HOW TO USE THIS KERNEL ON SLIMBEAN?
there are someways to use this this kernel on slimbean. i'll mention the easiest one step-by-step
Code:
1. flash this kernel
2. using RootExplorer or ESFileManager or whatever you choose, go to /lib/modules
3. copy the all the files in there to /system/lib/modules
4. reboot
BUG REPORTING RULE
First thing you need to have before posting to this thread is respect. If you don't have it for others you will regret leaving a post as people in this thread don't like disrespect. The items below are just detailed description of what "respect" means in this context. If you have common sense you probably won't need to read all the following items but please do read them anyway.
Do not ask questions to me directly. This is a common thread, not my personal inbox. Ask your questions in the thread and do not target them to anyone.
Do not expect answers to all your questions. There are some questions which nobody knows the answer of.
Do not forget that this is a development thread. There is another thread in general section for those who wants to discuss battery life and chats. If your post does not include a feature request, bug report or suggestion it should be posted to the other thread.
Make sure you state your ROM, settings and any other relevant information while telling about your problem/a bug. "I have lag", "I had crash" or any similar posts will be ignored if you don't give any more details.
No ETA for new version. Even if I sometimes talk about release dates those may change and they change for some good reason or because of my real-life obligations.
Make use of "Search this Thread -> Advanced Search". If you humiliate people and waste their time by asking a question which is answered in the last 3 pages I guarantee that you will be treated as you deserve.
Never ever discuss anything deep-sleep related in this thread. I do not make modifications to prevent sleep and 99% of deep sleep problems are application/ROM related. discuss it in general section. I do not want any positive ("this kernel sleeps like a baby") or negative ("There is a big problem with deep sleep. Please fix it") messages in my development thread.

Report bro :
1. Installing kernel without copy dhd.ko into system/lib/modules..... wifi doesnt work
2. Installing kernel with copy dhd.ko into system/lib/modules..... wifi still doesnt work
I'm using slimbean 4.1.2
another report, but this time i'm using dhd.ko from kernel it self. after installing this kernel and other kernel, i'm curious that there's lib folder in root. /lib/modules.... its supossed to be in /system/lib/modules...
i'm just copy dhd.ko from /lib/modules into /system/lib/modules and fix permission into rw-r---r-- and voila... wifi is working now in slimbean....
wifi doesnt work on slimbean
how did you manage to get this amount of ram?..what was it previously reserved for?would that effect previously dedicated thing?
i try to add dhd.ko in kernel installer and it works in slimbean, here you go

THIS KERNEL IS NOW OBSOLETE, DON'T USE IT.
Mine newest and stable kernel releases are now integrated into my version of CyanogenMod 7.2, please use only a kernel provided with that ROM, not this one.
Im leaving it for historical reason or for some geeks
The testing release of kernel for p350 based on kernel by drapalyuk - taken from kernel and rom + sources
I do not take any resposibility for bricked devices!
This kernel aims to optimize the performance, responsivity and battery life so please share your opinion about these factors and your ideas.
If you are experiencing any problems with WiFi or 3G try much less tweaked but more stable LITE version.
Instalation:
Download zip to your phone
Get the Custom Recovery for p350
Reboot into recovery
Backup your boot partition (if you like risk you can ommit this step )
Choose Flash zip menu
Turn off verification (as I dont signed my kernel yet)
Flash downloaded zip
Reboot and enjoy
Changelog(2.6.32.48 version):
[0.4]
Fixed black screen after wakeup issue
Added vr and sio I/O schedulers (SIO is default)
Added smartassv2 governor
VM_MAX_READAHEAD changed to 512
[0.3]
Kernel version updated to 2.6.32.48
BFS CPU Scheduler
Applied few tweaks from https://github.com/arco/buzz-kernel-2.6.32/
Some other small tweaks (List of applied patches is on github)
Compiled with newest Linaro toolchain with -Ofast flag and tuned to our architecture
LITE version:
For all guys having problems with internet connection on my kernel there is a LITE version.
It contains less tweaks thant normal version but should not have problems with internet. This version is much less tweaked so it should be more stable.
What is in lite version:
Kernel version 2.6.32.9 (not updated)
Smartass v2 governor
SIO and VR IO schedulers (SIO as default)
VM_MAX_READAHEAD changed to 512
Compiled with newest Linaro toolchain with -Ofast flag and tuned to our architecture
If you dont have any problems with 0.4 version I reccomend NOT to install Lite version

