Today, I present you with my one of my latest works.
Basic Kernel
Features :
1. Swap Support
2. Init.d Support
3. Insecure Boot
4. Easy Root (complimentary to Insecure Boot) - You probably don't need root access to flash zips.
5. Debuggable by default.
6. Custom Boot Logo implementation.
7. Based on XXANF3 stock based kernel.
Requirements :
You must be on XXANA2 or higher based firmware to flash this, or else you may get softbrick.
Although this kernel is a modified version of the one in XXANF3 firmware, it is still compatible with XXANA2.

No, just modified latest stock kernel by editing ramdisk.
And as always, if you like somebody's work, do press thanks.

Well, earlier, devs have tried to modify CPU configs and frequency scaling, but that could only be possible on CM10 and not Stock.

Manipulating Governors is simply not possible on stock (probably).
The kernel built by pysch was compiled using cm toolchain, so it worked in CM (and that had frequency scaling and governor support).
Even doc showed us to enable frequency scaling, but he used cm toolchain.
Now its a mystery, why they used cm toolchain (for me its a mystery ). Maybe if I try compiling from source, I will get answer to this, and may even find alternative to have a toolchain which would compile kernel compatible with stock.
But I can manipulate io schedulers, I found 'noop' and 'cfq' as pre-defined schedulers, but in the source I found coding for deadline scheduler as well.
Maybe in the next update, I will implement user choices on schedulers.
Also, aroma will be there and I will redesign the logo (I admit its awful, I made it out of no time). But only if I get time.
Also, the guide about changing boot logo : Here.
@doc he is master Only he knows the mystery But..not an active user
Update 10 February 2015
I have successfully mounted /system as rw by default in this kernel. This means if you flash this kernel on a non-rooted phone (using Odin), it will be able to edit files in /system directory without root access, for example, build.prop can be edited without root. However, I keep my assumptions as, umm, kind of postulates, because I am not 100% sure about these. But I can confirm that next edition of this kernel will have system mounted to rw by default.
Aroma will be seen too. Also I will try to enhance Aroma Options.
ioschedulers will then be left for user choice by default.
Boot logo will be redesigned.
@Mythdroid Bro is this kernel Working what about ur....Sugg i dont think .i should try it ans fu** my phone

I will release a v3, a bit experimental, but hope it works
v3 experimental
http://d-h.st/rBr
I hope someone can test this experimental build
I used a prebuilt dt.img combined with a compiled kernel from source
v2 was fine but I prefer having a cleaner solution by building kernel from sources. The issue is that I did not find how to build the dt.img file as dtb files are not built during make provided by Samsung
At worst, it won't boot to recovery and you have to use odin to flash another recovery or previous v2

OK, flashed. Unfortunatelly, phone during reboots were going straight into download mode with red info saying: "cannot boot normal mode" or similar.
restored previous revovery and all seems fine.

I was expecting it as dtb must be compiled along kernel
However, Samsung sources are not compiling the needed dtb files needed by dtbtool
I am trying to learn how to compile dtb files from the dts scripts along the zImage
However, without a guinea pig device, it is time expensive
Meanwhile, I will provide you with a decent build using a cracked adbd binary to have adb shell with root privileges
I notify @Chenglu as he did a huge work on the dtbtool part
Found this reading:
http://www.armadeus.com/wiki/index.php?title=Kernel-with-device-tree
Will work from there and try a v4 soon
I could generate the dtb files
However, there is only dtbTool for Qcom
Dropping this until we have more decent sources from a developer more used to kernels or Samsung releases info for it if not yet

Hi guys. Please tell me this is real do auto-update kernel like Franco? That would be just super.
hi
g2 docomo flash ok?
Can someone give me an explanation of what are the differences among Highest Level Hook, LCD Hooks and Kernel Mode of Power Suspend Mode? I've searched a lot on Google but without results. Thank you.
I've searched in this thread but I have a question pertaining synapse. Since @ak removed OC from his latest kernel update and I have a profile saved that I would like to use but has the old version (with OC tweaked). I was wondering instead of possibly going back to an older version of the kernel and writing down all the values within the profile excluding OC, if there was a possible way to extract or be able to read the .tgz file and see certain tweaks (such as voltages and other options) and try to delete the OC option or anything. I will take any suggestions or advice and Thank you

I'm not sure if @apb_axel reads this Q&A bot thread
Anyways Synapse reads almost all features that your current kernel provides but it remains a tool to manage features. Nothing is created by Synapse. It means that if you don't see any wake features it means that your current kernel doesn't have them. Period.

