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.

here i'll upload the dhd.ko. extract the zip file and put the dhd.ko to /system/etc/wifi, i hope this helps
i'm thinking of another way, try to issue this command from terminal emulator

Alright... I will try when I'm free. Meanwhile, can someone using Slimbean try it out first?
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda premium

Downloading and i'll try in slimbean
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

[KERNEL] Hushi Kernel - Virtuous Kernel with more governors and so..

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.

Thanks for making this

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!

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

[KERNEL][AOSP 4.4.x][2GHz/1.89 GHz] UBER 4.1 | LINARO 4.7.4

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.

​
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
UBER 2 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

Version Information
Status: Abandoned
Current Stable Version: N/A
Current Beta Version: a1
Beta Release Date: 2013-12-16
Created 2013-12-16
Last Updated 2014-07-30

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. 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: Since it's an .elf file, it's only flashable through fastboot. The general command is "fastboot flash kernel.elf"
4. OP is arrogant, I'm gonna call the Internet Police?
A: Deal with it.
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...
7. I'm on stock/CM10/CM9/GB and this kernel doesn't work.
A: This kernel is ONLY for CyanogenMod 10.2 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 CM10.2.
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 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. 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. Most of them are dirty builds!!! Meant for advanced users only, so distributed in fastboot-flashable format 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 used it). Please, no big banners or anything, just the name of the kernel. That would be appreciated the most.
And now, thanks!

I trust you know what you're doing, Wise one.
Still, it is dangerous to go alone. Here, take this. *Hands free pie*

Hey someone755,where are the potatoes??

Well I gotta change something from release to release

many people are moving to a cm11 based rom...
will you make a kernel for that as well?

No, not just yet.
I see 4.3 more stable, while KitKat is still in its early stages.
Also, I see KitKat will be updated more frequently, but I'm lazy, so no.

I see Kitkat gotten more stable than 4.3.. Since video recording and other issues from 4.3 are solved in it.. So probably its best either if Rayman releases a BETA version of 4.3 fixing the bugs or u switch to 4.4 kernel.. :silly: Just an opinion..

I tried your potatoes 4.2.2 kernel and it was great
Waiting for your kitkat kernel since I'm running cm11

Hi,
Just to be sure : this is a kernel for CM10.2 or JB-4.3 roms right ?
You ask it's an optimized -O3 built kernel. Did you solve your problem with /cache size and -O3 optimisations ? Will you build a potatoe kernel (for JB-4.2) including these optimisations ?
Cheers

Yes, it's for CM 10.2/Android 4.3 (OpenSEMC, of course),
Potatoes already have -O3
And just saw that KK is in Beta stage. Might give that a shot, Pie isn't all that popular, as it would seem.
Just need to hang in there for another week, my last part for my custom rig is just around the corner (hopefully).

Thank you for your kernel and for smooth video recording.
I very like OmniROM with your kernel.
I have only two small problems:
- TWRP is little slower than with other kernel (backup taken about 20 minutes)
- I'm not able to select "smartass v2" governor (I thik you have typo in your script, because there are two names in one row (see screenshot)

Lol sorry, I must've derped the Makefile. It'll run nightmare, not smartassv2 if you select it...
About TWRP, I don't have a clue, I never even used CM10.2...
I'll look into fixing it tonight, if I find the time.

Frequently asked Questions (FAQ)
Or Questions and answers, since this thread is new.
Q: Can this be flashed on the Exynos Note 4?
A: No, by no means. The Exynos model is completely incompatible, sorry.
Q: And what about other Snapdragon versions?
A: I can't advise to do that, it's untested and might not work. If you know how to handle bootloops and can remove my kernel if it doesn't boot, then you can always try it and tell me how it went. More variants would be awesome.
Q: Yikes, this kernel is too close to stock! What about more features?
A: More features will be included, please check the changelog preview. You can also request features and track the progress. I will make a section on this thread to display the feature request and write if I look at them, make them or - and that might happen - reject them.
- To be updated..

Known Issues / Fixes
Bootloop if you have Viper4Android installed and flashed Andromeda over it
Fix: Uninstall Viper, install Andromeda and then reinstall.
If this issue persists in my future builds, then I'll add an automated script to remove Viper4Android upon installation of the kernel.

Still on kk? Samsung is slower than I thought lol... Thanks for letting me know, edited the thread. Probably better to try it when G receives official 5.0

Seems like a great Kernel, good luck buddy

Going to test on my n910t after work. Ktoonsez is the only booting kernel so far for TW5.0 but we have a data issue

Welcome thanks for the work: Bueno:

Hi, yes of course you can! We are actually working on deeper and more exclusive support for SimpleRom too. Stay tuned for version 2.1, it will be awesome
My kernel is much closer to the stock base, so you might get some more performance squeezed out - especially if you select Intelliactive as your governor - but at the cost of battery. I'm still not so big on features, the last couple of days my compiler decided to give me a hard time :crying:
Only 910F for now though!

this kernel is the best one for note 4 it is soo fast

I'm not part of their Team, but Pafcholini is teaching me Don't worry, this kernel is not a clone of Nadia. My newest and upcoming build is as fluent as the last one and the batterylife is holding up a ton better too. No compromises on either side, thats my motto!

Haha, I know what you mean I love the compliment, but I know as well as you do, that Nadia doesn't lag, unless the Synapse settings are set wrong. Too bad that my attempts at Synapse aren't going so great atm..

Andromeda Stable 1.0 released!
Good evening everyone,
it took me a while, but I present you the first Stable build of Andromeda!
Changelog
- FauxSound 3.6 fully integrated
- IntelliPlug 4.0
- Enhancements and battery optimizations (mainly centered around powersuspend and adaptations to the default interactive governor)
- Renamed the Kernel in the settings, the last one was a disaster
- 57% Support with KControl currently (Playstore App)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
About the Overclocking and Synapse...
I originally intended to include both in this build, but it will still need much more time and work and I didn't want to keep you away from the great upgrades I made in this version, so those two goodies will come later. I can highly recommend trying TricksterMod and KControl, both from the PlayStore.
And a very special announcement...
Perhaps the biggest change is that I recently joined "Team Simple - Simply Awesome" cool and will contribute an adapted version of the Andromeda kernel to SimpleRom, starting with the very close release of it's 2.1 Build. We planned something special - FauxSound is only the cherry on the Audiophile package inbuilt, so be very excited for whats coming up and be sure to try SimpleRom, especially the upcoming 2.1 version!
Oh, btw. I will also open a thread for the SimpleKernel once the Rom is released, to provide an optimized yet very close to stock experience! And there are also plans for an Exynos Build (the N910C), but I need some help with the Exy, so if anyone could lend me a hand, it would be highly appreciated! Now I understand why most devs settle for the Snapdragon..
