- Script to change /cache to virtual 50MB (in case you want to download apps > 30MB from Market)
Make sure to disable this option before convert to ext4. You may enable this after the conversion
In order to control voodoo sound and color and BLN you have to download Voodoo Control and BLN control applications respectively from android market.
The max CPU frequency is by default 1Ghz.
You may use applications like Voltage Control to control UV.
In order to load various modules of the kernel and enable or disable features use HM.Carbide's Semaphore Script Manager application. It automatically copies and runs the respective scripts from /res/scripts to /system/etc/init.d directory. The scripts:
- S05enable_oc_1000_default (disable overclocking)
- S05enable_oc_1200 (enable overclocking to 1200MHz)
- S05enable_oc_1300 (enable overclocking to 1300MHz)
- S10enable_gov_conservative (load and enable conservative governor module)
- S10enable_gov_ondemand_default (enable ondemand governor)
- S10enable_gov_smartassV2 (load and enable conservative smartassV2 module)
- S15enable_sched_deadline (load and enable the deadline I/O scheduler module)
- S15enable_sched_noop_default (enable noop scheduler)
- S15enable_sched_sio (enable and load SIO scheduler module)

Nice work, πατρίδα! But you should have posted it to the Development Section. I'm going to test it asap.
Unfortunately I don't have rights to post it to development section...
this is excatly what cf-root needed.. perfect work.. thanks...
Just flashed.Works ok so far.
Galaxy S @Juwe 4.3.1
I've Installed trough neldar kernel flasher.Everything works ok.Only bln support haven't tested.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Seems like the perfect kernel! Thank you so much, Testing it right now. No errors till now.
Give feedback when I know more.
Thanks again.
successfully installed on dxjv9 deodexed rom using sgs kernel flasher... boot faster.. n i love cwm manager n tweak manager from cf-root. thanks.. will report back for any issues.
BLN doesn't seem to work here. Everything is correctliy set up, but no LEDs. Worked before with other BLN supporting kernels like DarkCore.
Can you check that?
Now just hardcore's sharpness fix added and it'd be the perfect kernel for me.
Thanks, testing it
Flashed, and all the cf-root apps showed up, which was good. But, the reason i installed this kernel (BLN) is non-functional.
Installing the BLN Control - Pro app gave the error 'The liblights on this device does not support BLN'
Does anyone else have BLN working on this kernel?

BLN 100%
The kernel is awesome, works 100%.
Kernel fluid, fluid latency, low power consumption, undervol correct.
1 error: CPU 100-200-400-800-1000-1200 <--- 600??

I also had this problem. I replaced the liblight with the one of the BLN thread (even if it worked before with DarkCore kernel). Now BLN app is fine, but the LEDs still doesn't work.
Anyone an idea?!

Try to copy /res/misc/lights.s5pc110.so to /system/lib/hw
Just in case, keep a backup of the original file.
I use the BLN control pro without a problem. Works with missed calls and gmail. Do you have problem with all applications? Also check the scheduler in the BLN control pro.

and the existz patch:
100-200-400-800-1000-1200
Thanks a lot.. Was looking for exactly this.. kernel close to stock and with voodoo sound.. Working great till now !!
Update: BLN not working out of the box.. BLN control app prompts to flash another kernel.. Will try out the methods mentioned in the earlier posts.
SGS-I9000 + 2.3.3 JVO
The Midnight kernel (mngb) is a personal project aiming for "average", daily use and stability. Not benchmark performance. Nothing fancy. I really liked the Speedmod kernel while using Froyo but missed some features so 2011/07 I decided to work on this kernel which has now been completely rebuilt 2012/06 using latest Samsung sources.
Big thanks to Mahd for tenacious testing and beeing patient with me, all users, donators and developers and especially stratosk, hardcore, supercurio (Voodoo), koush (CWM), neldar (BLN) and everybody else developing Open Source software, helping or reporting.

Nice to see a new kernel dev for the i9000. Welcome!
Oh wow, something new to flash I'll just wait for some feedback, and give it a try
That was really nice of you to thank everyone that way. I can rarely see this on the forums..
Nice kernel, hope you will become big and probably a new ROM chef in the near future, who knows...
Wish you all the best.
I wish you all good! You don't need to be programmer or anyone else like that to make something big, just keep your mind open for new challenges and see what ppl says, do not give up and do not be discouraged by some of them
Here is a .tar image and a cwm .zip

Congratulation for your new kernel. more kernel choice for me.

