WELCOME TO ELITE KERNELS!
Our main goal behind building these kernels is to create a setup that gives a balance between performance and battery life without straying too far from stock. We like to have our cake and eat it too. Our kernels include performance, memory, and scheduling tweaks that enables your phone to come to the party when you are hammering down on it and need performance ASAP, and to go to sleep faster than a basset hound on a warm summer day. We put these kernels together mainly for our own use; so what we release is what we personally use. We hope you enjoy them too!

What is enabled by default? We like to control our kernels with a script run at boot for defaults, although any kernel app can control the built in settings. Here is what we set as default upon boot:
Sweep left 2 sleep
Doubletap 2 wake
CFQ IO scheduler with 1536 read ahead
If you want to change anything you can open up /system/elite/Elite.sh and save and execute (or use your favorite control app). Current method for N Preview has script in /system/su.d/Elite.sh

Recommendations for flashing:
1. If you have flashed another kernel, we suggest you get back the kernel that the ROM you were on came with before flashing Elite Kernel. Easiest way to do this is dirty flash the ROM again.
2. If you think you are getting a bug that is kernel related, please report all of your current setup. Including ROM(and version), any other kernels you've flashed, if you have dirty flashed a ROM update, and any other information we might need and also include a log if possible.
Got it

Tried flashing on the primary ROM. Multi ROM seems to be present.
Atleast secondary ones boot fine.
finally ! I saw that you were preparing this on the clean ROM thread
thks mate !
@op any recommanded control app and kernel profils (settings) ? am kinda new to these kernel things (I always try the default settings only to not scew things up)

We set these up out of the box to our liking so the recommended settings are the default ones. I use trickster when I do mess with things though.
First impressions: Been onboard 9 hours on Tesla rom (unofficial) a friend of mine builds for Shamu...Extremely smooth!!Slow drain on battery already seems noticeable to me. Played a zombie killer fps game and no stutters whatsoever. Using kernels default settings. Tks guys! :thumbsup:
Kernel up and running on AOSiP.

You should be able to pull in the latest 4 BFS patches from the bfs_gc branch. I think I should have pulled them into the BFS_standalone branch but wasn't paying attention they are all minor, but good things from at least a developer perspective

this is the goal. It makes it easy to just do something like "git pull zen BFS_standlone" and only get the bfs stuff, etc. Also to not have to search through pages of commits to find a certain set of changes.
I get a little unorganized in the misc branches, but I can't have one for everything

Kernel running great so far, thanks!
May the 4th be with you kernel version posted in OP.
Buck added in some BFS patching. Thanks @bbedward.
Can I Flash this over my current kernel (Franco) Or do I need to re-flash my ROM first? Thanks for the work guys.

Voltages for now

One of those days. I'll get the mods to move this to the right place. Sorry
awesome! thanks engine!
OP updated with these install instructions!!! Sorry for another braincramp.
If you have SElinux Changer already installed:
You need to uninstall it first. Set it to "enforce" first. Then Settings>apps and clear "data" and "cache", Force stop then uninstall. Reboot. Then install the kernel.
Hopefully you made a backup first!
It may still work right, but just in case.
Just flashed. I seem to get random reboots anytime I change settings to anything other than the default settings.. I'm using trickster.. Maybe I'm doing something wrong because if I recall correctly, I use to have the same problem with Barrin anytime I flashed a kernel and messed with the settings... Thoughts?

I'm not sure what the issue would be. But if you had the same thing with BarRin, then maybe it's something with either or both SD's . Try pulling the ext SD and see if it happens. If nothing changes, then format int SD.
Did you have SeLinux changer installed. If so see the post above yours.
Other than that, Flashtool is my only other thought.
Also, MAKE SURE you don't set Trickster "on boot" until you're sure the settings work with your phone.

I'm doing this kernel in stages as I'm learning this. I don't want to put out a kernel that doesn't work.
Overclocking, voltage control, kexec patch, faux sound, readaheads, are all on my todo list for starters. And that's in no particular order.

Thanks, I'll look into it. It's something very very random and doesn't happen often...when it does, the screen freezes for a couple seconds and phone reboots...
Help?
So I am new at this kind of stuff so I have a couple qustions.
First when ever I try to change the CPU governer or GPU governer, after a bit the screen would freeze and the device would reboot. I am using the trickstermod. Am I doing something wrong?
Also when the device reboots, am I doing any harm or is there a safety trigger to prevent damage?
Thanks.
I know if its not in the OP its probably doesn't, but does this support multiboot?
Thanks for all your work none the less!

Post #9 lists the items he is trying to implement into the kernel. Multiboot is on that list. Also I don't know if it would matter until there is an updated multiboot twrp available for us to us.
Sweet!!!

