INSTALLATION
1. Install zip from recovery
2. Follow the instructions, if you don't know what to do, use the preselected options
3. Reboot
For installation, it seems a lot of people have finicky phones when it comes to flashing stuff with aroma.
If the installer gets stuck at 0% then you need to reboot to bootloader and do fastboot erase cache
If the installer reboots at 10%, you need to do a nandroid backup of /system partition and restore it. I think a dirty flash would also work.
After you install it, if you get a black screen or stuck at the HTC logo, no need to worry. Just hold down the power button untill the capacitive buttons start flashing and the phone restarts. The kernel installed correctly.
As always, with overclocking, not all phones can handle all frequencies. If it doesn't boot, or randomly reboots, or freezes, your first course of action should be to reinstall with a lower frequency.

NOTES:
ElementalX Configuration File
Your choices in the Aroma installer are used to build a configuration file. The config file is located at /etc/elementalx.conf. You can edit this file to change kernel settings. Whatever is set in this file will take effect when the device is booted (unless other scripts or apps interfere!)
The settings can be changed by editing /etc/elementalx.conf and rebooting. Advanced users can apply settings on the fly by running /etc/init.d/99elementalx as root.
There is no need to edit /etc/init.d/99elementalx. All settings are configured in /etc/elementalx.conf.
If settings are not sticking, make sure the file permissions for /etc/init.d/99elementalx are set to execute. Every time the settings are applied, a log file is created at /data/local/tmp/elementalx-kernel.log. Problems can be diagnosed by looking at the log file.
Please check to see if any /etc/init.d scripts or apps (such as Kernel Tuner or Trickstermod) are interfering with your settings.
ElementalX Log File
Every boot, a log file is created at /data/local/tmp/elementalx.log. This file shows the date and time and all settings that have been applied. Use this to verify and troubleshoot configuration options. Also shows your PVS bin.
Kernel Tuner/TricksterMod/Venom Tweaks, etc
You don't need these apps because the ElementalX installer sets everything up automatically, but if you want to check or change settings, you can use these apps. Just be aware that some of them (e.g. Kernel Tuner) are set by default to apply settings on boot, which can interfere with the settings you chose in the ElementalX installer.
Note: on the most recent versions, the fauxclock app interferes with GPU overclocking unless you disable pnpmgr (not recommended)
Overclocking
Overclocking (or underclocking) is optional. The installer lets you choose a maximum between 1134MHz (underclocked) and 2160MHz (overclocked). You can set the maximum frequency individually for each CPU core in the installer. Whatever frequencies you chose in the installer will be set at boot for each CPU. Not all devices can handle overclocking. The stock maximum CPU frequency is 1.7GHz. I recommend a mild overclock, like 1836MHz. Clocking higher creates heat and wastes battery for very little performance gain.
CPU voltages
The installer allows you to choose from several undervolting options. These automatically undervolt the lowest frequency (384MHz) where the CPU spends most of its time. The voltages for other frequencies are assigned based on the PVS bin of your phone. CPU voltages are fully customisable with apps such Kernel Tuner or Trickster Mod, but I recommend leaving these other voltages as-is unless you are prepared to do a lot of testing. Be careful, lowering voltages can cause instability. Generally, having reboots while the phone is asleep is a sign that your minimum voltage is too low. The minimum voltage allowed is 700mV.
Be careful with undervolting. If you have bluetooth or sound issues, try increasing the minimum voltage.
Minimum CPU frequency
The minimum CPU frequency in this kernel is 384MHz. This chip was not designed to operate below 384MHz and I am respecting Qualcomm's design decision to have the CPU idle on pll8 at 384MHz. There is a way to achieve lower frequencies using the high frequency pll, however, this is likely to cause instability and inefficient operation (battery drain, ui stuttering)
GPU frequencies
You can choose stock GPU frequency of 400MHz or overclock. If overclocked, you can choose from a range of frequencies up to 585MHz. Overclock frequencies can be changed on the fly, but you can't use the stock frequency. Conversely, if you choose stock GPU, the overclocking frequencies will not be available. To change between stock and overclocking mode, you need to reinstall. The same voltages are used no matter if the GPU is overclocked or not.
GPU Governor
The default GPU govenror is ondemand. It works well and is recommended for best balance between performance and batter life. The simple governor is also available, but ramps up the GPU frequency much quicker than ondemand, so may impact battery life. The governor can be set in /etc/elementalx.conf
Thermal Control
I've added kernel based thermal control and throttling. HTC's thermald is very aggressive and throttles the CPU frequency pretty much anytime you use all four processors. This kernel based implementation allow better performance while still protecting your phone from overheating. There are three levels of thermal control, which can be chosen in the installer or changed in /etc/elementalx.conf. The default option is recommended. With the run cool option, your CPU will run about 5C cooler than default while under heavy load. With the run hot option, the CPU will run about 5C warmer than default under heavy load.
MPDecision settings
There are three mpdecision settings available: battery saving, stock and performance. I think they are self explanatory. These can be changed in /etc/elementalx.conf
Max screen off frequency
This is optional and must be selected in the installer. I recommend enabling it. This limits the max cpu frequency while the screen is off. The default max screen off frequency is 702MHz, which is a good balance between limiting the voltage/frequency and the time required to complete tasks while the screen is off. You can adjust this with applications such as Venom Tweaks.
I/O Schedulers
The default i/o scheduler is ROW. Other available schedulers are ROW, CFQ, FIOPS, SIO, NOOP and deadline.
Installing a new ROM
If you install a new ROM, it will probably replace this with the stock kernel and will definitely overwrite /etc/init.d/99elementalx and /etc/elementalx.conf so you will lose your settings and certain features. So always reinstall the kernel after installing a ROM.
Wake Gestures
This is a new feature similar to the Motion Launch Gestures on the HTC One m8. Requires one of the following Xposed modules:
Sense 6 Toolbox: http://sensetoolbox.com/6/download (most options for HTC)
Wake Gestures: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-wake-gestures-v1-0-t2768266
Set /sys/android_touch/wake_gestures to 1 to enable input events for wake gesture actions. Set to 0 to use traditional sweep2wake or doubletap2wake (wakes up the phone and turns on the screen only).
Note that if you enable wake_gestures, nothing will happen if you don't install one of the Xposed modules.
Sweep2wake
Sweep2wake allows you to turn on your phone by swiping your finger across the screen. There are four sweep actions that will work
Gesture........Value
Sweep right......1
Sweep left........2
Sweep up.........4
Sweep down....8
Add up the values for each gesture you want to enable and put the total in /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake. For example, to enable all gestures, the value is 15 (1+2+4+8). To enable sweep right, sweep left and sweep up, the value is 7 (1+2+4)
/sys/android_touch/sweep2wake
DoubleTap2Wake
DoubleTap2Wake (DT2W) allows you to wake the device by double tapping in the bottom inch or so of the screen, above the capacitive buttons. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake
0=disabled
1=enable doubletap2wake (bottom of screen only)
2=enable doubletap2wake (full screen)
Logo2Wake
Logo2Wake (L2W) allows you to sleep or wake the device by long pressing the HTC logo. You have to press just slightly above the HTC logo. The screen will automatically turn on or off with a long press. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/logo2wake
0=disabled
1=enable logo2wake
Pocket Detection
Pocket detection protects against accidental wakes while S2W, DT2W or L2W are enabled and the phone is in your pocket. Pocket detection uses the proximity sensor. A few people have a problem with their proximity sensor that makes DT2W not work, so I've made an option to disable pocket detection. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/pocket_detect
0=disabled
1=enable pocket detection
Logo2Menu
Enabling Logot2Menu (L2M) allows you to use the HTC logo as a menu button. You must press just slightly above the HTC logo. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/logo2menu
0=disabled
1=enable logo2menu
Button Light Notification
With Button Light Notification (BLN), the capacitive buttons will blink on and off when you have a new notification. As soon as the screen comes on, BLN is canceled and the lights will no longer blink until you have another notification. Please note that if you have your screen set to turn on when a message arrives, you will not see the buttons blinking because once the screen comes on, the button light notification is canceled. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/class/leds/button-backlight/blink_buttons
0 = disabled
1 = BLN enabled
NTFS and exFAT support
This is for anyone who wants to use OTG to connect a USB stick or portable harddrive formatted with Microsoft's NTFS and exFAT filesystems. You will need Stickmount or a similar app, HTC Sense does not automatically detect these filesystems.
Other stuff
This kernel supports many game pads and controllers, including PS3 controllers and some X-Box controllers. It has full OTG support. A refresh rate of 60Hz for HDMI output allows you to play games on the big screen without choppiness. CIFS support is built into the kernel. Color control is also supported.