Thank you for your kind "welcome", I'm glad to be able to give something back to XDA.
@Lukiqq: Jup, I'm not a full-time programmer but made some experiences with BASIC/Python/Bash/little bit of C/C++, even looked into Java about 10 Years ago and mainly PHP/MySQL/CSS (+ a little bit of MS SQL @work) since starting with BASIC/PASCAL almost 20 years ago (2086XT,black/yellow monitor ). I like code of all kinds but just don't have enought time to learn...
@pingpong: Thank you for the packages, just answered your PM.
thanks m8 will try this...keep up the good work.....cheeerz
No Bootanimation support??
As I'm using Speedmods' initramfs bootanimation should work as /system/media/bootanimation.zip. Never used it myself, though.
Prepared 0.1.8 with Voodoo10, 341Mb RAM and updated Patchfile (to work with -p1 ) but did a "make clean" before saving a zImage backup so this will be here tomorrow as I'm doing a recompile this night. Have made a copy using this which works on my device but I'm not sure about uploading this DD-zImage...
Edit: Recompiled and uploaded. Near midnight...
Thank you for your work @mialwe!
- 0.1.9 uploaded, includes BLN support (tested with bln pro app and Gmail).
- cleaning up first post a bit
- thinking of uploading my build script... maybe useful for someone...
mialwe keep the good work and thanks for this kernel i will stay tunned
Good to see new kernels coming up. All the best . Gonna give it a spin tonight.
Edit - Sorry didnt work out for me "Bootloops" went back to semaphore via odin.
Juwes 5.2
Good kernel, stable and fast. Looking at all day behaviour the next days.
Thanks for the good work.
Very good kernel fast stable. I love it
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
@all: Glad it works for most of you
I'm thinking of tweaking conservative governor to scale up a bit faster, should give better battery as conservative steps up frequency after frequency - ondemand uses highest frequency much faster.
@DonVito2020: If you flashed via CWM - the CWM script does not include any clear-cache or clear-dalvik-cache actions (and does not erase any init.d-script btw), maybe this would have been an option to try - reboot to recovery, clear caches from there, reboot again and check if you get bootloops.
Is the CWM 2.5 version you use compatible to 3.x CWM installpacks? Like Modems etc?
The MNICS (Midnight-ICS) kernel is a personal project started JUL/2011 with the GB version because a kernel with the features I needed did not exist.
Main focus: stability and smooth experience using a modified Conservative CPU governor. Secondary: useful additions + easy to use app.
Big thanks to XDA, the community, testers, bug reporters and hardcore, chainfire, lukiqq, stratosk, zach, exitz, supercurio, koush, neldar, madrooster, pikachu01, pawtip & teamhacksung, ezekeel, renaudallard, toadlife, Tk-Glitch, krarvind, derTeufel1980, F4k and all the other devs. Everything I have learned about SGS I have learned reading XDA posts, sources or from conversation with XDA members - maybe I can give something back with this kernel.
Unique:
- modified Conservative governor for smooth experience
- kernel app for all features, no scripting needed
- nightmode toggle via kernel app (no overlay, real dark screen)

Thx for the great kernel, mialwe!
First Impressions:
1. fast (listening to music+playing speedx 3d+tapatalking+opening browser without any lag)
2. color settings are confusing (midnight control or galaxy s settings? dunno which one to use)
3. nice bootsplash (minimalistic&nice)
4. no didle and liveOC (you already thougt about adding this?)
To resume, this kernel is just great and I'm looking forward to seeing more features. I haven't tested bln yet, dunno if it works.
Keep up the good work!

Works great on CM9.
Thanks.
so excited!!!!
welcome to ics best ginger kernel.
Hi,
thanks for your realy nice kernel.
I will test it.
Please tell me, have your kernel iptables for droidwall activated?
Thanks
Welcome mialwe.
Flashing over Semaphore 0.9.5b(removed all init.d stuff before as 0.7.4 does not have init.d support) on SLIM ICS 2.8 is fine no issues there, just in case anybody curios like me to try...
---------- Post added at 10:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 PM ----------
Really nice kernel for an alpha [email protected] Good job and Thank you.
Clean, fast and smooth yet without OC and LiveOC.
Couple of early minor issue notices:
Toggle night mode: Turning on, screen goes green like night vision camera but totally blur,screen guessing needed to toggle it back.
RGB color setting: Need some explanation, I pressed reset to default and then colors were faded, after rebooting I got the ROM color back.
So far so good.
Thank you all. Edit: In MidnightControl->menu->help there is more information on all app options including colors.

- Midnight *does* support init.d script execution.
- Night mode: All this toggle does is lowering a min.brightness tunable to "1". Sounds like colors/gamma tuned too aggressive -> typical green tint on low brightness.
- What does "faded" mean? This options sets some values to the according tunables ("0") to R/G/B/gamma, no fading involved but you see the difference if you adjusted some of those before. Rebooting without the set-at-boot-toggle checked will give you ROM colors as MidnightControl will not override ROM colors in this case.

