Hi. Firtecy Mr. have not build kernel LG SU660 are no? Thank Mr.
Firtecy Kernel #6
Hello,
I would like to know if there is any chance of Firtecy Kernel #6 because it was mentioned some months ago that it is in test phase.
Could you please tell me more about the progress of the Firtecy Kernel #6?
Thanks Firtecy!
I'm not an advanced user so don't mess around will kernel settings. Will the default settings in your kernel give compatible ROMs better performance over Kowalski's older kernel?

It seems to me that this thread is dead. Maybe, no one knows.
Anyway, if you want to know which kernel is the best one, you must try all of them. I have already tried m1 and 3.1 and in my humble opinion I think that the m1 is much better.
But if you are talking about the "default" 3.1 exp. kernel by Kowalski and modified 3.1 Kowalski kernel by Firtecy there are significant improvements in Firtecy version of that kernel. It has got better performance and more options to "customize" the kernel.
I would recommend you to test this kernel for a week and you will see if it fulfills your requirements or not. Also do not forget to read the whole discussion thread where are mentioned some tweaks and optional settings.

Hey, thanks for the reply!
I think I'll try Firtecy's latest with the 32MB ramhack next time and check out the thread for tweaks like you said. Seems like it was last updated August 2014 while Kowalski's was last updated end of January 2014.
I do like the M1 and lots of people say it's better. I recently discovered that Google Play Music works on 3.1 though, and it barely works on M1 at all. That was the final thing that made me decide on 3.1 going forward. I don't think I've ever got wifi tether to work on 3.1 though, so I'll miss that.

SIM toolkit is not available
Hi I have downloaded and installed carbonrom on my redmi 1s mobile and its really very smooth and fine. Ihave facing some issues:
1. Mobile Data connection is not establishing
2. Missing sim tool kit
I have tried all the solutions for installing sim tool kit but unfortunately still its unable to install.\
Can you provide a stk.apk for this custom ROM and a brief tutorial for installing into system directory.

Hi,
Redmi Note is MTK based device hence expect least development over such devices has MTK Based Chipset Development is least due to fact that no Kernel sources and MTK are not developer friendly whereas Redmi 4G is Qcom based device hence developer friendly but until sources release its still long way to go
Not yet

Do not use powersave.
On demand - less responsive, saves more power.
Interactive-more responsive, uses more power.
In relative terms only.
Use the one you like.

PS: Belated happy b'day
where is download link ?
Using Mokee ROM, i have a VERY SLOW charging 4-5 hours from 20% to 100% .Is it due to ROM or Kernel? In MIUI ROM i had like 2- 2.5 hours charging time.
i got no signal after flashing this one. i forgot that this is not compatible for aosp roms. am i right?

Hi titan people!
This is my modified kernel with some kernel optimizations and some compiler optimizations.
The goal of abyss is to achieve improved performance/battery without the cost of stability.
I will not be overhauling this project with changes that are not logical to add.
This kernel should work on the latest 7.x.x and maybe 6.x.x roms like CyanogenMod and any other AOSP based rom.
Source links lead to my falcon source because they share the same source
How does one achieve such a compromise?
- build kernel with an optimized toolchain
- use compiler optimization flags (experimental)
- remove redundant code
- improve existing code with more efficient code
- reduce/increase speed of timers (depends on what type of function)
- etc. (most are not easy to explain)
This kernel is built with Linaro GCC 4.9.4 that is optimized for Cortex A7 processors.
Is there actually a performance improvement?
With all the changes added up, there should be. Whether or not one notices the difference is another thing.
Personally, I do feel the performance difference. It is easier to notice the difference with lower level specs like ours.
For those interested in how the kernel optimizations will benefit/work, please look at my github source and read the commit messages.
For those interested in how the compiler optimizations/hacks will benefit/work, please look at this article.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Is this a custom kernel?
I was asked this question once, and it posed as a real good question. I do not consider abyss kernel to be a "custom kernel" per se, but more so as a modified kernel. The patches and features that go into this kernel do not make it customizable. What they do is improve what has already been implemented. It is like swapping a car's engine for a better one rather than just adding LED flooring lights and fancy car mats.
Can you add [this] and [that] feature?
Something I pride myself with this kernel is that it does not have a bunch of random, useless features or patches mashed into it. Everything put into this kernel is thought out well and tested. I see a lot of works being made popular because it has [this] and [that] feature when really, it's nothing revolutionary. As a matter of fact, most things added to any kernel will not make it 5x better than any other kernel. Most of the time, simple is better; and in this case it definitely is!
First
I'll test
Do you have any preferred settings to tweak the kernel or does it come tweaked out of the box? Thank you.

