DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR PHONE BRICKS! YOU ARE FLASHING THIS KERNEL AND ITS YOUR CHOICE TO DO IT OR NOT TO DO IT AND YOU'RE THE ONE DOING IT. I JUST WANT TO HELP OTHERS OUT.
REQUIREMENTS: UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER AND AOSP BASED ROM, IT MAY WORK PERFECTLY FINE ON MIUI AS WELL BUT I DO NOT GIVE SUPPORT FOR IT, SORRY.
Features:
- Based on IMMENSITY KERNEL;
- Compiled with Zyc Clang 14.0.6 with LTO + O3 + Cortex optimizations;
- LTO patches from linux mainline kernel;
- Only 0.02-0.07 jitter in uibench.
- Sultan's Devfreq Boost;
- Sultan's IRQ Affine API;
- Sultan's Simple LMK;
- Modified CpuSets;
- Latest caf tag and linux upstream merged;
- RCU backported from 5.10 caf kernel;
- Kernel locking backported from 5.10 caf kernel;
- Kernel/power backported from 5.4 caf kernel;
- Sleep states from soc/qcom backported from 5.4 caf kernel;
- Binder backported from 5.10 caf kernel;
- KGSL improvements;
- Cache improvements;
- PmQoS improvements;
- Disabled walt;
- Scheduler Improvements;
- Updated Energy Model from freqbench result;
- Latest Srandom by josenk;
- Sultan's pidmap optimisation & pidmap header shrink optimization SWITCH which massively improve performance in games made in Unity Engine (such as GENSHIN IMPACT), thanks to @lybxlpsv. How this works? You have to use lyb kernel manager from playstore, open it, allow it root, go to profiles and create a profile, select the profile and enable sultan's optimisations (PID HEADER SHRINK OPTIMISATION & PID MAP OPTIMISATION AND THEN APPLY SETTINGS FOR THIS PROFILE), and press on the square to get the app list you can apply the profile. Please do not select other games than UNITY ENGINE based games, because you will get banned in games with anti-cheat such as pubg & codm, if you don't enable it on those or globally you won't get banned and everything will be fine, its especially made for unity games.
- Many other improvements, you can check my github.

- Improved UFS speeds;
- Zsmalloc optimisations;
- Lowered Display's Jitter to match with the jitter results with N0kernel, this drastically improves response time and percived smoothness.
- Fixed Reddit/other apps small images;

Don't mind it, its because android is set to give that on boot if you disable some configs in kernel. Nothing to worry about, eventually ill fix that popup by faking using stock defconfig for the sake of people not getting worried.

I am new here and idk any technical terms, while i was surfing and comparing different kernels for my alioth by personally installing each one of them, i wanted to say this is one of the best kernel for alioth, but I just encountered a problem that whenever I watch YouTube or watch Instagram stories, my device lags and buffer....
This didn't happen in any of the other kernels, i installed this kernel thrice, but this problem appeared everytime...

Now it works fine, I reflashed my arrow os rom...
I am new to this, so I had a doubt, idk even if this question is valid or not but...
when will you update the kernel linux version like the ODK ia doing..?

Yeah i will, currently im in university and i don't have too much free time that i want to spend it for it but for sure when i release an update it will have last version of CAF tag ( what qcom provides) and upstreaming the kernel to last linux revision.
Bro,
This kernel has too much idle battery drain...
today I missed my morning alarm..
yesterday my battery was 80 % charged with no background apps running.
And midnight while I was asleep, it got discharged...

I was also shocked...
Sir does this kernel boots on a12. If so can u tell me which branch of the source works for a 12??

Please bring the pid map read tool to your kernel please, your kernel is by far what gave me the most performance on genshin Impact, I have a friend who can run Genshin Impact at almost 60 fps on Poco X3 PRO, recording the game, thanks to this function is simply amazing

NXTweaks FAQ:
What is NXTweaks?
NXTweaks is a core app for this kernel which gives many controls at your finger tips.
These controls will help you to easily customize interfaces developed in this kernel.
So as you won't need to use Terminal Emulator and echo commands!
Try it once, and you will love it.
Why not TricksterMod or other kernel apps?
I would recommend NXTweaks since there are many interfaces like hotplug control, limiter driver, etc
will only available in NXTweaks. Also, NXTweaks classify different controls in different tabs making easy
for you. If you still don't like NXTweaks, leave it alone as it is.
NXTweaks vs STweaks
NXTweaks app is same as STweaks app in Play Store, however NXTweaks is updated one to fix crashes and comparatively better UI.
How can I install NXTweaks?
It gets auto-installed once this kernel boots. If not, read below.
NXTweaks not getting auto-installed / NXTweaks not showing up in App Drawer
This issue can be faced by users with encryption where data partition is not easily available to inject script.
You can install manually from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53849779&postcount=2808
NXTweaks app showing "Kernel Not Supported"
This issue can be faced by users with ROMs other than CM11 due to missing bash binary.
You need to flash fix from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54026032&postcount=2921

