For changelog

For further plans if any

Seems cool! Can't wait for the FN model :silly:

Good job!
Good!
i'm happy to see this thread,
You just opend o door for new oportunities!
you have all my consideration for this.
if i understand well, this is for MM botloader?
can you share the wlan.ko(pronto_wlan.ko) from J500HXXU2BPK4 'till you make it to work with all versions?
Of course if you are agree with your kernel to be using in other rom ports!
Thanks!
EDIT:
Thanks...again, i didnt checked the zip archive.
i just see the wlan.ko in it!

@KingRaheel
Congratulations!
I see that you've chose Sabermod, a nice choice. Did you try 4.9+ toolchain (including 4.9) ? I'm curious if it works on stock kernel.

@KingRaheel
I don't have the knowledge, but after looking at other kernel, it seems that the change you've made for Linux kernel 3.10.104 is not enough! Other files must be changed too, not only that. I think you have to cherry pick or merge the Linux kernel changes.
Take a look at the changelog of 3.10.104: https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/ChangeLog-3.10.104 .
Also, I'm not sure, but I think the kernel version must be updated one by one, with it's changes/patches. E.g.: from 3.10.49 to 3.10.50, then 3.10.51 (I don't know if .50 and .51 versions exists, I just gave an example).

Waiting for J500F ???

Thank you sir. Yea its for MM bootloader. . As of now i am trying to figure out how to make the sources of j500h to work on other models. I know that it can be done using different defconfig files and i had got the zImage as well but i think there is something more to it. Hopefully once its out for other models, people can use it to port or build some rom. If they do then my work paid off

Thank you buddy. Yeah i had tried with uber 4.9 and it worked but the kernel was kind of creepy lol. Random reboots for some reason. I solved that today and i think ubertc is way better than sabermod in terms of stability and most importantly battery life.

Yes you are right. The whole thing has be changed. Thats why i simply changed the version as its initial. Lol. I am getting many compilation errors with the patches made for linux 3.10.104 as i think its due to some config mistakes . So i am doing a lot of research on it and getting the errors solved one by one.

1 overclock is necessary for gaming..The games (World of Gunship) i play lag but PBS by zonik was awesome the games didnt lag..I think at least overclock the GPU to 700 MHZ
2 why dont you just add overclock? i mean if people doesnt want overclocking they can just use app to use normal frequency. can someone tell me this if you put 2.1GHz frequency and i still use 1198MHz frequency will there be any difference if you dont put overclocking and use 1198MHz?
i will explain further if you dont understand 2nd question....
I use J500F currently using Resurrection remix

No need of explaining further. Not all people think the same way as you have said. Overclock to high frequencies will cause high temperature shoot up which will cause lag sometimes. Speed thrills but kills. PSB was smooth because it was using DJSteve kernel which ofcourse had all overclock capabilities. I will add overclock later once i add support to other variants.

May I know what was the cause of ubertc random reboot and how you fixed it? It is related to flags?
I'll try myself on stock kernel and I guess I'll run into same problem. Anyway, when I tried ubertc on cm kernel, phone was stuck at Galaxy J5 logo.
Regarding Linux kernel version, did you upgrade it one by one till 3.10.104?

Yes flags. If any soft freeze then reboot. Lol. Actually the case should be opposite that is if any hard freeze then reboot. When i reported to samsung they changed it immediately. Like within 30 mins. Stupid samsung. I changed mine using menuconfig. Thats how i got sabermod also to work . No fault in toolchains
Ofcourse one by one and compile or else you will get 2 pages of errors :laugh: .So i am on 3.10.99 now and i got many errors for 3.10.103 . So just trying to figure out where is the bug

UPDATE:
Wifi confirmed working on most of the basebands. Thanks to all my testers out there

Keep up the good work !! :good:
Your J500H tester ...

Wishing a Happy New Year!
One advice would be to provide all other modules too!
Since Kernel is optimized from Toolchain, all modules are affected too.
This will provide a performance increase and stabilization.
You will see that module sizes are much bigger now.
Good luck!!

