Looking good! By the looks of your github, you've been playing with kernel for awhile. Correct?

Re: [KERNEL][N7][4.2.x][05 MAR] DMORE.Kernel #01
Does this have MultiROM boot support? If you added the kexec patch than it does.

He was probably mistaken, because the kernel you linked here in xda from rootzwiki

The download has one problem. Its dmore.kernel (.kernel is the file ext) when it should be dmore_kernel.zip .a simple rename did the trick.

Ops sorry: I normally work with linux Ok for all people: rename the download zip file (dmore.kernel) in a zip file (dmore_kernel01.zip) and flash with Cwm

don't worry be happy I looked in any case from your xda thread and your posts. Thanks for all.

This kernel would be awesome, if it's based on the M-kernel! I use the M-kernel already 2 months, and it's awesome! But guy, you're doing a great job here! Of course is the #1 build, experimental. But keep developing, you will become a great dev! :good:

Re: [KERNEL][N7][4.2.x][03 MAR] DMORE.Kernel #01
Any progress? If not I'll start testing and send you feed back.

Thanks for your help : i'm a little new kernel developer :angel::angel:
I added support for multirom; here a prebuild link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38675813&postcount=2
I looking forward to hearing the first impressions.... i cross my finger :good:

Re: [KERNEL][N7][4.2.x][03 MAR] DMORE.Kernel #01
So it was a little laggy at first, but that pretty much happens with any kernel when you just rebooted, so far it has been able to handle very graphics intense games, such as dead trigger, with ease. I'm charging to 100% so I can test battery life. If battery life does well, I think that you just need to add some More features (over clocking to 1600 would be nice) and you've got a kernel that may be able to compete with some more established kernels, such as lean kernel, motley, M-kernel ect. As far as features to add go, i think just an over clock, the ability to change the amount of active cores(m-kernel has this), and the touchdemand governor. Ill continue testing and give you more feedback later!

Re: [KERNEL][N7][4.2.x][03 MAR] DMORE.Kernel #01
I've been running it for a day now. No issues at all. Very smooth, so far great battery life and the extra bonus of working flash. Thank you for the kernel!

Thanks for you useful feedback. This is only the start developer... I hope to do a fully complete stable kernel.. with a good battery life.. :good:

Re: [KERNEL][N7][4.2.x][03 MAR] DMORE.Kernel #01
Battery life is great! over 3 and a half hours on battery with heavy use (gaming, YouTube, being here on xda, internet browsing, ect.) No time n airplane mode and im down to 75%. smartassv2 is working flawlessly so far. Oh, and i just built a new computer and I'm working on getting Linux running correctly on it (having some LAN chip compatibility issues) so i may be able to help out with future builds.

Re: [KERNEL][N7][4.2.x][03 MAR] DMORE.Kernel #01
My apologies...I downloaded your kernel the other day and it slipped my mind so today I have finally flashed it. Going to let it settle in and I will get back to you. Always glad to see new developers and I'll help as much as I can.

Impressed already...streaming video and MX player are working great. Gonna run Shadow Gun in a little bit but so far its looking pretty good.
On dirty root box v2.0 by the way

Re: [KERNEL][N7][4.2.x][03 MAR] DMORE.Kernel #01
The lagfree governor is working great so far, other than the fact that you cant edit it in trickster. Oh, and a another thing to add to a future update, more tcp congestion control, like Westwood, because reno and cubic arent to great.

Re: [KERNEL][N7][4.2.x][03 MAR] DMORE.Kernel #01
Also, you may want to remove the powersave and user space governor's as they are the least used and powersave is highly unstable, apps FC like crazy. Took me 10 mins to change govs in trickster mod.
EDIT: something is causing WiFi to disconnect like crazy, you might want to talk to metalice about it, a35 had this issue i believe.

Does your kernel work with N7 3G -Tilapia ?
I have not seen that it's build for this version also.
