[KERNEL] JB Mods Source code for developers. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

All patches uploaded will work on JB. But they may not work with ICS kernels.
I am not responsible for screwing up your github repository.
apply patches like this:
"git am <patchfile>"
I wanted to put them all together because it's easier than looking around everywhere. Don't just blindly copy paste them.

[KERNEL SOURCES] Galaxy nexus

Since various kernel sources are spread around the internet and the developers should be able to find sources easily.
So they can improve there kernel I will link to all kernel sources in this thread.

If you think sources are missing just send me a PM. Oh and if you are using a commit from someone else please give a credit ofcourse . In the future maybe adding threads links.
Might be useful to make this a sticky.

[KERNEL][ICS][22.02.2012] Team Eos ROM - kernel collaboration & kernel thread

Hi guys,
in the future I will post the current modified kernel-source for the Team Eos ROM for kernel I'm using on my Xoom (and probably also the current compiled )
edit1:
current kernel-source - which I'm using with nightly #49 right now - is here:
Kernel Source:
tiamat-kernel-mod on github
update:
latest branch is at:
ics_tiamat_mod07
Installation:
either compile the kernel via ./xoom.sh and then flash the zip-package in release/Xoom
or
flash the attached compiled kernel in this post (which I'm currently using)
md5sum: ce0fdf52a8b0e28b6028a0e9cbd3f834 release/Xoom/ICS_20120222_Platypus_for_Xoom_r6.zip
Characteristics:
- hardfloat floating point (up to 40% more performance) + VFP-optimized flags
- cgroups timer slack to group together similar tasks to improve (lessen) cpu load [and potentially improve battery runtime]
- ck-patchset (by Con Kolivas): more efficient memory management & preparation for improved swap handling
- mmc/microSD card increased write timeout: fix against data loss when writing to slow cards
- quiet binder: (might not be a problem on this kernel but just in case)
- mmc: core: Claim host while freeing card: fix a BUG_ON while removing the sdcard
- pmem: fix buddy free memory corruption bug
- LOAD_FREQ (4*HZ+61) to avoid loadavg Moire
- more tighter CFS (cpu scheduler) timings: more smoothness and less delay / lags
- conservative governor tweak: to make it a min/max governor
- unlikely-likely cleanups & optimizations: less false branch-prediction
- vmscan: move referenced VM_EXEC pages to active list
- enable advanced congestion control (for network) & set YeAH TCP to be the default
- a few filesystem/inode integrity improvements
- improved memcpy & memmove
- nohz/sched: delay going tickless when CPU is loaded should in total cut down power consumption e.g. while MP3 playback
- FuguMod network security enhancements (thx to nikademus !)
- add nofail variants of kmalloc kcalloc kzalloc for the filesystems
- BFQ i/o scheduler v3-r2 for 2.6.39
- to be built with Linaro 4.5 toolchain
- graphite + other optimization flags [testing & need feedback - battery, performance, stability, etc.]
- kernel compiled with stack-smashing protector support
- UACCESS_WITH_MEMCPY disabled (higher latency)
- syncookies enabled
- (access to) DEVMEM & DEVKMEM disabled
- paranoidly initialize SD
- make kernel panic & reboot during hardlock
- debug memory during bootup (once)
- add some crypto algorithms
- add support for unaligned accesses (more performance)
- improved sha1-implementation
- smartass V2 governor (for testing)
- remove the generic_file_aio_read() plug [should improve performance & fix a regression - not sure if it plays that much of a role on the Xoom]
update:
some more stuff got added (among those: tailored CFLAGS to the tegra2 architecture/processor) - will add those here in the list later
Kudos:

Coolbho3000
Solarnz
Kcrudup
Cybertronic
Steady Hawkin
TDR
Bazar6
and all the other kernel devs out there
DISCLAIMER: the kernel (binary) and driver modules are provided as is. If problems occcur they most probably are from upstream and can be fixed with the newest version. Since I'm doing this in my free spare time as a hobby (quenching my thirst for tweaks & performance) updates will occur irregularly as time permits and I see fit (most probably when new features & bugfixes arrive). YOU are responsible for the actions that you take (such as over- or underclocking), etc. You agree that I can not be held liable for any potential damage that arises from your actions in combination with or the usage of this kernel and other related parts.
edit0:
a few questions for the start:
- anyone attempted & was crazy enough to test grsecurity stuff on their kernel ?
- until now I only flashed the kernel via fastboot flash:raw and by linking to the initramfs - how to build the gzipped cpio file into the kernel ?
--> adding it to CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="" ?
Looking forward to improving the Xoom experience !
Thanks !

