[KERNEL][3.0.71][JB/ICS] LTX Kernel | JB v1.2 | ICS v0.7.8

[KERNEL][3.0.71][JB/ICS] LTX Kernel | JB v1.2 | ICS v0.7.8 | - HTC Sensation XL

Buglist:- Since v0.6 - Stock task/memory managers will not detect the amount of RAM used by apps.
As a workaround, use any task manager from Google Play.
How to install:--On S-OFF devices--
-Flash the zip via recovery! (twrp or cwm)
-Reboot
--On S-ON devices--
-S-OFF your device, then use above steps!
(Yes, i highly recommend to S-OFF before using any custom made things!)
or
-Extract the boot.img from the .zip.
-Get in fastboot and flash via [highlight]fastboot flash boot boot.img[/highlight].
-Reboot into recovery.
-Flash the zip via recovery.
-Reboot
[highlight]The same thing applies if you update to a higher version or if you downgrade to a lower version of the kernel.[/highlight]

README!- JB Versions recieve OTA updates over Goo Manager!
-Do a nand backup before testing!
-[highlight]Test[/highlight] versions are for testing, therefore expect bugs and please report them in detail.
-Beware that you use this at your own risk and please provide feedback in order to get it stronger/better/bla bla bla
-The versions of kernel for ICS Sense around here should work on all OFFICIAL ICS 2.31.401.2 RUU based roms, and the official one of course, so if you use a different firmware, make sure you make a backup as there are BIG chances it will not work.
-The versions of kernel for JB will work only on AOSP based ROM's like Cyanogenmod, Paranoid, PAC, AOKP and so on, version 4.2 and up!
-The JB build already have this kernel included as it's the only one right now to support JB for our device, but here you can get the latest changelogs and eventually updates for the kernel if not available otherwise.
-[highlight]ION[/highlight] versions of kernel are for ION versions of ROM's, don't use it if you don't know what that means!
-[highlight]DO NOT USE JB KERNELS ON SENSE/ICS ROMS![/highlight]
-Use SetCPU or CPU Master Free(<<my personal choice) in order to activate OC or other Governors and Schedulers, can be found on market
What i say here is just my opinion for the best freq usage possible:
-Stock: Conservative 245 - 1500 Mhz
-Battery friendly: Conservative 149 - 1200 Mhz
-Balanced: SmartassV2 149 - 1497 Mhz
-Kickass: Ondemand 245 - 1800 Mhz
--Best Graphics score: 1497 Mhz
--Best CPU score: 1800 Mhz (you don't say?)
(1497 Mhz was introduced in LTX since 0.7.6)

Sources:For a more detailed Changelog check the GitHub repo!
As the source-code may help others, or if you simply want to see what the code looks like, here it is the gihub link of my kernel, it will be updated as soon as changes are made on it, enjoy the open-source creations!
FAQ:Q: How can i use SWAP?
You need to find a script or to activate it manually, check the xda forum for a init.d script for that.
Q: Will battery last more with this kernel?
On stock values yes, it can be improved by changing VDD voltages and Underclocking.
Q: Will performance be better with this kernel?
It also depends on the ROM you are using, but YES, performance will be better.
Q: What are all the terms around here about?
Check this beautiful and plentiful GUIDE!
Q: Why should i use this kernel?
Because it's better than stock, don't believe me? Try it!
Q: Will you port this or that kernel for our device?
No, but i can include features, just ask for them
Q: With what Toolchain is this kernel compiled?
This kernel is compiled with official Google toolchain version 4.6.3
Q: Why don't you use this or that toolchain to compile your kernel?
Because there is no difference, check this thread for details.
Fanbar:As now the kernel has a little personality, i decided to make a fanbar

How to install?
-Do a NAND backup! (yes, you must!)
-Flash the zip via clockworkmod!
-From clockworkmod go to backup and restore > advance restore > restore system!

Can you add SWEEP2WAKE ?

Works great with Sense 4.0, thanks mate! Just wondering, after installing setCPU is it only necessary to set mhz to 1804 and nothing else such as governors etc? Anyway, works very fast, good start!

Yes, a so fast battery drain is the only little problem with the kernel...

thanks for this kernal, now my battery consumption in sleep mode is Awesome,,, the day before when i was not using ur kernal it took 30% of battery for one night,,now after flashing this Awesome kernal it consume 3% for whole night... Loved it . Keep going .

