[size=+1]Welcome to Skatter Kernel forum.[/size]
Today I am very proud to release the Skatter Kernel to you guys, I've done hundreds of tests to see what features function well, and which one's don't. The idea behind this kernel is to be able to customize it the way you want, with the best battery possible
Now... let's take a look and see what's inside this bad boy.

Skatter Kernel-v2 is a complete rewrite of v1. What makes this version of the kernel so special?
It's faster, even more stable, and has the ability to run any governor from a 3.10.y kernel.
I've ran many tests and can say, these governors have been playing very nicely with our d2 device. I have not added any junk commits, or any that would cause any battery drain. Also I'm sorry for anyone on marshmallow... but kernel from now on is only going to be nougat and up.
Also I would like to make an introduction to my "Skateractive" governor! :victory:
What does the Skateractive governor do anyways?
Code:
This governor is based on the linux 3.10.y Interactive governor.
I've written it to be mostly a "screen-off profiling" governor.
Meaning, I've added tunables that allow you to customize the governor while the screen is off.
These are...
Timer_rate_multiplier: Name speaks for itself, how many times to multiply timer_rate on screen off. Max number is 10.
Screen_off_maxfreq: Set the limit the max frequency can be reached on screen off.
Screen_off_maxfreq_single_core: If you're like me and use hotplugs you'll notice it can get a bit laggy with music playback when one core is online & max freq is 702mhz. So add a frequency limit for when only one core is online and the screen is off. :good:
* Not a tunable: But enabled powersave bias on screen off & on screen-on back to normal.
Also stripped governor of any unneeded code. For best performance.
Features
* Compiled with a highly optimized Uber 7.x TC

What ROM are you using?
I've tested this on 5 different ROMs, and no reboots here
Kernel seems to be working fine atm, has a int.d script that sets selinux to permissive which is nice when using other mods, currently overclocked device to 1.6 on cpu and 480 on gpu, will push it farther later. Thanks for creating this!
Edit 2: My particular cpu wont go past 1.62 but no biggie there, 600mhz works fine on the gpu so cardboard works better, only one problem thus far. Not sure if it's because of resurrection rom or this kernel since it's my first time trying both out but when taking a vr panorama the final output is all garbled and green. Taking and viewing Photospheres work fine and so do other gpu games and applications. I also noticed this problem when doing a screen recording and looking at thumbnails of videos in quickpic.

[kernel] CM7 kernel(s) SOUND-COLOR-TINYRCU-NODEBUG and more.
Made by bilboa1
Development stopped on this kernel, and will be removed soon from this thread
Fat visible download link http://kang.project-voodoo.org/
Disclaimer:
These kernels are provided as-is without any warranty. I'm not here to provide support etc although I might when I'm able, but don't count on it. If your phone explode, it's your problem. Updates are not guaranteed as well.
What's included
Sometimes: testing stuff from teamhacksung before it goes into their stable upstream
Various tweaks: such as JPX screen timings, Haptic feedback and general vibration intensity slightly reduced
Voodoo sound patch
Voodoo color patch
Led notification: not "BLN" - and no app required - use CM quiet hours for scheduling
Extra governors: Smartass, Interactive
Overclock/Undervoltage: I use [email protected] and 1.2Ghz max and rest default, change voltage with "voltage control" (market). Default settings to 1Ghz.
Easy building system and clear commits: for other devs, and myself too lol
The goods:
Please follow any instruction on the website, for your own good ;-)

