You'll want this, it fixes the Wi-Fi crash and dead lock.

^ good work!

What counts as a 'stock' ROM? Would Infusion be OK?

[Dazzozo]

Something that is derived from stock. So yes, Infusion counts.

Awesome, thanks. I'll give this a go then, after I flash B05.

Wow this kernel is something! First thing I noticed, the nice quicker response, and the extra whapping amazing 5 score in antutu benchmark. As well as deadline IO.

What I'd really want to see in the next update/s: more than 2 fingers on the screen.

Not possible , apparently it's a hardware limitation .

Cheers Daz, will give it a go for the next kernel.

Works well the screen is slightly more responsive to touch making for a more enjoyable experience, fantastic job

looks good! suggestion - put [KERNEL] in the thread title (it helps people notice it)

Cheers, looks like a mod has done that for me, I don't remember putting it in!

Yep daz was correct. Although not all things broke. From what I could see the wifi became broken but the phone booted about 50% faster and touch was more responsive

Faster boot will be because I am using gzip compression instead of LZO. Scratch that, LZO should be faster. I'm not sure why my kernel boots faster.

Yeah, people seem to use the term "kernel" and "boot.img" interchangeably.

Yeah... I suppose to be fully technically correct I should say Init.d support will be added to a script (probably init.rc from looking at google) in the ramdisk of the boot.img.

On a side note, has anyone forked Koush's anykernel updater for this phone? We all seem to be flashing the full boot.img, but it is a lot easier to just flash a new zimage into the boot.img. Maybe something else to look into for another time.

#19 update up now. Has init.d support (untested, please let me know if it works), zram support enabled, Wifi fix from Dazzozo and a little bit of governor tuning. Get it from the first post.

Init.d works fine, nice one.

Any advice on how to correctly enable zram? I tried the same commands as used on omegamoon kernel and everything is good until the 'swapon /dev/block/zram0' command where I get the error
'swapon: /dev/block/zram0: Function not implemented'.

[PaulMilbank]

interesting, I just enabled it in the defconfig and it worked with my previous kernel. Will look into it and see. I think Omegamoon updated the code to match 3.4 kernel, so there may be something in there that has changed.

[krishang3]

Testing #19 since I use init.d scripts

[bryfly]

Currently using Geno Kernel, going to give this one a go do I need to do any wipes first.....

[b4da55]

Why anyone would use any other kernel now wifi fixed. Maybe put that in title

Good work:D

[fraska]

You will be fine to flash this over #16.