Introducing HydraCore - the first kernel for all ROM types for the Galaxy Note GT-N7000 !
Q&A THREAD (click here)
Please refer to this thread only for non-development chat. Failing to do so will result in your post being removed by the moderator constantly monitoring this thread
General Features:
- Built from latest samsung Note sources
- Multiboot InitramFS for all rom types
- Patches for full functionality for all rom types
- Supports Touchwiz ICS, AOKP, AOSP, CM9 , CM10, JellyBean, ParanoidAndroid, MIUI roms
- OC/UV version and a Standard frequencies/voltages version
- Full root
- Magical elves and wizardry**
Kernel Features
- Noop scheduler default
- Tweaked OnDemand governor default
- Lots of IO tweaks
- Lots of kernel scheduler tweaks
- Adjusted all cpu voltage tables (OC kernel only)
- Realtime cpu temperature, board temperature readouts and VoltGroup information in settings>about>kernel version
- Optimised VM memory setting
- Optimised Global block readahead
- CIFS support with UTF8
- Voltages and frequencies now in userspace for Voltage Coltrol app / AOKP direct support
- lots, and lots of other tweaks (see full source)
CWM Features
- External SD card mount properly within cwm for USB Mass Storage mode / PC connection
- Select between .dep and .tar backups. TAR backups recommended!
- Fully working
THIS KERNEL HAS MMC_CAP_ERASE REMOVED AND IS FULLY SAFE FOR ALL WIPES ON ALL ROM TYPES
Kernel Installation
Install either through CWM or PC/Mobile ODIN in the usual manner. Wiping Cache and Dalvik Cache is unnecessary and wont make any difference. Flash only with 25% or more charge on the phone
Installation routine for the rom of your choice
- Either flash HydraCore or have a kernel installed with CWM
- Download your ROM of choice, follow any specific rom installation instructions (in the ROM thread OP) and flash with CWM
- Flash HydraCore in CWM or with Mobile / PC Odin
Kernel Versions
There are two versions of this kernel, one with native OC/UV and one with standard (stock) frequencies. If you are new to this kernel, flash the STD (standard) version first, as this will work with all phones.
As you become more experienced, you might want to try the OC/UV kernel, which sets the maximum CPU speed to 1600Mhz and Maximum GPU speed to 400mhz. The OC/UV kernel is undervolted, and in some circumstances can offer significant performance improvements. However, it *may* use more battery and you phone will get a little warmer.
CPU Frequencys and how they are used
Not all apps/games force the CPU to ramp up to the highest frequency (1.4 or 1.6 GHz, depending on the kernel variant you flashed). For example, while playing Temple Run, Coin Dozer and Mutant Roadkill, the CPU will mostly stay at 600 / 800 MHz. Even while playing intensive games like Pocket Legends, the CPU will stay at 600 / 800 MHz most of the time, with the CPU ramping all the way up to the maximum frequency only when very intensive graphics occur, which is like 20% of the time.
Downloads:
STANDARD Kernel (no OC)
v7 CWM Zip - http://hecubus.com/xda/kernel/HydraCore/GL_HYDRACORE_v7_STD.zip
OC/UV kernel (with overclock / undervolt)
v7 CWM Zip - http://hecubus.com/xda/kernel/HydraCore/GL_HYDRACORE_v7_OC.zip
Known Issues
- Button Backlights in TouchWiz ROMS
Setting the "Touch key light duration" to "Always Off / Always On" will not behave as such. The touch keys will light up and stay like that for up to three seconds if touched directly. Touching / unlocking the screen will not cause them to light up. On non-TouchWiz ROMs, this behavior has not been detected.
REPORTING BUGS
When reporting a bug, please provide the following information
- The ROM you are using
- The kernel version (oc / std)
- Your phones voltage group (settings > about > kernel information)
Failing to provide this information will result in your post most likely being ignored - remember we cannot help you if you cannot provide us with information we need
Other information, history and for German speakers
You can find the complete history of this kernel, with all older changelogs and news, all translated into German by our friend Atonal at this link. You will also find a complete download set of all versions of my kernels at the same place! brilliant

