NOTE:
I'm not a DEV and not pretending to be one, I'm a android enthusiast.
I would like to thank all XDA members that are helpful.
I build and mod stuff for my personal needs and then I share them.
Do I want something in return? NO.
You don't like it, no problem, there are enough good DEV's with there kernel to help you along

Samsung Error fixed
Hopefully support for GT-N5100.
CivZ-StormBorn-Rev2.0 (07-Jul-2013)
One kernel to support GT-N5110 & 5100.
CivZ-StormBorn-Rev2.0 (09-Jul-2013)
Separate kernels for 5100 & 5110 due to ramdisk changes between them. (Problems with Stickmount & USB OTG so I had to make two different kernels , zImage is the same but the ramdisk is different.)
So it still chows 2.0 in settings as nothing changed in the zImage (boot.img = zImage + ramdisk)
CivZ-StormBorn-Rev2.1 (11-Jul-2013)
3GUSB Dongle support when connected with OTG usb cable with the PPP-Widget
Connect to the internet without a wifi connection.
Just set your APN in the widget and connect it, it works fine with my Huawei E1552 3GUSB dongle
This is a nice option for people that got the GT-N5110 wifi only but I think even people with the GT-N5100 can use this option.

rt2800usb - Include support for rt33xx , rt35xx , rt53xx
Atheros Wireless Cards support
DOWNLOAD AND INFO IN OP
Note on GPU clock:
Trickster shows more selectable frequencies but you will notice that when you leave the app (back button) the max clock will always be 533MHz even if you selected 700MHz.
I did not eneable higher clocks as I still need to figure it out , I got a test kernel with higher clocks but I don't see any real performance difference so I don't make it public now.
Result at 1.9GHz

Thanks for sharing so you said no OC for now, is this kernel good for better battery life?
Thanks civato, it works for me. I tried cifs mount to samba server - good. Androbench reports huge improvements in I/O so fsync must be working right. Cheers
Booted great for me too. I reverted because my init.d is customized already and one of my scripts wasn't running, but wonderful to see.
My wish list for kernels includes undervolting before it includes overclocking, especially with performance enhancements in i/o coming online.
I applied the i/o script in the toolbox forum earlier today and at least benchmark performance jumped. Not sure about overall system response yet, not that much time with the toy today

No dynamic fsync is off by default, you need to enable it with terminal command. See op on how to.
Your I/O score is higher then stock because of the init.d tweak included.
dynamic fsync, what is this?
gesendet vom Galaxy Note 8.0
I eventually sorted out the problem I was having with my init.d script.
The new kernel identifies the sdcard differently. The stock kernel refers to
/dev/block/vold/179:17
the custom kernels need to be told that it is
/dev/block/vold/179:49
Folks who are rebinding their SD cards to extend their storage should keep that in mind.
Once I'd ironed that out, I found that the system was using more cpu at idle than it had been. Using governor tweaks (mostly around the "ignore nice" setting) my cpu idles at 200-300 mhz quite a lot of the time.
I saw a lot more spikes to 1.4-1.6 ghz with the new kernel.
I suspect that's a result of the different superuser more than anything else, but I ultimately reverted back entirely.

I don't know what governor tweaks you use but mine idles at 200MHz and only jumps to max when needed.
My battery life is normal and nothing higher then on stock kernel.
I didn't even change anything regarding this in the source.
With dynamic fsync on, approx 3x improvement in sequential write:

ps:
Working on my git , will be done tomorrow.
PS:
Included trickster app give you a good look on the cpu interaction.
I'm currently running happy at a 75 mvolt underclock, and if this proves stable I'll probably try for a 150 mvolt next.
Thank you very much for providing a kernel that supports undervolting!
I use two init.d tweaks. One chanages the frequency step from 37% to 5% - I'm trying to get the processor to step up in 100 mhz increments, rather than jumping from 200 to 800 and on to 1400 quite so much.
I'm also using "ignore nice load," so the processors ignore niced processes when counting their backlog and deciding whether it's time to increase clock.
I wasn't (and don't) think that there was anyting in the kernel that was making my system idle at higher load.
I do think that the superuser that got installed with your binary was doing more work than the su's I'm used to working with, since it was offering to ask again in 15 minutes after the grants of privilege escalation.
I ultimately fixed it by extracting the boot.img file from your package and just flashing that, then adding the modules and init.d scripts in root explorer, and putting back my preferred superuser.
I'm currently running happy at a 75 mvolt underclock, and if this proves stable I'll probably try for a 150 mvolt next.
Thank you very much for providing a kernel that supports undervolting!
One thing that is odd on this guy - when I undervolt, many but not all of the voltages take. There are a few of the voltages that it seems Samsung really, really wants to have a little higher, especially in the 200 / 400 / 600 mhz range but some up higher than that.
when will be kernel available for N5100? wlan version is boring
the first rule of kernel club is you don't ask for deadlines in kernel club.
Now we all get to hang out at your house and drink beer forever. Except you. You have to get a job to support us.
Big thanks, 1.1 flashed - all looks good to me.
info next update
Some info on next update.
Rev1.3.
Redid the uv so it works on all frequencies correctly. Meaning the lower frequencies.
I added new lower frequenties 50 and 100 MHz.
Over clocking up to1800 MHZ, maybe 1920 if I get it.
boot up speed is 200 and 1600 MHz , if you want lower or higher speeds you need to set it.
Enabled arch power and some more optimizations.....
release today or tomorrow.

