F4ktion Kernel Configs
About fastcharge:
For fastcharge voltage configuration use this through terminal or console or you can use FauxClock app.
Code:
To [B]enable[/B] it use:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/fast_charge/force_fast_charge
For [B]USB 2.0 [/B]use [B]500mA[/B] as [B]MAX[/B]
echo 500 > /sys/kernel/fast_charge/fast_charge_level
For [B]USB 3.0[/B] use [B]700mA[/B] or [B]900mA[/B] as [B]MAX[/B]
echo 900 > /sys/kernel/fast_charge/fast_charge_level
For [B]wallcharger[/B] use from [B]900mA[/B], [B]1100mA[/B], [B]1300mA[/B] to [B]1500mA[/B] as top
Warning: incorrect use of voltage could damage your phone or USB ports
About hardlimit:
Hardlimit will limit max frequency to stock, use latest PerformanceControl app, compiled by @h0rn3t with support for Hardlimit feature, just use sliders to set your desired OC and hardlimit frequency
For mm Dynamic management of dirty page writebacks or Dynamic Fsync use PerformanceControl too.

F.A.Q
Q : Does this support Prometheus V2 ?
A : No, this only supports NEW OneUI roms released in august 2019 and up
Q : I dont have lockscreen working
A : you have a very old bootloader, update it
Q : I dot have working simcard
A : You have a very old bootloader/modem update them both
Q : What benefits Does this have over stock kernel ?
A : This kernel is aimed at Android enthusiasts who like to get the most out of their phones. But also is user friendly and pre customized for the average user to figure it out
Q : Can i use Kernel Auditor ?
A : Yes, but to utilized the full potential of this kernel including overclock and many more, you should use HKtweaks from here
Q : What is Overclocking ?
A : Basically, Slightly more performance For an extra consumption in battery. you can google it for more details
Q : Is it safe to overclock ?
A : ive tested the kernel on the Max over clock setting (Without turning off the 4 big cores) without any problems for a month
Q : What is SamsungHotplug ?
A : its a feature from samsung that Auto-Disables Inactive Big Cores to reduce power consumption. it has been disabled due to wasted performance
Q : Does this kernel Pass SafteyNet ?
A : Yes, The kernel has all the needed bypasses already so it can even bypass safteynet without Magisk
Q : Can i use Knox Apps ?
A : No, You cant use secure Storage, However it has PirvateMode Support built in (if your ROM supports it too)
Q : Can i use this on Stock Rom ?
A : Yes, it works on both Stock 9.0 and custom Roms made after August 2019
congratulation brother....all the best luck

It means the exact opposite.
Secure folder doesn't work at the moment with root let alone a custom kernel.
The only option is to use private mod when a custom rom comes with it.
Thanks, its working like a charm

How many users are there in this kernel and what is it with custom ROM?
* Go to User Statistics.
With this kernel, the following information is sent once to the developer's server at boot time.
variant, android serial number(not device serial), name of current firmware(ROM), country code, kernel version
* This information is Android apps can see without any special permissions.
* If you suspect other information transfer, open the '/res/synapse/actions/addon' file.
Description for AOSP ROMs
If you are using another developer's custom kernel, or if using ramdisk is corrupted kernel, you may encounter a bootloop or an unknown problem.
If you have a bootloop problem, flash the PRIME kernel after first flashing the builtin kernel in your ROM. (Or flash the ROM again)
This kernel is flashed AnyKernel method, for all kinds of AOSP ROM support.

Create the '/sdcard(internal storage)/Synapse/do_not_force_install' file.
* MTweak can not support all the features of this kernel.
* Synapse is somewhat unstable, but it is the best solution for a custom kernel.
I have deleted the synapse file with root from the intern sd but there is coming back.
An when i install this kernel the i have no volte icon in the statusbar.

if you create a 'do_not_force_install' file in /sdcard/Synapse folder, Synapse does not install automatically.
the problem with voLTE is that my device is G930K(Korean variant). i can not test for the carriers in all countries.
please try to use v1.3.0 and tell me if it is voLTE.