Well to be able to use dt2w/t2w you need a custom kernel which supports these features. Adding them to a kernel requires dev knowledges. I'd suggest you to search for a compatible custom kernel.

I believe it is only a global option.
Any idea why I am getting Synapse boot canceled message, when I updated from Code Blue kernel r718 to r755 and then I re-flashed UKM3.6.1 (Nexus 5) ?
P.S. it is fixed now after rebooting using the normal Power Off menu.
Thank you very much. It works on my OPO with AK kernel
I have been working on grouper recently and I felt that there was a certain lack of a stock based kernel with only useful stuff and not custom features. There might be some users like me who haven't been able to customize their tablets much because of schedule and lego kernel hasn't been updated much recently. So I have made a kernel for Lollipop with only required stuff.
Some points to note(they can't be called features)-
Compiled using latest Linraro 4.9 optimized for Cortex A9
Kexec support
All-F2FS support
GPU overclock(franco's method)
Optimized ARM RWSEM algorithm
Entropy tweaks
Agnostic kernel flasher
SuperSU compatible
Download- http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=6701#downloads for boot.img
and http://d-h.st/2bYP for agnostic kernel flasher zip
Note- boot.img is only for All-F2FS partition users while zip can be used for all partition types(ext4, data-F2FS, all-F2FS).

Which root way did you follow? Chainfire or permissive?
I am running rooted factory image on ext4. I flashed the zip, got positive feedback of the boot.img installing, rebooted, saw one app optimizing on boot. But when I go to settings.device the kernel still reports the stock name and in trickster I see the same with no evidence of any new gpu customizability. Thanks.

I am also wondering, how did you convert a Lollipop ROM to All-F2FS? With the 'Convert To F2FS' App from the Play Store? Does it work with 5.0?
Or is all i need flashing a Lollipop ROM on my F2FS device and then this kernel and it will boot?
also can i use this kernel on tilapia? I know i can't use grouper ROMs but never bothered with Kernels until now.

Actually if you flash a grouper version of twrp you can use grouper ROMs on a tilapia. You just lose 3g.

Elite Kernel
Unleash the beast
for Xperia Z3/Z3 Dual (need test)
First of all, I have spent a lot of hours on this project, trying to obtain the true power of this great device.
This Kernel is designed for optimize battery life and give more performance than stock kernel.
Features
Based on lastest sources, 23.5.A.1.291
DRM injection inside the Zip, you don't need flash DRM Fix, just kernel
OC up to 2,7Ghz
UC for better battery life
Optimized voltage tables and voltage control
Thunderplug v5.4, a load based hotplug and optimized for multi-core devices and it is very battery friendly with a great performance
IntelliThermal v2, a custom thermal control better than stock one
GPU overclock up to 657Mhz
Kcal control
More I/O schedulers like FIOPS, Zen, VR, BFQ...
init.d support
Power suspend driver v1.5
Build with UBERTC 4.9 and some optimizations
More stuff that I don't remember
ToDo
Add more governors
Share interactive governor tuned settings for battery and performance
More GPU optimizations
F2FS support
More battery life optimizations
Maybe Quick Chargue 2.0 support.
Maybe sound optimizations
Installation
Install my lastest TWRP (go here)
Make a backup of the partition System (MUST DO, because the kernel change some modules on system)
Select a version according to your needs. (See below)
If you have a TA partition backup:
Download EliteKernelZ3-(current version).zip and extract the boot.img on your pc.
Use the ta_poc tool by munjeni with your TA partition backup.
Rename the new_boot.img to boot.img and replace it on the EliteKernelZ3-(current version).zip
Boot on FOTAKernel recovery, with the phone power off, press at the same time power key and vol- until the phone vibrates.
Flash your EliteKernelZ3-(current version).zip with the boot.img patched.
Enjoy!

If you don't have a TA partition backup (so you need DRM FIX):

Enjoy!

