Any kernel for .305 that includes the kcal module? - Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Kcal allows hardware level color control on Qualcomm chipsets. AndroPlus kernel has kcal support, however I can't seem to find a kernel for the latest firmware (.305) that includes kcal. Is there something I'm missing?

[Kernel][TW][AOSP][KK][JB]MaxFour GT-I9500 (5410)[v14]

The first time I made AdaMax was for the Chinese Galaxy S4 Duos GT-I9502. I ported Adam kernel and added more tweaks from other kernels like Persus, halaszk (5420). After several releases, I decidec to spread this kernel to more models. So I built the v8 for both Chinese and international GT-I9500. This thread it for hosting it.
This week, i successed compiling for the s4 with 5410 cpu. As we know GT-I9500, GT-I9502 and SCH-I959. They share almost same compiling configure and their own ramdisk. So I compile them together with almost same features.
At last, I have to make following declarations, AGAIN:
Take your own risk and responsibility on flashing this kernel. I am not responsibale for any loss of your hardware, software, data or warranty.
Read this OP from start to finish before flashing the packages or asking any questions. There is a Q&A section. Any questions already answered will be ignored by me and may be insulted by other members. So save your your keyboard, your time and your data traffic.
No ETAs.
Don't ask me to make this kernel for a specific rom. There are basically only two kinds of roms, AOSP and TouchWiz. So I compile for these two kinds with differnet SDK levels. If it dose not work on some rom, don't blame me and ask me to adapt the rom for it.
If you found a new version, but its download link is not directly showed in this OP, that means it is a version I don't think good enough to be a release. So take your own risk to use it. I will remember your feedback, try to make changes, but not respond with posts.
Thanks to a lot of people, I will add their names here... @wanam, [email protected], @Dees_Troy and Team Win, @AndreiLux
As my habit, I always put the download link first:
v15: https://github.com/maxfu/android_kernel_samsung_exynos5410/releases/tag/v15-9500
File name instruction:
touchwiz: for most used international GT-I9500 with exynos5410 cpu.
aosp: for AOSP KitKat 4.4 roms like CM, ramdisk comes from CM 11
kk442: kernel for KitKat 4.4.2
jb43: kernel for Jelly Bean 4.3
jb442: kernel for Jelly Bean 4.2.2
lite: live version is built with stock zImage and maxfour initrd. It has limited maxfour features. And sometimes selinux f**ks up the STweaks.
boot: system kernel package
recovery: recovery kernel package
kernel: system + recovery combined kernel package
*.tar/*.tar.md5: Odin package
*.zip: CWM/TWRP recovery package
example.1: boot-i9500-aosp kk442-v10f1tc.zip means a system kernel image CWM/TWRP flashable package for international I9500 with TouchWiz KitKat 4.4.2 roms.
example.2: kernel-i9500-aosp-kk442-v10f1tc.tar.md5 means a system recovery combined odin package for international I9500 with AOSP roms like CM.

