[MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION] I just want to say that I am very happy with your kernel! I have been using it since 4.3 and I am currently running 7.0 beta 1. I have had no issues.

The latest kernel is great in both performance and battery life. I managed to get 6 hours of screen on time with auto brightness and still have some juice left. Also the battery lasts me a full day of heavy use no problem. I am on 4G or WiFi all day and I also use bluetooth alot.

Regarding the SwiftKey lag mentioned in this thread, I managed to get rid of both that and the lockscreen lag early on by disabling samsung spcm completely(wich has no noticeable performance impact or impact on battery for me).

My rom is heavily de bloated. But I have kept the essential stuff like edge screen, Samsung store, stealth, themes etc and everything works fine.

I just wanted to say Thank you for this awesome kernel.

I will post pics of screen on time and benchmark when I get to my computer.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] Fanatico:
That sounds awesome !! Any way you can share with us the pictures you mentioned as well as the list of bloatware removed ?

I would love to have my phone last 6 Hours screen time, i could only get that with my Xperia z3.

I still need to root, but need to make sure it is worth it. and just asking im sure i will answer my own question but let me ask anyway,

Samsung Pay will not work right ?

Knox is triggered but device functions normal ?

Also is it possible to "Unknox" in case of warranty issue ?

Can't wait to hear for ya to root my phone.

Thanks !

7.0-beta2 is live.

7.0-beta2

SELinux completely disabled

- This should greatly increase available memory, however might decrease stability as Touchwiz Android 5.1 is full of hardcoded SELinux stuffs

Dual-Sim model support dropped due to development inconsistencies
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] citytrader:
Does it has the touch firmware reverted!?
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] knite75:
Yes, it will tripped Knox, and it's irreversible (at the moment).

Samsung Pay will not work.

7.0-beta1. was getting wpc_opfq_lock wakelock after removing phone from charger. Could not find any info on this wakelock.

Not dramatic battery drain but noticeable versus v6.0.

Reverted back to 6.0 and no longer have this wakelock.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] Wesley_NL:
Im also fine with this kernel like i showed its not much of bat drain either, just in case it did drain i still have an 2ah solar charger with volt change ,5,7.5,9.5v and the device accept it at 9.5v to so no problems,sofar only a touch screen bug that it wont react at times thats all, i removed some stock apps from google and some of samsungs and still functional like it should ,keep up the good work and improve it

Could you tell me how did you find it (wakelock detector? which section?)

Just want to check mine.

I want to compile Arter97's kernel by myself, who can help me!? I'm trying to find a good tutorial to explaing even how to install the correct toolchain without success!!
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] Wesley_NL:
i dont use touchwiz anyways, but this don't affect the rest of the apps right ?

---------- Post added at 09:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 AM ----------

thx for a list of apps you removed, i removed them to now, i wasnt sure if it affect my phone if i removed some of these, if it goes wrong i still have an old backup i made in philz recovery, although it was with the 6.0 final kernel,
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] MichaelGroth:
Cool. It's always nice to have a backup :). I have been running debloated for a month now with no problems, but you never know.

-Mike
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] citytrader:
There is no need to uninstall all that files, for example ChokoEUKor is a font, do you think that removing a font will improve performance? :D

If you uninstall Weather Daemon will cause some problems when touching the border in standby.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] MichaelGroth:
:)

I know. I just gave out my whole list. I am not very fond of changing around the fonts on my phone so I removed it. I do not need it or will ever use it.

Weather Deamon will indeed not give you the weather forecast when swiping the border in standby but it will not cause problems. I can still use my news ticker and notification ticker. What will cause problems however is CatchFavorites wich will break it completely. Anyway, I am just sharing my personal debloated list. Not saying anyone have to use it or follow it to the T, but thanks for pointing things out.