Kernel Kitchen, Full Source code and GPL:
Basically i can't be bothered with GitHub so I make my entire build directory, build scripts and initramfs available in one complete package. This is compliant with the GPL licence.
You can unpack the package to any folder anywhere on your system. You will need a cross compiler toolchain installed, and set the Makefile in source/Makefile point to the cross compiler location. Codesourcery's arm-none-linux-gnueabi 2012/03 release is recommended.
Read the README-INSTRUCTIONS file, and from a root terminal, run the menu.sh script. The rest is obvious :good:
The source packages contain the following
- Kernel kitchen
- Unmodified reference source
- Modified files directory
- Working source directory
- a .patch which you can use to patch any other sources with (includes ALL changes)
- Initramfs
Kernel kitchen source package FTP directory and downloads -

DISCLAIMER
By flashing any custom kernel you understand the risks involved. As with any flash, there is always a small risk that something could go wrong and/or data loss. I am in no way responsible for any damages, loss of data, brickage, loss of work or any other loss associated with any faults due to the installation of this software.
**magical elves were harmed in the making of this kernel**

So far so good. Thank you.
just installed the Extreme version and WOW.
5th July 2012.
Well it’s been 24 hours since I installed this Kernel, 5 of which was really putting it through its paces and I have had absolutely no issues, NONE. It looks like I’ve found my Kernel of preference.

just flash the CWM zip for now :good:

ODIN flash TAR should be working now :good:

IO score was 9100. This is superb.
Have you disabled Fsync ? Would it cause data integrity problems ?

Yet another awesome release from you Gavin
Keep up the good work :good:

Yes its disabled. I have been disabling it for years on my android.roms and kernels and its never an issue.
Data gets written out every 1.5 seconds on this kernel so its really safe

trying this kernel now, when i go into CWM im getting message
"this version of CWM Manager should be
used with CF-Root v5.0 or newer. It appears
you are running a different kernel. Various
features have been disabled".
i was running chainfires LQ3 kernel prior.

Hello,
test your kermel right now-first Impressions is very fine!
Data,Wifi and so on... all o.k.
Thnks for great work -i`m still testing...
Best Regards

Just flashed the tar file and so far so good.extremely smooth and quadrant scores exceeding 4k for the first time for me.
But I noticed that the flash widget is missing.

[B][04-29-2013][/B] initial release
Additional stuff:
GPU OC more than 520MHz:
For daily use, i set the max GPU rate to 520MHz. This should be enough.
But if you think, you need more heat to cook something for example, you can go up to 600MHz. Therefore you need to set a new max GPU clock limit. You do this using the following commands:
Code:
echo '<GPU_clock>' >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_oc
with <GPU_clock> being your new desired max clock rate
Setting LP max rate:
You have now the ability to set the max speed of the low power core (5th core). You can do this using the following command:
Code:
echo '<LP_clock>' >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpu_lp_max
with <LP_clock> being your new desired max clock rate
Changing the voltage table:
You have the ability to change the voltages for the processor from now on. But just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Changing voltages is dangerous! In the worst case, you can burn your processor!
I am not at all responsible for damage, caused my my kernel/your settings!
You can find the interfaces here:
Code:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_mV_table <--- CPU
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/avp_UV_mV_table <--- GPU
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/emc_UV_mV_table <--- RAM
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/lp_UV_mV_table <--- LP core
For using @arararagi's hardware customizations, i'd suggest you to use his toolbox from this thread

Stock builds of Werewolf JB
Hi all.
I'll be maintaining WerewolfJB kernel for stock. The links will be listed on this post. I may also upload experimental kernels.
All credits go to @laufersteppenwolf for his excellent kernel.
For now, the link for WerewolfJB v005 stock is this: https://www.box.com/s/okea8s7pdqcgf5soppbi
And for WerewolfJB v005 CM (with increased voltages and new modules for mobile data): https://www.box.com/s/4d3vxivlcu9ebsku6r4f
Flash it via CWM/TWRP.
Note: Both stock AND CM versions have increased voltage for the 1.7GHz step to 1300mV because of reported instability. Be careful in undervolting since the voltage table is slightly imbalanced, so perhaps -75mV can work for some frequencies but not for others. Furthermore, I removed quite a lot of wakelock references in baseband_xmm_power but forgot to revert them back to the "fix", so if you have any baseband instability please drop me a PM. Also please do report battery life performance, along with a screenshot of your wakelocks and ideally a dmesg. Thanks.
==============================
Experimental versions (for STOCK):
None for now.

Woohoo thanks!! Goodies for us

I would have liked to release the ROM tonight, too.... but my lappy somehow didn't agree with me
Please test and report back. Also about gaming performance.

Is to flash the Kernel with Fastboot the only way ?
Our can I flash it with Terminal Emulator?

