Maybe if I figure out why it isn't working, I mean GPU OC code is implemented in the kernel, but it's not working for some reason,
will see what I can do.

I'm not sure about that ether, but the weird thing is that even though the same code (as the one used for Z1) is included here,
you can't even switch GPU to more that 450MHz, I mean the GPU script has all 487.5MHz / 533MHz / 600MHz OCs but they aren't showing up
Tried it with pimp my z1
Didn't work. Specifically it crashes when any setting is changed from stock.
I'm on slimkat.
Running it on the latest CM11 nightly (31/5) and the phone momentarily freezes very shortly after boot before rebooting. Can't say what triggers it because it happens regardless of what I do.
Great work mate. The most important for me is the support for undervolting. Is it included in the kernel?

Yes it is, but you might find it buggy (for now)
@omarainea I have tested (not so much but anyway...) with carbon and resurection roms. RR install was cleaner I hadn´t utilized kernel settings beforkrnel install. Kernel works good, no reboots have changed a lot of settings without problems, on carbon phone reboots all the time but I had changed a lot of settings before kernel install. Later I will try more clean carbon installation with pimpkernel, for now I´m going with RR rom. Great work, thanks!

just did a clean Carbon or RR install, then boot to system, then reboot to recovery and flash the kernel without any wipes, reboot.

By clean you mean doing a factory reset prior?
And would it matter if I wipe partition and dalvik after flashing the kernel?
Also have you tried it with ART? My crashes only happen when I was on Dalvik

By clean install I mean factory reset and format /system prior, and it didn't matter to me whether I wipe dalvik after flashing the kernel or not.
also, now that you're mentioning it, I haven't tried ART on Pimped kernel yet (just Dalvik).

That step is always included in ROM instructions so I'm quite sure I did that. At first I thought the reboots were being caused by undervolting but even when I just changed the read-ahead in I/o settings I still get random crashes.
Hello!
Does the work kernel in the kit SlimRom? If so. I would like to test it!

Nope kit SlimRom is Sony based not cm-based ROM, this kernel is for cm-based ROMs.
if you're looking for a custom kernel for kit SlimRom you can try DooMKernel, I'll release v19 soon, so wait for it and try it

FAQ's
FAQ:
1) Do not use 3rd party init.d scripts! If you wish to use any ask in the thread. I will tell you if you can.
2) How to flash the Kernel?
A: Flash the zip via CWM ... duhhh! :victory:
3) Why only 4 governers ?
A: Too many Governers bloat the Kernel, many are quite similar.
Best Governer for Battery: Conservative
Best Governer for Performance: Smartass2 or Performance
4) Can you add support to turn off one cpu core?
A: You don't need to do it manually, Hotplug governer knows when to turn off one core.
5) Will you overclock more?
A: No, 1.2 Ghz is enough. We wan't stability and not problems.
6) I got X bug, I got Y bug.
A: I will fix it, recreate the problem and give me a logcat. Remember, it may take time and testing to fix a bug since I do not have the device.
7) Will this support CM in future?
A: Ofcourse! I will also be helping in CM development soon.
8) My phone does not enter deep sleep.
A: Some app is constantly waking up your phone.
9) DO NOT USE ANY SET CPU PROFILES! .
A note on How-to report bugs.
Great one buddy. Unfortunately over CM10. will b waiting for CM10 kernel. thanks again.:fingers-crossed:
Great work Buddy :good:. Cud u add the stopbootanimation service at end of script in init.rc so that v can use this kernel for custom bootanimation.:highfive:
thanks
thanks buddy, nice work, all feature sounds great :good:
I particularly like of have only 4 governers which is simple and useful , too much confuse most of the time. :laugh:
thanks again and keep it up :good:
I wish u had kept interactive governer. Anyways, will try this after college.

Good work! Waiting for the anti boot loop kernel support for the angeeks ROM.

