About

franco.Kernel is a very optimized kernel for 2.2 and 2.3 (non-official) roms. The philosophy is to push the phone's performance as hard as it can, while maintaining extra battery power. Its popularity speaks for itself.

Features & Changelog

franco.Kernel.v19.4:

[b]04 - September - 2011 - v19.4[/b]
[list]
[*] Patched 2.6.32.46
[*] ZRAM is gone. Causes too much confusion for the users and we actually don't need any swap
[*] Big patchlist from ck kolivas to remove anything related to swap and to increase responsiveness of the system overall
[*] Add SmartassV2
[*] Autogroup patch for the CFS version to increase multi-tasking responsiveness
[*] ipv6 enabled again
[*] Vsync on again by popular demand
[/list]

[b]22 - August - 2011 - v19.3[/b]
[list]
[*] Updated to 2.6.32.45 from upstream
[*] Various .config changes researched by [B]fserve[/B]
[*] Changed a lot of network options. Now network usage (internet) should be a LOT faster and consume less battery
[/list]

[b]13 - August - 2011 - v19.2[/b]
[list]
[*] Screen hang bug fixed - ****ing newer compiler was faulty
[*] Few tweaks here and there
[*] Some reverts to make the kernel more stable
[*] ext3 is enabled again
[*] Maybe one or two things that I might be forgetting
[/list]

[b]10 - August - 2011 - v19.1[/b]
[list]
[*] Updated to 2.6.32.44 from upstream
[*] Fixed headset bug
[*] The screen hang should be fixed
[*] Very small CFS tweak
[/list]

[b]6 - August - 2011 - v19[/b]
[list]
[*] TinyRCU is again the default. I think the RCU boost thingy that I backported was the cause for some battery drain.
[*] Good touchscreen drivers which should have the CPU **** fixed and the axis inversion workaround
[*] Scary and Minmax governors added
[*] Updated to the latest 2.6.32.43 from the upstream
[/list]

[b]2 - July - 2011 - v18.1[/b]
[list]
[*] I don't remember what I did in this release but the BIG things are:
[*] RCU BOOST and TinyPreempt RCU backported from 2.6.35. Big big boost from this one
[*] Touchscreen drivers ported from the 2.6.35.10 official LG kernel
[/list]

[*] Touchscreen driver updated
[*] KGSL: force 2D context switch
[*] block: don't access jiffies when initializing io_context
[*] Compile with -03 for extra performance
[*] Ondemand a little tweaked
[*] BFS: allow non priviledged tasks to bounch between SCHED_BATCH and SCHED_NORMAL
[*] BFS: fix dma compability
[*] Memcopy & memmove assembly code added
[*] lib: string.c updated to use the new memcopy and memmove fast assembly code
[*] VR I/O scheduler added and made default
[*] lowmemorykiller backported from 2.6.35

[*] And a loooooooot of more small patches, fixes, improvements, tweaks, optimizations...whatever you want to call it and I don't wanna spent the rest of the night stating every small change
[*] Oh yes I updated the kernel version to v18, this is actually the best and most important change of them all :)

Take note of this, I don't care nor will pay attention if you say you're having battery drain if: you flashed the kernel sooner than 24hours of your complain post, if you didn't wipe your cache partition before or after flashing it, or if you didn't wipe your battery stats. If any of these three conditions are met at the time of your posting I will simply ignore it.