Oh thanks, took me 4 hours to make fist standalone linaro-based kernel for Google device. The source code is very clean and neatly maintained by Google unlike Samsung folks. And took me another 4 hours to upgrade from 3.4.0 to 3.4.30... more to go.
I am on DroidKang ROM currently (love the features of it) However, felt experience can be maximized with custom kernel and so starts Chaos kernel project.
I am also on latest droidkang ROM actually with elementalx kernel.
Feature request for your Kernel: s2w and dt2w like in bricked kernel and elementalx kernel
Thank you.

Yep. They are in my todo list along with an app to control same. Should be covered within this week.
Current progress: Patched successfully upto 3.4.50. We need to go upto 3.4.71.
Google devs are making these patches difficult since provided source code has few code updated well and left behind major chunk of code as of 3.4.0.
So, it take times to go through code and update.

nice work :thumbup:
imo -O3 + christoper toolchain should make a better optimizing like on mackay
Just installed.
Seems good.
The few mb less seems to solve front camera problems (no freeze on video recording or screenshot).
Will see for stability with the use.
I just miss one thing: Fast charge.

My feedback after 1 day use:
I have some freeze issues for many seconds with some apps (games/browser), i didn't face it with other kernels, sounds like memory issues..

I know this problem .
Do not tick ksm and the other thing. Maybe it solves the problem.

If the problem still exist pls test this version.
The problem could be this comment : backport SLUB from Linux 3.3 (thanks to faux123)

How much ram with this kernel? does it affect front camera?
LiveOC on Semaphore is quire stable, when you say it's unstable this is caused by user.

415 mb, no issues on front camera.
I tried it, but it's unstable on my phone, got many freezes (tried to uncheck memory options but i still have freezes).

Great, 415MB of ram without any issues, this is a winner.
Please add overclocking to 1100 which is quite stable on most devices.

LZ4 compression algorithm
LZ4 is a lossless data compression algorithm that is focused on compression and decompression speed.
The algorithm gives a slightly worse compression ratio than algorithms like gzip. However, compression speeds are several times faster than gzip while decompression speeds can be significantly faster than LZO.
The LZ4 algorithm represents the data as a series of sequences. Each sequence begins with a one byte token that is broken into two 4 bit fields. The first field represents the number of literal bytes that are to be copied to the output. The second field represents the number of bytes to copy from the already decoded output buffer (with 0 representing the minimum match length of 4 bytes). A value of 15 in either of the bitfields indicates that the length is larger and there is an extra byte of data that is to be added to the length. A value of 255 in these extra bytes indicates that yet another byte to be added. Hence arbitrary lengths are represented by a series of extra bytes containing the value 255. The string of literals comes after the token and any extra bytes needed to indicate string length. This is followed by an offset that indicates how far back in the output buffer to begin copying. The extra bytes (if any) of the match-length come at the end of the sequence.
Compression can be carried out in a stream or in blocks. Higher compression ratios can be achieved by investing more effort in finding the best matches. This results in both a smaller file and a faster decompression.