Gongratulations for the nice work..This device needed a kernel for M6.0.1.. I hope & for other models in the future if you can ofcourse .. Happy New year I wish ! (sry for english)

New update coming soon guys. Support for FN model also added. The kernel will be built again from the scratch with many changes to sources.
Regards
Raheel

Can someone help me to compile the wlan module.

[KERNEL][3.10.108][LA.BR.1.2.9][MM]Destiny kernel

Hello everyone, it's a pleasure for me to share this great kernel; this is focused on stability and battery life
My dream (since I bought this phone) has been to have a kernel that suits my needs, to have great features and a rock-solid stability
I put all my time and heart to get this awesome product.
Please read this thread carefully. I will try to do my best to help you if you do the same
I'm back at it again, wishing you a happy new year and with a shiny new kernel, with a LOT newer kernel base and with a LOT of unneeded crap removed, this project has taken me more than a year to polish and I'm still doing it, but I've reached a state where I think it can be tested by you. My second m4 has completely broken (because it fell down xD), so that's why I need you guys to test it and give me feedback.
I promise you that it this is a whole different experience, you won't have any random reboots or battery drains at all

Some notes:
THIS WILL WORK ONLY ON UNLOCKED BOOTLOADERS
For now I won't be adding features because I need to finish other things
About features:
Compiled with Linaro 4.9
Improved cpu frequency scaling, before it used to ramp like crazy, and now if you aren't doing anything it will stay at the lowest freq, you can use this app to check
I've also added a wifi module replacement procedure that will Always Work(TM), regardless if it has been screwed up by other custom kernels, so you won't need to worry about no wifi and/or moving the module manually
Latest upstream Linux kernel version 3.10.108
Optimizations from LineageOS (I've based my kernel on their kernel for the msm8916 family)
This kernel is based on the latest tag of the CAF branch for the msm8916 family on nougat (LA.BR.1.2.9), which has got a lot of security and stability patches compared to our ancient stock kernel base
Cubbins' kanuti_hwid driver for bands -> The stock kernel had a really crappy solution for the mobile bands of the world regions, so this awesome guy coded a driver for this!
Pure mdss driver + pcc adjustments
Pstore support
Latest sdfat opensource filesystem, replacing the ancient and closed source tuxera module
Usb HID keyboard/mouse support you can install this and you're good to go!
Refactored bmm050 magnetometer driver
bma2x2 accelerometer sensor driver from CAF -> The stock kernel had an extremely initial and ancient version of this driver, I've spent more than a month porting it to the improved and newer driver from CAF
A LOT of cleanups everywhere, most likely you won't get to understand the big amount of removed crap so I'd suggest you to check my source repo
To control the kernel:
Use Kernel Adiutor
Installation instructions:
Just go to recovery and flash the zip!
Enjoy :')

Hi @dani020110!
First and foremost, thanks for sharing your kernel!
After reading the mutha [email protected]#k'n thread, i did not yet find what features it does have.
You only state that we can't ask for unstable features.
Can you give us a spec list?
Thanks!
Oh and one more thing....no love for E2363?

kernel not working in sony m4 e2312
I used sony e2312 26.3B.1.33 stock android 6.0. I certainly did the right thing under the guidance and download the e2312. after flash your kernel, I restarted the sony logo But it has powered off and I've tried restarting but still did not fix the situation. I think that your kernel fails. wish you help me fix this soon

Sir @The Sickness may i ask if 925F version maybe flash on edge korean version or is any one here have manage to flash it on edge korean version..?

Where is this supersu aroma? I had never heard about an aroma installer for supersu, i'm interested in it

Hmm thanx bro im try it

Any chance to get 925W8 compatibility?

I got G925F and Twisted Kernel is not working for me on NNE5.1.... Its start to boot then reboot and back to recovery.

You must everytime reflash root (magisk/supersu.zip) directly after flashing new kernel.

Awesome work! @The Sickness One question though, is this the same kernel as the one you pulled off in the Original development section?