[KERNEL][CM7/MIUI][22/04/11] V6pre-u2 - 1.44GHz OC/UV,VoodooSound/Color, LED Notif..
Made by Tk-Glitch
Overview :
- Up to 1.44GHz CPU OC and 240MHz GPU OC (Thanks morfic)
- Undervolting using Pimp my CPU or Voltage Control
- Voodoo Sound & Voodoo Color (Thanks Supercurio)
- Led Notifications (Thanks bilboa1 - See his thread for more information)
- FPS uncap (from 56 to 66) from JPX source
- Various tweaks for more smoothness and reliability
After 4 internal/experimental kernels, I decided to make the 5th one public.
I think it's stable enough to be used on a daily basis (I do).
This kernel provides a bit more extreme experience to the OC AND CM7 lovers.
The frequency/voltage & informative UV settings table is as follow for V6pre kernel :
Note that these UV settings can/will be unstable on some devices.
1440 MHz - 1.475v / -50mv
1400 MHz - 1.425v / -50mv
1300 MHz - 1.375v / -50mv
1200 MHz - 1.325v / -50mv
1000 MHz - 1.275v / -50mv - If you have stability issues, try to let this one by default.
800 MHz - 1.200v / -50mv
400 MHz - 1.200v / -100mv
100 MHz - 0.950v / -100mv - (can be very different between two devices)
Considering all phones will respond differently to OC/UV, tweak the values to suit your device will be needed most likely.
More volts is not always equal to more stability. Try to add more UV (less volts) if the frequency you're trying to achieve is unstable at default voltage.
By default, no overclock/undervolt is applied. You'll need to use one of the tools below to adjust the frequencies and voltages.

Do we really need a list for two kernels?
Even if there will be one or two more kernels for CM7 in the future, I think the existing Kernels list is far enought sufficient.

