Intelli-thermal
v16.5 and above now uses a different method that is slightly more easier to implement
Trickster-MOD has been updated to include better control over intelli-thermal. Here are the recommended settings for a good thermal-performance balance
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Explanation
Frequency Throttle Limit : This is the maximum temperature after which the frequencies are throttled
Core Offline Limit : This is the maximum temperature after which the CPU cores are turned off
Frequency throttling cores : The cores which are throttled after hitting the Frequency Throttle Limit
Offline cores : The cores which are turned off after hitting the Core Offline Limit
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Example -above
Frequency Throttle Limit : 85 C
Core Offline Limit : 75
Frequency throttling cores : Cores 0 & 1 are throttled when they hit the thermal limit
Offline cores : Cores 2 & 3 are switched off when they hit the thermal limit

Advanced Xperia Recovery
What is Advanced Xperia Recovery?
This is a new method to boot into the recovery, bootloader or simply power off the phone. It is a modified binary of multirom.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How does it work?
During bootup, the system uses the FOTAKernel (which is useless for unlocked bootloaders). This partition contains the recovery that the user wants.
Advantages -
1 - All kernels that support the FOTA method can use a single recovery. Currently all CM/AOKP/PAC based kernels support FOTAKernel Recovery. Thus, even when you use another CM-based ROM, you can still retain the same recovery.
2 - Reboot to recovery from the ROM works perfectly without the need for any additional app or user interaction
3 - The kernel RAMDisk no longer contains the recovery, thus making it faster during kernel de-compression
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How do I install it?
Just follow the instructions in the AROMA setup. Additionally, you can refer to this thread to learn more about FOTAKernel Recovery.
Thanks @championswimmer
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How do I use it?
Initially, just tap on the screen when the phone boots up and the "Blue" LED comes up and the phone vibrates. While installing, you can configure whether you want to use the power-button or the volume keys or just use the touch-screen.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Remember! This is a single recovery solution as including multiple recoveries is not the aim of this project.
About CPU/GPU Voltage control
Setting custom CPU Voltages
The easiest method would be install Trickster Mod and perform the necessary changes.
Trickster Mod:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bigeyes0x0.trickstermod
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Setting custom GPU Voltages via sysfs(Only for v18.5 and below)
NB:
- Safe lock is present on MIN/MAX values:
#define GPU_MIN_VDD 900000
#define GPU_MAX_VDD 1200000
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The default GPU voltages are:
+ [VDD_DIG_NONE] = 0,
+ [VDD_DIG_LOW] = 945000,
+ [VDD_DIG_NOMINAL] = 1050000,
+ [VDD_DIG_HIGH] = 1150000
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Verify the actual settings:
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_mv_table
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
945000
1050000
1150000
Adjust to desired values and verify:

Yes it did. But you cannot flash a custom stock kernel even for a stock firmware without unlocking your bootloader. The locked bootloader will reject my custom kernel as it is not signed by Sony.

If no one is interested, I might as well close this thread.
If anyone is still willing to try, I have a bunch of updates pushed to my git sources, which I will release as 2.0 only if necessary.

well I tried it out and it worked well , but I went back to Doomkernel. Not because yours wasnt good , i think doomkernel was just more frequently updated and had more features like fast charge etc . But i do love your work with cyanX roms and all.
Will try it later and report back with some feedback.

It's nice to have several alternatives (kernels) to choose from! Your kernel works fine and I've been waiting for the next release to test it again.
Keep up the good work, my friend! :good:

A: I recommend the default settings. This is why it there by default!

Q: My phone as rebooted on its own or is stuck on a reboot loop.
A: There are 3 reason why your phone may reboot on its own:
1. Your phone does not handle the Undervolt of the kernel
Flash the stock voltage add-on. (NO I will not make the kernel with stock voltage by default)
2. Your phone cannot handle the Overclock of the kernel
Use another kernel, Sorry...
3. There is a bug in the kernel and I should fix it:
Post the /proc/last_kmsg output as a ZIP in the thread. BUT, before posting make sure the last_kmsg contains the mention "Kernel panic", if not, don't bother posting this because your problem is related to point 1 or 2...A kernel Panic looks like this:
Code:
[ 4079.850240] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception

Q: Why did you remove feature X?
A: Because I think it sucks
* This is my personal opinion and I am allowed to have it

Click to collapse
Q: Can you add feature X?
A: Depends. Before asking that question, check the changelog.
If it was removed, NO.
* If you have a really good reason why you think a feature should come back from the dead, you can defend your case by PM.
If it's a new feature that I may not know about, just let me know of the feature and I'll consider it.
If its a new shinny CPU governor or IO scheduler, NO the ones that will remain do the job perfectly...

As it's based on CM11 it should support all variants CM support, so yes, it should.
But as I own an xt1032 I haven't tested, and I'm not familiar with any 1033 specific bugs the CM11 base has.
I'd appreciate your feedback, please.

First, THANKS (I'm gonna cry) for reporting your problem with a logcat and dmesg - lol.
It doesn't look like kernel related, and since Feyerabend got it working, it mustn't be. Try with a fresh & clean install (specially if you've been flashing other kernels, or stuff).