Every phone is different. What works for one person, may not work for another.
The reboots/freezes means your phone doesn't like that combo. Try another. Just do not set it on boot until you know your phone can handle it.
Sometimes just changing the scheduler will make a governor work.
/me is going to install this right now.. I really cant imagine this phone running much better.. but here goes :highfive: :highfive:

Hello Engine,
I am blown away by the amount of projects you take on. How the heck are you accomplishing all this development? When did you start dabbling with Roms and Kernels? I want to get in to development, but just wasn't sure where to begin. I would mainly like to start with basic romndevelopment, if there is such a thing as basic.
Lastly, I apologize for posting in this thread, but when I saw that you are doing kernels now I was just blown away
Thanks Engine for all you do. Your an amazing guy.

"I Don't Always Run Custom Kernels. But When I Do, I Run Vindicator"
-Worlds Most Interesting Man
Pushbullet Tag: vindicator-n7
You can also follow me on G+ if you would like:
[email protected]
Intro:
This is a kernel I developed alongside @Xileforce for Nexus 7 2013, this IS an offical Vindicator Kernel and follows the same ideals and guidelines as the Vindicator Kernel for Nexus 6. I hope you like it and I won't be offended if you hate it. All ideas are welcome and I'll try to help as best I can. If you wish to use this kernel in a rom , feel free! Although I would love it if you let me know just for my own curiosity.
Goal:
Keep kernel as lean as possible while adding certain, desirable features and optimizing for maximum performance and battery life. The default settings should be optimal for a balance of battery and performance without a need to tweak.
Disclaimer:
If your tablet blows up, its not my fault. If your tablet somehow gains perpetual battery life, I'll take full responsibility.

FAQ
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, 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 of why 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 Tablet! 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 and navigate to proc/last_kmsg. I need this file for debugging.
7. What Kernel Tweaking App Should I Use?:
I now use Synapse as my goto app for kernel tweaking.
8. Why Add Zram? We Already Have plenty 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. 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
10. 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.
11. How Do I Use MultiRom???:
To use multi ROM first you must download the MultiRom App from the Gooogle Play Store. Open it. You should 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.

I want to be a better tester. I have one question though. The ROM I'm running is cm based and I'm getting different colors. Can you include a caf based kernel please. An d which is the best app to change settings with cz trickster don't let me change sound control
Edit: other than that the kernel looks great man. Its good and fast I'll test battery life for you on my next charge

Hell yeah! Heard many good things about this kernel. It's really great to see it being developed for our beloved Flo. Sweet!
Just a quick heads up... I'm getting a boot loop. Running latest OptiPop which is 5.1.1 r2 and I have data and cache partitions set to f2fs. Any help is appreciated.
You stoped me flashing. Maybe it's a ramdisk problem? Flash stock kernel when flash this one. Give a feedback after that
And first request. Please add BLX\BLE http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2469261

OK...on opening syn the min freq is 918. If I move the slider to the extreme left it indicates 94mhz. I save & when I reopen syn, the freq is back to 918.
Not at all saying this is a problem with the kernel, just what I'm seeing with syn...
Thanks.

stock kernel doesn't support init.d script,so if you want to exec init.d you should follow this step:
1. create /system/etc/init.d 755 use twrp
2. flash kernel
3. enable "Emulate Init.d" by kernel Adiutor

What kernel is much better ???
@army9000 I don't think USB fast charge is working.
Also, which app would you suggest to be used to change kernel settings like change the governor's and all.
I tried kernel adiutor , works decently.
Battery life has improved but I haven't seen so much improvement in performance. Scored 29785 with stock kernel and 32255 with your kernel on antutu.
Hello army9000!
Currently I'm using Vitataf's modded stock Rom. IHO, the best Rom ever for X1.
But after I tried this kernel, the Rom lost some features, like native adblock.
Is it possible to use your kernel and keep the original features of the Rom?
And hey! Thanks for your work and time, keeping the development of our beloved device up!

this is a real unesesary question, bro if u install a custom kernel obviously you lost the stock kernel features.... and u ask if u can combine the features the answer is yes if u have theknowledge about programing

As I said before, adblock is a feature of the modified stock ROM, not a different kernel.
And obviously, if I had that knowledge, I wouldn't ask if it is possible.

If adblock function is in kernel,that's impossible;If it doesn't,you can try a factory reset.
Flashed today. Feels very smooth and fast.
@army9000 Just want to know if you're gonna discontinue the other one lollipop stock kernel.
IMO R3 still the best in battery & performance. Although, currently I'm still using and testing this kernel too.
Anyway, many thanks to your effort for our beloved moto x.

In my opinion this Kernel runs smoother AND ist better in Power management.
Does anyone else have the Problem that 3G is sometimes mit working, only edge? After reboot it connects to 3G!
Also WLAN sometimes is connected but every App says offline. Same as above: reboot and everything works fine.

