Hey, it's been a while since my last (and failed) release, so let's see if you can help me on this one.
As you might have guessed, I have compiled our latest kernel, and this is my own version!
Right now, people have reported battery life improvements, I'd love to hear what you think!
Changelog
Code:
V2.0
* Enabled some CPU governors.
V2.1
* Updated KSM with uKSM.
* Added Thunderplug hotplugging driver.
* Added PMC and Smartmax CPU governors.
* Added Init.d support. (Make sure the file has the proper permissions)
V2.2
* Updated GPU drivers to be compatible with EMUI 4.1.
* Added Intelliplug hotplugging driver.
* Improved GPU performance.
Downloads
V2.2 (New): https://github.com/XePeleato/ALE-L21_ESAL/releases/tag/v2.2
Instructions
Download the .zip
Flash from recovery
Done!

Guide
I am going to try to help you to decide what settings you should apply
First of all, I recommend to install Kernel Adiutor.
If you prefer battery life:
Start Kernel Adiutor:
Go to CPU in the drop-down menu and set as governors PMC or SmartmaxThen go to CPU hotplug and don't enable many cores, since more online cores means more power used. You can also set the Endurance level to Quad-core
If you prefer performance:
Start Kernel Adiutor:
Go to CPU in the drop-down menu and set as governors performance (will set the CPUs to their max frequency)/ondemand/interactiveThen go to CPU hotplug and make sure to lower the load threshold, having a low load threshold will make your phone use more cores (if you experience lag while playing, maybe it's set too low, so use a wise value, do your testing.)
To conclude, I just mentioned where the settings are and some example values, if you love to play games you won't use the same settings as someone that just likes to read emails and use Google Chrome, find the settings you are comfortable with, and don't forget to set Apply on boot!
Now some screenshots of AnTuTu and 3DMark with Performance governor and Esalv2.1:
http://imgur.com/a/iRDpD
As you can see, even 3DMark detects that my score is higher than the average, try to beat that with stock kernel!
I hope you enjoy it, and please, I'd love to hear your suggestions!
just a quick question if you dont mind : any way to flash it via twrp ? so in case that something goes wrong i can easily restore the old one with a backup .

I'll upload a flashable zip, but it shouldn't be a problem, if you take a backup of your Boot partition and restore it, it will overwrite the kernel.
thanks! i will try it and see how it goes.
Sim gets detected but stucks at the point of unlocking it.

I kept the screen active and it worked after 40s
Basic stuff works , so god for daily usage I guess. Is rep on github up to date of this kernel because I compiled it myself and nothing worked. I either think my toolchain is the problem.

Also the governors do work , I don't know if all do but theres a noticeable performance change when chaging it. Over/Undercloking still doesnt work , but its not the kernels problem. The power genie of emui controls it.

Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC works.
I will test mobile data, GPS tomorrow.
"Bug": SIM unlock takes a lot more time than stock kernel.
Great work! May I ask what features are you going to add into? OTG maybe?
Anyway: Great! Keep it up!
EDIT:
How can I change governor? I'm looking for extra governos (PMC, Smartmax) in Kernel Auditor but I can't find them

none.
GBS is an modified version of franco.Kernel v19.4, original franco.Kernel code is heavily patched for the best performance. With this mod is added more battery life, some changes in kernel config, cpu spike on touch the screen fix, better axis inversion workaround, USB-transfer fix, Powertop/dmesg support, and for froyo based roms users, recharging with phone off fix.
- Recharging with phone off fixed. (mikos cyanogen based roms have a feature to: if the phone is off, when you plug the charger, it will power on the phone. The normal behaviour is to boot a system only to recharge phone. But mik has disabled it. SO, if you use devoid.#final this recharge while offline will work. if you use cyanogen, will not work.)

gbs.v20a
...blackscreen fix reverted
...more little touches on touchscreen driver
...deadline I/O scheduler as default