Kernel features:
Build with custom toolchain Linaro GCC 4.9.4 2017.01
Full -O2 build with device and target flags enhanced, linaro build improvements, etc
Less is more: stockish builds from BKL-L04 EMUI8.1.0.107 source drop
Systemless installer (doesn't touch system/vendor partition, OTA friendly)
Removed some debug and logging options
ARM enhanced performance and battery patches
CVE security patches, general upstream and miscellaneous fixes
Several CPU Governors (blu_active modded own governor by default - fastlane mode available!)
cpu-boost CAF driver ported for kirin with some added improvements (Dynamic Stune Boost included)
No OC, use 300HZ base timer frequency
Enhanced TCP methods (westwood is default), Network and Wifi tweaks and updated drivers
Several I/O control tweaks, added schedulers FIOPS and ZEN v2 is default, tweaked and upstreamed filesystems (F2FS, ExFAT, NTFS, CIFS & NFS) (WIP)
Removed verify and doesn't force encryption, patched SafetyNet flags to pass CTS (WIP)
Stock thermal driver by default
Optimized crypto routines (WIP)
Swap and ZRAM off by default
Vibrator Strength tunable and Gesture Haptic Feedback control (touchpanel an FPR) (WIP)
Graphic stack fixes and reworked GPU driver
USB Fast Charge (USB mode up to 900mA with MTP on)
Battery/Notification LED control (WIP)
FS fsync toggle on/off
Wakelock blockers available
zx2c4's wireguard support
CDROM emulation on mass_storage (compatible with DriveDroid 0.10.36+)
init.d support (put your scripts in /system/su.d or /su.su.d [systemless SuperSU], /magisk/.core/post-fs-data.d [Magisk])
Compatible with Kernel Adiutor and others
DOWNLOAD KERNEL ZIP (No mirrors please)
Warning: If you come from other kernel or have any issues, you should dirty flash your ROM before flashing blu_spark zip to avoid problems.
Reflash ROM -> if you want root flash SuperSU or Magisk (default, no plugins/modules) -> flash blu_spark.
If you are already rooted or upgrading between blu_spark versions, just flash the kernel zip. Also uninstall or clean data of any kernel control app you're using.
About bugs and troubleshoots: don't bother to post if a log isn't ready or without steps so the behavior can be replicated. I only active support stock EMUI with NO mods whatsoever (apart from root). That includes NO support if using xposed, Magisk with modules, etc.
If you're using custom ROMs (including EMUI based ones) you're on your own. I'm only interested on debugging stuff in stock and stable EMUI.
Save the SOT and battery stats/screenshots for general threads, here we deal with development, not personal tastes and results.
Also don't spam this thread with LOS or other ROMs stuff like "this don't work, my app doesn't open, etc" , no OT about OTAs, apps, ROM bugs, Recovery/TWRP troubleshoots and other userspace stuff. There's threads for it, use them.
Going back to stock: This kernel installer doesn't change your filesystem (systemless).
You can backup your ramdisk.img and kernel.img with TWRP before flashing blu_spark if you want to go back to full stock or just dirty flash your full ROM.

blu_spark r8
All right crew!
blu_spark has made to Honor View 10!
First build is up :highfive:
Lot's of stuff merged in, we now have a nice and stable baseline to work with.
More of the usual missing goodies to come in future builds :fingers-crossed:
It was tested in L04 model with latest EMUI 8.1.0.105 so any other FW your results may vary.
To install you must use TWRP, @Pretoriano80 Unofficial TWRP is recommended.
You must have stock (or rooted) ramdisk and kernel before install.
blu_spark_r8-view10_66f0c4b.zip
build: use Linaro GCC 4.9.4-2017.01 for now
First kernel build with too much stuff to talk about, check git
ramdisk and installer changes to match View 10 stuff

Keep it real, keep it true, keep it blu :highfive:
Keep in mind: I will give no active support for custom ROMs (including EMUI based ones).
Meaning, if using anything besides stock and stable EMUI don't bother posting about it.
I am only interested on debugging stuff in stock and stable EMUI (with logs and reproducible steps to replicate the issue).
Don't spam this thread with LOS or other ROMs stuff like "this don't work, my app doesn't open, etc" or debugging features.
Also don't go spam and bug reporting on ROM threads if using this.
No mirrors please

nice glad to see linaro gcc was usable and was just something odd in my end... lol
for some odd reason on ubertc was usable as gcc fir me...