You have one of these too? Do you like it better than the DNA?
The oc freq is set by the command line, I have a feeling that the install will fail on att phones and maybe others. It works on mine (Bell Mobility). I have it set to choose stock frequencies if the command line doesn't get set.
I've also only tested the installation on TWRP, don't know if it works on CWM.

Just flashed nice options in aroma had a hour so far very stable overclocked 2050 will report back on battery life but sure it's going to be great thanks for the kernel

Same here. Have an att variant and I've tried all the frequencies from stock to the maximum one. And the frequency maximum still is stock in setcpu and no-frills.

Damn AT&T. I have an idea for an alternate installer. I'll put it together in the next few days.

OC fails on my international version. I love the S2W.
Many thanks for your work.

First Reboot After One hour.
No oc No uv.
Just felt the Vibration in my pocket.

Yeah another kernrl dev in here nice one and welcome. i still have no phone and deving in dark. my s2w wasnt that good so i havent included it yet. also had the prob that u needed go be very precise... how did u fix it?

ill look at it if i can figure it out ill make a pull request for the ATT branded phones
the screen is a tad smaller wich sucks but the speed is obviously faster on my One over my DNA

I dont think it works with CWM, what will the Kernel be called in the setting menu if it works?

No overclock on tmobile as well defaults to 1728.....but other then that amazing kernel....
Camera works great as well.....
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium

Trying with trickdroid 5.1.
I confirm that camera is working.
It's possible to set UV with kernel control; all the cpu frequencies of the kernel are shown in voltage but...no OC. CpuSpy and Kernel Control show always 1728 even choosing 2052 or 1890 max freq (I tried both).
Thanks a lot for your job.

Installed fine but the overclocking not working. SIO is there so I know the kernel installed. So no issue.....

Great stuff!
So its the camera firmware that needs replacement to match the kernel, and make it work on 1.29.xxx.12 and 13?
I'll throw up an additional flashable to my kernel thread, if you don't mind me using that.

[Kernel][JB][aosp] [USBHOST] [sweep2wake] Komodo (5/15 /13)

This is a AOSP kernel for the lte.
since 4.2 is pretty stable I am going to start updating the changelog for it.
What is a kernel?
In computing, the kernel is the main component of most computer operating systems; it is a bridge between applications and the actual data processing done at the hardware level. The kernel's responsibilities include managing the system's resources (the communication between hardware and software components).

[IMG]http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1479575&stc=1&d=1352840345[/IMG]
here is a little explanation of kernel based thermal and mpdecision control
What is msm_thermal?
Kernel based 3-phase thermal control!
This replaces your /system/bin/thermald binary which is renamed by the installer to thermald_backup.
Check /sys/kernel/msm_thermal/conf/ for the thermal configuration
allowed_max_high = highest threshold (phase 3)
allowed_max_low = remove the throttling if we cooled down to this (clr_thrshold)
allowed_max_freq = max frequency if throttled (limit)
[...]mid[...] = same as above, just for phase 2
[...]low[...] = Lowest threshold (phase 1)
check_interval_ms = how often shall we check? (sampling rate)
Default: 1000ms (=1sec)
If you want to see msm_thermal doing it's job:
Code:
adb shell cat /proc/kmsg | grep 'msm_thermal'
What is msm_mpdecision?
100% kernel based multi core decision! (should cpu1 be online or not?)
This replaces your /system/bin/mpdecision binary which is renamed by the installer to mpdecision_backup.
Check /sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf/ for the configuration.
startdelay = time until mpdecision starts doing it's magic (70000)
delay = time between checks (500)
pause = if something else plugs in the cpu, fall asleep for 10000
scroff_single_core = if the screen is off, don't plug in cpu1 (1)
nwns_threshold_up = runqueue threshold, if this is reached cpu1 will be hotplugged (35)
nwns_threshold_down = runqueue threshold, if this is reached cpu1 will be unplugged (5)
twts_threshold_up = time threshold, this amount of time must have passed (250)
twts_threshold_down = same as above (250)
enabled = enable(1) or disable(0) mpdecision. This does not affect scroff_single_core!
idle_freq = a value against that will be checked if a core +/- is requested. (486000)
If cpu0 is below that value and a core up of cpu1 is requested, nothing will happen.
If cpu1 is above that value and a core down of cpu1 is requested, nothing will happen. (otherwise it would now put down cpu1 even though it is still working)
(all times are in ms)
NOT RESPONSIBE IF YOU BRICK,DROP,LOSE YOUR DEVICE. FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK[/B
What is FSO?
Fso has greater speed, but there is a chance of corrupting if the phone has a random reboot.
Non-fso is what a stock kernel is and does not have the corruption issue.
It's a trade off, performance for stability or visa versa
If you have issues with reboots viperboy has created a script to increase voltages which may help with stability for the rebellious phones thanks viperboy

Can someone repackage it?

If I'm not mistaken, the image you need is in the flashable zip. Just download the zip, extract it somewhere, and grab the IMG.
May be wrong though. Been a while since I actually looked inside of a kernel zip haha