Debuging Info
or how to help make it better
If you have any problems with my kernel and you want to help in some way - here it is some info how you can.
Just after apearing of the problem please get logs from your device.
How to do it:
Info on CM wiki how to get Logcat
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Logcat
Info about getting kmesg:
Open Terminal Emulator (or shell with ADB if you know how)
Write the following commands:
Code:
su
cat /proc/kmsg > /sdcard/kmsg.log
There should be new file kmsg.txt on your sdcard. Copy it to your PC.
info about last kmsg after sudden reboot/crash
Same as for normal kmesg but the command now should be:
Code:
su
cat /proc/last_kmsg > /sdcard/last_kmsg.txt
Created file will be named last_kmsg.txt
Attach all logs to your post (prefered way is to use http://pastebin.com/
Of course if you have any programming skills you can tinker with my sources as you wish and send patches to me

I also noticed the 'black screen issue' sometimes and working on it. Drapalyuk fixed it in CM but its not in his sources :/
What versions of ROM (CM, 2.2 etc) do you use?
only angry birds... can't tell any difference but still no fc

I'm using drape's 20.10 rom... and before i would reflash to try and get that black screen took care of but in a couple days it would come back.. and it isnt so bad.. it doesn't really effect anything.. but after flashing your kernel i am getting them less now so thats a plus..

I will try do as much as I can - thx for some kind of list of 'thigs I should look at'. Few comments I have:
About governors - there will be smartass v2 for sure in next version - I just hadnt time to integrate it in this release (I tested it earlier at it really was smartass )
I/O Schedulers - deadline is quite enough for sd cards, but I will look into this SIO as it is based on deadline - thx for hint. I think rest of them is not needed.
File Systems - do we really need support for them? More supported format means bigger kernel.
"optimized kernel for size" - I prefer optimize for speed and it is done
Thanks again for this list - looks very interesting
Havent find the Governer in the cyanogen Mod ??
do I have to use external apps to select that governer??

The governor does not come with the cyanogen mod ofLG p350. No you can't use external apps to install that governor,assuming it is smartass

I know that Dude
But we need external apps to select which Governer and I/O scheduler to be used even if it is in the boot.img. Not installing but selecting
no-frill app is used in my phone (i9003) it contains all the above items in the list i have specified earlier
Its from i9003 by doomload it contains all the things
https://github.com/DooMLoRD/SGS-SL-i9003
Hm... I can select governor from CM menu (performance -> CPU settings - not sure about english names ; ) but be aware of a fact that there is no smartass here (yet ), just standard ones (ondemand,usersapce,powersave,performance)
Sadly your kernel from i9003 is .35 one an here we have .32 so patches do not apply so easy...
But when I will have more time (Im in the middle of Bsc thesis ) I will try to port some .35 kernel for p350
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 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.

Great, I don’t have really good experience with viperZ rom. For me was a bit slow and laggy I planning to improve few options tonight for more performance but first I will test them.
I don't know if Virtuous Kernel maybe it's only for Sense based roms and not AOSP like cyanogen / aokp..
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
Beastmode mod kernel
Here is the github for beastmode mod kernel :
https://github.com/thachtunganh/beastmode-1.5/
Try compiling it for vision.
Updates and so...
Updated version with lagfree governor, BFQ scheduler and patch for Patch for release swapcache more aggressively is available.
For next version i plan to add ck's Brain **** Scheduler (BFS), interactiveX governor and some ck's memory and swap management patches.
All feedbacks and suggestions are welcome!

Thanks. Yes in quick view I saw a lot interesting things, later will dig more deep in the thread.
I just flashed this kernel on my DZ with aokp,
booted and restarted like the description,
testing it right now
ok data / phone works,
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.
I'm restoring
I think it's because this kernel is for sense based roms.
Maybe you sould try to compile this from cyanogen : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1492461

Sad news but will be easy to add all modifications to jerl92's repo. Expect soon version and for aokp Can I ask you for your /proc/config.gz file?? I have need to see compilation options for this kernel maybe and the are different too.