Yup on battery
Bilboa going to stop development on his CM7 kernel on sgs
why i cant install Platypus nor Glitch kernel in CM7.1? CWM5.something
i also flashed the kernel cleaning by lippol94's updated cleaning script before it. it stuck in the cyanogenmod7 with the arrow loading circularly through the android start up. what should i do?
I've written many new kernel threads, so I'll just try to make this one simple, easy and light to read.
So, let me give you a little background on me: most of you don't know me as I only bought this device few days ago, but I'm a kernel dev for two other phones, the LG P500 and the Ideos X5. Worked on both .32 and .35 trees and my works became very popular, which can be seen by following the links in my signature - specially in the P500 community.
There are plenty of kernels to choose already, so why release another one? Simply because what I have to offer none of the other kernels had. What do I bring? Performance. How do I achieve that? Check the changelog and you'll understand...but not yet, lemme finish!
I have to say this: this kernel is based on KalimochoAz sources, so every changes up to his last pushed sources it's his job, so credits to him, I take no credit from his job.
I didn't start this kernel project for recognition or anything like that, I just want to share what I did for myself, maybe someone will find it useful
So let's get started, below you'll see what I changed on top of KalimochoAz source:
8th December
* Deep_idle code deleted, and re-added. Everything is exactly as Ezekeel has in his kernel, this might, or might not help with the data loss and whatever. If you still have problems please consider disabling deep_idle and see if it helps
* Deep_idle is off by default - changeable with NStools
* Calibrate.c reverted back to the .35 implementation
* Updated CRC32 library to the latest implementation directly from its creator
* Fsync disabling code deleted and re-implemented with a different implementation
4th December
Too many changes, so I'll be just brief and simple:
* CFS autogroup tweaks
* CFS optimizations
* Readahead values automatically calculated by the kernel for the optimal performance
* Several optimizations to lib files
* Added dm-cache (http://visa.cs.fiu.edu/ming/dmcache/)
* More stability
* Much more...
25 November
* Fsyncs disabled - more IO speed, more battery (less IO operations)
* Compiled with the optimized Mjolnir toolchain
* Added 1,2ghz step
* New default colors for the SAMOLED screens
* Cgroup: speed up access to cgroupfs mounted entries in /proc/mounts
* One or two more minor tweaks and optimizations
23 November
* No more BFS code and BFS builds. I want to make sure this is stable enough. If you want BFS compile it yourself. I hope this fixes the data/gsm drops
* Minfree settings unlocked forever
* Readahead value bumped to 1024
* BLN/touchwake fix
17 November
* Patched up to the latest deep_idle version from Ezekeel
* SAMOLED colors tweaked, should be a lot better now
* Few stability updates and reverts to ensure everything is up and running without issues
* Interactive governor added again
* Interactive patched up with around 10/15 patches
* Minor tweaks and optimizations
13 November
* Based on the latest testing builds, which includes:
* Some defconfig options change for a more leaner kernel
* Delete two cflags to ensure maximum Hummingbird performance
* Internal sdcard remount bug fixed
* Minfree settings unlocked by users demand
* Deep_idle implementation changed (it's the same that I used in the last testing version)
* Added latest deep_idle patch that when the phone vibrates it uses the TOP=ON idle state
* Removed obsolete screen dimmer
* Updated BLN to latest v9
* Lazy governor changes based on morfics lazy changes
* Remove Big Kernel Lock tracing
* Some stability patches from the kernel mainline
8 November
* PMEM disabled as herring doesn't use it - this way we recover 12,5mb ram
* Ext4 mounted with special flags directly on the kernel source - more performance without needing init.d scripts
* Writeback settings now working correctly and are not overwritten by the ramdisk
* Minfree settings are now correctly set and are not overwritten by the ramdisk
6 November
* Latest deep_idle bugfix from Ezekeel
* Added Ezekeel's custom_voltage mod. For more info about it visit the respective thread. Yes it's compatible with SetCPU, maybe with Proton too, I didn't test it
* Added back BLD, touch wake and screen dimmer
* Improved CRC32 algorithm - it's used for many kernel functions
* CFS version: Cgroups: introduce timer slack subsystem - Provides a way of tasks grouping by timer slack value. This functionality is useful in mobile devices where certain background apps are attached to a cgroup and minimum wakeups are desired
3 November
* Latest deep idle bugfix from Ezekeel
* Offering two separated downloads, one CFS and another BFS. Don't ask me which one is better, try it and see, I'll be really mad if I get questions like that
* Idle_stats show 0 in every field - don't worry about that, it happens because of my cpu_idle 3.1 backport, but I assure you deep idle is working. Again I'm not answering questions like "WHY IS IDLE STATS 0?!?!? HALP PLZ".
* 'screenoff_maxfreq' is disabled by default. If you want that behavior write this in the terminal: echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/lazy/screenoff_maxfreq
2 November
* Newest deep idle bugfix from Ezekeel
* Reverted back to CFS because stock users had mounting problems with the sdcard and some users had data/wifi drops and I don't want that
1 November
* First and entirely BFS kernel with the newest 0.413 version
* Optimized the tunable BFS parameters for extra interactivity and smoothness
* More debugging disabled - I'm pretty sure 99% of the debugging flags are now disabled
* All the latest bugfixes and implementations from Ezekeel, including live_oc up to 150, lazy maxfrequency_screenoff enabled by default and all the other small fixes to ensure maximum stability