NOTES:
ElementalX Configuration File
Your choices in the Aroma installer are used to build a configuration file. The config file is located at /etc/elementalx.conf. You can edit this file to change kernel settings. Whatever is set in this file will take effect when the device is booted (unless other scripts or apps interfere!)
If settings are not sticking:
[*]Make sure the file permissions for /etc/init.d/99elementalx are set to execute.
[*]Check to see if any /etc/init.d scripts or apps (such as Kernel Tuner or TricksterMod) are interfering with your settings.
ElementalX Log File
Every boot, a log file is created at /data/local/tmp/elementalx-kernel.log. This file shows the date and time and all settings that have been applied. Use this to verify and troubleshoot configuration options.
ElementalX Governor
The ElementalX CPU governor has been specifically designed and tuned to get the best balance between battery life and performance. By default, it is more conservative than Ondemand. During routine usage, the CPU frequency does not ramp up very often. If gboost is enabled, during gaming or any other graphics intensive situation, the CPU frequencies boost much easier in order to maintain maximum performance. Disabling gboost can increase battery life, but there may be a loss of performance, especially during gaming.
Faux Clock/TricksterMod/Kernel Tuner/etc
You don't need these apps because the ElementalX installer sets everything up automatically, but if you want to check or change settings, you can use these apps. Just be aware that some of them (e.g. Kernel Tuner) are set by default to apply settings on boot, which can interfere with the settings you chose in the ElementalX installer.
Overclocking
Overclocking (or underclocking) is optional. The installer lets you choose the maximum frequency. You can set the maximum frequency individually for each CPU core in the installer. Whatever frequencies you chose in the installer will be set at boot for each CPU. Not all devices can handle overclocking. The stock maximum CPU frequency is 1512MHz. I recommend a mild overclock, like 1728MHz for daily use. Clocking higher creates heat and wastes battery for very little performance gain.
CPU voltages
The installer allows you to choose from several undervolting options. These automatically undervolt the lowest frequency (384MHz) where the CPU spends most of its time. The voltages for other frequencies are assigned based on the PVS bin of your phone. CPU voltages are fully customisable with apps such Kernel Tuner or Trickster Mod, but I recommend leaving these other voltages as-is unless you are prepared to do a lot of testing. Be careful, lowering voltages can cause instability. Generally, having reboots while the phone is asleep or other weird problems is a sign that your minimum voltage is too low. The minimum voltage allowed is 700mV.
GPU Governor
The default GPU govenror is ondemand. It works well and is recommended for best balance between performance and batter life. The simple governor is also available, but ramps up the GPU frequency much quicker than ondemand, so may impact battery life. The governor can be set in /etc/elementalx.conf
fsync
fsync can be disabled if you're looking for the last ounce of performance. I recommend leaving it enabled as there is a slight risk of data loss if your phone shuts off unexpectedly before filesystems are synced.
Max screen off frequency
The default max screen off frequency is 1026MHz, which is a good balance between limiting the voltage/frequency and the time required to complete tasks while the screen is off. This can be changed manually at /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/screen_off_max_freq
Installing a new ROM
If you install a new ROM, it will probably replace this with the stock kernel and will definitely overwrite /etc/init.d/99elementalx and /etc/elementalx.conf so you will lose your settings and certain features. So always reinstall the kernel after installing a ROM.
NTFS and exFAT support
This is for anyone who wants to use OTG to connect a USB stick or portable harddrive formatted with Microsoft's NTFS or exFAT filesystems. You will need Stickmount or a similar app.
GPU overclocking
There are two modes: stock and overclocking. If you pick stock GPU freq (400MHz) you won't be able to overclock. Conversely, if you pick one of the overclocking frequencies, you won't be able to use the stock 400MHz frequency. You have to reflash if you want to change this.
These are the frequencies I've added: 450, 477, 490.5, 504, 531, 558, and 585
If you're in overclock mode, you change these on the fly with TricksterMod. I don't recommend 558+ for daily use. Too hot and probably unstable for most.
USB host mode charging
I've added a hack to allow usb host mode charging. Since not that many people are going to be using this, it needs to be enabled manually. This will allow you to charge the tablet while a USB peripheral is hooked up to the OTG cable.
To use it, change /sys/module/msm_otg/parameters/usbhost_charge_mode to 1.
You need a Y-cable and OTG adapter. This will be handy for people who use their tablet in the car and need to keep it charged.
First connect the Y-cable to your OTG adapter and a power source, then attach a USB peripheral. Finally, plug the OTG adapter into the tablet. Both the tablet and the peripheral will be powered by the Y-cable, allowing the tablet to charge
Wake Gestures
This is a new feature similar to the Motion Launch Gestures on the HTC One m8. Requires the following Xposed module:
Wake Gestures: elementalx.org/wake-gestures
Set /sys/android_touch/wake_gestures to 1 to enable input events for wake gesture actions. Set to 0 to use traditional sweep2wake or doubletap2wake (wakes up the phone and turns on the screen only).
Note that if you enable wake_gestures, nothing will happen if you don't install the Wake Gestures Xposed module.
Sweep2wake
Sweep2wake allows you to turn on your phone by swiping your finger across the screen. There are four sweep actions that will work
Gesture........Value
Sweep right......1
Sweep left........2
Sweep up.........4
Sweep down....8
Add up the values for each gesture you want to enable and put the total in /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake. For example, to enable all gestures, the value is 15 (1+2+4+8). To enable sweep right, sweep left and sweep up, the value is 7 (1+2+4)
/sys/android_touch/sweep2wake
Shortsweep
Enabling this makes sweep2wake work with a shorter sweep distance. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/android_touch/shortsweep
0 = disabled
1 = enabled
Doubletap2wake
DoubleTap2Wake (DT2W) allows you to wake the device by double tapping anywhere on the screen. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
Still needs some tweaking!
/sys/android_touch/doubletap2wake
0 = disabled
1 = enabled
S2W/DT2W power key toggle
If enabled, turning the screen off with the power button disables s2w and dt2w to save battery (since s2w/dt2w cause significant battery drain). When you turn the screen back on, s2w and dt2w return to their previous settings. If the screen times out, s2w/dt2w are not disabled this is only if you use the power button to turn it off. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
Enable/disable Magnetic on/off
This setting allows you to enable or disable the magnetic on/off switch used by some cases. You can edit /etc/elementalx.conf to change the setting on boot.
/sys/module/lid/parameters/enable_lid
0 = disabled
1 = enabled