Nice job....
Does this support changing charging rate in KA?
Can i install this on BKL-L09 model?

BKL-L09 is still with 8.0 emui.
I doubt this will work, but will try this later. It would not brick my phone right? Just need to back up stock kernel and fish it, if phone doesn't boot then flash backedup kernel. Right?

backup your ramdisk.img and kernel.img and tell us
(note, if you read the thread a little [like the couple posts above you], you'd see that it really only works on the US version, but, do what you want....)

Try to enable bonding mode inside defconfig, most of the new wifi driver support this option

I can checknit out, but some OEM don't enable that on 2.4G because it can introducr wifi issues with some APs.

Introduction
NOTE: This kernel is currently not being updated. Please use another more up to date one if possible.
Hello everyone, this is my personal kernel for the Pixel (sailfish) and Pixel XL (marlin). While I am not a super star kernel developer, I do know my way around it. My philosophy on kernels is pretty simple:
Follow stable Linux always. Updates will be delivered within 24 hours of their release to kernel.org.
Stable kernel rules work best (only add small things when possible).
Security and stability are paramount. Vulnerabilities are patched as soon as they are disclosed.
Features will be added only as needed (I have a list of things in the FAQ I will NOT add, even if requested).
Hopefully you enjoy
Important thread information!
I refuse to acknowledge/respond to bug reports that do not include clear steps to reproduce, a logcat, and a console ramoops (if random rebooting) or a dmesg (any other issues). Follow this guide to do this.
Keep things civil, I do NOT tolerate flaming of any kind.
OT is allowed.
Features
Here are the major features of the kernel (feel free to explore Github)
Up to date with the October security update (android-9.0.0_r0.21)
Up to date with the latest stable Linux version (3.18.125)
Latest binder and sdcardfs commits from kernel/common
Several subsystems converted to use power efficient workqueues
Mainline improvements to CFQ
Kernel hardening from CopperheadOS
Westwood as the default congestion algorithm
Sultanxda's wake boost driver
The following user facing features:
Backlight dimmer
Color control
HBM
Maple I/O scheduler
Sound control
USB fast charging
Wake gestures
Wakelock blocking
Vibration control
Latest WireGuard snapshot (0.0.20181018)
Built with a self compiled Clang 7.0 toolchain with a local initialization sanitizer
Hides bootloader unlock from SafetyNet (can still fail through other means)
Available to flash with AnyKernel2 (thanks to @osm0sis) [zip will automatically detect when Magisk is installed and patch the kernel so reflashing Magisk becomes unnecessary]
Downloads
Primary: https://github.com/nathanchance/marlin/releases
NOTE: Although the kernel's name is Marlin, it is for both Marlin and Sailfish (fully unified).
Installation
NOTE: These sets of steps should work for both initial installations and upgrades. All sane kernels on this device are just replacing the kernel image and maybe adding some cmdline parameters, which this kernel won't care about. If there are ANY issues after flashing this kernel over another, be sure to flash the stock boot image for your ROM, TWRP + Magisk if you want them, then the kernel before reporting any issues.
Through TWRP:
See their instructions for further information, you can install the kernel with TWRP temporarily booted or permanently installed.
Boot into TWRP.
Flash the zip (flashing Magisk is not necessary if you already have it installed).
Reboot and enjoy!
Through FK Kernel Manager (requires root):
Download the zip (and optionally, the md5) from my server
Tap on "Manual flasher"
Navigate to Download
Tap on the zip, select Auto-flash, and choose one of the options.
Reboot and enjoy!
NOTE: On custom ROMs, you must do a reboot between installing the ROM and installing the kernel/Magisk on a clean flash otherwise you may end up in a bootloop...

