You should probably not use Raw Kernel but [MENTION=799465]bauner[/MENTION]'s stable kernel until I release the new one :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] :
Hi GeekoDev.

Since when you not allowed to used this kernal? I'm using KitKat omni version. From my side, I'm not encounter same problem like them. If you said new version will update, I will wait. To change to bauner kernel, I guess I wait new update from you. As I told u, there no problem for me. Thank you for the information.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] nursoda:
I'm pretty sure GeekoDev's comment refers to Bauners LP ROM. Since you're on KK, you should be fine.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Icetea:
slow charging time....

since i use the raw kernel on my final omnirom (N7000) , charging battery is slower then previously! (>4h!) Why?

It is only possible to charge with the original cable and powersupply. If i use a normal usb-cable together with an usb-powerunit it is not powerfully enough to charge my battery in short time! It needs more than 7h from 10% up to 100%!!!

I have tried 3 new batterys from different manufactories.

will the development of this kernel be continued in the near future?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] osd_daedalus:
Have you tried another kernel?

The usb connector of n7000 is quite faulty and tends to oxidation...you could try to clean it with CRC spray and a little brush, or to replace it (but ensure it is same revision number and possibly original samsung or you could have issues with antenna)

i have tested CM11 ;SlimSaber ; ori. N7000 Rom and Omnirom final without RAW bevor. All changes with fullwipe using Philz-Kernel!

The RAW kernel ist the only one, that's charging to slow. I dont’ know why.

Hi [MENTION=5145944]GeeckoDev[/MENTION], so do you mean you will still update the kernel for CM 12.1 later? :p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] snow:
[MENTION=5145944]GeeckoDev[/MENTION] so the "Project Butter" for Exynos 4210 based devices is dead? I've saw JustArchi said Galaxy Mega 2 sources are not good for i9300 (I guess for n7000/i9100 too). Working HWComposer it's just a dream or maybe someday it will work? :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
I had plans to rebase to JB sources before [MENTION=799465]bauner[/MENTION] did, but for some reason my kernel never booted when I included the recovery. And there are other annoying issues, like choppy audio or telephony not working well.

I'm planning to rebase to latest i9305 4.4.4 sources. It seems to include interesting fixes that could help lollipop.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
Yeah there's no way to adapt the 3.4 kernel to run on the i9300, that would be too much work (and we don't have any kind of documentation). However I have been trying to backport the interesting bits to a stable kernel that works on our device. I want to do the rebase first.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] snow:
What about hardware composer used by JustArchi and arter97 and implemented for the first time in Nameless ROM by dhiru1602?

Maybe this is the only chance to get HWC working like i9300. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
It depends on fimc4x, which is a hardware unit not available in the 4210 chip. We have fimc3x which is much more limited. Maybe with some software workarounds it would be possible to make it work anyway (the idea would be to implement the 4x API on top of the 3x).

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Darthsternie:
Can't wait for it :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
I'm planning to release the first version this week-end. Features include:

- Compatible with CM12.1

- JB rebase for stability (same as Raw TW without speedmod patchset, not based on bauner's)

- GCC 5.2 compiled

- 59Hz panel overclock

- FPBug fix

- TRIM enabled

- Updated Wi-Fi driver from i9305 KK

- zswap/vnswap from i9305 KK (it's more efficient than zram)

I have more testing to do, but I had zero crashes so far and it's pretty smooth.

Here's a test version without zswap. Please try and report :good:

Edit: the preview works with NightOwl but will cause FCs if you go back to the stock kernel or when you'll flash the final version because I forgot to enable SELinux. DO NOT FLASH IT if you don't want to do a factory reset very soon.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] User_99:
Great news!

How about Stock Gallery bug?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] KalZakath:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:

Which ROM are you running this on [MENTION=5145944]GeeckoDev[/MENTION] ???
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
NightOwl 20151003
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] KalZakath:
So far no problems, rom even is responding quicker. Nice work, now i am waiting for releace with zswap support.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] KalZakath:
[MENTION=5145944]GeeckoDev[/MENTION] I don't know what you did there but i will find you and i will buy you a beer. After few hours of using i can say that there is no problem with redrawing launcher after using heavy aps anymore. Also everything is working a lot quicker now, f.e. html5 movies are opening in 1-2 sec, on stock kernel it was about 10-15 sec and calling screen is arriving faster. Great job.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
Good to hear. I put together a kernel with ROW iosched merged, zswap and undervolting that are missing from the test version. I must say it's even better now, zero launcher redraws so far, I actually enjoy using my phone haha. Pretty happy about that!

