Hi there,
I'm browsing forum for quite a time recently, mostly reading stuff about One V, but I've still got some questions.
Due to the fact, that my exp in rooting stopped with i5700 2.3 rooting, and things seems more complex right now, I've got some doubts:
1. what is "Bootloader" - looks quite new to me, even I've rooted phones before
2. what is "RUU"
3. which is most stable kernel at the time?
4. is it safe to overclock cpu for 1,5ghz and is new performance worth doing that? (i.e what is new battery drain after doing that)
5. what is PRIMO? ("Here all available ROMs for Primo")
6. is there any super-stable ROM with no extra stuff?
7. what files do I need to un-brick or restore software to basics? (in order to have guarantee fix for no fee)
I would really appreciate answers!
There is too much pages to dig in to find it on your own, and above list should help not only me.

If you consider "safe" as running without crashes.
Then yes it is save. It seems that nearly every One V is capable of doing up to max 1.5GHz
allthough it is always possible that it is not. Thats the "fun" part of OC
More then 1.5GHz seems to work stable only on "selected" devices so
its a matter of "luck"
If it is worth?
Actually this is a hard question and not a yes/no one
since it heavily depends on your "usage workflow"

5. what is PRIMO? ("Here all available ROMs for Primo")

Primo is the "device name" of the HTC One V
There are actually two "flavors" PrimoU and PrimoC (GSM vs. CDMA)

how to find that?
1. what is "Bootloader" - looks quite new to me, even I've rooted phones before
The bootloader in regards of your Spica's (have one of those too) is the cwm. The spica had a cwm based recovery too, we have the official one for now.
2. what is "RUU"
ROM Update Utility.
Speaking of spica, it is like the download mode, what you used at the rooting at leshak's pda file.
The difference is that it isn't you who goes to download mode, but the phone to flash mode. The RUU if the phone has the stock recovery can reflash the stock firmware of the phone.
3. which is most stable kernel at the time?
The stock
4. is it safe to overclock cpu for 1,5ghz and is new performance worth doing that? (i.e what is new battery drain after doing that)
It won't blow up, if you mean that. Of course it will heat up more, will consume more power, but will be faster. If it is worth or not is based on your usage. (I don't use it, because I don't need it at the time at least
5. what is PRIMO? ("Here all available ROMs for Primo")
In regards again. The Samsung i5700 was called Galaxy Spica. The HTC One V is called PRIMO
BUT Primou has 2 (or 3) types. PrimoU PrimoC and PrimoDS (U= U.S. or world-wide GSM, C=CDMA, DS=Dual SIM GSM (have not encountered even one, but has ruu's)
6. is there any super-stable ROM with no extra stuff?
The phone is new enough, so super stable roms are stock enhanchment at the moment, there is CM9 development going on with steam power, so better be prepared .
7. what files do I need to un-brick or restore software to basics? (in order to have guarantee fix for no fee)
If you haven't hard-bricked your phone, then adb.exe, fastboot.exe, some dll's the RUU of your phone and the stock recovery file.
See for this thread:[RECOVERY] Stock recoveries for the One V
I would really appreciate answers!

Titanium and KISS ATM, but stock is the most stable out of them atm.

google is your friend and the search button at top right
If you use Virgin Mobile in the US it is CDMA for sure.
From the software version or the phone's CID you can see it.

Since I am the "maintainer" of the KISS kernel let me try to
explain it the following way
The KISS kernel tries to be "as close to stock" as possible
including mostly additional stuff like OC. If you dont
"enable" any of those features it actually IS 99.99% stock
The Titanium kernel contains more changes and tweaks therefore
will be more performant. It is also based on a newer kernel version
as stock and also contains bugfixes that are neither in stock nor in KISS

CFS scheduler???
This is the default process scheduler for android kernels
Or do you mean CFQ I/O scheduler?
So dont you mix up process schedulers and I/O schedulers?

You got me on that, yes I meant the I/O sceduler.
thx guys for all the replies, when I get home need to study that for a while, but now 2 more questions:
can you tell me more, what is "s-off" in One and what is with that "I/O sceduler" ?

S-OFF means basicly that security off. With this you can even change the partition table of the phone, with the phone in S-ON it meant that you can change some of the partitions data (including kernel and data) but you can't change for example the CID of your phone (or you can't do the so-caller debrand).
For is it needed or not I can't really tell, but it is a possibility to attain some of the phones hidden potential
For I/O sceduler wiki is your friend. You have probably seen them in the Spica development. There they used the CFS and BFS at my time.

