Andromeda Kernel
Supported: SM-N910F & SM-N910V
Do not try to flash this on ANY other variant than the N910F (Snapdragon, European)! It might work, but it can fail and end in a bootloop! Testers for SM-N910G wanted!

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.

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!

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...

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..

I test every my release on my own device before the official release so there is no big chance to brick your device if you follow instructions.
Thanks:
First of all HUGE thanks to my friend @duki994 for all the help great guy! without his help this would never be the same kernel.
@ferreirawax for his AWESOME guide!
HUGE thanks to @dorimanx for his fixes on the kernel source to build and boot properly and for everything else he is a kernel master.
@faux123
@bruce2728 for fixes

Well, cloudyg3 is based on f320 system so it's maybe because of that. I know that f320l/k/s on kitkat could boot with a d802 kernel but had problems like Fmradio etc.. i dont know why it does not work here so wait for cloudy to release it official or maybe I will try to find how fix it.
@somboons which kernel did you use in modded cloudyg3?

Yes that is the reason why it doesn't work it needs to be modified f320 ramdisk for d802 i think
My kernel would have only what's needed. However users can request a feature and if i find it worthy i would test it and add.
I am keeping short and writing the features i have added so far !
FEATURES:
V 1.4 : [ As of now only CM based ]
Switched to latest CM13 source base
Voltage control
More refined sandy charger control
Tuned elementalx governor
Darkness governor
Kcal tweaks
FIOPS & SIO added
Compiled with latest uber toolchain
Other tweaks from my end
V 1.3 :
FIOPS scheduler added
Tuneups to interactive governor
Changes to elementalx and it's tunables.
Solves potential MTP mode USB issues and sound issues.
Full synapse support added ( Doesn't directly come inside from my kernel. You will have to flash separately ). Thanks to @yarpiin
More thermal changes
Lot more in store
To download synapse flashable zip refer third post
Please install CM camera next mod which is also available under downloads section. Just install it as normal apk. Hotplug has video rec freeze on stock OP camera. Blame Oneplus for it.
V 1.2 :
Sandy charger control. Now charge your op2 much faster than stock ( Use synapse or updated kernel adiutor app [available in my downloads,not playstore of kernel adiutor] to enable it and control )
Intelliplug. Use it wisely and according to ur usage
Initial support to synapse ( The bulk needs to be still controlled via Kernel Adiutor )
Initial attempt at porting Faux Sound control ( It's not working completely yet. Will be fixed soon )
Merged with latest Oxygen 2.1 source
Plenty of other features hidden.
Initial release :
Compiled with Sabermod gcc 4.9 toolchain
Powersuspend with different modes
USB Fast charge
Intelligent cpuquiet hotplug framework ( Based on NVDIA and tuned to msm )
ElementalX governor from flar ( with latest patches )
Kcal control ( colour control driver by savoca )
Fsync on/off support
BFQ I/O scheduler added
Thermal code tweaked heavily ( device should stay at it's coolest )
Optimized for best performance and battery ( you can get some of the best results )
Smoothness guaranteed
Rcu,sched,mm and other various enhancements
There are plenty more hidden ! Just use and experience the kernel. Don't forget to post your reviews
I can only say that you can get one of the best experiences with probably no real bugs !

FAQ's
Q : Will this work on all ROM's ?
A : It will work bugless in Oxygen OS, but could give you bugs in CM or CM based ROM's ( as they are under alpha stage )
Q: OMG ! Baettaryyy SUCKZ ! STAPH putting lame kernels
A : My kernel is intended for battery and performance. I have no intention to build a kernel for battery draining. Your drain comes from your location apps,wake locks,etc. Use App ops or servicely app and check damn wakelocks & keep awake of your apps ( Play services, Maps, facebook,etc )
Q: What governor do you suggest ?
A : I have included only one governor ( elementalx ) other than stock and hence i would suggest you switch to it if it's not pre-switched after flashing.

Gotcha, definitely appears to be the most competently developed one we've seen thus far.
Am I to assume that the lack of included governor list indicates that it's the same as stock? I could really dig me some smartmax..

does elementalx efficient in terms of battery?
Hi oneplus2 people!
This is my modified kernel with some kernel optimizations and some compiler optimizations.
The goal of abyss is to achieve improved performance/battery without the cost of stability.
I will not be overhauling this project with changes that are not logical to add.
This kernel should work on the latest 7.x.x roms like CyanogenMod.
It might work on other roms, but there will be little support for them.
How does one achieve this?
- build kernel with an optimized toolchain
- use compiler optimization flags (experimental)
- remove redundant code
- improve existing code with more efficient code
- etc. (most are not so easy to explain)
This kernel is built with mdalexca's latest UBER GCC 4.9.
Is there actually a performance improvement?
With all the changes added up, there should be. Whether or not one notices the difference is another thing.
For those interested in how the kernel optimizations will benefit/work, please look at my github source and read the commit messages.
For those interested in how the compiler optimizations/hacks will benefit/work, please look at this article.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Is this a custom kernel?
I was asked this question once, and it posed as a real good question. I do not consider abyss to be a "custom kernel" per se, but more so as a modified kernel. The patches and features that go into this kernel do not make it customizable. What they do is improve what has already been implemented. It is like swapping a car's engine for a better one rather than just adding LED flooring lights and fancy car mats.
Can you add [this] and [that] feature?
Something I pride myself with this kernel is that it does not have a bunch of random, useless features or patches mashed into it. Everything put into this kernel is thought out and tested. I see a lot of works being made popular because it has [this] and [that] feature when really, it's nothing revolutionary. As a matter of fact, most things added to any kernel will not make it 5x better than any other kernel. Most of the time, simple is better; and in this case it definitely is!
For me
Thanks! I'll give it a go.
Giving it a go

I have not made any file system changes to the kernel. If the stock CM kernel supports, then this one will too.
Is kcal support present..??

You can probably see how much I've grown as a developer since then too :angel:
Works on a f2fs filesystem based rom. Testing it now...
Edit: No obvious bugs at the moment. Is it possible to implement some sort of charging control. The USB charging speed is super slow (on both this kernel and stock CM kernel).

Nice!! thank you!!
Pretty smooth haven't found any bugs. Love the simplicity.
I can't imagine what it would be like with a little over clock.

I trust the engineers that designed the chip to choose a safe maximum clock speed. Here's a pretty good article on the risks vs benefits, which outline some strong points.
But, if I were to add it, I would set the max value at boot to stay as stock values; so I'll leave it up to @dsst22 to decide.
I'll try this out for you dude. Impressive what you've done.

Running great so far. I had one instance of the phone lagging for a couple seconds, but that hasn't occurred again. Great work!

At the moment I have not planned that.
First of all, thanks for your work on this (still) awesome phone.
I'd like to try your kernel but I can't live without kcal control (night mode isn't enough for me), so I was wondering if it may be added one day or if there's no chance .
Not really asking to add it, but that's just to know if I should not waste my time, I hope you understand it in the correct way.
Have a nice day [emoji1360]

I had kcal in a test build and the driver seemed to be broken.
But I can check this again.
Hello dev..
Thank you for the good work for me it works very fine.
I have a question plz.
why is it not possible to permanently turn off processors? The other thing the Boeffla kernel has is the ability to amplify the speakers louder, for example, to listen to music. your kernel does not have that rights.

Hotplugging is a very bad idea on newer SoCs, such as our SD835, thus you shouldn't turn off any core anyways, that's why, there is no option for this.

It might be an idea not to include Magisk. Not everyone wants root.
You can add suport to ntfs sd?