Man I tried a clean flash and wifi still doesn't turn on haha. Wonder what's causing the problem (for me at least)
(by clean flash I mean clean for new rom via philz, and flashing crdroid, after that flashing the kernel, and then rebooting)
Just flashed it, EVERYTHING works beautifully - WiFi, camera, network - EVERYTHING.
Thanks a lot Mr. Dev

Hello again,
This is my work on the stock Marshmallow Kernel for Zenfone 2, based on the officially released ZF2 kernel source code.
Please note that I do my testing on a ZE551ML 4GB 2,3GHz
Note: This kernel works ONLY on stock based versions!
Features:
Based on Zenfone 2 V4.21.40.184 kernel source (completely from scratch)
Built with gcc4.9 toolchain
UC to 333MHz
Touchboost input event handler
Added the following CPU governors:
- Lionheart
- Bioshock
- Yankactive
- TheSSJactive (Yankactive with hotplugging)
Added IO schedulers:
- sio
- zen
- vr
- fifo
- sioplus (credits to @boype, fixed afterwards for zf2 by me)
- fiops
- working ROW scheduler!!!
- deadline
Added TCP congestion algorithms:
-BIC
-CUBIC
-WESTWOOD
-HSTCP
-HYBLA
-HTCP
-VEGAS
-VENO
-SCALABLE
-LP
-YEAH
-ILLINOIS
Approx. 30% faster due to CRC disabling and auditing
Power efficient Work queues
Powersuspend
Dynamic FSync
Set minimum brightness to 2 instead of 15 percent (changeable via kernel adiutor, please set it to 1 there, otherwise your screen is pretty much black)
exfat support (no fuse, all credits to @Dorimanx, automounting of devices fixed by @sorg)
Sweep2Sleep (all credits to Lord Boeffla)
frandom RNG
F2FS support
ZRAM
WLAN Wakelock reducer
More to come:
Init.d
If I should find the time also:
BLX
A separate KVM build
Compiling with another Toolchain
How to install:
1st pre-requisite: Unlock your Bootloader
2nd pre-requisite: Use the stock Marshmallow ROM ;-)
3rd pre-requisite: BACKUP!!!
Download the flashable anykernel zip here:
Drive
Flash it via TWRP and reboot. The Anykernel zip preserves whatever modification you already have (xposed, root,...) and just replaces the needed parts :good:

Any bugs? Tell me about your current phone setup and describe the problem!
Project T, reborn! It's incredible to see this project alive agan!
@TheSSJ, about F2FS: it supports mixed setups (F2FS /data and ext4 /system and /cache) or only F2FS-all setups?
I love you

For some reason, after flashing, the kernel does not install.
I reboot to twrp, dirty flash WW134 ROM, flash supersu, flash xposed, flash twrp and flash this kernel. Wipe cache and d.cache.
Reboot and it stock kernel.
I tried 2nd time. Flash kernel in twrp and it still stock kernel.
@TheSSJ
My friend @TheSSJ
Thanks for your kernel.....
I flashed it , but when i reboot, my kernel is stock... Flash again and same stock kernel.
Regards!!

same here. I was on borets kernel, and it keeps.
Thats bad..will look into it later to see what went wrong...thx for the feedback
wow great
Cool it everyone, I think it's just a misunderstanding
I have uploaded a flashable zip for now as Anykernel doesn't work as I want it to work ^^
At the moment this can be only flashed by people
WITH root and
WITHOUT xposed
After flashing the kernel, then you can re-flash xposed, this should work then

EDIT:
After flashing the kernel the system became unbootable. It boots into recovery after "reboot system".

Okay, did you have xposed installed? Could you please try to remove xposed and just flash the kernel without it? This Anykernel thing seems to be the only available option...

Maybe I'm being paid to break xposed
I just need to take the time to see where the script goes wrong (by the way,I took your anykernel as base :laugh: )
Will test it line by line on my linux machine today :good:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
never post problems without full details of what setup you are using, it's not possible to help that way.
Provide me some logs:
- ADB logcat dump
- /sys/fs/pstore contents
- dmesg dump
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if you think your battery life is not good enough , use betterbatterystats and find the battery drain causes..
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if you use CPU O.C steps and your device experiencing random reboot while its on standby mode , it means your CPU can't take it. The 821 Lite is a maxed out 820 , No more room for CPU OC.

No , kernel don't use OC CPU steps by default.
No such issue here.
send me your /sys/fs/pstore contents after random reboot.

Hard to describe. After play 30 second normal sound. After that 30second some distortion. Distortion like sizzle, like cable tv when it lost signal.
Then return to normal sound.
Hope it will help

never tried it on MM bootloader , why woluld you use MM bootloader , while kernel is compatible with N bootloader?!

No!
AFAIK system changes are needed to properly support an EAS enabled kernel and without them you won't see the power saving benefits.

3d: 2.850 ram 4.150 cpu and ux is depending on user.
I've lost ROOT after flashing this Kernel. Had to root my phone again through TWRP and flashing those 1 and 2 files again.
Had after that a small bootloop but after 3rd attempt it booted normal. Still, being blocked 10s on unlocking sim card is scary sometimes ))

Look thread name, it's clearly stated that you need EMUI 4.0 not 4.1. Maybe later I will make version for emui 4.1. 4.0 Kernels won't boot on 4.1 probably because different baseband.

Root modifies the Kernel. If you change it, root is gone. To root again, you can just flash the latest SuperSU or Magisk zip. You don't need those 2 root files. To fix the 10 second wait, you could disable SIM PIN.