Aukhan recommended settings
F.A.Q
Can I flash this kernel on Note 4 SM-N910C or other variant?
No, you can not. This kernel is only for SM-N910F, SM-N910G, SM-N910P and SM-N910V.
When I switch to Ondemand governor I noticed that cpu-boost is disabled.
Exactly, Ondemand and cpu-boost doesn't work well together. When you switch to Ondemand governor cpu-boost will be disabled automatically. Don't re-enable cpu-boost if you are using Ondemand governor. (Synapse>CPU DRIVERS)
Which app can control this kernel?
By default, the kernel is controlled by Synapse, but you can use the app that you like (Trickster Mod, Kernel Tweaker, etc.).
I flashed the kernel and Synapse says: "No support UCI detected".
Reflash the kernel, since it was a bad installation and Synapse does not detect the scripts.
After flashing the kernel lost root what to do?
In case you loose root just flash SuperSU
Any recommended settings to follow using Synapse?
At the beginning of the second post.
After flash the kernel some apks give me FC.
Go to Google Play Store and reinstall those apks.
From where can I remove int.d script?
Go to /system/etc/init.d using any root based file manager and delete.
Note: There is an important one related to superSU and if you remove it by mistake you're gonna have trouble with root permissions.
My device doesn't show any reaction to undervolting (battery life is same as before) or gets unstable even on light undervolting?
Use DVFS disabler Module(standalone) (dynamic voltage and frequency scaling), this feature was kept in touchwiz for benchmark boosting purposes and will conflict with any undervolting and custom governors because it scales the voltages and frequency on regular intervals and is framework integrated, so gets a higher priority than kernel based voltage and scaling controls.
For people who don't know what is DVFS please refer Wikipedia.
Min/Max frequency don't stick?
If your frequency settings don’t stick, it's because on certain Qualcomm devices, there are certain system services (thermald/mpdecision/project butter) or kernel service that rewrite frequency settings based on current thermal status and/or touch input.
I made a logcat but my file is empty. How I can "fix" it?
By default Android logger is disable. Go to Synapse > MISCELLANEOUS and enable Logger Mode.
What is it PowerSuspend?
This new powersuspend PM kernel driver is a replacement for it and existing early_suspend drivers. It should give better battery life.
What is it Intelli-Plug?
Intelliplug is a replacement for mp decision. Intelli-Plug is Faux123 open source solution to Qualcomm's closed source mpdecision. Intelli-Plug is disable by default. It conflicts with mpdecsion, so is HIGHLY recommend turning off mpdecision when using intelli-plug! (If you use Synapse the change is automatic. If you enable Intelli-plug mpdecision will turn off).
What is it Intelli-Thermal?
an intelligent MSM thermal throttling kernel driver designed to replace the
closed sourced thermald(aemon) from Qualcomm.
What is it Frandom?
Frandom is a kernel random number generator, which is 10-50 times faster than what you get from /dev/urandom. And it uses very little (/dev/frandom) or none (/dev/erandom) of the kernel's entropy pool, so it is very useful for applications that require a handy source for lots of random data.
What is it CRC?
CRC is a mechanism aiming to prevent data corruption when is enabled (reduce the performance around 30%). So if you disable it improve the performance but your data can be corrupted. Use it at your risk.
/sys/module/mmc_core/parameters/crc
Do you have issues in Synapse?
Go to the Play store and install busybox on rails.
Ve a la play store e instala busybox on rails, eso arreglará cualquier fallo en Synapse.
Shealt doesn't work (FC's)
Clear data of Shealt
How to use NTFS OTG?
Install USB OTG Helper . Connect your ntfs otg then open USB OTG Helper apk click on "mount". That's it. Use your favorite xplorer to open the OTG.
Know/Reported/Fixed issues
Know issues
1. Synapse doesn't show CPU governor tunables.
I'm trying to fix it. FIXED
2. Sometimes Synapse (and others kernel control apks) show that the min frequency is 1190MHz (or other frequency).
Just cancel it. FIXED
3. Ondemand doesn't work well. FIXED
Thanks for the report @Vangelis13
4. The OTG doesn't work in r8. FIXED
First!
Thanks man i try it now.
Looks good, lots of stuff to play with in synapse. Thanks.
The kernel is real fast. Atm im playing the settings. Only 1 thing what i cant get work is sweep2wake i dont know im wrong or it dont work atm.
Anyway thank you for this kernel

Nice kernel! Ondemand freezes & reboots under quite small load, has anyone seen the same? I can probably reproduce & send a last_kmsg if the dev needs it.
Here is a few recommended settings as a lot of members would ask share you setting for the extended battery life.
So here are few basic setting epically for them.

Latest Download Link| | for Lineage Based Oreo ROMs | || | for Other Oreo ROMs | |
Bluebolt Kernel Tweaking App - One Dot One HotFix[/size]
Beta : They are compiled with new commits and some bugs might be there. If the things work the way they are supposed to be, those commits will make to the RC
RC : Release Candidate, it is supposed to be stable
Flashing and tweaking
Installation / Flashing - Download the zip, beta or RC which ever you want to, now boot into recovery and flash from there and then boot into system Voila the kernel is flashed
(Optional) - Clear cache and Dalvik
To tweak use Kernel Adiutor Mod or EXKM.
Spectrum - I've made 4 predefined settings in kernel (Battery, Balanced, Performance, Gaming) which can be switched through this app as per your need, default is balanced. Download Link is in the change-log post.

is it undervolted? little bit undervolting on lowest frequency can improve battery life ?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It is in a way.
As its min frequency is 302MHz and it is volted at 780mAh
Before it was 384MHz at 855mAh
you can undervolt yourself by changing it in KA app
KA -> CPU Voltage
change it for the frequency you want
Beware that. After changing the default rates in CPU voltage I wont be responsible.

