I have SuperSU and I'm just wondering if I should unroot my phone then flash via TWRP kernel and then magisk. Am I right or not? Anyway I will flash it asa I get home and get answer :). Good job OP :svetius:
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
If you want to switch to Magisk then yes, it's ok to do that. Unroot from SuperSU, flash kernel and then Magisk. Be sure to backup boot partition before this process.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] vojta933:
Ok, when I get back home from Sri Lanka I will flash it :D. I will let you know how it goes :). Anyway thanks again:D
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] vojta933:
So I successfully flashed kernel and magisk, but I have one question, how do I enable Tap 2 wake? I can't find it :/.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
In Synapse there is a tab for it.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] vojta933:
OMG I'm blind :D nevermind

Thanks for kernel OP ;)
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
There's a button for that ;)
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] hellexplore:
Hello guys i flash this kernel in stock nougat. How can i go back to the stock kernel?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Read OP.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] hellexplore:
So i only have to flash stock kernel? Do i have to restore boot and system from a previous backup to?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Tonyt0nn:
Has anyone tried G925P?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Only restore the boot partition and you're done.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] vojta933:
Spectrum is saying: not supported, contact Dev. Is problem with my kernel or wrong app?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
There's no Spectrum support. I said to use Synapse. Read the OP and FAQ. It's totally free!
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] cisekpro:
I tried in My S6 SM-G920F not working (bootloop)
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Have you flashed root again?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] sh500:
Hi all,

Been trying to find a way to improve battery life for my S6 flat, so I flashed this kernel but my battery charge only goes up to 83%. If I restore back to stock kernel charging is up to 100%

Does the battery need calibration? If so what's the best method?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] King-V:
Flash this while your battery is lower than 70%,

Turn the phone off,

Charge it to 100%,

Take cable out and insert again,

If it's still 100% - turn it on,

If it's lower - keep charging it.

This worked for me, as I faced this issue, however mine was stuck at... 78% I think.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] sh500:
This seems to have work. Thanks.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
I'll add your post to the FAQ. Thank you for this useful tutorial. :)

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] GayCasper:
Has there been any new updates to this kernel?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Thank you very much :) These bootanimations are really beautiful. Keep up the good work ;)

I'm waiting for Oreo :) Also I'll buy the S9 maybe in April or May (waiting for a price drop) and this phone (the S6) will be my mother's phone. But I think that Oreo will arrive the next month :) I'll definitely update my kernel to 4.0 and fix up some things.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] blackstorm998:
:eek: How can I solve the problem?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Try Synapse MOD from FAQ.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] blackstorm998:
I tried but it does not change :confused:
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
ROM?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] blackstorm998:
odex lite with magisk
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Check this file path: /sys/devices/battery.53/power_supply/battery/temp

If this path is not correct for you then check the same path but replace 53 with 54.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] blackstorm998:
it does not make me change the name of the folder :crying:
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
I didn't say to rename the folder :) I said to check the path :)

Is the path I mentioned ok? Send a screenshot.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] blackstorm998:
i had battery.52 :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
1. Use Solid Explorer. It's better than Root Explorer (I used it before Solid Explorer and it was really buggy).

2. I don't know. It's just the battery temperature not something very important. I'll fix it in 4.0 (if Oreo will come in time otherwise I'll make version 3.5).
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] blackstorm998:
thank you bro forgive me but I'm a little ignorant :good::good::good:
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
You're not :) You're welcome man. I hope that it will work after the fix.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] maretomic:
I installed OdexLite custom ROM and my wifi password are being forgotten every time i turn off wifi. I thought that i will fix this bug using this kernel. After successfully flashing Aldeon my S6 can't turn on, its just restarting into twrp. Anybody knows some solution?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
1. Read OP. This should be automatically!!!

2. Have you flashed root again as I stated in OP?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] maretomic:
No, i haven't

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Hoboc:
will this work with RR rom?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Have you seen it on the compatibility list?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] KingKRiggz:
Can you add compatibility for SM-G920P (Sprint/Boost Mobile) I can't find ANY Kernel's that will recognize a S7 Edge battery and really there's not much for the 920P variant at all. Guy I took my phone to said it wouldn't even turn on with the S7E battery installed.

