Introduction/About
Got an old unused zenfone 5 from my brother and I've compiled this kernel because i'm not satisfy with some of the available kernel so far. Nothing fancy, just a (hopefully) stable kernel for stock lollipop or custom rom based on stock lollipop.

Features:
Like i said, nothing fancy lol. Things that i've modified/added:
Updated interactive cpu governor and fine tuned its parameters.
Enabled conservative cpu governor and disabled userspace cpu governor.
Added zendecision cpu hotplug helper.
Updated cfs scheduler.
Added bfq disk io scheduler and made it as default on booting.
Enabled all tcp congestion control and made westwood as default on booting.
Added power efficient workque support. Should help with battery life.
Added quick wakeup driver support. Should help with battery life.
Added async fsync support. Should help with battery life and perfomance.
Enabled joystick game controller support.
Enabled usb serial driver support.
Enabled zram driver support and made it use 256mb on booting. Should help with perfomance.
Enabled powerclamp and rapl driver for intel thermal daemon support. Should help minimize heat.
Enabled ntfs driver with read/write support.
Enabled cifs and smb network drive driver support.
Added exfat-nofuse filesystem driver support with proper automount on booting.
Enabled zenmotion dt2w support.
Made selinux mode as permissive on boot. This fixed the dreaded signal loss issue.

I hv been using this kernel since yesterday noon..
Till now i haven't faced any kind of reboots and freeze issues..
But the "ondemand" governor makes the device Lag a lot...i am using either interactive or performance(preferably)...
Its also Good that u didn't enabled dt2w in this kernel, please don't enable it in the kernel since i want zenmotion only for sleep, our zenfone 5 has both of the options combined unlike other zenfones...
Also, a feature suggestion, if possible, try to lower the min brightness value to 2-3 , just like the ryanjms07's kernel...
Good job.!

weird that you're the second person that said to me not to add dt2w. i'm actually debating whether to add it or not myself, its a nice feature to have. probably will add it along with sysfs toggle for user to turn it off if dont want it. yes the ondemand lag abit, will change to interactive on next kernel. he doesnt give his kernel source so i dont know how he lower the brightness.
super. class. well done. continue in the same spirit

I am able to change the dpi without any issues...
U can try using ,in terminal emulator,
su
wm density ___
Where ___ will be the density value, like 120,240,320 or any desired value...
After this, u can try nomone resolution changer app from play store.
@mdfzhi , do you know if you can overclock the gpu or cpu for this device? others devs tried but is kinda like a "fake" one, becouse it dosn't affect performance, if we put like 444444.4444ghz it will run fine, so you think is possible?
day use, the kernel reboots no good .but very heated cpu I used the governor ondemand.
does this phone have isssue with signal for anyone? i lived in area where mobile signal arent very good. seems like after singnal loss, something is keeping the phone awake and made it super hot. same issue when i'm still using stock 5.0 rom and kernel. does anyone know if any rom or kernel solve the issue? i could examine ramdisk in kernel that solve the issue and see what changes were applied in it.

No freeze at all?
ondemand on the profile and even interactive games are very heavy lag and delay necessary to put a performance profile
I really2 love this kernel because of its features that no other kernel has, but there is a problem that my sdcard can't detect, i have to revert back to boret's kernel to fix sdcard, please fix this cause i really love this kernel
.Very noted here that it makes it difficult, if my first simkarty is 3g mode and enable data transfer, I switched to the second slot, and includes data transmission and 2g network after some time returns the data back to the first slot and turn on 3g and transfer data will no longer work until you restart the phone really interfere with this because I have to switch modes and simkarty
@mdfzhi
Its almost been a week and now i found some issues:-
1.Freeze occurs sometimes (Like once in 2 days)
2.Battery drain is really more as compared to stock kernel (i did compared it with one day usage).
3.Network comes reallllly verrrry late after booting.
4.Frequent loss of network and never regains back...
5.Data never works sometimes, needs to reboot device in order to work (Airplane mode doesnt work for it)
6. Same issue mentioned by @duffi200000
compiled and uploaded new version. hopefully fixed the dreaded signal loss issue. init.d scripts should also working as it should be now. be careful with some roms that put crap tonnes of bloated init.d script. don't came whining about unstable, reboot or freeze if you didnt clean those script. i didn't use any init.d script except supersu daemon script and the kernel is stable so far.
Super will be tested

I have a question is the core run on the kit Kat?
When connecting the USB otg flash card speed of copying files is very low , you can fix
First at all, thanks for your important work.
I really like that the phone has become much more energy efficient at this kernel :good:
But I have two issues:
1. I got reboot when I talking on the phone (Zenmotion is enabled).
2. My phone doesn't detect the memory card.