Nice features. Do you plan on a CPU and GPU OC?

whats the battery drain level with these features? If im not mistaken these mods require the screen to be always slightly awake, which over time could cause a considerable battery loss.

If this mod works the same as the one for the Nexus 4, battery drain is surprisingly minimal.

I installed it using fastboot, both features are working. Looking forward to more features in the future, thanks

good to see you here @flar2

installed fine for me but how did you get features working? permission denied for me everytime!!

Beta version 0.2 is now released, check the changelog for details.

It should run fine.
I don't think the undervolting settings from aroma are sticking.
doubletap2wake needs a bit more tweaking.
I'm going to do more work on sweep2wake, but it works pretty well as it is right now.

LINEAR CONFIGURATION
You can change many parameters with this configuration file located in /etc/linear.conf without using 3rd party applications.
Use a file manager with root permissions, making sure you have permission to read/write and the latest version of busybox.
Note - Applications such as trickster there may be conflicts... use script or app, otherwise any post reporting issue will be ignored. This kernel has mpdecision stock, a touch of boost frequency 1267 MHz, this frequency will be displayed as a minimum in applications such as trickster mod. Minimum frequency is 300 MHz.
To apply changes there're 3 methods available:
1 - reboot device
2 - install a file manager with run script feature as root browser, go to directory /etc/init.d and open (as a script) 99linear.
3 - Android terminal emulator and type these commands:
Code:
su
./etc/init.d/99linear
To verify configuration options open log file in /data/local/tmp/linear.log
OPTIONS:
CPU MAX freq
CPU Governor
i/o Scheduler
Readahead Buffer Size
TCP congestion

Are you thinking to update the base kernel to 3.4.97? Maybe there are some good fixes between the versions.

I for one am quite surprised how good this is, I've many kernel's, and kept going back to stock, just wasn't satisfied, but I'm sticking to this one, keep up the good work
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Flashed and will report back asap. Just got my new n5 and am not eager to experiment with kernels therefore I really like your approach to stick as close as possible to stock. Another question: di we need to install trickster mod or fku to be able to get use of the kernel features or can we just let it be after flashing? I am not to keen on trying a couple of hundred different settings to get the sweet spot...

I wish you would start a community on g+ you should get a lot of following.?

