Do you need some cpu tweak appliacation for this one?like s-tweak. or just leave it by using simple one like no frillis cpu ( which im using it now ) on googy kernel 2.6. i like stock tweaked kernel because i dont play along customizing kernels. And btw how to reset binary with this kernel since ive read thats is supported?

works on 4.2.2 or only 4.1.2 ?

Hey mate Im keen to test but one question first if you dont mind.
I see it goes into off-line mode when the screen goes off.My mate has the HTC One and there was something similiar to that he had activated..(not to good on the new HTCs).Thing is it put the wifi to sleep also for recieving messages from 3rd party apps like Line and WhatsApp and he missed messages/notifications.Is this what is in your kernel cos I use a lot of wifi here at home.Dont want to miss anything.
Cheers.

Offline- change in my kernel (xensq) is like how pegasusq governor works.
Only core goes into offline mode when the screen goes off.

Enter recovery and flash it... Is this the way, right? Thanks

[Kernel][CM10/MIUI/PA][CM10.1] Kowalski Kernel - NEW BOOTLOADER ONLY for SU660

Kowalski Kernel for CM10/ CM10.1 - Stable release (SU660)​
This kernel supports the new bootloader only, modified to Optimus 2x su660 so I made this post to update users from the kernel by kowalski. I personally tried the kernels myself and I can assure you it's 101% working. I tried hard testing different kernels and I found this working great. Note: Kernel Kowalski still in the process of updating so, we are hoping for new updates soon.
I do not credit myself for this marvel work.
Keys all working this includes all. (Menu, Home, Back, Power and Volume rockers)

Kowalski kernel 100p5 for CM10.1 - http://www.mediafire.com/?eac1vonck6r91k7
How to install:
Make sure youre on the New Bootloader.
Be sure you're on proper ROM (CM10/CM10.1)
Be sure on latest CWM
Download the kernel you're in.
Copy to storage.
Go to recovery

* In Kowalski Manager you can change the power management settings of the wireless card:
- PSP Power Saving Mode ---> your wifi card will use Max PSP when asleep. The kernel default is to sleep in Fast PSP mode.
- Awake Power Management ---> your wifi card will use Fast PSP when awake if enabled, otherwise will use CAM mode.
- Hotspot Power Management ---> when enabling hotspot mode, your wifi card will use Fast PSP if enabled, otherwise the default is to use CAM mode.
CAM (Constantly Awake Mode)
Keeps the client adapter powered up continuously so there is little lag in message response time.
Consumes the most power but offers the highest throughput. Is recommended for desktop computers and devices that use AC power.
Fast PSP (Power Save Mode)
Switches between PSP mode and CAM mode, depending on network traffic. This mode switches to CAM when retrieving a large number of packets and switches back to PSP after the packets have been retrieved.
Is recommended when power consumption is a concern but you need greater throughput than that allowed by Max PSP.
Max PSP (Max Power Savings)
Causes the access point to buffer incoming messages for the client adapter, which wakes up periodically and polls the access point to see if any buffered messages are waiting for it. The adapter can request each message and then go back to sleep.
Conserves the most power but offers the lowest throughput. Is recommended for devices for which power consumption is the ultimate concern (such as small battery-powered devices).
Source will be pushed to my github about 2 or 3 days after a release, to make sure that no major bugs are introduced in the public repository.
This kernel can be compiled with any gcc 4.6.X that supports graphite loop optimizations, so if you want to compile it by yourself you'll have either to build your own toolchain (for example using crosstool-ng), or use one of the many linux prebuilt ones (for example Linaro or CodeSourcery). Make sure they're 4.6.X. Earlier versions may complain a lot and generate and unstable kernel. Please test it thoroughly before releasing it with your rom.

Oh, sorry my bad. You need extreme Linux knowledge and programming languages especially in C in order to build one. Check the Cyanogen sites and here on XDA for tutorials.

