- Enjoy (mandatory)
CHANGELOGS:
REFER TO MY KERNEL SOURCE FOR DETAILS ON EVERY COMMIT INCLUDED.
ON HOW TO HANDLE CHARGE_LEVES INTERFACE (proceed with caution, if you don't know what you are doing, just don't do it... I won't support any mess ups with this option!)
- You'll find the sysfs interface for this in this path: /sys/kernel/charge_levels
- The charge_level_ac file contains the value for the wall charger rate in mA; if the file contains a 0 value, it will charge at the standard rate, anything else will be user handled; values should go not more than to the 2100 limit.
- The charge_level_usb file contains the value for the usb charge rate in mA; if the file contains a 0 value, it will charge at the standard rate, anything else will be user handled; values should go not more than to the 500 limit.
- Te charge_info file provides info about the rate in mA and voltage when the phone is charging.
ON HOW TO APPLY ZZMOOVE PROFILES: For now, use Kernel Adiutor, Synapse or any other kernel tweaker to select Zzmoove as the Cpu Governor, and under Governor Optimizers (or in the Sysf folder) and choose the profile_number of your choice:
1 - for Default (set governor defaults)
2 - for Yank Battery -> old untouched setting (a very good battery/performance balanced setting DEV-NOTE: highly recommended!)
3 - for Yank Battery Extreme -> old untouched setting (like yank battery but focus on battery saving)
4 - for ZaneZam Battery -> old untouched setting (a more 'harsh' setting strictly focused on battery saving DEV-NOTE: might give some lags!)
5 - for ZaneZam Battery Plus -> NEW! reworked 'faster' battery setting (DEV-NOTE: recommended too! )
6 - for ZaneZam Optimized -> old untouched setting (balanced setting with no focus in any direction DEV-NOTE: relict from back in the days, even though some people still like it!)
7 - for ZaneZam Moderate -> NEW! setting based on 'zzopt' which has mainly (but not strictly only!) 2 cores online
8 - for ZaneZam Performance -> old untouched setting (all you can get from zzmoove in terms of performance but still has the fast down scaling/hotplugging behaving)
9 - for ZaneZam InZane -> NEW! based on performance with new auto fast scaling active. a new experience!
10 - for ZaneZam Gaming -> NEW! based on performance with new scaling block enabled to avoid cpu overheating during gameplay
11 - for ZaneZam Relax -> NEW! based on moderate (except hotplug settings) with relaxed sleep settings (to react audio/bluetooth/wakeup issues)
Thanks for this man, Just downloaded your unofficial omni build and now this.
Wow! Finally a Custom Kernel for Omni! Much Appreciated

I'm looking into it, tested it fine onto a dirty flash of the latest Omni build, but for some reason when I clean flashed the new Omni version, it doesn't work. As soon as I get it sorted out I'll re-upload the link.

Not really, I'm still testing -and will probably keep tuning- hotplugs and governors. I'm even considering adding Bricked Hotplug too.
The beauty -in my opinion- about Omni is how solid it works. With other roms I've allways stepped into A or B annoying bugs. Not talking down about anybody's work, but even when Omni takes more time to add features, things work better, and I like that. Plus these guys are making a true open source project, not meaning to bloat our experience with the goal of making money -like CM theme manager- but again, that's just my point of view.
Back to the kernel, there's still work to be done. For now, at least I'm getting a much more acceptable battery drain and, in my opinion, a very good idle/deepsleep drain. Yet I'm not too fond about excesive options, and 3 hotplug drivers qualify as way too much to choose from. I love mako_hotplug because of it's simple and clean approach, that's why it's defaulted. But I might find some other works better in lollipop. So please toy with settings and try to find ur better config. And... report back if you can, I could use the feedback.
Thanks for downloading and trying out.
Looks like a very interesting kernel for the omnirom!
What does the 'quick wake up' feature exactly do? Does it remove the slight delay between pressing the power button and the screen turning on?
Could not really find something describing it on google.
Omni is using cpuquiet hotplug, right ?
Is it working good ?

Thanks for this kernel !
Testing since this morning, no problem so far : stable and fast, no battery isue.
Coming from KT & AluCard kernels, it's hard to see the different now, maybe in few days ...
looks interesting alternative to ktoonsez - will surely keep an eye on this - thanks for building for us
This ROM has excellent battery life! Only problem is, the music lag when screen is off. Please look into this!

