Very nice, H918 here willing to donate my phone for testing when the time comes! ???

Odd. The xda system says i was mentioned so i came here. Anyway i wouldnt put in google assistant if i were anybody at this point. Full google assistant is being released for all android 6 and 7 devices this week. Any mods could cause issues with other features. http://www.androidauthority.com/google-assistant-nougat-marshmallow-752551/

Thank you so much for this! But something I've noticed, it's not letting me clock my cpu to what I set it for. It's not sticking, it's staying at 729 mhz occasionally going to 1029mhz.
Oh! Requests. Blu_active governor and maybe some overclocking profiles?
Other than that can't wait to test this rom out!
Edit: the CPU frequency seems to have a 'mind of its own' not sticking to one set setting.

Strange.. What app are you using to tweak the kernel? And blu_active was one i was already looking to add, you might get it pretty quick

Kernel auditor - mod, and rom toolbox pro, just to check and see if it was sticking or not. But ironically enough, after I comment that, it starts to stick. I'll let you know if anything changes. Hopefully it won't.
And awesome! I've actually gotten pretty good battery/performance with blu_active. I think I saw Tilde mention that bioshock was also a good one that worked well with the V20 as well. Something to look into.

Thank you for bringing another great kernel. But I'm just trying to do my part! Since I have no technical experience/knowledge when it comes to modifying a kernel or anything in that nature. But you're welcome.
I'll be more than willing to test out different governors and such if you want to explore and experiment some. I don't mind testing. Because I do know different algorithms from different governors work better/worse on different phones.
I'm just psyched there's another kernel that supports kcal. Keep up the good work!

if the phone is warm the cpu numbers will go up and down if trying to set the max cpu.
its done it on all kernels ive tried

Would I be better to wipe system and reflash our specific roms without google assistant installed? I feel that just having it would cause issues.

@poixninja Wow! Great additions to the kernel! Hopefully you and BackCheck can make a perfect kernel for the Verizon varient Thank you!

Yes that should be fine. The mods mainly work from the buildprop. If those are reversed your assistant will go away. Until the update released it

Faux kernel

I just wanted to start a thread here so not to clog beans ROM thread.. We have another kernel for our Verizon TW Roms... I'm sure we will get an official thread from the developer eventually.. So far I ran version 2..and this morning I flashed V3..running smoothly so far and latest has Boeffla support..
Here's the directory

Noted 2x~4 beta
Faux posted on twitter that his thread here was getting flamed too much so he took it down. Way to go XDA community. Great kernel though, have been using it for a couple days now and couldn't be happier.

Wow really... I didn't see the original thread.. I don't have Twitter.. It's definitely running smoothly.. I've run his kernels on my Nexus.. We like options.. I hope peeps respect and if not for you move along... That's what is great about having choices.. Did you change any of the settings?

Running great here. Seems to fix some of the little stutters tw has.

003 is out in case you guys didn't see it. It fixes the OC bumping above the max level. It's running great for me so far. Ondemand + intelliplug works like a charm.

So what settings do you recommend...I searched the threads but most of the information pertains to Nexus devices
I'm trying ondemand with intell plug.. I'm using trickster mod currently but will be getting his app to support..

Just flashed the 03 note 2 kernel...and my phone is running a lot smoother. downloaded the app to support this kernel...keep up the great work...tracking down info on this kernel has been well worth it!!
Gonna have to try this when I get home, loved his work on the G2X, the only kernel my phone played nice with.

Big supporter of Faux. Bought the app waaayyy back when it was released, even before the Note 2 was supported and been using the kernel on all my phones every since my first Android (and his too I believe), the MyTouch4g. One of my favorite phones ever btw.
Anyway, stories aside, I finally got this thing to mount an sd card on boot. Had to go back to my 32gb san disk. Guess I'll drop out my 64gb since I swear by Faux's kernels. Every thing is smooth as butter so far. Running ondemand and gonna let this baby settle and see how long the battery can last. I think I saw on Twitter someone said they got 7 hrs screen on time.
Btw, faux... does this support you faux sound yet? If not, will be putting in support for it eventually?
It supports boeffla sound which is pretty good. Bought the all too myself. Best way to donate.