...axis inversion workaround off
...newfix, expect 50% cpu use on touch, smoothier.
...oldfix, expect 25% cpu use on touch, faster and battery saving.
gbs.v19.2
..faster (disabled some optimizations that are not helping at all)
..power drivers reverted
..temp reporting should be fixed

How to use it? Just download and Flash via ClockworkMod Recovery.
Remember:
This kernel is ONLY for LG Stock ROM 2.2, Void.#forever, devoid, miks 6.5.x, CyanogenMMatt 1.1...
WIPE DALVIK, BATTERY AND CACHE!
DONT FLASH 2 DIFFERENT ZIPS AT THE SAME TIME!
MAKE A REBOOT BEFORE EACH FLASH
If you are using AmonRa, disable signature before flashing.
NOT underclock below 480MHz. At lower speeds, wakeups-from-idle per second are bigger than 480MHz and they share the same voltage, so thats leads to more battery drain.
It's recomended to use: MIN 480 / MAX YOUR CHOICE

Curious findings thank you for taking the time to test all that ****. Tell me, why are you adding USB as a module?
Just to get the suspend mode that powertop recomends.

It's possible to suspend USB while it's not being used having it configured as a module?
I dont know for sure, since that p500 uses usb in slave mode.
But if this really works, as powertop says, i can get more battery life
So, lets test

i meant "flash" zram.zip... which was needed in fk... which is the base of this kernal.... and i was just asking!!!!!!!!!! sry about the typing error.....
Hi Fserve, thanks for your work, I have a question... You have removed things for keyboards, this means I can or cannot use a bluetooth keyboard? I'm asking this before purchasing such keyboard, thanks!

You can use! That keyboard option removed was an legacy linux hack thing to restart the computer via keyboard. (sysrq magic key)
About zram, it is enabled in the kernel, if you have flashed it in any version of franco.Kernel it will work here.
How?
Its simple, when you flash zram it will modify one part of your system, and kernel another. So you only need to reflash zram in case of wipe all data.

Other than that it's still my kernel. That's all the info I can give to you.
New version released. (IT'S ON THE FIRST PAGE)
V8 was compiled with -Os (to make a small kernel)
V12 was compiled with -O2 (to make a faster kernel)
V12 got cleaned up ethernet 10/100 drivers, some scsi drivers, some loggers, some debuggers, some useless stuff. for now, only bfs version.

FAQ
Q : With what ROM can I use this kernel ?
A : With any ROM based on Sony stock Marshmallow
Q : Your kernel isn't working / My phone isn't booting anymore
A : Read this whole post once more, search for your problem in thread and report it if you haven't found a solution.
Q : Can I install this kernel on locked bootloader ?
A : No ! This kernel is only for unlocked bootloader.
Q : Does this kernel include recovery ?
A : Yes ! You can access by pressing buttons when the led is lighting. Volume down to go to TWRP and Volume up to load recovery from FOTA..
Q : What are mpdecision and fast hotplug ?
A : This is what manage your cpu cores and decide which core will be online. Fast hotplug is a brand new hotplug that I wrote. See next post for more information