THIS THREAD HAS BEEN RETIRED | THIS IS FOR ANDROID: 2.3.4, 2.3.5, 2.3.6, 2.3.7
Developer: Gokhanmoral | Donate | Website | Original ThreadDownload: SiyahKernel v2.6.14 | ZIP | TARExTweaks - The Kernel Tweaker
2.6.14 (Latest):
Preempt_rcu
Xz compression (to reduce bw on the servers. other than that, don’t believe anybody telling you that it is faster)
New touch recovery (the one in my ICS repack) with gestures
GPU staycount implemented (this is the main reason of this release. this was droidphile’s request and I could not say no to him )
Disabled autogroup (samsung ICS kernel doesn’t use it neither)
ARM_ERRATA_754322 (once again, ICS has it)
Reverted workqueue implementation to old one
Some cleanup of redundant and non-necessary code
Reverted BFQ changes which were causing lags and lockups (thanks to Entropy512. I used the version in his repository. it was the easiest way )
Added “reboot into download mode” in advanced menu of CWM recovery and also added power-off back in. I had no time to remove dual-booting options. instead, I put “not implemented” message. they are ready but I am having a tiny problem while prompting user to choose the rom. you’ll have it in ICS, I hope.
Some fixes and corrections in extweaks interface (thanks to Entropy512 for some of them)
Initialization of led buttons to off (thanks to myfluxi)
Enabled cpu alignment (thanks to codeaurora)
Some other tweaks and “small changes”
2.6.13:
Fixed decoding issues because of the new cpuidle driver (thanks to Entropy512)
Set default I/O scheduler to deadline
Reverted lots of code back to v2.6.9 (based on the user experience, it is the best version until now)
Completed universal config interface implementation (the app will be posted when it is finished. the implementation at the kernel side is ready)
You may need to flash this in CWM recovery if you mess with the default config (especially when trying too much undervolting. although most of the settings are safe, changing gpu voltage and freq settings may cause lockups or bootloops): siyah-resetdefaultprofile.zip. this script will reset default profile and your device will boot with default settings.
This will be the last GB kernel release of SiyahKernel.
2.6.12:
Fixed BTHID issues (thanks to Entropy512)
Some wifi driver changes to prevent wlan_rx wakelocks preventing the device to sleep
New cpuidle driver from galaxytab (thanks to Entropy512)
Reverted top-off current back to default
2.6.11:
Replaced the recovery with Hyperdroid Redpill Kernel Recovery. (Thanks to Hyperdroid team and Redpill kernel developer(s)). this recovery can also mount both internal and external sd. (thank you [email protected])
Set the default cpu governor back to ondemand. conservative governor settings are still the same. ondemand governor settings are tweaked a bit (50000-90-5)
Changed some mali internals (set staycounts for steps to: 0-1-1 and down threshold for second step is set to 35). I did not use AndreiLux’s settings for not breaking the compatibility with voltage control app but I highly recommend you try it because it can save a lot of battery juice.
Some patches from upstream
2.6.10:
Default governor is set to conservative with sampling rate of 20msec. those who still say that lionheart is different than conservative governor should inspect the sources or those who don’t know how to do that should try this kernel to get a proof. if you still want EXACTLY the same lionheart governor, just flash lionheart.zip. Unlike what others say it will behave EXACTLY THE SAME as lionheart governor in void kernel if you flash it on this kernel, neak or several others who use netarchy’s change on conservative governor.
(Postponed to 2.6.11 to make a fair comparison of the conservative governor effects) drastic changes in gpu frequencies (thanks to [email protected]). you can use voltage control app to use modify them if they cause any lag in games or video playback but I didn’t feel any lag and they are just perfect. freq set is (40,167,267) with thresholds 85% 30% 80% 30%.
(Postponed to 2.6.11)Some other tweaks for performance and mostly battery life (made cpu hotplug threshods a bit high and some patches from upstream etc)
Set default i/o scheduler to bfq. it seems that song skipping doesn’t happen with bfq @ 100MHz (thanks to [email protected] for the feedback)
Applied Mel Gorman’s patches to SLUB allocator.
This release may not be as battery friendly as v2.6.9. I will make ondemand governor default and use different settings in v2.6.11 to target more battery life. apart from the slub allocator change (which should not effect the performance anyway) all changes in this release can be applied to v2.6.9 by using init scripts or voltage control app (just flash lionheart.zip and set i/o scheduler to bfq).
External SD/Internal SD are mounted backwards, careful when deleting information from them (emmc/sdcard) - Backup first!
Works with Samsung / CM7 / MIUI
Gokhanmoral - "Although I compile at&t version, Entropy512's kernel may be a better choice because there are some differences which I cannot test. He knows what he is talking about and I mean it..."
Flashing .ZIP's in CWM will change once flashing this KERNEL. You will now use the POWER BUTTON to select, and CHOOSE ZIP FROM INTERNAL SDCARD. Same goes for doing Backup/Restore, choose the Internal Card.
USB Debugging is turned off first flash, Just turn it back on Settings->Applications->Development
Great Explanation of Governors & I/O Schedulers

