Hey guys, we have here a kernel built from the kernel source HTC released on 8/29/12 for Vigor. This kernel is a modified version of what came in the Official 3.14.605.12 ICS OTA except it is built from HTC's kernel source release. What else can I say?
Bugs:
-?
Current features:
Perflock Disabled
Fast charge enabled using any power source - Thanks to Chad, I used his commits as a reference
Download:
Link Removed
Download Global OTA Compatible Version (Thanks to MicroMod for making it happen
Link Removed
Install:
Place zip on sd
Reboot to recovery (I use amon)
Install from zip
Select the zip file
The file will flash and then the phone will reboot to hboot
Once there, simple press power to select bootloader
Accept the update
It will install
Reboot your phone
????
Enjoy
Don't forget to go delete the PH98IMG.zip from your SD Card after boot.
Disclaimers:
I won't be responsible for what you flash on your phone or any damge that could be caused. Always use caution when modifying any part of your device.

How to disable perflock in an HTC kernel through source
Simple, open you source. Open the arch/arm/configs. Find the file vigor_defcofig. Find the following lines:
Code:
CONFIG_PERFLOCK=y
CONFIG_PERFLOCK_BOOT_LOCK=y
Change them to:
Code:
# CONFIG_PERFLOCK is not set
# CONFIG_PERFLOCK_BOOT_LOCK is not set
Perflock is now disabled. Build your source
Changing the kernel name
Open the scripts folder in the root of your source. Find and open the file makecompile_h. Find the lines:
Code:
echo \#define LINUX_COMPILE_BY \"`echo $LINUX_COMPILE_BY | $UTS_TRUNCATE`\"
echo \#define LINUX_COMPILE_HOST \"`echo $LINUX_COMPILE_HOST | $UTS_TRUNCATE`\"
Edit how you want:
Code:
echo \#define LINUX_COMPILE_BY \"`echo wildstang83`\"
echo \#define LINUX_COMPILE_HOST \"`echo vigor-ics`\"
Enjoy
Is this a sense kernel? I know...but noobs should have heads up.

As far as I know, absolutely nothing. I could be wrong though. Some of you that remember the Incredible or Thunderbolt will remember how the kernel that was in the ota for those devices and the kernel source released after the ota were different. HTC had added in minor fixes to the kernel source release that was not in the ota. I don't know if that is the case here, just a thought though.
It's not different. Lmao read the title. Looking forward to see what come from this, stang

Exactly, we can assume this kernel is no different from the one in the OTA. Unless of course someone else can prove otherwise.

Is that Kernel still perflocked?
Not totally familiar with what could be different between stock and custom built stock from source.

If built as is from source, I'd say yes. Give the devs some times, you'll see them come out with perflock removed.

Right, this kernel was not intended to be custom in anyway whatsoever. It is simply a kernel built from source. I know I like stock things, I'm sure others do as well.
i honestly love you wild stang. and neo and mbobino.

Will this work with sense 4 roms?
i guess with perflock disabled, we could underclock? or at least change the governors and stuff using cpu controller apps?

Should be fairly simple to insure a Sense 4 version. Just grab a sense 4 boot.img like newtoroots or whatever, open it up in android kitchen and drop in the zimage from my kernel's zip. Repackage the boot.img and fastboot flash it. ant, you should try it

NEW:
Working .34-rc3 kernel available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6290443&postcount=45
OLD:
Code:
This is an experimental .34-rc2 kernel for the Nexus One.
Provided in the zip file is a folder (2.6.34-rc2-termana-nexusone) and the kernel (zImage).
It is extremely experimental, so only follow this if you [B][I][U]really[/U][/I][/B] know what your doing and know how to reflash another kernel back to make it boot again if it doesn't boot. I'm not responsible if your device curls over and dies.
Use adb to push the folder into /system/lib/modules/ and then use fastboot to flash the kernel.
The kernel is a rebase of cyanogen's .33.1 kernel to the latest .34-rc2 kernel. So nothing particularly new about it, besides the satisfaction that not many people would be running this kernel version on devices.
Zip file: bit.ly/94Oo6m (To download it click the link next to the text "Save file to your PC:")
Edit: Being a new member of xda-developers forum, it wouldn't let me post the link properly, but just copy and paste it and you'll be fine.
what folder are you talking about that needs to be pushed into /system/lib/modules/
there's only one folder in 2.6.34-rc2-termana-nexusone folder and that's kernel
also, is this kernel undervolted/overclocked/audio boost? can you give more info on the kernel itself?
thanks

You have to push the 2.6.34-rc2-termana-nexusone folder, the whole thing, THAT folder, so that you end up with the a folder in /system/lib/modules called 2.6.34-rc2-termana-nexusone. There are no changes regarding undervolting, overclocking or audio boosting (unless cyanogen's kernel has included one of these) - but for general kernel changes jlevy73 provided a link to the mainline changelog.
Will give it a go nad logcat it

You sure that wouldn't create a folder within a folder?
Not really sure just saying...
So is this working for you Termana?
I tried both have the subfolder and just pushing all the files to /modules and both produced a bootloop
i pushed the folder to /system/lib/modules/ and flashed zimage, but just get bootloop
I should of been more clear. I released the kernel as extremely experimental as I don't have a Nexus One yet to test it on. I will be obtaining one in April/May some time. However, if people are willing to help me test these kernels, I will keep building and changing things until we get something that works. If no wants to help at all, then I will just wait until I obtain one to do any of this kind of work.
So if anyone does want to test, I will be doing another compile in the next day or two to be tested.
I seriously thought, you tested it on your Nex before posting it....was a missunderstanding.