CFQ I/O scheduler is already part of the stock kernel (therefore it is also in KISS)
Stock has noop, deadline and CFQ with deadline beeing the default
For a device like the One V I think deadline is better then CFQ

Didn't know (but didn't tried ) that the stock has more I/O scedulers...
I have knowledge from my old phones, therefore I use cfq (my older phones had better battery life with it) but I acknowledge that the V outstands them in every way...

First is an O/C kernel that I built from the HTC source. This kernel is stable and with the right profiles setup in setCPU has given me very good battery life. I'm giving coolbho3000 credit here as his post in the G2 forums is what helped me to do this. I am also acknowledging gr8gorilla who helped me several times through this process. Second is a kernel built from the latest CM kernel zource from zinx. It has proven to be very stable (after tweaking the voltages).
Now for the boring part ... If you choose to flash this you do it at your own risk. I am in no way, shape, or form responsible if you flash this and your phone turns into a paperweight. Once again, flash this at your own risk.
There, now that that is out of the way we can get on to the good stuff.
Make sure you choose the right kernel. The stock kernel will break your CM install if you flash it.

These kernels have no issue with video. If you are having trouble with youtube and such update your GB rom to one of the newest. There was a memory leak in the source for the rom itself that zinx has fixed. Thirty to Forty-Five minutes of straight youtube action and I had no problem at all.

I have packaged this into an update.zip format that you can flash through your custom recovery. Simply choose to install a zip from the sdcard and pick the update package to install it. It will install the wifi driver at the same time so you don't need to worry about that. Everything works with this kernel so far for me if you have any problems please post them and I'll see what I can do to fix them.
Remember that you hardware is not the same as your neighbor's so while he may be able to max the settings out and run stable your device may need to be set to a lower clock speed to run stable.
Source code for both kernels has been added to github. If you want to play around with them download source from here: https://github.com/grankin01
Happy Modding/Devving!
wow, thank you sir
I was just about to start testing kernels with Zinx's CM6 anyway. Looks like yours is first.
hmmm... could not run update.zip through clockworkmod. I was looking to extract the files and push them manually, however, I don't see a zImage file to push.
No luck with the miui rom. Cant get past the splash screen.

hey guys. im a noob to android. every other phone i have had has been winmo. i wanted to try this oc kernel because it seems easier to install than the gorilla one. however i ran into a problem when installing. i have a stock rom 2.2.1, perm rooted s=off, using clockwork recovery. i backed up my rom and flashed via rom manager. it then began to send me into a boot loop never getting past the first screen. just kept turning off and rebooting. soooooo i rebooted directly into clockwork and tried to do it from there and the same thing happened. so i restored my recovery and now everything is back to normal. can anyone point me in the right direction? i did notice that in clockwork it gave me two options to flash the kernel or to flash an update from the sd card. should i have flashed the update zip instead of the kernel or flash both.. sorry im a partial noob. i know how to use adb a lil and the emulator, this is the first thing i flashed on my phone and nearly had a heart attack from thinking i was bricked! any help is appreciated
Do you already have setCPU installed? Not everyone's phone will be able to reach the maximum speed without bootlooping or locking up. Just the nature of the beast. Try setting your speed down in setCPU (if you already have it installed) and turn set at boot off and then flashing and rebooting. Then you can test the speeds one by one to know what is working for you.
Edit: New kernel for CM and MIUI is nearly ready. 1.8Ghz with over 3200 on quadrant!!!

Only in the lower frequencies. The higher frequencies weren't stable running lower voltages.
Thanks OP. When you say the lower ranges, at which MHz did you not UV? Just curious. I am thinking of not OC'ing more than 1.4MHz and didnt know if I would get the UV benefit.