About Fast hotplug
Motivation
I wasn't convinced by show-p's msm_mpdecision nor faux123's intelli_plug ( I don't even talk about qcom mpdecision ). I also wanted to start working on a bigger programming project to learn more about kernel developing so I decided to write my own hotplug.
Main features
I tried to make fast hotplug the lightest possible, so that it consumes the less resources possible when it is not needed (mainly at idle). One of the second goals was to make it customizable.
How to use
Deactivate qcom mpdecision (Pimp my Z1 will do this automatically when you choose fast hotplug)
Activate fast_hotplug
Code:
adb shell "echo 1 > /sys/module/fast_hotplug/parameters/fast_hotplug_enabled"
Tune it to your liking
How to configure
Unfortunately, there isn't yet any user friendly application to configure fast hotplug. The only way to configure it is to manually edit the module files with adb or a file editor.
I modified Pimp my Z1 to be compatible with fast hotplug. You can find the modified version at post 12
You can also find all the parameters at
Code:
/sys/module/fast_hotplug/parameters/
and edit them with adb command
Code:
adb shell "echo [COLOR="Navy"]<value>[/COLOR] > /sys/module/fast_hotplug/parameters/[COLOR="Navy"]<variable_name>[/COLOR]"
You can configure the following parameters :
fast_hotplug_enabled : 0 for disabled, 1 for enabled
boost_duration : Duration of boost in ms when screen is touched
threshold_to_boost : Instead of automatically pluging in cores on touch, fast hotplug checks that the load is above this threshold. This avoid cores coming online when reading file or website.
max_cpu_on : Maximum number of online cpu when screen is on
min_cpu_on : Minimum number of online cpu when screen is on
idle_threshold : Threshold under which fast_hotplug will remain almost idle and won't perform any check. This applies when only 1 core is online
plug_in_core_X_threshold : with X between 1 and 3. This is the threshold to plug in coreX.
plug_in_core_X_delay : This is the number of fast_hotplug cycles (see refresh_rate) to skip before pluging in coreX.
plug_out_core_X_threshold : Like plug_in_core_X_threshold but to plug out.
plug_out_core_X_delay
refresh_rate : Time in ms between fast hotplugs checks
screen_off_singlecore : 1 for activated, 0 for deactivated; Allows only one core to be online when screen is off.
If you are using linux, you can easily change the configuration with this small program : https://github.com/pec0ra/fast_hotplug_controller
You will probably want to create init.d script to make your configuration stay after reboot. If enough users want it, I can create an example of script.
Bugs / stability
Due to some conflicts with qcom mpdecision, it is possible that you encounter some bugs / reboots when both are enabled.
Configuration doesn't stick after reboots
Help needed
If you are a java developer (or want to learn ) and want to help in developing an app (or editing an already existing one) to control the hotplug, please send me a pm
Please tell me your impression, your custom configuration and / or your recommendation so that I can make it better in future releases.
Good luck.
Will try as soon as I can. :good:

Regarding this, there is already an app out there that is FOSS, licensed under the GPLv2 license, looks sexy and should be easy to modify. It's called Pimp My Z1, I think it offers pretty much everything you want.
Other than that, cool that you're developing something new, I'll give it a shot!
Edit:
You may want to disable Sony's RIC it prevents you from writing to /system. This should help you.
I can't seen to get notification breath effect,i didn't do the mpdecision step,so could this make the diference?
Is this kernel compatible with franco kernel apps?

Regarding this, there is already an app out there that is FOSS, licensed under the GPLv2 license, looks sexy and should be easy to modify. It's called Pimp My Z1, I think it offers pretty much everything you want.
Other than that, cool that you're developing something new, I'll give it a shot!
Edit:
You may want to disable Sony's RIC it prevents you from writing to /system. This should help you.

Thank you for the link
I'll see if I can do something with this app when I have more time (I've never made any android app).
Disabling ric is a good idea I'll do this for next version.

No, mpdecision won't affect it. Have you tried it on YadliKernel ? Did it work for all the notifications ? It seems like on abricot kernel they work for most of the notifications but not for sms.

Is this kernel compatible with franco kernel apps?

It is probably compatible (I didn't tried it) but you will probably not be able to change most of the configurations since they are not implemented in my kernel. Some configuration from my kernel (like fast hotplug) are also not implemented in the app so you can't change them from there.

