This kernel is fairly basic right now but does what's intended.
I've been using Resurrection Remix lately, and the only complaint I have, which is a LP problem and not this ROM specifically is that charging is very slow. I tried Yoinx's FC kernel, which charged quickly, but I felt battery life was affected by all of the performance adjustments (the way it comes by default, at least). I decided that I would build my own kernel, based on the baseline kernel sources folks are building 39a-based ROMs off of, but with Fast Charging enabled. I will be doing other adjustments moving forward, but for now the kernel is as close to stock as possible, just with fast charging added.
May I present to you... Retreat Kernel - Build 1. https://mega.co.nz/#!eUUjEarA!ErDWki4r_Zvlo942GvK3stYPQzjMu8LvejpWe8IVSpo
Source: https://github.com/agreenbhm/android_kernel_lge_msm8974
You're required to post a source link for GPL compliance. (To the actual code you compile)
Glad to see more people taking to building from source.
Question: Does fast charge make a difference on your phone? I tried it on 39A with Yoinx's kernel before and it made no difference. Wall chargers charged at ~1600, everything else 30a.

I haven't performed any kind of precision testing, but I can say it seemed to charge more quickly than without the mod. I wasted several hours trying to add OnDemandX to the kernel to no avail, I believe due to some recent incompatibility. As such, time I could have been testing was spent banging my head against my desk [emoji1]

No custom kernels seem to work with dirty unicorns. There must be some mismatch in the ramdisk or something in his new build.
Which is a shame because I really like DU but probably won't stay with it due to this
Nice to see another kernel. Is there support for F2FS /data /cache? And if not, would you please add/support it?

I'm not sure if op wants to try and dig into it. But if you post in yonix thread he may be willing to take a look at it to see what's missing to get the kernel to boot. Once that's done, people just need to pick the commit.
One thing I've found with this is that when modifying the Sound volume settings in Synapse, the volume settings don't seem to stick. Testing out the fast charge now

I've done nothing to adjust that setting, so it may be that it doesn't work in the default kernel sources.
To circle back to charging rates, I'm actually getting slower rates with your kernel to my BB 1.8 wall charger for some reason.
When plugged in using your kernel (toying around with Fast charge in Disabled, Enabled and Custom settings) I seem to cap at ~1000 ma using Ampere and Current Widget. I get 1600 using the stock kernel. If I can find a better USB cable I'll repeat the test with my Aukey 2.1A battery pack. YMMV I suppose, maybe my phone just hates me.

I did some testing today as well after doing more work and I'm also seeing poor charging speeds. I spent a lot of time merging diffs from a D801 kernel that supposedly fixes charging, but I evidently was unsuccessful. Idk wtf is going on. I may start from scratch and re-merge those patches to a stock kernel, in case I screwed something up somehow with the original fast charge.

He said it is as close to stock as possible..
Meaning if the phone came out of the box without it then
there is a -high- probability it will not support anything extra.

Hey all,
As I've posted occasionally on other messages, my O2X was a launch device which had BSOD problems. Had hoped that LG would fix with software but alas no so sent for repair and now have it back all flashed to stock.
Question is what now. I'm going on the basis that they've fixed it (lord knows I want to believe that!).
I had previously installed FR19 which I liked for near to sock google feel.
But I feel that I should use this chance to go to a GB rom.
Has their been a poll done recently on what ROM peeps are using and their recommendations?
Would love this or your guys opinions on what to use.
Thinking either modaco GR4, Cyn nightlies or Cyn 7.1.
I would love as stable as possible as use it as main phone.
What do you guys think?
Cheers
No issues on topogigi 1.9 apart from a spontaneous restore rebooting once.. fixed with a rom backup
Gr4 all the way
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
if you don´t mind reflashing new versions quite often : CM (for me)
i like daily development ...
think I'm going to try 7.1.
But will first flash a new BB.
End of the day nothing to lose as it's stock at the moment and sadly didn't backup correctly before I sent it off.
What's the best way to backup apps and settings etc?
IMHO go for topogigi 1.9. It is stable enough for an everyday use, light and super fast (combined with the V6 SuperCharger and the HorsePower kernel).
But if you have to choose between "GR4, Cyn nightlies or Cyn 7.1", choose CyanogenMod. It is more stable than GR4. And BTW CM 7.1 is nothing more or less than a nightly version.
EDIT: Use Titanium Backup for backing up all your apps and system data, although I don't recommend backing up system data, especially when upgrading from froyo to gb.
(OFFTOPIC: I hate this five minutes waiting time when editing, it is sooo irritating...)