About source codes: I do not release source codes during beta testing. I do not use git. I have already proven that I share source code, but only once per release. I don't think that mods will be uncomfortable with this but if they are I can create an account in github and share an old code just like most of the other developers do. I will not choose that path if I don't have to. You can download sources for the releases using the links below. I will simply ignore mails and posts asking about the source code because they are already shared. Also, GPL doesn't force me to use github nor it forces me to release the source code as soon as possible. Therefore, releasing the source code may be delayed for several days. If you don't like this sue me

That's great... more options. I'd like to see Hardcore's kernel ported too.
Here are some screen shots of Siyah kernel being OC to 1.6 on conservative governor. My rom is Unnamed 1.3.1 This is without any major tweaking such OC the GPU. Its extremely powerful

Here are some random Antutu bench scores. These were done on 1.2 GHz conservative governor. Awesome, we finally surpass the galaxy nexus
And we didn't need to OC to do it too. With ICS, we'll blow galaxy nexus out of the waters!

Question? If were running a hellraised rom will this kernel work our do we need an att rom?
Edit: just looked at his thread in the i9100 section. the kernel said compatible with aosp roms as well as in cm7 and miui. Is this true for this one?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Any issues with it? Wifi, reboots, battery life, ect, ect?
Edit: flashed it and everything went smoothly. No issues to report on. According to his thread it's just as stable as stock. Hope it stays that way for us.
Sent from my páhhōniē
I would also link to know if it's compatible with cm7/miui
Looks really interesting
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
Here's a quick link to the Siyah kernel over in the i9100 forums. Everything as far as information about the kernel should apply to our phones except the obvious (battery charging steps, anything with the home button, in other words strictly hardware difference related points) as he now has made an i777 kernel version.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1263838
This kernel should get posted in the development thread by someone willing to keep up on all it's changes as the Siyah kernel seems to get updated all the time. Unfortunately once I heal up from surgery I won't have the time to be able to do that.

Confirmed flashed this kernal and I am using cm7. Everything is kosher so far.
don't work USB with siyahkernel for i777
I got about 5500 in Quadrant (1.6 ghz, conservative) but everytime I oc to 1.6 and try to run CFBench the phone crashes at Java MFLOPS.

The CWM .zip will not download via phone browser, and when downloading from a windows 7 (IE browser) PC it successfully downloads but when flashing it says the package is bad. I think he needs to reupload it or put an MD5 checksum in place.
For stability, I ran a setcpu stress test on my phone all morning at 1.6 (nearly blew up my battery) and had no issues at all on conservative governor.

