then choose the kernel img and flash
great job bro
i will try it
Lol I've been working on a kernel myself. I was too much afraid to over clock over 1.33. I didn't know it was overclockable till 1.5.
Good Job.
Add LZ4 compression to kernel, boots are faster since the compression level is very low. Therefore deflation happens quickly.
If you want to, you can merge my commit from my rep.

So was I, in fact the only difference in op kernel and my kernel is sha , gpu freq and ps3 controller, rest is the same.. Lol

I have C1905,if i flash 4.2 from c2005 can i use this kernel?Maybe the answer is yes couse the ram disk in this kernel is for 4.2 ,thats right?
My second Q is can i change the ram disk on this kernel with rd of c1905 and then use it on stock 4.1?
Sory for my stupid questins

Wanna say thanks? Buy me a root beer, and/or hit thanks!
Addendum: This is relatively untested on the i9000 as the main testing was done in Captivate.
0.0.3 (Maintenance Upgrade)
TONS AND TONS of ext4 fixes (more info here: http://existz.darkirc.info/git/?p=kernel/talonmtd.git;a=shortlog)
Minor upstream fixes including call volume tweak
0.0.2
Improved USB signal quality
OndemandX governor (offers sleep power consumption improvements over ondemand, not ready for the big time yet. Seems to cause 3D choppiness.)
Fixed enable_conservative script (released separately, coming soon)
Upstream DVFS fixes
Many more ARM fixes (for more information visit http://existz.darkirc.info/git/?p=kernel/talonmtd.git;a=shortlog and take a look at the ARM fixes)
Low power mode support (buggy)
Upstream touchkey tweak to prevent accidental button pushing
BUMPED OVERCLOCK VOLTAGES--People were reporting serious instability, so I bumped the voltages. This should fix the majority of issues.
init.d cleaning script from zacharias.maladroit
Major tweaks from Infuse to help with CPU scaling above 1000 MHz
Im usually all about constructive comments... but..
I love you.
That is all.
hi, i'm new to miui rom, after flash this kernel...if not suitable, how to flash back to ori kernel?

You mean the original kernel that comes with MIUI? You can flash the CWM zip for the kernel itself. If the CWM zip is not available, you only have the full CWM ROM zip, you could:
1. Remove all instances of system files in the zip and only keep the kernel (in the updates dir) and the META-INF
2. Edit the updater-script in the META-INF and only leave the kernel copying procedure
3. Run the CWM zip in recovery mode.
This is what I usually do in Samsung based ROMs. It might be a little different for MIUI/CM7, or you could flash any other CM7/MIUI kernels using their CWM flasheable zips.
Let me know if you're unsure of what you need to do and I'll offer you support in the IRC instead.
totally clueless....please guide me step by step.

Try using Heimdall to flash the boot.img of another custom kernel.
heimdall flash --kernel /path/to/boot.img
thanks for the reply, it did flash but i didnt get cwm recovery to load. it just shows the triangle.

Not sure what triangle you're mentioning there. Can you post up a screenshot?
If you've successfully flashed the boot.img using Heimdall in download mode, can you boot the phone?
i can boot the phone, thats not a problem... I cant get access to recovery.
when i try to boot to recovery i get a triangle and a file next to it.
dont worry about it, ill just full flash it again.
so far not very good - instant freeze after boot and than it restarts itself.
Also uses old recovery - absolutely not a big deal, just something that catches eyes and fingers.

Didnt do it manually, assumed script would do it (glitch and platypus do). Will try out again later when I get back home. If it didnt clean scripts, there could be a lot left from platypus I guess.

wow thanks !!!
I was just wishing for days for this to happen !!!
please, can you implement ZRam and Memory Freak app for CM7 ?
heheh Talon Dev when on Samsung Roms and Talon MTD when on CM7 / MIUI
( yes , i am constantly rotating between those, i currently love MilkyMod and CM7. Latest Miui is also very nice )
this rom is awesome , i get about 190 - 196 free ram everytime i use the app killer(the inbuilt one in miui) , im on galnet chameleon rc2 , its super smooth , only bug i found till now is that the overclock is very very unstable , it freezes even at 1.2 ghz , previously i could go upto 1.4 stable and 1.5 for benchmarks
It's really great to see the TalonDev team on CM7.
I'm loving your kernel on my stock rom
And now on CM7... OHH MY GOD HOW CAN I CHOOSE BETWEEN ZACK AND TALON KERNEL
hi guys, maybe you guys already know that i've compiled a kernel for CM9 for my daily use. now i'm thinking to build CM10 version too as they aren't too different

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.

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?

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.