There's no printing in the mod I think so dmesg would be useless. I'll try again with WhatsApp. Have you tried it on other kernels? Was it working ?
Edit : ok, maybe there is an error... In this case dmesg could be useful. If you have time you can send it, yes.
And I reconfirm that it works for telegram
Hey, can someone show us the notification mod?
Pimp my Z1
As @B1nny suggested, I tried editing Pimp my Z1 to add fast hotplug support. Everything seems to work and I even added some tweaks for a better support for our Z2 ( some default values were not really compatible with our device ). There are probably bugs for configurations other than fast hotplug. If I have time, I will fix them but for now, please use another app to set your frequencies / governors / voltage or live with the bugs. If you have questions about the app, you could also take a look at the official thread to see if it is already there or maybe just to give the dev a thanks.
I'll probably make a pull request to @Androguide.fr with the changes but until then you can use my own build linked to this post. If you already have the app installed, you will have to uninstall it first because signature is different.
You can see the full source and the changes on my github : https://github.com/pec0ra/Pimp_my_Z1
Special thanks to @Androguide.fr for his great app and to @B1nny for his link
@pec0ra
Good news to have a new kernel dev for our beloved Z2 !
However, I've tried to flash your kernel, the flashing process seems to work correctly but actually I stay stuck to the last doomlord advanced stock kernel. Any suggestion ?

You should try to extract the .elf from the zip and flash it via fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash boot <name>.elf
Anyone else experiencing the same issue ? Maybe I did something wrong in my zip.

I think you mean the .img file instead of .elf.
Other than that, the kernel works fine for me. I did manually flash it via fastboot. (because I prefer to flash it via fastboot)
I took a quick look at your updater-script and compared it to Doomlord's updater-script and this is what I found:
Your script tries to write the kernel to this partition:
Code:
/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/Kernel
While Doomlord's script writes the kernel to this partition:
Code:
/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot
Maybe that's the culprit?

Yes, I meant .img. It seems like it'll take some time to get used to this new device. The kernel destination you pointed out is probably the issue, yes. And that's probably the notification problem too. Seems like the kernel never got flashed so it's logical that notification mod doesn't work...
I'll change this tomorrow morning
Maybe someone can test it until then.

That's due to Sony's RIC being enabled by default. If you look at my previous post where I mention it there is a command you can run in ADB to temporarily disable it, not ideal but it will help you rename the file.
Hi all,
some of you know me from the other OnePlus (One and Two) or Samsung devices areas, where I provide my kernels already for more than two years to OnePlus One, OnePlus Two, Galaxy S5, S3 and Note 10.1 users for all sort of platforms (Samsung, Cyanogenmod, Omnirom etc.)
Please note:
I am not heading to have as many features as possible implemented, this is not my design goal. If you are more into that, move on to other kernels. If you are searching for a good mix of improvements and new functions while not sacrificing stability, you are welcome here (see below the history section for more info).
Compatibility
Important: This kernel is only meant to be compatible with official OnePlus OOS and nothing else.
So when the kernel does not run on custom rom XYZ, do not even bother me with it or ask hundred times in the thread for compatibility.
I could not care less about it !!
Important notes
]When using new anykernel concept Boeffla-Kernel: Flash stock kernel of rom first !
Make sure you flash the correct kernel version, depending on whether you really use Oxygen OS or a different OS !!!
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.
Saying that, the Boeffla-Sound app in Play Store is not designed to work on the OPX, neither was it developed by me, hence it will never work on the OPX ever. Boeffla-Config is the way to go here !!!
Support
First read the FAQ section on the Homepage !!!
Click here to learn about all possible kernel settings in the config app (quite outdated, as it is focused on S3 still).
Click here to learn about using the config app (quite outdated, as it is focused on S3 still).
I will refuse to give support if you do any undervolting and experience freezes or hot reboots.
I will also not provide any support if you do not use Boeffla-Config app to tweak the kernel, other 3rd party tweaking apps are known (and intended) to cause issues.
I will refuse to give support if you have xposed framework installed and reporting any kind of weird issues. My opinion to xposed it quite clear: too powerful for >90% of the users that just mess up their system with it.
Otherwise, you can get in touch with me via the support e-mail address: [email protected]
Please provide kernel version, rom version, a detailed issue description and ideally supporting screenshots or log files.
Change logs
(you can also access them directly in Boeffla-Config V2 by pressing menu and selecting "change log...")