https://github.com/maxfu/android_kernel_samsung_exynos5410/releases
I open the issue section for the source code, you can report problems here. Please provide at least version aosp/touchwiz jb/kk.
https://github.com/maxfu/android_kernel_samsung_exynos5410/issues/new
The source code:
You can
git clone https://github.com/maxfu/android_kernel_samsung_exynos5410.git
git clone https://github.com/maxfu/initramfs_samsung_galaxy_s4.git
git clone https://github.com/maxfu/toolchains.git
use the build.sh for exynos in toolchains/script ro build the kernel.
you need to su before build the kernel cause the ramdisk belongs to root.
Since this is a side product of my kernel for GT-I9502 which is the phone I am currently using. I don't actually test this build for GT-I9500, so I really need feedback. And please backup your rom before using this.
Features:
Built with OSRC KK 4.4 source and ramdisk, now it should work on many 4.4 roms.
Contains most features from Adam kernel including Wolfson Audio Control. For I9502 which uses yamaha sound chip, Wolfson Audio Control will be hidden automatically since it does not work.
From v10, the kernel is renamed to MaxFour due to wamam's request.
Kernel + Recovery release at one time, recovery based on TWRP with EFS_GSM (for Chinese Duos devices) support.
Compiled with GCC 4.8 toolchain from Google NDK r9c.
Packed in LZMA format to make smaller images.
Native exfat support based on OSRC exfat source code.
UCI script for STweaks and may be others.
Unlocked some hidden CPU frequency: 2.0GHz, 1.9GHz, 1.8GHz, 1.7GHz, 800MHz, 700MHz for big cores; 1.3GHz, 1.2GHz, 400MHz,
300MHz, 200MHz for little cores. Frequencies over stock like 1.7GHz for big cores and 1.3G for little cores are implemented in tc*/overclock version.
Added more STweaks settings which are not included in Adam kernel, including CPU power management, Tools with reboot options, GPU settings, CPU governor.
Android logger is compiled as standanlone module, so user can disable it completely to save power.
Tc/overclock version contains Persus dvfs for GPU with 700MHz overclock, thanks to AndreaLux.
Built-in Seeder entropy generator to provide lag reduction although it is not significant as it was on Gingerbread.
Built-in busybox with auto-installation.
Optimize on ram.
Added several I/O Schedulers including ZEN and ROW.
Built-in dynamic eMMC read ahead
Built-in Asynchronous Fsync
Compiled with compile flag for Cortex-A15 and NEON
Disable KNOX and SELinux when booting, selinux will be set to permissive with the boot command line.
init.d support.
A lot of changes and fixes.
Disabled a lot of rarely used devices support.
PS:
*1. TC means turbocharged, so it is overclock
Change Log:
v15:
Rebuild with GT-I9502 CHN KK Opensource from OSRC.
Upgrade KSM (Kernel Samepage Merging) to uksm (Ultra KSM) which has Super quiet CPU usage, Ultra scan speed and High CPU efficiency.
Support init.d.
Lower CPU frequencies presented in previous versions, voltage options coming soon.
GPU tweak presented in previous versions.
STweaks cueerntly unsupported, coming soon.
mDNIe and Sound Control coming soon.
AOSP support coming soon.
v14:
Upgrade kernel to 3.4.10
Implement AES-ARM and SHA1-ARM crypto algorithm
Rollback selinux related script to v11
v13:
Rebuilt source tree from HNC6 source.
Most features kept
INT, MIF, MEMIO settings removed, these should not be touched
Should be much better than v12
Fixed video bug for AOSP, I think it is fixed
Upgraded AOSP initramfs, may fix the modem/signal problem
Set ro.secure and ro.adb.secure to 0
Camera lag? Less.
Upgraded busybox
v12:
I don't want to talk about it, this version is totally a rubbish
v11:
STweaks: Added Chinese UI, works on Chinese system, when the language is set to other ones, English UI will show. An templete is provided for more translations.
STweaks: Added boost mode in the Misc tab. The boost mode is found when the news of Samsung cheating on benchmark softwares came out. When a benchmark software is detacted running, the boost mode will be on to allow higher temprature and faster CPU scaling. Simply turn on this mode will not provide any visable change, it should be used with CPU, GPU, INT, MIF clock operations.
STweaks: Added control for Internal, Memory Interface and Memory I/O.
STweaks: Added a button to switch the USB mode to Mass Storage Mode, which is classical mode before GingerBread got out dated.