FAQ's
1. How Do I Enable Mako Hotplug?
To enable mako hotplug use your favorite kernel control app like faux or trickster. As of 1.8 it is the default hotplug. In trickster you have to turn off both mpdecision and intelliplug. In faux you need to simply select User Control in the Hotplug Section. The hotplug can be configured using Franko Kernel Updater App.
2. Does This Work With CM12 Theme Engine?
Yes, this works with CM12 Theme Engine and should work on all ROMs properly.
3. How Can I Force All 4 Cores Online All The Time?
First you must enable mako hotplug. Then you need to use Franco's kernel updater app or another app that allows you to tweak mako hotplug settings. In fku app select CPU manager then hotplug control. Change load threshold to 0. Additionally if you just want to make it use 4 cores more often. Lower this number below 80 as desired. This should also be possible to tweak via terminal however I've never used that method.
4. Does This Have D2W, S2W, etc?
Yes, those are part of LK which means they are include in this kernel.
5. Help! I think its making me bootloop!:
This may only apply to specific ROMs and I'm unsure ofnwhy it would change anything but users have reported this to fix the issue. If you are trying a fresh install of a ROM boot on stock kernel first, reboot, then install this kernel.
6. You Broke My Phone! Fix It!:
It will be quite hard for me to figure out what is going on if you don't provide details and a log of what happened. To get a log use any file manager with root support and navigate to sys/fs/pstore I then need the console one.
7. What Kernel Tweaking App Should I Use? What About For Tweaking Screen???:
I now Use synapse as my goto app for kernel tweaking since version 1.3. To control the screen I use the app made by Savoca who created the color control we use http://downloads.codefi.re/savoca/kcal
8. Why Add Zram? We Already Have 3gb Of Ram!
Zram was added in build 1.0 as an experiment of sorts to see how much is was actually being used. V 1.0 introduced a bunch of tweaks to the kernel that essentially make it use more ram in order to give better battery life and performance. Zram was put in place to offset this in a way.
9. Wut Is A LZ4?
LZ4 is a compression algorithm used by the kernel. LZ4 is currently the fastest supported option in the Linux kernel and had to be ported from upstream. It is significantly faster than XZ compression which is what we used prior. The downside is it results in slightly larger file sizes due to a lower compression ratio. However with modern hardware this should be moot. The gains should theoretically be noticed as a general performance bump. Boots should be faster. IO should be marginally faster. Anything that's compressing or decompressing stuff, such as ZRam and encrypted devices will utilize this in a big way. Because its compressing and decompressing so much faster it can also be assumed it is saving battery via less CPU cycles.
10. What Is Strict Aliasing And Why Should I Care?:
One of the big things Linaro does with improving Android's performance is fixing violations of what's known as "the strict aliasing rule." A pointer is said to alias another pointer when they both refer to the same location of memory. This is OK and not an uncommon thing to do. The strict aliasing rule is that pointers of different types should never refer to the same location of memory (aka alias each other). Strict aliasing allows a compiler to make some assumptions when compiling and optimizing code that it otherwise couldn't. It's actually one of the biggest optimizations you can do and it is fairly hard to add which is why most people don't. Here's a nice read up on it http://cellperformance.beyond3d.com/articles/2006/06/understanding-strict-aliasing.html#benefits
11. Come on man. 35mhz is pointless bro!:
A common misconception is that if two frequencies run at the same voltage. They use equal power. In fact this couldn't be less true. The equation for power draw has four variables. Two of which are frequency and voltage. Essentially it is the frequency multiplied by the square of the voltage. Then you would take that and multiply it by a few other things such as capacitance. However that is irrelevant for our purposes as it will not effect the relative results. This means that 35mhz running at 500mv will use about 3x less power than 98mhz at 500mv. Now we say well what about compared to 300mhz? I can stably run that at around 650mv. Maybe slightly less. This equates to about 15x less power usage at 35mhz. Well now that we know that. Who cares? Its not like 35mhz will even get used. Its too low! I beg to differ. I would almost guarantee that if you are not running mpdecision 35 MHz will be within the top 3 most used frequencies. Most likely the top used below sleep. And every time it uses that over 300mhz you are saving 15x the power. Additionally 35mhz also runs at a cache frequency of 35mhz as opposed to 300mhz cache frequency and runs a lower bus speed/voltage saving additional power. The same goes for 98mhz. Hope this helps clear things up.
12. How Do I Disable BlueSleep Wakelock?
Open terminal emulator app. Type su then hit enter then type echo 0 > /sys/module/wakeup/parameters/enable_bluesleep_ws all on one line. It won't say anything but if you turn on Bluetooth and check your wakelocks you shouldn't see the wakelock there anymore. This needs to be set on each boot currently. If you experience Bluetooth connectivity issues don't disable this. To enable it again either reboot or run the same command with a 1 instead of a 0.
13. How Do I Use MultiRom???:
To use multi ROM first you must download the MultiRom App from this location http://tasemnice.eu/bordel/MultiROMMgr-v1.180.apk the play store version doesn't work with shamu yet. Then you will need to open it, go to settings and tap the version number until you are a developer. Then click override manifest URL and for manifest URL enter http://tasemnice.eu/multirom-test/manifest.json the. Go back to the main page. You should now have MultiRom and recovery boxes checked. Click install, reboot etc. To install a ROM. Download a ROM you like, go to twrp, click advanced,MultiRom,add ROM. Select internal storage and the Your zip file. Flash it but don't reboot! After that go back and select "list ROMs" select the ROM u just flashed still and click flash zip and select your gapps,supersu etc. After that simple reboot and select your new ROM on boot use the MultiRom app to manage your ROMs.
More will be added as they come up and I think of them.