Any productions by me are not, and will never be donation ware. However, I have put many hours into the development of this kernel, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Your generosity - if you feel like showing it - is deeply appreciated. I do how ever ask that you hit the thanks button.

Go ahead n try it. There's going to be tearing. The tearing is due to the GPU difference with jss n jwr. Tux is using dvhexer cm10.2 as a base for beanstalk. With this assumption there using jwr
looking at dvhexers source cm10.2 is jwr. take aloof for your self

I don't mean to offend you or correct you, but cm10.2 is using the 4.3r2.1 branch which is jss. I've compiled it and it states its jss at the start of the build. It also says cm10.2 is jss in the article you have linked in the 2nd post.

[ROM] [JEWEL] [AOSP] [4.3] [cfX-Toolchain 4.8.y+] codefireXperiment Official Nightly

Introducing codefireXperiment for your device! This OP is going to stay slim and bloat free, just like codefireXperiment. No marketing buzzwords either. We take such confidence in the speed and performance of this distribution, we challenge you to find a faster and more stable one!
Warning: we only support anykernel methods of custom kernel installation.
Here's a bit of info you may want on this project for how we do things differently:
CLICK HERE to find out more about the new team working on this project since our TeamEOS merger.
No features you don't need which slow the device down, or put your data at risk of being stolen. If you want to give it away, it should be your decision.
A fast and clean install with no UX decisions made for you. You make the ROM whatever you would like.
A team constantly exploring totally new feature sets and optimizations geared toward you, the user
We utilize a plethora of optimizations in a build system unlike any other:
Each build has a toolchain built for your device at the time of build. No more generic toolchain android builds.
Consistently updated upstream toolchain module source with our custom backports, fixes, and optimizations applied in a patch at build time.
Fully built utilizing Link Time Optimization (another custom ROM first). Feel free to google this one a bit to get an idea of the performance gain.
Many repositories have code fixes, cleanups, and many minor optimizations which are too generous to even speak of here.
Optimizations are toggled on and off based on device for the best experience we can acheive for your device without sacrificing any stability
Many Qcom optimizations and AOSP master (upstream) optimizations and fixes using device specifications to determine usage.
Fully built utilizing strict aliasing and isognu++11 mode.
Full "-O3" build. To those who don't know, this is the highest "optimization level" available in gcc that sets many other flags.
Important Links:
Download Nightlies - We have a very in depth review system, so these should be considered stable.
Download Weeklies - These are built once a week on Monday.

Interactive and Rolling Changelog

Instructions:
**This uses the 3.4 cm kernel tweaked for gcc-4.8 builds and as such,
follows all the same requirements as CM-10.2. NEWEST FIRMWARE/HBOOT are required. **
In the same recovery session, flash the following:
Flash rom
Flash GApps
Flash SuperSU zip
Reboot

Thanks to the CM team for all thier work on this family of devices, especiallly h8rift for his work on evita for all of us to enjoy.
Also thanks to my beta testers for experimenting with me.
DISCLAIMER: I will not be held responsible for any damages caused to your device by flashing this ROM. Your warranty is now void.
By proceeding you accept the risks involved with flashing ROMS. While I test everything on my own device, I cannot garauntee yours will not explode into kittens and rainbows.
KNOWN ISSUES:
ROOT ACCESS : On-going disscusion within the team but as of right now root is not available to userspace. Root currently works over adb only. Flash the superSU.zip and carry on if you need root access for apps like TiBu or root file explorers. Otherwise you really don't need it
BOOT ANIMATION : i'ts just full of struggle, it's an old animation made for smaller screens. It freezes and goes blank screen on first boot. Don't be alarmed, it'll be OK. New custom boot ani is being designed now by a fellow team member
BROWSER : Ocassional FC on embedded browser streaming video. You tube and links that open a video player are fine, just embedded video.
ROM is still under construction so i'm sure more will surface but this should be more than ready to be a daily driver.
mine too
Sounds sweet man. Another aosp ROM to check out.
Thanks for sharing man

Edit: ran installer, chose non-cm option and installer failed.
Edit2: ran it again, cm option and installer shows errors still but new bootani works on reboot.