TCP Congestion changed to Westwood
Multiple additional TCP congestion algorithms available
Swap supported

Default entropies increased
Automatic EFS backup
Full support for mpdecision for best compatibility and smoothness (no min cpu frequency reset, use Boeffla-Config to configure min frequencies only)
Integrated full busybox 1.24.2 (own compilation)
Kernel initialisation log file (with history of 3 log files)
Emergency reset script automatically placed into /boeffla-kernel-data folder of your internal memory
Presets supported in Boeffla-Config by kernel (Extreme power, power, normal, battery friendly and battery saving)
Kexec hardboot patch for multirom usage (not supported, not fully working)
Google gcc 4.8 toolchain used for best stability
Always using latest Oxygen OS Initramfs
Always based on latest Oxygen OS kernel sources (https://github.com/OnePlusOSS/android_kernel_oneplus_msm8974)
Note: I do NOT upstream the kernel to higher Linux kernel versions anymore as this usually has zero benefit but likely introduces new issues + is a waste of effort in the end
Download
For all information and downloads (stable AND testing versions), visit the Boeffla-Kernel homepage:
www.boeffla.de
History and design targets
Basically I created my first Boeffla-Kernel in 2012 as there was no kernel for the Samsung Galaxy S3 around that had exactly the mix of functionalities that I wanted. I wanted to have full flexibility in undervolting and charge rates for instance, but did not like the sharpness and/or brightness tweaks many kernels have implemented as per default.
Hence, I began to create my own kernel after a while, adding all the features I like. This is the result of my work, which in the end I decided to share with you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. Also it does not aim to have the broadest feature set available everywhere.
It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
These design targets are also valid for the OnePlus kernel here!!!
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
things I do personally not need
things I do not like
things that are in any way dangerous
anything which is highly experimental
f2fs - it is known to cause various issues and compatibility problems
custom hotplugging algorithms
a CAF based kernel
anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
So do not even ask for it if it falls into the listed categories. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
And: I do not really care about benchmark numbers, they say almost nothing as long as something is not completely wrong. Important for me is the feel-good factor.
I am also not interested in gaming at all, so never expect a gamer kernel. It will just not happen...
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: Flash the correct kernel depending on whether you are using Oxygen OS or another rom !!!
Configuration of the kernel
To tweak and configure the kernel, manually load and install the app "Boeffla-Config V2" from the downloads section on www.boeffla.de.
You need at least version 2.2.29 or higher for the OnePlus X Boeffla Kernels.
Donation
If you like my work, feel free to donate: Donation-Link
If you donate at least 2,49 EUR (to be in line with the donation app prices on Google Play store), you will receive a personal donation code which unlocks some nice little comfort functions in Boeffla-Config V2 on top.
Source code
All sources can be found in my Github repository: http://github.com/andip71
Credits to developers
Of course, I had never been able to create all that by my own. So I want to give credits to the really good developers around, that have given me all the inspiration and from which I cherry picked lots of the implemented functionalities:
* ZaneZam
* Grarak
* Yank555
* Hardcore
* Chainfire
* AndreiLux
* Netarchy
* Gokhanmoral
* Simone201
* Mialwe
* Entropy512
* Faux
* Harunjo
* FranciscoFranco
* Ak
... I just hope I did not forget someone. If so, please let me know and I will add you of course.
Thanks to all of you for your great work !!!
Disclaimer
*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in your custom recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.
Cheers and enjoy

