Works in CM10 and other CM10-based ROMs.
Philosophy:
- Experimental > may not be stable.
- Based on CyanogenMod's kernel base and built with Linaro 4.7.
- Handpicked performance patches and mods kept to a minimum.
- Interactive governor - the way Google wants us to use Android.
- Bull**** free, no flashy words to induce placebo & no time lost in search for the everchanging "perfect threshold/tunables".
This kernel has been discontinued, I'm now using AOSP stock with thalamus kernel + BLN.

You've write a mistake. Linaro isn't used by Google, because he is juged "instable", Google use her own clone, named Project Butter for JB .
Bln is great feature for nexus, but do you think about adding bld also? Don't think of this as a req or anything, just asking because I love bld, it makes phone so much more elegant, so to now could we expect bld in the future releases.... Thanks mate...

First of all: Thanks for the kernel! Trying it with JB AOSP and seems to be stable (not tried that much yet).
One question: does anybody know a tool to activate CM BLN for an AOSP rom? To make this clear: I'm not asking for integrating BLN into this kernel

Great, thanks! Will try.
EDIT: Installation works, but CM BLN do not work. Trying now CM10 unofficial.
BLN works in CM9, I could've added the version compatible with every ROM but meh. Same goes for BLD and touch wake. I'm somewhat lazy, especially because I believe thalamus will reconsider the BLN feature, thus rendering the side development of this kernel useless.
This kernel is aimed to please a niche: CM and thalamus kernel users who miss BLN. For a full featured kernel perhaps I'll come back when JB is out.
Guys does it work with isc or only jb. Thnx in advance
Installed it on Unofficial CM10 and it's great. Performance is nice and smooth Btw, when i installed the kernel, Ondemand was selected as standard governor, is that in purpose? Thought you wanted Interactive to be standard.
BLN isn't working on CM10, but meh you wrote it in the OP so no big surprise.
Thanks

Yeah, it is overridden in either init.rc or init.herring.rc in the stock rom to ondemand, surprisingly enough.
Even Google know interactive is crap and expensive on crespo, which is why they override it.

I must admit, I'm glad you haven't just taken my nice clean source and filled it with crap though. That would have made me unhappy.
BLN I can cope with, but no, I will never add it to my kernel, unless I choose to rewrite it of course.

Aye, init.herring.rc: "write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor ondemand", line 31.
Even on Jellybean this remains so. I guess they either forgot to change it or there must be a reason to favour ondemand during boot. It just doesn't make sense undergoing through all the trouble to boost and work on interactive, including on Nexus S stock kernel, and then not using it. As for the theoretical higher energy consumption due to the more aggressive ramping, I've been reading reports from Samsung Galaxy Nexus users that are reporting better battery in Jellybean stock kernel with Interactive against custom kernels in ICS. While this may be due to other changes, it certainly doesn't discourage the use of 4.1's Interactive. I also don't believe Google would deliberately and significantly hurt battery performance. I've always defended the position that governor's ramping speed, while an undeniable variable, is also overrated. From my point of view, we can sacrifice 2-4% of higher energy consumption in exchange to a more pleasant and stutter-free experience.
As for the BLN, I do hope you'll include it soon!