STweaks: Added a CPU wake lock switch.
STweaks: Added instructiuon of Sound Control being not available on models other than I9500.
STweaks: Added instruction of GPU voltage control being not available on non-tc versions.
Kernel: Added a odin mode. Now we can reboot to download mode with "adb reboot odin". The original commands still work.
v10f1:
initial build for XDA users.
Q&A:
I did not reserve a post for this section, so I will put the Q&A here in the OP.
Q: Which package should I use? A: boot is what you need. recovery is just a side product.
Q: Which version I should use? A: Please the "File name instruction" section in the OP, you will find the answer.
Q: Do I need to wipe the data after I flash? A: Well I don't think you need, but due to some report, wiping data can solve certain problems after flashing this kernel. So whatever you like, please backup data before you flash or wipe.
Q: Which rom does this kernel support? A: I can't tell, please refer to the File name instruction section, if you rom is not mentioned there, it is not supported?
Q: Does this support MIUI? A: Official MIUI is based on touchwiz 4.2.2. So please refer to Q2,3,4.
Q: There is no OC in tc version. A: In the init.rc there is a script limiting the CPU frequency to 1.6GHz, so you should use STweaks to unlock it. Please open /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_uV_table, if there is 2000 1900 1800 and 1700, then there is OC, just unlock it.
Q: Some app FC? A: Usually FCs are not due to the kernel, check the rom first, and settings etc, the kernel should be the last reason, cause it just provide the bridge between the system hal and hardware. Report the fc, I will take a look, but I can not say I can fix it.
Q: Battery life? A: It is due to your habit, just like driving a car, a Toyota Prius can use 10L gas if driven by somebody like Michael Schumacher. As my test, due to my habit with non tc version, it is better than stock.
Q: Do I need STweaks to run the kernel? A: The kernel can run without it, but with it you can have more options.
Q: STweaks shows "unextected error"? A: This situation usually happens at the first time STweaks starts, it is OK. Just go on using STweaks.
Q: STweaks FCs. A: Well this sometimes is due to the kernel, sometimes. Here is something you can do: Wipe the STweaks' data, remove /data/.maxfour and /data/.adamax, check the superuser software and give STweaks root access. And yes you need root access. At last, use normal version.
Q: Auto root? A: Use the CWM zip package. And I would take it out soon. Sometimes it breaks root.
Q: Not actually auto-root with v13? A: Yes, v13 will put a wizard like app which will lead you download SuperSU, only when your rom is not rooted.
Q: Conservative governor stock at certain frequency? A: Don't use it, only ondemand governor is optimized for 5410 with big.little cores.
Q: Can you add something? You must do something? Please do something? A: I take advice, but not demand. The reason is simple: I make this kernel due to my interests, not purchase orders. I am not funded for doing this. If the advice is good, I'd take it. If it is just a personal preference, I have to consider it.
Q: Got very low volume of sound? A: Use stweaks, I9500 has wolfson sound control.
Q: Video color is not correct, got blur faces. A: v13 should have this issue fixed.
Q: No internal storage access permission. A: I will make a workaroung later. For now, remount it with rw option through adb.
Q: Random reboot. A: Well, it exists, I admit. I don't know why. I will look for the reason.
Q: After flashing, the phone won't boot. A: Well, I can't guarantee that this kernel works everywhere. And please check if you are using the correct version.
Q: When is your next release? A: I don't know either.
Q: I flashed, it doesn't work. A: Well, it does not work. I don't know why cause it just don't work. I only answer information-rich questions. Questions like this is only a waster of your keyboard, your time and your data traffic. Please at least tell me which version and what rom you are using.
Q: Anything asked above. A: I will keep silence. Other people may insult for this.
Q: Why don't you answer/respond our questions? A: I am a employee, husband, father and son of someone other than XDA and you.