I'd suggest you use phonograph or play music, and test it with them, none of my testers have reported this issue!!
I am personally using phonograph and the playback it smooth and clear!
And if you get equalizer or some music mod app that comes with your ROM like in DU, RR and AEX then also put them in whitelist for battery optimisation.

Had the similar issue n now it solved!! i'm on Unofficial RR+Viper4Arise+Play Music. Songs play just fine:good:
Also charging speed increased far better than stock kernel.:highfive:
Minor thing is, i feel bit laggy while using Google now, FB & Insta. Is there anyway to speed it up a little?? what governor do you suggest?? let me know buddy?!!

Had the similar issue n now it solved!! i'm on Unofficial RR+Viper4Arise+Play Music. Songs play just fine:good:
Also charging speed increased far better than stock kernel.:highfive:
Minor thing is, i feel bit laggy while using Google now, FB & Insta. Is there anyway to speed it up a little?? what governor do you suggest?? let me know buddy?!!
Thanks @ShreyanshLodha for such an effort maann! appreciate it very much.

If you feel that there's lag then,
make sure you are using any one hotplug (dont disable it and you cant use multiple)
And also you can increase min freq of the big core to 38X MHz
There are many ways, I'd suggest that you google it or read this thread.
And adjust make adjustments accordingly.

This kernel is los based !They only way for it to work is the kernel to be based on aosp so those gestures will not work on any aosp-caf roms!

No Gravity Kernel 2.0 + 4.0 App Trailer
Why is it called NoGravity kernel?
Hey, NoGravity Kernel dev coming from the Pocophone F1. Goal of this kernel is to provide of course solid performance when needed while keeping a solid battery life throughout the day, but main NGK objective is to make every device #SmoothAF.
The Kernel will boot using stock (Mi 8) GPU frequencies that correspond to the Balance Profile. Overclocked frequencies can be selected in my app. Other profiles for battery, performance and gaming can also be switched to in my app.
To tweak the kernel easily, here's my No Gravity app! featuring custom profiles (Battery, Balanced, Performance and Gaming). My app offers some features that usually cant be found in other kernel tweaking apps. You can find them lower in the thread.)

This kernel should work on any ROM/Ports! Since I love OnePlus and I'm myself a OnePlus 2 user, I will do my best to fully support OOS ports.
Reported to work on: OnePlus 6 Holi Edition, OnePlus 7 OB8 & OB8 Quince, Quarantine Edition. OxygenOS devs do not support custom kernels so if you face any issues with NGK don't post in their groups, post here instead.
-I recommend before coming to conclusion, give it at least 2 complete charge cycles and then raise any issue.
- I recommend to use my app, franco app or EX Kernel Manager if you need to tweak the kernel further
-CPUs since Snapdragon 845 can't be overclocked from kernel this is why it is removed
-Flash No_Gravity_Kernel-vX.X.zip file in TWRP (Latest TWRP Recovery Recommanded)
-(Optional) - Clear cache and Dalvik => if you do so, Use App Optimization button in NGK App.

NGK Thermal Locking Mecanism prevents ROMs from overriding a thermal selection (Mainly MIUI) (when NGK Thermals are ON only, when they're OFF, ROM will have it's default behavior)
1.3.1 Build:
Kernel 1.3.1:
Rebased Techpack audio driver entirely to fix sound on some ROMs
1.3 Build: Welcome to Mi 8!
NoGravity Kernel App v3.3:

Notes:
Max GPU frequency of 835MHz is only reachable manually as I don't consider it fully stable. On the other side, 820MHz Overclock is stable and is used in my profiles.
I wanted to use relatively longer dynamic schedtune boost duration compared to input boosts so made them separate in terms of length.
I would recommend turning off No Gravity app toast notifications from Magisk Manager app.

