Great job! Seems good so far
Added a kernel space blocker to don't allow execution of magisk root optimizers such as LawRun
What does that mean you can't root with magisk? That's ironic because yesterday I was talking to someone who said the makers of hentai OS don't like root or twrp.
To that I say you guys do understand most of us would rather be rooted stock than on some nonstock rom without root?
It's actually sad when open source coders make a rom and want to say you can't root because it messes it up and we can't fix it so no root. That is what we do at XDA.

Those are not "optimizers" they are doing worse for your device. Then you are the one that complains "x kernel its bad" just because you used one of those "optimizers" that made it bad. However no one forces you to flash anything .

I don't need to flash custom kernels it's built with stock source code, so it's stock kernel with a gesture or something added but generally speaking they don't perform better or have better battery life. They certainly don't do both battery and performance better than the guys that wrote the stock kernel source could do.
You guys get carried away on Xda. We appreciate anything to contribute but most developers don't do it for free they make money with donations I've seen them get thousands of dollars. That is their hope to it's only I do it for me and no one else when things don't work right.
If someone can produce a kernel that can beat a benchmark score of 713000 on AnTuTu I will be more than happy to try it.

If you think antutu benchmark matters or any other score in any benchmark it means you don't really know much. The only benchmark to ever matter is UIBENCH jitter test. Where's stock kernel its garbage at as well as any other stock kernel by any manufacture not just xiaomi. The smoothness its not even comparable. Benchmark scores do not matter at all your phone can perform much better including gaming while having a lower score in benchmarks.

I understand that Benchmarks aren't everything but it does give us a guide to go by. For example I have a S10 lite ultra and it has SD 855 gets about 489k and the Poco f3 got 713k and it does work a slight bit faster side by side opening apps and doing stuff. It's only on XDA that you hear people talking about it means nothing.
Let's not get carried away if people on Xda could build a better kernel than xiaomi or Samsung or whoever they would have to know how to write code and they don't. Xiaomi isn't waiting for their kernel source it's the other way around. You can't use Xiaomis kernel source code and than claim you have made it better performance and battery. Because I've been flashing roms and kernels now on like 20 different devices for 4 years and it never makes a big difference. The best thing a developer can do is make permissive for Samsung kernel. That truly adds something that isn't there already.
No the truth is if there are ways to say something is better or not on Android phones that doesn't show favorable results to whatever someone has built than it's looked at like crap because we don't like the results. You guys try to speak down to people like you don't know crap about anything if you think that matters. Really, I see Amd, Samsung, Google, Intel, pretty much everyone using benchmarks to show their products being 30 percent better. They probably don't know real development.
I'll tell you what what does that jitter test for and you give me your best custom kernel to show it? I'm on EU rom.
It's like best rom? Everyone is different and it depends. No everyone wants the same thing.
Stability, performance, battery there's really nothing different. The only thing that is different is if someone wants pixel rom to mimic pixel devices or OnePlus rom or Samsung one ui rom. Don't get me wrong I enjoy tweaking my devices but is anyone with A/B slots and super partition able to restore device with twrp?
Just today I seen casnova post a screenshot of Geekbench which is weird because he probably didn't realize it doesn't matter Benchmarks. But his was 900s single core and 3300 multiple core so I quickly ran Geekbench to and I scored almost the exact same thing.
Here's why I say this stuff because the so call developers on XDA have took all the fun out of it. Your not developers you take other people's work and slap your name on it while changing as little as 1 thing or sometimes nothing. Your compliers or something like that not developers. You guys belittle noobs because xda allows people that complie code to talk down to newbies who want to ask questions but the truth is that actually makes them look bad because they don't know the answer most of the time. ETAs aren't allowed because developers don't actually know if they can fix anything or if they can build again.
All of the rules are stupid and make no sense unless you make it so people have to act like developers aka compliers are someone special. Who's so smart and just does things to be nice and the donation link.
It's to the point where I just want to see all the new members stop kissing ass and tell the developers your not a developer unless you have a degree or work for a software company but if you did you wouldn't be on Xda.
The xda developers have gone to far, you guys have gotten big heads puffed up chest and think your hot stuff. It's ruined xda completely and it's not a helpful website anymore it's thousands of threads of it's already been answered search the post, nice rom dev even before they flash it. Now if you ask about a feature the doesn't work they just blow you off. That means threads are pointless for information on the software.
Guys, would it work on ArrowOS 12? Can it be flashed via sideload?