UPDATE 2015\08\01 ICS & JB Patch
Since ICS and JB contain boosted (modified boostedass) and sio by default now, I made a cwm zip to patch the default values of boosted and sio's correct values (they're for cfs in CM9\10). This is not for CM7 and won't work with it.*
Link to Post
UPDATE 2015\05\16 DroidXGovernorsV2.2
Removed blank bootmenu folder
Cleaned up init script, removed unsupported lines, added supported lines
Included SD Card Cache Tweak with 2048 value, to match io tweaks
**The lines weren't supported on Bravo Froyo Kernel, added new lines from /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/iosched**
**If the removed lines are supported on GB Kernel, let me know and I'll make a zip for each kernel.**
**Just remove the last 2 lines of the init script if you don't want\need the SD Cache Tweak**
UPDATE 2015\05\15 DroidXGovernorsV2.1
Screenshots showing battery savings and usage
Fixed dumb script error
UPDATE 2015\05\15 DroidXGovernorsV2
Removed Undervolted Cpu Clocks -- Gave problems for Defy+ useres on GB kernel
SIO IO Scheduler now properly loads -- No market app needed now.
This CWM compatible zip will install the DroidX smartassv2 and BOOSTEDassV2 cpu governors as well as the SIO Kernel Scheduler. While I've only tested this on CM9, it should work on ANY rom with init.d support and Defy 2nd-init Bootmenu....meaning all CM7\9 and Miui roms. I'm unsure if MS2Ginger and Stock Froyo have init.d support. It also undervolts the rom to [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected] Those values work fine with CM9 on my phone, meaning no fc's due from being too undervolted.
To install, simply flash the zip in cwn and you're done. Wiping Cache and Dalvik Cache isn't necessary.
To use the Governors, select the governor in the CM Performance Menu and select apply on boot, or use a CPU Governor program from the market. I recommend No Frills CPU Control --- its free, no ads, no bs permissions, and you can select the io scheduler.
To use the SIO Kernel Scheduler, install No Frills Cpu Control from the market and select SIO (or noop) from the bottom menu.
I haven't used SIO very much (5-10 mins now), but it seems to be working well. The noop scheduler works great, and is what I normally use; but I've always read good things about SIO (and wanted to use it), so I thought I'd include it as well.
I'd give thanks to the authors of the Governors and Schedulers, but I have no idea who wrote them....I only found them in Beanstown106's DroidX Miui V4 rom and they happen to work wonderfully on the Bravo.
UPDATE Post
SimpleOverclock
An alternative to No Frills CPU Control with profile support, apply on boot, io changer, governor changer, & more features to come. Probably going to be my new overclock app, need to test for more than a few minutes.
My Little Experiment
I uploaded the governors here for the Bravo, and to Mediafire for the Defy. In the first 2 hours of posting -- 6 Bravo downloads to 45 Defy Downloads (and a page full of posts). Not very surprising, but interesting none-the-less.
*CM7 - The modules for boosted and sio aren't included with this patch making it useless for CM7. I've already released a patched CM7 with this in my Kang thread.

I'd give thanks to the authors of the Governors and Schedulers, but I have no idea who wrote them....I only found them in Beanstown106's DroidX Miui V4 rom and they happen to work wonderfully on the Bravo.
UPDATE Post
SimpleOverclock
An alternative to No Frills CPU Control with profile support, apply on boot, io changer, governor changer, & more features to come. Probably going to be my new overclock app, need to test for more than a few minutes.
My Little Experiment
I uploaded the governors here for the Bravo, and to Mediafire for the Defy. In the first 2 hours of posting -- 6 Bravo downloads to 45 Defy Downloads (and a page full of posts). Not very surprising, but interesting none-the-less.

I figured that I'd let you all know that Epsylon3 is going to add BOOSTEDassV2 (boosted) to the bootmenu, and its already supported with his Touch Recovery. No eta on anything, but its good news.
I'm loving the BOOSTEDassV2 governor! I have my voltages a bit high right now and I'm still getting great battery life with the really slick scaling. Thanks a ton for these!

Me too. I was using them for about a week before I released them. I didn't realize how good they were until I installed CM9 2012\05\12 without them and used conservative. Boosetdass stock runs more efficient and smoother than a heavily tweaked conservative (which I usually get good results with).
I'm just glad that they picked up support from Epsylon3.
I'm currently working on an init script to tweak the BOOSTEDassV2 and smartassv2 settings like the other governors have in the bootmenu. Placing them in 04govandio causes boot to freeze, so I'm gonna make a 98govloader (pick governor) 99asstweaker (tweak smart\boosted) and go from there.
While Epsy is adding them into the bootmenu, there's no telling when Quarx will merge in those changes and provide a new build with them. Besides, its nice having a script that's easy to edit.

