I've no idea what's that so no.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] mad jebon:
one bugs found,,zram i change to 1 gb,,after reboot its go back to 512mb
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] Watanabe_You:
That's not a bug. Default will be 512mb, change manually or use a kernel manager to change it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] mad jebon:
i already use kernel manager,ex kernel manager,kernel audiator,smack pack,all i try,,its change to 1gb,i set on boot,but when reboot it go back to 512mb,you can try and see

thanks..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] Watanabe_You:
Open the zip, go into ramdisk, open spectrum.rc. Set zram disksize to 1073741824, save, flash and reboot. If it still doesn't work the good luck.

Sorry for my lack of knowledge, but what is an EAS Rom?

and also what would HMP be?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] Watanabe_You:
EAS: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.xda-developers.com/google-pixel-fastest-android-phone-eas/amp/

Tl;dr: EAS is a new implementation to combine smooth ux/performance with minimum power. HMP is the normal stuff we use instead.

For an EAS kernel to work properly ROMs need to be optimised for EAS as well.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] lumin25:
I understand, thanks for your quick reply Bro.

I'll try this with DU later.

just one more question, how will this behave in games?

Finally! Another EAS Kernel!

I'm looking for this since Revolt EAS discontinued.

Thanks for your hard work sir ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] greenys':
When I used the eas version with Syberia Peoject it worked fine with a pretty good score. After I rolled back to 8.1 Oreo and flashed HMP v3 on latest Lineage OS 15.1 the device wouldn't boot. So I'd say it's a nice kernel but I wish I knew how to solve bootloop on Oreo.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 [Snapdragon] ROMs, Kernels, Re] uaevuon:
Can I install EAS kernel on non-EAS rom?

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] kvothe777:
i have a galaxy s9+ , snapdragon, SM-G965W.

i purchased it on kijiji for $900 about 6 months ago and have not had any issues with it, until the other day i woke up and it was telling me phone not available, sim not registered.

after doing some research i found that my IMEI is blacklisted.

i cannot seem to find who the original service provider is to find the reason why it is blacklisted. ( any advice how i may do that?)

i realize it is not possible to root my version of the s9+

i have done some research and phoned around and i have found someone through a repair shop that claims he can repair my IMEI, he wants $200 dollers and claims it will have a lifetime warranty

i have read that people repair their imei and it may get blacklisted again, so maybe his warranty is he will just repair it again?

i am pretty tech savvy and confident i can do it myself if its possible, or is it just a scam
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] kenennaoyeka:
Relax.

I dunno how ur phone just woke up and lost its IMEI but its a simple fix.

Just figure out a way to install 965U or U1 firmware on your W model. I see people on here have got it done. I personally have a U so i am not hindered by the W problems which are candian models. Once u use ODIN and restore the firmware, the IMEI should fix itself (i am assuming u didnt mess around with ur EFS and root partitions or do any hardcore tinkering)

---------- Post added at 09:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

Or just try W firmware with Patched ODIN from here https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?q=SM-G965W&rpp=15&order=date&dir=desc&exact=1

Your mileage may vary. We can help though
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] kvothe777:
Thanks for the info guys will do some research after work.

So you believe this will fix/change a blacklisted IMEI?

Basically what I've gathered is I use Odin to reinstall a U or U1 or possibly W firmware and it should cure my IMEI? Or do I need to restore a firmware and then use Odin after?

What did you mean by a patched Odin?

Thanks again sorry for sending noob questions.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] kenennaoyeka:
The concept of a blacklisted IMEI is different. U said recover in the title which inferred ur IMEI was 'Unknown'. If you have an IMEI number that is blacklisted and thus u cannot get a signal, odds are the phone isnt paid for. Now u need some people online like reseller.swiftunlocks.com to either change ur IMEI or pay d device off, the former being super sketchy but hey!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] kvothe777:
Ah darn okay. Well this guy at the phone repair shop said he'd do it for $200 so I'll probably give that a try

And its 200 Canadian dollars, the phone is going for 6-700 on kijiji now, and I've learned not to buy phones on kijiji lol

My phone suddenly didn't have a reception today, after rebooting I regained reception but couldn't make calls.

I tried repeatedly to flash the ROM and then noticed I was getting an error : failed to mount system , invalid argument.