Next step is putting my hands in userspace and fix gralloc. I'm 99% sure it's the cause of tearing and stuttering we have. Our current version is derived from a broken ICS release and I think I can do something about that.

After that I'll look into merging bits from the mega2 kernel and have a whole new graphics stack. One day my friends. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] KalZakath:
OK, waiting for public release ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] nokiamodeln91:
Installed the kernel and all seems smooth.. I was using swap on sd before as chrome would not stand an image search for more than few minutes.. but using this with NO zram or swap. it looks alright.. chrome has not auto closed yet. looks promising. Hopefully with zswap it will be more memory friendly.. Thanks Geekodev

Edit... Mtp is not working.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] panamera2011:
Hi GeeckoDev, I'm testing war kernel r1 with resurrection 5.5.8 because it is a ROM that uses more system resources compared to NightOwl. It was a long time that I no used a cm12. I must say that this kernel, although preview, works really good. I installed many applications, and the system is always responsive. With Antutu in multitask i get very good performance.

For me is the best kernel to Lollipop.

Thanks[emoji4]

I tested War Kernel r1 with NightOwl 100315 yesterday and found some bugs.

After installation of the kernel MTP stopped working, HW Decoding with MX Player didn't work anymore and the Performance Profiles also didn't seem to work but besides that everything seemed to work
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] play_dead:
Wow, so excited to know that. Have been using the war r1 preview for a whole day and so far there's no issue. The phone is super smooth. I'm using RR 5.5.8. Can't wait for your official release...and thank you so much :p
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
MTP will be fixed in the first release. I think USB tethering isn't working either, can anyone confirm?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] KalZakath:
[MENTION=5145944]GeeckoDev[/MENTION] does new kernel will be compatible with nightowl 1030(todays release)?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] panamera2011:
USB tethering works on my win10 pro
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
It will be indeed. The preview is working with NightOwl but it needs a factory reset to go back to the stock kernel.

USB tethering works on my side now, damn you NetworkManager :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] KalZakath:
Hi [MENTION=5145944]GeeckoDev[/MENTION], there's a problem after updating nightowl on your kernel. After optimisation od apps there's a lot of fc's from process.media, gapps, messenger, filemanager and other apps, part of them is even not launching (FB, FB manager, gallery). One of users also told me that when he reverted to [MENTION=799465]bauner[/MENTION] 's kernel and flashed update situation was similar. Can you check it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] giogio1:
The solution for me was reverted Geeko's kernel (whitout any fc) set SELinux to enforce and than reflash the bauner' kernel default.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] bauner:
You should follow my way to prevent problems with apps or later updates

Because of the disabled SELinux in @GeeckoDev's war kernel r1 preview you can't go back to my kernel or update the rom to 20151030 (you will get many fc's and/or missing data in apps).

The only way to fix it is:

boot to recovery-flash back my kernel-reboot the recovery(important!)-factory reset-do a clean install of the rom +gapps again
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] panamera2011:
To avoid problems, the flash of the r1 war must be done immediately after a clean installation of your NightOwl rom

With SELinux disabled on r1 war It not recommended to go back on bauner kernel without a clean installation :)

Sorry about the inconvenience :/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] bauner:
Thx

I have also searched for a way to restore the selinux context but I did not find an easy way which would work for all possibilities

@GeeckoDev if you enable selinux in your next version also think about CONFIG_EXT4_FS_XATTR which is also disabled in the default q1 defconfig
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] KalZakath:
Any news about kernel compatible with nightowl 1030?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
Announcing War Kernel r1

This is a new kernel rebased on latest stock TW for 4210 devices (Raw Kernel was based on 4412). It is not based on [MENTION=799465]bauner[/MENTION]'s kernel sources either. This makes it a really stable kernel. I do not plan to merge anything that I don't understand or that don't produce any visible perf/energy gains.

Q: So, why changing the name to War Kernel ?

A: Because it's battle-tested :p

Changes over stock TW kernel :

- Compatible with NightOwl 20151030 (SELinux enabled), but encryption is NOT supported

- GCC 5.2 compiled

- Mali r3p2 merged

- FPBug fix

- 59Hz panel overclock

- TRIM enabled

- Updated Wi-Fi driver from i9305 KK

- zswap/vnswap from i9305 KK enabled (it's more efficient than zram)

- defaults to ondemand/ROW schedulers

Download :

* war_kernel_r1_cm121.zip for NightOwl 20151030 (camera fix reupload)

* Sources are available on GitHub

Plans for future versions:

- ondemand scheduler updates along with 14 CPU steps to bring performance and energy improvements

- Mali r4p0 merge? Might be worth trying again

- undervolting for battery savings

I will also investigate to fix gralloc which should remove any visible image tearing and some stuttering.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:

Forgot to say that this release is not compatible with device encryption. I do not plan to merge it since I won't be able to test it.