You might need to rephrase your question as the way you've said it doesn't let me know exactly what you mean by "ARM source". Do you mean using the Android ARM toolchain or what?
To anyone that is willing to help me test:
New build available at - bit.ly/c1tFqg (just the zImage, don't worry about pushing the modules for now)
Info:
This is a .33.1 kernel not a .34-rc2 kernel HOWEVER, I wanted to get the source that I'm rebasing off tested to make sure it boots, because if the source I'm pulling from doesn't boot, then obviously my rebases aren't going to either. So, please test it and tell me if it boots, if it does, I'll have another .34-rc2 kernel build up shortly after. If it doesn't, I may have to try rebasing from the official .32 kernel rather than the current source I'm rebasing from at the moment (which is .33.1).
Booted for me.
Code:
2.6.33.1-cyanogenmod

I wouldn't post it yet. The first one he posted doesn't boot and the second one he posted I don't believe has any optimizations.
So after a couple of days of reading guides on the internets, I've been able to compile a mostly stock kernel that incorporates some of the changes made by joe85 in his NOLIGHTS Kernel. This kernel is stock other than the changes outlined below. The anykernel scripts keep your existing RAMDISK intact. If you had init.d support/other RAMDISK mod(s), it will still be present after flashing this kernel.
mKernel_v1.3
-Added TUN module for VPNC support
-Changed Display Maximum PWM from 232 -> 255
-Changed Display Minimum PWM from 8 -> 6
-Dimmed LEDs (from 20 mA -> 2 mA) or turned off completely
-Remove LED notification timer (does not shut off until dismissed)
------NotifyTimerOn versions use default timer to shut off notification LED

Adding overclocking has proven to be too much for me to do (more info on challenges of asynchronous dual core OC here. There isn't really much of an update going from 1.2 -> 1.3. I just re-did the changes from stock and tracked them using github. I did leave out the setting that joe85 made that allowed users to set a LED brightness via cmd line. There are 2 versions - mKernel_dim_1.3 for dim capacitive LEDs and mKernel_LEDoff_1.3 for capacitive LEDs which are always off.
You need a 2.3.4 based ROM for it to work and it can be flashed from recovery.
You can also flash it via joeykrim's Flash Image GUI with runs on your phone and is compatible with HBOOT 1.50. LINK!
Thanks to koush for the anykernel scripts and joe85 for all of his work (I just copied it into the new 2.3.4 kernel).
Everything works fine on my phone, but please post if you have any problems (not responsible, blah, blah, blah ).
github source with commits showing changes from stock kernel. There's not many and none should affect battery, performance, etc. compared to stock.

From my limited understanding android kernels and upgrading them, if the ROM you're using has it already removed, it will still be removed after flashing this kernel. CIQ removal is just done in the ramdisk. The compiled kernel makes a zImage and that, along with the modules for wimax & wifi, is all that is in the zip. The scripts in the zip extract your current boot.img, replaces the old zImage with the one in the zip, and re-makes boot.img (at least that's how I envision it working...could be wrong).

removing carrier IQ is big task and goes beyond the kernel, as you stated.
there was a guy over on SDX dev's that did it by removing the scripts from the framework.res apk. so basically the programs were still on the phone, but when you fired the phone up they didn't start.
that is the only way that i am aware of that it can be done. it's a lot deeper than the kernel and deleting apk files from the system.
EDIT** and when i say that is the only way i know of, that doesn't mean it is the only way.
Will this kernel work on Synergy 475 with EXT4 Opt.?

This is NOT a valid CWM flashable zip, do not try to flash it from CWM because it will not work! If you want to flash this kernel to return your device's kernel to stock, the following method has been tested:
Unzip the file, run the following command - this assumes that you have the commandline version of Heimdall installed.

If the GPS isn't a major improvement and GW doesn't work with the NFC chip in this device, I can't justify the cost of upgrading. I've got 30 days.

As far as I can tell it's enabled in the stock kernel. So what's missing is in userland. It may be as simple as a market filtering issue.