@Adi_Pat: To make the kernel compatible with CM10, do the followings:
1. Implement vibrator fix. (https://github.com/epsylon3/android...mmit/720914d5009039d3ba9898361eea1ad8ab09d326)
2. Add raw KXTF9 accelerometer sensor. (https://raw.github.com/epsylon3/android_kernel_samsung_i9103/gingerbread/drivers/input/misc/kxtf9.c Put it into drivers/sensors, modify Makefile and KConfig accordingly and enable it in defconfig.)
3. Take the ramdisk.
You don't have to compile two different kernels for the two roms, only change the ramdisk. The kernel works quite well in hybrid mode with the modifications included.
Also, if you have time please include these patches into your kernel. I'd really appreciate them. Thanks!

Kernel flashed, will be back with rapport
Unlock 2.7ghz I write as (maybe) future user of Z Ultra one
Hi Folks
It`s to silent in the compact forums thats why I response.
First this is a awesome Kernel, I have been running it today with default settings. Incredible 2.4GHz result in considerably faster starting of big apps, the Phone didn`t heat up at all , battery drain is slightly increased and I haven`t had any crashes. I`m realy impressed.
Thanks a lot Omeira.
Maybe someone would like to share recommended settings for good battery or performence, I don`t know all this new govenors.

I have enabled 2.4GHz and if it's stable enough I can enable 2.7GHz if anyone's interested
there will be no DT2W feature so don't piss me off by asking about it

How about 3ghz?
source can be found here:
https://bitbucket.org/morfic/trinity_five
i got it to work on my N5, and it worked pretty well.
I think 3ghz is too much, but if u unlock it and made ultra version i will try it on my phone (phablet ) to see how stable it will be on 3ghz (power is coming )
I think is better place for now to write what i wrote in zu pimped thread

If i,can i have small request: row i/o as i tried most possible set ups on pimped and nightmare on 2 first cores and pegasusq on two remaining + row on internal and vr on sd is the best (at least for me) <-- and im just missing row scheduler (however its possible that i didnt find it in ur thread)

However for more safe work on 3.0ghz u would need to add some steps like 2.5, 2.6, 2.8, 2.9. That way it will not jump so much in one moment (from 2.4 to 3 or form 2.7 to 3)

Yes I think 3.0GHz is too much as well, though I might try to include it later
and @ch3mn3y,, sure, I'll add adding ROW I/O to the to-do-list, and BTW I have made a build of this kernel for togari,
do you wonna test it? , cuz if the kernel is doing fine on togari, I'll start supporting it as well
Regards,
Omar.
send it. sure i will test it. it wont burn my phone
PS. Its based on c6833 or c6806 (like most kernels)? As they are lte versions and other can use it as well

i'll build a kernel for togari with 3ghz oc when i have my computer back.
i'll do a pull-request then if its half-way stable.

Yeah it doesn't work using PimpMyZ1 app on amami as weel (that happen after adding 2.4GHz OC),
though it works using any other app, and you know what,
PimpMyZ1 is out-dated so you'll have to use another app to have control over all features this kernel has,
I believe PimpMyZ1 gives FC if you try to Control CPU voltage because this kernel contains 268MHz step, which never existed on pimped

I believe I didn't give you a link for Honami's build of this kernel!
did you try flashing the zip from this thread?
or someone else gave you a link to honami's build?
cuz it's usual to have the brick you had if you flash a kernel for amami on honami
Regards,
Omar.
Do you know any other app with per core governor support?
Sent using C6833 - Carbon KitKat/Pimped Z1 Kernel
I just tried the amami version. Because somewhere here I read something about Z1 U which is nearly the same hardware. I just wondered because Z1 C has another CPU. So I gave it a try. ?

