Dear folks, today I'm presenting my very own custom kernel for the Galaxy A5 and A7 2017!
This kernel provides many features and a lot of customization.
*To change settings, it's recommended to use HkTweaks by @corsicanu
because it is made especially for Exynos7880 devices. Other apps like kernel adiutor or Mtweaks
do work too, but they may miss some settings.[/CODE]
DISCLAIMER
Code:
*Im NOT responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards or any damage done to your device.
Compatibility
This kernel is compatible to all variations of A5 2017 and A7 2017.
Only A520F is well tested as I have this device.
Features
Latest A720SKSU5CTL2 kernel release
Linux 3.18.140
Support for AOSP 12, AOSP 11.0, AOSP 10.0, Treble 11.0, Treble 10.0 and Rise-Q

Working Great with pixel experience ROM, I've upped the voltage on GPU and CPUs , Played COD mobile default all is good , used GLtools to get max graphics , and again all is good
Just flashed it. Already encountered a bug, hk keeps on loading. Looking forward on your developments. Good luck
And unlocking the phone through fingerprint seems slower now for some reason. Opening apps is also slower now. Btw im using Google pixel Pie Plus
Flashed it and working good so far. I think you're the first to make a custom AOSP kernel for this phone.
Magisk 20 is working for me, it just takes a few tries to boot sometimes.

Unlocking the phone takes longer because the CPU clocks down on all cores when the screen is off. Therefore it needs longer to unlock. At least this is the explanation that makes the most sense.
That apps are opening slowly sometimes is also a bug I encountered, forgot to mention it in my OP thread. This can be fixed by simply reinstalling/updating the app or doing a clean flash (install ROM, then kernel right after)

Hotplug in general
I'm laughing so hard thinking of this title as "Riiiiise and Shiiiine" Project
Good work btw
With crDroid and this kernel, I got 106k in antutu. I love the fast charging too. Such an upgrade compared to "stock" aosp.
Latecomer... flashed and rebooted first time on Magisk 20 using crDroid
Going to have a play with some features and report back if I find anything useful.
Thanks Simon

97117 for me. Going to tinker then have another go. Best score I've ever had on this device though.
Replacing the device soon though

So far so good. Been trying some settings I had on my Xperia SP about 4 years ago and they seem to be working well for a balance of performance and battery.
Simply put:
CPU governor - Interactive (max and min frequencies set at maximum and minimum accordingly)
I/O scheduler - Fiops with Internal Storage read ahead set to 1024KB
I/O scheduler - bfq with External storage read ahead set to 1024KB
No CPU hotplug (really only useful for stock Sammy kernel)
That's it
Feel free to try and report back with your own findings.
I'm finding little lag now (was getting some really big lags and micro freezes) and battery draining slower

My results was with GPU overvoltaged and no apps other than hKtweaks, magisk and antutu. So hardly real world.