Everything is good to go after flashing. The most you could do is increase the Read-ahead size to 258kB or 384kB but there's really no point; it won't do much.

As you kindly allow some non-development/off-topic discussion I´d like to ask a question about kernel flashing.
You write in your installing explanation
Boot into TWRP recovery
(If you're coming from a different kernel, dirty flash current ROM)
It´s a thing I often heard before. As an example: When I´m coming from a different kernel (I flashed a custom rom and then changed the kernel) and want to go back to the "stock" one why isn´t it enough to unzip my custom rom and flash the boot.img inside?
Where is the difference to dirty flash the whole rom?
Thx in advance.

Your question is not even close to what I mean when I say off-topic :highfive: (it is on-topic). Some kernel developers add scripts, patches, ramdisk modifications, etc in their zips to tune different types of values. The easiest way to get rid of all of that is by dirty flashing the rom, which replaces the /system partition and ramdisk with fresh ones from the dirty flash.

Thx for your fast reply and good to know that my question was on topic.[emoji6] Some devs are very delicate when someone hijacks their thread.
Your answer declares the other files, that can be found in some flashable zip kernels.
Is there something to pay attention of when dirty flashing the same ROM again? Ok,don't wipe data is a clear thing but I think of unmounting partitions etc to don't mess up.

The Roms updater script will mount the partitions it needs. Just make sure after flashing that you wipe cache and dalvik/art cache. Most gapps have a backup script that prevent it from being removed during dirty flashes. If your gapps are retained, you know you've done it correctly.

If someone (a friend oft mine or my cat, not me!) [emoji41] has deleted this backup script because he thought he doesn't need it anymore I think he has to flash gapps again too?

Yes you will need to flash gapps again. Make sure that if you still have the backup script to not reflash gapps because I've had conflicts with that before. Not very fun.

Well you should choose:
Decipher: stable,enough features, battery.
Egg: Stable, no extra features, performance.
Performance is much better with egg than decipher.
But in terms of battery, decipher is the clear winner.
I've been using the egg kernel for a few days now with cm13 and it's good enough for me.
Performance is really good. I don't really care about the battery as I always have a charger with me always so I don't really mind.
Overall, egg kernel is pretty good.

How does one get people to not do something in a thread? Back in the older days, that would be by writing something boldly in the OP. Guess that does not work anymore.
Honestly, you can do whatever the heck you want anywhere else, just not in my thread where I have my posting guidelines set.

Hi guys. This is a high performance Kernel with over 100000+ score in Antutu Benchmark. Found on an Indonesian website. Works for Global stable/beta and China stable/beta ROMs. Bootloader should be unlocked. If in case you get bootloop, flash boot.img from fastboot rom. Install through TWRP.

This is one of the first kernel guys wich is available for RN3P SD (check the video and kernel upload date). You can found in any kernel thread on the first pages. Only the old Antutu app get 100k+ points. After the kernel released, the devs fixed the Antutu and went back to 70-80k. By the way I used this kernel for a lot of weeks without a problem, but the newest releases are better.
After all I think we dosen't need an other unusefull thread. If the user dosn't follow the forum... So I suggest to delete any OP this...
this is a share,move to general section else this thread will be closed because it ain't following gpl.(and in some cases banning too)
Thread closed until source link is posted with the download link.