[Kernel][GPL][4.3 JS][August 6][a5] m_plus kernel for mako

m_plus kernel for Nexus 4 (mako)!
Hi All,
In an attempt to reduce the confusion related to the two versions of 4.3, I have decided to split my m_plus thread into 3 versions, a version for 4.2 (the previous thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2256887), a version for 4.3 JS AOSP builds (this one) and a version for 4.3 JW builds (not yet up, but will be in the future).
Disclaimer: As usual, I am not responsible for anything that may or may not happen to your device as a result of using this kernel or any other flashable zips posted by me in this thread.
Kernel Features:
Based on the latest Google Source for 4.3
Built with the Linaro 4.7.3 toolchain (2013.07)
insecure ramdisk (ro.recure=0, ro.debuggable=1)
init.d support (by flashing the full ramdisk, requires busybox installed to /system/xbin)
Undervolting support (down to 600mV)
Gamma Control support (motley, faux and franco interfaces available)
Faux Sound Control support including poweramp
dynamic fsync
simple GPU governor
Builds:
Sources: https://github.com/thracemerin/kernel-Nexus4/tree/m_plus_43_exp_JS
Warning: These builds are for 4.3 builds beginning with the letters JS only, if you flash it on a JW based build you will have all sorts of strange graphical issues.
Personal Request: If you plan to make unofficial builds with features not included in the builds posted by me, please don't link them in the thread, all this does is result in confusion especially if someone has a problem with something you have added, it is much easier for me to provide support if I know that everyone in the thread is running the same builds I am. If you want to make a kernel with these features, feel free to start another thread so that they can be discussed and supported as appropriate.
http://goo.im/devs/thracemerin/mako/m_plus_43/JS_builds/alphas
Latest:
Alpha 5:
Flashable (anykernel): m_plus_43_alpha_5JS.zip
Note: if you need the full ramdisk for init.d support/insecure ramdisk, flash the ramdisk package alpha 4 first.
What's Added:
USB force fast charge
Enable Krait Retention
Various patches and enhancements from CAF
Previous:
Alpha 4:
Note: The anykernel version doesn't include init.d support and insecure ramdisk unless your ROM already has it, if you were on alpha 3 you will retain it.
Note 2: If you flash the ramdisk version on CM, the built-in superuser will stop working, CM includes init.d support anyway.
Flashable (ramdisk included): m_plus_43_alpha_4JS_ramdisk.zip
Flashable (anykernel): m_plus_43_alpha_4JS.zip
What's Included:
all the stuff listed in kernel features
freezer patches by Colin Cross

PowerHAL Fix:
There is an issue in the stock AOSP powerHAL where the mpdecision touch boost requests are being sent to the wrong socket, as a result there will be unexpectedly poor UI performance. Show-p1984 fixed this problem in his Stockified AOSP build and I pulled the powerHAL and made it flashable for everyone. Just flash it in recovery and reboot, if you want to go back to the stock one just dirty flash your ROM. This shouldn't cause any problems on any ROM even if it has the fix already cooked in, but if it does you can just dirty flash your ROM to remove it. Thanks to show-p1984 for the fix.

Yep, need to have busybox installed too.
First of all, thanks for your work.
I want to make sure I understand the procedure correctly.
If I use CM10.2, I flash "m_plus_43_alpha_4JS.zip" to maintain the built in superuser.
init.d will still work, cause cm already supports it.
Right now I am on Alpha3 with SuperSU 1.51. So to update to alpha4 I can simply flash over.
If I want to go back to the built in superuser I have to reflash CM, then flash alpha4 via zip.
Is this correct?
Wont stay connected to Google services when phone goes into deep sleep, bars and signal are grey when i turn screen on. I thought Google fixed all the wifi issues with N4 in 4.3 kernel?

Thanks, just wanted to reply. Works as you said.
After the first boot I had some strange behaviour,
min cpu clock did not go below 1,026 ghz and GPU Clock did not go above 200 mhz.
A restart fixed it, incase somebody notices similar behaviour.