Version Information
Status: Stable
Current Stable Version: 2.4.2
Current Beta Version: 3.1.0
Created 2017-02-26
Last Updated 2017-07-26
Changelogs
While searching the Internet you might also find versions which aren't listed here: these are Beta versions and their changelog isn't available (but included in the one of the next stable version, so you don't miss anything).
All the changes I made are listed on GitHub.
Version 2.4.2
Code:
- update sdcardfs
- updated build scripts and recovery scripts
- changed toolchain to a better version (Linaro Android gcc 6.3.1)
- widely improved ramdisk scripts
- updated ramdisk to latest version from RR with 7.1.2 support
Changelogs for previous versions:
Version 2.4.0
Code:
- updated with latest Linux patches
- various fixes (including thermal management and network communication)
Version 2.3.0
Code:
I'm constantly working to provide a better kernel. This implies a lot of research, testing and stressing my eyes staring at code. I'm adding a lot of small fixes.
So, try to understand me if I don't always have time to report a changelog.
As always, you can check GitHub for a detailed changelog.
Version 2.2.1
Code:
Sorry if I didn't write down a changelog for the last releases, I've been quite busy.
Anyway: since version 2.1.6b there are a LOT of changes, performance, battery, stability... Just check it out (and check GitHub for a full changelog).
Version 2.1.6b
Code:
- updated busybox and sqlite3 binaries with more convenient versions
- changed optimizations, enabled safety features and possibly fixed f2fs cryptography
- getting ready for the Synapse restyling
- build the kernel uncompressed
The latter fix solves most lagging issues and noticeably improve performance over compressed version; I'll look into the kernel size issue soon!
Version 2.1.5
Code:
- ramdisk rebased over RR's one
- kernel size reduced
Version 2.1.4
Code:
- updated interactive governor with Samsung optimized version
- implemented the AMOLED flicker free patch
- updated ramdisk for both herolte and hero2lte to the one from latest LineageOS builds
- updated ramdisk to be compatible with SlimROM (untested)
- removed a few redundant tweaks
- fireactive it's on its way to debut, but still disabled because incomplete, sorry :(
Version 2.1.2
Code:
- init: added a few tweaks
- ramdisk: changes in sepolicy
- ramdisk: try to fool safetynet and fix wakelocks
- updated to DQBO kernel source
- fstab: reworked mount options
- fs: add exfat support
- fs: implement optimised and stable f2fs (from oneplus/QC8996_N)
- enabled Swap (I had the idea while looking into the OP3 sources)
Version 2.1.0
Code:
Many beta versions came before this one, and all of them had their list of fixes... I'll try to summarize:
- some configs were tweaked
- enabled init.d support
- Synapse support
- implemented elementalx
- various fixes
- faked Knox 0x0 and try to hide from SafetyNet
- switched back to cfq as default scheduler
- probably other stuff I can't remember now... I need to sleep ahahah
Version 1.2.4
Code:
- temporarily reverted to Linux 3.18.14 (and so fixed the video playback issue)
- updated mount options to reduce I/O overhead
- tweaked the kernel configuration to have better performance
- enabled additional compression algorithms and cryptography utilities
Version 1.2.3
Code:
- updated zen sched driver to version 1.1
- SELinux is now set to Permissive by default
Version 1.2.2
Code:
- now using zen as default I/O scheduler
- changed the default frequency range for the CPU
- updated to Linux 3.18.17 (still working to bring the latest patches)
- switched to a custom Makefile optimised for our architecture
Version 1.2.0
Code:
- overclock and underclock support for both CPU and GPU
- voltage control (see notes in the OP [B][**][/B])
- moved to Uber Toolchain 7.x (aarch64-linux-android-7.x)
- improved recovery installation script
Version 1.1.0
Code:
- First public release
[TUTORIAL] How to set up your phone with f2fs
1) First you have to install a compatible recovery. Recent TWRP releases can format and mount f2fs, but they don't handle a few installation scripts correcty. I recommend TWRP 3.0.2-4 by @lyapota which has the correct patches. You can find it here.
2) Then you have to backup all your data (internal storage will be wiped too, so make sure to copy ALL your files in the INTERNAL storage). So, any TWRP backup should be taken on external SD card.
3) After this, reboot into TWRP. From Wipe / Advanced Wipe check only /data, then select Change Filesystem and check f2fs. Do the same for /cache. At the moment I don't think there are ROMs that support f2fs on /system too (LineageOS, for example, forces ext4 and formats despite settings).
4) Reboot into recovery once again, so we're sure that it can mount everything.
5) At this point you're done. Flash your ROM of choice, this kernel, any GApps and whatever you want.
Reboot and profit!
ROMs supporting f2fs formatted /system will be listed here when available.
Awesome. Will this make oasp run better as there based on proper drivers etc? Can this improve the camera? Sorry for questions I have really messed with aosp on s7e yet

The idea is to have more customizations, features and overall a better user experience than the kernel the maintainers of our device provide. The changes I made are listed under features.

Yes. It's a simple .zip that just flashes the kernel (not rooting or anything, but maybe in a future I can upgrade to an aroma installer).

I just posted in another thread regarding use of your kernel
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7...extended-rom-v3-1-t3559696/page4#post71203867
I had hoped that using your kernel would allow for full functionality of Magisk -- unfortunately it did not
I really think that since Magisk works well with Stock ROMs it has to do with repacking of the boot img
Hopefully you would be willing to touch base with @topjohnwu to work on obtaining full Magisk compatibility with AOSP Galaxy S7 Edge ROMs
Thanks for you work
wow! thanks so much was hoping for a custom kernel for AOSP! i hope you will consider adding undervolting and synapse support. Thanks for your efforts!