I guess you meant Kernel instead of Rom?
But yes, the battery life is really nice. I use it with the settings in the opening post, just slightly modified. You could try to raise screen off mhz to 810 mhz, that could help to avoid the lag.
Until now, the battery life isn't better or worse than I had with Ktoonsez Kernel, but its running smooth and without any lags. I'm happy. :angel:
Always like to try a new kernel to see what type of battery life I get. I am going to give it a try now, thanks.
Was curious and tried s version with cm11. Was smooth but alarm does not wake up phone and I also woke up too late. Timer seems not to wake up phone either.
I had issues with playing music. Was interrupting the music often

I changed the default "efficient" profile to my needs using the KTweaker app.
Look at youre "screen off MHz" settings. Mine is set to 486, think default is 128, that's too low for my needs. Furthermore are you UV? If so don't go too low.

Ok . I didnt change anything on it except that i change to efficentdemand as recommended . Dont have a big idea with the Settings. Will play around a bit.

I think you only need to change screen off MHz and disable_hotplugging_media as said and leave the voltages as they are, they are stock.
Use KTweaker to load the provided efficient profile in OP and make the changes.
See how it goes..

Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this KERNEL
before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
Pls Read This before flashing:
You need ROM's default kernel before flashing this, as this kernel makes use of AnyKernel 2 by @osm0sis. Make sure you have it otherwise clean flash the kernel with the rom to avoid any issues.(At least dirty flash rom+kernel) Credits to @attack11 for some part of install script.Read FAQ's and changelogs in 2nd post. THIS KERNEL COMES FINE TUNED OUT OF THE BOX. Some useful battery saving tipshttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64850959&postcount=198

FAQ
F.A.Q. - Read this before complaining!
1. My phone exploded, HELP!
A: I don't answer to problems without a log. The log file is in /proc/last_kmsg. Paste it on hastebin.com and link it on your post. Logcats are useless for Kernel purposes, don't bother posting them.
2. This kernel works on Y or X rom?
A: Works on all CM13 based roms. Not for stock roms!!
3. OMG BATTERY SUCKZ, ITZ DEAD IN 45 MINUTES, HELP!
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.
4. How do I flash this?
A: Read the OP, theres a reason why I added instructions on it.
5. What is a data loss? Did I just had one?
A: Data loss is simply having the connection cut for X periods of time, usually few seconds. Grey bars means the device is not connected to Google services for some weird reason, but you'll still have internet connection.
6. OP is arrogant, I'm gonna call the Internet Police?

What is msm_mpdecision?
100% kernel based multi core decision! (should cpu1/2/3 be online or not?)
This is a special version modded by neobuddy Plus the idle frequency and some load thresholds have been adjusted by me.
Some Configuration:
startdelay = time until mpdecision starts doing it's magic (20000)
delay = time between checks (130)
pause = if something else plugs in the cpu, fall asleep for 10000ms (10 secs)
scroff_single_core = if the screen is off, don't plug in cpu1/2/3. Additionally: Unplug all cpus except cpu0 when screen is turned off (1)
enabled = enable(1) or disable(0) mpdecision. This does not affect scroff_single_core!
min_cpus = min cpus to be online, cannot be < 1. Default: 1
max_cpus = max cpus to be online, cannot be > 4. (if you set it to 2 and min_cpus to 1 you will basically have a dualcore) Default: 4
idle_freq = a value against that will be checked if a core +/- is requested. (600 MHz)
mpdecision's input event boost, aka project butter
This will boost your min cpu speed if you touch the screen or press a button and gives you full control.
In those events the min cpu freq will be risen to a predefined value on every online cpu. This boosts overall reaction times and smoothness a lot. (works similar to the qcom mpdecision binary)
So here's the surprise
Hello folks,
I am using my own optimised builds since initial phase of CM13. Rom and kernel are both build with Uber 5.2.1 and few more optimisations on the kernel (It's same like in the first post). The Uber Toolchain developer said due to new neon optimisations in Uber toolchains, the battery life has increased by 25%. Well using since a long time, I almost get 6hrs+ SOT(Ofcourse will vary with you) and a mindblowing performance. So I am going to provide weekly Uber CM13 builds with optimisations(It is somewhat close to pf-cm by Diamond Bond). The people interested, could use it , It will stay really close to CM and few picks here and there. I would really appreciate feedbacks I am using the build posted and it's really rock stable.
Download :-
All optimised buildshttps://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=44644
Installation :-
A clean wipe is mandatory.
Wipe cache,dalvik cache, system, data
Flash the zip
Flash gapps ( I use slim zero gapps)
Reboot, Enjoy!