What about battery life?
On official CM when I use 3G Internet, battery drain is very, very fast.

OP updated with terminal instructions

this is a great news, another custom kernel :beer:
but I'm still with zaiben rom (base on stock rom) cause for me cm 10.1 rom still not ready for my daily use. I hope you will build for stock rom too
surely I will try your kernel when I'm ready to move to cm official or when you release you rom

This kernel seems good so far - feels smoother and more consistently buttery. I'll have a look for bugs - I don't know about the governors, though.

BRIEF EXPLANATION ABOUT KERNEL FEATURES
UKSM
UKSM is about de-duplication of data in system memory rather than being another de-duplicating file-system. This improves RAM usage.
Dynamic Sync Control
The dynamic sync control interface uses Android kernel's unique early suspend / late resume interface. While screen is on, file sync is disabled. When screen is off, a file sync is called to flush all outstanding writes and restore file sync operation as normal.
Frandom
Frandom is a Linux kernel random number generator, which is 10-50 times faster than what you get from Linux' built-in /dev/urandom. 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.
CPU Boost driver
When certain bursty and important events take place, it might take a while for the current cpufreq governor to notice the new load and react to it. That would result in poor user experience. To alleviate this, the cpu-boost driver boosts the frequency of a CPU for a short duration to maintain good user experience while the governor catches up.
FAQ
On which ROM can I install nebula?
- nebula can be used on any AOSP kitkat 4.4+ based ROM. (Carbon, SlimKat, CM11)
What is the best and most stable configuration for nebula?
- Configuration depends from user to user. Still, the most stable configuration according to me and that I use is below. It might differ for you.
- Governor: SmartassV2
- Max. freq: 1.2 Ghz (OCing doesn't really have an increased and noticeable performance, rather it heats the processor and wastes battery for a marginal gain in performance as well as creates instability - random reboots etc. Google more about OC.) (Read the description on this commit.)
- I/O Scheduler - SIO
- Enable UKSM (from Performance Control app)
- Enable Dynamic FSync (from Performance Control app)
- I'll update this configuration as more tweaks are added to nebula
I get random reboots, what should I do?
- I am working on the kernel for myself and the kernel is quite stable for me. Still, if you face reboots see below:
- Make sure you followed the installation instruction written in Post #1.
- Make sure you "Fix permissions".
- OCing will always cause instability. Try reducing the max frequency to 1.2 Ghz
- It is quite possible that you don't know how to use a custom kernel. Not everything needs to be set at HIGHEST. Just because an "option" is there doesn't mean you have to select it. Try changing the configuration that meets your needs and satisfies you. If you set up the kernel properly, it would stop giving you random reboots.
- The only way to get things fixed is to provide logs. I cannot fix that I cannot see. Google, how to take logs to find and solve kernel issues. (kmsg/last_kmsg)
- Tell me a way in which I can reproduce the issue on my phone.

Does hotplugging work well with zzmove governor? I remember trying hotplug on s2vep and it freezed almost everytime while deep-sleeping.

Same issue on baffin too. That's why I have removed zzmoove from the kernel.

hmm... xenon92... already k2wl has made a custom kernel with O.C till 1.8GHz so why have you the max @ 1.6GHz ?

Read the description in this commit - Link
There has already been a discussion on CM11 thread about how much does it really benefit by OCing at higher frequencies. Refer to that thread's discussion for more info.
In short - OCing at too high frequency heats up the CPU (obviously) and doesn't necessarily increase performance.
Even though I have added OC till 1.6 Ghz, but even I don't use that setting. 1.2 Ghz is fine for me.

Another kernel for AOSP rom.....:laugh::laugh::good::good::good::good:
Installed the kernel in carbon ROM and is working fine....:good::good:
ll update more on the battery stat later...

any FC's anybody facing?....anything at all..during call or anything??..just asking..would have tested myself but my net is limited right now till tomorrow......so can't ..will surely tomorrow onwards download evry single one (as m xenon work fan lets say )...but wont risk using mbs if it got any bugs...

