great
5 Stars for this good kernel
+1
Thanks for your work but I noticed you repo has a lot of branches. what branch is used for AOSP? my-brood-kk I assumed. but I'm not 100% sure
Is nice to see you have your own thread now .
I'm going to test the new kernel now on jamal's RC2 and report on the usage.
Thanks!
Awesome

Cheers!
Alucard Many Thanks from Portugal for your EFFORT.
No RR anymore..
does this kernel have better performance than stock GE kernel? or same? would be awesome a tweaked linaro GE kernel :good:
Alucard you refer that latest kernel release is v2.3.4lg,
i installed but on my kernel version is 2.3.4l, i do not have "lg"
is it ok?

Overview:
I’m a newbie to rebuild and compile a custom kernel. I like to learn new things and share with you my modified version of 14.5.A.0.242-Kernel
It is basically a mixture between some developers kernel source like e.g.,cocafe,DooMLoRD,alnikki25k.
I'm not a developer so I cannot answer your question about any bugs for this kernel immediately. I will try to ask other developer how to
resolve bugs. Experts, please correct me if I am wrong, this stuff is still new to me also.

nice start
Seems to be working fine so far.... good job :good:
I'd like to suggest some features :
Intellimm
Intelliplug
more tcp congestions algorithms (e.g. westwood)
gpu governors
etc etc
i flashed it but it wont start after boot
I installed a based rom [Advanced]RockZ1l_v1.1

Yup, doesnt boot after flashing kernel
I installed it on stock sony rom, not-deodexed
BUT after i reinstalled xposed (instruction for odex), and wipe cahce, phone is booted...infinitely loaded and can not run (
Yep confirmed doesnt work on RockZ1l_v1.1 also !
No boot and no acces to recovery (blocked before)
Had to flash boot.img via fastboot and restored my backup...
i will try to see what i can do, but i need time to learn first

Do you have to unlock bootloader?
I used PRFCreator to make D5503-pre-rooted-firmware-14.5.A.0.242 zip. For me this kernel to be working fine so far.
try to:
- fastboot flash boot boot.img (from kernel zip)
- fastboot reboot
- enter recovery, and flash kernel zip
- flash SuperSU installable ZIP (option)
to be included in next changeLog:
kexec-hardboot: still not fully work as Primary ROM(MultiROM v30x), i am waiting Garcia98's or other developer update MultiROM to v32
enable additional TCP congestion algorithms(westwood,bic,htcp,vegas,veno,yeah)
Simple GPU Algorithm
change wireless expire time about each entry of scan results(3 * HZ)
net: rps: fix cpu unplug
Sync SSR with disconnect/reconnect
overall_stats
With Kernel Adiutor application you can more tweak and monitor features
I have just one simple question really, F2FS?

Overview:
I’m a newbie to rebuild and compile a custom kernel. I like to learn new things and share with you my modified version of 14.5.A.0.242-Kernel
It is basically a mixture between some developers kernel source like e.g.,cocafe,DooMLoRD,alnikki25k.
I'm not a developer so I cannot answer your question about any bugs for this kernel immediately. I will try to ask other developer how to
resolve bugs. Experts, please correct me if I am wrong, this stuff is still new to me also.

IMPORTANT:
Always make necessary backups before flashing anything. In this case backup your stock boot in recovery before proceeding.
I will only consider issues that includes clear steps to reproduce the bug, a logcat or a console ramoops (in case of random reboots) or a dmesg (for other issues), because it provides more info than just saying something doesn't work.
Features:
Latest linux upstream version 3.10.108
Up to date as per AOSP/kernel-common and CAF
Unlocked frequency steps for CPU and GPU
Advanced color (kcal) control
Fingerprint sensor as power or home button by flar2
Sound control by flar2

Flashing Instructions for custom roms:
Download TWRP recovery from here.
First backup boot in TWRP then flash the latest LoonyKernel zip. Reboot to system.
For magisk users, if you have already flashed magisk once, there's no need to re-flash it again after flashing the kernel. Magisk root will be retained.
Subsequent releases can be flashed over the same kernel's older version.
Flashing Instructions for stock rom:
Use only official TWRP for flashing on stock nougat or oreo rom. If you are using elementalx kernel then first restore the stock boot image or kernel then flash this kernel to avoid any potential issues with module(s).
Download official TWRP.
Backup boot in TWRP.
Flash latest LoonyKernel zip and reboot the device to system.
Subsequent releases can be flashed over the same kernel's older version.

