple does timer slacking ('Timer coalescing') (Scroll a little down to the diagrams)
LZ4 Compressor:
LZ4 is a very fast compressor, based on well-known
LZ77 (Lempel-Ziv) algorithm. Originally a fork from LZP2, it provides
better compression ratio for text files and reaches impressive decompression
speed, in the range and beyond 1GB/s per core (!), especially for binary files.
These speeds are scalable with multi-threading modes, quickly reaching
RAM speed limits on multi-core systems.
ROW I/O scheduler:
The ROW scheduling algorithm will be used in mobile devices as default
block layer IO scheduling algorithm. ROW stands for "READ Over WRITE" which
is the main requests dispatch policy of this algorithm.
The ROW IO scheduler was developed with the mobile devices needs in mind.
In mobile devices we favor user experience upon everything else, thus we want
to give READ IO requests as much priority as possible. The main idea of the ROW
scheduling policy is just that: - If there are READ requests in pipe - dispatch them,
while write starvation is considered.

(you have to edit it to add your own apps, then move it to init.d and set correct permissions. right now you can only add one app, I'll fix this in the next version)
Script to enable zRam with optimized disksize for Fit: View attachment zRamV2.zip (flashable zip) [UPDATED]
Jeeko's PureAudio fixed for CM10.1 and AOKP: View attachment PureAudio__1.0_-_STUDIO.zip [ Please thank Jeeko for this awesome mod. ]
NOTE: This version of PureAudio is compatible with absolutely any equalizer or player.
If you have Titanium Backup installed, in the menu you'll find an option named "Integrate sys Dalvik into ROM". Use it.
This is something like odexing your system, but keeps the classes.dex files inside the apps. Don't worry if you don't have a lot of system space, Titanium will odex as much as it can until the free space runs out.
TIP: So in latest version of CrossBreeder, the OP added some system tweaking which interferes with our kernel. So I edited those parts to match our settings and device limits.
If anyone wants to install CrossBreeder:
-First uninstall by flashing this file: CrossBreeder_Uninstall_7.2.13.zip - 943.12 KB
-Then install this custom version: CrossBreeder_7.2.13-Badass.zip - 1.59 MB

Changed the ramdisk, now it should boot. All versions are flashable zips, you don't have to reinstall the ROM for installing a kernel.
Keep a flashable zip with your original kernel on sd in case this doesn't boot.
I flashed kernel for CM10.1 RC6 of erikcas and it works without problems for me.

Just a question, I flashed the tweaks on this thread and Fly-On Scripts.. After flashing the kernel, do I need to flash them again?
---------- Post added at 06:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:34 PM ----------
Just a little update, just flashed the kernel. No problems at all, it feels smooth as it can be. I'm running it 68-768Mhz with no problems.
Wake up in the morning..
Open xda (5670 forum)..
see something new anddd..
ohmyglob! FINALLY! SIR ALIN.P's KERNEL!
Best morning news and goodness in the morning! ooohh yeah! Time to test this baby out! By the way, I'd love to see your ROM here sir Alin! THANKYOU!
Kernel works perfectly at 768Mhz, something that I couldn't OC to before. I tryed to OC to 806Mhz and my Fit rebooted automatically. :lol:
Now I'm trying to use 787Mhz to see what can happen.
EDIT: Can't OC over 768Mhz. At 787 the G-Fit keeps running for 15 mins until it locks at whatever it's doing for forever and from 806 onwards it just reboots automtically. At least that's what my G-Fit does, don't know what about the others. Just sharing my personal experience so far with the Badass Kernel.

The kernel installs in its own partitions, it doesn't mess with the /system or /data. So you don't need to reinstall anything, only the kernel will be modified when flashing.
About the OC, the kernel uses the same clocks as the stock kernel, with a little tweaks for stability and battery life(Undervolt and refined AXI bus). I was expecting 768 to be the maximum, that's a physical limit. I can't do anything about it. Anyway, I added 748 MHz in case 768 is unstable for some of you.

I just ported my ROM too. The no-gapps might still have some problems, not sure about it. I had only two reports and 30 downloads, maybe the errors are /data related and individual.
I'll be away for two weeks to prepare for my exams, so I'll answer your questions then.