It's actually 1797 MHz, so let's say it's only 3MHz shy from 1.8 GHz
This kernel looks promising, I will download, install, and use it for a few days

Dint tried overclock though...:fingers-crossed:

I need a lil battery life guys my service provider doesn't have 3g for now some TRAI issues and i stay away frm hme most of the time so using 2g and the screentime i get max is 3 hrs 30 mins wid evolution kernel processor=conservative,I/O=sio or sio plus and today i reverted back to cm's stock kernel and have flashed the latest build my biggest issue is when my battery drops down to 30% it starts draining drastically say like for 2 mins from 30 to 24% any help would be definitely appreciated have made calibrations until now again calibrating tonight and will test after that nebula for sure because only name i knew for best custom roms was and is XENON92!:thumbup:

If the system did a forced reboot to avoid further CPU instability, the options will revert back to default... correct me if I'm wrong.
pawitp also said in the CM11 thread, that the options dont instantly set on system boot. You may have to wait 1 minute and check back.

Many of you knows already knows me from my older LiteGX kernel series (for Android 4.1.2 & 4.3).
This time for SimpleGX, I would like to be closer of stock than LiteGX by removing a lot of unneeded things which finally were not gaining any battery stat at all. I had to review everything from zero (once again !).
SimpleGX is only looking for simplicity and stability, trying to aim for best battery life, smoothness and performance experience, than a pure stock kernel.
SimpleGX will now abandon all scripts that I created for LiteGX (even if some of them are still compatible but not recommended).
I really would like to create back a kernel which was my main idea, a kernel “flash-and-play”, nothing to configure, no need to be a nerd, every newbies can have directly best battery life and smoothness once flashed. Of course that’s every kernel cookers wants, but I would not qualify mine as a real “custom kernel”, since it’s not offering any app to configure it and having much more opportunities, at the cost of many random instabilities (freezes, lags, reboots, etc).
There is many differences between LiteGX and SimpleGX, you will have to compare threads if you want to know them.
I really would like once again to give a huge thanks to my friendly devs (post #3) who helped me a lot during all kernel building phase, learning me, and making adventure possible. I can tell also that Google is really a good friend, I confirm that ^^
I still don’t qualify myself as of a real developer, but just a basic person with some android/linux knowledge already.
As always, I’am enjoying sharing my contribution here on XDA for free, which taking me a lot of time to release, so if you can offer me a little beer (as I’am still jobless yet), I will really appreciate that and you will be added into post #4 ! LiteGX had more than 10000 total downloads, I let you imagine if everybody gave me at least a single dollar ! ^_^
This kernel must be only flashed over an official Samsung ROM and not AOSP/AOKP !
Feel free to include my kernel to your ROMs / Threads but please don't forget to inform/ask first via PM and credit me in your original thread.

i will try this one out
by the way, is there any app by which i can configure the settings? like Stweaks or Boeffla Config?

It's a plug and play, but if you want, you can try trickster for setting stuff like zram on or off, but nothing much to do though.

Your Kernel really rocks. I have been always using your Kernel for close to stock. I am still using LiteGX.
I have tried several one but was looking for one which is hassle free. Your is the one.
This one I will not use now due to USB tethering broken, will wait for next version with that fix.

As long as you flash it on android 4.3 and that the automatical script during procedure won't stop you before checking, then you are good to go
When samsung release his (for example 4.3) source, you can be sure that it will be compatible with every 4.3 future coming firmwares :good:
Sometimes a ramdisk upgrade can also help in some case, so if needed I will do it, no worries

As stated in the story part of post #1, and as Mosh Edd said, this is a flash and play kernel :good: but you can still configure governor settings or some options directly via TricksterMod/SetCPU, etc (don't forget to keep settings after rebooting).
Mosh Edd said:
like zram on or off

I intentionally disabled stock ZRAM which was on by default via defconfig so no way to activate it manually :angel:
I decided to always disabled it now on SImpleGX, since zram is eating battery a bit and after some ours of use you will face some random lags.

I informed Lord Boeffla about this bug which affects every kernels, he will take a look as soon as he can :good:
By waiting, I will maybe release a "no_IUPC" (no Ignore Unstable Power Charging) version in parallel for each releases, so each one will choose directly if they prefer fast charging or slow charging but with USB tethering working. I intentionally used IUPC as default because wifi it still working to share (for the few I'am using it..) and that I prefer to not wait hours to charge only 10% of my device

Thanks for the reply mate. I just installed and all seem to be fine so far. will test couple of more days and update here.
BTW do we need to clean init.d folder ? i know boeffla andi frequently recommends cleaning up init.d folder. is this necessary with your kernel. Note, i dont have any issues so far (only used few mins though).
Thanks for the advise.