* Small changes to the lowmemorykiller
* Added optimized RWSEM algorithm
* Added some minor improvements and tweaks
* Sorry devs that wanted logcat, it's still a module because I suspect I'll have to update this build again with some extra fixes from Ezekeel in a very near future thus not making much sense to release two kernels now, one with logcat on and other with it off because that takes time to compile. If you desperatly need logcat go to my .config and change CONFIG_ANDROID_LOGGER=m to CONFIG_ANDROID_LOGGER=y and recompile it
27 October
* Latest deep idle and live oc bugfix from Ezekeel - should fix that extra battery drain reported by some users
* Changed lowmemorykiller.c - minfree settings already incorporated in the file. Settings kanged from morfic's tweak file, thanks
* Add cleancache - driver to cache clean pages
* Fixed ext4 disk write performance regression
* Small power management fix to back off suspend if repeated attempts fail - avoid continually trying to suspend in situations in which a driver is repeatedly rejecting suspend or a pending wakeup interrupt is not handled, burning CPU in the continuous suspend attempts
* Lib file added for the users where BLN didn't work
* Logcat module added inside /system/modules. If you want to use logcat just load the module with insmod
24 October
* BLX added again by default and patched up to the latest fix from Ezekeel
* Deep idle patched up to the latest fix from Ezekeel
* Live OC added and patched up to the latest fix from Ezekeel. To overclock you need to do this in the terminal or in an init.d file: echo 110 > /sys/class/misc/liveoc/oc_value. The 110 value means that both cpu frequency and bus frequency will be increased by 10%. You can increase this value as much as you want, as long as you increase the voltages otherwise the device won't handle it, but that's obvious.
* Changed dirty_writeback values from morfic to increase smoothness
* Overclock frequencies removed. The device is fast enough with 1000,800,400,200 and 100 frequencies. If you want to overclock use Live OC, it's enough to make it fly
* Conservative governor tweaked - smooth as butter
* Removed a ton of debugging ****
* Deadline I/O scheduler made default - after much testing it seems to produce the best and more regular results
* Swappiness disabled
* For more information visit my github, this are the most important changes
21 October
* Latest Deep idle bugfix from Ezekeel
* sched: disable GENTLE_FAIR_SLEEPERS
* Remove few obsolete governors
* BLN fix for MIUI users - now it should be propely set and full working
* Just 3 more tweaks:
PM QoS: Correct pr_debug() misuse and improve parameter checks
mmc: core: put eMMC in sleep (cmd5) mode before suspend
vmscan: prevent background aging of anon page in no swap system
19 October
* UV **** is fixed, SetCPU and Proton should work fine now
* Config_HZ increased to 1000 by request of an user
* Small tweak to VR
* Compiled with special Cflags from netarchy
* Calibration tweaks for touchscreen from netarchy
18 October
* Update cpu freq. to allow UV interface - you can modify the voltages on the fly going to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_mV_table with an easy layout
* Auto BLN added again - it works now out of the box without the need of an extra app
* Add Lazy governor by Ezekeel
* config edited again, removed alot of **** options that are not needed at all - this way the kernel is even leaner
* cpu_idle backport from 3.1 - maybe helps with the BSOD problem
* Tweaked VR scheduler to work better for flash devices like our Nexus
* Ext4 tweaks
* A lot of USB tweaked code
* More fs tweaks to decreast CPU usage on unecessary ****
* More TCP/IP tweaks
* vfs_cache_pressure -> 25
* dirty_background_ratio -> 60
* dirty_ratio -> 90
* vm_swappiness -> 30
* Sysfs interface for deep_idle created by Ezekeel was added. If you want to disable deep_idle run this command: echo 0 > /sys/class/misc/deepidle/enabled
* Screen refresh rate increased to 65hz, everything should be even smoother (thanks morfic)
* If you want more detailed information about all the tweaks added you can visit my github
----------
* No more debugging **** in the kernel. No logcat, no dmesg, no debug_kernel etc etc, this **** is clean on that logging stuff that only consume CPU cycles in the background
* CFS scheduler tweaked with custom settings
* dirty_writeback value increased from 5*100 to 15*100, reducing unnecessary I/O activity, thus releasing a few CPU cycles
* Deep Idle mod by Ezekeel (latest version)
* Few patches to lowmemorykiller.c hopefully to optimize memory usage
* Add VR I/O scheduler and made default. A lot of performance gain comes from this one.
* Also enabled BFQ scheduler to be an option with no-frills
* init/calibrate.c port from 2.6.39. Better loops per jiffy calculations
* vfs_cache_pressure 100->50
* Add Stochastic Fair Blue (SFB) network scheduler and make it default. This is a network packet scheduler, should make internet usage a lot smoother
* Changed TCP_congestion scheduler to TCP_Veno. TCP Veno module is a new congestion control module to improve TCP performance over wireless networks. The key innovation in TCP Veno is the enhancement of TCP Reno/Sack congestion control algorithm by using the estimated state of a connection based on TCP Vegas. This scheme significantly reduces "blind" reduction of TCP window regardless of the cause of packet loss.
* Tiny RCU is the default RCU engine. More explanation on this RCU here http://lwn.net/Articles/323929/
* Kernel compiled with -O2, meaning the code is more optimized instead of being compiled for size
* WiFi = PM_FAST in standby
* Optimized the config options for CFS Autogroup in the .config file, it should be perfect now
* Again more and more debugging disabled
* Obviously some minor changes and tweaking, but that can all be seen in my github below

