Aren't hotplugs like MSM hotplug, bricked hotplug etc. meant for qcom quad core/krait CPUs? I'm not sure how they'd behave on big.LITTLE. Even the governors, I'm not sure they are adapted to big.LITTLE.... could you shed some light on it? Also, your commit history looks like a kang job.... you should clear that out.
Just tried it and now my phone is rebooting every 30 seconds, clearly there are some problems.
Even flashing other kernels or the stock one from cm 12.1 isn't working ( I also restored the libs ), I had to flash the rom again with a full wipe, sorry but had no time to make a logcat.
It looks like kanged only because I manually committed changes from Yu Yreka's custom kernel source... Because I'm having slow Internet connection. Credits are given in the thread.. I think hotplug is working...

Tbh cherry-picking commits doesn't need a fast internet connection. (I myself have picked commits on a 512 kbps internet) and credits need to be given in the commit, otherwise it counts as a "kang".
Also, credits for bricked hotplug and alucard hotplug etc. haven't been given even in the thread.
Pardon me.. I will fix it give me some time

Frequently asked questions
Q: Will this conflict with any mod I'm using?
A: As long as it doesn't have any entropy related stuff, its okay. Since the kernel already comes with an inbuilt entropy generator, it will conflict with the ones from mod, causing a poor, stuttered performance!
Q: Deep Sleep isnt working for me, Google Services causing wake-locks, what to do?
A: Go to settings, Privacy, Privacy Guard, All apps, long press Google Services, and deny/disable wake-locks! (Thanks to @Paget96 for the solution)
Q: Which version should I flash?
A: Flash kernel with toolchain that you prefer.
Q: What is the difference between the UBERTC, Linaro, SaberMod and Google toolchain? Which one is the best?
A: It's a good read on the toolchain UBERTC you are wanting to know more about it, this for Linaro, this for SaberMod and this for Google.
Q: What is the difference between the HMP and Miui kernel?
A: Miui folder is for miui roms -> xiaomi.eu, MiuiBR and other derivatives from miui official. HMP folder is for aosp rom and derivatives -> Aosp, Lineage and other derivatives from aosp
Q: Is your kernel secure?
A: You MAY face some issues, but it's safe! My cell phone has not exploded yet.
Q: WiFi doesnt work for me.
A: Reflash ROM and Kernel.
Q: All variants of the Xiaomi Mi5 have the same CPU and GPU clock?
A: Yeeh.
Q: I have problems with the sound control of the speaker and microphone
A: Yeeh, I have too, bugs today, bugs tomorrow, bugs forever.
Q: What application can I use to configure the kernel?
A: Use Spectrum, and if you have enough knowledge of what to modify or do in the application use together Kernel Adiutor.
Q: Can I use the kernel source in my ROM?
A: If you want to use my kernel in your ROM, just put my name in the credit, just like I did.
Q: Does your kernel support writing to the NTFS file system?
A: Yeeh, you can use flash drives and HD with NTFS via OTG.
Q: My cpu clock is locked in 1190Mhz with any governor.
A: Just disable the thermal control in the kernel temperature settings.
Q: I have problems with your kernel.
A: Take a logcat and kmesg, this website and this video should help you
Q: Why does my magisk and root disappear after installing your kernel?
A: The kernel script makes changes that directly interfere with both, reinstall the magisk that it will function normally, follow this installation line always: FloppyKernel -> Magisk -> Reboot system.
Q: Does your kernel support Miui ROM?
A: Yes, support was added in "RC1.1".
Q: What is the "Battery" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on Project Zhana & X.A.N.A was made for trying to be as efficient as possible without compromising the performance. Thanks to the discovery on Voltages used by our SD820 I could make a profile that utilizes more the BIG cluster. My first attempt was to move ALL the load to the BIG cluster, it was against anything that I have learned about little. BIG CPU but I tried, it turned really good at first, low usage was just amazing... But on more usage things didn't go that good. So what I did it was to give a twist to things, but not such twist. It kind of works like Nameless and Shotgun, Mostafa Wael and I worked the same idea. #LITTLE cluster will be running on low-mid frequencies but delivers full performance when is needed. # BIG Cluster will help LITTLE ease Load, but in a great way than before. Things can be done faster and more efficient giving us profit in form of battery. It should run smooth on all scenarios, but you guys tell me. You can easily get around 7~9 hours SOT for 24 hours even more If you don't play game. This will, of course, may vary, but it will definitely be better.
Q: What is the "Balanced" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on GhostPepper was made to uses a quantized, frequency-aligned parametric curve to influence low core clock rates while providing extremely smooth transitions from each clock rate and exceptional battery life. Really well-defined clock speed escalation for a good battery and performance.
Q: What is the "Performance" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on FusionP this profile brings a more "agressive" way to scale frequencies. It will scale frequencies sooner(regarding load values from cpu) and will use more the big cluster to provide more performance doing the tasks on hands. Battery should not take a big hit but using heavy demanding tasks you can expect a higher drain.
Q: What is the "Gaming" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on Burnout PR5, this profile's main goal is to provide absolute maximum performance when needed, but lies low quite well. You see, some times I see the CPU hitting some of the high freqs of 1190 while making something as simple as watching YouTube or playing some spotify tracks needlessly, and sometimes I feel it is a bit slower than it should be in things like brute multitasking. Most profiles do aim at bringing a mid-ground to rest on. But with the sensible words of one of my favourite idols Jeremy Clarkson, he says 'Power solves everything' and right he is. By eliminating the mid freqs of the Little cluster and efficiently using some specific frequency steps, you get some power savings by staying on lower freqs as much as possible, and even on brutal tasks you get the job done faster as well, since the CPU will give you all the power to finish the job as fast as it can, and hit back to idle faster.
Q: I want more information about your spectrum profiles.
A: Read this thread.
Q: I want more information about governors, I/O Scheduler, Hotplug, TCP Algorithms and other things.
A: Read this thread.