Hello community,
This is a build of the Savage-Zen kernel.
I recently became part of the Savaged-Zen team, building, supporting, and maintaining the noSBC version of their kernel.
Savaged-Zen SBC Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=938790
PLEASE READ ENTIRE OP
I recently built a noSBC version of the Savage-Zen kernel. After some thought, I decided that it wouldn't take too much to become the support/builder for these kernels.
I just have a few rules:
Do not bother the kernel devs about the noSBC kernels UNLESS you are having an issue thats inherent to the build
Do not request other versions on this thread. FroYo, SVS, noHAVS, etc. I'm building and supporting two versions only, CFS and BFS noSBC.
I do not own an Incredible so I cannot test these builds. You shouldn't run into any issues because they are built off of the same exact source code as the SBC versions, just without SBC.
Each time a new Savaged-Zen build is released, I will build a noSBC version and update this thread. Remember, the noSBC builds are not built by the kernel developers themselves and they do not support them. I am the support for these versions of the kernels.
Issues inherent to kernel:
If you are ever having an issue, and it's something that is not noSBC related, please post in the official thread. I'm not a kernel developer myself and therefore will not be able to provide support for things inherently wrong with the kernel. If it's a problem in the SBC build, it will be a problem in this build as well. Feel free to report these issues in this thread, but don't expect to get support unless you post in the SBC thread. That should be the only time you are posting noSBC related posts in the SBC threads.
issues with noSBC build:
If you are having issues with the noSBC builds (as in WiFi doesn't work right or something that works fine in the SBC builds doesn't work here), this is when I will provide full support. It's possible that I may make a build error, and I need you to test these. As I said earlier, I do not personally own an Incredible, I simply compile the kernels. If I broke something, please let me know
If you need any kind of help, please feel free to email me at:
[email protected]
I'd be happy to assist!
I hope that you enjoy these kernels and will click ads or donate to the developers as they work very hard to build and support their software. Link is at the bottom of the OP.
Happy flashing!

So can you explain all those acronyms and what the mean and how they affect us? I tried googling, but hoping for a laymen's type of answer, you know dumb it down... SBC, CFS, BFS, etc?
SBC - Superior Battery Charging. Google "trickle charging" for explanation.
CFS - Completely Fair Scheduler. Standard CPU scheduler for Android.
BFS - Brainf*** Scheduler. More recent.
HAVS - Hybrid Adaptive Voltage Scheduling. Voltage drops as CPU speed goes down in order to conserve power.
The BFS version has been updated and should now work. Let me know if there are any issues. Compiling a new CFS version now.
That's the coolest profile picture ever. Friend of the devil is a friend of mine.

So I guess my question is, what is the supposed preference of most? SBC or Non-SBC?
Just wondering what is optimal I guess. Thanks for your response.

It's up to you. A lot of people prefer SBC and trust it. I've been using it since it came out with no issues whatsoever, but some people prefer to use the stock charging system. I think that most people use SBC, but there is still a large percentage that would prefer it without. This is why I provide these builds.
What's nice about SBC is that when you pick up your phone in the morning, it's at 100% instead of dropping down to say 95% right off the bat. It reduces the amount of voltage going into the battery as it gets full and maintains it at a constant voltage.
Try both, see what you like better.
I am opening this thread as I feel there is room for discussion on the amazing Nexus 7 and the incredible Kernels available .. so feel free to post your opinions.
Lets help the newcomers make the appropriate choice (difficult)
Lets talk about
-Performance ( normal usage, gaming..)
-Battery life
-Features
-Device support (internal and external)
-Rom support
-General requests to all devs
At the moment of this writing we can count on
-TRINITY
-MOTLEY
-FAUX123
-STOCK (of course)
-FRANCO
-CLEMSYN'S
-ATLANTIS
-AQUARIA
And the list shall continue and updated
So lets hear your opinions and preferences.
Cheers

I've used stock, cm10's kernel, the faux kernel (briefly), trinity (briefly), atlantis, and _motley's.
I stuck with _motley's. Best kernel I've used on pretty much any device. Superbly fast, linaro-optimized, great voltage tables, incredibly stable, and completely glitch-free
Currently running 1.1.1, undervolted by 100mV, all default clock speeds, interactive/deadline, and a 512MB zRam
Pure butter
Faux's "mainline" kernel releases is a balance of performance and good battery life, undervolted my N7 to -75mV. It's so much better(in my opinion) than the default kernels of stock, cm10 and AOKP. Gaming-wise it's definitely very optimized. I've yet to try other custom kernels. Been a fan of his kernels since from htc one x and now in N7.
Tapatalked from my HOX
I prefer _motley's mostly because I can see most of what was changed/added in the changelog, and it works nicely
Trinity is straight to the point by generally saying what is tweaked, which is nice, but I just like to see what is changed. Also the app for Trinity kernels seemed to show strange behavior when I last used it with settings either not sticking, or changing randomly, but I believe there was a reason for this explained in the thread.
Faux's is nice as well mostly because of the other linux kernel parts used, but doesn't allow for disabling of fsync (while I respect Faux's decision on not allowing the option; I prefer speed over stability) which is pretty much the only reason I don't use it now.