1.That's why i was telling the dev not to include dt2w.
2.keep ur fone turned on, remove ur back panel, remove and reinsert ur sdcard ,and it will work.

Kernel Update!!
Thunderoar-Kernel 5.0 Codenamed "Angel Beats!"
Fix all issues regarding MTP not working
and random reboot, is this a comeback? xD, i don't know xD
It appears that my kernel uses a lot more memory than i expected,
Possibily some problem with memory patch in the kernel source
The workaround for this problem is you have to increase your disksize
In the kernel adiutor, if it stays at 300mb, it will not enough and cause a problem
Which is stuck or complete crash of device. Recommended size is 500mb or more if
you encountered it again and set swappiness into 60
20/11/2017
Im back guyss, im out for awhile because my current kernel are sucks,
So i got a new phone which is Samsung J5, im developing kernel for the J5 for my
my own use, Not for sharing others because it will hurt my reputation XD,
and from that i learned a lot more about developing a good kernel,
Im goin to update the kernel using newer source, and im able to fix the
MTP and random reboot issues which is make me happy, its going out soon,
So if you guys still usin this device, you can use the new kernel that i will
post soon.
5/7/2017
For those of you who had a booting problem,
the V4.1.1 probably will fix it
3/7/2017
Finally, an actual stable one,
Rebuilt from the newest source from scratch
-V4.1-revived-version
22/6/2017
The new one probably the most stable,
been testing it for a week and so
far no problem or frequent reboot happen or
something like that
7/5/2017
Finally!!! Camera are fixed guys!
MTP functionality is still unconfirmed
Sorry for the long wait ^-^
1/1/2017
I decided to release a maintenance release update cause i found
that the device crash many times throughout all my kernel
and i decided to think about it more seriously and i had made
a maintenance release for you and report me if there still
crash happening on the device
27/12/2016
I wanted to release the kernel a little bit early cause
busy with new year celebration.The latest one is Thunderoar Kernel v2.6
Happy New Year to all of you!! sorry if i'm being too early
18/12/2016
I'm going get the new kernel ready next month which is the new year.
I'm gonna support SM-T113 too next year and continue with it *if it's working*
I'm going to need tester for sm-t113 next year
1/11/2016
enable the usb fast charge using the kernel adiutor app!
Camera are working on the stock kernel but not mine...
The source code for the camera is not exist in the source...
If you wanna connect your device to pc make sure the
USB fast charge is off,if it isn't disabled,you won't able to
manage file on your device through pc

Kernel Update!!
Thunderoar-Kernel 5.0 Codenamed "Angel Beats!"
Fix all issues regarding MTP not working
and random reboot, is this a comeback? xD, i don't know xD
It appears that my kernel uses a lot more memory than i expected,
Possibily some problem with memory patch in the kernel source
The workaround for this problem is you have to increase your disksize
In the kernel adiutor, if it stays at 300mb, it will not enough and cause a problem
Which is stuck or complete crash of device. Recommended size is 500mb or more if
you encountered it again and set swappiness into 60

Quick note on the crashing apps.
T113XXU0APE2: Does not have this issue
T113XXU0APH5: When I use this ROM, than indeed everything goes bananas after booting up the tablet.
Before flashing the kernel I advice to disable all unnecessary services and with that I mean everything with Samsung in the name and also all of the google apps you don't use. It seems that com.google.process.gapps is causing a crash chain reaction so do disable this services as first. I'm using lucky Patcher for disabling services and for those who are unfamiliar with this my advice is to not uninstall an app but first disable it and later when you are satisfied you than may safely uninstall the unwanted app/service.
Bugs
Camera doesn't working
My apps continue to crash in the latest version Also after a Dalvik wipe.

Wanted to ask (not that it's a huge deal) is there init.d support in this kernel?
If so do I need to do anything special to enable it?
Going to go ahead with it anyway and see what happens!