*) nope the whole repo is cloned, not sure if there's on option only to clone ics branch
*) you need an ARM toolchain to compile it (e.g. https://android-build.linaro.org/ , use 4.5 toolchain for this; https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/toolchain-4.5-2011.10/)
*) it naturally should be make stingray_defconfig - but better get the config from the running kernel on your Xoom zcat /proc/config.gz and place it in arm/arm/configs/tingray_defconfig then attempt to build
hope that helps
I'm currently still looking for SLQB and classic rcu or another more light-weight RCU implementation for the 2.6.39 kernel for SMP
there exists Tiny preemptible RCU but this only for UP (uniprocessor) so doesn't apply
any ideas ?
Ok ok I'll talk with Solarnz and see if we can post something soon. There's been ALOT of config80211 coming from upstream. When we publish it'll be a doozie
And ill publish a version for the module fans out there
ok, got some time to test the BFS scheduler which might have or not have improved battery runtime
but definitely might have improved smoothness (e.g. on the galaxy s it does)
unfortunately it doesn't play nice with the android kernel (such as the same problem occured with the kernel 2.6.35-based kernel on the gt-i9000/galaxys s and only really started to work more or less properly after it got ported to 3.0-kernel)
so there must be another way to improve smoothness ...

Thanks man you made my day !!
Now i got kernel compiled but have the same problem like you without insert initramfs file ... did you fixed these problem ?
Does you could check out if we could combine xoom kernel with V4L Stuff ??
Great would be the chance to get also UVC integrated !!

like bighrushdog or solarnz already answered:
the initramfs is preserved while flashing the kernel via cwm
you can however also extract the initramfs and flash it via fastboot (that's what I usually do)
to be honest I'm currently trying to keep the footprint of kernel development as low as possible for me & I'm rather uninterested in that camera stuff right now
sorry
edit:
@all that are interested:
please give the latest kernel a try and tell what you like or don't like about it (e.g. governors, etc.)
when it works well I'll issue an pull-request to get it "upstream" into the tiamat kernel
the current kernel (ICS_20120222_Platypus_for_Xoom_r6.zip) has been tested on Team Eos nightly #70
Thanks !
Flashed! I hope in a no drain battery. Native gov is Ondemand (where's SmartAssv2?) let's test it and wait few days
EDIT : mmmmmhhhh it seems like CPU doesn't sleep. Keep testing
Sent from my Xoom on EOS ICS Everest
Support USB Mass Storage ?
like rogue kernel support fat-32?

As you know, the modules are the easy part. Implementation is a nightmare and not high on the priority list. However, I've spent the last few days tearing bcmdhd and wpa_supp apart looking for the final piece of the adhoc puzzle. I have alot of info. If you're interested we can open a discussion. Cause its kicking my ass atm
I figured out the adhoc problem but i'm not sure just how to fix it yet. See my post in the EOS rom threads. Also, i merged your mod8 branch with my ics_drivers branch. I'm gonna build and flash. I bet it kicks serious ass!

[SCRIPT] TrulyClean v1.4 - Remove all crappy stuff in no-time! Posted By - schoolsux Added 070313
CHANGES
TrulyClean is a "any rom" script that removes A LOT of crap-apps (98+ apps removed) and other stuff on the phone.
Script will remove about 600mb since version 1.3 (Counted by removing from stock firmware.)
The purpose is to give you a clean start with no extras, much like the Nexus series experience but with the Samsung core intact.
All bloatware apps will be removed running the default script. I even count apps like S Voice and Samsung Hub as unnecessary apps.
Neither do I use Earth or Google+ and don't like these apps to be forced upon me as system apps when they are so easy to install from Play store!
Version 1.4
Script now uses busybox mount method which means script should work fine on any version of the SGS4.
Velvet.apk (Google Now & Search) is no longer removed due to a problem.
[RECOVERY] TWRP 2.6.0.0 touch recovery Posted By - Dees_Troy Updated 070813
Changes
Special Note: If you are running a custom theme, you will likely need to remove that theme before updating to 2.6.0.0 as your custom theme will likely not have some of the new changes visible (e.g. you won't be able to encrypt a backup)!
Can encrypt a backup to prevent theft of private data from your backup files
Updated graphics / icon courtesy of shift
Updated exFAT to latest commits
Fixed a problem with Samsung TouchWiz decryption
Update SuperSU binary
Fixed saving of backup partitions list
Fixed saving of last used zip install folder
Fixed backup of datadata on devices that use a separate partition for datadata
Fixed some issues with the advanced wipe list (android_secure, can now wipe internal storage on data/media deivces and wipe data on the advanced list no longer formats the entire data partition)
Fixed some problems with partitioning a SD card
Various other bug fixes and tweaks