Configuration Guide:
The following can be done using your favorite kernel tweaking app. I use synapse.
Clock Speed:
To begin I prefer to leave my max clock speed at the stock 2.649ghz. Set min CPU as low as it can go. As of current release this is 35. For the adventurous you can try 2.88ghz. Often I bump the voltage 12mVolts on 2.88 to be safe.
To find your CPU binning run this command in terminal emulator OR look at the first page in synapse near the bottom:
su (enter)
cat /proc/cpu/msm_acpu_pvs (enter)
(Put a space between cat and /proc)
note that the number may be displayed at the beginning of the next line.
It will then display a number from 0-15. 15 being the best. Don't stress over it too much if you score low, its not the end of the world. It just means you need marginally more voltage to run each frequency.
GPU:
As of Alpha 1.3 the GPU can now be over clocked to 700mhz. This is completely optional. To verify your over clock change the GPU governor to performance and see if it spikes to 700 every so often. If it does it worked! If it doesn't you may need to set the frequency to something else then back to 700 again. It remains to be seen what kind of benefits the GPU over clock will give but it is there for those who want it. The recommended GPU governor is the stock msm adreno one. If you encounter lag in games you can try changing it to performance temporarily while playing that game. Simple on demand is a more performance oriented governor.
Governor:
Most people will probably want to just leave this set to interactive. Its a really good governor that is being actively devolped by CAF, Google, and Franco. It also hooks into Francos CPU Boosting interface. Its "smarter" than OnDemand and generally considered to offer better battery life. If you want even more smoothness some consider OnDemand to provide a bit better performance, however you may get slightly worse battery life. This is because OnDemand ramps up to max frequency when there's is load put on the CPU and then slowly works its way down. Interactive scales through the frequencies on the way up and down which saves battery life but prevents it from jumping to max speed as fast if it is needed. Simms22 recommends using the OnDemand governor with "upthreshold" set to 98 and the sampling rate set to 15000. That is the default setting of the Trinity Kernel. Mistertac made the great suggestion of turning the max screen off frequency down to 600mhz if using the interactiveX governor. This will prevent any misbehaving apps from keeping CPU ramped up while screen is off and give better idle drain. The actual number you would have to type in would be 652800 for the screen off frequency. The Conservative Governor is greatly modified by franco, Its no longer a super slow governor as it once was. It also hooks into his cpu boost control interface meaning you get cpu boost when using it. Conservative prefers the lower frequencies, however so if you find yourself having lag, you may want to switch to another.
PowerSuspend:
The only working options in V1.6 of the PowerSuspend driver are lcd_panel and Userspace which can be found in the miscellaneous section of FauxClock. I suggest leaving it at the default choice of LCD_PANEL. In FauxClock if you navigate to the cpu idle/stats area you will be presented with more options. You should see a list of C-states. For example C0: wfi and C1: retention. These are essentially low power states that the cpu can enter to save power. The higher the C number the deeper the sleep. Last I heard, the optimal configuration was to enable C0, C1, and C3. Paired with lowered Retention voltages, this should give you a very low idle drain.
Hotplugging:
Next go to hot plugging section and disable MPDecision(make poor decision) and enable intelliplug or, enable Mako Hotplug(Franco's) by either selecting user control as your hotplug, or disabling both mpdecision and intelliplug. Tweaking for them is split up below.
IntelliPlug:
FauxClock allows you to further configure intelliplug. If you want more battery set it to Conservative (4) mode which will hotplug the CPU more conservatively and save you battery, essentially this means it will use less cores if it can. For most people, leaving it on Balanced (4) mode will be fine. If you want further battery savings you can set it to EcoPerformance (2) or even EcoConservative (2) which will only use a max of 2 cores. IntelliPlug is able to use a single core unlike Mako Hotplug.
Mako Hotplug:
As far as I know the only way to tweak Mako Hotplug is either through the terminal app, synapse or through Francos app. In Francos app select cpu manager, then Hotplug Control. The main one you will need is load threshold. The default is 80. The higher this number, the more load the cpu needs to be under before it will plug the 3rd and 4th cores. 80 is actually pretty good value for most people and it will use the extra 2 cores when it really needs them. If you want to force all 4 cores on for whatever reason, you can achieve this by setting the load threshold to 0. This will effectively disable hotplugging. Of course you can always find a middle ground as well.
Via Terminal:
The sysfs interface for mako hotplug is...
/sys/devices/virtual/misc/mako_hotplug_control
To adjust... Use echo commands...
Ex:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/mako_hotplug_control/load_threshold