Lulzactive - Thanks to Tegrak
Based on Interactive and Smartass. When workload is greater than or equal to 60%, the governor scales up
CPU to next higher step. When workload is less than 60%, governor scales down CPU to next lower step.
When screen is off, frequency is locked to global scaling minimum frequency
Virtuous
Virtuous is a modded smartassV2 which gives even more battery time then smartassV2
Intellidemand - Thanks to faux123
This is an intelligent ondemand that enters browsing mode to limit max frequency when GPU is idling,
and (exits browsing mode) behaves like ondemand when GPU is busy; to deliver performance for gaming and such.
Intellidemand does not jump to highest frequency when screen is off.
Lazy - Thanks to Ezekeel
The Idea here is to eliminate any instabilities caused by fast frequency switching by ondemand.
Lazy governor polls more often than ondemand, but changes frequency only after completing min_time_state
on a step overriding sampling interval.
Lazy also has a screenoff_maxfreq parameter which when enabled will cause the governor to always
select the maximum frequency while the screen is off.
-Ondemandx:
Basically an ondemand with suspend/wake profiles. This governor is supposed to be a battery friendly ondemand. When screen is off, max frequency is capped at 500 mhz. Even though ondemand is the default governor in many kernel and is considered safe/stable, the support for ondemand/ondemandX depends on CPU capability to do fast frequency switching which are very low latency frequency transitions. I have read somewhere that the performance of ondemand/ondemandx were significantly varying for different i/o schedulers. This is not true for most of the other governors. I personally feel ondemand/ondemandx goes best with SIO I/O scheduler.
-Lionheart:
Is a conservative-based governor. The tunables (such as the thresholds and sampling rate) were changed so the governor behaves more like the performance one, at the cost of battery as the scaling is very aggressive.
To 'experience' Lionheart using conservative, try these tweaks:
sampling_rate:10000 or 20000 or 50000, whichever you feel is safer. (transition latency of the CPU is something below 10ms/10,000uS hence using 10,000 might not be safe).
up_threshold:60
down_threshold:30
freq_step:5
Lionheart goes well with deadline i/o scheduler. When it comes to smoothness (not considering battery drain), a tuned conservative delivers more as compared to a tuned ondemand.
BadAss Governor:
Badass removes all of this "fast peaking" to the max frequency. Badass will also take the gpu load into consideration. If the gpu is moderately busy it will bypass the above check and clock the cpu with 1024Mhz. If the gpu is crushed under load, badass will lift the restrictions to the cpu.
Superbad -
A "superbad" super smooth rendition of a highly optimized "smartass" governor!
Darkside -
A "slightly more agressive smart" optimized governor!
What else-----
-SLQB - (SLAB allocator with Queue)-(both)
This memory allocator is designed for small number of CPUs system (such as desktop or smart phone devices). This allocator is design to be simple and it is optimized for using order-0 pages as much as possible (order-0 pages are the simplest therefore quickest type of memory in a Linux system to allocate).

INSTALLATION
1. Install zip from TWRP Recovery
2. Follow the instructions, if you don't know what to do, use the preselected option
3. Reboot!
S-OFF highly recommended for easy installation
The installer includes a method to flash the boot.img with s-on, however, some people still have difficulties. If it doesn't work, extract boot.img from the zip, reboot to bootloader and do:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Note: you must still run the installer to get all the configuration files!