Antutu score??
Xperia S1
Benchmarks are a way of wasting time. AnTuTu, at least. And Quadrant.
You are free to test and compare, scores vary by device, so a score of mine means nothing to you,
This is a kernel you can flash on any rom for amami, which uses the caf-based libraries and stock rom.
The most work on this was not done by me, this is more a package of work done by other people.
See the next post for installation instructions.

How to configure cpuquiet
You can configure cpuquiet to the pefect use with your phone. You need root permissions and any shell, i. e. Terminal Emulator.
First run 'su' to get root permissions.
Change the minimum and maximum amount of online cpu cores:
Code:
file for max. amount of online cpus: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/cpuquiet_driver/max_cpus
file for min. amount of online cpus: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/cpuquiet_driver/min_cpus
Example:
echo 3 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/cpuquiet_driver/max_cpus
echo 2 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/cpuquiet_driver/min_cpus
The cpuquiet driver supports different governors, a bit like cpufreq governors. The governors which are currently present are: "runnable", "rq_stats", "load_stats", "balanced"
Find the best one for you by yourself
Code:
sysfs file: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/current_governor
Example: echo balanced > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/current_governor
Change the max screen-off cpu frequency and online cpus:
Code:
sysfs file for max. screen-off-freq: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/cpuquiet_driver/screen_off_cap
syfs file for max. screen-off online cpus: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/cpuquiet_driver/screen_off_max_cpus
Example:
echo 960000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/cpuquiet_driver/screen_off_cap
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/cpuquiet_driver/screen_off_max_cpus
Disable cpuquiet(and enable mpdecision):
Code:
sysfs file: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/cpuquiet_driver/enabled
Example:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuquiet/cpuquiet_driver/enabled
start mpdecision #enable mpdecision
These settings only stick until you reboot. So better setup an init.d script, which applies your settings every boot.
If you aren't sure, what init.d scripts are, ask google.

AOSP-based roms
The kernel for asop-based roms gets flashed using a special .zip, which only flashes zImage and dt. That means, there are no ramdisk-problems, which you didn't got before. The scripts inside the script are also modifying the ramdisk to don't have mpdecision enabled by default.
Installation
1. Flash the zip file through a recovery

Whaa!! for CM based ROMs and Sony based ROMs!! that would be interesting,
also I like the idea of not having a ramdisk inside the zip, I'll probably use it for next releases of Pimped kernel,
And did you strip the kernel modules before putting them inside the zip??
the wlan.ko module is 43.5MB!! the kernel's zip is around 35MB!!!! that is alot.
BTW, great work, thanks for contributing again and again for our beloved device,
hope you the best:angel:

I am sorry but it may not work on sony roms, you can try if you want. I didn't test it.
I did not even know that kernel modules can be stripped

Well yeah that is the problem, I'm kinda sure that you can't use the same kernel for Sony and AOSP based ROMs in the same time!!
so you should mention in OP or in title that this kernel is for AOSP based ROMs so that users don't get confused...
Also if you haven't searched and found out about the stripping, you can do it by executing this:
<dir-to-toolchain>/bin/arm-eabi-strip --strip-unneeded <dir-to-modules-folder>/*
of course the arm-eabi-strip part depends on what toolchain you're using.
Hopefully that would help.
Works on unofficial slimkat

It also works great with this : http://download.mokeedev.com/?device=amami

Thank You !!!!
:good:
Version 0.1.2:
- update f2fs to current upstream
- replace Cyanogenmod branding with mine
- strip kernel modules, you don't need to download 30mb+ anymore
If you want to use f2fs, I really suggest you to install this, the fixed bugs are really important. Else it is almost unneccessary
@CoolDevelopment
Very nice job! Finally we get a dedicated custom kernel for Amami
Oh and I saw the commits on CM gerrit. Nice job man :good:
I'll try flashing this on PAC. If what you say is true, that it doesn't modify the ramdisk, then it should boot. Otherwise I'll get stuck in a bootloop because PAC has custom jar files.
Finally some exciting development on Amami, testing now
EDIT: just a tip, you should ask a mod to move this thread to original development, because it really belongs there
EDIT2: it works perfectly
Yes it doesnt work on pa aslo :/

@cooldevekopment Is it possible to include TWRP instead of CWM in your kernel. I know there is a patch for f2fs that has TWRP buid-in, but anyway.

this kernel has no ramdisk, meaning it doesn't contain nether CWM nor TWRP,
whatever recovery you'll flash the kernel through, it won't be replaced with any other recovery

Nope, because it is based on AOSP kernel source, which won't work on Sony based ROMs,
this kernel will only work on AOSP-based (CM-based) ROM..

@mw1man no problems here with dualsim. i converted my single sim to dual today and flashed phoenix kernel over stock.
Also the kernel runs pretty smooth so far. I changed the cpu governor to impulse and lowered the minimum cpu freq of the big cluster to 400 MHz. Will report back!
