Presenting Kangaroo Kernel
Linux 3.0.101 ck1
For HTC Incredible S ICS Sense ROMs
What is a kernel?
[Car Analogy from Faux]: Kernel is like the Engine, Electrical system and the Transmission to a car. The Library, Framework and the Apps [AKA ROM] are the body frame and the rest of the Car.

Based on Beastmode sources, thanks Team Blackout
Because we can't let the legacy of beastmode for vivo die...
Code:
* Standard disclaimer:
* Your warranty is now void. Use at your own risk.
* In other words: It is your choice to use this software,
* I am not responsible for any damage or problems!
Features:
Compiled with latest Linaro GCC 4.8.3 2013.11 toolchain, -O3, graphite, link time and other makefile flag optimizations
Better performance and battery due to more efficient algorithms
Sweep to wake, now default
Clocks from 122MHz to 1.8GHz (Boots up to HTC default, control with Trickster)
VDD interface
Fixed multitouch
FauxSound TPA: download the app from google play
Other fixes here and there
Dynamic FSYNC()
Interactive governor from Google 3.4: MUCH more responsive and tunable than before
Ondemand backported from 3.4 CAF
GPU drivers from 3.4 Sequent/CAF
SmartMax governor: from Maxwen, recommended governor!
Backports from CAF/upstream
SWAP enabled
2WCR ready (Nonverbose)
Everything else Beastmode has, plus
Installation: (S-OFF users)
1. Download kernel
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Backup
4. Flash kernel
5. Reboot
*Please let it sit for ~10 mins before running benchmarks or judging as it will need to settle down. Do not judge battery life unless you've run it through at least 3+ cycles after flashing*

DISCLAIMERS:
1) overvolting/undervolting your phone may cause boot looping, or break it, brick it, cause it to melt, etc... do this at your own risk, and only if you know what you are doing.
2) If you OC'ed/OV'ed/UV'ed and now are in a boot loop or your phone is slow, or acting weird or just died - this means you changed something to a value your phone didnt like. I added the ability to OV/UV for those who know the risks and how to use it. When you change these, test them for an hour or so before setting on boot
3) overclocking your phone can break it, as you can see from reading this thread, this kernel has been 100% stable for me, but some had issues. Overclock at your own risk.
4) not every phone can be over clocked, anything over 1.2 is considered unstable (on any of my kernels... well ok... most any ones kernel)
5) Please DO NOT use any task killers (or additional INITD scripts), they DO NOT improve performance nor battery life. They INTERFERE with your phone's stability (more crashes) and App compatibilities (Forced Close).

Initial release, based upon the sources of Beastmode cause we can't let a great kernel go to waste
Recommended settings:
Trickster MOD Kernel Settings
TCP: Westwood
I/O: Deadline
CPU: 122-1200MHz for balance, 122-1497 for performance (stock is 245-1024)
Governor: SmartMax/Interactive (Stock values are tuned for balance), Ondemand (tuned more for performance), Dancedance (battery)
Dynamic fsync: on (for saving your data. If fsync is off and your phone crashes then you may lost data)
Voltages: stock, or undervolt if you can a bit (I keep mine stock, stock is standard qualcomm/CAF spec)
Officially supported ROMs (that I run to test this kernel)
- Project X Rebirth
- ViperVivo 1.x, 2.x
- Blackout ICS Incredible (hotspot may not work on 4.0)
- Android Revolution HD 5.x
Any other sense ROMs should work but I don't test them. If you have problems then chances are someone else in the thread running that ROM can help
Works for all sense Roms on incredible s ?

From linuxfoundation.org I got this:
"GRSecurity is a Linux kernel patch aiming at hardening the security of a GNU/Linux system. Both user space and kernel space are protected by grsecurity using many techniques like RBAC for file system access management, increasing system audit by logging important system events, use of Trusted Path Execution to prevent abusive use of binaries, PaX patches to add ASLR, null pointers dereferencing exploits and many others."
But novic_dev might explain it better
nice work dear
thank u <3
This looks promising .. will be sticking in the thread for more updates ..
Nice! New kernel.
From Russia - very nice
Sounds like an awesome kernel, welcome!