*** You want my support? Then stick to my rules ***
Guys, I am receiving more and more completely useless support requests in different threads. Useless because people provide nothing to be able to help, not even the minimal possible information they could give.
Hence, I will now remind anyone again on the support guide lines stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/support
Also you need to ensure you follow the installation guide lines incl. trouble-shooting stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/installation-how-to
And to cut a long story short: If you do not at least provide what I request in the support guide lines, I will IGNORE YOUR REQUESTS IN FUTURE.
Straight and simple. I have enough of people wasting my time just because they are too lazy to write details.
Period.
Also as a reminder:
you use xposed? -> no support, everything is your own issue
you use a custom rom and not the official stock or CM one? -> good luck, you are on your own
you undervolt or overclock? -> have fun, but without my support
Sorry, this might sound harsh (and it is meant to sound harsh), but you cannot imagine about how crappy support requests can be. Stating something does not work is just not enough.
Please consider that!!!
Andi
Great to have you here
Welcome Andi !!! Gonna flash your kernel as soon as I get my OPX .... Will make profiles for it too

You can flash on top of it as Boeffla kernel works on a different principle (Sorry.. I forgot what it is called... LOL... Maybe Andi can tell) .... But yeah, if issues come, flash stock and then the Boeffla (shouldn't happen though )

I don't wanna post on behalf of Andi... But if you have been following Andi , he usually builds for CM once official builds roll out with everything working... For now, there is no official build, though almost everything is working now...
But Boeffla is in initial phase of development for OPX so I feel lord will focus more on Oos...
In short, don't expect a CM version till official nightlies start.

You downloaded the wrong kernel ( you downloaded the OnePlus one variant) so don't flash it as it might brick your device.
Scroll a bit more down in the Web page till you find OnePlus X.
P.S. The website can be a bit confusing for newer members, so here you go.

no it was the opx variant, as the filename showed opx when i flashed it. thanks anyway, and yeah the website is a bit jumbled
but the problem was an old twrp version. updated it and the kernel flashed no problem . BTW i like ur icon pack, might try it
Can someone explain the difference between this kernel and blu-spark to us common people?
What do you take into consideration when deciding which one to use?
Hi Andi,
Good to have Boeffla kernel again!
The real deal just came to opx. Thanks, bro! Hope opx gets official cm so you can provide support for cm too, as I cannot live without cm.

You will need Kernel Adiutor (free from the play store) or similar app capable of allowing you to switch I/O schedulers and
CPU governors in order to be able to change and set those.
I can recommend this.

Nice, finally some new development for our phone =)
I will test the kernel right away...
One thing that I would really love would be if you have the time to look into adding DT2W :angel:
Thanks for your work so far :good:
*edit*
booting went well. However WiFi doesnt work for me :/ I uploaded the logcat-output filtered for "wifi" to hastebin. If you need anything else for debugging let me know. Thanks to dual boot I will keep your custom kernel on one ROM

Thanks for trying out the kernel. That's weird about the WiFi. I have never had that happen in the bunch of times I have flashed it. I will def look into it.I'll have a look at the log, although at this point I'm also not that great at interpreting those, so it may not help. I'll see what I can do though

*edit*
booting went well. However WiFi doesnt work for me :/ I uploaded the logcat-output filtered for "wifi" to hastebin. If you need anything else for debugging let me know. Thanks to dual boot I will keep your custom kernel on one ROM

OK,well after looking at the log and trying to decipher it and then thinking a bit I have only come up with one possibility.Maybe somehow your wpa_supplicant.conf file located in /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf has the wrong permissions for some reason.If you want you could try to check and possibly change the permissions.If you decide to try this I would backup the file because you never know.
The permissions should be: Owner - wifi Group - wifi...
Owner read and write/Group read and write/ others none.
If your permissions are correct on that file the only other thing I could possibly think of to do if you wanted would be to delete that file,wpa_supplicant.conf.Only after you back it up it though because you will lose all of your passwords,and reboot.It should recreate it.Do that at your own risk though.This is all I have come up with because I have never had that problem,so it's a bit difficult.
I am sorry, I think the error was my fault and not a bug of the kernel. I think the build that I am running at the moment is one I build myself and used sabermod toolchain. I remembered that I had the same problem using DMPKernel on that build. I thought I was using one of hennymmc's builds by now - so, sorry for reporting but thanks for looking into anyways.
Unfortunately I tried both and didnt solve the issue ,the permissions were set correctly btw.
I just installed the CM13 on another partition but - unless I have a flashable zip file - I can not install your kernel on that one. Would it be possible to provide the kernel as .zip?