First of all you have literally no clue on how a kernel works and what those modules do. There is no such thing as "building a better kernel than xiaomi, samsung, etc", no one would be ever able to make a kernel from scratch. The kernel itself firstly comes from Linux where's for our case on snapdragon Qualcomm modifies it and releases sources for each SOC then it goes to the specific manufacture that wants to create their phone and has to add the necessary code in order for their phone to work with the components they chose and usually they try to "tweak" the kernel which is literally doing worse 90% of the time. Qualcomm has a lot of stupid implementations baked into the kernel such as pl, hispeed, WALT, which are the reason the jitter its horrible with stock kernel, instead following mainline which is the best thing to be done. Benchmarks are useless because they are made to run on based on what usually the phones ship with, they are not designed to measure properly the performance of a phone therefore i have a lower score with my kernel but surprisngly jitter its 10 times better on "my' kernel, as well as normal usage and gaming too. I don't care what other devs posted about benchmakrs, i dont think my name is "casnova" or whatever, i dont talk for them i'm letting you know how it work. Also regarding "Your not developers you take other people's work and slap your name on it while changing as little as 1 thing or sometimes nothing", why dont you check github? why do you even talk without knowing what its really happening? its funny how people complain about dumb stuff, as i explained you that blocker its meant for people like you to not use x,y,z modules then to complain that the kernel is bad just because you used some random "tweaking" module and it underperforms. I don't think anyone forces you to donate, as well as barely there are any people donating, also i dont see where i ever asked on my kernel donations or anything, he's free to have a donation link in case everyone likes his work. Regarding using other's work, ever wondered why there is a thing called open source?, why wouldn't i use someone's great work in order to improve the kernel? i should do everything myself because you say so LOL. Please stop being delusional, before you ever write something on xda or anywhere else think twice. Im not here to beef with anyone i was explaining you why they block those "optimisers" that you are talking about, however you started talking about a lot of totally different things than what i said. Also if its that easy why don't you do it yourself and make your own kernel, by your analogy those "optimisers" would be bad too because how they can make a better job than qualcomm, samsung,oneplus blablabla LOL? You dont even know what they actually do. You share a lot of missinformation and you should stop. Have a nice day, i don't even know why i'm even arguing with someone like you, i wont reply to any of your answers after this.

First off I have made a couple of custom roms , twrp, and no I haven't made a kernel because it doesn't matter. For instances overclocking used to be a huge deal and now you don't see that ever. It's because it never did anything you could over clock it and if you watch your CPU in a kernel app like kernel auditor or Ex manager it would run at the stock frequencies much like the CPU does now if you try to lower clock speed or max it out. I'm aware that a kernel makes the hardware on the device work mainly the CPU and GPU and every OEM has to add their source to fit it. Here's how I know it's bull crap, now developers are saying kernel is enforcing and made with this tool chain as if the kernel isn't built with enforcing from the get go on stock like that's some feature they added. Me personally not worried about security I still prefer Permissive and yes I know it weakens security but in 5 years of doing this I have never heard of anyone hacking an Android phone. Even with the source code provided it's still difficult to make changes so I don't think people who could do it are going to waste their time. The monthly security patch is not a big deal it's funny that everyone thinks that is great when next month they will tell you last months security patch has security flaws like every month before it. So basically no patch has ever been secure.
If real features were added like double tap to sleep gesture
Color display RGB control
Sound modification so you can add gain on speakers, ear piece or headphones
Those days are gone because no one knows how to do it anymore on new software. Also most kernels say better performance and battery but neither the performance is any better nor does the battery last longer so I don't see how those claims are made. Wait I know because on Xda you can claim anything and everyone just says buttery smooth and long battery life thanks Dev. Before they even flash it.