Releases and Changelog
Quantic-Kernel reborn
What's this kernel:
It's a new concept kernel as the usual, this is focused on a improved UI experience to feel the smoothness of a Pixel device.
It's based on latest CAFEST base of sm8150 with clean code, including a several backports from 4.19 CAFEST kernels into the scheduler, making the optimum approach to low jank and jitter experience.
Working over WALT scheduler following the recommendations of CAF:
- CONFIG_HZ=100 instead of 300 used on most custom kernels out there
- SchedTune predictions.
- No AOSP overlayed code
- No riced code inside.
Quantic puts it's enhancements on:
- Backported Wireguard module to July
- ExFAT compatible OTG Devices
- LZ4 Crypto upgraded
- 2GB ZRAM for the best multitask experience
- heavily adapted scheduler aligned with CAF recommendations.
- CAF energy management by default instead of Xioami's.
- GPU OC Temporary disabled (will be ready next update until upstream arrives)
- Recalculated EAS Capacity in DTS
- Latest Long Term Support 4.14.193
- Latest tag for sm8150
- In kernel boosting drivers rather than common CAF Boost that causes massive task migration impacting performance and battery life.
- Battery life improved drastically
NOTES:
- BUGS: NONE SO FAR.. (You tell me?)
- Flash over the ROM stock kernel.
- This kernel works perfect aligned with my latest AOSiP build ?
- Screen OC will be added on next build
- Edit : Added Hotfix version

Quantic-Kernel Hotfix-v1.1
Temporary removed Spectrum, as is the known bad guy that is causing trouble with some people dissapearing fingerprint on display
People that doesn't have problems with fingerprint can stay on v1.0 without problem, this update is made to restore fingerprint.
Please restore your boot and dtbo partition backup made on twrp and then flash the kernel (no need to reflash magisk as I'm not touching ramdisk anymore because no spectrum)
Thanks to Peter Jakson for testing the fixed version Apologizes to everyone for the inconvenience

Kernel Modules INFO
Introducing schedION governor
schedION is a governor developed by me, it's main purpose is to save battery with PELT Scheduler, you can play game with lower drain and heat, performance still better than stock kernel. This is governor is activated selection "schedion" on the tree clusters and ONLY on PELT edition.
Introducing Spectrum profiles
Spectrum is a simple kernel manager app created by @frap129 in 2017 supporting kernels since Android 5.0 Lollipop, its very special because allows the kernel dev to ship a kernel with preconfigured profiles, with balance, battery, performance and gaming mode, so you can try the best setup made for the kernel without manipulating any kernel variable using others kernel managers.
Spectrum is shipped with Quantic-Kernel since version 1.0, prior versions doesn't support it: like pre-releases and RC.
Spectrum profiles can be applied using Spectrum from Playstore
Spectrum profiles can be applied using smartpack from Playstore
This kernel is going really good and some other good features are coming on next builds. All should try rn.
Thank you, it's working as expected.
Thank you. Tried with latest 11.0.5 stable and worked fine

That's because stock crDroid kernel hasn't the newest changes of fp made by markakash, please try to delete your saved fingerprint and add it again, should work normally.

I expected that, fp scanner differs between AOSP and MIUI, I'll try to make something to let fp work but big chances are that it would not work.

Thanks for feedback, I have bad news, xiaomi changed the FP implementation on 11.0.5 and source code hasn't released, so I can't make anything to make it work until xiaomi release the sc, you can try with another version such as 11.0.2
Using pixel experience but fingerprint disappeared after flashing this
Ty Mate. Kernel is so good working.
Hello
The smoothness and battery on this kernel + pixel experience are fantastic (10-11% screen on drain and 0.3-0.6% screen off) but I've got a problem with the 835mhz oc of the GPU.
On 835 it crashes on 3d apps right away (games and AnTuTu) while on 735 it is smooth and stable.
Is it because if the aosp rom or just the fact that the gpu is not stable at 835? Thanks.
Using the kernel along with Pixel Experience ROM, FP works well, no random reboot. And this kernel has something that I'm looking for, 735 MHz GPU. Sometimes my phone stuttered using the 835 MHz, that's why the 735 is really important instead of the 675 MHz ones. Thank you dev!
Kintsugi
Kintsugi is the first custom kernel project I've worked on and I am proud to finally release it. Its name comes from the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery using powdered gold or silver, and I would say that it fitted the philosophy of my work. It wouldn't have come to life without my use of several developers' contributions. Finally, I aimed for a balance between performance and battery life in order to offer a stable user experience.

Hello,
No, you don't have to. You can install the custom kernel without it.
What about a version for the A40? They even have the same SoC
Can you add instructions for how can the .img be flashed with Odin?