Reworked CPU oc/uc support to 403/499mhz levels (anything more lower shall yield no real benefit)
Updated spectrum profiles
7.0 Stock Release 1:
Some kernels have different workarounds for modules, therefore, it is recommended to flash 7.0 kernel only over your stock rom kernel. Don't flash over any other custom kernels. This is to avoid any issues with important modules such as wlan (wifi). Subsequent releases can be flashed over the same kernel's older version.
Based on NPJS25.93-14-15 sources by Motorola
Properly up-streamed up to Linux stable 3.10.108
Updated wifi/wlan drivers from latest 7.0 sources from CAF
Added all features mentioned in 1st post. (list updated in op)
Applicable updates from r7 oreo changelog were also merged.
June 14, v6.2:
Fixed mobile hotspot for both 32/64 bit
Removed conservative cpu governor
Switched too GCC 4.9 (Higher GCC versions are causing issues with data, wifi and hotspot as witnessed by some users)
Final update to katnap governor
NOTE: Since v6, I recommend using default kernel settings for CPU, GPU, clock speeds and governor profiles rest you can change. Why? read the explanation below properly...
v6 release came with spectrum app support which allows to switch between various user modes which are - Gaming, Battery, Balanced (default) and Performance. Thanks to frap129 a.k.a Joe Maples for spectrum. You can use the spectrum app to switch between various modes as per your needs with just a single tap.
For e.g. before starting a game just switch to "Gaming" mode from spectrum app to improve the game-play. After game-play is over don't forget to switch back to "Balanced" mode which is also the default. You can also choose "Battery" mode when you keep your device idle for maximum savings. If you prefer smooth user experience without worrying about battery then "Performance" mode is for you.
Both "Performance" and "Gaming" modes are battery hungry but will improve the user and gaming experience respectively so use them accordingly. Similarly don't expect great performance or smooth user experience from "Battery" mode.
"Balanced" mode is self-explanatory.
No support from my side if you're using some kind of mods that might conflict with above mentioned kernel settings. Fair enough! don't need any false reports where the problem might be because of any such mod.
Might be bitter but had to say this, don't bother reporting problems if you can't do it properly. Haven't seen a single post reporting wlan issues with logs and surprisingly I'am not a god who can guess issues from nothing. XDA is a community where users shall also contribute to make things better. Just coming here and searching for download links then complaining about stuff not working... it doesn't work this way. We don't expect much from users, we only want that if we're putting some efforts then users should also take at least some effort to give proper bug reports and feedback. For someone who doesn't know how to take logs etc. try google, you'll find tons of guides over internet and here at XDA itself. Thank you.

Few kernel-common updates.
April 28, Release v5:
32-bit support added!
Changes merged from CAF branch (1.3.6) and Google kernel-common
Removed CRC enable/disable toggle - We know we want CRC disabled by default to avoid ~30% performance cost. So, it doesn't make sense to have a toggle for it as users may unknowingly enable it which defeats the whole purpose of disabling it by default in the first place.
Enable 320k AAC encoding
Tuned CFQ i/o scheduler
Added touchboost which is disabled by default. Enabling it will significantly improve the performance at the cost of battery life. This feature can be enabled using kernel manager (EX kernel manager recommended)
Replaced wakeup boost with Fingerprint Boost driver.
Removed boot and boostpulse sysfs nodes from interactive governor. Neither we were using it nor it is needed, users can enable cpu-boost if needed.
Updates wlan prima (wifi) driver to latest CAF tag LA.BR.1.3.7-04410-8976.0
Using cpu_relaxed_read_long and defining relaxed version of some arm64 specific macros, and functions to improve power efficiency. (this one is only for arm64)
Some cpu-boost code clean-up. Removed migration related boost from cpu-boost. Handled by scheduler and governor now.
Added display state awareness to msm_adreno_tz gpu governor. This aids adreno_idler by reducing the overhead.
Backlight dimmer toggle (disabled, enabling this would allow to lower brightness even more)
Apr 05, Release v4.1:
Restore default gpu clocks
Sdcardfs space leak fixed,
Updates merged from google android kernel-common,
Enabled ARCH_POWER and added toggle to enable/disable the same through EX Kernel Manager,
Nuked gentle fair sleeper toggle and re-enabled gfs. Disabling it was causing cores getting stuck at max freq for most of the time,
Added wake-up boost to avoid or atleast minimise any potential wake-up delays. I've personally never faced this on Oreo but some people reported it recently,
Added some more potential wakelocks in Boeffla wakelock blocker driver,
Wlan driver updates merged from latest caf release LA.BR.1.3.7_rb1.11,
Some efforts towards improving memory management a bit.