NOTES:
Configuration
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 are interfering with your settings If you're on ViperXL, make sure your settings in Venom Tweaks are the same as the ones in /etc/elementalx.conf (for example, sweep2wake settings)
Kernel Tuner
You don't need Kernel Tuner because the ElementalX installer sets everything up automatically, but if you want to check or change settings, Kernel Tuner is recommended. Just be aware that Kernel Tuner is set by default to apply settings on boot, which can interfere with the settings you chose in the ElementalX installer.
Venom Tweaks force close
If Venom Tweaks closes when you try to access the CPU tab, go to Settings->Apps->Venom Tweaks and push the Clear Data button. This should fix the problem.
CPU Optimization
Vanilla: stock voltages, stock l2 cache frequency, stock bus bandwidth
ElementlaX: increases l2 cache frequency and bus bandwidth, allows you to choose voltage level in installer
Ultra: increases l2 cache frequency and bus bandwidth even more. May cause instability, please test thoroughly for stability if you use this option.
Overclocking
Overclocking (underclocking) is optional. Whatever frequency you chose in the installer will be set at boot for both CPUs. Frequencies can be changed any time using apps like No Frills or Kernel Tuner. WARNING: not all devices can handle overclocking. The stock maximum CPU frequency is 1.5GHz. In versions of the kernel prior to 4.2, the frequencies were labeled wrong so you won't be able to overclock as high with version 4.2+.
CPU voltages
CPU voltages can be changed with Venom Tweaks, Kernel Tuner or System Tuner. Be careful, lowering voltages could cause instability. If you have stability problems even at the highest voltages, try the vanilla version
Minimum CPU frequency
Sets the minimum CPU scaling frequency. 192MHz is the recommended default and should work fine on the vast majority of devices. The 384MHz option is available for devices that experience random reboots while the device is idle. It is recommended that you try increasing the minimum voltage by 25mV before changing the minimum CPU frequency.
Max screen off frequency
This sets the highest CPU frequency available while the screen is off. It is recommended to disable this for stability. Also, do not set this to 192MHz or 384MHz, as many devices experience random reboots at these frequencies. The default is 486MHz, which should be safe for most devices. If you experience random reboots while the device is asleep, set this to a higher frequency. This setting can be changed in /etc/elementalx.conf or using an app like Venom Tweaks.
GPU frequencies
3D GPU: 480 (overclocked) or 400 (stock)
2D GPU: 266 (overclocked) or 200 (stock)
Governors
Intellidemand is the default CPU governor. There are other governors included, however, intellidemend is recommended for best balance of battery life and performance.
Installing a new ROM
If you install a new ROM, it will overwrite /etc/init.d/89elementalx and /etc/elementalx.conf. The kernel will run perfectly fine without these files, but you will lose your settings and certain features.
Sweep2Wake
Sweep2wake allows you to wake up your device by swiping your finger across the capacitive buttons from left to right. Swiping from right to left will put it back to sleep (sweep2sleep). There are now options for sweep2wake/sweep2sleep, sweep2sleep only, and disabled. If you use ViperXL, make sure to enable sweep2wake in Venom Tweaks. Note that in Venom Tweaks, the sweep2sleep only option can be selected by choosing Enable (no buttons backlight).
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
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
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/bln
0 = disabled
1 = BLN enabled
What is zRam
zRam creates a compressed block device in RAM that is used as swap. Although it claims some of your RAM as swap, everything written to swap is compressed. This increases the apparent memory available to the system and helps with multitasking. Swap files on disk are very slow, but with zRam the swap is on RAM so it can be read as quickly as regular memory. Even though the data need to be decompressed, modern CPUs can decompress quicker than if it had to be to read from disk. The penalty is cpu usage, which could drain battery; however, this is likely negligable in daily use. I didn't enable this by default because not everyone will want it. This is for heavy multitaskers and will allow you to quickly switch between more apps and have more tabs open in your browser without refreshes.
zRam is disabled by default. If you want to enable it, edit /etc/elementalx.conf
change ZRAM=0 to ZRAM=1 and reboot.
You can check if zRam is working by typing the command "free" into the terminal. You should see the total used and free swap. If these are all 0, then zRam is not enabled. Please ensure that other apps are not changing your minfrees, zRam works best with low minfrees and high swappiness.
NTFS support
This is for anyone who wants to use OTG to connect a USB stick or portable harddrive formatted with Microsoft's NTFS filesystem. You will need Stickmount or a similar app, HTC Sense+ won't detect NTFS.
Enable/disable fsync
Disabling fsync can increase filesystem performance. However, there is a small risk of data loss if the system suddenly crashes. If you can't afford to lose data, keep fsync enabled. Many custom kernel disable fsync, I leave it enabled by default for safety reasons.
XBox controller support
There is an experimental module that supports XBox gamepads, however, some people have reported that it draws too much power and doesn't work. I've suggested trying a powered USB hub, but still not sure if it works.

Nice thanks! I will be trying this now after I update my SuperJELLY to r201
Niceeeeeee I'll give this a try, downloading now..
Anyone try this yet?
Basically I just need to know if the modules load or not.
If they do, we're good to go.
If not, I need someone to type this in terminal:
su
insmod /system/lib/modules/oc_mod.ko
dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt
and post the relevant lines of dmesg.txt
Flashed it wouldn't let me overclock and it booted
Edit: flashed again it boots I'm overclocked too
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Im on Super Jelly and phone wont go past boot animation
Alright, don't actually install it, we just need to test the modules.
Could someone who has the stock JB kernel extract wp_mod.ko and oc_mod.ko from the zip file and try to insmod them from the terminal and let me know what the output of dmesg is?
Also, could someone post the output of:
uname -r
It works just aroma installer is a little buggy

OMG!! a kernel!! thank you so much bro!! we need some kernels for this device :good: thank u.. i almost **it my self when i seen there was a new kernel!! lol... im down to help test but im only good for flashing zips.. let me kno if i can help.. thank u flar2
It works for me. Overclocked at 1.8 on superjelly
$tack$
so i take it we good to flash this??
I have a question. If the modules didn't flash.. my WiFi wouldn't work right?... Or what wouldn't work?
$tack$
I think I might have fixed the installer, not sure how things work on this device.

This won't affect wifi. Your existing modules stay the same.
The kernel is the stock JB kernel, I just had to modify the boot image to add init.d support.