If anyone followed my complete list and wants Weather Daemon back, here is the apk: WeatherDaemon2015.apk

Place it in /system/app/WeatherDaemon2015/ and set permissions to rw-r--r-- and reboot.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] Wesley_NL:

hey another off topic quastion,

1. is there a way to change volume steps isntead 10% to 5% per press?

2. is there a way when screenlock is active tat i also can use volume buttons for prev/next track ? for example vol up + power button is next ?

3. how to make an gif/apng an animated wallpaper
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] xanthrax:
None of your requests are kernel related, ask your rom developer in his thread for 1 and 2 and as for the 3rd one, go to questions and answers thread or search on Google

And please refrain from more "off topic " the users are interested in kernel development, each thread has got its own topic, thanks

Same cycle as 7.0.

Here goes 8.0-alpha1, with cutting-edge changes.

8.0-alpha1

Scheduler, workqueue, network drivers, power-managements commits backported from mainline Linux and CodeAurora(Qualcomm)

for better performance, responsiveness and power consumption

(Thanks to XileForce)

This kernel is unstable and regular end-user should avoid it.

Try this only if you're brave and back-up before you proceed.

Most commits are from [MENTION=4517211]Xileforce[/MENTION]'s Git repository, with my own fix-ups here and there.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] citytrader:
ISSUE 1: Don't know if this is kernel related or not, a couple of minutes ago I pressed home to wake up my phone and it remained on black screen, I had to press 4 or 5 times the home button to wake up the device, the phone is G928G with fingerprint unlock activated and in the moment of that happened it was attached to the charger.

ISSUE 2: Last night I put my phone in flight mode, but after 30min I wanted to check something in internet and I turned on the wifi only, it took at least 30 seconds for the WIFI to turn on, after the turned on the connection witht the hot spot was fast.

Kernel v.7

Could be probably but the problem is not at connecting, the problem is at activating because the icon becomes light green in the quick settings instead of green (after become green, connection is fast) and using mostly stock kernel did not happen to me that issue. The rom is full stock.

---------- Post added at 09:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 AM ----------

Showing SOT is totally useless, I use my phone to do Skype calls and my SOT times will be less than any other because the phone is consuming its power while screen is off.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] arter97:
Might be a difference within International Wi-Fi drivers VS Korean Wi-Fi drivers as my kernel is based on Korean source.

I'll look into those stuffs. Meanwhile, I'd highly appreciate it if you can dump a log at that particular moment.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] citytrader:
I think there is a difference because of the wifi frequencies allowed for each country, for your reference you could take a look at the source code of my model G928G that I think is valid for all america: SM-G928G_LATIN_LL_Opensource.zip ( http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=g928g )

I have the last logs so maybe you could take a look for any anomaly, the issue happened between 7am and 8am.

I will try to recreate it again, but could be probably the difference in drivers, I don't know how to compile the kernel to try with my sources :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] Лithium-Фusion:
Yeah showing it is useless but sot is not. A reason to draining must be found and optimized.

It easy to understand but you are missing the point I explained with Skype... I have no more than 3hrs SOT, with other devices I have not more than 1hs SOT and the use is correct without any abnormal drain, each user has different uses, for that posting SOT is useless.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] xanthrax:
Actually, when using Skype or any other battery killer application, the usage shown in the battery stats will reveal why the SOT it is low or high and in this case Skype will be on top of the SOT

SOT it is important only corroborated with the other battery stats which means it's pointless to show the SOT without the other battery usage

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Android Development] Wesley_NL:
Have you followed the gui? Boot loop is fixed by flashin offical firmware trouhg odin after that it should bootup normaly if so then do this

1. Go to settings > about device > software info > tab 10x on build number and you see it counts to enable development options

2. Go to develop options after and enable OEM unlock and usb debug

3. Boot the phone after into download mode and instal the root trough odin, mind you to check odin settings

4. It should not auto boot after flash you boot it manually

If you did it correct then it should work like it never happened

I had problems to by not following the guide correcty