Hi everybody. First of all I'm not developer. I just compile the latest 3.0.50 Virtuous Kernel with smartassV2 and lazy governors for myself but I decide to share it. I was really surprised when I saw only vanilla governors without the new modern and fancy smartass, lagfree, interactivex etc. On my old G1 smartassV2 give really good improve.
If someone doesnt know what are the governors in kernel - please read here.
If somebody wants to test it I will appreciate a lot some feedback. If the result from test isn't so satisfying I will pimp a bit the governor for more battery friendly settings.
My final idea is to pull the kernel with more from the good governors lagree, interactiveX and maybe Intellidemand and then to make pull request. I'm open for feedback and suggestions before commiting the changes.
Install:
Download kernel_with_governors.zip for sense roms and place it on sdcard. Flash into recovery. It's all! Enjoy of your new governors.
Change the covernor:
I recommend for changing the governors using of No-frills CPU Control , AnTuTu CPU Master (both of apps allow scheduler changing) or SetCPU ( search in forum for free version or donate in the market )
Setup:
I feel best performance with smartassV2 governor and deadline scheduler!
My Sources
My GitHUB
update 01.10:
Kernel code name "Hushi" - this kernel deserve some name
Implement DMA Buf - the biggest change in this release. More about Buffer Management
A lot of patches - For more info checkout my github
update 15.08:
Switch to SLOB allocator instead of SLAB
Used latest CB toolchain
update 30.06:
Added force fast charge patch!
notes to get it working :
1 Install Fast Charge app /it is free/
2. The most important - toggle fast charge on and then plug the pc cable otherwise fast charging don't work! /don't be noob like me/
update 24.06:
Added Row Scheduler
Added FIFO Scheduler
update 08.03:
Updated cpu frequency
Added patch to allow lower wifi signals
update 13.01:
Added Lionheart governor
Added interactiveX governor
Added patch for enable swaptoken only when swap is full
Build with CB toolchain instead of linaro
update 12.01:
SmartassV2 governor is set to be default instead ondemand
Added lagfree governor
Enabled BFQ scheduler by request
Added Patch for release swapcache more aggressively
Reboot phone 5 sec after update the kernel

hey thanks for the added governors, in the gen y visionx r3 thread qriozum posted a compiled kernel that was v3.0.56.1 post #1489 you could probably ask him where his git is. also if you could, it would be nice to see a kernel with 2 way call recording, as i have heard that its easy to implement in the kernel.. but thanks for this.
btw, just saw that in his sig he has 3.0.57, also check his post history.
also, if you could include the new bfq scheduler and allow the minimum clock speed to be set to 128mhz, that'd be great. thanks!

Thanks for reply. I will ask qriozum for the newer sources For the scheduler I don’t think the bfq is good chose because noop and deadline are more battery frendly than it, or if you use swap cfq work better with swap defragmentation For minimum clock speed I must research more if this is possible Thanks again.

someone already tried this on other aosp roms?

I dont think so. But if you are disturbed about it the safest way is to do backup in the recovery and if something goes wrong just restore the backup I rarely test new roms but before flash every time I make fresh backup of my current rom if I dont like the new one restoring is easy

Fo sho big :good: for supercharging. I use it from very log time About the improvements are only kernel related - first i will remove some unnecessary options like himem support( it's needed for system with 4G and more ram ) and some formats this will decrease a bit size and boot time(aron few ms), also I will play with CONFIG_HZ value and enabling of sysvipc, cgroups and bfq scheduler too

I just flashed this kernel on my DZ with aokp,
booted and restarted like the description,

wifi is not activable, not working at all
I'll remove the battery and reboot.
edit nothing to do, still not working,
the toggle in notification bar is grey out and i'm having now the text scrambled on all icons.

Hi
I have been testing a new kernel I built. It is based on the CM kernel, and I have tweaked it with some of the voltage mods and OC settings from the wind kernel. For good measure I added a couple of governors in as well. Oh and i updated the kernel to 3.0.91
Changes
lulzactive governor and smartass2 added: there is a playstore app for tuning the lulzactive http://tegrak2x.blogspot.ca/2011/11/lulzactive-governor-v2.html
Update to linux 3.0.91
OC and voltage tweaks from wind kernel
Personal experience
lulzactive governer seems to work great for me.
My phone maxed out at 1782 MHZ, this has been very stable for me (at 1836MHZ my phone had random reboots).
Antutu benchmark 10,131 (With straight CM benchmarks was 9.376)
Installation: reboot into recovery install zip. To revert flash ROM.
NOTE THIS WILL ONLY WORK WITH A CM-11 ROM. Pac rom needs a different boot image built.
Also note this is only built for a p930, I do not have the other models to test this rom against
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
I take no responsibilities for any damages

I have seen a BSOD, (it is rare) upon investigation the only weird thing I found was that "ps" listed a dozen processes but does not return. Every other command seemed to work fine. I have not found anyone that can explain what that means or how to troubleshoot this further.