I built 3 roms for 3 of my devices and I didn't start calling myself a developer because I had to get the vendor blob, kernel source, and lineage files from someone. I really think everyone just builds something or makes a flash able zip with a shell or script in it and immediately starts calling themselves a developer. I have owned the Poco f3 for a couple of weeks now and the TWRP thread is a waste of time. In the opening post it says backup and restore because they just copied and pasted the Normal twrp page. But than you search and almost nothing is being said about restore and you ask and no one will answer you and it's because it doesn't work and no one wants the devs feelings to be hurt. Well that's lovely but the point of a help thread is to discuss problems and solutions but it's became pointless the only thing threads are for is to say thanks for the software and to tell everyone that they don't spoon feed noobs to look it up and thats just stupid again that is why the Google search takes you to xda and that thread because you looked it up. Twrp would be able to backup and restore if xiaomi or Samsung made it because they would know how to make it backup slot a or active slot and restore it to inactive slot or whatever slot it needs to be because that's real development. I'm not trying to be a **** but it's gotten stupid I don't even bother looking through threads anymore because it's a serious waste of time because no one can say anything that might upset the person who made it. Well than don't make it I don't really care
a good kernel, I use it for Xiaomi.eu stable

Can i use this kernel for gaming ?
When I install stock miui, next LOS and my apps , every time I have different results with kernels. I do not understand how it is possible to have always different results for the same software for next tries.
It is third installation of all in my poco f3 and after testing some kernels, this one is a winner and consumes only 0.15% battery every hour during the night. Thank you for the kernel v2.
Edit.
The installation of this kernel reinstalled default LOS recovery. When I installed TWRP and again rooted the result was killed. I see 0.56% during night and this is worse result than own LOS kernel has. I lost a time for this kernel I afraid.

I got a gnexus from ebay today and want to know how I can:
-root and set up a cm11 snapshot (reasonably stable kitkat rom)
-install cwm touch
-unlock the bootloader
-(if possible) get it to activate with another carrier
-have a way of getting back to stock-just in case, not like this thing is under warranty anyway
The thing is, I need to do all of this from a linux system (ubuntu 13.something) and while I do have a fair amount of experience with android and how it works, I have very little idea of the specific aspects of the gnexus. If it helps, my main phone before this was a galaxy s3, I've heard that at the hardware level they're very similar. Thanks in advance for the help.
Just take a looksie around this forum section. TONS of threads with full detailed information on how to go about it.
I'm not sure about the activation on another carrier part as I've never done anything to that degree.
But I CAN say that for all other things you ask it will be a LOT easier than anything you did with the s3(or simpler at least IMHO)
For unlocking boot loader, just install the android SDK to your Linux system(VERY easy, just Google "Android SDK ubuntu/Linux). Then after adding the platform-tools dir from the SDK to your PATH(easy instructions found via googling and on the android SDK download/install site) you simply boot into bootloader/fastboot mode(power off, hold power and both volume buttons at same time) then plug into your computer, then open terminal and enter "fastboot oem unlock"(no quotes) and follow instructions that pop up on device and in terminal. Keep in mind doing this OEM unlock command will COMPLETELY WIPE ALL DATA FROM DEVICE INCLUDING PICTURES AND EVERYTHING LOCATED ON /SDCARD PARTITION .
After that it's a walk in the park to fastboot flash custom recovery img (download whichever recovery version you prefer, I use twrp, make sure you get the one specified for toroplus which can be found again easily via Google "official twrp toroplus".. Be certain you are using the NEWEST img which will be 2.7 or above(not sure if newer released yet) so that you do not get error installing a 4.4 based ROM & gapps)
After unlocking bootloader I recommend using the device itself to download the ROM and gapps zips that you intend to install so that you do not have to use adb to push the files to /sdcard..its just easier.
Then you just boot into recovery mode(after install of custom recovery of course) and choose to install your ROM and gapps zips. Reboot and presto.

