[EOL][KERNEL][TW501/CM12.1/GPE5.1][I9505][11.10.15] Hulk-Kernel V2.0 Beta2 available

Tkkg1994 · Mar 9, 2015

Hello all togerher, as I promised you, I continue Googys great work here on a new kernel thread.

Supports Touchwiz 4.4.2, 4.4.4 and 5.0.1. Google Play Edition 5.0 and Cyanogenmod 12 AND CM12.1
IF YOU FOLLOW MY STEPS BELOW, YOU WILL LOSE YOUR WARRANTY, KNOX WILL DISPLAY 0x1! I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGED DEVICE!

Hulk-Rom, a Touchwiz based rom made by myself!

If you have an other kernel tweaker installed, please uninstall it before flashing this. If sTweaks isn't installed correctly, you can install it from the OP, I added it to the download section.
This kernel is based on the great work of googy_anas, who sadly choose to buy a Galaxy S5, so I think, the users there will have a lot of fun with his perfect work!
You also got the option to select an overclocked version of this kernel, or just the normal one. OC runs fine for me, but some testers are facing problems. So it depends on YOU what you want, I always want to make the most users confident.
STweaks is no longer included in the zip file, please download it manually and install it, the link is below

Q&A

Q: My sTweask support does not work, what can I do? You messed something up with it!!
A: No, I haven't. Your busybox, or at least your setup with busybox is not correct. Go ahead and install busybox on rails from the playstore, tip on "clean and install" and try it again, it will work

Q: Will you add feature "X" to your kernel?
A: There is one chance that I add it to my kernel. simply post this question in the thread and if I find it usefull, I will implement it. Otherwise not.

Q: What are the best settings for a balanced using between battery saving and performance?
A: This settings are already the default ones. Because this default values are my personal settings, so this will be the best balance between power and battery (at least on TW roms, because I'm using this).

Q: What are the best settings for powersaving?
A: Governor: Intellimm. IOsched: row. Maxcpufreq: something around 1500 MHz. Hotplug: Intelliplug.

Q: When is the next update coming?
A: As soon as possible. I am working really hard on bringing you a good update. That means also I have to test everything etc. I wont deliver you updates with big bugs! I better take my time and make everything working

Q: Do I need to install sTweaks after a kernel update again?
A: No you don't. The sTweaks values are changed in the ramdisk of the kernel. So just keep your current version.

Q: Does it matter which version of sTweaks I installed?
A: Actually not. Most sTweaks versions are unique. Means they are only changed in the way they look (themes). And I don't have a special version of sTweaks. So most of it will work.

I will. Soon

Problem is, I have to apply all changes to this sources again. Means, the work of googy over 8 months again... that takes some time. And it isn't out official. I want the official ramdisk source

PS: Google just released android 5.1 officialandroid.blogspot.ch/2015/03/android-51-unwrapping-new-lollipop.html?m=1

Pho3nX · Mar 9, 2015

Thanks, i can't wait for TW LP Kernel :good::highfive:

nadejo · Mar 9, 2015

Nice to have someone who keeps developing this amazing kernel. Hope there will be an asop Version and support for GPU OC & f2fs.

thanks keep up the good work!!

Waiting for GPE5 Version

Will you enable to ability to have custom CPU and GPU Voltage control? Will you also add more kernel features like K-Toonz like double tap to wake and custom fast charge control and make the "s-tweaks app more like the k-Toons K-Tuner app when the CM builds are released?

Custom fast charge values, we need this.

xDroidZz · Mar 10, 2015

qtwrk · Mar 10, 2015

Can you share your settings pls?

roeno01 · Mar 10, 2015

GoogyMax was supported by the model i9515 roms in TW 4.4.2, the kernel and also ????

itsmejson · Mar 10, 2015

@Tkkg1994 - since this is for 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 is it OK to use this with Verizon_TW_4.4.2_NK1, ROM for the VerizonSamsung*Galaxy*S*4 ?

Im pretty sure that the 200MHz drop was something that was in the stock kernel from samsung and the kernel that CM uses/builds. He also need CPU underclocking steps for power saving which is something that googy kernel did not have.

[EOL][KERNEL][TW501/CM12.1/GPE5.1][I9505][11.10.15] Hulk-Kernel V2.0 Beta2 available

What do you think I should do because of the update I am working on? thanks!

Try to figure out what causes the problems and fix

Go back to the last working version and work there

Go back at V1.3.1 and start again with everything

Stop developing...
