This is SomeFeaK kernel, based on Squid2's kernel for device codename "osprey".
This is the first time I build a kernel, also, the first time I post something in DevDB. Hope you like this kernel and please expect many releases.
The kernel should work in stock and custom ROMs, with any variant. Tested and working in XT1601 (LATAM).
Disclamier:
Code:
[COLOR="red"]* Include <std_disclaimer.h>
* Your warranty is now void.
* I am 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 ROM
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
*[/COLOR]
Features:
From squid2's r19 build:
Moderately undervolted
Updated to Linux 3.10.104
Synced with latest CodeAurora changes
Improved memory management
Improved memory caching backported from Linux 3.15
Improved storage performance
Optimized ARM crypto routines
Updated f2fs and WiFi drivers
FIOPS and BFQ I/O schedulers
Lionfish CPU governor
IntelliPlug CPU hotplug (by faux123)
KCAL MDP5 colour control (by savoca)
Improved zRAM backported from Linux 4.9
Vibration intensity control
Compiled with Linaro GCC 6.2 and optimized for Cortex A53
Stripped down and optimized configuration
Added by me:
Governors: impulse and elementalX, yankactive, zzmoove, darkness and bioshock.
Double tap to wake (DT2W).
Permanently fixed screen flickering: SELinux works fine in permissive or enforcing mode.
Enabled advanced TCP congestion managers: veno, westwood, vegas, illinois, and more.
Drastically improved CPU thermal control: should react approximately from 40°C and end if lower than 35°C are reached. Otherwise it'll keep trying to cool the device, protecting, mainly, the battery.
Automatic thermal throttling and CPU cooling driver added and enabled.
Enabled CPU current throttling driver.
Use the hidden LED as a notification light.
Enabled forced consistency checks for F2FS (/data).
Multi-Cluster Power Management (less CPU battery drain).
KSM (Kernel Samepage Merging).
Advanced Power Management (emulated).
SMT (Simultaneous Multi-Threading).
Fixed temperature handling.
Dev info:
In order to make use of the new hidden LED's available behavior, it's needed that some Java developer (not me, I don't know a thing about Java) to develop an application. Here I'll give you a sort of "API" that you should use to wake up the required triggers for "if there's a notification or not".
To turn on the LED set trigger to default-on:
Code:
su -c "echo default-on > /sys/devices/soc.0/leds-atc-e3be1600/leds/charging/trigger"
To turn off the LED set trigger to none:
Code:
su -c "echo none > /sys/devices/soc.0/leds-atc-e3be1600/leds/charging/trigger"
I've also added the required modules for the LED to be able to process a hold on during "x" milliseconds and keep off during "x" milliseconds. To set it do it like as follows.
Switch trigger to timer:
Code:
su -c "echo timer > /sys/devices/soc.0/leds-atc-e3be1600/leds/charging/trigger"
Now, set time on during 0,5 seconds (500 milliseconds):
Code:
su -c "echo 500 > /sys/devices/soc.0/leds-atc-e3be1600/leds/charging/delay_on"
Now, set time off during 1 second (1000 milliseconds):
Code:
su -c "echo 1000 > /sys/devices/soc.0/leds-atc-e3be1600/leds/charging/delay_off"
For now, you must have a charger connected. It seems to be a hardware issue but I'll try to investigate it anyways.

---------- Post added at 06:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:52 AM ----------
@facuarmo, the kernel is working on official RR for osprey. DT2W is also working fine for now. Would you recommend any particular governer or settings for good performance?
This is SomeFeaK kernel, based on Squid2's kernel for device codename "merlin".
The kernel should work in stock and custom ROMs, with any variant.