Disabling fsync also saves a decent amount of battery
I just got my N7 four days ago and since I am a flash addict I tried most of them always sticking to the same Rom (EOS) in order to make a fair comparison.
.
I like Trinity very much.. is a no-hassle kernel..but as I was with Faux's magnificent work since the days of the Atrix, I decided to give his newest 008 a shot.
I find it to be well balanced (performance/battery) ..
I have not UVd any. I prefer the dev set of tables and come to a conclusion from his own work.

thanks for the assumptions, but not true. the kernels are always posted at derkernel.com right away, for those with the app and without. all you have to do is look. or, you can opwn the thread and read it from the last page, youd see that a111 has been out. there is never a kernel released for people with the app first, we do not play that game, that is wrong. it either released to all the public or its not released at all, end of story.

Oh, don't take me wrong.. I am not making any assumptions nor suggesting that you have any kind of preference for those who have the app. No Sir. I have the app but at the moment not being used because I am with another kernel.

then its i that made the assumption
anyways, the "all kernels are 1600 except if stated otherwise in the file name" is really for all the other trinity kernels for other devices. i do agree with you though, that morfic should change that since the n7 kernels dont have the cpu speed included in the name except for the tsvz kernels(they are all 1400mhz).

Hello O2X Community,
I am here to announce ARM. which will be on your device! This thread is for you to discuss about which ever kernel specific features you want. Of course, here are the ARM. specific features that will be included:
- Based Official CyanogenMod Sources with ICS Drop
- Dimmed LED for more Battery Life
- Undervolted clock rates for more battery savings
- Deep sleep surpasses minimal clock rate for further sleep savings to increase battery life
- Optional Overclock for performance
- Minor GPU Overclock without increasing battery drain
- Maximum minimum brightness to save battery at night
- Various Phone hardware modules undervolted for more battery life
Compatible with all CM10 Based ROMs
Seeing all of those features, it means that we aim for Power and Performance
Please discuss about how you want us to work on the kernel. Note that a Stock ICS version will be developed after the CM's final version/build.
Note that we do not accept bugs posted right to the thread. Submit it to the github instead.
Github
hey, thanks for your work guys!
here's a list of features i miss from old GB kernels:
- a cpu governor that will disable the 2nd core when the screen is off (basically the hotplug governor main feature applied to interactive/conservative ones)
- a way to let us choose at wich frequency and after how many seconds the 2nd core should turn on and off
- simple i/o (SIO) scheduler
- a slightly ram overclock
- ramhack if possible 0-32-48-64(-80-96)MB (i think it's not atm?)
- every other specific and/or general tweak you can think of
ps: should you open a parallel thread in the dev section?
Make the led light as a notification light
When can we expect these to see running on our phone
Sent from my LG-P990 using Tapatalk 2
Ok. Whatever is said is said, but of course, hotplug wilk be joining in, and pegasusd, since its another power saving governor for dual cores. And RAM hacks are not applicable for ARM.
About tweaks, they will be added.(Of course)
Lastly, I want you to know that its scheduled for January. But I will try my best to complete by New Year's Eve. Lastly, I am finding another developer to maintain this device. Please PM.

thanks for your help and interest, this is going to be awesome!
to add to list of possible features,
not very important, but its nice to have. a option to change the HDMI output. having it working automatically is great. but sometimes i'd like to chose what size a Screen im watching. .. this may be a feature in the rom more so than the kernel im not sure. =P
Tony, i sure will be commiting to CM if i can Now, if you can please help us, PM me, i will add you into git to push. Please inform harsh also
Ok. The timeline has been planned with my team. We will schedule our first build and commit this coming week, and, once we reach a stable build, we move on to a kernel controlling app. Note that before the app is out, you can use AOKP (must be based off CM) to control voltage and etc.
Its almost here. Get ready.