All CM releases are based on the opensource code released by LG for the p930. The kernel has been patched in various ways to make it compatible with kitkat. The android open source kernel project does makes it difficult to update the actual kernel so it remains at release 3.0.31.

Looking at upgrading 3.4 kernel from miroslav sphinx kernel https://github.com/JellyBeanNitro/kernel-iproj-3.4/ to make it compatible. Cannot use the patch sets from iproj since they are for a 3.0.31 kernel so I am using the patches from android_kernel_google_msm to update the 3.4 kernel to be compatible.

For more information about ION Memory manager check the link below:
http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.gr/2013/08/the-android-ion-memory-manager.html
As far as I know the kernel we now have is not ION.
For some other devices, developers were able to make new kernels based on this new memory manager. From what I understand - and I am no expert - this solves lots of issues with newer drivers etc. In the other device I had, all the camera issues were gone after the kernel was updated to support ION. Then it was much easier to upgrade it to 3.4.
With such a kernel I guess it will be much easier to have future versions of android for our devices, since generic drivers can be used for all the components of our phone and of course run kitkat flawlessly.
---------- Post added at 03:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:45 PM ----------
I have installed your kernel and so far so good.
Since you mention overclocking in your first post, could you post a table with frequencies and relative voltage that your device at least seems to be coping fine?
How would you characterize lulzactive governor's battery performance?

With lulzactive governor I am getting around 20-24 hour rom usage provided no BSOD. I will work on a voltage chart. I built a kernel with HONO's voltage and OC tweaks. I also added the 3 governors he had in his as well. Personally I really like the current ROM and my phone wont go above the 1786, but maybe someone elses phone can reach the 1924 ..
However if miroslav_mm posts his 3.4 kernel source I will likely be distracted by for a while -
Nz
I am stable at 1836...I have run multiple times AnTuTu and 3Dmark and it hasn't frozen a single time.
I really hope though that you get distracted with miroslav_mm's kernel. Maybe you could work together and find a workaround for the camera...
Can you build this kernel for SU640, please?
Thank you

just want to know if there is any update...
I am using CM11 Aug 10 built + Gapps 20140606 built, after flashing this kernel, some apps installed would be disappeared (e.g. Plus, Hangout, Book, Titanium Backup, Firefox, ...)... For Plus, Hangout, Book, these should be in gapps already, dunno where have they gone.
For the others, I could simply reinstall the apps.
Is it compatibility problem of the kernel?
Am I need factory reset after flashing the kernel?

Am I need factory reset after flashing the kernel?

Been working with 3.4 kernel of miroslav lately, nothing new ...
Nz
Hello guys,
I recently began kernel development. For the first thing I'd like to credit @YoshiShaPow it wouldn't be possible without you man! Thanks a ton for your help with this!
Working:
Everything
This kernel is built of stock sony sources with LINARO so it's already buttery smooth compared to stock sony kernel
I'll propably update this kernel really often because as soon as I get some time I quit gaming and work on the kernel instead. It's much more enjoyable for me (and no, I don't suck at gaming, PM me if you want to play BO2 one on one or in a team against others)
Features: (this list will expand like hell really soon, at v1 it's just what's listed here, as I'll be adding stuff to the kernel this list will slowly grow, so if you're not interested remember to check back soon if the features of my kernel would interest you after a few updates)
added interactive governor
Linaro toolchain optimizations
Added intelliplug CPU driver!
WIP: (whatever comes to my mind that I'll be working on will be put here)
enabled KSM (I might have added it already, I'm not sure ^^ )
setting intelliplug is as a default CPU hotplug driver instead of the stock one
configuring kernel instead of having to configure it manually
Download:
HERE - press DOWNLOAD NOW because "download" is an advertisment and will not download my kernel to your drive.
How to flash?
fastboot flash boot mojbootv2.img
or (noob way)
start flashtool
connect your device to the PC in fastboot mode
press on lightning icon in flashtool
choose fastboot
doomlord - right side of the popup window
flash kernel using doomlords way
check the flashtool main window if it says "OKAY" or "OK" after writing boot
pull out the cable from your phone
start your phone
done
About overclocking:
There are some Snapdragon SoC screening issues, so even if you set it above 2.15 GHz it will still not go above 2.15GHz for whatever reason. My Z1 also runs really hot on stock kernel sometimes so I guess that I'll not be adding this. The kernel is already good enough to run everything on my phone at 960MHz smoothly, so I don't really even need more powerful CPU and for this reason I'll not be adding this. Maybe in the future, for the sakes of learning how to add overclocking possibilites, but don't take my word on this. I'll have to get rid of more important features of the kernel in my mind first, then I'll MAYBE add O/C. I just see no point in adding O/C if my phone is already fast as hell at 960MHz way below max stock frequency...
Please do write how the kernel feels for you. I did this for myself, but I'd really like to hear some feedback from you on how it runs.
For best battery (my main goal with this kernel)
download Kernel Adiutor
from the side bar:
CPU
MAX 960MHz,
governor - interactive,
governor tunables - hispeed_freq = 960000, go_hispeed_load=90
Multicore Power Saving = Enabled
CPU Hotplug
Disable MPDecision
Enable IntelliPlug
IntelliPlug profile = conservative
Disable Touch Boost
GPU
Max frequency=320MHz
Your battery will work forever and your phone will still be A LOT faster than on stock
Good to see some new stock based kernels around here! I am going to try this later on!