Im following you from your L7 development times. And i have l7 and mi5. Now im using jdc oreo but i will install LOS for try your work. I hope you will continue your work for oreo.
Wich is better, Linaro Or UBERTC?
What's the difference between linaro and ubertc?
hi.. I'm was installed Linero version for my Mi5pro. i have questions.
- why my model phone goes to Samsung Galaxy Note 7.
- my magisk root gone, after intalled these kernel version.
Thanks.

First question: idk, my model phone is normal, Mi5, try install boot.img and after kernel, are you using any modifications ?
Second question: normal, after install kernel magisk gone, you have to install again, because in the installation it is lost
Good to see new kernel ?? will flash and try
miui support ?
Linaro or UBERTC?
I use the version with Linaro and I am very satisfied, I recommend that you test both versions and see which one is best for you

Here
i'm use u'r kernel since this thread open.
I use ubertc version, it's very smooth.. but sometimes my device freeze, but no problem at all coz the true culprit is magisk magic charging module..
but just now im trying linaro build.. i hope no problem like ubertc build..
Im suggesting fast charging module bro like dragonxia 3.8 OC..
Don't work with Miui rom ?

Frequently asked questions
Q: Will this conflict with any mod I'm using?
A: As long as it doesn't have any entropy related stuff, its okay. Since the kernel already comes with an inbuilt entropy generator, it will conflict with the ones from mod, causing a poor, stuttered performance!
Q: Deep Sleep isnt working for me, Google Services causing wake-locks, what to do?
A: Go to settings, Privacy, Privacy Guard, All apps, long press Google Services, and deny/disable wake-locks! (Thanks to @Paget96 for the solution)
Q: Which version should I flash?
A: Flash kernel with toolchain that you prefer.
Q: What is the difference between the UBERTC, Linaro, SaberMod and Google toolchain? Which one is the best?
A: It's a good read on the toolchain UBERTC you are wanting to know more about it, this for Linaro, this for SaberMod and this for Google.
Q: What is the difference between the HMP and Miui kernel?
A: Miui folder is for miui roms -> xiaomi.eu, MiuiBR and other derivatives from miui official. HMP folder is for aosp rom and derivatives -> Aosp, Lineage and other derivatives from aosp
Q: Is your kernel secure?
A: You MAY face some issues, but it's safe! My cell phone has not exploded yet.
Q: WiFi doesnt work for me.
A: Reflash ROM and Kernel.
Q: What application can I use to configure the kernel?
A: Use Spectrum, and if you have enough knowledge of what to modify or do in the application use together Kernel Adiutor.
Q: Can I use the kernel source in my ROM?
A: If you want to use my kernel in your ROM, just put my name in the credit, just like I did.
Q: Does your kernel support writing to the NTFS file system?
A: Yeeh, you can use flash drives and HD with NTFS via OTG.
Q: My cpu clock is locked with any governor.
A: Just disable the thermal control in the kernel temperature settings.
Q: I have problems with your kernel.
A: Take a logcat and kmesg, this website and this video should help you
Q: Why does my magisk and root disappear after installing your kernel?
A: The kernel script makes changes that directly interfere with both, reinstall the magisk that it will function normally, follow this installation line always: FloppyKernel -> Magisk -> Reboot system.
Q: Does your kernel support Miui ROM?
A: Yes, support was added in "RC1.2".
