[Galaxy Tab S2 Android Development] engine95:
N4N (Neked 4 Nougat) RB1 Kernel for 710,810,715,815​

There's just nothing like good ol' stock. Everything just works. Even after 2 years+ they're still selling these Tabs. And they can still compete with newer ones.

RB1 came out after the Meltdown and Spectre scare. So this is the kernel you should be running. Either Stock or mine.

You flash this at your own risk. I'm am not responsible for anything that happens!!! There's the discaimer. :p

MAKE A FULL BACKUP IN TWRP!!!!!

These kernels modify your ROM. So you WILL NOT be able to FLASH/RESTORE the stock kernel only.

Synapse is a custom kernel tuner. This Kernel has UCI built in so Synapse can work. It's the only tuner I've found that will tune everything I've built into it. - Get Synapse from the Playstore​

See post #2 for Synapse info

See post #3 for other infos and updates

Install instructions:

You MUST HAVE TWRP installed to flash this!!

MAKE A FULL BACKUP IN TWRP!!!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!!!!!!

Bugs and Root

As of V1.3, using Magisk is supported

SuperSU 2.82 works for everything. Magisk DOES NOT work for everything and slows the System.

So, and regretfully, I will not support Magisk or Xposed. They both slow the system and have issues for me and this kernel. Sorry, I tried. :( See Post #16

If you have Synapse installed , make all settings to stock and uninstall. It'll probably still give you a "System UI error". Just move on, and reboot after a couple minutes.

V1.3 - NO SYNAPSE SUPPORT Use a Tuner of your choice. MTweaks (Free) or EX Kernel Manager(Paid) seem to do the best