The major revisions are 1.0, 1.1, 1.5 (Cupcake), 1.6 (Donut), 2.0/2.0.1/2.1 (Eclair), 2.2 (Froyo), 2.3 (Gingerbread), 3.0 (Honeycomb - tablet only), 4.0/4.0.1/4.0.2/4.0.3/4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich), and 4.1 (Jellybean). The majority of Android major revisions are named after desserts.
APK
Android PacKage. These are, basically, Android applications and all of their data. They are run via the Dalvik Virtual Machine on your device.
Bootloader
The part of a computer that loads the operating system.
Brain F*ck Scheduler - (BFS)
This scheduler is designed to be simple and speedy tailor specifically for user interface type systems such as desktop/smart phone devices where user interaction is MORE important than serving 1 million web requests (CFS, the default scheduler) at the same time (think of nimble desktop workstations vs large corporate servers).
CleanCache/FrontSwap (via ZCache backend)
Cleancache provides a place where the kernel can put pages which it can afford to lose, but which it would like to keep around if possible. A classic example is file-backed pages which are clean, so they can be recovered from disk if need be. The kernel can drop such pages with no data loss, but things will get slower if the page is needed in the near future and must be read back from disk. Like Cleancache, Frontswap can play tricks with the stored pages to stretch its memory resources. The real purpose behind this mechanism, though, appears to be to enable a hypervisor to respond quickly to memory usage spikes in virtualized guests. Dan put it this way:
Frontswap serves nicely as an emergency safety valve when a guest has given up (too) much of its memory via ballooning but unexpectedly has an urgent need that can't be serviced quickly enough by the balloon driver.
ClockworkMod
A tool that allows you to flash the phone with different ROMs from the phone (without using a PC). This is handy for developers or those who like to play around with different modified ROMs.
Fair Budget Queue (BFQ I/O scheduler)
This I/O scheduler is an improvement on top of Completely Fair Queue (CFQ). CFQ is fair in terms of time but not in terms of throughput / bandwidth, so BFQ make sure that both time and throughput / bandwidth are balanced across all requests.
Fast No Hz RCU (Optimized for SMP operations)
Fast NoHz is an optimized version of the traditional Tree RCU. Many new kernels are using the Tickless NoHz design. This RCU is tailored and designed to work with the new NoHz kernel system.
Flashing
The act of installing a ROM, Kernel, or other Mod (usually contained in a .zip folder) onto an embedded device or emulator.
Joe's RCU (Optimized for Small SMP systems)
Joe Korty has created an RCU for small SMP systems (> 32 cores). His approach is to isolate all the Garbage Collection (GC, a slow time consuming but necessary processing) to a single core, thus allowing other cores to ONLY work on real required processing. This will allow the additional cores to complete their assigned tasks as fast as possible (not bogged down by GC) then immediately go back to a suspended state (saving battery).
Heimdall
alternative to Odin & for "Mac's
Interactive Governor (Performance)
This governor is designed to put more priority to User Interface (UI aka Apps) tasks, therefore appears more responsive then the traditional OnDemand governor. So if you want the smoothest UI interaction, this governor is for you...
Odin
Odin is a Windows program that allows users to push ROMs, radios, and more onto their device from the comfort of their PC.
Overclocking
Increasing the "clock" of a processor to increase its speed at the expense of battery life and possibly your phone. Not all processors overclock the same, even if the hardware is identical. One phone with a Hummingbird SoC will not be able to overclock to 1.2ghz, yet another would be able to overclock to 1.7ghz (not very likely)
Radio/Modem
The parts of a firmware that allow communication between the operating system, the telecommunication hardware, and a mobile network. Some radios give good battery life, some good signal, some neither.
Rooting
A device hack that provides users with unrestricted access to the entire file system of their mobile devices.
Sideloading
To install applications without using the official Android Market.
SLQB - (SLAB allocator with Queue)
This memory allocator is designed for small number of CPUs system (such as desktop or smart phone devices). This allocator is design to be simple and it is optimized for using order-0 pages as much as possible (order-0 pages are the simplest therefore quickest type of memory in a Linux system to allocate). Not all kernels are using SLQB including CM7 main line...
SmartAssV2 Governor (Balanced)
This governor has a built-in "profile" similar to SetCPU, so screen off will use lower clock rate thus conserve more battery, but it also has a fast wake up feature so that user interaction will not see the lag when switching from Sleep to Wake state.... (So SetCPU Profiles are sorta redundant when using this governor, you can still use SetCPU to OC to higher than default Clock frequency).
XDA
his site; XDA Developers was founded for developers by developers. It is now a valuable resource for people who want to make the most of their mobile devices, from customizing the look and feel to adding new functionality.
ZRAM (aka CompCache aka RAMZSwap)
ZRAM is an updated version formally known as CompCache and RAMZSwap. It was originally designed for 2.6.38.xx kernels, I have backported to our 2.6.35.xx kernel. ZRAM allows real-time compression of memory objects in RAM thus reducing memory pressure for the Linux kernel and can keep more apps in memory longer (more apps in RAM == better performance, less fetching from slower MMC or SDCard). Compression, however, is not Free. Some CPU cycles are required to do the compress/decompression, so there's a slight penalty for it. The original CompCache / RAMZSwap required a user space binary to control its behavior which adds additional penalty to performance, but the new version ZRAM eliminated the need for a separate dedicated daemon, thus reducing the overhead and increased performance from the old CompCache by 20%. Therefore, with the newer implementation of ZRAM interface, the performance penalty is almost negligible.