The next in my to-do list are underclock and overclock, followed by voltage control.
I flashed it right now on RR . and im impressed as its smooth af. Im not too sure about battery life , but i fully admit its improvement on performence . good job dev . keep it going

Frequently asked questions
1.1 Q: I am having an issue, can you help me?
1.1 A: I am not an amazing kernel developer but I will certainly try my best. First, start by reading the release posts, as I may make note of a particular issue. Also search the thread to see if I have discussed it before. If you see nothing, please provide me with a dmesg/last_kmsg and logcat, your ROM/kernel version, and a detailed description of the issue, following this guide. If I can't reproduce reliably though, I'm not going to fix the issue.
1.2 Q: Can you add xyz feature?
1.2 A: If you link me the commits or tell me what kernel you had the feature in, I can take a look at them. I will not go digging super hard for commits and I will ignore requests that don't include this information. I won't promise that I will merge every request but I will always take it into consideration.
1.3 Q: How do I control the kernel?
1.3 A: I'd recommend using either @flar2's EX Kernel Manager or @Yoinx's Kernel Adiutor-Mod; both are extremely solid and have given me no issues.
1.4 Q: What ROM are you on? What are your settings?
1.4 A: Currently, I am on AICP and my settings are available here here
1.5 Q: OMFG MY BATTERY SUXXXX PLS FIX!!!
1.5 A: The kernel doesn't drain any battery, use an app like BetterBatteryStats to figure out what app is screwing with your phone.
1.6 Q: Does it boot in BlackscreenOS ?
1.6 A: I don't know. You can try.
1.8 Q: Can you add Quick Charge support ?
1.8 A: No.
1.9 Q: Bro, i have kate variant, can i use it ?
1.9 A: Of course.
2.0 Q: QC support ?
2.0 A: Don't be ridiculous.
2.2 Q: How about GCC 7 support ?
2.2 A: Currently, GCC 7 cannot be booted on kenzo.
2.3 Q: Why it shows me random max frequencies?
2.3 A: If you're using LOS Based rom is an expected behaviour, don't worry, it won't ruin your performance, is same as before.
2.4 Q: Slow charge bro please fix!
2.4 A: Bro pl0x upd8te fermware.
2.5 Q: Core 6 is offline bro!
2.5 A: Really? wew, enable it and make it default at boot.
2.6 Q: Where i can find you sur?
2.6 A: Either on Telegram(My XDA Username) or G+ sur.

sum moar kenzo kernul pls sur dev
Always happy to see more upstream kernels cropping up around the place
Thanks for this awesome kernel It is a nice thing to see a good developer works on a kernel for redmi note 3. I didnt want to use elementalx cuz of lack of upstream and now you came up with this. And the reason why i dont wanna use other kernels is they have so many patches that dont have a impact on performance in my opinion.
Ty :good:
wew, despacito it's here
Very good kernel :fingers-crossed:
6.4 de
Wow. Great to see you here Aex (oops missed l)
It's amazing
thanks for your work
I got around 2000 ma for charging so that's great and it's faster somehow on Aex rom
don't stop supporting it
Wow. Another kernel for Kenzo. Thank you so much dev. Gonna try this definitely. ?
Wow, nice work, new kernel [emoji7]

Yay, another kernel! Might try this and switch from EX kernel... Keep it up dev/bro!
Support IR? @GeekDragon
Im using RR, but Dominator dont support IR, so i replace the kernel with ElementalX,
Just to use MI Remote,
otherwise i always prefer Stock kernel that Comes with the ROM.