This is cool.
Good going
Keep it UP
Check #4th post for the Optimised cm13 builds, Really didn't feel like making a new thread..
Is it fully functional, Like Working mobile data , camera Themes Etc... Is there any way you can provide delta updates to ur rom instead of downloading the whole file.. I'm currently using cm 13 which has no Major issues as of now , so is this rom(dec 2 build) Recommend or should I wait for future builds ?
Thanks IA ��

WARNING :
This kernel is for OnePlus 5 (cheeseburger)
Code:
You will NOT void your warranty after flashing this kernel.
Be sure to make all necessary backups first before processing to installation.
I'am not responsible of any damage caused to your device or data lost after flashing this kernel.
Of course, these are only basic warnings ! but generally you'll not get any problem :)[/COLOR][/FONT]
Some reading..
Welcome to SimpleGX kernel ! a kernel that aims for simplicity, stability, better performance, smoothness and battery life over a pure stock kernel.
This kernel is designed for people who are (like me) bored to flash kernels which integrate tons of unneeded things.
Main goals of it is to stay MUCH closer to stock than every kernels shared here and almost not to be a “custom kernel” on its own. So beware, no exotic stuffs here !
No need for any third app or whatever to control this kernel. Just "flash-n-joy" ! this is how I always liked thing.
Keep in mind that this kernel has been designed for my daily use first.
I would like to personally thanks @Lord Boeffla for his precious help to build my first OP5 kernel ! without him, this kernel won’t be there ! so please consider it.
As always, I'm enjoying sharing my contribution here on XDA for free, which taking me a lot of (my free) time to test before releasing. So, if you can offer me a little beer, it will be really appreciated!
This kernel must be only flashed over an official OnePlus 5 OxygenOS (OOS) ROM !
Feel free to include my kernel to your ROMs / threads but please don't forget to inform/ask first via PM and credit me properly in your original thread. It's always appreciated.

Spectrum explanation
This kernel is now NO MORE compatible with Spectrum app (author: @frap129)
Obsolete details (for reference) :
Since all spectrum profiles are all different between switching from kernels, here is my vision of things : instead of spending time to fine tune interactive gov (etc) in the purposed 4 scenarios offering typically what other kernels may do, I still wanted want to keep simple but efficiency (and not dangerous) settings/tweaks that me be useful for everybody.
Here is all you need to know, what SimpleGX kernel may offer, and the main differences between each profiles.
Full view of the currently integrated Spectrum file (for advanced users) :
Code:
# Balance (default profile)
on property:persist.spectrum.profile=0

write /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/max_brightness 255
BALANCE profile :
This is the stock default profile after flashing kernel. It will be applied as default if you don’t want to switch to another profile. Balance profile will benefit from all you guys know already about this kernel for it’s great stock experience and stock values, looking for best of performance and battery life for everyday use.
PERFORMANCE profile :
Performance profile is looking those who only cares about performance at the cost of battery life. Excellent for UI and overall top tier performance during apps use. I definitely not recommended to let this profile 24/7. Please do not report any bad battery experience while using this profile.
BATTERY profile :
Battery profile is probably the most only interesting profile (at my eyes). Extremely useful in some situations, it will provide you best battery life without scarifying too much performance and keep your device usable everyday. Very useful for days at work or when you reach really low percentages, this profile will probably save your day. Note that also, the min screen brightness has been intentionally lowered to 100 (instead of 255), to reduce consummation.
GAMING profile :
This profile is completely based on performance profile, at the exception of GPU governor changed to performance. Only useful for gaining some extra FPS’s during your gaming sessions. I definitely not recommended to let this profile 24/7. Please do not report any bad battery experience while using this profile.
Welcome in the Kernel OP5 family mate, i'm also a french user (Nice)
Thanks
Can't wait to try this one out..Thanks mate.
Already flash this kernel~
Here we go

thanks for the new kernel which is a good alternative for all users who just used the stock kernel so far Fortunately, I didn't post an update yet for the rom so I can still implement you kernel to the aroma installer menu.
Good luck!