[MOD] VPN/Tether Compatibility Fix for CM10.1 :: 5/29 :: Should work w/most AOSP Posted By - k0nane Added 062013
Info
Stock tether on CM10.1 doesn't play nice if you use a VPN that sends all traffic through it (tested with OpenVPN, redirect-gateway). A few iptables rules later, it does. This fix applies those rules at startup (they're lost on reboot). Like gapps, this fix hooks into addon.d, and will survive CM OTAs.
This should work on any ROM that's based on AOSP, implements addon.d, and uses 192.168.43.x as its tether DHCP range. Don't even try this on stock.

[HOW TO] [ROOT] Motochopper by Dan Rosenberg Posted By - k0nane added 061412
Note:
The UVUAMDL update includes Samsung's silly root-restricting kernel. You'll need to downgrade it or use a custom one to avoid that.
All you need to know, folks. To get the dev options menu, and enable USB Debugging, tap the build number in About Phone until it tells you it's been enabled.
You'll need the drivers.
Unlike on AT&T devices, we do have a return to stock option, though it is not "virgin" as a Samsung-sourced TAR would be.

The Sun JDK is no longer in Ubuntu's main package repository. In order to download it, you need to add the appropriate repository and indicate to the system which JDK should be used.
If you are only interested in the kernel, you may use this guide to download and build the appropriate kernel.
The following instructions assume that you have not downloaded all of AOSP. If you have downloaded all of AOSP, you may skip the git clone steps other than the step to download the actual kernel sources.
We will use the Pandaboard kernel in all the following examples
[HOW TO]Developing Kernels Posted By - serendipityguy added 062913
Developing Kernels
To work with the Android code, you will need to use both Git and Repo. In most situations, you can use Git instead of Repo, or mix Repo and Git commands to form complex commands. Using Repo for basic across-network operations will make your work much simpler, however.
Git
is an open-source version-control system designed to handle very large projects that are distributed over multiple repositories. In the context of Android, we use Git for local operations such as local branching, commits, diffs, and edits. One of the challenges in setting up the Android project was figuring out how to best support the outside community--from the hobbiest community to large OEMs building mass-market consumer devices. We wanted components to be replaceable, and we wanted interesting components to be able to grow a life of their own outside of Android. We first chose a distributed revision control system, then further narrowed it down to Git.
Repo
is a repository management tool that we built on top of Git. Repo unifies the many Git repositories when necessary, does the uploads to our revision control system, and automates parts of the Android development workflow. Repo is not meant to replace Git, only to make it easier to work with Git in the context of Android. The repo command is an executable Python script that you can put anywhere in your path. In working with the Android source files, you will use Repo for across-network operations. For example, with a single Repo command you can download files from multiple repositories into your local working directory.
Gerrit
is a web-based code review system for projects that use git. Gerrit encourages more centralized use of Git by allowing all authorized users to submit changes, which are automatically merged if they pass code review. In addition, Gerrit makes reviewing easier by displaying changes side by side in-browser and enabling inline comments.