I do remember we had to work out some kinks. I'll check my dates on the builds and see if I uploaded the correct version for the Aroma installer.
Sorry, but what features in this Rom?

Features? Its more of concept than anything. Most ROM came from CMs base or AOKP's base and modify/customize into something else. This ROM is based/kept current directly off of googles AOSP master branch. There are some things pulled from CM/aokp for hardware compatibility and what not but the soul of the ROM is strict AOSP. After that its tweaked and optimized to make it as smooth, fast, and efficient as possible.
Simply put this is closest thing to pure AOSP brought to other devices besides the Nexus line.
You won't find all the built in mods and custom colors and what not. This is clean simple fast AOSP. As vanilla as possible.

Hardware keys are set up exactly the way I like them right from the jump. And this is actually the most stable 4.3 ROM that has been on my phone. All the others just kept crashing.

This ROM is a lean mean STABLE machine. Good to see you got this up bro. Ran that beta for a couple days and couldn't break it, great work by you and team.

[KERNEL] a.k.a. Dr. West's Re-Animated Kernel

Dr. Herbert West's Re-Animated Franco Kernel Staging branch Kernel

The short story ...
This is, for all intents and purposes, Franco Kernel. However, I have worked to cherry-pick commits
from the nightlies branch and apply them to the staging branch. I feel some great commits were lost
in the rebase and since I can't find the specific commits that make it great, I decided to just
carry on, adding commits from the nightlies branch to staging.
The long story ...
On March 19, 2014 Francisco Franco decided to rebase his kernel which is currently the nightlies
branch. To my understanding the reason was that users were complaining of various bugs, glitches,
etc. He had applied many CAF commits and was unable to determine where things were going wrong.
He was faced with a decision, find the problem or rebase? He chose to rebase. Since then, the
kernel has continued to get better and better!
"Then why are you using the staging branch?" you might be asking. Well, I was never plagued by
the problems other complained about and was really happy with r35. In fact, there is a little
nugget of gold with great value to me, hiding away in this branch! Let me explain.
On r35, when playing audio through PowerAmp, the CPU stays steady at 300mhz. Also, the way the
kernel selects which speed to run at seems to be more consistent. Apps, such as audio/video players,
seem to maintain a steady speed. Since r36 this has not been the case, audio/media players will
ramp up to 1GHz+ for no apparent reason. I was able to isolate one commit that as been applied to
the nightlies branch but the ramping up still continues.
This brings me to the nugget of gold! I have been able to determine there are about 1100 commits in
the staging branch that have not made it into the nightlies branch. The odds of finding the one or
two commits that reduce the ramping up are pretty slim. Believe me, I have tried.
Therefore, I have decided to re-animate the staging branch and work to bring commits from nightlies.
What is different?
The biggest difference is it is based on the "staging" branch
I've added 96Mhz, 192Mhz and 249Mhz CPU speeds.
Compiled with Linaro 4.8 (2014.03)
There will be no test builds, only releases that coincide with Franco Kernel.
The version will have a trailing a, b, c, etc. Each letter represents a build that has had past commits merged within that release. For example, the current version is r55a. Presently, there are about 120 commits from nightlies that I have to go through. If I merge some old commits before r56, the kernel will be released as r55b, r55c, etc.
What is the same?
many hundreds of commmits from the “nightlies” branch
initramfs files
Default FKU settings (see Notes)
Notes...
1. The FKU settings I change on my device are as follows... updated 06/30/2014
1a. If you are using a build named Re-animator-t** I suggest only changing the Minimum Frequency to 96000 and let me know how battery life is.
Minimum CPU frequency 96MHz
go_highspeed_load 95
highspeed_freq 192000
input_boost_freq 1036800
sync_freq 96000
target_loads 85 96000:90 192000:95 300000:98 600000:99
up_threshold_any_cpu_freq 300000
cpufreq_unplug_limit 1800000​
2. For a long time I used PowerAmp, however I have recently switched to Rocket Music Player. Which you use is up to you but I believe RMP has a slightly less demanding UI.
3. At one point I suggested using Powersave governor to maximize battery. However, I think it does more harm than good, and has been removed.
4. I accept "Thanks" as payment.
5. Any monetary donations should be sent to Francisco Franco.