Any chance this kernel hits the G800H for cm 13 too ?
I can be your tester

Hey, I appreciate the offer. That is something I can look into at some point. No promises. In still trying to learn all of this stuff.

I think you can do the same (using the cm13 kernel and DJ_Steve kernel stuff) as he has a G800H version of his kernel

Conducted any work on the development of the kernel? About sound problems and headphones like DJ_Steve , initially had no problems, and then there., maybe it depends on kernel version? Is there a chance to make all the improvements in version 3.4.39 ? (Google translation)

I actually haven't touched this recently at all.I've been spending too much time on the mess that is my AOSP build [emoji2]
I give up on that for now though.It's giving me a headache.
I will try to get back to this soon,as I don't even think it works with any of my builds.I don't know.I'm not even using this right now.
I never actually had any real audio issues with this however and I did use if for awhile,so that's strange.

Its such a strange thing how only some experience the robotic voice...and you have no microphone problems with ayke's build either? Like it stops working after a phone call?

Kernel Update!!
Thunderoar-Kernel 5.0 Codenamed "Angel Beats!"
Fix all issues regarding MTP not working
and random reboot, is this a comeback? xD, i don't know xD
It appears that my kernel uses a lot more memory than i expected,
Possibily some problem with memory patch in the kernel source
The workaround for this problem is you have to increase your disksize
In the kernel adiutor, if it stays at 300mb, it will not enough and cause a problem
Which is stuck or complete crash of device. Recommended size is 500mb or more if
you encountered it again and set swappiness into 60

Quick note on the crashing apps.
T113XXU0APE2: Does not have this issue
T113XXU0APH5: When I use this ROM, than indeed everything goes bananas after booting up the tablet.
Before flashing the kernel I advice to disable all unnecessary services and with that I mean everything with Samsung in the name and also all of the google apps you don't use. It seems that com.google.process.gapps is causing a crash chain reaction so do disable this services as first. I'm using lucky Patcher for disabling services and for those who are unfamiliar with this my advice is to not uninstall an app but first disable it and later when you are satisfied you than may safely uninstall the unwanted app/service.
Bugs
Camera doesn't working
My apps continue to crash in the latest version Also after a Dalvik wipe.

Wanted to ask (not that it's a huge deal) is there init.d support in this kernel?
If so do I need to do anything special to enable it?
Going to go ahead with it anyway and see what happens!

....Nah, it's all good. :highfive: I screwed things up all on my own by getting flash-happy. :crying:
On the plus side: It worked GREAT! :highfive: Thanks so much for putting this together for us tiny-tab users, you did a great job.
Not only did Byron (my T113's name) run smoother and faster than I've seen yet (yay!), but suddenly Mounts2SD had no issues whatsoever. Up till now it's been a supreme struggle to get /sd-ext to mount properly, to be used properly, etc. etc. - but after flashing this kernel, on first boot boom, everything just worked. Without changing anything I'd already done.
Should have just left it the way it was, eh? But noooo, I had to go "try something else" and made a stupid mistake somewhere, and now no combination of ROM / kernel / nandroid backup (meticulously organized and annotated) is booting up. I even lost TWRP for a little bit.... As penance for my sin of wanting "more", I've gotta dig up Odin, go back to stock, and start from scratch.
SO! QUESTION FOR YOU! (OR ANYBODY REALLY....)
When I fire up Odin and restore the official stock ROM (eg from Sammobile or Samsung), does that include the stock kernel too?
If the stock kernel IS a separate file, where should I look? (Your OP for the T116 kernel includes a link for that model, but not OP in here. I'm sure I can find it on my own but right now I'm just whiny.)
Not going to wait for an answer/s before moving ahead, but any response here will serve as documentation for myself and others in future!
(How don't we have a smiley for "pointing finger"? There's at least TWO in Unicode but I'm too lazy to go get it right now....)