Whoa there are still people here in this forum! Look at the future changelog for r2 I would've preferred adding these to r1 but I don't own a Vivid so other people will have to test those features to make sure that they work.

For jellybean...your gonna want to base the source off this https://github.com/htc-msm8660/android_kernel_htc_msm8660 it contains a lot of fixes that the outdated kangbang source doesn't have...
Btw, great to have another dev around look forward to your work...maybe you can help with the call volume issues since your used to MSM8660 devices...then again our vivid seems to always have unique fixes

Will vouch for android1234567 as i have been using his kernel since the sensation. I guarantee none of you will get rid of the vivid once you feel the full sultan kernel with crossbreeder and frandom support.
will pledge another donation for when it. catches up to tje senny r20.8

I didn't want to use Intervigilium's source because Intervigilium decided to make his source as close to stock as possible. What that means is no voltage control, overclock, GPU overclock, etc., basically nothing unique. Also, since I don't actually own a Vivid, patching that source with all those features would be difficult because I'd have to be testing everything after adding a feature (to make sure that it's working properly and that it boots up).
I also looked at the commit history and there isn't any fix that's crucial or necessary for the Holiday, so there is no downside to using KangBang source. If I find a commit that's interesting in Intervigilium's commit history then I'll just patch the KangBang source with it.

R1 already has frandom support Most of the performance features from my Sensation kernel are in r1, but there are still a few left that I'll have you all test.

so its different to the test3 you sent earlier... thee goo. im server is currently down... either way cant wait.
kernel tuner tells me that mpdecision turns off... knowing the issues with the senny il uninstall it and keep an eye with system panel lite instead
antutu gave me a score of 8192 on your test3 release with 1566mhz cpu

also you probably may want to include the original crossbreeder link to your op as not many kernels support it and not many even knowing about it:

as i'm selling both my sensations, i never really got to try that swap you added.. will read about it in the other thread.. i'm guessing its different or supplementary to the other mod with swap in cache?

Whaaaat Goo.im is down again
The Aroma installer for r20.8 of my Sensation kernel has an option for softswap, however, because I don't have a physical device to test, an Aroma installer is out of the question with this kernel. With an Aroma installer I have to check if the settings will work, which mods work with the phone, the directories for all the settings, etc. Sorry =\
ALSO, all kernels support CrossBreeder but very few kernels support frandom. Frandom makes CrossBreeder much faster; this is feature #5 of CrossBreeder:
idcrisis said:
5. Frandom support - CrossBreeder now supports linking both your random devices to the extremely fast alternative - Frandom ( http://billauer.co.il/frandom.html ). This module is orders of magnitude (10-50 times) faster than the standard character devices ( Check this out - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37409586&postcount=134 ). The erandom character device also installed by Frandom doesn't use up system entropy at all on top of being fast. You will need to ask your ROM developer to develop the kernel module for you and then place it in /system/lib/modules. CrossBreeder will then try and load it and if successful, make all the necessary adjustments so that both /dev/random and /dev/urandom are pointing to /dev/frandom and /dev/erandom respectively. The speed benefits are to be seen to be believed. But since each ROM requires a unique kernel module, this option is left optional ( but auto detect ).

Awesome, love to have another friendly helper to get us some nice new hardware drivers [read: kernel], as we are lacking in that dept right now. So, I am sure I speak for many others, the little Vivid community is very grateful for whatever you can bring to us .