I am NOT resposible for any damage done to your device, your neighbor, or any other things you like/hate.
Introduction:
This is my first kernel for any Android device. I created it because I want to get the best out of my device. It initially started with some optimizations regarding SaberMod 4.9 compatibility but I tought why not optimize it even more.
About:
This Kernel is based on the official CM12 kernel, therefore it should work with any Rom using the stock CM kernel too (Like Carbon and Liquid). I run it together with Carbon here, all tests I do will also be done using Carbon. The Kernels features will get more with time
Features and Commit History:
Check 2nd Post!
Installation Instruction:
THIS DOES ONLY WORK ON UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER!
When you're on CM/a CM based Rom:
Flash the zip file in recovery
When coming from Stock:
Flash the boot.img included in your ROMs zip file using fastboot. Flash a CM based Rom then and flash the Kernel zip file again as the Rom overrides the Kernel.

You don't know how long I've spent F5'ing the Z3C development page lol.
Also
This is my first kernel for any Android device.

Don't believe this man, he does great work with kernels on other Xperia devices!
I find it odd though that the kexec page address value for the Z3C differs from the Z3 and Z2 -- got any explanation on that? (My first guess would be that's because it has less RAM but I'm tired and pretty sure that's wrong.)
Great Work man
First of all, thanks a bunch for all your hard work @Myself5!!
Our Z3Cs need a serious kernel, feel like this could be it. I've noticed you uploaded 2 different V6 versions for Z3Cs - normal and permissive? Could you explain the difference?
Thanks again for all your input, and happy flashing everyone.

Permissive has SELinux mode set to permissive (for usage with XPosed), while the normal one has the stock SELinux Settings, being Enforced.

Thats totally correct. The Z3C has 2GB RAM compared to the Z2 and Z3 having 3GB. Hence the Positions needed for the kernel inside the RAM Banks are different too -> Different Kexec Hardboot value.

So if I'm planning to use Xposed I need to flash the permissive version is that right?

Just Flashed m5 kernel (release version)
works perfectly.
Thanks for all your hard work
Tested on PAC Rom. Working good! Seems to be a little more battery consuming compared to stock CM kernel.
I thought so to, but am gonna give it a day or so to settle. Much faster/responsive tho, apps etc are opening a lot faster so is browser imo

Have you tried latest cm with it's own kernel? bcs m5 permissive kernel works with nightly from May 19
Just a question about xposed and selinux. I'm running a stock 5.0.2 with xposed on my phone, selinux status set to enforcing. Why is permissive needed with cm and this kernel? Just curious.
Kernel and last cm 23/05 not work god.
Hello!
I've got the latest cm nightly ( 24.05.2015 ), with latest M5-Kernel-V6-L. I think everything works fine, the system speed little bit faster then the cm's kernel. The processor cores using are better. In stand by, it's uses only one core, not two core like cm. But! With M5 kernel, wifi doesn't work. I can't run it. If i turn it on, nothing. It's doesn't find any wifi. And it's going back to off... Am I the only one with that error? I doesn't try M5 kernel before.. I missed something? I'm not at home, but if I arrived, I can make a Logcat if it help.

Yes WiFi lost here.
6.1 is coming
Compiling and uploading 6.1 ATM. No changes exept the merge of the CM Upstream branch. 6.1 is now working with the latest CM Builds.
Also it's the first fully automated build on my jenkins setup (using the fileserver as a host and my friends homeserver as the buildserver) so don't be confused if the Kernel build host is "[email protected]", thats my friends server. The Automation allows me to upload a new Kernel version faster in case of a CM upstream change.
Regards and Happy Flashing
Changelog is live
I just updated the Second Post, It now includes a Full Changelog, and therefore a Feature List too.
Have fun with it
I seem cannot set minimum CPU freq, it keeps turning back to 1958 MHz using kernel adiutor, trickster, and any app :/