Frequently asked questions
1.1 Q: I am having an issue, can you help me?
1.1 A: I am not an amazing kernel developer but I will certainly try my best. First, start by reading the release posts, as I may make note of a particular issue. Also search the thread to see if I have discussed it before. If you see nothing, please provide me with a dmesg/last_kmsg and logcat, your ROM/kernel version, and a detailed description of the issue, following this guide. If I can't reproduce reliably, I'm not going to fix the issue.
1.2 Q: Can you add xyz feature?
1.2 A: If you link me the commits or tell me what kernel you had the feature in, I can take a look at them. I will not go digging super hard for commits and I will ignore requests that don't include this information. I won't promise that I will merge every request but I will always take it into consideration. I will NOT add the following:
Overclocking or underclocking of CPU or GPU
Undervolting
Any governors other than sched/schedutil
Any schedulers other than cfq
Anything that compromises performance
1.3 Q: How do I control the kernel?
1.3 A: I want to be very clear: the kernel does NOT need to be tuned to be useful. Most of the improvements are under the hood and don't require any user intervention to take advantage of them. In fact, if you don't know what you are doing, you could degrade the experience.
To control the user visible features of the kernel listed above, I recommend using either @franciscofranco's FK Kernel Manager (which has Flash Kernel support for downloading and automatically flashing the latest kernel zip along with some nice, user friendly ways for tuning the kernel) or @flar2's EX Kernel Manager.
1.4 Q: OMFG MY BATTERY SUXXXX PLS FIX!!!
1.4 A: The kernel doesn't drain any battery, use an app like BetterBatteryStats to figure out what app is screwing with your phone.
Thanks to:
The various other developers for their patches
@osm0sis for AnyKernel2
@franciscofranco for adding Flash Kernel support to FK Kernel Manager
@phantom146 for the thread banner
All of you guys for viewing the thread
A note about donations
Quite a few people have asked to donate to me in the past and I have turned them down. I am not in this for the money, this is my hobby, something I truly enjoy. If you truly want to donate to something (it is not expected in the slightest), I recommend an entity like the Open Source Initiative, the Free Software Foundation, XDA, or any one of the people I have thanked in the OP. Additionally, you are free to copy any and all of my work; the only thing I request is that you not ask for donations as well (though I can't really enforce this lol). Thank you.

You may notice the feature list is a little bare. I wanted to get a nice solid base formed first then add features in as requested. Please read the thread before requesting a feature; if it is already present, just press thanks.
In theory, this should work on P as I have merged the source in. I have only tested on Oreo though.

Awesome! Thank you Nathan...

Add KCAL Color Control and I'm in. All I've wanted for so long is a stock like stable kernel with KCAL so I can tweak the display!
I ran your flash kernel the short time it was available for my old Nexus 6, happy to see this kernel here.

Thank you for bringing this to marlin!!

Was looking at your taimen post and was thinking to myself I wish we had this on sailfish/Marlin. Can you add schedutil?

I tried another kernel on Android P preview 2 and had some problems. You noted that this kernel includes the source links for preview 2. The other I think only had preview 1. Would there be a difference?

Yes although I don't know how much offhand.

@nathanchance I haven't had a change to flash this yet, I really enjoyed this from my 6P days. Can you tell me if HBM and backlight dimmer are available? If not, could I request them? Any wakelock blocks available? Possibly fingerprint scanner boost--NSFW Kernel has this.
Thanks, I was really missing Flash Kernel

I'll add HBM, backlight dimmer, and wakelock blocking. I'll take a look at fingerprint scanner boosting; however, the few implementations I have seen floating around lately seem like they don't work well.

Something occurred to me, the stock power HAL on this device doesn't support schedutil. Custom ROMs can add support easily so I'll still add it but I won't set it as default.

Running the Beta right now. So far no issues. Thanks for adding Kcal! I wanted to ask about the wq_power_savings option. What the heck does that do?

Here is a nice technical article from LWN: https://lwn.net/Articles/731052/
The tl;dr is these tasks get placed whenever is optimal rather than on a specific CPU core.

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?!