Whats Included in kernel ------------
Added Governors --
brazillianwax
smartass
Smartassv2
Savagedzen
Smoothass
Scary
InteractiveX
Minmax
Userspace
Intellidemand - Thanks to faux123
This is an intelligent ondemand that enters browsing mode to limit max frequency when GPU is idling,
and (exits browsing mode) behaves like ondemand when GPU is busy; to deliver performance for gaming and such.
Intellidemand does not jump to highest frequency when screen is off.
Lazy - Thanks to Ezekeel
The Idea here is to eliminate any instabilities caused by fast frequency switching by ondemand.
Lazy governor polls more often than ondemand, but changes frequency only after completing min_time_state
on a step overriding sampling interval.
Lazy also has a screenoff_maxfreq parameter which when enabled will cause the governor to always
select the maximum frequency while the screen is off.
Lulzactive - Thanks to Tegrak
Based on Interactive and Smartass. When workload is greater than or equal to 60%, the governor scales up
CPU to next higher step. When workload is less than 60%, governor scales down CPU to next lower step.
When screen is off, frequency is locked to global scaling minimum frequency
- Superbad
- a "superbad" super smooth rendition of a highly optimized "smartass" governor!
- Darkside
- a "slightly more agressive smart" optimized governor!
-Ondemandx:
Basically an ondemand with suspend/wake profiles. This governor is supposed to be a battery friendly ondemand. When screen is off, max frequency is capped at 500 mhz. Even though ondemand is the default governor in many kernel and is considered safe/stable, the support for ondemand/ondemandX depends on CPU capability to do fast frequency switching which are very low latency frequency transitions. I have read somewhere that the performance of ondemand/ondemandx were significantly varying for different i/o schedulers. This is not true for most of the other governors. I personally feel ondemand/ondemandx goes best with SIO I/O scheduler.
-Lionheart:
Is a conservative-based governor. The tunables (such as the thresholds and sampling rate) were changed so the governor behaves more like the performance one, at the cost of battery as the scaling is very aggressive.
To 'experience' Lionheart using conservative, try these tweaks:
sampling_rate:10000 or 20000 or 50000, whichever you feel is safer. (transition latency of the CPU is something below 10ms/10,000uS hence using 10,000 might not be safe).
up_threshold:60
down_threshold:30
freq_step:5
Lionheart goes well with deadline i/o scheduler. When it comes to smoothness (not considering battery drain), a tuned conservative delivers more as compared to a tuned ondemand.
BadAss Governor:
Badass removes all of this "fast peaking" to the max frequency. Badass will also take the gpu load into consideration. If the gpu is moderately busy it will bypass the above check and clock the cpu with 1024Mhz. If the gpu is crushed under load, badass will lift the restrictions to the cpu.
-Virtuous
Virtuous is a modded smartassV2 which gives even more battery time then smartassV2
Added Io-scheduler --
VR io-scheduler - Unlike other schedulers, synchronous and asynchronous requests are not treated separately,
instead a deadline is imposed for fairness. The next request to be served is based on it's distance from last request.
- SIO - Simple IO-Scheduler-
SIO is the default scheduler in this kernel. It is widely-regarded as the best all-round performing IO scheduler for android. It is low on CPU usage and optimized for flash-based storage. From the creator - "Based on Noop, Deadline and V(R) IO schedulers. This algorithm does not do any kind of sorting, as it is aimed for aleatory access devices, but it does some basic merging. We try to keep minimum overhead to achieve low latencies. Asynchronous and synchronous requests are not treated separately, but we rely on deadlines to ensure fairness."
- BFQ - Budget Fair Queueing IO-Scheduler-
From Creators
* Copyright (C) 2008 Fabio Checconi
* Paolo Valente
*
* Licensed under the GPL-2 as detailed in the accompanying COPYING.BFQ file.
*
* BFQ is a proportional share disk scheduling algorithm based on the
* slice-by-slice service scheme of CFQ. But BFQ assigns budgets,
* measured in number of sectors, to tasks instead of time slices.
* The disk is not granted to the active task for a given time slice,
* but until it has exahusted its assigned budget. This change from
* the time to the service domain allows BFQ to distribute the disk
* bandwidth among tasks as desired, without any distortion due to
* ZBR, workload fluctuations or other factors. BFQ uses an ad hoc
* internal scheduler, called B-WF2Q+, to schedule tasks according to
* their budgets. Thanks to this accurate scheduler, BFQ can afford
* to assign high budgets to disk-bound non-seeky tasks (to boost the
* throughput), and yet guarantee low latencies to interactive and
* soft real-time applications.