I just flashed my G925i rooted official 7.0 ROM with V3.4, install Lin2SD app upgraded: it says Your device use "sdcardfs" File system in your internal sdcard, and installed root checker and cannot open' false stopped.. Busybox is the same False stopped. And double tap wake screen doesn't work.. Please help
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
S6 doesn't have any SDCard slot ??? It's obvious that Link2SD is useless ? Also I explained in FAQ how to install BusyBox. Have you red it?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
I use link2sd before no says like this.. I just looked ur FAQ:.6. Where to install BusyBox? In /su/xbin or /system/xbin... But when i open bustbox apk it force stopped... can't do anything.. And root checker also force stopped.. And double tap wake doesn't work
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Hmm... Try reflashing Magisk (I think that you have Magisk).
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
I am using supersu n xposed, I never use Magisk before, I must flash it now?

I installed n opened another new busybox n not force stopped but it showed I already installed busybox 1.26 so no need to install again.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
No, you don't need to flash it. Are you using Stericson BusyBox?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
I used Stericson BusyBox but after flashed ur kernel, it force stopped. I installed busybox 12.8 already before flash ur kernel. Now I'm using Jrummy BusyBox. Not force stop.

Double tap to wake screen doesn't work.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Have you enabled it in Synapse? :eek:
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
THANKS!! It works now! [emoji1]

Please make Synapse Mod tutorial

I don't change Synapse anything yet, all are default settings except double tap wake screen enabled.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] FTC55_:
Does this kernel disable dm-verity? Because I'm considering flashing this as soon as I flash TWRP to prevent bootloops caused by dm-verity. Also Magisk says that if you want to flash a custom kernel you should flash magisk first but OP says I should reflash root after flashing the kernel so what should i do first?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
You won't get any bootloop if you flash Magisk right after the kernel. I didn't disable dm-verity because of SafetyNet stuff. Flash kernel and then Magisk (because it will patch dm-verity).
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] FTC55_:
So this means that there's no way of installing the kernel only? I would really like to keep safetynet but I heard that even Magisk is going to invalidate it.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
You heard it wrong ? Yes, Magisk dev will be somehow inactive until June this year but we're still passing SafetyNet check.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] FTC55_:
Oh, thank you very much for the info. I'll be flashing magisk along with the kernel following your procedure then.:good:

I have installed S7 edge battery but do i need to root my phone and flash this kernel in order to use the real capacity of it?

Did someone try it on 925f and does it work ?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
You can do a backup and then to try to install the kernel. If it works please tell me. If not, you can restore boot.img from backup (or if something bad happens you can restore everything).
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] liceto:
Is it possible to brick the device ?

Not Working on G925F with Custom Rom Golden Eagle Code RR.

White Screen after boot.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Then I'll build separately for Edge (tomorrow). I'll build before Synapse support. (Later edit: it will take some time until I'll add Synapse support but I would like to continue to use Kernel Adiutor which is easier to use.)

Stay tuned and please make sure to report if works :D
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
I just uploaded an update which adds zRAM and KSM supports and also I uploaded the first Edge (G925F) build. Please test the Edge version and tell me if it works as I don't have this device.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Added a FAQ in post #3 :D
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] liceto:
Works on 925f but im facing random freezes when the cpu is on default settings. I installed in on Noble 4.5 ROM.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Try to set min CPU frequency for big to 200 MHz and for little to 400 MHz. If still not working, set 800 MHz for big. After I'll add GPU control, the simplest fix will be to set stock min and max frequencies for GPU.

Also thanks for your feedback. I'll add G925F in the compatibility list.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] liceto:
No reboots with 800mhz for big. Great job :)

Edit: with 2100-800 and 1500-400 on interactive governor reboots start ,only on userspace doesnt reboot :(
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Uploaded v2.4. See changelog.

