I was wondering why there is no kernel developement for this great phone. It could still use some tweaks
+1
Anyone has the time/skill to implement kernel features as cpu/gpu speeds + alt gouvernors ?
The battery could also be faster charged in theory as its softwarelocked in kernel.
If anyone feels interested just bump this thread
+1. RAM management, overclocking, and charging times could be tuned. That would be awesome.
I also hope someone can make a custom kernel for us

The charging rate is not softwarelocked...The P9 lite does not have the required hardware to support fast charging or to even increase the charging rate.
It has never been tested if we unlock the rate in kernel it will charge faster. So you cant know for sure

Here I found some voltage regulator driver for linux 3.18, for hi655x . Is that also for our hi655 hi6250?
https://android.googlesource.com/ke...aro-3.18/drivers/regulator/hi655x-regulator.c
Would be a nice one to implement. I don't know where to start but this seems like a vital piece of code.
How hard would it be to patch this Hikey Linaro kernel to support the 6250 completely, or would it already?
+1
The Problem is we only have the kernel source you provided @twicejr, today i tried to merge it with Linux 4.9 kernel but it cannot be done. And with the upcomming Release of Android 7.0 its unlikely anyone will build a 3.1x kernel. B336 already has 4.1 but still lags the Kernel Source.
We have to wait -.-

Hello Everyone,
I see there are over 5000 downloads for G3Mod Kernel, but very few people are posting feedback...I believe no one else is getting any problems
OK, so this thread is for everyone who dont have that many posts for posting in development section...
POST YOUR FEEDBACK, PROBLEMS, REVIEWS, ETC. over here
DONT EXPECT QUICK REPLIES IN THIS THREAD
EVEN IF YOU HAVE SEEN YOUR SAME PROBLEM REPORTED, THEN ALSO REPORT IT HERE
IT WILL HELP ME TO KEEP THE KERNEL STABLE AND BETTER
Well firstly, thank you dharam for making this excellent kernel. But ofcourse everyone knows the sound click bug, if that gets solved this will be the best kernel I've used so far.
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA App
Awesome Work !
Thank you! for providing such an awesome kernel
My personal favorite Is g3Mod 1.3.1 Performance Max=Min=950Mhz
No batter drain problem.
I got freeze problems with OC over 1000mhz
190MHz - 950MHz
I just flashed g3mod 190MHz - 950MHz to DDJ2 Original FW. Its working fine without any problem. And used set cpu to set to 950MHz. But i do not fee much different in performance. how i can test this?

Hello, i'm new on xda forum .
Thanx for your Kernel, i think you can improve it by looking about this Kernel Fully Optimised and take some idea !
...forum.samdroid.net/f53/development-kernel-horse-power-4973/
His Github : ...github.com/spica234/I5700-kernel-2.6.32.9
I think it can be easy to port some feature from i5700 to our i580X
well the overclock thing works fine.
1st on installing the kernel it shows 1366MHz of overclock in setcpu.
but upon restarting it shows 930MHz. is is in my case only or what?

Just tried G3Mod 1.3.3 lite, it's the best experience ever. Seems it's very economy since it did not drain my battery too fast and slower than before. Its performance is great though no overclocking. Everything just go fine, response quickly and it does not halt anymore.
From my Kyrillos v6.1 non-oc i5801
is the cracking sound bug fixed in the v1.3.3 Ultimate kernel? please reply cause it's a very annoying problem!

Hey Dharam,
Great effort on sharing your knowledge, (referring to your Tutorial on Kernel dev).
I have one doubt on Sourcery tool chain, in their webpage it says the tool chain cannot be used for compiling Linux kernels, why is that? and you are using it for kernel building? Pls refer to the datasheet on their page at codesourcery.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/[email protected]=datasheet

They are the developers of the toolchain and there must be some reason that they have put that warning, not to use it for Linux Kernels. But it is working in our case for building kernels.
May be the code generated by the compiler is not optimised enough to be used for kernels or there would some performance related issues.
Are there any alternative compilers which we can use? May be it would improve our phone's kernel performance? Just a thought.