Where do you see it cannot be disabled ? I tried to disable via Kernel Adiutor app and it seems to work without any problem :good:
Anyway, I don't advice to disable touch boost since you will face some slight stutters during some activites (gaming, browsing, etc), stock value is better.

FAQ:
Q: Z00L?
A: i only have Z00T,but i did built it for you, if something goes awfull dont blame me and specify what kinda things happen (if possible, with logs too)
Q: If i've install this on my rom, does it will cause same bug that happen under lineage16?
(For example you're using RR-6 or GroovyAndroid 7.0)
A: No, that was rom bug under Pie custom rom we currently have that unfortunately i couldn't fix unless i find it, fix it and test whole things, i build this kernel for my personal uaage
(For example RR-7.0, Lineage16,AOSPExtended V6.0)
Q: I Want this FEATURE
A: sure, i'll think about it and try merge it later if i have time
Q: Help, There is something WRONG
A: send me your log in proc/kmsg or from log apps
Q: What are you gonna add next?
A: More IO, Governor, Patch, Filesystem Fixes, etc.. if i forgot something please remind me
Q: MSM-Thermal was bugged, it keep enabling itself
A: Dont ask me, i dunno why too.. just delete thermal.conf in system/etc/ to disable them FOREVER
Q: Can I Use F2FS?
A: You can, if your rom support it and also our fstab only support /data f2fs, i might modify it to support cache and system too but for me /data was enough, or you could try messing with that~
Q: When you're gonna release kernel updates?
A: As long i have time to do it and there is something i want to merge, since i also use this kernel as daily driver (My Phone was Z00T).

if you install it, and change CPU Governor to blu_active it will save more battery than interactive/ondemand while retaining good performance, it also have "fastlane" mode in governor option to scale faster (good for gaming), i recomend to use it and set min cpu to 200mhz.
You could also try Zen if Maple didnt work really well for you~ other than that,this kernel also have performance improvement than your lineage16 because i fork it and apply various change that will accumulate from now.
if you want a very good battery life Try This Kernel Configuration:
Disable MSM Thermal by deleting/moving every thermal-engine.conf you could find under system/etc/
Set min cpu 200mhz and max 1,1ghz(big),800mhz(little), change governor to blu_active or use powersave for extreme low power usage since it scale very slowly
(Note:not recomended, i rather use blu_active)
Also disable perfd to make sure your system didnt change anything on your CPU settings
if your phone was Z00L variant, 800mhz was better than making your phone goes higher
(higher than this will use more voltage and cause more heat, even thermal lock your phone into maximum 800mhz most of times)
Set CPU core big min 0, max 4, little min 4, max 4
Disable any touchboost if you had any configured
Use Maple>Zen>SIOPlus (try any of this three)
Set GPU Max 400mhz, Target 400mhz, min 200mhz, for extreme battery saving measure change governor from msm-adreno-tz to powersave
Disable Zswap,Zram
Reduce Entrophy Amount to 64/128
(Also your choice to disable or enable add random)
Disable Gentle Fair Sleepers
Enable I/O Stats
(some apps maintain performance and usage by using this especially mobile games that use Unity)
I might add hotplug later for better battery usage and see if that can be merged also work, hotplug function was managing core better (on/off itself) than system especially since our device usually have 4 little core allways online.
(it wont scale automatically, dunno maybe bugged that's why i've said little core min 4 to make sure there is no lose in performance caused by system for using power-efficient little core less than 4)
Where is the kernel source link? Can't find it in first post.

That commit history seems to be a mess. Are you trying to get travis set up for kernel repo?

i am very sorry, i am doing this on git-web instead of pull and push commit like everyone else did, its really bad right.. and yes, its build using travis instead locally.. currently im pushing new build using linaro-8.3.
Edit: Build pass, everyone can try if they want it
Okay, enjoy 0.1c~ do tell me if you run into problem especially Z00L because i've only test run Z00T.
Note: do read .zip name properly so you didnt flash wrong variant for your phone
For Every Z00T User, i heavily recomend you to flash new 0.1c build for fixing your cpu display and minor kernel error silent
Z00L 0.1c was available now
What Changes Included:
Restored CPU Info
Fix kernel error loop caused by bw_hwmon
(it barely have effect, but why not?)