Usage with eXistenZ 5.6.5 (or similar Stock based ROMs) and Magisk
eXistenZ 5.6.5 includes a TWRP recovery inside the rom, and we don't need it since we have some options for recovery here, so for remove it download this file and flash it on recovery.
eXistenZ 5.6.5 also includes SuperSU on the rom and for correclty install magisk we need to remove it, so first of all update the SuperSU app on the Play Store, after go to the app and on settings there is an option for uninstall SuperSU and unroot the System, so tap it (Sometimes if it takes more of 3 mins, close the app and do it again), after that reboot the phone and done, SuperSU uninstalled.
Now the installation/upgrade of magisk using my kernel.
Download the lastest magisk zip and magisk uninstaller zip here, put they on SD card.
Reboot on recovery, uninstall magisk with the uninstaller zip if you have it, flash the kernel zip, flash magisk and reboot to system, and done, enjoy magisk.

Kernel made from scratch, so no special features for now (Sorry guys I do this for a better kernel).
Implemented last_kmsg for a correct bug report.

QC 2.0 enabled (don't expect miracles, it is limited on Z3 so it works with some QC 2.0 chargers)

v3.4.33
Updated linux kernel version from 3.4.13 to 3.4.33.
Enabled a kernel flag for try to enable Assertive Display on Z2 (It just give me logs that help me to know what is happening).
Dropped TWRP inside the kernel, since I have build newest TWRP for leo, for FOTAKernel partition. It has more features and it is more bug free than recovery inside the kernel.

Thanks!! @ShadowElite I'm happy to see another custom kernel with some special features like AndroPlus ones for the MM version!
BTW can you make for 23.5.A.1.203 or other version(with stamina)?
Because i don't know whether this .575 kernel compatible with Stamina mode...
Glad to see another custom kernel for our Z3. It would also be amazing if you could update to. 238
Thanks!
Be patient guys, sony will release the sources of 238 soon
Looks promising, and thank you for thinking about dual sim users !
I'm eagerly waiting for d6633/83 version. Is there a way to choose GPU overclock/underclock ?

Z3 Dual version is build but I uploaded the wrong file so later I'm going to upload it and yes GPU has OC/UC and you can modify it with a kernel app like kernel adiutor or ex kernel
whoa... custom kernel for Z3 at last! great news
I'd like to test it, but I'll have to wait for .238 support
Finally!!! Custom kernel with Undervolting this is what I'm seeks ????
oh my god this is a miracle is real kernel more control over what can not believe thanks thank you very much for your contribution
I`m so happy about z3 mm custom kernel!

Of course it does. It's a custom kernel.
@ShadowElite Do i have to be on 575 base to use your kernel? And good timing i just bought my Z3 and was dissappointent that there were no custom kernels,thanks. Also can we ask for changes or features on your kernel?
Does this kernel have kexec hardboot, or is there plans for implementing it?

You can have 570 575 203 238 firmware and this kernel will work, when Sony release the source of 238 I update it. Also you can see the most important features on first post and you can ask for features

Never mind. When installing this using twrp, does it overwrite everything or just installs the os?

It's only the kernel. It won't touch your OS.

Thanks for creating this kernel.
Apparently, after flashing this kernel through Odin, the tablet stuck at the Samsung screen(displaying the rom information at top-left corner) for at least 5minutes without any response during rebooting.
Hence, I have to restore the tablet back from the previous backup (using TWRP).
Is this a common problem and any solution to this?
Thanks.

Hi Ashyx, thanks very much for the new TWRP from the other post and specially thanks for this kernel.
Just have one question, I see at the beginning of the post you say its a T555 kernel but when I go inside the "source code" link I see at the end of the page a "README" file that says:
-Permissive kernel for the Samsung Galaxy Tab A - SM-T350/T355/T550/T555
So my question is... is this kernel compatible for the T550? If not, will you do one for ir?
Thanks a lot for all the work.

This kernel is for the SM-T555 only.
The source code can be used to build either variant.
Which variant do you have?

Thanks very much, when i flash it I will let you know how everything worked.
Just one question.. the name of the file I downloaded, its called has the firmware compilation.. this one ends with a 4 and the compilation of the MM I have installed is the same one but mine finishes with a 1.
Does that matter? Can I flash even so? What could happen?
Hope you can get what I mean, sorry for my bad english and explanation.
Thanks again for all the work, youre great.

The kernel is built from the latest source code. It's an update so should be fine.
Just make a backup of your current one with twrp then flash the new kernel.

@ashys I think he meant the link for the compiled kernel file. If not I'm lost too.