Thanks, please let me know how the kernel does for you after you flash it.
Thx

Will do! Once I get my ordered and brand new white Z3, I'm going to flash this on my Z1
Stay tuned

You can already flash it. I am safe to say that this kernel is even more stable than full stock one. Battery life is amazing if you disable mpdecision cpu hotplug and set cpu scaling to 960mhz max. It's perfectly smooth on 960mhz. I'll have to switch default hotplug driver with the intelliplug to get even better battery life. It's already really good after you do what I said before, try it by yourself! :highfive:
Sounds very appealing to me Does it support multirom?

Is this kernel have s2w, d2tw ??
Hmm, i can't see hotplugx or pegasusq
all same stock kernel

it will support multirom for sure. I'll just have to implement kexec-hardboot patch as the multirom recovery is already included

Correct.
Thx for creating this kernel my friend Good work!
Now add some I/O, Gov, sound control, gamma, TCP and some decent overclock/feature and I'm in............
Colour/Gamma controls
Could you please add screen controls from this link to your kernel :

Thank you !
@olokos maybe you can start from v22 of doomlord and add new features

I will not start from doomlord source. His code is buggy and my phone even didn't boot once after I flashed his kernel on my Z1. The reason behind that is simple - he is building kernels for TONS of devices and I focus on the Z1, nothing else. I want a stable, fast and battery-friendly kernel. That means that I need a kernel that wouldn't be buggy, that wouldn't cause any errors and issues because of poor coding. I need to build a stock kernel from fresh sources. Right now I'll be redownloading stock sony sources and I'll try to build it tomorrow. I don't know if wifi works because I have broken files on my current stock ROM. I'll propably reflash it in the morning and I'll update if the WiFi works. This is my rom issue, not the kernel issue whatsoever, thats why I can't test wifi, because I already broke my WiFi before compiling a kernel.

Thanks a lot mate! I'll do that as soon as I'll get it to compile again and to the state that my PC could compile it like it did before. ^^

Personally, I'm not interested at all in this, but using stock sony color calibration app you should be able to use it already without any changes from my side. Stock sony kernel supports it and I'm using stock sony kernel base here.
PS. I'll focus on kernel optimizations because optimized kernel = fast response and long lasting battery. Sony didn't give a damn about battery when building a Z1, they just threw 3k mAh battery on it, nothing else. I truly think that they did not optimize the kernel properly. Next update will be purely optimization, that means that this kernel will work faster and your phone will last even more on battery after flashing it!
Can you add doble tap function to your kernel? Venkat kamesh did this on his kernel, but phone desn't go on deep sleep... Thanks!
Olokos thx for making this kernel.
Could you make flashable zip of it?

I might make it happen, but only if I manage to get the phone to go to deep sleep. If it won't go to deep sleep then it won't be included in my kernel, simple as that, as I want my kernel to be stable, fast and battery friendly, features are on the 2nd page.

There's no point, if you're unable to flash the kernel via fastboot then you propably are also unable to use it's features. I have no interest in doing that.