Hi
Of course Kowalski Manager can't be opened, since you don't run the Kowalski Kernel on your phone (as the program "printed"). This kernel is not the Kowalski Kernel. You'd have to install KK to make Kowalski Manager to work.

trying the data part and than release it.
You are so fast Thank you!
I can't even follow all the thing what happened today. 3.1 kernel on p990! android 4.4 is evolving fast!, less bugs!
Respect for all your works developers!!
Great job @DJNoXD! Your speed is really impressive and its amazing to see this new enthusiasm for our phone. I will need at least two days to thank everybody who contributed to this.
@DJNoXD is necessary to have the twrp?

Version Information
Status: Beta
Current Beta Version: 2
Beta Release Date: 2014-04-03
Created 2014-03-25
Last Updated 2014-04-04
First comment for future use
aosp or cm based?
and 2nd for future fun
AOSP based kernel and tested on stock rom
I have a dream: a dream that one day, a developer, even someone new to the game, will come along and make an optimized stock kernel, i.e. a kernel with stock mpdecision, but with various optimizations that make it faster. I have high hopes for this kernel, please make my dream come true. Don't make another frankenstein-kernel.
i will test your build and report back.
Updated to v0.0.5
Changes;
- KGSL updates
- Reworked at L2 bus speed optimizations (more responsive now)
- Power efficient workqueue patch
- Simple GPU governor added / enabled by default
- GPU undervolt a little bit to reduce heat

Hi!
These are my first cycle results with version 0.0.1 and stock rom. I am gladly impressed.
Not hooked to any wifi APs just 3G.
A zip file would be helpful so we could flash it through recovery

Thanks for your results.
I think battery will be better with v5 as well as smoother. Please let me know GPU performance as well If you are playing games.
I can prepare the zip file in next versions. Also you can flash my boot images via Flashify without enter even Recovery
Thanks,

Hi,
I am not playing any GPU intensive games. Thank you for the tip about Flashify Will report back with v5 results.
Hi there!
These are my results with v5, not hooked to any APs just 3G. As you can see SOT has gone down and i am pretty sure the use i gave to the phone was the same as when i had v1.
I am going back to v1 to see if my previous results stand.

I think the reason of this, highest L2 speed for 1026Mhz which is touch boost freq. I just decreased a bit for 1026Mhz.(in v11) Performance is in between v1 and v5 but battery stays much longer like v1.
v11;
- L2 bus speed decreased for 1026Mhz for better battery life
- Synced with Linux 3.4.85
Thanks,
hello @ihancioglu.. if its not a bother could u please provide future versions with any-kernel updater for us custom rom users, as some roms have some modifications in the ramdisk which would be removed by flashing the boot.img.
thanks
Hello!
Using v11 i got some random reboots. It also happened with the other versions but only at the end of the battery cycle and so i thought it was due to the battery finishing even though the indicator still showed 4% or the like. This time the reboots happened pretty often.

Hi my friend,
Thanks for your reports!
I also realize some random reboots with v11 which causes a bug on slub.c.
I don't have much time for now. So I created a new version with Mirage backend. This is completely stable. You can use it safely.
I will continue my project as soon as have free time.
Thanks,

Okay I will create a version with any kernel updater method for you.
Thanks,

I have a dream: a dream that one day, a developer, even someone new to the game, will come along and make an optimized stock kernel, i.e. a kernel with stock mpdecision, but with various optimizations that make it faster. I have high hopes for this kernel, please make my dream come true. Don't make another frankenstein-kernel.
i will test your build and report back.

The default mpdecision is the worst inefficient/bloated code I would like to have in such an optimized kernel. That is why I have removed it along with touchboost, dcvs, run_queue_stats. I have developed MiRaGe with the same mindset you describe: optimized stock kernel.
Can I request f2fs support? Patches are linked here.