I agree, the best is titanium backup. For me because of the. Batch backup which I have set to run every Wednesday and Friday at 10pm just so it backs any new apps iv got and also I really like the market links as I haven't found another backup which does it (haven't looked that hard as I found TB quickly). You have to be rooted to be able to do this, just I case you were wondering.
Thanks all for the messages, will give horse kernel a go. but whats the difference between the 32bpp and the 24bpp downloads?
Also any recommendations on baseband to use? Was going to get the 725 GB one from modaco if that'll work?

The 32BPP version uses more resources than the 24BPP. You will also see a slight difference in vividness compared to the 24BPP. I recommend you to use the 24BPP, because I personally think it is enough for the O2X.
As for a baseband, I can't say for sure which one is the best, because some say it is 725, other say it is 622. I am using the 725 baseband and I am happy with it.
Dude, you're being a ledgend tonight thanks for the quick replies!
I'm now getting 725BB but cannot see a GB version so hopefully got the right one. Just seeing what other tweaks I want to make then I'll crack on.
Thanks again

All I can say from last night and this morning is....WOW
Installed topogigi 1.9, the SP, horsepower kernel, GB BB (725) and then the BGB theme.
Phone feels miles better than before.
Only thing I've noted is used Set DNS to speed up market but it gets granted super user every time from wake therefore slowing the startup.
Can live with a slightly slower market and therefore deleted it.
Cheers all
SetDNS grants superuser permissions every time from wake because your Wifi/3G is turned on at this moment. A way to get around this is to set Wifi sleep policy to never but this will drain your battery faster.
Has it SOD'd since the repair? Thinking of sending mine off but just don't want it to be a complete waste of time like I expect it will be
Haha I was same as you in terms of would it be worth sending it off.
Carphone warehouse inform me they replaced the main PCB and reflashed back to v10D on 405? BB (thats the only bit I could confirm they have defo done).
I've had it for 24 hours now, charged by mains twice, once on stock and once on topogigi 1.9 with HP kernel. No BSOD as yet. First time on stock was at work when I was almost guaranteed a BSOD, so fingers crossed.
It has got quite hot when I was downloading and installing apps last night, but no BSOD. Been hot a few times today as well but so far so good.
Will report back in a few days and let you know if it's still OK.

i used topogigi 1.9 with the "original" built in kernel (neoblaze), but i was not satisfied, due to some strange issues/bugs.
for the moment i would recommend you the following ROMs as really stable and having a good battery management:
- topogigi 1.7 SP1
- DJDroid 1.0 (i'm using that at the moment).
Well currently 1.9 with the HP kernel seems cracking to me thus far.
Only thing for me is waking up seems slow. Changed the lock screen to ripplelock free and its a bit better. But once you're in whips around good and proper. No lag between screens or downloading / installing from market. Much happier than stock and have to say better than FR19 which I used before sending for repair.

You can fix the slow waking up, just read the ROM FAQ by Topogigi Question 6. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18146527&postcount=2126
Aha!!!
But which one do I change and to what (as in higher or lower value)) to speed up the wake function?
Sorry, noob like question but sort this and I love the rom thus far!!!

I'm sorry, really don't know. Check the EPRJ forum for updates. I didn't test it. I'm not so advance to try that in this phase.
hopefully this kernel fixes the HDD problems that i'm having were my HDD constantly turns on and off after a while so i have to unplug it and plug it back in quick for it to work again, i've already broke one of my 160gb HDD by hitting it hard thinking that the hard drive was at fault every time the OUYA turned off my HDD, i can't be the only person experiencing this and im willing to bet that the STOCK OUYA KERNEL has something to do with it...

sorry guys, didnt want to scare anyone
that was me, having issues with kholks kernel, but like i said i'm using his kernel repacked with stock ramdisk on almost stock firmware and this is not what this kernel was designed for, so i had to expect issues.
fyi: since repack i can access /sdcard like supposed to
for the reboots i can imagine that either too low voltage for high load/frequency or generally weak chip i got there.
didn't have much time to do some in-depth testing thoug since i got myself a new pc today and had to set up everything first
for now i'm going to keep everything the way kholk intended it to be (stockromplus) and try how good it works. only then i will retry on uptodate firmware.
but hey: how was your experience with this great kernel?

i haven't tested the kernel on my OUYA yet, but i might now that i just got me a second new OUYA from my best bud that he asked me to buy him an OUYA back in august 2013 and never opened it or used it so now he passed it on to me to put it to good use , now that i got a second OUYA i'm going to try the kernel on my personal OUYA since the ethernet port **** the bed 2 months ago and i can't get it back in working order and ill keep the new OUYA ready just in case anything goes wrong...
Life is good for those who wait! I have already stripped my StockRomPlus of all OUYA apps and used Xposed (Greenify, Bootmanager and others) to make this a fast Android-only machine. And that's with the stock kernel!
Think I'll wait for another release before taking any steps (can't remember what recovery I have installed, it's been a while) but good times lie ahead!
.. mine not working very well .. 1st boot is get to main screen .. and after a few second it restart .. after that .. no success .. it keep restarting ..
maybe if it start from lower clock .. we can overclock bit by bit to get the right freq for our ouya .. kholk said our ouya may be too WEAK to handle this clock ..
will wait for next update .. cheers ..