Awesome! I'm trying this out currently. Seems VERY fast! I'll give it a couple days to see what the battery life is like. I am skeptical that we can get THIS much performance increase without battery life going into the toilet, but I'm hopeful anyway.
One thing I was hoping for would be increased in-call volume, which seems to be the same so far. Volume controls still don't affect the vol level in-call. No confirmation on if the echo is gone for the person you're speaking to. I'll update when I find out.
Either way, it's GREAT to have more options Thanks for your hard work, especially considering you don't even have a Vivid!
EDIT: Update - CRT-Off is missing (or excluded)

None of vivid kernel don't have OTG Host support.
it will be great if you add this to your kernel.
i have try to add this to an htc source kernel, it work but some modules like wifi,.. don't work after that (don't have enough knowledge)
HEY GUYS
SOME OF YOU MAY KNOW ME
BUT IN CASE YOU DONT
hi der
ive changed the thread title and stuff because im gonna be posting more than just my kernels here from now on,including test dtb's,test hboots and other things,also making it into sorta a "diary" when i work on things,including post code snippets for when i work with some of the other devs on projects.
working on using kexec to load a custom dtb. i have modified tasssadars kexec tools to support a11. need someone with the know-how to compile it. https://github.com/pattyboi/kexec-tools
working on porting caf 3.10. those interested can find my repo here: https://github.com/pattyboi/3.10-a11/
gonna need help with it. if you know what your doing,hit me up.
Rhinstone features: new thermal (franciscofranco's)
new hotplug (decimalmans autohotplug)
soundcard control,aka boosting and such (zeroblade1984s tamod sound control driver)
bfq io scheduler optimized for emmc/nand storage (khaon)
optimized interactive governor thanks to many people
optimized simpleondemand gpu governor thanks to blechdose
most motorola kernel optimizations
most DKP kernel optimzations (including overlocking the i2c driver subsystem) ((decimal mans gs3 kernel,highly suggested if you have the device))
compiled with the latest sabermod arm 5.1 toolchain with graphite gcc options and tuned for cortex a7
memcpy combined from motorola and hglm's patches (https://github.com/hglm/test-arm-kernel-memcpy/)
removed A LOT of debug,including most htc debug and sensor self tests or useless functions
adreno idler (arter97)
uksm with all of the dkp optimizations
some upstream linux kernel updates to misc parts of the kernel
cache & neon updates (xboxfanj)
built in fast charge (alim.p)
con kalivas linux tweaks
many other misc code optimizations that would clutter the op,the kernel is fast in my opinion,and battery life is much better than standard kernel,i will be reimplementing f2fs and exfat soon..kernel was rebased and forget to pull them in
BIG THANKS TO: everyone. especially those inside my thread who have kept people from getting confused while using the kernel and also @protectivedad who created the flashable wifi zip. also a huge shout to the android community and all the devs i havent thank in the other part of this post
IVE ONLY TESTED ON MY CRICKET MODEL.
DO NOT FLASH IMMEDIATLY,"fastboot boot "release-date".img",if all goes well and you have no issues then run "fastboot flash boot "release-date"img" to permanetly flash it,THEN YOU NEED TO FLASH THE WIFI ZIP,just flash it through twrp,thx to @

hi der
so,as everyone knows,this phone is FAR from a perfomance monster ATM...(big things are coming)
and everyone knows cm has the camera issue,which is keeping alot of people back from using it
so for everyone on stock,heres my kernel,rhinstone...(yes,spelled wrong,i like it that way)
ive tried merging in things that would specifically help make the phone more EFFICENT,NOT BALLS TO THE WALL 420 CRAZY NO SCOPE PERFORMANCE.
its got intelliplug,new thermal,removed B.S., blah blah
but being real,this should drastically increase your phones performance,ive worked hard on setting this up,and while keeping everything working and stable (so far)
so enjoy! the changlog is my github source,ill post here every once and awhile too just to ease the explaining
ITS FOR STOCK ONLY. IVE ONLY TESTED ON MY CRICKET MODEL.
DO NOT FLASH IMMEDIATLY,"fastboot boot image-new.img",if all goes well and you have no issues then run "fastboot flash boot image-new.img" to permanetly flash it

