KAKA Kernel information and change log

KAKA is now available for your Og!!! ​

What is KAKA?

KAKA stands for Kick A$$ Kernel Aosp version. It is an updated and modified version of the Mason G series kernel.

What has been done to make it KAKA?

Well this is the first release and also my first kernel so it is a work in progress. I have added 3 governors and enabled SWAP.

What is in KAKA's future?

I plan on adding more features such as two way call recording, adding more IO schedulers, and bringing this up to the latest Linux kernel version.

So what governors have been added?

I have created/modified 3 of my own while also including other available governors. Here is a list of all the governors.

conservative

intelllidemand

interactive

smartass

smartass2

superbad

and my new ones

deathbysoap

diablo

hipkat

This kernel will be a match for the rom. More options than most users will know what to do with. For now it is only available with CyanMobile or from source if you want to compile it yourself. There is also plans for ICS and JB versions some time in the future.

So what are deathbysoap, diablo, and hipkat?

Well they are my tribute to 3 of our great XDA members and modified versions of existing governors. I have chosen each governor to reflect (somewhat) each member and then modified each one to make them better.

Death by Soap - is a modified version of intellidemand

Diablo - is a modified version of SmartAss2

HipKat - is a modified version of Conservative

Each one has been tweaked to give better performance and battery life. Specifics of the modifications will be provided later.

What I/O Schedulers will be available?