About GPU overclock:
My phone is Samsung SHV-E330S, which is basically GT-N9005 in S4 case, so 99% hardware is the same.
According to my investigation in GPU overclocking, frequencies are handled fully inside RPM firmware. Frequencies in .dtsi files aren't used. RPM uses its own frequency table and cannot be changed from linux side. So, your GPU OC simply doesn't affect actual GPU frequencies. Linux GPU governor will think it uses new frequencies and will actually switch to a wrong frequency (because RPM will use hardcoded unmatched freq table) - so everything will go wrong (as you already noticed, probably).
I've monitored GPU/PLL hardware registers and saw, they work according RPM's table and not affected by .dtsi settings.
There is the only way to overclock SD800 GPU is by modifying PLL settings (as it was done for SD600 GPU). There is PLL for highest GPU powerlevel's frequency which used solely by GPU (just like in SD600). But performance increase is not so high as it could be from increasing RAM frequency OC (which i didn't manage to tweak yet).
P.S.: I don't know about N9005, but in E330S standard highest frequency is 550MHz (according to PLL settings) instead of 450MHz as advertized in MSM8974 (not AB or AC), although in .dtsi files max frequency is 450MHz. Good bonus from Samsung
Probably, in N9005 it's the same.

thanks for being with us... lets start our journey
yes came from n9005
what is stock sound with gpu and without gpu??
thanks

Wolfson Sound Control - analogue of FauxSound for snapdragon, but for Exynos. Improves the sound and makes it possible to significantly increase the volume.
Is that different the kernel from the N910C to the N910U ?? Just asking.
Just flashed successfully and will report back, all seems smooth thus far but I'm just 2mins in lol
Thanks again for bringing this to Exynos
Not all N910c GPU are equal, so we releaseв two versions with GPU OC and without for you can test can your GPU works with overclocked GPU or not. Cuz now its impossible to include GPU OC function in synapse!
Just for info I flashed Wolfson with GPU oc and its smooooth
With Wolfsond Sound Microphone does not work on the speakerphone mode!!! Its a bug, and we are working on it! If you often use Speakerphone mode please use standart sound kernel!
Finaly here
First for others - i downclock powersaving cores to just 200Mhz - its stable
Have some *two little problems*, or asks:
1. Antutu never finish: phone fall to reboot in 3D test (when that guy start walk).
2. Why are memory results in Geekbench that low? Before i had Single/Multi +- 1200/1350 and now it is 670/690 ?

First of all I want to say this that is one project which just started and gradually we will improve it. In this community there are very good developers and we are not traying to compete with them. This is just a hobby and we do it because we like Android. This kernel is only for SM-N910F SM-N910G SM-N910T and SM-N910W8 and we don't have plans to make it compatible with other versions of Galaxy Note 4. We hope that you will not only download the kernel but also you will leave your feedback with pros and cons and you should respect our efforts.
Don't be scared by the nightly denomination of the kernel.

F.A.Q
Can I flash this kernel on Note 4 SM-N910C or other variant?
No, you can not. This kernel is only for SM-N910F, SM-N910G, SM-N910T and SM-N910W8.
When I switch to Ondemand governor I noticed that cpu-boost is disabled.
Exactly, Ondemand and cpu-boost doesn't work well together. When you switch to Ondemand governor cpu-boost will be disabled automatically. Don't re-enable cpu-boost if you are using Ondemand governor. (Synapse>CPU DRIVERS)
Which app can control this kernel?
By default, the kernel is controlled by Synapse, but you can use the app that you like (Trickster Mod, Kernel Tweaker, etc.).
I flashed the kernel and Synapse says: "No support UCI detected".
Reflash the kernel, since it was a bad installation and Synapse does not detect the scripts.
After flashing the kernel lost root what to do?
In case you loose root just flash SuperSU
Any recommended settings to follow using Synapse?
At the beginning of the second post.
After flash the kernel some apks give me FC.
Go to Google Play Store and reinstall those apks.
From where can I remove int.d script?
Go to /system/etc/init.d using any root based file manager and delete.
Note: There is an important one related to superSU and if you remove it by mistake you're gonna have trouble with root permissions.
My device doesn't show any reaction to undervolting (battery life is same as before) or gets unstable even on light undervolting?
Use DVFS disabler Module(standalone) (dynamic voltage and frequency scaling), this feature was kept in touchwiz for benchmark boosting purposes and will conflict with any undervolting and custom governors because it scales the voltages and frequency on regular intervals and is framework integrated, so gets a higher priority than kernel based voltage and scaling controls.
For people who don't know what is DVFS please refer Wikipedia.
Min/Max frequency don't stick?
If your frequency settings don’t stick, it's because on certain Qualcomm devices, there are certain system services (thermald/mpdecision/project butter) or kernel service that rewrite frequency settings based on current thermal status and/or touch input.
I made a logcat but my file is empty. How I can "fix" it?
By default Android logger is disable. Go to Synapse > MISCELLANEOUS and enable Logger Mode.
What is it PowerSuspend?
This new powersuspend PM kernel driver is a replacement for it and existing early_suspend drivers. It should give better battery life.
What is it Intelli-Plug?
Intelliplug is a replacement for mp decision. Intelli-Plug is Faux123 open source solution to Qualcomm's closed source mpdecision. Intelli-Plug is disable by default. It conflicts with mpdecsion, so is HIGHLY recommend turning off mpdecision when using intelli-plug! (If you use Synapse the change is automatic. If you enable Intelli-plug mpdecision will turn off).
What is it Intelli-Thermal?
an intelligent MSM thermal throttling kernel driver designed to replace the
closed sourced thermald(aemon) from Qualcomm.
What is it Frandom?
Frandom is a kernel random number generator, which is 10-50 times faster than what you get from /dev/urandom. And it uses very little (/dev/frandom) or none (/dev/erandom) of the kernel's entropy pool, so it is very useful for applications that require a handy source for lots of random data.
What is it CRC?
CRC is a mechanism aiming to prevent data corruption when is enabled (reduce the performance around 30%). So if you disable it improve the performance but your data can be corrupted. Use it at your risk.