Yes, you are absolutely right here. Sadly all ICS ROMs seem to include kernel settings in their ROM option menus. I'm thinking of removing the MidnightControl color menu (but leave the night mode where it is) for the next version.
For now you can use both, Midnight color settings will override ROM color settings and stick at boot if you tick the load-at-boot option.

0 : Doubletap2wake will not working.
1 : Wake by double taps.
2 : Wake by triple taps.
9 : Wake by 10 taps.
Recognizing Time : 100ms * 'touch counts'
(So when you set to 9, you can wake your device by 10 taps in 1 second. )
Known Issues
- When 'Nightmare' governer is selected, cpu cloks are not showing properly.
- USB Keyboard/Mouse driver is not loaded with Stock Kernel

Checked Compatible ROMs
Mod : CM12 (GEEHRC Unofficial), CM11 (GEE Unofficial), AxxionKat, Carbon
Normal (non-mod) : Dirty Unicorns, DayDream (This is Korean ROM ), Liquidsmooth
Stock : ARTMOD, Sling, Miui (you have to flash stock_miui)
G3 : GEE3
We always hearing your feedbacks. If there is a problem with specific ROMs, Error report into this thread.
Code:
---About Multi ROM---
jolla-TWRP is GEEHRC based recovery.
So when you going to flash Gproj based ROM or Stock based ROM, it can occur status 7 error.
In this case, extract the ROM file, and delete 'assert' sentence structure at
'META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script' and re-extract the ROM file. Then flash!
After you flash MultiROM zip, you can see 'MultiROM Fail' error message.
In this case, Go to 'Advanced - Multirom - ListROM - Your second rom - Flash zip'
and flash compatible kernel for your secondary ROM.

If you wanna use F2FS partition, wipe /data, /cache as f2fs file system with TWRP recovery.
Flashing guide
- Follow the instructions of aroma-installer!
Don't be afraid when you flash F2FS kernel! F2FS has more longer first boot time than EXT4 Filesystem!!!
Battery Life : 10~12 hours in my phone
Jolla-kernel's all features only fully-working at TricksterMod application. There could be some features which are not working at other kernel controll apps.
We are trying to make better kernel everytime. Please understand us effort. :laugh:
jolla-kernel is released with a lots of test in other testphones.
But if you have a bug, Report plz.

Download link doesn't work
Nicee, thank you!
Sorry
I've just fixed. If you are downloading with your phone, try Chrome. Chrome supports FTP client
Downloading right now, will report about the stability and performance after trying it a while. A stock kernel with kexec hard boot would be really helpful. (I would build myself but sadly do not have time these days)
Oh... I think my friend will read every replies in this Thread and fix it daily and release more stable kernel.

Somehow this didn't work on my Carbon gee ROM. I mean, it works, but no matter what governor, voltages, etc in trickstermod, cpu always stays on 81mhz to around 150mhz, bringing the phone to a crawl. Maybe it's because I didn't wipe dalvik, I don't know.
Hmmm... I checked that this kernel is working at Axxionkat, Carbon, GEE Cyanogenmod Roms which are compaitable with MOD kernel.... how about wipe cache, dalvik cache or Flashing rom again...? I think that's not kernel problem
Sent from my LG-E975 using XDA Free mobile app
I try use this kernel on CyanogenMod 11 Nightly, and doesn't work. I installed zip and wipe cache and dalvik, but when I reboot the phone, have a blackscreen.
This kernel is for GEE ROMs. Official CM (E975) is for Gproj. Gproj ROMs are not compaitable with this kernel.

use google chrome.
And I found a new XDA Relink error.
the download URL is ftp://ras.jollaman999.com:8221 but when we automatically redirected by XDA, It is relinking to ftp//ras.jollaman999.com:8221. There's no ':'
I fixed link http:// instead of ftp://

I like this kernel, except...bootanimation =.=". Flash in AxxionKAT and it replace my bootanimation by original CyanogenMOD bootanimation :laugh:
Is the kernel supposed to be 22mbs? I only asked because normally kernels are between 5 and 8mbs

because this kernel added bootanimation.zip, and it's 17MB
the title is a little confusing here. I mean E975 CM is gproj. Some may think that there's a kind of paradox in the tilte. gee and CM. We shouldn't try this kernel on E975 (geehrc) CM based ROMs like pacman, mokee, and...