As for the rest - I would imagine it works, considering it does on all of the above, but dont quote me.
Here is the original thread that has been up for a while, this is where I searched to find out if it was compatible with certain roms.

I get bootloops on matrixs rom
Hi all,
I deleted all my old projects because i wasnt quite happy with them, so i created this kernel called Private Kernel because i thought i completly stop development on xda because downloads were quite low and decreasing from version to version. But now i am back with this kernel, i hope you enjoy it. I hope i did not do any mistakes with devDB
CAF Feature differences to his kernel:
* francos thermal driver tuned to work with the VADC sensor (more accurate throttling results)
* not underclocked by default
* added more ioschedulers (BFQ default)
* cpuquiet hotplug
* compiled with uber linaro toolchain
* some small various tweaks etc....
Only for roms with sultans CAF kernel! I dont support any weird combinations of camera hal's blobs and drivers.
CM13-Nightly Kernel features:
* francos thermal driver tuned to work with the VADC sensor (more accurate throttling results)
* tuned the BFQ I/O scheduler
* powerd my msm_hotplug
* synced with googles android 3.4 branch
* KCAL
* compiled with uber linaro toolchain
* CPU undervolt feature
* added the 268mhz CPU frequency
* some small various tweaks etc....
Tested on cm13 nightlys. I dont support any weird combinations of camera hal's blobs and drivers.

Thanks. I was waiting for a simplistic CAF kernel with just optimizations for a while now.
Kernel fast & smooth but in me the wifi is switch off by itself while idle
And for the battery compared to stock darkobas I feel this kernel got more long lasting one
Working well with CAF Temasek. Very smooth! Are we allowed to give feature request? If so, I'd like to request CPU voltage tuning. Thanks
Two cores always online by default?
Flashed on BrokenOS 6.0 and working well... Hope you'll add CPU govns in feature builds.

The wifi driver is exactly the same like on sultans stock kernel. Your problem must be with darkobas stock kernel, too. And i am sure that your wifi problem is rom related. I get 4 - 5 hours SOT on MM.

naveenjohnsonv said:

Yes this is the design of my hotplug. We have 4 cores on our device core0 core1 core2 core3. And core1 is always be onlined and offlined all the time and this eats up your battery.
"Every time a core gets kicked in, there have some calculations to be made, which needs battery. Onlining a core also needs some battery every time. You're using your device and cores are getting kicked in and out, because you have some more idle phase and some more heavy load phase.
Remember also that even if all cores are online, it doesnt mean a core cant enter a battery saving idle state if it doesnt have anything to do.
Online doesnt mean the core is active the whole time, it just doesnt get kicked out, which in the end is best for low latencies. The higher the idle state, the more time it needs to get active again. But its always faster than getting kicked out."

Sounds great �� Thanks. Working perfectly well.
@DerRomtester glad to see you back! I've never used your kernels before (my apologies!). I tend to use stock kernel to test ROMs. I also know how you feel when downloads time and again decrease and never increase. But trust me, there will always be someone that appreciates what you do. I know this is a CAF kernel but if you have the time, I suggest you give the latest OxygenOS 2.1.4 a spin. I know its not the latest OS or the most features but just on stock kernel, I'm getting great battery life out of it! I'm at 41% now with 39hrs standby and 5hrs SOT with less than 5hrs on wifi!
Stock kernel has input boost clocked at 1.7Ghz and stock interactive 1.2Ghz (hispeed_freq) with minimum frequency at 300Mhz and maximum frequency at 2.5Ghz. I did not tweak any kernel related things.