As for getting back to stock, that is ALSO VERY SIMPLE! gotta love a nexus device!
You just go here on your computer, https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Grab a stock factory image package(make sure to get the one for your specific variant, for sprint gnex it is mysidspr aka toroplus) and then uncompress it on your laptop, open terminal in that dir, then just plug device in while in bootloader, and run the flash-all.sh (on my setup I have to do "sudo ./flash-all.sh" then just be patient and DO NOT UNPLUG until FULLY FINISHED (radio flashes might seem to take a long time)
If you need any clarification on anything and cannot find the information in these forums, just let me know. Happy to help out.
And welcome to the exciting life of a nexus device, things are sooo much simpler in these lands!

For sprint it is listed as Google Galaxy Nexus(sprint)
Get cm11 snapshot from here
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=toroplus
And gapps are easily found pretty much anywhere, and links are on that last linked site for cyanogenmod.
Enjoy!
And remember, Google Search is your best friend with the Galaxy Nexus Sprint/toroplus tag before anything you will want, Pretty much has official support and downloads for everything
I was coming from the land of manufacturer controlled phones (s3 & g1 to a certain extent) so the main thing I was worried about was how "unlocking" the bootloader sounded like something that I should prepare for, and fear, like flashing one, I'm loving my new nexus. Things really are soooo much simpler, I set it up like I have my s3 set up with appearance and all, though I kind of want to know the best way of transferring apps, other than opening them and using android beam to open play store. Is there a way that I can have it automatically download the apps that I have on my s3?
There could/should have been an option for "automatic restore"(it's not something you choose upon flashing a ROM though. It just does it if you had it set, and I don't know if it works between devices.) As seen below in device settings

I've had issues with it not working before though. I think depends on gapps used and if it syncwd to Google correctly to begin with.
You could try an app like Helium or similar also(some use titanium backup app, I've never used it personally though so cannot comment on it's functions, though it is VERY popular application)

And yea, I was also VERY surprised by the easiness and simplistic nature of the nexus development environment also. Especially coming from a crazy locked down droid X2!
Is just HEAVEN having stock IMG(although we also had simple stock restore SBF files using RSD lite program for x2) but nothing compares to grabbing EVERYTHING you need RIGHT FROM GOOGLE nexus development pages. And ALSO having full on support for all major custom ROMs. With tons of kernel development also.
You may have come at a great time also if our amazing devs are able to get the 3.4based Linux/android kernel working for us with all kinds of enhancements.
Over two years old and STILL very exciting development going on for this device. Welcome again!
And feel free to PM me any questions. Very familiar with Tuna devices will help much as I can
wait, what are the improvements that a linux 3.4 kernel could bring? I know it could mean improvements on a desktop, but what could it really do for android?
There are many improvements.
I cannot name specifics since I am not developer. But the android kernel is based on the Linux kernel. So any bugfixes and improvement to the base kernel in theory are also passed to the android kernel.
We have many great kernel devs who also have spent time backporting things to our current available kernel choices(which are GREAT by the way...I can't say ANY kernel is bad in any way for the Gnex...and you can use ANY tuna kernel for ANY tuna variant(toro, toroplus, maguro)).
But there are many of us who feel that Google kinda stiffed the Gnex when it comes to specific SoC optimizations. And bringing a 3.4kernel(which was what I believe is what most devices that got KitKat 4.4.x shipped with) will bring improved performance and better all around. Along with any optimizations from omapzoom that were only for 3.4 kernels.
Sorry I couldn't be more technically detailed about it :/ too far over my head at this point in time.
how well does the screen-bezel blending on this thing compare to that of the nexus 5 or nexus 4? I've found like absolutely nowhere that actually gives a review of that aspect. I really love a phone that the screen completely blends in with the bezel when off and as much as possible in the black areas of an active screen, I never got the experience with my white galaxy s3, and wouldn't have anyway with the "black" version as the black version is like a brushed dark grey instead of a glossy black the same color as the screen.
Someone else gonna have to chime in for that. I don't have much to compare it to.
The bottom and top bezel I feel could've been smaller, but I always felt this thing looks and feels great in the hand