I still didn't added Synapse because it is really hard to configure. After I will update the kernel's Linux version I'll start working on Synapse (it will take some time until it will be stable for using).
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] TheMalvage:
With the new update it is really unstable...

I flashed this kernel on latest XEF stock it did not boot...mybe of Knox

Can you please make one without Knox

I really need a custom overclocked and undercooked kernel for s6 android 7 please
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] muhammedali:
Does this kernel support aod thanks
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Starnel:
Are we supposed to Not use Max volume with the surround sound mod ? The earpiece distorts quite a bit on max volume
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] TheMalvage:
It depends on the headphone/speaker/earpiece, high quality ones won't distort the sound while cheap ones will
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
That's happening because of the boost to the sounds.

No. If you want I can add it. I'm unable to find a way to add AOD support in this kernel without "touching" the battery drain. You can use an app called Always On Display on Google Play Store which has a better implementation and is more battery friendly than a port of AOD.

Did you flashed root again (if you were previously rooted)? Also tell me the model.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
thanks but can't understand the tutorial
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] FTC55_:
I successfully installed the kernel and magisk and SafetyNet is still intact. But I am experiencing some lag in some menu animations and the phone even rebooted once. What might be causing this? Are all settings stock in synapse by default because i would like to get the same experience as stock without overclocking but still get rid of the lag.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
I don't have time for this! I'm busy with exams.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Synapse should be discovered by the users. Personally, I'm not using any complex profile. It's just a little modification according to my daily usage.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
now my camera force stopped, can't use.. why? I uninstalled it n rebooted n then reinstalled it.. n rebooted.. still force stopped...
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
I don't know what you did :eek: It's your fault. Check every file you modified. Camera will force close only when it will miss libs or when something went wrong. A dalvik cache clean will possibly fix the issue. Also clean the app data.

I had the same issue when I switched to S8 camera and then back to S6.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
thanks, I flashed MiPa ROM and now flashed back to official ROM again. But ur Synapse Mod showed doesn't support.. it said: No UCI supported detected!!
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Did you know that I made a FAQ?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
I see. But I flashed ur kernel for 2 times, first times I used for 3 days n the synapse mod worked fine. But second I flashed again then it said No UCI supported detected..
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Check the FAQ again. :)) It will tell you how to fix the issue.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
thanks, I reinstalled it again then seems works now. do I need to change kernel auditor? or it is ok with default settings?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Read OP again. I said that you should use Synapse.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] herrschardt:
Can somebody help me? I flashed the kernel via TWRP but now im on a bootloop and wont get out.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] herrschardt:
I havent flashed root before...
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Oh... You should flash Magisk to keep SafetyNet in a working state. Also it's the only way to use the kernel.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] herrschardt:
Ok i try it

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] zinou111:
yoo everyone!

well, i flashed this kernel cuz i needed that XBOX CONTROLLER SUPPORT..

but it somehow decreased my gaming performance!

i just want to know what are the best settings to do in synapse to get the best gaming experience & the highest fps.. i don't really care bout battery cuz i have my charger all time, soo yea thats it.. and thanks.

btw, my rom is the global elite rom 4.1 the games were running smoothly on stock kernel.. but after flashing this it got decreased.. i tried to change CPU governors but it didn't really help tho.. so plz help me!
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Use the max frequencies for both CPUs and GPU and the interactive governor. Also KSM should help a little bit. And there are some other profiles available in the app for CPU and GPU tunning.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] zinou111:
okay! and how to change frequencies? cuz i don't really messup alot with that slidy settings in synapse..

btw, my GPU governor is "Booster".
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
I don't have time to give you information now. Use the max frequencies for everything (CPU and GPU). How hard could it be to adjust a slider to 2.3 GHz for big core and to 1.7 GHz for little core and then to 772 MHz for GPU and set all governors on Interactive including GPU?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] zinou111:
you just gave me the information xD

thanks alot bro! I'll do this.. that's what i wanted to know.