VM tweaks (explained below)
VM Tweaks
dirty ratio and dirty background ratio 1 & 2
This controls how often the kernel writes data to "disk" (in our case the internal microSD system card, not the removable microSD card). When your apps write data to disk, Linux actually doesn't write the data out to the disk right away, it actually writes the stuff to system memory and the kernel handles when and how the data is actually going to be flushed to the disk. These values represent a percentage, the higher the percentage, the longer it waits to flush, the lower the percentage, the more often flushes will occur. Now remember, we are dealing with solid state storage, not the traditional disk platter and spindle. So we are actually able to delay flushes a little longer with solid state versus a traditional hard drive disk.
dirty_expire_centisecs
How old "dirty" data should be before the kernel considers it old enough to be written to disk. It is expressed in 100ths of a second.
dirty_writeback_centisecs
This is the interval of when the writeback daemons periodically wake up and write "old" data out to disk. It is expressed in 100ths of a second.
min free kbytes
This is used to force the Linux VM to keep a minimum number of kilobytes free. The VM uses this number to compute a pages_min value for each lowmem zone in the system. Each lowmem zone gets a number of reserved free pages based proportionally on its size. Default is 2048kb.
overcommit_memory
This controls overcommit of system memory, possibly allowing processes to allocate (but not use) more memory than is actually available.
0 - Heuristic overcommit handling. Obvious overcommits of address space are refused. Used for a typical system. It ensures a seriously wild allocation fails while allowing overcommit to reduce swap usage. root is allowed to allocate slighly more memory in this mode. This is the default.
1 - Always overcommit. Appropriate for some scientific applications.
2 - Don't overcommit. The total address space commit for the system is not permitted to exceed swap plus a configurable percentage (default is 50) of physical RAM. Depending on the percentage you use, in most situations this means a process will not be killed while attempting to use already-allocated memory but will receive errors on memory allocation as appropriate.
Swappiness
A property for the Linux kernel that changes the balance between swapping out runtime memory, as opposed to dropping pages from the system page cache. Swappiness can be set to values between 0 and 100 inclusive. A low value means the kernel will try to avoid swapping as much as possible where a higher value instead will make the kernel aggressively try to use swap space.
VFS Cache Pressure
File system cache (dentry/inode) is really more important than the block cache above in dirty ratio and dirty background ratio, so we really want the kernel to use up much more of the RAM for file system cache, this will increas the performance of the system without sacrificing performance at the application level. The default value is 100, as a percentage, and what you want to do is lower the value to tell the kernel to favor the file system cache and not drop them aggressively.

- zRam is not enabled by default unless on CM10 ROM, for AOKP to enable it flash the wedgess-zram-enabler.zip in CWM
- If for whatever reason you want to disable Zram after you have flashed the .zip, just go to ect/init.d and delete 00zram
People will ask so i'll just post it here---------to check if zRam is enabled go to terminal emulator or similar and type
Code:
free
or alternatively
Code:
cat /proc/swaps
Also added CIFS support....
What is CIFS???
Server Message Block (SMB) or Common Internet File System (CIFS) are normally used to provide shared access to files on a network, mostly involving computers running MS Windows.
It allows you to conveniently mount/unmount your network accessible file resources and access the files transparently via your favourite Android app (playing music / videos, accessing documents etc.) Settings are stored on your SD card with permissions to write also to your SD card.
Now download CifsManager or similar app and configure it
Please Click Thanks :good:
Phone wont even show the boot logo after flashing this kernel.
Phone wont even boot up.
Hold the power button,phone vibrates (normal) and after 5 seconds,i hold the power button and it vibrates again .

Probably because it's only been tested on mango as I couldnt fnd tseters for all devices, so if it doesnt work post ur device and ill re upload
EDIT - Oh wait you are using mango, does your md5 match the one in post #2
can I enable z ram on cm10 by going to setting/performance/ z ram on this kernel?

Thanks to the testers :highfive:
it's just awesome
tnx a lot wedgess
Ok, am trying it, the performance is 5% smaller than that of M66B kernel, battery life need to test further, will see tomorrow and post results. Thanks a lot to wedges and welcome to the forum .
One request i would have though: Could you add the 24 MHz frequency its wonderful for battery life, and in combination with smartassV2 it doesn't compromise performance at all.
Long rebooting (stuck) from Power Menus, I need to press Camera Key to continue
Normally reboot if I execute it from Terminal
^^^ that is a known bug.
The performance (on gaming)is lower than Fxp kernel (only a bit)
But battery saving is very good.