hi, thanks for the new version! is it possible that this is good for 4.4.2 Sling Kahroba Edition?
Tante Gracie Works great. Currently im using Kernel Adiutor, and i observed that there is no o/c options for cpu, i remember, that in older version of SK (propably early 1.x) there was o/c to 1,7GHz. I don't see it because im not using TricksterMod or it's just not implemented? I don't care too much about o/c but it's nice to know
And i have also conservative gov. only.
I have only the governor "conservative" this is normal?

And i have also conservative gov. only.

I like to focus on one single governor, you can optimize power consumption through the hotplug settings (min max cores online).
Back to stock tonight, thanx @Loller79

Thank you for your attention Loller79
Finally you've done what you had promised:fingers-crossed:
P.S. bro rom doesn't work good anymore.
On 1.95, it was totally stable but now its much slower.
Please fix this problem. Having intelliplug was really good too.
But now the major problem is the governer. With conservative After it comes down to 384, device becomes so slow! Not normal anymore!
I think 1.95 version was good it just needed some improvements...
Hey will this work for Marshmallow ROMs?

Its really gr8 to see u again... I know that your kernel is minimalist and i really love that about it but i think its now been taken too far this time... It'll be awesome if you add these features:
1. Set the stock/ base /default clock to 384-1512 (LG stock) and 400 for gpu. This will prevent the phone from overheating during booting.
2. Add governers : Intelliactive , interactive , Ondemand , conservative for CPU and simple , ondemand , performance , conservative for GPU..
3. Underclock and overclock options: 192 to 1728 and 487 for gpu.
4. USB OTG hack
5. CPU and GPU voltage control.

Im totally agreed.
We're waiting for this update Loller79
Id love to have a feature rich kernel too, but im so greatful for what Loller79 has provided nonetheless. More features =more bugs =more time to fix. LGOG is not his primary phone anymore and he appears not to have the time to devote to us. Beggars cannot be choosers. Im yet to use 2.1 stock, bug reports would be welcome. [emoji1]

I'm so so sorry..apologize me have forgot reading the comment..ok cool so this is just only have consevative
Great work thanks !
Is there any way to configure the Doubletap2wake ?
I'm asking because it doesn't feel as natural as an LG G3 for example, sometimes I need to triple or quadruple tap for it to work.
Thanks a lot
configure in

I already have it enabled.