The kernel is in the md5 file or in the zip file, named boot.img
That's awesome to know, and came to the same conclusion when stock setup started asking personal questions and wanted a wifi password. Rooting it this very moment, though if I'd waited *just* a little longer I wouldn't have to. Wow you're fast!
That boot.img file info will come in handy when I screw up on any ROM, thanks! This one is going ASAP into a safe and accessible place for "just in case"....
Hey, I've always wondered and maybe you can tell me:
When flashing this type of file in recovery or adb, does the filename matter? If I rename it "T113-[build]-boot.img" for example, will anything go wrong?
Feel free to point me elsewhere to learn more about how these things work, I've followed a lot of guides but want to understand the "why" as well.

I do believe that when flashing a boot.img through TWRP with the image flasher, the file needs to say boot.img I may be wrong but I had issues before when I changed the name of the file to keep track of which one it was....lol... I have since started putting the boot.img files in their own folders with the appropriate name on the folder.
By the way, great to see development on this tablet. I am going to be testing this kernel in a personal build and see if I can squeeze as much out of it as I can get. So thank you dev.. Awesome work and greatly appreciated. : )

So I've run into a bit of a problem. Tried outFyrestone ROM and i love it, but it's based on PH5 firmware and doesn't play nice with your wonderful kernel. Which means my sd-ext is broken...

I get it, it clutters things s bit. But I am one who like an organized setup anyways so adding more folders is common for me. It may not be everyone's cup of tea so to speak.
But on my PC and in my external SD , on my tablet, I have a folder named tab "what ever", then inside there are folders named mods, ROMs, kernels and then gaops. In the kernel folder I have sub folders for just this reason and those folders will have the kernel name on it and then inside will be the standard "boot.img"..
It works for me and above all, works for TWRP.

My apologies for not being more clear on what exactly 'frightens' me about this idea. There have been times when I've backed things up this way and couldn't get into them again because of the number of characters in the path and file name - they were just too long!
Mind you, this was tens of years ago on WinXP and it never occurred to me to try finding a fix.

That's a fantastic system, very similar to the one I'm now using, and will add new folders as you've suggested. Hopefully reading this will benefit those who are new to this world so they don't wind up with folders full of mysterious files and untagged backups for various devices, that made perfect sense at the time. (Like the one folder for my first few devices, which now looks like gobbledygook....)
Lollipop ROM for T113 (Samsung Tab 3 lite "7 wifi-only)
Topic:
Lollipop ROM for T113 (Samsung Tab 3 lite "7 wifi-only)
Is there any lollipop/marsmallow/Nougat ä ROM that works in my T113 (Samsung tab 3 lite "7)? This device runs natively Android 4.4.4, but I Really need Android 5 or higher! Lollipop would do just fine.. I took a look at most popular custom roms to this device, but most were 4.x.x.. And nothing for t113! And all of those were to T221 or so, in the list they're were few supporting T110/T111, but now T113. Does those work in this T113? Isn't it just same device?
Please tell me if you have any idea of rom with Android 5 or newer that works in this T113!
It would be awesome to have Lollipop-Slimrom or Resurrection remix with Android 5/6/7..
Even Stock Lollipop would be adequate, android 4 lacks important features...
There's many roms to this device, but they are for T2XX or T110/T111... Does any of those run in t113?
I have already rooted this tablet and installed TWRP.
Thank you so much for help in advance! Any information that gets me closer to have Lollipop or newer is very very much appreciated!
Sincerely,
tatu-o aka. mlc

It varies, sometimes when flashing thing through adb or recovery with filename had a space in it, it would not detect it cuz the name is spaced and separated and it didn't recognize it as a file cuz the file extension doesn't connected to the name cuz it separated/spaced.

Good to know! I've had so many issues over the years, with spaces in filenames, that any renames for files like this get an underscore or dash instead of spaces. Helps in lots of other ways, too.