---------- Post added at 04:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 PM ----------

btw.. any side effects? except from heavy battery drain?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
Possibly random reboots. 2.1 GHz on big core will give you stability while you can keep the rest of frequencies on max.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Kampfbrot03:
Will it run on LineageOS 15 (Unofficial) too?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
God! READ THE OP!!!
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
u recommended me to use Synapse, not ur Synapse Mod?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
It's the same app just different themes and Synapse MOD has backup and restore.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] SXS4:
ok, so I use yours. Thanks
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] :
Tryed on latest nougat stock rom, synapse or other apps can't change voltage or added cpu frequencys. On my phone battery drains too fast even with all posible tweaks, so that is reason I'm looking for this kernel with undervolt options. Where can I find logs to send you them?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
I don't need the logs, I need more information. What's happening? What is Synapse saying when you want to change the voltages?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] killerBRs:
Me too, I tried to explain this to dev, but he says that is not the kernel problem.

But.. I tried other kernel and stock and works normal...

I tried to UC And down Max Freq. From a57, results are minimal:rolleyes:

Using Stock 7.0 UPDATED firmware to ZTO region, latest Magisk and latest Aldeon Kernel.

---------- Post added at 03:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 AM ----------

Install kernel, And install latest Magisk.

After this, install BusyBox module inside Magisk,

Install Synapse, try to open

If "NO UCI" happen, close from Task Manager and open again.

Or use Synapse from Google play.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
No, you didn't ? in fact you explained me about the overheating issue. This user is talking about voltages and not about overheating.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] killerBRs:
Is about battery drain.

You may have heard that our device won't get Oreo. Because of that this kernel is now EOL.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Fishawy:
Whether there will be a final version or not, we thank you for the journey and the efforts. :)

Your kernel was and still is one of the most stable day-to-day kernels I've used, and the cherry-on-top was the DT2W in v3.4. Much appreciated.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] killerBRs:
You can update kernel base version to latest from 2018, this version has some problems in battery drain :/
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
You mean the upstream Linux version? If yes, the I really don't know. Latest versions need some more fixing in order to get stable and to not have a big battery drain. My version is ok for now.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] killerBRs:
No, is version released from Samsung in fev. patch
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] arneldna:
Hey this is the Bootanimation Guy! lolzz

My phone's battery is terrible with or without your kernel, especially when Wifi/Data is turned on. So I really can't blame anyone but the phone's battery. I am planning to get a new OG battery from Samsung in a hope that the new battery with your Kernel (v2.9..don't need OC) will do wonders.

Right now my SOT stands close to 2 hrs with a total usage of just over 6 hours with Wifi turned on.

I really didn't get the opportunity to test your kernel's battery life, because my battery already sucked by the time I rooted my Phone, Performance was excellent though and way better than Stock Kernels. so my question here to you and others is, do you suggest that I get a new battery? and will I actually see a gain in the battery life?

Also, [MENTION=6371648]minealex2244[/MENTION] Does our phone have this /sys/kernel/abb-chargalg/eoc_status (Real End-Of-Charge) thing, something I recall from my previous rooted Phone, when it says "First eoc reached",then the UI should show you charged 100%, but it is not the real full charged until it says the real EOC reached...again just a question..

Honestly, my next move would depend on you people's response..Thank you.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
I don't want to do this on a non-removable battery. I did it on my S3 and it got swollen. I won't do it with an S6.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Tasneem khan:
RR 8.1 official have been released just waiting for kernel update to move on....
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] minealex2244:
1. This is a 7.0 kernel!!! Don't you see the title?!

2. This kernel is EOL!!! Again, don't you see the title?!
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] killerBRs:
I don't know that is Magisk 16.x Problem,

But I'm having a problem after flashing Aldeon and Magisk, sometimes Magisk loose root and Manager says "Magisk is not installed"

Thing that does not occur in Stock Kernel, I don't know why...

If anyone can test this and install BusyBox module from Magisk Manager(To use Synapse)
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Tasneem khan:
Try SuperSu...