are you on stock or stock plus? maybe is overheating, the stock OUYA fan can only do so much, i would try to open it the top cover to the console for more ventilation, i know this might sound crazy but you can also try forcing more air to the ouya by taking the top cover from the OUYA and putting a small house fan on HIGH against the opening and see if that helps. Like i said, it sounds crazy but that's what i would do just to make sure...
.. on stock .. anyway .. this is the 1st release .. next will be surely get better .. i guess .. cheers
shouldnt be really overheating. cooling should be on constantly and since i also have reboots i can assure you they do happen at way lower temperatures than what i would call overheating. limit for ouya should be about 80-85 degrees celsius and ouya reboots for me at aout 55-56 degrees.
if i keep the case open it does not reboot. my shot at this is that we might be able to increase stability by increasing voltage for overcklock-frequencies a bit.
again: we cannot be absolutely sure these issues aren't caused by stock ramdisk / rom as well until we get same on both roms. anyone tested already?

.. hey nchantmnt ..
is it possible to lower clock using app like tegra overclock .. not ouya version but google play version .. since it can lower cpu & gpu clock ..
on stock the highest setting is 1700 on cpu & 520 on gpu .. and this working fine
the range is wide .. 1700-2000 & 520-650 .. may be we can find max setting without changing stock or open ouya ..
of course its possible to limit cpu and cpu clock in userspace.
for trickstermod should do the trick
open case: max 2000mhz reaching ~53° C (shold be almost near limit)
closed case: max 1700mhz reaching ~51 °C
1800mhz is failing after 5 runs of antutu reaching almost 63°C
bear in mind these are not the limits of t33 soc, but a higher temperature does need higher current to stay stable.

Well I can tell you that this kernel does not work like it should on stock, the kernel was made for custome rom and its been confirmed already...Over at eternity project kernel forum post #8 The administrator Kholk said that OUYA shuts down with the case CLOSED during heavy load, but no problems with shut down with the case OPENED. I think I'll also wait till a updated version with a dummies guide on how to exactly flash it and if we need to use EP bootloader or stock bootloader , instructions are not very clear...

True, maybe is not overheating but Over at eternity project kernel forum post #8 The administrator Kholk said that OUYA shuts down with the case CLOSED during heavy load, but no problems with shut down with the case OPENED.

Don't mix anything up kholk just said he leaves his case open and that there is a automatic shutdown function if the device reaches 85 degrees celcius. We are nothing near 85 degrees yet, so don't care about that.
And just for your interest: if you repack kholks kernel with the ramdisk of stock ROM it should work just the same. I tried and didnt get any issues I didn't have on stockplus later.

Well although you seem to have a very slick mouth, if you want to know the details of why I ask it is because the person I currently live with has just installed this rom. It comes with the Franco kernel 3.10 and there seem to be problems going on. Headphone jack doesn't seem to work as well as a few small other things. Battery life also being one of them... so I am asking what people think is the best kernel to be using for this rom, something that is obviously compatible and works well.
That is why I am "ASKING" for help, not "BEGGING" as you seem to put it. Didn't your mother ever tell you if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all?
Try Zen kernel or hells-Core, both are fantastic.

There is no such thing as the "Best" kernel. What we all want from a kernel is different. Again, many people have the misconception that Kernels affect battery life. Let's get this cleared up. Although Kernel devs will build in optimisations and efficiencies that will improve battery life, these are very, VERY tiny...and if 1 kernel has these optimisations, they likely all have.
People will often say "Kernel x is better than kernel y for battery life". This is actually wrong. Kernels respond to user settings. Setting up the governor to favour either battery life or performance is simple enough to do, you just have to do some learning. The reason people think Kernel x is better than y is because developers set their kernels up with their preferred governor settings. This is what we refer to as out-of-the-box settings. The out-of-the-box settings for kernel x may well produce better battery results than the out-of-the-box settings for kernel y, which favour performance. The fact is, you as the user have the ability to tune kernel x or y to perform the same, be that battery or performance - so start learning how to do this yourselves - that way, you can choose the kernel based on the FEATURES you want, and not the fictional performance benefits of one kernel over another.
Hope this helps
For what its worth, i like ElementalX

Well although you seem to have a very slick mouth, if you want to know the details of why I ask it is because the person I currently live with has just installed this rom. It comes with the Franco kernel 3.10 and there seem to be problems going on. Headphone jack doesn't seem to work as well as a few small other things. Battery life also being one of them... so I am asking what people think is the best kernel to be using for this rom, something that is obviously compatible and works well.
That is why I am "ASKING" for help, not "BEGGING" as you seem to put it. Didn't your mother ever tell you if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all?