FAQ section
FAQs
[Q] This kernel works in stock rom?
NO, this kernel is based on lineage sources and works on Lineage 14.1 and all other AOSP 7.x.x roms.
[Q] Got errors during flashing/after flashing this kernel...what to do now?
Well if you are coming from any other kernel you must dirty flash your rom once to avoid any conflicts.After dirty flashing your rom flash this kernel and you won't face any problems.Also use twrp latest version (recommended)
[Q] I am having some random reboots/bugs...what to do?
Just report it with last_kmsg which is located in /proc/last_kmsg or in case of any bugs report it with logcat and proper information about how you encountered it.I will do my best to resolve it asap.
[Q] how to tweak this kernel for advanced features (like dt2w on/off,s2w on/off or changing cpu governor or i/o sechdulors) ?
Use kernel adiutor app for playing with the kernel and change the settings according to your own taste.
[Q]How to ask for any features ?
You can ask in this thread...if I find feature useful and logical then it'll be added...I would appreciate if you link me with commit. It's really hard to dig in the sources and find the exact commit.
Double tap to wake is there ??
No i have not added it yet...but i am planning to add it soon...many more features are going to be added

Edit :- Ok guyss...i figured out the real issue...it was a tiny mistake by me and that's why when kcal colour was caliberated it automatically turned back...All is well now nd i will be updating it in an hour...this time the changelogs is gonna be huge.
S2W is working without any issues...its just disabled by default...if you want to use it then enable it first by kernel adiutor app.

Can anyone tell the battery life after installation of this kernal....?
Hello everyone! I want to present you this kernel based on Boeffla-Kernel with so many improvements, features and customizations.
For the configuration, I recommend Boeffla Config app. For beginners, just flash this kernel and forget.
If you want to even customize every part of your phone, you can modify INT, MIF and ABB voltages, install Synapse kernel manager
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device. This kernel is tested by me but it is not impossible that something bad may happen to your device due to unstable settings.
Features (See the changelog for more details):
Supports both Experimental LineageOS and Official LineageOS (and its derivatives)
Enhanced memory management
FIOPS I/O scheduler
Working magisk hide
Passes the safetynet check
arm optimized instruction set
Compiled using UBERTC GCC 7.2.1
Link time optimization
SELinux set to permissive by default
F2FS: Backported some changes from Linux 4.3
F2FS: Fully backported from Linux 4.2
F2FS Backported from Linux 4.2 (by @arter97). As you know, CM kernels use f2fs backported from Linux 3.17, but this kernel uses a higher and much updated version.
Supports undervolting CPU, GPU, MIF and INT (thx @AndreiLux). Most kernels allow undervolting CPU and GPU ONLY but this kernel allows you to undervolt almost everything.
Adaptive Body Bias Control (thx @AndreiLux)
Supports over clocking up to 1.8GHz
Multicore power saving control
Doze enabled by default
Improved caching and memory management
all Boeffla and Elite Boeffla Kernel goodies
and much more including internal improvements and backports

I use zzmoove governor - yank battery extreme. And undervolt cpu and gpu (you can use the undervolt profiles in the app. Just start with -25mV). If you want to even go further, you can undervolt MIF and INT. You can even adjust the abb voltage. But they are more advanced.
I also recmmend using the presets in the app

Did you remove touchbuttons support by kernel ? There was setting on boeffla / display tab on first build of your kernel to control touch buttons . they remain off even i touch screen. Now not supporting

You can disable it in the settings. I think lineageos has a setting for it. Just look for buttons-> hardware buttons-> then look for illuminate buttons

Yes or maybe?. Because there is also a ROM side implementation. I applied @forkbomb444's commits to this kernel so you can use his experimental lineageos which has a working hwc(only portrait mode)

Thanks i was talking about touch led settings. As this picture. I illuminated buttons from rom settings and check to control them by kernel. They remain off when i touch screen and work only if i touch them with 3 seconds illumination timeout. Works excellent on your initial build of your kernel.
On 2nd build this setting disappeared from boeffla app . Could you check it please ? Its very important for battery life , the hw buttons to work only when we touch them and no when we touch the screen every time.

Welcome to hadesKernel
Some personal thoughts:
- this kernel works only on A5 and A7 2017 versions, only for Oreo or Pie and Touchwiz/OneUI based roms (stock and stock based roms) I'm not responsable for what can happen if you flash on other devices/roms/android versions.
- if you take any of my work without my permission i'll report you, and you'll probably get banned.
- you should read at least install instructions stated in this post - i won`t offer support for any issues regarding installation;
- for more info about features included and bug reports make sure you read post #3;
- press 'Thanks' button instead of saying it - it will keep the thread clean and keep me motivated to do more;
- feel free to send me some coffee (which btw, runs out pretty quick) via paypal, if you want to support my work.