The above command would set the load threshold to 0.
Thanks Rignfool!
Voltage Control:
Next go to voltage control. I'm a Bin 5 and I can use a 48mVolt undervolt without becoming unstable. Rember! Never set voltages to apply on boot until you have tested them for a few hours first! Most people can probably get away with a 36mVolt undervolt and nearly everyone should use at least a -24mVolt UV. Also remember that if you are running an over clock you may not want to undervolt that frequency. If you find yourself running into freezes or random reboots remove the undervolt!
Thermal:
This kernel comes with the latest IntelliThermal Driver from Faux123, which is a highly configurable thermal driver, as well as Franco's Thermal Driver which is the stock option. It is recommended you use IntelliThermal over Franco's if you wish to customize the values. Change this option under the Thermal Manager section of FauxClock. The optimal settings that I have found are 70 degrees for frequency throttle, and then somewhere between 70 and 80 for core throttle temp, depending on how safe you want to be. Stock is 80 degrees. Leave all cores checked for both frequency throttling and core throttling. I also leave on GPU Thermal Control, but if you encounter periodic lag in games you may wish to disable it. I also leave Core Thermal Control on as well, though I'm not entirely sure what it does lol. Also FYI, the sliders beneath those two options are showing you the current status of them, they are not sliders you can move.....trust me...I tried for like 5 minutes before I realized and felt like a moron....
I/O Settings:
For I/O scheduler select FIOPS. FIOPS is superior to the other schedulers in nearly every way. It is a scheduler designed for flash storage which is what our phones use. My testing has shown that 1536 is the best readahead buffer. Less or more is detrimental.
ZRam:
ZRam is something designed to optimize the ram of a device. What typically happens when a device runs out of space in ram is it is forced to use something called swap. Swap is normally a partition of a hard drive or ssd depending on what is available where the ram can copy some of it's contents to free up space. The problem is even the fastest SSDs are many many times slower than ram. Android by default doesn't have swap, however it does use a low memory killer which essentially goes through and clears out apps that are in ram to free space. ZRam makes a compressed partition inside the ram itself which then acts as a swap partition. Basically when ram begins to fill up. It compresses data and sticks it in a sealed off area of the ram. This let's it stuff way more stuff into ram than normal. To enable ZRam I use fauxclock. Trickster for whatever reason does not work. In FauxClock go to memory settings, then set the Zram size to 300mb and click apply disk size. Then turn it on and set on boot. You have now essentially boosted the available ram via compression!
VM Settings:
There are numerous tweaks you can do to the VM. For this I use FauxClock but IK Kernel Aduitor can do this as well. In FauxClock navigate to memory manager. The first thing to tweak is an option called swappiness. This control is used to define how aggressive the kernel will swap memory pages. Higher values will increase agressiveness. I defaulted this to 10 however the default is 60. This will use more ram but give better performance. Next is VFS Cache Pressure. This controls the tendency of the kernel to reclaim the memory which is used for caching of directory and inode objects. The default used to be 200. Its now defaulted to 10 meaning more ram usage but more performance. Next up is dirty ratio and dirty background ratio. Some things pass through ram and stay there for a bit until they get flushed to the flash storage. These controls essentially dictate how long it should wait before flushing to the flash storage. The longer you can delay it the better performance and battery you achieve, at the cost of ram. Setting these higher will increase ram usage but increase performance. I recommend a background ratio of 30 and a dirty ratio of 50, however feel free to tweak them as you desire.
Color Control:
Next you may want to adjust Screen RGB, value, saturation, hue and contrast. WrinkleFree over in the Lean Kernel thread did extensive testing with a professional grade $1000 screen calibration tool. You can use this app http://downloads.codefi.re/savoca/kcal to control the screen.
For the most truly color accurate screen at D6500K:
Red - 248
Green - 246
Blue - 255
If you prefer a slightly cooler screen and the tuning the iPhone uses which is D7400K:
Red - 237
Green - 235
Blue - 255
More info can be found about color calibration here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57265483&postcount=620
As for saturation. I like to turn it up a bit and make the colors pop a bit more so I leave it around 65. But quite honestly saturation,value,contrast,and hue are going to come down to tweaking it and finding what you like most. Have fun!
These settings are meant to be used as a starting point. Depending on your cpu binning and desires you will probably want to tweak these slightly to fit your needs. I'll add more as new features get added, I learn more, and I think of stuff to add Hope it helps someone!