He is right because some init.d scripts can affects stock settings from governors for example or try to enable/disable things that is not from my kernel, etc :good:
For exemple, I'am using NeatROM 6.5 and I can see that there is a lot of scripts in init.d already by default bur they don't affect any of kernel part so it's ok
There's no other solution that checking manually each of them, sadly.

Hi,
Thanks for the new kernel!
I come from the latest LiteGX kernel, so I run the cleaner script before flashing this one. My phone hangs when I reboot. I restarted my phone to get it to boot, but then I now have SwiftKey not loading. What could be the problem?
I reverted back you LiteGX for now.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

I flashed kernel last night and waited until phone settled. Checked if all works fine, and it does, and then put the phone in flight mode.
This morning I checked battery stats and it looks like battery was charging a bit while in flight mode (phone was not connected to any power source).
Funny
All is super smooth. Thank you :thumbup:

Strange, as I'am using SwiftKey also and no problem here. If phone hangs at boot this it not normal, did you tried to re-download the kernel from first post ? (maybe a bad download).
If problem still here, maybe try to Try to wipe cache + dalvik from your recovery :good:

By waiting, I advice you also to try a wipe cache and dalvik before reaching another 100% and disconnect again to verify :good:
I will try this night aswell to confirm or not if I have the same bug

3.0.31? Why no update to 3.0.101?

Debugging the kernel
/proc/kmsg is a file that stores all the kernel messages from the very first seconds of the boot process. A copy of that file isn't always needed to fix a bug, but since I've explained how to get one I don't even remember how many times, I'll write here the needed steps:
1. open a terminal on your phone
2. run the following commands:
- su
- cat /proc/kmsg > /sdcard/kernel_log
3. the log will be stored in kernel_log.

Download your favourite splashscreen here, rename it to "logo.rle" and place it in /data/data: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B-msDWtyu1JrUE56Qkh3X3JiT3M&usp=sharing
If you don't wipe /data in the recovery, there's no need to redownload the splashscreen you want every time you update ROM/kernel. It will already be there.

If you had previously flashed the old PhilZ with Rashr, you need to flash stock FOTAKernel to use TWRP in v3.1 and later.
Use this zip that will flash a stock FOTAKernel (thanks to @TechnoSparks): http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-sp/general/stock-components-flashable-zips-t3184111/post62447981
be sure to choose your variant (e.g. C5303)!
Or, if you've got the whole C530x .ftf file, you can also flash the FOTAKernel via FlashTool.

I'll see what can I do. If I manage to port it, I'll release 2 versions: one with Doubletap2wake and one without it.

If you want any help related to double tap to wake function you head into galaxy s3's android development section. And there you have to see for arter kernel it is the best kernel for double tap to wake and you could pm the developer for any help

I installed it, all seem work fine. Except I am not able to change a CPU governor, as there is only IO governor option on the performance tab.

That option isn't available with stock kernel too.
Don't use CM's built-in kernel tweaker. It sucks. Use Trickster MOD.

Good work bro
use this mods for next version
- Swap support
- Zram support
- CPU underclock
- CPU limiter
- O3 compression

No need to set SELinux to permissive in this kernel :victory:

So, i've tested it on RR 5.4.0 and it works but cyanogenmod recovery is SAD! can't flash anything so please include CWM, Philz and TW like other kernel.
When i flashed it, it take very long time it's normal?!

Nice kernel, i hope some features are going to be added like fast charge, faux sound and more cpu frequencies. If u want to flash another recovery use Rashr Flash tool.

WOAH a custom kernel for 5.1! Congrats @Tomoms ! I'm going to test it.

If you have already flashed PhilZ w/ Rashr, installing this kernel won't overwrite it.
Can you explain better "It takes very long"? It takes a lot of time to boot/to flash/...?
BTW, v2 is in progress! A lot of new features, I hope they work... :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Yeah, I had to create it mainly because unlocking the bootloader and staying on a featureless kernel seemed nonsensical to me.

Will directly flash v2, Waiting And the thing I Love the most is "Permissive SELinux"
Sent from Xperia SP with Lollipop 5.1 (RR 5.4.0)

i have rr5.4 build running quite good with philz recovery.
whats the difference bw the rr's kernel and this one.

A small update for all of you. v2 is canceled since it doesn't boot, I'll release some point releases (1.x) which will include each feature I had previously planned for v2. So within 3 or 4 point releases we'll have what should have been v2. This will help me in debugging. v1.1 is coming today or tomorrow

flashed it but im having philz
many guyz said they lose philz recovery but not im my case
how this is possible then