CPU governors and IO Schedulers:
Thanks to Saber you can find here more details and usage of each CPU governor and IO Scheduler. Nothing new can be said, he already covered them all. Don't forget to thank him for that.
Spectrum profiles:
As awesome developer frap129 describes here:
Spectrum is a simple, profile oriented kernel manager that allows developers to create profiles to serve to their users. This is useful for users who are inexperienced with kernel tweaking or users who want something that's a single click away.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This means kernel already has inside 4 main profiles to choose from, at a click distance, to fit with your current/further usage.
Profiles are Battery, Balanced, Performance, Gaming.
Spectrum profiles usage:
- battery - low usage like whatsapp/telegram/web pages/movies - mostly for idle usage
- balanced - medium usage/multitasking
- performance - for apps that require more power than usual - medium games or apps with lot of content rendering
- gaming - for high end games and benchmarkings
You can use the settings from spectrum profiles or any other manual settings, via hKtweaks app, thanks to morogoku for integrating spectrum inside MTweaks, based on the most used app for custom kernel settings, Kernel Adiutor provided by Grarak. Don't forget to thank them both for all the efforts they put on this.
Why a separate app? Because i added proper integration for our board and i made sure it doesn't bring incompatibilities.
Values for profiles are calculated based on soc capabilities combined with optimizations.
If you feel lags try to go one profile up, if you reach gaming profile and still lags means that your phone can't handle that content.
To make an idea i will leave below the stock vs profiles settings for comparison:

FAQ:
Q: How to report bugs?
A: If you want to report a bug make sure you include:
-device variant / modem version / bootloader version / region
-detailed info about the encountered issue
-steps to reproduce the bug
-logs
Q: How to take logs?
A: Download Logcat Extreme and take a look at this.
Q: Does it work with stock rom?
A: Only if you format data on TWRP before installing - please do note this will erase all your data and internal storage
Q: Why v1.5, where are other versions?
A: v1.0-v1.4 were stock like kernels included in hadesRom Stock. For v1.5 i added too many features so i decided to release as separate. To avoid confusion with older releases i named them v1.5.
Q: Why v1.5 and v1.5s?
A: "s" stands for stock, if you want to have a kernel more like stock you can choose v1.5s version, if you like more features go for normal v1.5.
Another amazing job, keep it up. Going to flash it right now and start saving for sending some coffee soon!
Verification fails at reboot. Do i have to flash the no integrity check,too?
And RMM state bybass ? soft-brick here.
cant root it
Good job @corsicanu :good:
hadesKernel never disappointed me in the past when I used it on my old A3 2015 and now A5 and A7 2017 will profit from it too. Keep it up! :highfive:
good work..thx bro
doas work in stock rom?
thx
Hey @corsicanu, I noticed a bug in v1.5. Indeed when we are in SELinux Enforcing, the wifi can't be turn on while it's work fine when we are in SELinux Permissive.
I'm on hadesrom v4.5 in A520F
PS : I'm french so excuse my bad english ^^

Uninstall magisk, flash v16.0 and then update through the app with direct install. Worked for me.
As Always nothing but Quality, Great work my friend
Hmm, still no SIM card, no service.
I flashed the OREO modem from your other thread, rebooted several times, tried to install OREO bootloader but that fails (because my phone already has oreo bootloader but a later revision).
In system settings it shows baseband version unknown.
What's going wrong here?
Thanks very nice but sad at the same time cause I'm still on android 7
I'm on HadesRom stock v5.0
Should I need to do any wipes before flashing?
can i flash this with hadesRom S9+ Port v1.0?

No need to wipes anything. Just flash the kernel and magisk for root. Reboot and enjoy.
in a720f cant turn on wifi
sorry
This kernel is great. Originally had some battery issues but after adding some xposed modules it back to stock levels or so. By far the best bit is the speed of the fingerprint sensor.
Thanks.