Updated AnyKernel3 changes (No Need to flash magisk after updating!)
Always upstreamed to latest! (4.9.210)
And many more under the hood changes...
Notes:
Thermal Suspend API : This is a small API I’ve written in the kernel directly (to make sure no background services are running for it) that unsets NGK thermals when screen turns off and enables them back when screen is turned back on. (This fixes some issues on some specific ROMs where screen wouldn’t turn on or phone would random reboot while device sleeps or is charging)
There is now a camera fix version to fix camera on ROMs with Q-Blobs like MIUI Q, so if your camera isn't working flash this one.
Kernel 1.1 Pie Edition:
NoGravity Kernel v1.1 now working on Pie ROMs
Using v1.0 Base
Notes:
This kernel uses v1.0 base so will work on both Android Pie and Q ROMs/Ports/MIUI
From now on releases will be separate in 2 builds: [9] and [10]. People on Android 10 should use [10] builds since it is rebased to Full Q CAF sources even tho [9] build would still work.

Westwood(Default) & BBR TCP Algorithms added
Using 2048kb read ahead
Fixed ZEN I/O Scheduler initialisation
Picked port of RCU's taken from 4.14
Updated SDFAT to EXFAT
Removed a CPU boosting driver that could conflict with another
Battery oriented tweaks
Tried to fix random reboots and other issues some people were getting
Always upstreamed to latest! (4.9.206)
And many more under the hood changes...
Notes:
Profiles also have a QSTile for fast switching
If you didn’t already know it was only placebo/performance wouldn’t change, but don’t worry there are other ways to make performance better
If you want charging throttling, you can set it back on here by setting the value to N instead of Y: sys/modules//sys/module/smb_lib/parameters/skip_thermal
MIUI ROM/Port variants may have some issues but I didn't have much testers on those so please send logs if you have issues

Useful Stuffs
Useful stuffs
Clean flashing a kernel:
1. Boot into recovery
2. Wipe dalvik/art cache, cache, system and vendor(if recovery have this option)
3. Reboot into recovery (only needed on some recoveries)
4. Flash latest ROM zip
(Optional) Flash other zips like GApps, DFE, etc depending on ROM and your preference
5. Flash latest Magisk zip
6. Reboot into system (yes boot with stock kernel first)
7. Reboot into recovery
8. Flash latest NGK Kernel zip
9. Reboot and enjoy
Not to be confused with a ROM clean flash!
Do not wipe data or internal storage!
Taking logs
Screen Freezes:
-Connect phone to PC
-Run following commands in terminal:
[*]adb shell
[*]dmesg
Random Reboots:
-When the random reboot occurs press the TWRP button combo to got straight into TWRP
-Send the pstore folder as a .zip file located in /sys/fs/
Any runtime kernel/app related crashes that doesnt make the device reboot or freeze:
-Use Matlog app on play store
-Start recording before the issue
-Stop recording after the issue
-Send the .zip file created
Kernel + App Update
Good news !
NGK 1.3 and 3.3 app are up with some good additions! Mi 8 is now supported. Make sure you read the changelog...
Thanks to everyone who donated until now, that's really appreciated. I don't want to force anyone to do so, but we are almost there as you can see here: Crowdfunding
thanks again
Back to work
camera disconnected on ion Os 10.0
thanks for ur great job.

Thanks glad you like it ?
Looking forward to testing this bad boy
there is no sound on last miroom beta rom with this kernel
Thanks for this man, the only thing I'm jealous of the poco community is the amount of roms and kernels they get haha.
I'll try this when I get home!
Me too, no sound on Revolution rom 20.1.31

There are P blobs and Q blobs versions, try both, one should work. (this is not for Android P and Android Q versions, it's for blobs, blobs are a different thing, google if you want to get technical).
If not working with any version then it's indeed a bug.
Sorry but I don't understand it. Can you give more detailed instructions?
Where I can find P blobs and Q blobs versions?

Here.
Read the first posts more thoroughly next time before flashing stuff.
Another One...Thanks to our humble and awesome DEV!!!!
Boots and seems to work, camera does too on latest los 17 build.
Unfortunately there's no audio at all.
Let me know if I can provide logs, help, or test.
Thanks!
I try P blobs and Q blobs versions. But it still has no sound
Okay, so a looooot of people asked for a telegram group..
Here it is:

Notes:
-I wont be posting test builds there
-This is for discussion related to my projects
-I won't be able to handle the spam and don't tag me for nothing, I have a life too so I won't be reading everything. I will read everything that is here on XDA only. If you tag me there I will most probably read it but dont expect me to be super active there.
See yall there
Noted for sound, I will have a look. Yall can try sending logs