LONG TERM SUPPORT :-
This kernel will be supported for a long time with updates directly streamed from CM kernel sources i . e . as long as CM keeps publishing updates to Motrola's Kernel, this kernel will also be updated.
Further, I will also be personally adding features to this kernel along with tweaks and optimizations as and when needed.
DOWNLOADS :-(do not mirror my links)[ Latest Version ][ Older Versions ]
TEST BUILDS with OC & UV :-These builds contain the following extra features ( when compared to normal /stable builds ) :-
CPU OC to 1593.6 MHz
CPU UC to 96 MHz
CPU UV hardcoded and can't be changed
Associated RamDisk changes
Since OC will not work without associated ramdisk changes, hence test builds are available as boot images rather than anykernel zips.
Now there had been reports of bootloop with blisspop & rr roms and certain other roms. I looked into this and found out that even though they are based on cm kernel, their ramdisk sizes are different, hence bootloop on using boot.img but no bootloop on using anykernel zip ( since, anykernel works irrespective of ramdisk size).
Now it is highly unfeasible to build a boot.img for every different rom and upload them separately. Hence, I have decided NOT to include OC/UC in the stable builds.
Hence these images will only work on aosp and cm13 roms.[/I] Any rom having ramdisk size different than that of official cm13 or official slim(aosp), will not be supported. Hence no support for OC in rr/bliss.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS :-
Reboot into recovery.
Make a nandroid BackUp.
Select Install zip from SD Card.
Select the Downloaded zip (different builds are present as an option in AROMA).
Then Reboot to System.
RECOMMENDED APPS FOR KERNEL TWEAKING :-
Kernel Adiutor
Faux123 Kernel Enhancement Pro
I do not support any other apps.

... flashed this kernel - and works like a charm!
Thanx!
As a POSITIVE side effect after flashing this kernel, my LTE connection stays as stable, as I had it never before:good:

There are certain commits which improves and stabilizes cellular connectivity.
It works very well!
The overclocking is overvolting the CPU? Or it just changes the frequencies?

It's using more voltage. Look here.
Speed and stability are amazing but Camera app can't find the camera anymore. Any advice?

Also any suggestions on best TCP settings for speed?

You shouldn't face any issues with camera, which ROM are you on ??
For TCP try Westwood.
Hello,
Will be possible to make it for CM12, if I install, the camera stops to work, the rest work perfectly.

This kernel is strictly for marshmallow based roms only.
However if you want to use it on lollipop based roms try an older version.
You can download it HERE.

Will give that a go. From what I could see yesterday this version worked fine with Lollypop apart from the camera.
Edit
Seems that kernel won't run the processor any faster than 787.
Is there any chance of updating to include over clock or modding current version to work with Lollypop camera?

No.
I'm kinda curious, the title says Moto G, but will this work for Note 1 running CM13?

Are u serious? Of course it won't.
Hello,
The kernel is broken, with last nighty.
In cm13 was updated the Wi-Fi , now if I install the kernel Wi-Fi is inoperative.

what is Kangaro spectrum injector
and what perfboost conf. do
plz clarify
Did you solve Huaxing panel problem because it was still in version 3.0 If you no longer take a consideration!

Spectrum injector is for the old GSIs, nowdays not really necessary. Perfboost fw config is EAS compatible config for the perfboost fw.

Huaxing should work.
In the 2.6 version, this is not a problem, but other current kernels are still going black screen issue

what do you recommend as cpu gov. for 3giga ram whyred varient for optimum battery and performence without overclocking
works on miui?
Non UV versions are up, flash if you experience random freezes.

different thing. undervokt is voltage of cpu lowered so it consumes less power.. if too low it will reboot or freeze phone . if so flash the zip that says non UV
OC overclocked cpu get higher frequencies ..

Man you should've made non uv zip long time ago. I was having bootloop on your kernel since v2.0. If you would have made non uv verison back then. We would not have bootlooo problem. Everything is working perfectly now. No reboots.
One request can you make a ramdisk zip for setting schedutil governer as default like in insigniux where flashing it will make schedutil default cpu governor