I tried to compile overclocked kernel from stock. compiled error free... but i cant seem to overclock the device moreover it seems clock rate suddenly drops causing lag
hmmm.... Seems there is power issue i would have to check voltage profile of nexus 5. anyone know of a good overclocking kernel for nexus 5?
is there any way to govern voltage dynamically instead of compiling every time i make a small change?

doesnt matter seems that we have a locked bootloader and i was thrown back to stock kernal
I see a lot of people are quick to flash AK, Franco, Tyr, etc before they even give the kernel that comes with the ROM a try.
From my personal experience, the kernel that comes with a ROM is always faster & snappier than aftermarket kernels (no overclocking).
Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but the kernel that comes with the ROM is optimized to perform best with the ROM. Optimization is the main reason why Android is one step behind of iPhones. I don't know about you guys, but I want my phone to be fully optimized which is why I stick with the stock kernel most of the time.
I guess I'm also one of these people who are quick to flash a aftermarket kernel.
But I think the aftermarket ones are the more optimized ones.
Anyway I never had problems with the stock kernels.
I love the extra work devs like Franco and AK do. Sometimes I get some reboots with Franco but overall its a good experience. I just have some Franco loyalty from when I used his kernel on nexus 4 lol best kernel ive ever used. Not sure if I'd say the same about his one plus kernel but if there's any issues I'd blame cm not him

I used to be the same way on my older android devices.
It seems like now flashing a kernel is no longer need to improve performance (sorta)

I definitely have to try that out. I usually always skip pass it lol..
I use franco kernel because I get better battery with his kernel (compared to stock), and it's always up-to-date with most of the patches, while with stock you'll have to wait until the next OTA to get some patches.

Purchased Franco Kernel Updater and if I didn't use a custom kernel (or Franco Kernel) then I spent money on something I'm no longer using.
Also because I'm not a fan of mpdecision.

Same here switching between AK and Franco.
Both are a good choice.
But as mentioned before, the hardware of our phone is :good: so no need to flash a aftermarket kernel to gain more performance.

Anything other than mpdecision, I personally prefer Franco's hotplug algorithm which is his own implementation of powering on/off cores.
Mpdecision is Qualcomm's implementation of powering on/off cores.
I personally am not a fan of Intelliplug,
3 - Don't even bring intelliplug on this. With all due respect to faux, that driver is a butchered solution to control the cores. The code is a mess and, in my opinion, just doesn't make any sense. I've worked on my Hotplug driver for years and it works as simple as need be, with appropriate userspace tunables for users to tinker with.

http://www.reddit.com/r/nexus4/related/158t1i/custom_kernels_a_guide_on_what_you_need_to_know/ has a great reading on mpdecision and why it is not good in their opinion.
--mpdecision--
All Qualcomm based phones have Qualcomm prorprietary userspace binary called "mpdecision" aka m(ake)p(oor)decision. Instead of letting the kernel itself to decide what frequencies and how many cores to run, this "mpdecsion" binary polls the kernel run queue statistics and decides for the whole system the "optimal" frequency and the "optimal" number of cores to use. The concept is fine, except the decision making is done in userspace and it's 100% closed source so there's no way to tweak it and there's a latency (because all userspace binaries needs to "poll" the kernel for the latest information which is slightly delayed). - faux123
ELI5: mpdecision is a proprietary Qualcomm daemon that makes calls to the SoC (the entire chip your phone uses) to manage the cores. The OS (PowerHAL) makes a request to mpdecision and then mpdecision makes a request to the first two cores to ramp them up. - _motley

I like to mess with my phone. Simply because I need a kernel fully optimised kernel for the device. Not to say that the developers aren't doing a good job, but in my case, a user sometimes knows better than the creator themselves.
Unless the custom kernels do not satisfy me, I'll revert back to stock.

This phone is fairly clean out of the box. About the only stuff worth freezing or deleting would be some of the google play apps if you don't use them. For example Google play books, news stand, or games.
this thread is meant for everyone thats making a kernel or ROM so you know what features that everyone wants
The things we need
ROOT duh
ALL-F2FS FS support
NTFS FS support
CPU Governors
GPU Governors
GPU overclocking
CPU overclocking
RAM overclocking if we can
Dual boot ROM/Kernels and 64bit Ubuntu
any more ideas?

PIE control
Most important one.. Stability. Needs to be stable, and have a few minor tweaks, it all depends on how the stock kernel is though.. HTC Stock kernels tend to be pretty sweet anyway and just need a few features added IMO.
Have been told that the CPU is way under clocked @2.3,GHz and could handle 3.00ghz easy! Note that this is a rumour, but if true wow!
Really looking forward to it now!
Um everything you listed is stuff that is the norm for custom kernels. Wonder if well see Franco or faux or flar here...im still really on the fence.

At the price probably only if the device is donated. I'm sure the size is off putting for them.
USB-OTG and USB-Audio support would be stellar (if not included as standard)

I would love to see the GPU and CPU overclocking as well as over/under volt for both for maximum tuning capability. The other things I would like to see though are RAM and bus overclocking access since with so many GPU cores if we get to overclocking we may need some more in those areas too so we can take full advantage of the higher core MHz

The main direction is to reverse the kernel code for the purpose of changing system settings