Both user space and kernel space are protected by grsecurity using many techniques like RBAC for file system access management, increasing system audit by logging important system events, use of Trusted Path Execution to prevent abusive use of binaries, PaX patches to add ASLR, null pointers dereferencing exploits and many others."

Also sounds like something we don't really need. >_>
nice, more choices for crack flashin'.. спасибо novic_dev
Cool,
haven't run a hardened kernel in a while, any plans to expand this into userland?

I have this kernel running as a base for Desktop Linux Distro named AnikOS
I have been developing AnikOS Distro and AnikOS Secure Kernel as a base for it that uses GRSecurity-based Security subsystem since 2008. Some time ago I started to port AnikOS Secure Kernel to run on the wide range of mobile Android devices ..So, right now you can see the result running on Nexus S

In Russia, the kernel builds you!
Welcome novic_dev.
Question, why don't you use a ANY Kernel version since there are ROM (like MIUI) that use custom RAMDisk?
Here is a ANY Kernel version of your Alpha Build.
EDIT: If you are not O.K. with it, I'll remove it.
Thanks!!!

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.

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.

Those who were haveing file not found issue, the only thing that has to be done was reove the https:// from the link, i've made the changes in the OP now you can download the kernel
Okkk..
Eager to test and tested it also but cant boot up after installing it
Firstly i was installed it on Thunderzap kernel and then (thought that it may be overlapping) tried to install over stock CM 12.1 kernel also but same problem.
Hope get it running soon
working
working like a charm in Roar A50 :fingers-crossed:

With BlackBox-2.0 All Your Issues Are Solved Now!
Thanks a lot.. Working great loved it. But whenever i'm using governers other than hotplug and turn screen off its getting CPUstoo low that its getting switched off...
Same problem is there in Thunderzap Kernel by @varun.chitre15
I hope you will not mind a feature request...
I can't list each and every feature so i'll just point to Boeffla kernel... With almost every feature
Especially i just love PegasusQ governer
Thanks

Its Strange i've been using interactive plus for a day now and i haven't encountered any issues, even on thunderzap kernel used them and working fine! if u r sure its something other than your device a logcat will be appriciated as no one else in encountering this issue . I'll taka a look:fingers-crossed:

Thanks for the reports, i'll take a look and make changes update fix and imrove the next version of kernel! Meanwhile as of i know these governors and io schedulers have issue with mediatek and thus causing all this issue! also the reason why varun disabled those governers!
Warm Regards!
Thanks a lot! Eagerly waiting for your next build!

For the moment, yes. As time progresses, more changes will occur. This was just the first build, so I removed some things that weren't needed, used optimized cross compilers from linaro, as well as other optimizations. Just wanted everyone to try it out, see if there are any specific bugs to my build that need to be addressed, before more customizations can be done. So in short, yes it's basically cm for the first build. As builds continue, it will start to differ more and more
Hey, as you say you are going to try some kernel fixes.. Why not join @Quarx (if you didn't already) with one github account so there won't be multiple versions (which might be confusing).
So If all kernel devs (and later more devs) are working together in one git and one kernel (maybe different branches for multiple features..), that should be awesome!
These are just my thoughts..

Already what I had in mind. But instead of a group github account, if I happen to fix anything, I can push it to Quarx and CM. Then they can commit the fixes if they would like to. Or if Quarx or anyone fixes anything, I'll cherry pick what is needed for my source. It's a little more organized this way(at least in my eyes). I'm always open for anything though, so I can try discussing it with Quarx

Screenshots attached to the original post. I was using Euphoria's CM12 theme off the play store. I like it because it adds a nice overall dark theme. That's why it looks different from stock CM12

The default SELinux policy for android was changed to enforcing mode in Lollipop to increase security. This restricts the functionality of some apps, so as far as I know, the only way to fix it is by changing the SELinux policy back to permissive. Unless there is a better workaround somewhere. And yea, I can post a screenshot of the lockscreen, although it is the exact same as cm12

So is the kernel permissive then? Would be great if it was

You can change it with an app called "SELinux Mode Changer".
PS:The kernel of my ROM is permissive too...
Cool... when you add some nice mods I'll try out the rom ? looks promising
New update will be rolling in tonight. I was able to add overclock/underclock abilities to the GPU. ARM is compiled with -O3 optimizations, and THUMB is now compiled with -O2. This increased the size of the builds a slight bit, but it runs a lot better. PegasusQ governor is also available now. Also several other things, that I will list in the changelog when the ROM is uploaded. I am going to use the second post in the thread for future changelogs etc. Will arrive shortly!