Cool! I'll keep watching this thread.
Good to see developers actually looking at the code and explaining things to us users.
Keep up, I'm gonna try this.
This is AOSP kernel right?
Thanks

It literally just came out, battery is probably similar to Franco's, and yes it's an AOSP kernel...

As I said in the OP, for all intents and purposes, this is Francisco Franco's Kernel. The difference is that it is not rebased. This is the staging branch of his git with most commits from his nightlies branch applied to it.

It will definitely get better battery life in some situations, specifically audio, which is what I use my device mainly for. For example, last night, on airplane mode, min cpu at 96mhz and governor set to powersave, I lost only 13% battery after 7.5 hrs of audio playback.
and does this work on mahdi rom ?

If a rom works with Franco's Kernel, then it should most likely work with this one.

i know, thats what i dont wanna use/download.. but did anyways
i like to do all my flashing in recovery all at one go.. i dont like the thought of, "downloading/updating a new rom via recovery, boot up, then have to use/download flashify just to 'finish' the procedure".. Lazy? maybe.. but doing everything all at once is better, and better for my ocd.. dont like back tracking things if that makes any sense ha -- makes sense in my head :angel:
EDIT: LOL :doh: I just downloaded franco kernel .zip (since thats where it come from) and just replaced his boot img with Dr. West's (OP's) img... Flashed it via recovery, and booted up fine :good:

Ah, fantastic! -- Thanks a lot :highfive:
Been using it for a solid few hours now and it's running great!
I'm getting issues though when I restore your preferences xml in FKU. It restores and reboots me to fastboot mode no matter what I do. I've rebooted multiple times to no avail and I've even started over by reflashing my ROM, then the kernel, then re-imported the settings again and the same thing. Any reason that might happen? I've wiped all previous settings in FKU previous to doing that. Not a big deal, just trying to get some good new settings to try from someone who knows what these numbers mean.

To use the settings xml, you'll need to be rooted. Copy the file to /data/data/com.franco.kernel/shared_prefs/ then make sure the permissions are 0660.
NOTE!! I've removed the link to the xml. I realized I had also modified the voltages. I'm so sorry. See the OP for the changes you need to make. Again, really sorry about that.

No problem at all, I just thought I was doing something wrong. Thanks, very much appreciated for the update!
Overnight, I lost a single percent of battery. I've got 'keep wifi-on during sleep' set to never, which I'm sure helps, but even still I can't recall a time recently where my battery did so well overnight!

Looks like it's just getting started...the OP is rather threadbare, and the links, as you've noted, resolve to OptiPop.
I assume things will be completed in short order.
Looking forward to this as well.

Here is the beta build. Don't freak out on the name, this was before we changed it. I will have my build up shortly
EDIT: We need to clean up our source a little bit, we will do that first and release a newer build later today.

Not certain, but one would assume once it's uploaded and the original post is edited, those questions will be answered.

As you know, recently optipop has been buggy. This is basically a slimmed down ROM that will be more stable and I will have a bit more control over what goes into it.
The idea here is to optimize, retain stability and add only useful features, it seems optipop is now being filled with every feature that exists.

I'll give it a run when the new one is posted, it's always bugged me when features have been added to ROMs simply to have another feature. Often less truly is more. Bizarre how certain ROMs get so bloated and over worked that they become unstable, slow and unreliable yet has everything in the kitchen tossed in for good measure.

Agree, I look for only the basics....well basic for me.
-nav bar stuff
-volume button controls
-LED notifications
-layers
-dt2w
I either stay with Elemental or a stock kernel if it has volume controls.