I don't think so. This is kernel for ICS. If you want test with backup and feedback, but I expect issues with GB roms
Hey Everyone,
I'm by no means a pro at kernel building but I've put lots of effort into these kernels so I thought I'd share them with you. The Uber kernel will always be updated to the latest Kernel version and will be overclocked to 1890 MHz or 1998 GHz (2 GHz) you decide which option you are willing to do. Unlike some of the other T-mobile Galaxy S II Hercules developers out there, I actually have a Galaxy S II and plan on having it until Summer 2014. This means that EVERY KERNEL I POST HAS BEEN TESTED AND IS WORKING although it might not be perfect (few things in life ever are).
Even though I don't post anything unless it works I still don't want to be liable for user errors. In other words, if you flash one of these Kernels your warranty is void and I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE for any data loss or bricked devices etc. A Clean install is ALWAYS recommended. That does not necessarily mean you can't install these kernels on you current build it just means that you might have problems if you do. Recently apps have been getting corrupted for whatever reason whether on Stock or AOSP and in most cases they cause RRs and SODs. If you find yourself in one of those situations a clean install is the easiest fix. If you want to try and save you apps then connect to you phone while in recovery using adb. Then type adb shell. Now once you are in that shell you can run this command to fix your apps "e2fsck -yfDC0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25" it could take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour depending on the state of your apps.
[AOSP 4.4.x UBER KERNEL LINK]
UBER 4.1 - 1.89 GHz RELEASE for AOSP 4.4 KitKat
UBER 4.1 - 2 GHz RELEASE for AOSP 4.4 KitKat
All old Kernels can be found on Dev Host via this link (be careful you read file names and descriptions carefully if you choose to take a peek around) http://d-h.st/users/Cl3Kener/
Installation Instructions
**** IMPORTANT!!! USE TWRP 2.6.1.0+ for 4.4 kernels!!! Failure to do so may result in bootloops due to changes made to TWRP to accommodate SELinux in 4.4 ROMs (Links include flashable TWRP installation zips credits to meekrawb. Just flash them in your current recovery! ) ****
1. For best results a install these kernel after a fresh ROM install (although it still should work if you don't do that)
2. Reboot into recovery (MAKE SURE YOU USE THE RIGHT ONE!!! (See red print above))
3. Flash Kernel Zip
4. Reboot and let Settle for ~10 minutes
5. Install Trickster MOD from the App Store for access to all of the options.
6. Change the settings to something other than INTERACTIVE (Especially if you run it with BFQ it will give you the worst screen lag ever). Then enable "Set at Boot" and push the check mark button at the top right hand portion of the screen or else you will lose your configurations.
7. Enjoy!!!
Error Reporting
I am always open to hearing about your errors although just telling me something went wrong without giving me details does me absolutely no good. So here are my expectations if you do want to complain about something not working:
1. Please list the ROM you are using,
2. The IO scheduler you were using
3. The CPU governor you were using
4. The CPU frequency range (192/1080 etc)
5. What you have done to attempt to fix it.
6. If you were able to simulate it again using the same settings.
7. Anything else you think is applicable to the issue
I would also hope that you would consider trying some of the following things to fix your issue before you ever report it because most of these things will fix the problem without me even having to change a thing.
1) Fix file permissions using a program that does a thorough job. I recommend using the fix file permissions in ROM manager because it is the best I’ve seen. For the record, I don’t actually use ROM manager for anything other than fixing permissions. Please consider trying this first because it tends to fix most of the FC/RR/SOD errors you might have.
2) Make a backup and install a clean version of the ROM you are running and see if you are still experiencing those same errors. You may have corrupted files if you’ve been dirty flashing.
3) If that doesn’t solve it, redownload and reflash, maybe something got corrupted but it still managed to flash. This happens sometimes and I can cause you grief.
4) For advanced users pull a logcat. I know not everyone knows how to do this but you can learn if you check out this OP or other ones like it