Hi Folks!
So here is the gift i was working on! Here I present you Arsenic.Kernel for Oxygen OS and OldDroid's AOSP. Rebased to new source released by OnePlus, Some features "might" be different from cm/aosp version starting with the new naming convention (changed from "release" to "version") for these builds.
Made this Separate thread for OOS builds for better user experience and easier debugging of reports.
If you are running a Custom Kernel already then plz CLEAN FLASH Oxygen OS before flashing Arsenic, official zip doesn't offer system wipe so dirty flash wont work, you gotta clean flash manually!
Zip doesn't offer any module changes and doesnt mess with the ramdisk so you can feel free to dirty flash it over Arsenic's previous versions( Dont forget to clear data of kernel adiutor or anyother kernel control app you're using before ).
Keeping op short and simple and with keeping New users in mind, here is a brief description about kernel:
Features:
Supports Oxygen OS and OldDroid's AOSP Only!
Built with Latest GCC 4.9 toolchain from Google.
Device and target flags enhancements and improvements, etc.
Kernel compressed with XZ.
Upstream CAF fixes and changes.
USB Fast Charge.
Switched to -O2 Optimization level.
Adreno idler. Nuked in OOS builds (as of now)
Lowered Min. GPU Frequency level to 27 Mhz.
Krait C-states customizations.
ExFat support.
Disabled Lots of useless Debuggings and Redundant Code.
New Governors and I/O Schedulers.
Optimized compression.
Various Upstream backports.
SOC Driver Tuneables.
Enabled Arch Power.
Optimized RWSEM Algorithm.
FiiO USB DAC driver for better input detection
Options to disable various wakelocks.(Use them wisely!)
TCP Congestion algos (like westwood,cubic etc).
CPU Input Boost.
Voltage Control.
Various under the hood Battery and performance improvement patches(Advance users can look at my git, each commit is there with proper explaination).
Stability and Battery backup at its Peak!
Available Govs: conservative, impulse, interactive, ondemand, performance, powersave, smartmax, userspace, wheatley, yankactive, zzmoove.
Available I/O Scheds: row, bfq, fiops, noop, cfq, ZEN, Tripndroid.
Keep an eye on the changelog for more/newly add features as this list wont be updated regularly so either have a look on Changelog or just flash Arsenic and explore yourself..!

Bugs and issues:
Little longer Boot Time as compared to stock kernel - working to decrease it! (cant you wait a couple of secs. to boot? it should only bother those people who reboot every hour. lol)

Default profile for zzmoove gov. is set to 0 by default, change it to your desired profile, more info about profiles are HERE.
I prefer ybat (profile_number=2).

Since All of these settings are not visible in official Kernel Adiutor, kindly use Kernel Adiutor Mod from HERE
F.A.Q's :
Can you add [this] and [that] feature to arsenic?
Something I pride myself with this kernel is that it does not have a bunch of random, useless features or patches mashed into it. Everything put into this kernel is thought out well and tested. I see a lot of works being made popular because it has [this] and [that] feature when really, it's nothing revolutionary(atleast to me). As a matter of fact, most things added to any kernel will not make it 5x better than any other kernel. Most of the time, simple is better; and in this case it definitely is!
Any plans of upstreaming the linux version?
No, and i wont. Though i have test builds ready but they wont make up to the release version. Upstreaming linux version doesnt make much difference infact it does degrade Arsenic's performance. Reason why i'm against it is that I've removed almost all possible useless redundant code and debugging present in it to improve kernel in all aspects, upstreaming will not only add alot of redundant code but will also add debugging functions for those redundant code! Which will not only increase kernel's size but will heavily impact on kernel's performance, battery backup and stability. Currently 3.4.0 is "THE" most stable branch and i'd like to keep it.
Why MPDecision? Why not remove the hell outta it?
You want me to remove something which was developed by some of the finest engineers of this world and is currently being shipped on almost all android devices..? Dont you think there would have been a reason why Google chose MPDecision over anyother hotplug.
What most of the users arent aware of is that, MPDecision works best with the default thermal solution, all it needs is a little touch..
As far as adding an additional hotplug, m still thinking about it.
Why so rude?
Not rude, Determined. Everything i do has a reason behind it. And I do sometimes accept feature request if they seems to be worthy.

OOS is not like a custom rom so to be on a safer side follow the above procedure.
You can dirty flash the future releases though, but if you are coming from anyother kernel then follow these above steps to avoid any conflicts.
Kernel is great Nimit few days now running like a champ!!

By default hardware restricts USB charge current to <500 mA when connected to a PC/laptop, USB Fast charging driver syncs it with AC charge current rate.
Though rate varies accordingly to load average and device usage. Its managed by system for better result instead of forcing with a predefined value.

other custom kernels might leave postboot scripts and modified ramdisk which might conflict so, its better to clean flash.

Just set minimum freq of gpu to 200Mhz instead of 27Mhz for gaming.
And its "OnePlus X", do you really expect it not to heat even while playing games?
Even if i add some custom thermal solution it will impact on UX while playing games as it will try to throttle CPU to control heat which might bug you lol