Q&A
Below I added some basic Q&A stuff which here so hopefully it will answer most of your questions!
Q: How to get into Download Mode?
A: Power off your phone, than hold: home + volume down + power on button until you see the download mode.
Q: How to get into Recovery Mode?
A: Power off your phone, than hold: home + volume up + power on button until you see the recovery mode.
Q: I get verification failed at start up!?!? My phone is broken now?
A: Yes, you have to buy a new phone now. Just kidding You did not disable force encryption in TWRP (how to do so you will find below in how to decrypt your phone).
Q: I get FRP LOCK? WHYYYYYY???
A: Very simple answer, you did not enable OEM Unlock in developer options. Now you need to flash full rom with odin again and start from scratch. But don't forget to enable OEM Unlock this time!
Q: I got FC's and other Problems with the kernel, what to do?
A: Take a logcat for me, developers use to say: without a log, it never happened . A logcat can be grapped with a PC and ADB installed, simply type: adb logcat > log.txt while your phone is connected and the error is happening.
Q: What kind of logs can I provide to help you?
A: Logcat: This one is for general infos about FC's
DMESG: this is for kernel related things
Last_Kmsg: this can be used after a random reboot
Q: How to get logs?
A: 1. Connect your phone to your pc
2. Make sure you got usb debugging enabled
3. Install Minimal ADB tool
4. After install open it and type: adb logcat > logcat.txt, adb shell dmesg > dmesg.log, adb shell cat proc/last_kmsg kmsg.log
5. Send me the file you got
Q: Which devices are supported at the moment?
A: Current supported devices are: SM-G930F/FD/W8. All other exynos models can work but are UNTESTED
Q: Is this kernel working on Snapdragon 820 variants?
A: No, sadly not.
Q: Help, I never had a code and now after installing the rom my phone asks for a password??
A: Your device is still encrypted, on step 0 it tells you to be sure you're not. So, what do you need to to in case you are still encrypted:
1. Boot into TWRP
2. Select Wipe
3. Select wipe data
4. Then you manually need to type "yes" with the keyboard
5. Confirm the wipe (this will remove the encryption)
6. Reboot your recovery
Q: Is there a way to get rid of encryption which is simpler?
A: Not really, you could also wipe data with stock recovery but this is quite a big hassle so above method works better.
Q: On TWRP there is an error about /data mount, what to do?
A: Your device is encrypted, follow the above steps to get rid of your encryption.
Q: Synapse shows no UCI support!
A: Reflash kernel, a script of you may overwrite my synapse config
Q: I want to switch kernel, how?
A: Since we have systemless xposed and systemless supersu, we have patches in ramdisk of boot.img. This means you have to reflash xposed and supersu after every change of kernel!.
Q: I lost root after installing this rom. What to do?
A: All mods (like supersu, phh's root, xposed and magisk) are stored in /ramdisk of kernel boot.img. So if you flash this rom, and after this another kernel (Which has supersu included by default) you can not do much. You have to stick to the two kernels provided in rom. Also when switching kernel, you need to flash all related zips again after changing it. Last tip: Do not use magisk until you really need it for android pay!
Q: I got random reboots, heeelp!
A: This is most likely from a custom kernel, if you face random reboots please check if you have the latest kernel installed or switch back to the stock kernel included in the rom.
Q: My screen is kind of yellow/orange and the touchscreen doesn't work at all!
A: You have chosen the wrong kernel in aroma selection. Reflash the rom without any wipe selecting the right kernel version.
First! DL now and flashing! Thanks for the hard work!

Will apps like easyHome (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jamworks.easyhome) work? It uses FP as capactive home button.
Flashed and running awesome so far, haven't messed with any of the settings yet though.

Great!!!!Thank you for your works!!!!
Thanks for this kernel. I like the zzmoove governor. But if i choose him on little my phone freezes and than it reboots. At big it's ok

Zzmoove does hotplug, but the little cores can't do hotplugging. So it will reboot

Any chance that you will add..
1) ARCH_POWER
2) ROW Scheduler
3) Make Power Efficient WorkQueues user-configurable in next version
4) Trim kernel and remove useless debuggers, bloated kernel drivers and so on for making the kernel as slim and battery / performance friendly as possible
5) (Perhaps) configurable C-States (Idle states) ?
Just as some bonus, useful stuff in v2.0?

1. Arch power has been removed on mainstream kernel
2. ROW was my plan as well
3. It is enabled by default, but isn't it already tuneable?
4. This is always my goal
5. Haven't thought about that until now

Finally it's come！Will it be implement the FP function to the future build？

i don't think so coz it will totally stop the FP SVC when u flash this kernel
Another question. Can you add undervolting?

Yes it's already in the kernel but not all kernel apps can detect that. Will add stweaks and/or synapse support for this soon

Ok. With Kernel Adiutor i don't see it