It's slightly better than the Nexus 5. But the AMOLED used in the Galaxy Nexus doesn't really shut off totally displaying blacks (and I had 3 different displays). You can find others saying the same thing online too. Even with that, the blacks on the GNex are deeper than the Nexus 4/5.
I used a Galaxy Nexus before my current Nexus 5 before , mum has a Nexus 4.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I have found that if u set omap gamma interface to 6 or 7 you will get much deeper/darker Black's on the Gnex screen in case you wanted to give that a shot and see how it looks for ya.
Sometimes I will even set it to between 8+10 if indoors or its dark out. I mess with display settings a LOT
(And to be clear I'm talking about the OMAP gamma contrast setting, not the trinity contrast settings)
how do you change that?
dreamwave said:

Pretty much ANY custom kernel.
I use trickster mod app for my kernel tweaking(play store) second setting in below picture.
Values from 1-10 are accepted(5 is the same as 0...1-4 will make it look washed out, I use 4 or 3 when out in direct sunlight. 6-10 will saturate and look darker)
Lots of screen settings to try.
Cm11 stock kernel should allow for color tweaks also.
And protip: go to Galaxy Nexus Android Development section for your kernel needs. ANY kernel will work on ANY tuna variant. They are not specific to toro, toroplus, or maguro. So the most active section regarding kernels is the maguro section since you can use them on any variant.
I've got my gnexus set up mostly how I like, though I really want to know how hard it would be to re enable tablet ui on kit Kat. I kind of liked being able to at least sometimes make it look like a tablet, and at least want the freedom to do so. I heard that google removed the code, but wouldn't it be possible to just take a 4.0 or 4.1 Rom and copy the code into a kit Kat rom and compile it?

You might want to look into Paranoid Android (other ROMs also have similar options)
They have tablet-like setups and dual-pane options.
They used to have the ability to set these options Per App also, though it has been a while since I've used these ROMs or those options.

I have been very fond of DirtyV by @bsmitty83 lately. The constant tinkering by him and @osm0sis has given such a beautiful result(and I would be remiss if I didn't mention that it has seemed to turn into a nice community driven kernel, with all devs pooling together and being very helpful to each other). And Os's work with the Synapse control support has been awesome.(I haven't personally used Synapse control application yet, but will be very soon. I usually use Trickster, but with all the work done to give large amount of control availability through synapse in this kernel I wouldn't feel right if I at LEAST didn't give her a shot lol!)
Personally I use the Smitty builds of that kernel. There are a couple versions, all are the "same" EXCEPT that smittyV builds do not have the RAM reclaimed from some system things. The others will give more ram available to user, the amount depends on which version you choose(details are in the OP)
Don't be afraid to try em all. See which suits you and your usage best.
Same goes for any of the other kernels available. Askp, hybridremix, and more. I have used pretty much every kernel available. I can't say that ANY are bad at ALL. We have solid developers. Don't be afraid to try em all lol.
In regards to battery life, I've personally never seen any huge gain or loss based on only changing kernel. It is just how it is with the Gnex
For performance, again, they all perform great. Some have different levels you are able to over clock to, or use slight different frequency tables. But NONE of them should degrade performance on your device. Unless it has a bug of course.
But even THEN the stability of all the kernels is STELLAR imho.
So personally right now I am using SmittyV, I WAS using build from 4/12. But @metalspring hooked up a little build for me/us to play around with that has higher IVA freqs enabled(I believe is based on the SmittyV 5/3 build.... by the way, most kernel builds are referred to by the users with their build-date, to make it easier for debugging purposes and clarity amongst everyone when posting about their experience just FYI )
And everything is running beautifully of course.
Another highly praised kernel is Franco kernel. As well as Faux. Franco just put out an update recently as well.
If you ever plan to go back to an older version of android(like 4.2, 4.1) a couple of my Favs would be GlaDos kernel(I believe can only be found on the Rootzwiki.com forums), AK, trinity, and Lean Kernel for SURE(as well as Franco and faux again lol) I'm not sure if Lean kernel has been updated to work on 4.4 or not.
Oh and Tiny Kernel is damn solid as well.
And my fav/best might not necessarily be the same for you. Its honestly a personal preference thing now since we have such crazy solid amazing developers here on this device. They are all fairly consistent. Gone are the days(IMHO) of one kernel reigning supreme due to other devs being less experienced, since many of our devs share their works closely and are constantly popping in each others threads to help directly when needed. We don't see much (if ANY) bashing from one dev to another or anything like that.
Wow, I'm rambling and didn't really give you a "good answer" lol.
Personal opinion::: Start with DirtyV. Don't be afraid to OC/tweak the living crap outta it(or just run it stock if u prefer). Then make a backup(you can backup just the kernel with app like trickster! Or just backup 'boot" in a nandroid) and give another a whirl.
And ABOVE ALL ELSE: HAVE FUN! I got addicted to kernel flashing and tweaking when I came to the Galaxy Nexus from the DroidX2 which we couldn't change kernel versions on. I just LOVE being able to change everything about how the device runs. And learning what each advanced setting does(like all the governor controls and timings, scheduler tweaks, sysctl tweaks, anything!). And I STILL don't know exactly what they all do. But I ain't afraid to change it and find out lmao. Cuz the gnex is so easy to bring back to life (as you've found out already)
EDIT:::; how Did I forget to mention Fancy kernel as well?!? Sorry boype! This is ANOTHER great one available to us!!
As always, if you have any specific questions about a kernel or something, just shout it out