Sweet! Good work man.

Thanks for sharing.
It does support the CM Theme Engine, right ?

Yessir using it as we speak

Seems buttery enough. Will let you know the battery life on Bliss 2.0

Good to hear so far. Don't forget to lower your min frequency . Also I recommend either Conservative or Interactive governors ATM as they hook into the new CPU boost. I'll be posting a full configuration guide probably tomorrow. Hope you like it.

New kernel , SUPER

Hope you like it! No doubt I'll be hearing many bug reports when I wake up tomorrow

I've been testing this kernel on a few different Roms without any issues at all really so everyone should be happy with it.
If anyone gets any reboots though do try and get logs [emoji106]

Looking forward to your guide.

Nice kernel. Jist one thing, may be is a feature i dnt know but only 2 cores online when i tried tu push all cores on, just stay with 2 or 1 core on. I changed the hotplug but still the same

Are you trying to do this for a Benchmark?
Using the Faux app you can first set it to Intelliplug , then Performance (4) Cores and that should get you there.
If not, try setting it that way and reboot. I've noticed with this phone that I've had to reboot a lot for my changes to actually take correctly.

Cpu2 and cpu3 are stuck in performance...
And does anyone know where in sysfs to adjust mako hotplug?

Gotcha.. Well once Mr Xile wakes up I'm sure he'll have something for you, not sure myself.

I found it... And I learned a new Linux command in the process...

Haven't done a full battery test yet, but I seem to be getting the best I've seen so far.

Currently if you disable all hotplugs or if you use fauxclock to set it to usercontrol that enables Franco's mako hotplug. Thats why in an app such as faux you cannot easily force two cores online. However if you use Franco's updster app you can go to CPU manager then hotplug control and if you lower the load threshold it will hotplug more frequently. Setting this to 0 will force all cores online. Additionally as mistertac said. Using b intelliplug on either performance(4) mode or balanced(4) will use all 4 cores pretty frequently as well.