Im on latest chroma with the kernel it came with......i have no issues with nothing.........i just received a rma nexus 6 though
Please remove the thread moderators.. It may show disrespect to hardwork of our beloved developers.. I love our redmi2/prime developers and I don't want that they get hurt. So PLEASE REMOVE THIS THREAD moderators
I am currently rocking crDroid's latest build with Berserk kernel and I am not facing any issues. I have been using crDroid as my daily driver from 3 weeks. Although I did face few problems you mentioned on few other ROMs. They tend to become slower overtime. I am yet to try DU and AOKP's latest build. Also I have used Nameless ROM for a long time before trying crdroid and I didn't face any issue with Nameless either. All of that is with xposed installed.

Do u use mobile data while charging?
It'll slowdown Charging like hell.. And I face lags in each and every rom after few days.. Do u use crdroid mm rom? And the latest update is 1 week old 21st May build.. Are your using that?
Shame On You
First of all, "DON'T COMPLAIN WHEN YOU ARE GETTING SOMETHING FOR FREE",
It's not imposed on you by anybody.
The kernel source which is now used is a backported one,thanks to "kuma".
This helped a whole lot of Redmi users to enjoy something(CM support) which many only dream of.
The sources are open source,you too can contribute and remove bugs.
OEMs pay devs thousands/hour in order to remove the bugs present in their firmware,even I'm ashamed that I'm unable to contribute.
You should have the common sense to know that the charging gets slowed down when using the data,the power supplied by charger gets used up by the modem/radio and little charge is sent into the battery
PS:try to feel their pain by trying to build yourself,you will have to start with the sources the worked hard on,and uploaded so that somebody can correct the mistake they might have made.
Personally I have used RR for more than 2 months,none of the bugs are serious ones(i used to have ROM,whose SysUI used to crash when ever service was not available).I use RR for the freedom it gives me, I don't like Google itself snooping on me,apps accessing my personal data,and all advanced features.

First of all I respect their work and I'm not ordering I'm just requesting.. and I know while using data charging gets slow but in our custom roms it didn't even increase 1% in 1 hour.. so please don't shout at me as I'm just sharing my issue and I already said some people will hate me after this post..so I don't mind

L.O.L. If you want the bugless rom, then go back to stock rom, man! Do not install custom rom if you wont face the bug. I have 2014813 (2gb variant) running latest cm13 official, i didnt face "lag like hell'' and slow charging. Its running so smooth and stable. It can be use as a daily driver. For battery backup? I have 6-7 hours in SoT.

For slow charging, I think you need to try another usb cable, original usb cable is very disappointed!
Charging is slow only when using mobile data.. It didn't happened in miui.. But in custom roms its slow
try custom kernel and see how it goes on
I don't think there is any charging issue like this for any MM custom roms. Charging is normal irrespective of mobile data. I have tried RR and nexus.

You mean charging is ok even data is on for you?
Why I face the issue then and why I don't face same issue in miui :/
Charging if fine. I used mobile data+created Hotspot+ playing COC. Still charged appriciable.
Must try to use a charger with higher rating. Means for current O/P.

Most stable ROM for redmi 2 is the aicp ROM ....until now I have not a slight issue with the ROM, I have tried other ROMs too but aicp ROM is the best opinion for redmi 2

i agree with u, almost all custom rom / custom kernel there are slow charging

I noticed some people saying that they were having battery issues with the recent update, I was on February update with stock kernel and had very good battery life I flashed to a custom kernel and my battery life was significantly different so I flashed back to stock and it's perfect again... has anyone else noticed this? or am I going crazy?

"Some people did something..." use a kernel manager to measure your "active drain" and "idle drain" over the course of a day or two. Then you will likely come to realize battery life is (slightly) better with a custom kernel. I've tested both Kirisakura and ElementalX. For me both are improvements over stock, in addition to the perks using of a custom kernel.

I've really only used Kiri, haven't used Elemental... how would you say the two compare? which do you prefer?

I have a lot of respect for Freak07. He's an up and coming dev devoting a lot of time and energy to his kernel which is rock solid. It's just that I've been with ElementalX for so long, across probably a dozen devices that it has just become my go-to kernel. flar2 also supports some gestures that Freak07 has not (S2S). In turn, I bought his kernel manager to support him. (EXKM works with other kernels, too) You cannot go wrong with either one, but I was very impressed with Kirisakura. Cheers.

I ended up paying for exm manager as well, I ended up going to Kiri since it's been my go to as well even with my OnePlus devices it has never really steered me wrong maybe I'm just not being patient enough lol