....Nah, it's all good. :highfive: I screwed things up all on my own by getting flash-happy. :crying:
On the plus side: It worked GREAT! :highfive: Thanks so much for putting this together for us tiny-tab users, you did a great job.
Not only did Byron (my T113's name) run smoother and faster than I've seen yet (yay!), but suddenly Mounts2SD had no issues whatsoever. Up till now it's been a supreme struggle to get /sd-ext to mount properly, to be used properly, etc. etc. - but after flashing this kernel, on first boot boom, everything just worked. Without changing anything I'd already done.
Should have just left it the way it was, eh? But noooo, I had to go "try something else" and made a stupid mistake somewhere, and now no combination of ROM / kernel / nandroid backup (meticulously organized and annotated) is booting up. I even lost TWRP for a little bit.... As penance for my sin of wanting "more", I've gotta dig up Odin, go back to stock, and start from scratch.
SO! QUESTION FOR YOU! (OR ANYBODY REALLY....)
When I fire up Odin and restore the official stock ROM (eg from Sammobile or Samsung), does that include the stock kernel too?
If the stock kernel IS a separate file, where should I look? (Your OP for the T116 kernel includes a link for that model, but not OP in here. I'm sure I can find it on my own but right now I'm just whiny.)
Not going to wait for an answer/s before moving ahead, but any response here will serve as documentation for myself and others in future!
(How don't we have a smiley for "pointing finger"? There's at least TWO in Unicode but I'm too lazy to go get it right now....)

The kernel is in the md5 file or in the zip file, named boot.img
That's awesome to know, and came to the same conclusion when stock setup started asking personal questions and wanted a wifi password. Rooting it this very moment, though if I'd waited *just* a little longer I wouldn't have to. Wow you're fast!
That boot.img file info will come in handy when I screw up on any ROM, thanks! This one is going ASAP into a safe and accessible place for "just in case"....
Hey, I've always wondered and maybe you can tell me:
When flashing this type of file in recovery or adb, does the filename matter? If I rename it "T113-[build]-boot.img" for example, will anything go wrong?
Feel free to point me elsewhere to learn more about how these things work, I've followed a lot of guides but want to understand the "why" as well.

I do believe that when flashing a boot.img through TWRP with the image flasher, the file needs to say boot.img I may be wrong but I had issues before when I changed the name of the file to keep track of which one it was....lol... I have since started putting the boot.img files in their own folders with the appropriate name on the folder.
By the way, great to see development on this tablet. I am going to be testing this kernel in a personal build and see if I can squeeze as much out of it as I can get. So thank you dev.. Awesome work and greatly appreciated. : )

So I've run into a bit of a problem. Tried outFyrestone ROM and i love it, but it's based on PH5 firmware and doesn't play nice with your wonderful kernel. Which means my sd-ext is broken...
I know you're very busy (and I haven't a clue what kind of work is required), but wondered if you know when we can expect to see an update?
Thanks so much for all your hard work!

I get it, it clutters things s bit. But I am one who like an organized setup anyways so adding more folders is common for me. It may not be everyone's cup of tea so to speak.
But on my PC and in my external SD , on my tablet, I have a folder named tab "what ever", then inside there are folders named mods, ROMs, kernels and then gaops. In the kernel folder I have sub folders for just this reason and those folders will have the kernel name on it and then inside will be the standard "boot.img"..
It works for me and above all, works for TWRP.

My apologies for not being more clear on what exactly 'frightens' me about this idea. There have been times when I've backed things up this way and couldn't get into them again because of the number of characters in the path and file name - they were just too long!
Mind you, this was tens of years ago on WinXP and it never occurred to me to try finding a fix.