Introduction
Oxygen Kernel is based on stock Samsung source code taken from Samsung Opensource Release Center with sole aim to provide better performance, stablity and battery backup than stock kernel. A kernel tells the hardware in your Android device how to behave, kind of like your mommy tells you how to behave. You can modify how fast your processor runs by over or under clocking it or optimize your system for battery life.
Oxygen Kernel is always up-to-date with latest patches from kernel.org
Known for maximum stability and smooth performance
All the Source Code is available on github
Kernel Info

These features are only available through Oxygen Control App
Download Oxygen Control from Github Releases
Warning: If you come from some other custom kernel or have any issues, you should dirty flash your ROM before flashing Oxygen Kernel to avoid problems.
Reflash ROM -> Flash Oxygen Kernel --> Flash Magisk if you want to root
If you are upgrading between Oxygen Kernel versions, just flash the kernel zip. Also uninstall or clean data of any kernel control app you're using.
Going back to stock: You can backup your boot.img with TWRP before flashing Oxygen Kernel and restore the backup whenever you want to revert.
1] This kernel removes forced encryption, if you face "encryption process failed" error upon reboot then you need to format /data. This is generally needed if you are installing this kernel on stock tw rom.
2] In OneUI Pie ROMs you may get a warning at boot saying "There's an internal problem with your device". You can safely ignore this warning and causes no harm. It's due to some mismatching KNOX/mobicore stuff. I'll fix it soon.

If you're on stock rom then it should turn on the real flash. If on custom rom then kindly ask the dev to add support in rom

Does it work if u flash back stock kernel? Actually the kennel would not affect camera filters. Maybe check your rom for the act.
can i use this in 6.0?

The Infinity Kernel is a custom kernel for Redmi 4A (rolex) and Redmi 5A (riva).
For Redmi 4A and Redmi 5A, from Team Infinity!
Code:
#include "std_disclaimer.h"
/*
* Your warranty is void.
*
* Team Infinity is not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this kernel
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger us me for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.
*/
Steps to flash:
1. Clear Kernel Auditor's data.
2. Wipe "Dalvik Cache" and "Cache".
3. Flash kernel.
4. Reboot.
Configuring the kernel:
Please use "alucard" governor instead of "interactive".
Other than that, we can't give any other advice. We already have our recommendations set as default.
Bugs:
OREO VERSION:
Murali tree based ROMs may give an error at boot. It doesn't affect functionality, though. Most likely a bug in the device tree itself.
"ondemand" CPU governor is pretty broken but it shouldn't be used anyway. "interactive" is the way to go.
We couldn't find any other, tell us if you do!
NOUGAT VERSION:
Overclocking to 1.57GHz doesn't work for now. (We fixed this on Oreo and will fix this on Nougat too. Sometime.)
Wi-Fi in some ROMs seems to be broken, since those ROMs require Wi-Fi driver built into the kernel itself. (ROM specific bug.)
Also, turning on the option to schedule workload on awake CPUs to save battery is causing CPU frequency to fall to 200MHz when phone is idle and is not letting it scale back to normal when phone is unlocked, so we strongly advise you not to turn this option on in CPU settings for a better experience.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q: My kernel is acting weird!
A: Please do a "Dalvik cache + cache" wipe, reinstall Infinity Kernel and clear Kernel Auditor's data. If this didn't solve your problem, reach us on this Telegram group.
Q: My backlight doesn't turn off when screen is off!
A: Install the latest MIUI firmware for your device (recommended) or install this firmware (newer, try this first) or this firmware (older, only if the newer one doesn't work) (at your own risk, of course) if you haven't already or if your ROM doesn't do that automatically.. That'll fix the backlight bug in custom ROMs.

Both as a matter of fact.
Is there (or do you have any plans on adding) sound control and more CPU governors?
Btw, thanks for the hard work!
Work great on MIUI9 V9.2.6.0. Do you can push the CPU clock @ 1.7 ~1.8 GHZ?
Great work.
Thank you all, I had a lot of help from experienced developers. The encouragement really helps!

In due course probably, Team Infinity is still quite new and we are learning. As soon as we are successful, we will add a host of new features. As for sound control, you can control microphone and headphone gains.

Very few users are facing this bug, I suggest you join the Telegram Global group at t.me/redmi_4a for extensive help. Also try flashing a new ROM (dirty flash) or try flashing MIUI AM firmware before flashing kernel. These have been known to fix such issues. If we might suggest try ROMs like Citrus CAF, crDroid, DotOS, etcetera. Often some ROMs are causing problems but others work perfectly mostly because the were created before the kernel was made and are incompatible.
What's new in v4.5? Or is the 4.0 changelog for 4.5?
Thanks btw.