I really want a kernel that uses the absolute minimum of battery when there is no activity or just mild activity but that is able to handle extreme overclocking (I'm talking in the 1200mhz to at most 1400mhz range) without crashing or anything. I don't need something that has never been recorded to crash, just something that won't "lay a reboot egg" when I step up the pressure, without it being so power hungry that I can't get through a school day with it on and still be able to play coc on the bus. P.S. this si such a change from the G1 where I still don't think they have an active kernel dev...flashing a kernel was just something that came with a few custom roms, not really something that was really done on its own.

sorry I forgot quick reply doesn't notify
This is a booting CAF 3.10 kernel for none other than our shiny OnePlus One. Personally, I'm satisfied with my phone as it is with a 3.4 kernel (and 3.10 is a lot of work without proper firmware), so I've given up on developing this 3.10 kernel. This thread is just a free-for-all for anyone who wants to have a crack at developing 3.10.
I threw this kernel together pretty sloppily 2 months ago, so I apologize for the lack of full git history from CAF and some messy code from me. The kernel is based off of the LA.BF.2.1_rb1.xx branch from CAF. The kernel should boot as-is on the official CM nightlies, and it is confirmed to boot on my CM12.1 builds. All it requires is updated WCNSS configuration binaries to boot (flashable zip available in the downloads tab of the thread). The kernel currently only supports JDI command-mode panels, and I compiled the kernel with Google's GCC 4.8 toolchain.
Source code: https://github.com/sultanxda/android_kernel_oneplus_bacon-3.10
What works:
It boots (woo)
Display
Touchscreen
Modem (no mobile data though)
WiFi
Charger (not from wall outlets though)
Battery percentage/health reporting
Volume keys
Sensors
USB
Assume everything else doesn't work. Here's a fun screenie: http://imgur.com/H1UERfr

One I would love to mess with is Heterogeneous Multi-Processing. Also some of the other upstream scheduler commits. For one, they are what make the N6 a true quad core in that it doesn't use any hotplugging, just CPU C states while maintaining pretty decent battery life. It changes how threading works and how workloads are transferred to other cores. At least this is the main thing I would love to see and mess with. Almost makes me want to get an N6. I love my OPO though.

man, that would be cool but it would be a massive undertaking then you would need a road map for other rom Devs to use to even use the work you have done let alone to even be accepted officially from major Roms out there like CM. This is something I have thought about alot but the work needed to put in doesn't match anything near what I would get out of it. This doesn't mean money necessarily but time, time away from family, etc.
This is still something I will take a look at. I wouldn't mind any input from @DerRomtester at all.

No ramdisk changes, no missing dtbs. Just ran a mrproper and compiled it exactly as it is on my GitHub, and it boots. Compiled with GCC 4.8 from Google using almost the exact same script I use to compile my 3.4 kernel, with the only change being that the dtb path for the dtbtool is arch/arm/boot/dts/, not arch/arm/boot/ (though you probably already figured that out).