That's a fantastic system, very similar to the one I'm now using, and will add new folders as you've suggested. Hopefully reading this will benefit those who are new to this world so they don't wind up with folders full of mysterious files and untagged backups for various devices, that made perfect sense at the time. (Like the one folder for my first few devices, which now looks like gobbledygook....)
Lollipop ROM for T113 (Samsung Tab 3 lite "7 wifi-only)
Topic:
Lollipop ROM for T113 (Samsung Tab 3 lite "7 wifi-only)
Is there any lollipop/marsmallow/Nougat ä ROM that works in my T113 (Samsung tab 3 lite "7)? This device runs natively Android 4.4.4, but I Really need Android 5 or higher! Lollipop would do just fine.. I took a look at most popular custom roms to this device, but most were 4.x.x.. And nothing for t113! And all of those were to T221 or so, in the list they're were few supporting T110/T111, but now T113. Does those work in this T113? Isn't it just same device?
Please tell me if you have any idea of rom with Android 5 or newer that works in this T113!
It would be awesome to have Lollipop-Slimrom or Resurrection remix with Android 5/6/7..
Even Stock Lollipop would be adequate, android 4 lacks important features...
There's many roms to this device, but they are for T2XX or T110/T111... Does any of those run in t113?
I have already rooted this tablet and installed TWRP.
Thank you so much for help in advance! Any information that gets me closer to have Lollipop or newer is very very much appreciated!
Sincerely,
tatu-o aka. mlc

It varies, sometimes when flashing thing through adb or recovery with filename had a space in it, it would not detect it cuz the name is spaced and separated and it didn't recognize it as a file cuz the file extension doesn't connected to the name cuz it separated/spaced.

Good to know! I've had so many issues over the years, with spaces in filenames, that any renames for files like this get an underscore or dash instead of spaces. Helps in lots of other ways, too.
Veno Kernel for Huawei HI6250 devices
Note: I'm waiting for Huawei to release new kernel sources with Nougat, until then I'll focus on fixing any bugs people find. New features will come with Linux 4.1.
The goalTo provide better battery life and more smoothness to your everyday experience, but without sacrificing one in the name of the other (so no +smooth/-battery tweaks and vice versa).
Maybe some extra features? I don't know, I hate unnecessary bloat that provides nothing to everyday user (or even developer).
Okay, so what's in?
Based on latest Huawei VNS sources from January 2017
Turns out newest sources are unstable, I rebased the kernel on 2016 release
Patched to 3.10.105 upstream
Built using Linaro 6.3 toolchain
DM Verity disabled
UKSM 0.1.2.6 (backported from Linux 4.0)
BFQ I/O scheduler
ROW I/O scheduler
Thunderplug hotplugging driver*
Dynamic Fsync
AnyKernel2 package! Compatible with any ROM except stock newer than B336.
For full list of changes see here.
* - Thunderplug is out for now, as it made the device unstable
Installation
Make sure you have TWRP installed
Create backup of your current boot
Flash the zip package (it will modify your boot instead of flashing entire boot.img)
Reboot and enjoy! Look below for how to use additional features
THAT'S A LOT OF CHANGES, BUT I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M READINGA quick ELI5 then:
Patched to 3.10.105 upstream
Newer source = less bugs and better kernel in general.
Built using Linaro 6.3 toolchain
Kernel has extra ARM optimizations and phone is faster/has better battery life.
DM Verity disabled
Big brother won't know that you have fiddled with root.
UKSM
More free RAM and less CPU load, so MORE RAM, PERFORMANCE AND BATTERY LIFE.
BFQ I/O scheduler
ROW I/O scheduler Schedulers
With default settings phone will run smoothly even when you're playing FLAC music, compressing 10 archives of 5GB of music and banging your gf (I can't actually know that)
Dynamic Fsync
When you're using the phone, it cares more about your smooth experience than writing data to disk, so the system seems more responsive.
AnyKernel2 package
Can install on top of anything, Huawei is upgrading to kernel 4.1 with EMUI5 though, so flashing might be going backwards (this is 3.10), at least until they release new sources.

20170406
Rebased on older, more stable Huawei sources (from 2016, everything else is the same)
Removed some of the debugging stuff from the kernel
Enabled Huawei hotplugging driver (it appears to only control big cores tho?)
20170405
UKSM patched to v0.1.2.6 again
Enabled/Disabled a lot of stuff in defconfig
Disabled mostly debugging stuff, which should result in slightly faster kernel.
Enabled a lot of USB drivers (so most stuff should work with Host Mode, if anyone ever uses that)
Enabled some missing Huawei code from older kernel sources, which I believe caused lowmem killer to go haywire, causing heavy apps to randomly close (I tested this one a bit, apps like Snapchat seem to no longer close, can never be sure)
20170404 - BUGFIX attempt
Rolled UKSM back to v0.1.2.3, should help with apps closing without any error
20170330
Removed Thunderplug, as it was causing freezes and bootloops (Huawei HMP doesn't like to have cores offline apparently), system should be stable now
Hotplugging will most likely return, with different driver or when Huawei releases 4.1 kernel sources.
My birthday release, yay, have a stable kernel everyone
20170329
Fix multiple lcd_notify calls
Protect against some hotplug race conditions
Run Thunderplug in per-core mode by default (gotta save the energy!)
Dynamic Fsync (ported to lcd_notify)
Fixes to backported UKSM (possibly fixes binder errors, apps not opening until reboot)