3 New Performance Boosters
Hey Everyone,
For those of you who haven't heard I've been using "Koding" as my new kernel build server. Space is very limited with my free account but if you'd like you can click here and signup to help me get more free space. You'll also find that you can learn how to code just about anything (java, html5, php, to name a few). Many developers and adding tutorials and sharing their projects so if you are interested in that stuff make sure to sign up!
I've made two nightlies this morning which need testing. For those of you who were around for my 4.3 you might recall that somewhere along the line there was suddenly a curious SD Card Mounting/Unmounting that would happen after unlocking the phone. I had made so many commits in such a short time frame that I was unsure which one caused the error. I've gone back and added my top three performance improving commits from the questionable series to see if any of these three commits caused the error (I certainly hope they did not, I really hope it was caused by the LZ4 compression and not the performance boosters). Let me know if you see any problems as you use these nightly kernels!!! Remember these are for 4.4 ONLY!!!
Here are the links!
UBER 1.89 GHz

Cheers!

just to let you know i have not been getting the sd card error on the 4.4 uber
Signed up on Koding maybe you can teach me a thing of two (^o^)

BETA2 For 12/16 CM Nightlies and Beyond
Hey Everyone!
Well Team Chopsticks finally got video working although from what I can tell all of the work was actually all done by our very own @bryan2894 who went and found the patches that fixed the video!!! Great work @bryan2894!!! Part of this video fix included the kernel so here is an updated kernel with the patch needed. This kernel will only have fixed video on CM 12/16 nightlies and beyond. I bet it might work with earlier but you might as well update if you are a CM user so what's the point?
Anyhow, enjoy the updates!
Cheers!
Cl3Kener
PS since I know someone will ask, This actually does work great with the 12-14 HellKat build since it also has working video because we grabbed the patches from CM before they were merged.

Question: for official CM 11 update, i am currently using recovery CWM 6.0.3.7, because CM officialssaid so or phone will run into problems. but this kernel requires TWRP, i am wondering can i update CM 11 nighlies with the given TWRP recovery?
Please advise. Thanks.

That stuff is nonsense. The latest TWRP in fact is much better for this phone and flashing this or any other ROM here IMHO. I tested both CWM and TWRP on more than one occasion and results were identical. For me TWRP is also much easier to get into when you have an issue with a new ROM booting and you need to get into recovery via the power & volume up buttons.

I've flashed CM11 (my builds) about 10 times in the last month and have been using TWRP 2.6.1.0 since Sept. without issue.
Just don't try to flash TWRP from within GooManager, either flash from recovery or use Odin (best).
Since the video recording is working now I moved to CM11 using the @Almite (Rom) and @Cl3Kener (Uber 2GHz kernel) and I can tel you this is solid Rock combination in performance and stability even those are still in Nightlies/Beta so thank you all for this amazing team work...
Is it possible to add the BLN notification (I know some don't like it but usually this the feature can be disabled)
Thanks

Current Stable Version: r2x
Stable Release Date: 2014-07-27
Current Beta Version: a4x
Beta Release Date: 2014-07-30
Created 2013-12-21
Last Updated 2014-08-01
And now, a FAQ. @franciscofranco's FAQ, updated to fit our device.
F.A.Q. - Read this before complaining!
1. My phone exploded, HALP!
A: I don't answer to problems without a log. The log file is in /proc/last_kmsg. Paste it on pastie.org and link it on your post or, preferably, post all of that under the "Bugs" section of DevDB and either post a memo of that in the thread or PM me. Logcats are useless for Kernel purposes, don't bother posting them.
2. OMG BETTARY SUCKZ, IT DEAD IN 45 MINUTAS, HALP!
A: As you can imagine I don't build kernels to decrease battery life. All the battery life problems come from your apps, either Facebook, or Maps, or some Location Service being enabled etc etc. Check your damn wakelocks and fix them, the kernel is not responsible for them.
3. How do I flash this?
A: It's zipped so it's flashable via recovery, though you may also extract the kernel and fastboot flash it. Some alphas come in the form of .elf, though it is recommended that you flash them via fastboot regardless of that.
4. OP is arrogant, I'm gonna call the Internet Police?
A: Deal with it. Especially if asking a question already answered on the first page.
5. Touch Control doesn't work in rXXX release, you suckas, fix plixe!
A: I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for a fix, I can tell you I don't have the solution. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you leave now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I ignore you.
6. What's up with the kernel's name?
A: Well I have '755' in my name. So there's that... KerKat is something like "Kernel" plus "KitKat". This was my best idea at midnight.
7. I'm on stock/CM10/CM9/GB and this kernel doesn't work.
A: This kernel is ONLY for Cyanogenmod 11 and any ROMs that came of it (like AOKP, for example). Don't flash on anything else unless you are SURE the ROM is based off of OpenSEMC's CM11.
8. My Locked-bootloader phone won't boot with this/I can't flash it.
A: This is a custom kernel. It requires an unlocked bootloader.
9. What app do you recommend for dealing with CPU settings?
A: Use TricksterMod. For 2D GPU OC and setting the 2nd CPU core's governor, I recommend Kernel Tuner. Both are feature-packed and free, and if you don't mind an extra icon in your drawer, I say get both.
10. What is the difference between releases marked as a# and r#?
A: The r# releases are considered the most stable, but do not pack all the features newest features because my work is rather slow; I'll add an alpha, an a# release, every time a minor change is introduced. But even if they look and feel stable, do not consider them as such, despite some of them being flashable through recovery. Most of them are dirty builds!!! Meant for advanced users only!
11. I want to support you and your work!
A: Putting a subtle sign in your signature that you're using my kernel (or like it or have/had used it). Please, no big banners or anything, just the name of the kernel. That would be appreciated the most.
12. EYE NEEDZ A DISCUSSON THRED; ARHGAHGHAGHHAHGH!
A: This thread serves as both the development and discussion thread for this kernel. Non-dev discussion is allowed, but please do stay on topic.
And now, thanks!