I kept the feature, so it should show up in STweaks on I9500. I am using 9502 which does not have the feature so I can not test it. When I compile for 9500, sound control is enabled.

Well it is hard to say. If you use the normal version, it should be battery friendly. The tc version is overclocked. Due to my 3DMark result, the overclock version maxied out the First and Second stage tests.

Some Proposals
1. Auto Install Stweaks
2. Clearly describe CPU Options which one for big cores and which for little cores
3. Don't lock GPU Frequency at 532MHz as i see by default ... maybe more relaxed 177-532 settings?
4. SELinux is set to Permissive by default ... maybe set as Disabled?
and maybe some very useful Insecure version please?
ro.secure=0
ro.adb.secure=0
(computer translation)
Hi, I already flashed Adam Kernel on my S4. Can I simply flash this Kernel on recovery or do I need to do something else?

gpl | abyss kernel 1.20 | cm-14.x

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.

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.

FAQ:
Q: What should I flash first: blobs or kernel?
A: It doesn't matter
Q: Which ROMs are supported?
A: Nougat ROMs with CM kernel are supported. It's most of ROMs for Oneplus One (LOS, AICP, RR etc).
Q: I have issues!
A: Flash ROM => flash SuperSU/Magisk (optionally) => flash needed kernel and blobs
Q: I sill have issues!
A: Take logcat and kmsg and send me in PM (Telegram preferred)
Q: I flashed my favorite Boeffla kernel and camera stopped working! Help!
A: If you want properly working device with custom blobs, flash this kernel, not any other (except it is mentioned by kernel author).
Changelog:
4_2 (09.03.2017) - Simple GPU Algorithm is replaced by Adreno idler, switched from Anykernel to lazyflasher, performance improved much (battery may drain). Now you can flash kernel on ROM with sultanxda camera HAL
3 (17.02.2017) - sultanxda version of blobs is dropped, added lionheart governor, fully reworked default performance profile (better performance and battery life), default read ahead size is 512KB by default
2_1 (06.02.2017) - Little adjustments to sultanxda version (both kernel and blobs zips updated), no need to update if you're currently on beta2. Alpha2_1 version of OOS blobs
beta2 (01.02.2017) - SELinux is set to Permissive mode by default to fix most of camera problems; updates from LineageOS; some charging fixes
beta1 (26.01.2017) - Initial Release
Finally the magic begins.
The magic is out!
Good job
Interesting. So you're saying you can flash this kernel on any ROM and have SultanXDA's camera HAL?

Installed both zips over the latest resurrection remix 7.1.1 and unfortunately the camera keeps crashing when trying to take photos and videos. Tried with the main and secondary camera and also with flash on and off.
Also saw that 1080p and 2.5k video recording of the secondary camera is not present, so i guess is still a WIP

Does this kernel have uv support?

Thanks! Until I fix this, try to use ut with SELinux Permssive. 1080p and 2.5k formats support is on ROM side
Anyone with official LineageOS? Results? Haha

No.
Btw, turn on permissive so that it can save pictures/not crash.

Yes, its literally magical but it works. Try it for yourself.
Awesome kernel, great battery and slick performance.
So this is it. A prophetic hero who would arise to port Sultan's kernel works to Nougat.
Guess I'm keeping my OPO for another year.
flashed the kernel
also flashed the sultan camera libs, no camera crash experienced, so far great, i cant tell the difference though
Hey! Is this a caf kernel?

Hi! Do you know whether this kernel exposes battery life / capacity information ? I recall when I had a 1+3t some kernels did that.
Added to the OnePlus 5 Index Thread here.

Sorry for the noob question but does unified mean 5 and 5T or single kernel could be flashed on both Stable and beta OOS for OP 5?

Nice to see a new kernel here. Wish you good luck
The kernel is running perfectly on Open Beta 18! Thank you very much for continuing the Flash kernel for OxygenOS ROMS.
@franciscofranco @nathanchance It would be awesome if users will download this kernel using FK Kernel...

@crian Seems promising.. Your kernel is actually on par with what @nathanchance put out..
Anyway do you include latest CAF updates as well?

Wireguard kernel module

Hi everyone,
I use a Wireguard always-on VPN on my OnePlus 7T.
I'm rooted with magisk.
I would like to get better performance and less battery drain with my VPN, so I heard it could run using a kernel module, instead of a user-land code.
When I go in Wireguard app, I get the error "No modules are available for your device".
I would like to know what is necessary to get such module ? Who is in charge of making it ? (Wireguard developers ? OnePlus developers ? Magisk developers ?) And how can we help to get this module done ?
Thank you.
Florent
Yeah you'd need to bake it into the kernel. Find a kernel for a snapdragon 855 device that has wireguard support and ask them. I'm sure someone has made a guide.
Why do we need a *new* kernel ? We can't build kernel modules on Android ?
OnePlus has published 7T kernel sources : https://github.com/OnePlusOSS/android_kernel_oneplus_sm8150/tree/oneplus/SM8150_Q_10.0
Use Blu spark kernel it says wireguard support