Would be great if you could make selinux permissive #captivateking
@up
It's just one line modification
A one word edit
You can also use this App to change the SELinux mode.
Random Reboots
Great Job with this ROM.. Did you managed to get rid of random reboots? I have try every CM 12.1 ROM and all od them have random reboots on my d405n.
YaYPrime is based on the oficial 3.4.0 mr1.1 kernel from google, with the commits needed to run in android 6.0.
With Android M, all the kernes have merge the commits to be compatible with it, so in my case, I prefer to start a new one from 0, making the phone feel smooth while having a good battery life.
Features:
- Based on official 3.4.0 mr1.1 mako kernel
- Compiled using the lastest version of uber 5.3.1, optimized for cortex-a15
- Anykernel2
- Mako_hotplug as hotplug
- FranciscoFranco's thermal
- FranciscoFranco's gamma control
- Frequency limitator on screen-off (1026mhz by default)
- Voltage control
- Cpu Overclock of 1.7ghz (1.5ghz by default)
- Cpu Underclock of 192mhz (384mhz by default)
- Gpu Overlock of 480mhz (400mhz by default)
- Ondemand, simple and performance as gpu governors
- Ondemand, performance, conservative and interactive as cpu governors
- Deadline, zen, fiops, cfq, bfq, row as i/o schedulers
- Stratosk's Ondemand governor version (by (default)
- Franco's Convervative governor version
- Taurus' Interactive governor version
- Faux's Sound Control
- Readhead set in 512kb by default
- Graphite and neon optimizations
- UsbOtg support
- Kexec (multirom)
- DT2W support
- Fastcharge support
- F2FS support
- A lot of improvements and optimizations

Installation:
If you come from another kernel:
- Reboot in recovery mode
- Dirty-flash the rom you are using (without wipes)
- Flash kernel
If you come from a previous version:
- Reboot in recovery mode
- Flash kernel
(If you find something weird, wipe dalvik/cache)
To configure the kernel I recommend using kernel auditor.
Thanks: @hellsgod (kernel base), Google, Uber, @txuki2005, @serbalabari, @mrraine, @CallMeAldy, @zaclimon, @Flashhhh, @hurtsky, @franciscofranco, @faux123, @stratosk, @neobuddy89, @dorimanx, @osm0sis (anykernel2), and all the people that contribute with their commits.
Finally, I'm not responsible for any damage that can happen to your phones, I use the kernel as a daily one and I don't have any problem.

Not looking for smoothness - Looking for a good battery and performance balance. The best Governor I've found for that is zzmove with ybat as the profile number, and not a single kernel for mako includes zzmove
Nice kernel man been running for 24 hours now using hellsactive profile working very well.

Looking impressive. Working gr8 till now.. Keep up the good work.

Not a bad kernel,but problem that I have is after some time, videos just stop playing, have to reboot my phone to make them work,didn't happen on stock kernel, using franks 6.0 latest build
Performance is solid with this kernel for me. Nice kernel!
Can we have halfbreed color as default in the next build? The washed out colors are burning my eyes lol

Use Synapse or Kernel Auditor or any other kernel tweakers, you can change the colors from the app.
This kernel has USB otg support or not? I've installed synapse and kernel adiutor and didn't found any way to enable USB otg.
I'm using it with pure ROM.

I know that. What I actually meant is the gamma colors that is included within the kernel. That way, it will apply all accross the phone.
If you just change it with an app, it will not apply to recovery and all other things before booting android. That's quite a big deal for me.

I think that it does not (we are basing on hellscore kernel right now), but in the near future I will enable it when M kernels manage to adapt it.

Sorry, but we are using the google's default gamma, so it will be the default one
Btw, I pretty busy with real life and studies, but I'm looking to change to another base with even more optimizations, when I have time I will do some tests