Don't know what's wrong but this Kernel made my phone lagging as hell and unusable..
My rom is untouched cm11.
---------- Post added at 04:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:50 PM ----------
Okay looks like the "Hyper" governor caused all my problems.
But also with other governor it laggs and cpu always stays at 384 mhz and gpu always on 177 mhz. This happens even with "performace" governor.
Even recovery laggs as never before. This kernel has many, many problems for me.
Also flashing just the open semc zip takes verry long, it's flashing for five minutes now!
FAQ, points 1, 4 and 5.
You should show some respect, I didn't say anything against you I just reported my problems.
FAQ number 4.
There's a reason DevDB exists. You wanted to report a problem? Use what is to be used.
I give respect where it's due. And so should you.
I'm here with my phone and can't use DevDB.

RIN Kernel for D851
Close to stock with some sugar added ... delicous!
Hey guys and girls,
you may have seen my unified stock kernel thread already (or may not, but doesn't matter). This kernel is my attempt to build up on the fixed source and add some additional features for us mod lovers to thinker with and to personalize your device to your usage. For now, I'll keep it close to my stock source and just pull some additional features and fixes in, but not to much. That may change in the future (maybe even soon), but for now, I'll stick to that paradigm.
First of, DISCLAIMER, I'm not responsible for bricked devices, dead unicorns, rainbows with missing colors, world war, nose bleed, void warranty (you know that already, don't you? your warranty is void now and it's your fault ) or any other harm happening to your device, you or people around you!

Any questions? (FAQ)
How can I toggle the android logger?
File Explorer Method:
Go with a root explorer to /sys/kernel/logger_mode and open the logger_mode file.
Remove everything inside that file and put the number 1 to enable and 0 to disable the logger into it and save the file.
Terminal Method:
Enable the logger
Code:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/logger_mode/logger_mode
Disable the logger
Code:
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/logger_mode/logger_mode
My internal sd is not working, what to do?
Open adb shell or a terminal emulator and type
Code:
su
restorecon -v -R /data/media

Sry for the glitch!

Great, thanks for checking that quickly, seems the current recovery doesn't like, when it's checked for the device model :/

Undervolted 72 globally. Switched to smartass v2 just because I haven't seen it in forever. No lock ups. No reboots. Running smooth. Look forward for what's to come

What settings are recommended?
One thing I notice using smartass v2 is the keyboard lag is gone. SwiftKey works well for short periods then starts lagging really bad for whatever reason. Not happening at all since I flashed this kernel. That alone makes this kernel badass ?

Whatever fits you best, personally I'm using adaptive, vr, slight undervolt of 60mV, read ahead of 512 for internal and 2048 for external.

Just something I noticed but when I restart my phone the temps show at some in the 80c range. If I Give it a Few minutes then it settles down. And runs normal during that time it's very warm. does anyone else experience this?

Happened on two ATT and two TMO G3's I've tried so far on every reboot all running stock. It cools pretty quickly tho.

Hmm I wonder what the thermal threshold is. I wanna know what temps are considered to hot