Q: Why did your kernel go straight to "RC1.2"?
A: Because it is based on the FloppyKernel for MI5, which is already in RC1.2.
Q: What is the "Battery" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on Project Zhana & X.A.N.A was made for trying to be as efficient as possible without compromising the performance. Thanks to the discovery on Voltages used by our SD820 I could make a profile that utilizes more the BIG cluster. My first attempt was to move ALL the load to the BIG cluster, it was against anything that I have learned about little. BIG CPU but I tried, it turned really good at first, low usage was just amazing... But on more usage things didn't go that good. So what I did it was to give a twist to things, but not such twist. It kind of works like Nameless and Shotgun, Mostafa Wael and I worked the same idea. #LITTLE cluster will be running on low-mid frequencies but delivers full performance when is needed. # BIG Cluster will help LITTLE ease Load, but in a great way than before. Things can be done faster and more efficient giving us profit in form of battery. It should run smooth on all scenarios, but you guys tell me. You can easily get around 7~9 hours SOT for 24 hours even more If you don't play game. This will, of course, may vary, but it will definitely be better.
Q: What is the "Balanced" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on GhostPepper was made to uses a quantized, frequency-aligned parametric curve to influence low core clock rates while providing extremely smooth transitions from each clock rate and exceptional battery life. Really well-defined clock speed escalation for a good battery and performance.
Q: What is the "Performance" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on FusionP this profile brings a more "agressive" way to scale frequencies. It will scale frequencies sooner(regarding load values from cpu) and will use more the big cluster to provide more performance doing the tasks on hands. Battery should not take a big hit but using heavy demanding tasks you can expect a higher drain.
Q: What is the "Gaming" profile in the spectrum?
A: Based on Burnout PR5, this profile's main goal is to provide absolute maximum performance when needed, but lies low quite well. You see, some times I see the CPU hitting some of the high freqs of 1190 while making something as simple as watching YouTube or playing some spotify tracks needlessly, and sometimes I feel it is a bit slower than it should be in things like brute multitasking. Most profiles do aim at bringing a mid-ground to rest on. But with the sensible words of one of my favourite idols Jeremy Clarkson, he says 'Power solves everything' and right he is. By eliminating the mid freqs of the Little cluster and efficiently using some specific frequency steps, you get some power savings by staying on lower freqs as much as possible, and even on brutal tasks you get the job done faster as well, since the CPU will give you all the power to finish the job as fast as it can, and hit back to idle faster.
Q: I want more information about your spectrum profiles.
A: Read this thread.
Q: I want more information about governors, I/O Scheduler, Hotplug, TCP Algorithms and other things.
A: Read this thread.
Hi! I tried the new version of the kernel on mi-globe 7.12.21 rom with twrp 3.2.1 .
I think i am doing something wrong as it does not boot, even if i install the latest magisk v15.
It gets to the boot image and then it shuts down the phone.
Then i reinstall mi-globe rom that comes with the stock kernel and it is fine.