I try change to bw_hwmon, my phone suddenly restart. I change with kernel adiutor.

it wasnt mean to be used, i only fixed kernel error that caused by this.. just use msm-adreno-tz or simple-ondemand/performance

Hello there! I've been working on a new kernel for the Redmi Note 9s that I think our community will enjoy. I hope to bring a new viewpoint to kernel development that hasn't been seen previously in the dev community.
MUST CLEAN FLASH ROM THEN FLASH KERNEL TO PREVENT LAGGINESS
Philosophy
I just wanted to start off with the goal of my kernel. Illyrian Kernel which is based off of draco kernel isn't a feature-rich kernel, nor is it a performance-bias or power-bias kernel. Illyrian Kernel includes a collection of innovative commits, designed to improve the efficiency of the device. Ideally, I will keep Illyrian kernel up-to-date.
Problems?
-Weird manufacturer error on bootup, only pops up once after every restart (miui only) - FIXED
Upstreaming?
Has been upstreamed to the latest v4.14.183 linux kernel stable
Basic Features
Code:
- Minimal debugging and tracing
- No messy upstreams / backports that might cause issues down the line
- Latency focused
- Anxiety I/O scheduler
- Scheduler tweaks and hacks
- CPU governor adjustments
- ZERO in-kernel boosting while maintaining a smooth userspace
Advanced Features
This is just from the first official beta, so this list may change in the future.
Code:
- Remove AVB checks
- Disable SECCOMP (faster syscalls)
- Disable Audit (expensive in Android)
- Use non-blocking random pool
- Target small cluster in Makefile
- Disable IRQ debugging
- Don't use high-priority workqueue for usb policy_engine
- Disable profiling (kdrag0n)
- Anxiety I/O scheduler (sync read priority)
- Schedule last-woken task for better cache locality
- Reduce cache pressure to keep cache valid for longer
- Increase vmstat interval to reduce intermittent jitter
- Adjust dirty ratios to writeback dirty pages later rather than sooner
- Do not collect I/O stats from block subsystem
- Don't dump oom_killed tasks
- Do not use UFS for randomness
- Disable ASLR fully by default (performance not benchmarked)
- Disable JTAG debugging by default
- Inform kcompact of fragmentation moreso than full RAM usage
- Do not compile HIGHMEM (unused by our system)
- Awaken kswapd at 1% (80mb free left) instead of 0.1% (8mb free left)
- Do not compile watchdog (reduces jitter)
- BFP JIT (better networking performance)
- Force block requests to execute on their origin cpu (better cache locality)
- Increase haptic strength
- Allow GPU to sleep / nap
- Do not compile zRAM (unnecessary for this kernels MM settings)
- Do not perform readahead (proven to improve power and performance by 70%)
- Align scheduler timeslices with jiffies
- Overcommit memory for faster Android start times
- Remove a bunch of debug and tracing that is unnecessary for the kernel
- Remove schedutil hispeed boosting
- Remove iowait boosting (saves a large amount of battery)
- Do not expedite RCU
- Halve round-robin timeslices
- Expedite wakelock garbage collection
- Lower I/O request limit for lower latency
- More that I forgot

Thanks bro, and no worries, ofc it is, this is only the beginning haha we will get loads more development soon
can someone send me the original kernel? is it possible to flash the original kernel via twrp? I tried your kernel but now the phone is extremely slow and unsuable..
EDIT: flashed the original boot.img again -> problem solved

Can we flash this with fastboot flash boot?
wow! its good to see some passionate devs putting some efforts with this phone....waiting for the price to drop cz its being sold at twice the original price in my country ;__;
I like it when we meet someone who loves what they do! The kernel is perfect, using miui.eu, dirty flash, without choking or something, just one question is this kernel focused on being balanced?
Dirty flashed it. Xiaomi.eu 11.0.8. Works great
UI responsiveness is better compared to stock kernel. no lagging.
Nothing breaks. Wifi, bluetooth, in call audio all working as it should.
GPS? not tested as i rarely use gps.
Keep up the good work OP and thanks.
Thanks for the kernel! Do you plan adding wireguard kernel modules? Cheers