Oh yea, After the lack of updates with the Samsung S Vibrant, it was natural to upgrade.
I went from the S Vibrant to the S3. I had the S3 for about 10 months then took advantage of the T-Mobile upgrade - Trade in Program and paid less than that I normally do monthly....

[GUIDE] Use Volume Key For Flashlight with Screen Off Posted By - dannyben added 061312
a novel Guide if you can get it to work, I have tried and followed the steps and was met with limited success, but it is worth a look at and if someone can figure it out, then post the solution because I have tired both methods and no joy!

[ROM][AOSP][UNOFFICIAL]CarbonRom 2.0 bèta[4.3.1][honami][Oct 31]

Why choose for CarbonRom?
CarbonRom is an AOSP based rom, which is always compiled with the latest linaro toolchain. The kernel also is compiled with -O3 optimizations for better performance. It also gives you a great option of customization. Reasons to go for CarbonRom are:
- Compiled with Linaro, this will make your phone ultrafast and ultrasmooth
- AOSP based, s no bloatware or other stuff
- Great Customization options
- Nice look
- HALO
- ...
Current Version
CarbonRom 2.0 is still in early stages, it's Android 4.3, but not all features are implemented!
I won't manually search for all new features, just wait for an official 2.0 changelog when it is completed.
- Android 4.3
- HALO
- DSP Manager
- New battery icons
- stability and speed enhancements
- a million other little things as well - we basically don't even sleep anymore.
What is CarbonRom?
CarbonRom is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project. We are dedicated to fast, stable, and feature-filled roms, honesty and communication with our users, and openness with our code. We like frequent builds, with the very latest and greatest hardware support and fixes. We strive to not only provide you with the best rom we can build, but also to give back to the Android community and our fellow developers. For us, this is about creating something we can be proud of and hope you will enjoy.
Please feel free to look at, build, and use our code on CarbonDev GitHub.
We would like to thank CyanogenMod for their device trees, framework/settings mods and their code that was incorporated into this project. We also extend our gratitude to the devs whose code that we have incorporated. Proper authorship has been maintained and can be viewed on our repository.
Special thanks also go to Slim Rom for some of their features, PA, AOKP, @FXP, and anyone else we may have borrowed commits from that hasn't been mentioned here. If you feel you have been unfairly left out, please - let us know.
While we make every effort to test these builds as much as possible, we are not responsible for anything that may happen to your device, family, pets, or perception of reality. We ask that you do your part to know your device and know how to recover from problems before you flash! If you have questions, ask your fellow users or ask us in #teamcarbon on freenode IRC.

Download Carbon
All Carbon downloads and further information such as features, changelog, and FAQ can be found here in the second post of this thread and in the download tab.
I'll continue building nightlies as much as possible.
Support
1) Search. Search, search, search. Yes, you. I don't care how unique or important your question is, it's very likely someone has adressed it already. Especially if you're even close to new at this.
2) Read our FAQ, which can be found on our goo.im page linked above. It's new, but expanding fast. Just like us!
3) Ask a question here. Someone will no doubt try to help you. Warning: this help may come in the form of telling you it's a dumb question that has been asked before. See step 1 - such are the perils of asking questions when you haven't done the research yourself. Android is about helping yourself.
Who is the Carbon maintainer for your device?
For you guys, Xperia developer is me only, Krabappel2548. I'm the only one working for Xperia devices, maybe I'll add more devices to my support list soon. Any donations are highly appreciated, I'll always use them for my development, to buy new devices

Thanks to your help we now have the machines we need for nightlies. We couldn't have done it without you! Remember, every penny you send to us goes right back into the rom. It's used for hardware, server costs, etc - all the things that help us make Carbon better with every release. Your support means the world to us! If you've enjoyed Carbon, please consider a donation toward this goal. Thank you, and we hope you continue to enjoy Carbon!