If companies released the drivers we would have 3.10.x, 3.18.x and even 4.2.x kernels(someone would try to do it even if it turned out a failure)
Released drivers also would have better optimised roms and would make a 5 year old device to live forever (new android e.g. android 7? no problem)

I'm the worst kind of programmer, I mean I do own a degree but the programming language was my weakest link, so I can't help and kernel is one of the hardest parts it needs big ..knowledge to do it :silly:
Now lets not go off topic and wish for someone to work on 3.10.x I mean even if it's buggy and a bit unstable it will bring some new stuff and when it gets stable well then the fun will start

I wasn't exactly interested in 3.10 until i read yours comment. If this kernel can also make opo work like N6 i.e. running always on quad core mode and still maintain good battery lyf, man i would pray that either opo or cm releases 3.10 kernel.

This will never happen. From a business perspective, it costs too much for little benefit, and only introduces the potential for more bugs.
However, here is a hint: Bacon's TrustZone firmware does not check metadata when loading firmware images, so you can technically load firmware from any device (ex: you can use Venus firmware from a totally different device).
If you know what you're doing and you have 3 months of your life to burn on this, then it should be possible to get everything working with the LA.BF.2.1_rb1.xx kernel branch.

Not a fan of lineage code.
We need a aosp rom like Purefusion.
We need Kernel source from Motorola first. They are dragging their feet like always. Without kernel source, we can't get a 100% working TWRP for custom roms to flash
Agreed. We need them to drop source code like they said they would.

Kernel source was given by Motorola. There is my git with the edits for a regular machine running GCC 4.9 to build a kernel that boots and works.
How much less is less?
If you build it they will come.... ("Field of Dreams" movie line) Seriously, though, I do wonder if giving up stability and features is worth it for minimal gains in performance/benchmarks? Motorola's take on Android is already bare-bones compared to Samsung! With Lineage, it's slightly easier to theme, true, but Substratum suffices for many individuals on stock. I haven't tried Substratum yet, because I don't like dark themes. Don't get me wrong, I want Lineage to succeed! The more open-source options the better! But, is it worth it for the principle, or modest increase in speed (maybe)? Bugless and not losing any features, I would run Lineage; so, we'll see, because it will come in due time.

Totally correct. Our device is so close to stock it's ridiculous. We pretty much have a pixel phone with slower updates and mods. Which I'll take over the boringness of a pixel. Yes substratum would be pretty cool but I know things are coming we have a kernel being updated to the latest kernel version available. We're testing twrp right now and have it 95% working and now we have twrp and magisk and an updated kernel all going at once things are coming along slowly but I feel they will pick up soon

That looks like the stock tmo version [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23].
There should be almost no diference at all.
But i want some LineageOS [emoji41]

I'm confused, the kernel sources still haven't been released?

Yes, they were released. Kernel builds fine. For AOSP stuff we need vendor files. We are piecing things together. All builds have failed so we haven't even had a chance to see if it boots.
Why hasn't a kernel been fully released? (Besides the upstreamed one in the custom ROM section) because of encryption not working right in TWRP, you'd lose root when flashing as TWRP can't put the ramdisk back correctly hence no root.
Somebody should start Lineage. I would do it if I had enough experience but I don't yet. Huge tasks like LTE not working, etc., can arise depending upon the particular phone....
The attached screenshot illustrates the dynamics quite well. I was initially mildly surprised by the Lineage developer's response to someone, "When you start paying me." But, for some developers who devote lots of their time to Lineage, I suppose the questions can become tiresome. Every developer is different, of course, and it is a global scale endeavor.
Just heard about Android GO. Is there any thought to building it for Galaxy Nexus? With the frustrations of no root for my g6 I've been playing around with my old Nexus device. I've never built a room before but am more then willing to learn or help.
I also would think this may be a really good thing for our devices, seeing that there has now been Unofficial LineageOS 15.1 builds already being made for First Gen Android One Devices. I would also be willing to learn and test out developments, however I would probably still leave it to the professionals like @Android-Andi, @Ziyan, @nailyk, @osm0sis and @amaces.
I am positive that with a combined effort we all could make our "retro" android device, bang up to date with Oreo Go, which may also help improve speed due to memory improvements that have been made in Oreo Go. I also wouldn't be surprised if one of the mentioned above isn't already in the process of doing this.