They work for me,mileage may very of course but everything works fine on nosense for me
Is write protection removed?
Good to go for Boost users, so Virgin should have no problems either. Flashed on my Boost with no issues. Both cameras work. Write protection is removed. Only problem is that the default camera app will not save pictures, so use a third party app like Camera Zoom FX or something. Videos still do not save, so dont bother with those. Its a strange issue with the other kernels and nobody knows why.
Explanation: because HTC...
When can we expect governors? And if I here one more thing about DBT I swear I'll punch a kitten
Ummm...now when you say "more efficient"...
I don't think you know what that word means
I'm not trying to insult your intelligence or anything, the intelliplug certainly seems to be doing its job while watching the CPUs with 3c Toolbox. And I know Quadrant scores only tell PART of the story. But you said this kernel should "drastically increase performance". Taking a look at the CPU score alone compared to stock (even CM!) is unconvincing
I got 2971.
OK...found the koolness, Quadrant scores forgiven (for now)
In 3c Toolbox there are now GAMMA and SPEAKER settings. Yus plx!
BTW, probably should mention that in the OP

If you mean will it allow you to use foldermount to mimic obb files on internal SD card...simple answer:
F**K YES!
WELP
Cameras work, system protection is gone, and overall very happy! (Just switched back to stock from CM11)
Installed Link2SD with an EXT3 partition on my SD card not that it's being used.
Mainly using Link2SD just to install apps as system apps which clears up a TON of space (why does this phone have almost 2 gigs free in system partition!!??
Also integrating updates into system apps.
Thanks for the kernel!

I see possibilities here. Before, we couldn't use a custom kernel without borking our cameras. Is there a way to get pattyboi on with rbheromaxx, shinru and yourself in getting a fully working cm kernel with working cameras. I have a github account but i haven't the foggiest on how to build from scratch. I will try to help as much i can and together maybe we can submit it cyanogen and have them take over and start getting nightlies!
Just a thought lol

i dont run benchmarks tbh so idk what the deal is with the scores,not to sound rude but "i dont care" i just judge off how my device feels to me personally obviously ;P and to me it feels snappier and all those other buzz words :silly: but i will download quadrant and do some runs for the next couple of things im gonna try
oh and btw,shoutout to shinru and rbhero,they are the ones that got write protection off,i just cherry-picked the commits :d
and for governors,i really dunno,what would you guys like me to add?
oh,for next release im probably gonna try a new saber toolchain,long as it dont break anything
and finally,for anyone wondering im in a skype chat with rbhero shinru and kalisto,im not a magician so the big stuff tbh has kinda been on shinru,kalisto and rbhero,but i will be trying to help out with anything they do

No problem dude, not rude. I completely understand. Like I said Quadrants don't tell the whole story. It IS smooth. How much smoother than stock? Can't really tell from the surface honestly. Otherwise it performs just as well as stock.
Its main feature that's excited me is finally being able to emulate files from my external to internal storage with foldermount. I'm a hardcore 1337pr0 gamer junkie and was disappointed I wasn't able to before, so props bro! I'll definitely be running the paces on this thing finally. rbheromax can atest that I know how to beat a phone into submission

https://github.com/rbheromax/Rhinstone-a11/commits/cm-12.0
@pattiboi I added prima to my kernel tree fork. i think you may need that later down the road
config options being:
Code:
#
# Qualcomm Atheros Prima WLAN module
#
# CONFIG_PRIMA_WLAN is not set
CONFIG_PRONTO_WLAN=y
# CONFIG_PRIMA_WLAN_BTAMP is not set
CONFIG_HTC_WIFI_NVS=y

# CONFIG_PRIMA_WLAN_11AC_HIGH_TP is not set
# CONFIG_WLAN_FEATURE_11W is not set
# CONFIG_QCOM_VOWIFI_11R is not set
stray from that (specifically LFR), it'll fail to build