GPU OC
OVERCLOCKING GPU WILL REDUCE BATTERY LIFE!
you can overclock/underclock GPU manually via scripts/commands...
[ how to do this manually/script ]
To check current max clock of GPU clock use:
Code:
cat /sys/devices/fdb00000.qcom,kgsl-3d0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/max_gpuclk
To set GPU to particular frequency (overclock or underclock) use:
Code:
echo 533333000 > /sys/devices/fdb00000.qcom,kgsl-3d0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/max_gpuclk
available scaling frequencies are:
Code:
[LIST]
[*]600000000 - 600 MHz
[*]533333000 - 533 MHz
[*]450000000 - 450 MHz (DEFAULT)
[*]320000000 - 320 MHz
[*]200000000 - 200 MHz
[/LIST]
Voltage Control
All credits for this interface go to Faux123!
WARNING!
DO NOT USE TOO HIGH OR TOO LOW VOLTAGES, SLOWLY increase the voltage one notch at a time for a particular frequency and do stability/testing for few hours. once you have verified that you CPU chip can handle that voltage ONLY then "Set at boot"/Use init.d script
You can either use an APP (like IncrediControl) [others mentioned in OP] or use an init.d script to do the work...
to see current voltage table use:
Code:
[B]cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/vdd_table/vdd_levels[/B]
to set voltage for a particular frequency:
Code:
[B]echo 1512000 1150000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/vdd_table/vdd_levels[/B]
will set 1512Mhz freq voltage at 1150mV
to reduce voltages for ALL frequencies:
Code:
[B]echo -25000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/vdd_table/vdd_levels[/B]
to increase voltages for ALL frequencies:
Code:
[B]echo +25000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/vdd_table/vdd_levels[/B]
Sound Control
Kernel level Sound Control
This feature has been added by faux123 himself!
The sources for this feature are covered under GPL and are released along with my kernel sources at my GITHUB repo.
[ WARNING ]
high volume can damage hearing!
Krabappel2548, DooMLoRD or faux123 are not to be held responsible if this damages ur headphones/speakers/etc
USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!
There are two ways to use this interface.
manual control through sysfs interface
paid app (FauxSound Audio/Sound Control)
How to use the app FauxSound Audio/Sound Control is pretty self explanatory so I will write on how to control using the sysfs interface...
BEFORE DOING ANY ADJUSTMENTS EXIT THE APPS LIKE MUSIC PLAYER/etc!!
The interface to control the sound output is located at:
Code:
[B]/sys/kernel/sound_control_3[/B]
it has 4 control interfaces:
Camera MIC
Code:
/sys/kernel/sound_control_3/gpl_cam_mic_gain
Headphone
Code:
/sys/kernel/sound_control_3/gpl_headphone_gain
MIC
Code:
/sys/kernel/sound_control_3/gpl_mic_gain
Internal Speaker
Code:
/sys/kernel/sound_control_3/gpl_speaker_gain
each supports gain levels from 20 (-20) to 50 (+10), base is 40 (0)
(the number in the brackets correspond to the numbers displayed in the app)
say if u want to boost headphone output (both left and right channels) then use the following command:
Code:
echo "44 44" > /sys/kernel/sound_control_3/gpl_headphone_gain
u can also individually increase/decrease the gain for each right and left channel
similarly other interfaces can be controlled
TIP:
do not jump to maximum values as sometimes the headphones/speakers might start distorting the audio... slowly increase and do testing for the levels which suit you!
not all accessories will work well with boosted audio output
All of this wouldn't be possible without @Kali- and @Bin4ry helping with stuff and setting up device tree etc
Also big thx to @DooMLoRD for some of his kernel commits to tweak the CM kernel

[UNOFFICIAL]Mokee Open Source MK71.2 for i9500(ja3gxx)

What is the difference?
RELEASE: Tested after integrating new features, more stable than NIGHTLY. (Odexed builds)
NIGHTLY: Built daily with newest code and experimental features, might contain undiscovered bugs. (Deodexded builds)
HISTORY: Final odexded builds once a newer Android version is out and being built.
EXPERIMENTAL: Released when a new device is added or when a new feature is added for public beta testing and feedback. (Deodexded builds)
UNOFFICIAL: Maintained separately by individual developers, usually involves modification of shared code which cannot be merged (affects other devices), therefore maintained by the developer himself.
THIS IS A UNOFFICIAL VISION!
ABOUT
MoKee Open Source is based on the Google AOSP. We update our source code frequently to keep up with the latest development, and not forgetting to merge in special features of our own at the same time.
A small group of people from around the world who are interested in Android launched this project on the 12th of December 2012, and is committed to make this ROM better and better. Like most contributors of open source projects (Omni, CyanogenMod, Slim AOSPA etc), we are doing all these in our free time as our passion…
Since this project is open source, anyone interested can participate in the development (maintain new devices, contribute code etc). Newcomers are always welcomed!
Read here for developer application: http://www.mfunz.com/en/developer-application, you can host your unofficial MoKee builds on our server!