I have not time at all (for that device) and am not good enough at kernel tasks.
If someone is able to port HWBinder on our 3.0 kernel I guess being able to help on a few things. If I get some time one day, I will try to backport it from 'my' Sony 3.4 one.

Binder and other backports are not the deal breaker for Oreo on K3.0 (see our UA staging trees). The problem is lack of usable (and public) DDK UM blobs, which is much harder, if not impossible to fix. Also, the availability of Go GApps is more important than building a Go ROM.

Gapps are not important for me
I though the graphic driver was open source ?
Sorry for noob question, but I do not know the omap world...
I dunno if this would help any of our wonderful developers, however I just seen this "Oreo Low-RAM Property Mod" basically giving Oreo an Android GO style update. If I could build it all myself then I would, however I don't actually know where to even start.
i want to overclock and water cool my poco f3 and I need some help since I’m still a beginner , what is the fastest ROM on the poco f3 that’s goona give you the best performance in games and still has play store and what custom kernel should I use with it that will give you the best performance and has overclocking and voltage tuning for both cpu and gpu and an app that can do that and remove the thermal threshold since I’m going to watercool it ? also can the pass through charging features that’s available on the rog phones be implemented via a custom kernel and an app to unlock fps limit on games locked at 30 or 60 to 90 or 120 and further tweak the ingame settings and finally can you unlock the max brightness of the poco f3 even when it’s not on direct sunlight ? Sorry for all this questions but you don’t have to answer all of them , any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you !
if you want the best performance, you'll need:
Adreno drivers 615v3
A650+ lyb config
overlock konabess config
thermal no junk
All in a telegram channel called Adreno GPUs & Konabess Support Group
About custom roms, most or all the custom roms here are either AOSP, Xiaomi EU skins.
Personally, i hate AOSP, its too bland compared to MIUI.
I always get buggy vibes from xiaomi eu.
About custom kernels, personally from my experience with custom kernels, whatever kernels you use, whatever the kernel developer says, there will always be bugs and issues. So, I stick with stock.

Can you still overclock and get the best performance without a custom kernel ? Or will a custom kernel and os will give you better performance even though it’s buggy?

Honestly stock or pure aosp is the best bet when it comes to pulling out the most performance...
By aosp I mean pure GSI image, but it it's not stable enough for daily use + you'd have to figure out how to tell kernel to ramp up the performance , I have a guide on fixing GSI just to make it usable but it's far from fully working... Best bet is to ditch GSI image altogether and start building from source, if you have any experience try looking into that. If not get arrow os and it should be as close to stock as possible.
Hentai os is mentioned a lot as a good ROM, but it's not open source fully
Tell me more about how you plan to watercool your phone
I'm looking to do something similar as well
You want to check first how far konabess will overclock, if it's up to 683mhz and not a single bit higher might be a good idea to ditch watercooling and start looking for a motherboard swap.
Earlies batch could overclock past 683mhz into the 900-1000mhz range, that's insane performance boost and prolly worth spending money on instead of trying to cool a locked chip... Check adreno group for more info on how to check CPU version

Thank you ! that’s what I’m trying to find out , if it doesn’t overclock past 683 MHz watercooling is just unnecessary
I plan on removing the back of the phone and using this block :
than attaching a single fan radiator and a fan , I still haven’t figure out about the tubes and how to attach the block to the phone :\
my question now : is the 865 the last mobile soc that can be overclocked and what about the cpu can you overclocked it as well ? Thanks !
my chip is locked to 683, so, i only overclocked to 683 and i am on stock rom and stock kernel
All the bullets i wrote earlier can be done on stock rom and stock kernel

Hi, can you explain me how can I Install all that things? Without guide with images I can understand T^T
The steps are mentioned in the telegram group with the changelog and the advantages and disadvantages