Read carefully, version 4.5 and 4 Changelogs are clearly mentioned. Changelogs by nature only document changes, so features listed in changelogs for previous versions are also present in latest version.

Wifi drivers
Could you guys can add external wifi card support over otg which will be considered as wlan1 which will help net Hunter users
CPU doesn't go to 1.57GHz. Option is avaiable in Kernel, but inapplicable.
I use this variant of Kernel Adiutor:

16.8.0: Removed most debugging stuff, toned down FP, updated a few other areas.
16.7.0: Fixed the data corruption issue, reworked some things. Calmed down CPU, Pocket Protection works again.
16.6.0: Rebuilt from previous edition. Smoother and faster.
16.4.0: Rebuilt from scratch under fresh new source.
16.3.0: This kernel is being released as is, I made many many changes, I would take heed
when installing this kernel, keep an eye on it. Some things I am not very happy about.
(Then why release? Because I need to make sure its not just me.)
16.1.9: Re-based Kernel, made some cosmetic changes, also reworked defconfig,
Gesture Controls for AOSP based ROMs, will not work, But OOS it will.
WiFi has been tested to work on .10 but many have complained that it will
only work when they upgrade to .11 (Keep this in mind when you report problem)
16.5.0: Both Stock and Custom AOSP Gestures work, (depending on your ROM)
16.1.0: New Download Location added: Also, this is probably my best release yet.
qcacld-3.0 is now compiled inline with Kernel.
Attention
This is strictly created for OOS, but it has been tested on Custom AOSP based ROMs,
on AOSP, everything works, But WiFi and Gestures, (WiFi uses stock WLAN module) (Gestures, need the API, I never added yet)
One day I will add that in the near future if people on AOSP based ROMs request so.

Nice to have another kernel with good set of options. Is this for OOS/HOS or custom ROMs? You might want to specify it in OP
@Eliminater74
Glad to see you here. I'm excited what you make possible on the OnePlus 6.
Best Regard's

Lets give it a try right now ! an see how the beast behaves
Why when I want boot into TWRP it freeze at twrp logo?
I been working on making This Kernel OMNI, meaning to work on both AOSP and OOS..... Had it tested on AOSP under 2 dif custom roms, and only thing that was wrong was WIFI not working, and Gestures not working,
reason WIFI not working, because I used STOCK module, as for gestures, because I am using STOCK gestures implantation.. I need to add the custom AOSP Kernel API for gestures then gestures will also work on custom roms..........
As for WIFI, I maged to get qcacld-3.0 to build and compile with kernel, Booted up, and seems to be working, because the stock module shows empty when I check with 'lsmod'...
but I do have wifi, so the built into kernel qcacld-3.0 wifi seems to work fully........ But I need to keep my eye on it and test it out.......... see what lays ahead............. If all checks out.
ill be releasing next build with built in wifi.. and get other peepz opinions..
Pressing the fingerprint is mapped as a home buttons....
How can I disable this ?
Also thanks for this amazing kernel.
Damn, your kernel was dope on LG G3 coupled with XenonHD ... Gonna give it a try !
Update: Nebula Kernel 16.1.0
Get it in Downloads........
Thank you. It would be great to be able to use this kernel with AOSP as well. If a single image is not achievable, other developers approach was to include an image for OOS/HOS and another for custom ROMs in the same zip, to overcome the incompatibility issue. Anykernel2 can detect the OS and flash the right image.
Read up a few posts. He's working on it.
Will try.

Yeah im not into detecting OS and having 2 DTB's in ZIP.. I think thats just pointless, I know this kernel at its earlier stages was tested on AOSP based rom, and only thing that didnt work was wifi and gestures.
I have solved the WIFI issue but building qcald-3.0 inline with kernel, and it seems to work.. many changes done to the qcald for it to work like that.. anyhow.........
next is gestures which is pretty easy to fix. but I dont wanna lose STOCK gestures support, so im trying to figure out a way to keep them both together.