You can configure that using kernel manager.
Alternative option is to use button mapper app by flar2.
i have a lag after flash this kernel. but thank you
When I play a song or a video the sound is crashing, something like cutting, I give u a log and thanks for the effort
Turbo charger doesn't work for me charges very slowly and phone heats up quickly! Any work around with kernel auditor?
I'll flash version 2 and let you know if anything changes

Not released use the attached zip for nougat it is stabler than 9.1 but not updated in the directory. Features are more or less same.
For xt1625 users after flashing updated loony my phone hangs at unlocked bootloader warning for minutes. All you need to do is power and volume down boot into fast or bootloader mode whatever you call it and choose start again loads fine after that.
To add HDR is probably not going to ever work with xt1625 that's were the devices are different the plus has a 16 mp camera and I got a 13 mp I've got the camera to work but no HDR option like on my nexus.

Introduction
Ahoy everyone,
I decided to share my personal custom kernel with all of you. The main reason i started developing this kernel is to balance performance / battery / security and also add features.
I believe i have included most of the usually requested features. If your feature is not included you can ask for it and i will try to include it as long as you don't ask for ETA's. I am a student and i do this on my spare time.
Pie kernel is based on LineageOS 16.0 sources for dipper and is compiled
with SdClang which is Qualcomm's LLVM Compiler for extra performance. [EOL] - Final Version is 3.1
10 kernel is based on LineageOS 17.1 source for dipper and is compiled
with latest sources from LLVM for Clang 11.
So let's jump to the interesting part!

Notes
I bear absolutely no responsibility. If you brick your device. If you are not sure what a kernel is, how to flash it or how to restore your phone in case something goes wrong then do NOT proceed.
Moreover, you should flash this kernel only over the stock kernel that came with your Rom.

Hello Guys,
I am the developer of Sphinx Kernel for Bullhead.
I bought a Mi 8 but it still hasn't arrived , i am expecting it this week or next week.
However, i have managed to compile a Test kernel for Mi 8 (Dipper) from stock sources.
It is very possible that it won't boot. I would like someone to test whether it boots or not. Currently it contains no customizations but once i know it boots i will start adding features.
P.S You take the risk, if you brick your device i bear no responsibility.

mmm Interesting, im wondering whether the "bug" is in the source itself or in the Anykernel2 config. If i had to guess i would say both of them are correct hahaha. i might change a thing or two and if it doesnt work im going to wait for my mi 8 to arrive. Also which rom did you flash it on?

So here is the log i got from recovery.
The only thing i could see that the boot partition is busy
"No such file or directory
mount: mounting /dev/block/sde48 on /system failed: Device or resource busy"
And one thing.... Maybe the Kernel is for MIUI 9 8.0 (don't know if it exists i am on MIUI 10 Global stable xiaomi.eu)
EDIT:
Excuse me here is the real dmesg

Something in the kmsg...
Failed to setup verity for '/vendor'

This was something which also happened when i used my kernel with magisk, something in vendor did make problems

ok so from the log you sent me i see this
Code:
[ 6.517314] init: [libfs_mgr]Failed to get verity metadata '/dev/block/platform/soc/1d84000.ufshc/by-name/vendor': File exists
[ 6.517378] init: Failed to setup verity for '/vendor': File exists
[ 6.517415] init: Failed to mount required partitions early ...
[ 6.517421] init: panic: rebooting to bootloader
[ 6.517433] init: Reboot start, reason: reboot, rebootTarget: bootloader
[ 6.517446] init: android::WriteStringToFile open failed: No such file or directory
[ 6.517460] init: Shutdown timeout: 6000 ms
could you please locate the fstab file of Mi 8 and send it to me? i want to see the boot block name. Also if i had to guess about the kernel not booting id say it has to do with the kernel requiring encryption (?) im not sure ill dig into it