Here is a custom kernel based on the latest GT-N7100 sources for the Note 2. I've taken a lot of stuff out, so if you like playing around with changing 500 things on the kernel before you start using your phone, look somewhere else. It pulls in Beoffla Sound and Simple IO Scheduler and removes as much debugging stuff as possible, non-default CPU and IO schedulers, and Ext2 Support (Ext4 handles Ext2/3). I've also gotten rid of recovery over-write on boot and enabled adb root by default.
There is no overclocking support, overclocking is useless unless you're pumping up your e-peen. There is no undervolting support as it hasn't been shown to do anything useful on multi-core systems from everything I've seen. There is no init.d support as 90% of the init.d scripts are useless. It will continue using stock boot animations as well, though I'm sure it wouldn't be to difficult to make stock android boot animations work. That may even be possible without any kernel changes anyway.
The only issue I've run into is that exFAT SDcards may not work with it. I've been trying to figure out why, but it is slow going when I don't have an exFAT card to test with. If anyone would like to help fix it, flash and get me full dmesg and logcats. If you don't know how to get those, but still want to help, see my SDK Guide for a general overview of what to do.
This kernel is built for TouchWiz ROMs, and should work on any available VZW ROM currently available. It works for VRALJB, VRALL4, and VRAMC3 from my own testing, let me know if you have issues on a TW ROM and I may be able to fix it. For a download, see below.

I get a "Status 7" error when trying to install, WTF?
Update your recovery. TWRP that is flashed via the unlock method does not process asserts properly (it was compiled for a different Note 2 model). This is meant to keep people from flashing this to the wrong device.
My exFAT SDcard isn't working
See the OP, I need info to get exFAT to work properly. Until then, format your SDCard to FAT32
Where are all the options?
You can't read, I already said there are none. This is flash and forget it.
This is the best thing since sliced bread, can I make it rain?
Click the DONATE TO ME button to the left, or click here, it's appreciated, but not expected. Clicking thanks on the posts also works.
This thing is worse than Tub Girl, how do I go back to what I had before?
Just reflash your old kernel. If you were on stock before, I've posted the stock kernels at the end of this post.
I'm having a problem, FIX IT NAO!!!1!
Send me both the output from dmesg and logcat as well as details of what you do when you see the problem. Otherwise, the source is linked to below, fix it yourself.
Can we get XYZ feature added?
Link to it, and I'll think about it.

Re: [KERNEL][TW][2-18-13]PeanutButta Jelly
Dude no lie...I was thinking to myself last night that I wish this kernel was available for our phone. Your kernel for the GNex was the best thing to have been on my GNEX. Downloading then flashing immediately. Thanks imnuts

I'm on stock deodex vrll4 and flashing this right now. I trust your work. Finally someone who agrees that overclocking is useless.

Downloading now
Re: [KERNEL][TW][2-18-13]PeanutButta Jelly
Flashed fine. Charging to 100% then ill report back once I drain it. Feels nice and smooth though. Better then straight stock from what I see thus far

Here is a custom kernel based on the latest GT-N7100 sources for the Note 2. I've taken a lot of stuff out, so if you like playing around with changing 500 things on the kernel before you start using your phone, look somewhere else. It pulls in Voodoo Sound, Simple IO Scheduler, and Joe's Tiny RCU. I've also gotten rid of recovery over-write on boot and enabled adb root by default. It removes as much debugging stuff as possible, non-default CPU and IO schedulers, and Ext2 Support (Ext4 handles Ext2/3).
There is no overclocking support, overclocking is useless unless you're pumping up your e-peen. There is no undervolting support as it hasn't been shown to do anything useful on multi-core systems from everything I've seen. There is no init.d support as 90% of the init.d scripts are useless. It will continue using stock boot animations as well, though I'm sure it wouldn't be to difficult to make stock android boot animations work. That may even be possible without any kernel changes anyway.
The only issue I've run into is that exFAT SDcards may not work with it. I've been trying to figure out why, but it is slow going when I don't have an exFAT card to test with. If anyone would like to help fix it, flash and get me full dmesg and logcats. If you don't know how to get those, but still want to help, see my SDK Guide for a general overview of what to do.
This kernel is built for TouchWiz ROMs, and should work on any available VZW ROM currently available. It works for both VRALJB and VRALL4 from my own testing, let me know if you have issues on a TW ROM and I may be able to fix it. For a download, see below. I also am not posting in original development because IMO, that entire forum is useless and confusing.

looks pretty good would u mind if i modify the ramdisk and add init.d/bootanim support and have it as an option in my rom?

After flashing I no longer have haptic feedback? I checked my settings and it's enabled yet nothing happens.

Hopefully this isn't a sore subject, but will this work fine on the Jedi ROM which is built on an international base?

I would think that it should work on any 4.1.x TW ROM, but I haven't tested it out. Do you know what kernel is used on that ROM?

Well, this is built off of the N7100 sources, so I would think it would work.

I bet it says status 7. If You read the OP it says you need to update your recovery.

Any devs working on a stock Read and Write kernel? so we can finally get rid of all the ATT bloat without it coming back? Or are we just waiting for kernel source?

It's available, somebody just needs to use a hex editor to make the module load with whatever kernel version AT&T uses.

Was there only the one string for the kernel version towards the top? If so - here it is for kernel 3.4.10-g3de55a2
Note: not a flashable zip... the module is inside, just couldn't attach it as a .ko