Yes, I'm running it on LOS 14.1 right now.
If somebody could test it on stock and EMUI5 ROMs (just for the heck of it, keep backup) I'd be grateful.

Installed succesfully on L31 running Resurrection Remix nougat. I will try for a few days and report back feedback
Will try it on EMUI 5 as soon as I have time.. very happy to see our device is getting devs' attention, keep up the good work!
Good afternoon. Your modification will work on EMUI 4 ?
thank you
upd.: on EMUI 4 it worked

Hello
I have tested on vns-l31c636b361 (nougat), it does not start blocking your device is booting now ....
(I think I forgot the root)
I will re-try with but I get it with dload c636b170.
New try, l31c636b170 (emui 4) + twrp meticulus, ok :good:
Flashed it more than a day ago, working great on LineageOS 14 (VNS-L31), yet to find any issues...
Wat does it really do haha? Saw "whats in" but dont really know what that means hahaha.

It's something I'd like to do at some point, but there are very few governors which are properly adapted to octacore devices and none so far worked out of the box with Huawei kernel. I'm keeping my eye mostly on ElementalX and Impulse, but they'll need changes to even compile.
For now stick with interactive, next release with thunderplug enabled by default will bring better battery life.

20170329 release
New release is out! Note that I wasn't running on a new build for very long, so issues might still surface, keep a watch on this thread.
Changes:
Fix multiple lcd_notify calls
lcd_notifier call was implemented in wrong section of Huawei LCD driver, oops.
Protect against some hotplug race conditions
Stability fixes mostly, based on ThunderZap kernels.
Run Thunderplug in per-core mode by default (gotta save the energy!)
Due to how scheduling works in Huawei kernel, it might keep one or two big cores up after heavy load, but should be fine once the screen is turned off.
Dynamic Fsync (ported to lcd_notify)
I moved Dynamic Fsync (thanks faux123) to lcd_notify to avoid kernel bloat from powersuspend or earlysuspend (which are not present in the kernel).
Fixes to backported UKSM (possibly fixes binder errors, apps not opening until reboot)
My derp in commiting changes might have caused critical fail in Android Binder, which resulted in random reboots and new apps not opening. Tell me if anyone encounters it.
Overall this release should bring much better battery life and smoothness to the system (mostly thanks to dyn fsync).

Settings crash, dialer crashes when dialing any number after flashing latest release.
Anyway to unflash, or fix this? I didn't do a twrp backup prior to this, but I did do a cache/dalvik wipe after flashing.
Will a factory reset fix this? Or maybe just wipe /system in twrp?
I'm running stock b170 on vnsl21, meticulus twrp, rooted with magisk. I also have systemless xposed installed, maybe there's a conflict?

Ask someone for stock boot.img or extract it from huawei image.
Also logs, I need logs.

So then, would a fastboot flash boot boot.img work to uninstall the kernel?
edit: I was just about to instal catlog to provide logs, while going for another round of dalvik/cache wipe and guess what - it seems everything is ok now. Will keep you posted if any issues arise.

Yes, that's how you flash kernel images. Also keep backup next time.

Also a question if I may. Would this kernel provide any benefits over the stock one if I don't install Kernel Adiutor and change any of the settings - basically just flash it and forget it?
edit: 2 questions if you could be so kind as to indulge me.
Does this modify haptic feedback? As it seems to me - either that or I'm crazy - that keyboard haptic feedback is different after flashing this. It's weaker and a little strange (?), however, navbar haptic feedback and other vibrations seem to be the same as with the stock kernel.
Thanks for your time
further edit for feedback: The fingerprint sensor is a bit iffy now. It's considerably slower sometimes, and generally slower and doesn't always vibrate on unlock, like 9/10 times it doesn't vibrate.
I flashed today's build and I noticed that only one core was active, and I can't turn on more than 4 cores so I can basically use 2 little and 2 big cores. Is this as it should be expected?