I will test it tonight but I read somewhere that it needs to be based on T-Mobile source for it to work.
I just want to say that I'm SO glad to see this thread / kernel in this subforum. To all my fellow N910T users: I've been using this kernel for a few weeks now after testing every other kernel available, and I've had the best experience by far on my N4 running Nadia kernel. The most recent release is incredible; stable as... something that's super-stable , FauxSound implementation! I have the paid FauxSound app and the sound quality of everything (in call and otherwise) is simply fantastic, if anything ever "goes wrong" for any reason, in my experience booting into recovery, reflashing the kernel and wiping dalvik/cache will fix it 99% of the time. I really encourage N910T users to give this kernel a shot. It solved pretty much every problem I was experiencing previously with my N4, and really made it run like I felt that the current primo device on the market should run! :good:
Edit: Make sure to install BusyBox on Rails, free from the Play store along with this kernel. You'll have problems with Synapse otherwise... very important - just wanted to make a note of that Also, settings-wise, I mostly used @aukhan's settings in the video and undervolted -25mV across the board, which is a very solid place to start from.
Just FYI wifi calling fails to connect

I think the only way this works is if OP start from scratch using tmobile base.
I can also confirm that Wi-Fi calling gets error 82 failure to connect while using this kernel.
That said, if you don't need Wi-Fi calling this is an excellent, snappy, and stable build from my testing despite being in beta. I live in an area with good signal and I am impressed with it for sure. Dev has done good work here and brought another excellent kernel option to our device. :good:

Yeah deep sleep is fixed, in the other kernel it did not go into deep sleep which was where the battery drained.
So when will it be completed? (And if it is completed, when can we download?) I'm itching to test it out.

So how high does the GPU overclock to? And where can I go to change the frequency? Can I use trickstermod app?
BTW, its a pretty good kernel. Nice and smooth. Ever better when I use Seeder. Only thing I noticed was that it reboots every time I try to overclock it to 1747Mhz. 1500Mhz is the most stable for me so I'm sticking with it for now. Keep up the good work!!

ive not added the option to set your own gpu overclock yet, but it will be implemented in a future release thankyou!
Thanks a lot. Very stable and fast so far. I couldn't install double tap to wake. Your old kernel supports this right? Or did I use it elsewhere? Sorry been flashing lots of ROMs lately.
**seems my kindle can't handle a high oc for even short bursts. I set it to 1747 and 10 seconds later it went to bootloop. Shutting it down manually then restarting didn't work. Had to reboot in recovery. But I don't pretend to know precisely what I'm doing.
Have you or anyone else tested above 1500? And if it's working could you share the exact settings? Thanks.

Highest I can go to is 1632. No hiccups so far. Using Interactive Governer with Min Frequency set at 1200Mhz. At the moment I am testing out the new I/O Scheduler that was added, sioplus.

That's what I was doing except with a lower min value and it crashed. Not the system just the browser this time. I'm thinking not all kfhds are created equally.
Overall this has been pretty stable though when I keep it at or below 1500

This doesn't support double tap to wake as it stopped the device from going into deep sleep which caused the huge battery drain, sorry about that.
And yeah I usually stay at 1500, but the option is there for kindles that can handle higher
Not sure if this is related to kernel or ROM (beanstalk) but I'm getting incompatible a lot in play store. I tried market helper but apparently its not ready for lollipop yet. Is there a workaround or like I just considered now--lots of the apps aren't compatible with 5?

Yeah its because a lot of apps don't support lollipop, however most of them can be downloaded from your browser with a quick google search
I know this is way out there a year later, but any plan on updating to 5.1.1 CM based?