I think this may be the rom that will hit over the 3k barrier. at the moment hitting constant 29XX mark in quadrant even with first 3D test staying on avg between 40-60FPS, 38-44FPS 2nd 3D and 23-25FPS on last 3D.
My Setup
Gapps: Banks Min 4.4 7/29/14 build
Runtime: Art
CPU Freq: 1.4Ghz 1.2mV
Govener: Ondemand
I/O Sch: SiO
Additional Tweaks
Malive Booster v2.0
Flashable Seeder by ryu found in seeder op
Hyper Cola v1.6
Once again , Thanks @jfbs for another treat.
To others who are curious, this rom is stacked feature wise, responsive and impressive
Flashed this earlier today and I agree with @det0xx, this ROM has some great customization features and is very responsive!
I've only noticed a few bugs here and there (long pressing location tile doesn't navigate to location menu, needed to re-check and then un-check to disable flip tile effect, unable to remove torch tile), but nothing major. Overall, this is one impressive ROM! Great job @jfbs!
One bug I have is the lockscreen wallpaper disappears and stays black. Did a fresh install, not a major issue, just wanted to report it. Thanks for the rom, really nice.

odd i haven't got that issue or at least not yet. Mind giving more feedback as to
Gapps used/using: List all the ones you have tried only that has this issue. CM, PA, Banks, and/or etc. vers such as 4.4.2 -.4 and build date.
Theme: default or 3rd party if 3rd party link or name of theme
Wallpaper: used gallery or 3rd party app to set it.
Runtime: Art or dalvik
Gapps: banks standard 4.4.4 7-24 build, standard theme. Wallpaper set through gallery, dalvik runtime. The problem seems to come and go. I'm not really concerned with it as at the moment I'm using this device as a media player. If nobody else is having the issue maybe I messed something up when adjusting my settings. When I have the chance I will see if I can sort it out.

Sorry for the delayed reply been tweaking to hit a constant and stable 3k benchmark. at 2950-98 atm for constant and stable. i've hit 3k just recently however phone becomes unstable. if your phone can handle 1.5ghz oc without problems then the 3k is already possible but battery life i'd assume would drop quite a bit. i've also hit unstable 3k using 1.4ghz and tweaking some settings but haven't messed with it much yet. anyways as far as your issue. yeah it has me stumped without physically seeing everything. If your not worried about and at least to my knowledge no one else is having the same issue. let us know if you do figure out what it is that is causing it.
I got my issue resolved. I'm not sure what caused it, but I fixed it by re-flashing the rom.

prolly just flashed without wiping davlik and not 1 zip at a time per a reboot.
I used this ROM on my s4, it is a really nice ROM. Think I will pull out the exhibit and give it a try.
Well this rom is awesome.
And I finally figured out what I did wrong when trying jfbs's roms. It turns out I was not always loading just one zip at a time, and not leaving it alone long enough after booting the rom.
This time I left it be but with the settings screen on and CPU overlay enabled in developer options so I could tell when it finally stopped thrashing the IO subsystem in the phone (over 90% usage in the overlay, showed blue for a good 20 minutes).
So far so good! Been running it now for a day and no major issues.
Though one niggling thing is no way to adjust the hard buttons back light. I prefer to have it always on with the screen instead of timing out after 5 seconds.

if you really want to get the most follow my oc guide in general op. Note battery life decreases past stock voltage. however higher frequency does not. i would also recommend waiting til you try the phone for a little bit before overclocking. however if you want better battery life and lower cpu temps now without sacrificing performance you can always undervolt the cpu for stock frequency. Stock if i remember correctly is 1ghz at 1.2mV i know almost if not everyone using the galaxy w (which is where most of our stuff comes from) can run 1ghz at 1.1mV as far as i know all our exhibits can as well. I could be wrong but at least from others and my own experience 1.1mV works flawlessly for 1ghz. as far as flashing a kernel to do it with jfbs roms you dont need to flash anything with cars1198's roms you do. Also i would not recommend starting at 1.1mV as a starting point.
EDIT: @jfbs so been running this rom for some time now and i can honestly say this beats AOIP by a long shot now. rock solid, still constant 29xx .8%hr sleep, 24%hr (max 4hr15mins) at stress test usage oc'd at 1.4ghz @ 1.2mV. No rom/kernel sided bugs encountered.