NOTES
1. Use AR_Beast Adiutor to apply settings(prebuilt in kernel zip)
2. Always turn on Apply on Boot and set Delay to 10 seconds or more
3. Always turn on Emulate Init.d option in Kernel Adiutor.
4. If you are facing WiFi/Hotspot issue then check whether your system partition has atleast 20mb free then reflash kernel or Extract wlan.ko from the .zip of kernel (located under system/lib/modules/) and place it in root/system/lib/modules/ overwriting the one already present there. Then, set the permission of the file to rw-r-r and reboot the phone. Use ES File Manager with Root Permission to do this.
5. Facing splashloops(loops on yo logo) then clean flash your rom or wipe data/cache/dalvik-cache
6. Don't use any hotplug along with core control or quad core mode if you wanna use hotplug then disable corecontrol and quad core mode. You can use Core control along with quad core mode.
PRO Sir!!
Thanks for Oreo Support Bro.,
Can we use it for nougat also ?
Will R9 version Support Nougat?
Please reply me. If not which ROM is preferrable to install? Suggest me.
Has anyone tested if this kernel works fluently with NitrogenOS 8.1 ROM ? Please do confirm as this kernel looks so tempting.
The kernel Adiutor mod is broken. Can u give another link.

bro i am using this rom with my nitrogen os shekhawat 20180208 , it works super fine on nitrogen, trust me u can go with this kernel, everything is working fast and smooth
Wlan.co file is missing from the directory you mentioned. Where can I get that file? My wifi/hotspot does not work. Other than this this kernel works perfectly with nitrogen os 8.1.
thanks .. need the link for auditor mod ?

Wifi and hotspot not working.!!
This feels to be the best and the smoothest kernel that I've used till date, but the wifi and hotspot is not working. No matter what i do, even tried wlan.ko file from another kernel still its not working please help. I am using RR os and even on clean flash it is not working. Please help...
Could anybody please answer my question!!!

Thank you for supporting our Z2 device
Exfat formatted SD Card not working. (Please Fix it ASAP)
Can you add Quick Charge.
Thanks for your work
But I can't see zzmove and Inteliavtive in kernel auditor
Also interactive is default governor
I changed to ondemand because with interactive games becomes laggy and slow

Can you give me the specific adjustment parameters of the auditor? I will not adjust it for the first time, I want to adjust it according to your plan.
Sir, can you send out your kernel-tune version? I found that the kernel tuning downloaded from the Google market is a bit out of tune with the tutorials you sent.:silly:

When I flashed this over a fresh RR7 install, there definitely was no zzmove governor, and the default gov was interactive. How would that be possible?

It's not Quick Charge. QC is different from fast charge And the fast charge is not working properly (700mA-1100mA) this is what I got from the lock screen. I am using Anker 24W power adapter.
Before RR Pie I was using RR Oreo with QC 2.0 mod kernel (https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/development/mod-enable-quick-charge-2-0-t3784333) And The mA rate was 1000-1700.
I flashed the same kernel on RR Pie which I was used in RR Oreo it was successfully booted and Quick Charge worked like on RR Oreo but hotspot and USB Tethering not working so I flashed back to RZ Kernel.
That's why I am asking the developer to add QC 2.0. I know it's difficult but it's possible. Sorry for my bad English. Thank you. @raschad

Im not professional but i tell my settings
With this kernel and aex rom battery life and charging is really good
For extremely saving battery,Conservative Governor is good
I always set it to ondemand for gaming and daily use
With interactive i noticed lag in games
The multicore powersaving option can be set to Aggressive for better battery saving
I also set cpu frequency to 2265 MH,more than this my device getting very high temperature
Another thing,when you wanna play games or heavy apps,make sure all 4 cores is online,i always turn off mpdecision in cpu hotplug section and turn on or off the cores manually because i noticed bad behavior with mpdecision on,or i use another
Hopefully in this kernel mpdecision is off by default

I’m not sure I’m following you there: which “versions” do you mean? v3.5 is the first one for the Z2 you have published here, right? In any case, that’s the version I have got, and the info in the OP refers to that version, doesn’t it?