Small notes
The kernel is tested on C6902/C6903/C6906 model. Not sure about other Z1 variants (don't confuse with Z1c). Testers are welcome
As written in the thread name, make sure you're on ROMs mentioned in the thread name. Please report if other ROMs work with this kernel
The kernel is based on @SuperLamic's msm8974 kernel source, and other features were cherry-picked from other sources as well. Original credits goes to them
For dt2w, tap 2 fingers at once on your touchscreen (as mentioned in Modified-kernel thread)
Reserved for future usage
Twrp included ?
Any plans for oreo version?
Is it possible to disable dt2w?
I remember way back it was usually done by modifying a file like
echo "1" > /sys/android_touch/ *some dt2w file*

Bootloops on RR Nougat 7.1.2 (yeah yeah yeah, read the disclaimer on support for other ROMS, just curious to test this kernel). Strange but offline charging works as expected and even booting into TWRP works. But while in TWRP I notice the device temperature begins to rise rapidly, causing it to reboot,,,,,hope this works in future releases. Device: C6902
RZ v1.5 is up! Changes
Implemented power efficient workqueues (thanks to franciscofranco)
Disabled DT2W by default
Enabled multi-core power saving by default
Reverted GPU OC, obviously because it doesn't do anything

Disabled battery-hogging wakelocks (thanks to franciscofranco)
Enabled intelli_plug and intellithermal by default (you'll need to disable mpdecision from Kernel Adiutor so intelli_plug will work properly)
RZ v1.5 is available on my Drive folder. Please checkout OP for download link!
Cheers,
Confirmed working with latest Carbon N ?

Good work on my c6903 LOS 14.1 SuperLamic.
Nice work. It's working fine on my C6906 running LOS 14.1 from SuperLamic with Magisk installed and working fine too. My phone was charging too slow but now it's fixed.

I'm using the very first version of AnyKernel with very minimal patching commands
Somehow it's pretty hard for me to adapt to a newer AK version so I decided to write my own noob-friendly ramdisk patching script instead (compatible with all Z1 AOSP boot.img)
My kernel boots currently on LOS N and Carbon N. For RR, idk why it bootloops. Probably need some other kernel commits maybe?
Sent from my Xperia Z1 using XDA Labs
Runs nice..but I needed to flash the stock kernel from superlamic lineage os and then flash this kernel because the phone went in to a bootloop on the sony logo.
Just a reminder to what to do when your next update is coming
edit: no its magisk thats acting up.. wont't boot when installing this after flashing the kernel
Phone is booting with magisk on stock kernel so something is not right.
I don't have more time atm for this so im gonna let it be
Polonium Kernel is made with a view that it will give a more stable experience to users of j7-16 and It is to make a user more comfortable with his own device!
This kernel has undergone several days of test before releasing in the stable branch.
This kernel works with ALL ROMS. That being said all TouchWiz-N, Aosp oreo and nougat are supported

Great work bro. Finally custom kernel for AOSP based ROMs. ?
Good Job
Finally An Custom Kernel For J7 2016:fingers-crossed:
Will it work on the samsung stock ??
hi what improvements does the rom make that kernel? improves whatsapp's audio? can you play from the sd card with folder mount as 7.1.2 aosp? Is the problem of counting with parallel space fixed? From already thank you very much
Can you overclock it a little bit like in Oxygen Kernel? It'll be really helpful in gaming.

Very nice work and great effort for our j7 6 device.
install the kernel in the slimrom and I get out every time the systemui poster stopped working and the screen is all black. any solution?
Please add spectrum support, kernel manager