Hello [MENTION=1071241]GeckoDev[/MENTION], I'm going to thanks you for your hard work. I'm not going to test this r1 build because I'm too busy to test a kernel seriously, but want to thank you anyway. :good:

What is happening for N7000, this kind of legacy support I mean, is absolutely great, you, [MENTION=799465]bauner[/MENTION], [MENTION=4141005]Lanchon[/MENTION], [MENTION=4576973]forest1971[/MENTION] and others, all great devs working to keep this device not just alive, but def ruling among every other 4y old phones. It's hard to see devs collaborating and sharing commits each other, like it would have to be here on XDA, instead of fighting each other like enemies like it happens for other devices' subforums. Great indipendent developers makes great an old device, your skills makes a legacy device working like charm.

Hi. I'm new to N7000 community, I just flash 20151030 no gapps, test run for couple minutes seem OK ( first thing I test is video recording, cause my other device video recording is not working on CM12x). Then I flash WAR r1 latest, still no gapps, and test for video recording, result is not working. Reset (clean data) of camera app several times still not working. Revert back to stock 1030 kernel, video recording back again nicely. Anyway thanks for these development. I'll comeback here time to time. Thanks again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
[MENTION=4469705]KalZakath[/MENTION] you're such in a hurry :D

I don't plan to merge TWRP until it is available in a next version of NightOwl. Because it is not bugfree yet. And I don't see what's wrong with the current version lol

Camera recording fix will be merged pretty soon.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] KalZakath:
It's because this kernel is briliant and it accelerates already fast nightowl ROM. I am not asking ETA or something, only asking are those two things can be done in same time:) IF not it is not a problem.

[MENTION=5145944]GeeckoDev[/MENTION], just wondering if this could be used as a base for i9100? There were plans to converge some of your work with what Galaxy S1 guys were doing at some point, especially regarding updated mali and wifi drivers. Now that you're based off of 4210 would it be more straightforward of a job?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
Some changes to the defconfig would do the trick ;)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
I am testing Mali r4p0 drivers from HardKernel. It works and looks a little bit smoother to me, however Epic Citadel has a slightly lower benchmark score and I am observing very rare graphical glitches. I will release a test version soon.

This will be a blind test: two versions, r3p2 and r4p0, and I won't say which one is updated. You will have to vote :p

Fixed camera recording will come as soon as I get a stable internet connection back...

[MENTION=1071241]GeckoDev[/MENTION] can u consider adding stweaks or synapse support for ur kernel.

This kernel+full control over settings would be the best combination

Cheers!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] tamaraxxx:
Have been using the kernel for 2 days now. Performance and speed seems to be better then bauners kernel. Battery drain is a little bit more then the kernel bauner provides us.

Overall the kernel is working fine, perhaps you can find out what causes the higher battery drain. If you need logcat files, just give a call
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
War Kernel r2 will be released soon, bringing a snappier and smoother experience. Battery life should be equivalent or slightly better.

I'm not sure if it's worth releasing a Mali r4p0 test version considering there are some obvious bugs with these drivers :/

I will replace my SSD for Christmas, so I'll have enough disk space on my laptop to build a ROM by myself. Which means I'll be able to hack on the graphics stack in userspace quite easily, finally!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] GeeckoDev:
Announcing War Kernel r2

Changes over r1 :

- 13-step cpufreq for better scaling

- Switch to interactive cpufreq governor from 3.4-marshmallow, as recommended by Android. Snappier.

- 3-step DVFS for Mali: 160/200/267MHz instead of 134/267. UI and gaming are much smoother while limiting power draw.

- Misc fixes

Announcing Raw Kernel r3

Some users were complaining about r2's instability, so here comes r3!

Changelog :

* Restored GPU thresholds to values from XXLSZ. No yo-yo anymore! This change is part of the two commits I pushed to CyanogenMod.

* Restored GPU voltages to stock values (+50mV). As the kernel is using 134/200/266Mhz steps instead of 167/266MHz, it is actually still undervolted.

This should resolve all the problems encountered so far.