EDIT : I think it has more to do with response time because I have installed the Jolla kernel and it's smoother than this one.
I still prefer the Solid Kernel, is there any way to edit the response time of the kernel (in jolla's one it's 100ms) ?
Thank you
[size=+1]Welcome to Skatter Kernel forum.[/size]
Today I am very proud to release the Skatter Kernel to you guys, I've done hundreds of tests to see what features function well, and which one's don't. The idea behind this kernel is to be able to customize it the way you want, with the best battery possible
Now... let's take a look and see what's inside this bad boy.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Skatter Kernel-v2 is a complete rewrite of v1. What makes this version of the kernel so special?
It's faster, even more stable, and has the ability to run any governor from a 3.10.y kernel.
I've ran many tests and can say, these governors have been playing very nicely with our d2 device. I have not added any junk commits, or any that would cause any battery drain. Also I'm sorry for anyone on marshmallow... but kernel from now on is only going to be nougat and up.
Also I would like to make an introduction to my "Skateractive" governor! :victory:
What does the Skateractive governor do anyways?
Code:
This governor is based on the linux 3.10.y Interactive governor.
I've written it to be mostly a "screen-off profiling" governor.
Meaning, I've added tunables that allow you to customize the governor while the screen is off.
These are...
Timer_rate_multiplier: Name speaks for itself, how many times to multiply timer_rate on screen off. Max number is 10.
Screen_off_maxfreq: Set the limit the max frequency can be reached on screen off.
Screen_off_maxfreq_single_core: If you're like me and use hotplugs you'll notice it can get a bit laggy with music playback when one core is online & max freq is 702mhz. So add a frequency limit for when only one core is online and the screen is off. :good:
* Not a tunable: But enabled powersave bias on screen off & on screen-on back to normal.
Also stripped governor of any unneeded code. For best performance.
Features
* Compiled with a highly optimized Uber 7.x TC
* Tons of optimizations (-Ofast, Graphite, Cortex-A15) and lots more :good:
* CPU UC/OC from 162MHz to 1836Mhz
* Set to Permissive
* Net Speed Tweak
* Decreased time to enter deep sleep
* Optimized GPU
* Enabled Low Power Memory Mode
* Quick Wakeup Driver
* Some Aggressive Seeder Tweaks
* Optimized Square Root Algorithm
* More memory from loggers (Cause the more RAM, the better)
* Screen Tweaks for filling blank spots with more color
* Voltage Table, for your UV/OV Needs
* Tweak to disable Powersuspend when State Notifier is enabled.
* Set standby frequency to 54Mhz.
* Tweaked to lower Thermal throttle on screen off.
* UKSM for better ram, set to not consume so much battery.
* Frandom.
Decimalman's features
* Overclocked GPU to 600, modded & upped to 750Mhz.
* And his super badass tierservative & freelunch governors :good:
* Fast charge patch, no need to diconnect :good:
* Tiered GPU Governor, very nice with frequencies.

Great Skatter! Am I the first here?! ....Well I Know how those tests went so I'm looking forward to good things here! Incidentally I was just going to re-try the Latest RR again, first time I did, had a problem connecting to wifi so I kinda aborted...but I'm going to flash it right now and see if i can get a signal, by that time this puppy should be finished downloading....Flash the "Skatter Kernel" next! Congrats! to you Bro!
Nice one.. Bug ups.

Skatter Kernel
This Bad boy....Is Baaad! They are so many areas that work so well with this ResurrectionRemix ROM!! Best battery is definitely a :good: :good: I can most certainly attest to that. I'm using the 'nightmare' governor and left the I/O scheduler at 'bfq', no other tweaks and battery life (even with wifi on) has been fantastic! :good::good: to you @Lonelyskatter12 !! Excellent Work!
Welcome to the Skatter where its greater! Lol... My man been working on this for a long time now! Glad to see it finally released! ??
I just found this kernel a few days ago as I was browsing the S3 development page. I gotta say I love the kernel. So may governors, and so much to work with (customization wise). The only thing is, would anyone have any suggestions for a setup for the best performance (Dont care about battery drain as I will always keep it plugged in while doing this!) When I'm on my couch, my phone is usually tethered to the charger. I want the best possible performance to be put out by my device while its tethered. I use Kernel Adiutor.
Any suggestions for best performance would be nice. :good:
UPDATE: So I've fiddled with the settings on this kernel. This kernel + my usual battery savers (greenify, etc), makes a great power save while the device is idling. Even with a powerful governor on its still pretty power conservative. It sat at 100% charge while I was using it this morning for some game on a performance governor (not performance in general) Also take note that it is over clocked to 1836MHz and the minimum is in 600-800MHz
Do you mind to add freelunch? I usually run on freelunch and fifo. Thanks.

I don't mess much with performance govs, since my battery is pretty old, but also tweak the gpu a bit too, to get the best performance :good:
Simple gpu gov is great with laziness =2 & ramp_threshold=8 :good:

I wanted to say thanks Skatter. Still going to play with all the options but I tried your gpu changes above with cm13 and this phone is very usable! That little change did remove some jank for me and battery seems unaffected :good:
Thanks man
So I installed this kernel with your RR rom and I like it very much, but when I play a game like Galaxy on Fire 2 or Robots, the game crashes or stops responding right after entering the menu screen. I have lots of RAM and I have played these games quite fine on other devices, so what's happening?
