Firts build
This build have excellent changes for the battery life and performance good, because this Kernel have fine features, as more governors and the using of different Toolchain in this case (GCC 5.2), @squid2 tested the Kernel and it is working perfectly, I hope that my work like to you.
Cheers.
Flashing, Thanks a lot

Yes, I found that issue, but in the proxim release I will try fix it, thanks for you report. Cheers.
Would it be possible to add the smartmax_eps powersave governor from the nexus4 taurus kernel? So far everything is running fine here, thank you
Can I use this Kernel in based CM13 ROM's like (RR, Temasek, CrDroid) or CM13 only?

This Kernel work on any ROM MarshMallow 6.0.x
One more question @TechnoAnder, I'm very noob in this topic... I'm downloading the Temasek's CM13 ROM to test it, can I flash the Kernel right after flash the ROM + Gapps or just after the ROM is totally configured (boot + optimizing apps)?
Sorry my English and thanks for the help.

Just you must install the ROM and GApps, reboot normally and when you set all reboot into TWRP and flash the Kernel.

Use squids kernel from r13 on. This one doesnt have the necessary changes. Squid took the moto g kernel sources to make it compatible with stock. or wait until they are merged here

INTRODUCTION
I don't want to disguise the work of any original DEVs. This is my 1st thread if anything goes wrong plz correct me.
I created this thread just to share my personal builds and my intention is only 'share' not to 'kang' the work of Original Devs. I respect all of them.
Kernel
I don't have broadband connection at home so unable upload sources to github and compiled this kernel on my home desktop PC from manually downloaded LineageOS smdk4412 kernel sources and applied patches of commits by many devs(Gustavo_s, arnab, andip71, etc.) to it.
Kernel Adiutor (GT-I9100)
I have ported most of the kernel feature controls from Synapse to Kernel Adiutor (GT-I9100) and modified Package Name & App Name of the original Kernel Adiutor by Grarak to avoid conflicts ONLY.
- Package Name : com.grarak.kerneladiutor -> com.grarak.kerneladiutorsgs2
- App Name : Kernel Adiutor -> Kernel Adiutor (GT-I9100)
KERNEL INFO

Good to see customisable kernel for Android N for our device... Good luck... I'm still on MM... But will want to try once I'll upgrade to Nought.... Hope Devs around will help you improve your build...
@Skyline
I know it's a bit early for an request. [emoji6] But can you build a "SELinux permissive" version? [emoji41] I want install SuperSU to use FolderMount.

Dude, let me know if you're successfully mounting folder (especially between internal & external storage)..
As i've tried anything i have to alternate internal storage to external storage on Nougat.. i've nearly give up as "Link2sd" app also won't work..
I'm sorry for a bit OT..

I'm in AICP 12.1 build 7 Feb, the kernel works great, and the phone get to deepsleep as normal, maybe a problem of the build you're using...
Can someone post the best CPU and Governor settings for this kernel in the Adiutor for flawless running with bigger apps - always on 1200 MHz - is somebody working permanent with 1200 MHz, what about battery drain?

I don't think always running on 1200MHz will be good, think about cpu and battery temperature our device already have heating problems though. If you want you can try pegasusqplus I felt bit smoother with this one
UPDATE: From next build kernel will also support cm13
An other experience with the crDroid ROM @GreekDragon (latest build 01/26) . It runs good, flawless and smooth with the following settings:
CPU: min. 1000 MHz, max. 1200 MHz
Governor: pegasusqplus
I/O Scheduler: noop
Read-Ahead: 1280 kB
But: I have no more deepsleep and a little swap, see the following screenshots. The deepsleep mode in this ROM also doesn't work with the integrated power management, switched on "performance".
Thanks
Did you ever think continue @Saber 's Dorimanx N for our old phone, I think it can be amazing.
Saber: If there's anyone who would like to pickup from where I have left, my kernel source will always be available on github.
@Skyline
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ves/kernel-dorimanx-lp-5-x-x-t3145879/page137
Here is a live test with AICP 12.1 build 02/07 - the deepsleep mode works perfect. CPU on both cores with 1200 MHz, no significant heat development - core 1 turns off if not in use. I've played with the I/O and came up for the most smooth run and the fastest response to the "deadline" setting - see screenshots.
Would you adjust the kernel to crDroid too (see above)? It's a wonderful Nougat ROM on Lineage base - I mean the deepsleep issues may be fixed by @GreekDragon.
A kernel made for the balance between performance and battery.

Hi all,
I decided to share my personal custom kernel with all of you. The main reason i started developing this kernel is to balance performance / battery and also add features.
I believe i have included most of the usually requested features. If your feature is not included you can ask for it and i will try to include it as long as you don't ask for ETA's. I am a student and i do this on my spare time.
This kernel is based on LineageOS 15.1 sources for bullhead and has been upstreamed to version 3.10.108.
I also have a 3.10.73 version which obviously is not upstreamed but in my opinion has better battery life. Features remain the same between those two versions.
So let's jump the interesting part!
Sphinx Kernel Features

Built with -O2 optimizations

Introduction
Ahoy everyone,
I decided to share my personal custom kernel with all of you. The main reason i started developing this kernel is to balance performance / battery / security and also add features.
I believe i have included most of the usually requested features. If your feature is not included you can ask for it and i will try to include it as long as you don't ask for ETA's. I am a student and i do this on my spare time.
This kernel is based on LineageOS 16.0 sources for bullhead and has been upstreamed to version 3.10.108.
Moreover, it is compiled with GNU GCC Toolchain which is based on latest gnu.org changes and patched with AOSP and Linaro Android patches for optimal performance/battery.
So let's jump to the interesting part!

Notes
I bear absolutely no responsibility. If you brick your device. If you are not sure what a kernel is, how to flash it or how to restore your phone in case something goes wrong then do NOT proceed.
Morever, you should flash this kernel only over the stock kernel that came with your Rom.

Hahaha yeah guys sorry. I submitted it once but it took hours loading and it got submitted 3 times. Since then i deleted the other 2 but they still show up. Hopefully one moderator will fix this!
I'm excited to try this kernel, thanks a lot for the hard work ?

Since its my first kernel i am currently waiting for androidfilehost to grant me developer access. If this does not happen the next few hours i will upload the files manually.
Do you know that lowering CPU frequencies on this device is useless as it's running on the same voltage.

Yes i do know it. But some users still request it so who am i to disagree? ? Its a harmless feature that brings joy to some users
Flashing this kernel it show as Zestkernel. May you send a screenshot ? To be sure.

That is impossible...are you sure you flashed the correct zip? I have not even cherry picked a single commit from Zest Kernel

It's based on LineageOS kernel, right? I flash it on AOSiP but it don't want to flash.

Is there an option to change the thermal throttling temperature for the CPU with your kernel?

Of course, with any kernel manager app if rooted.

Well, first I forgot to flash supersu together and my device automatically got encrypted which Im not fan of.
I like the idea having Adreno Idler, almost forgot about the feature, lol.
I think you could add cpu workque feature, just suggestion.
So far, it acts a bit laggy but its still too early to say and it could be from thermal which I keep at 42 and its hot today where I am now but will see later.. i will run this kernel for some days to see. Thanks