Aero Kernel is a kernel for the Nexus 6. I am aiming for stability, smoothness, and slimness, while retaining a few select features I can't do without. I try to keep a stock-like source, and mostly just cherry-pick in features and fixes from the great developers of XDA that I deem necessary over stock. I will be maintaining 3 branches: Stable built by Uber Toolchains, Beta Built by Uber Toolchains, and Stable built by Uber Linaro Toolchains. To find the differences, please do your own research of the two, but the only major difference is the toolchain that the kernel is compiled with, the different versions have all the same features. Some just find one or the other better so I provide you with both options. Special thanks to @The Flash for his upstream source I used and his help. Also thanks to all the other amazing devs from which I cherry-picked from. Note that this is not in any way affiliated with any kernel control app (there is an "Aero Kernel Control", I have no affiliation with it or the respective dev whatsoever.)
Disclaimer:
I am not liable nor responsible for unusable and/or broken devices due to flashing my kernel. You are fully responsible for what you install on your device, including my kernel.
Features:
Upstream with Linux kernel 3.10.104
Built with AnyKernel2

Its not implemented yet, i had lots of errors when i put it in . Once i get it working it will first be in a beta, then stable. And msm sleeper defaults at 4 cores during suspend, i can change this but it can easily be changed via kernel auditor mod or any kernel control app.

Ironactive is just interactive with the upstream CAF patches, which most kernels add anyways because they improve the governor quite a bit. No point to have two governors that do the same thing lol.

Whatever suits you. Flash is correct, it is essentially interactive, but slightly improved in my opinion. You can look over the C code and decide for your self. I just want to throw out the option of using it.

DISCLAIMER:
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
I don't provide support for OneUI-pie & treble ROMs, asking me if I will ever do is just a waste of time.

FAQ: (Read this before flashing the kernel and reporting bugs!)
Q. Gaming performace isnt good in this kernel!
A. Disable Samsung Hotplug from your preferred kernel tweaker app! Hotplug is disabled in builds from R2 onwards!
Q. Whats Fsync? should i disable it?
A. fsync transfers ("flushes") all modified in-core data of (i.e., modified buffer cache pages for) the file referred to by the file descriptor fd to the disk device (or other permanent storage device) so that all changed information can be retrieved even after the system crashed or was rebooted. This includes writing through or flushing a disk cache if present. The call blocks until the device reports that the transfer has completed. It also flushes metadata information associated with the file (see stat(2)).
Too scientific, didnt read! : In layman terms disabling Fsync gives you better performance with the risk of a Data loss/corruption during a system crash!
Q. I cant Flash NFS injector, FDE.AI, MAGNETAR and other tweakers on this kernel!
A. I have added a in-built kernel blocker to block installation of these so called "AIO kernel tweakers". You shouldnt install these tweaks in my opinion! If you still want to use a Tweaker, i prefer you use KTweak though i wont be providing support for issues if u have flashed any mods or anything of this likeliness!
Q. I have an issue and i have reported it in the XDA thread, yet nobody replied to me.
A. I might be slow in responding for issues reported in the XDA thread, if u want me to reply more faster, report it in the Telegram support group!
Q. My phone gets HOT while using this kernel!?
A. Short answer: It's your own issue, fix it yourself. Nobody makes a kernel just to burn your hands.
Long answer:
* Install Termux app from Play Store * Enable screen rotation, open Termux in landspace mode * Type this command: su -c top -d 2 * A list of processes will appear and refresh with 2s interval. Find which process consumes the most CPU usage with [%CPU] column and the package name in ARGS column. You should see the culprit of your issue.
Reminder: There is no such thing as "I have nothing in background but the phone still heats up". There definitely something happen and 99% of the time it's some of the rogue apps running in background.
Thanks to Diep Quynh for finding this one out!
I've tried it and for some reason left top corner of the screen never responded to touch. Ex: I couldn't turn on wifi from quick toggles n back arrow in some apps as I couldn't make a touch on left corner...
I didn't collect logs as I immediately reverted back to old kernel.

Its a ROM issue, which has been already identified by the rom dev, u can join their telegram group to know this
New kernel build is up guys! =)
Currently running the newest build, runs great, thanks for the work. 6h SOT and still 50% battery. Just wondering, any reason hotplug is disabled? Does it really impact performance that bad? Or is it just samsungs implementation? Tried to build a custom version using your source (with a big core oc and an undervolt), cant seem to for some reason. Once again, thanks for the great work. Any way to buy you a Coffee?
Hotfix build is uploaded, sorry for the inconveniences caused by the bootloop issues =)

Hi mate!
1. hotplug is disabled cuz in my tests i found em to degrade performance and doesnt make much of a difference battery life wise, hence disabled and yes its a samsung implementation.
2. For OC u can pick ace2nutzers a2n kernel commits, i have tested em and it works
3. as for the undervolt, i havent tried em and probably wont be =)
4. Thanks very much, i dont need coffee or beers and stuff, u can hit the thanks button =)
Thanks and regards,
Stay Safe!
I am using this kernel on android 10 oneui
after i flashed the kernel i had weird issue concerning samsung clear case
when i close the case the screen turn on and when i open the case the screen turns off!
it acts in the opposite manner!
N950N supported?
is there any way to change to enforcing?!
