Kcal is still not working in latest version.
Only Rgb is working.
No saturation , contrast or value is working.
Tried via both given app and Synapse.
Kindly look into it.

Thanks for your work.

Soft problem

i updated rom from 2.1 to 3.0 and when i turn on my z1 it restarts immidietly at sim unlock screen

Stock logo

Hi, I appreciate the rom and the kernel. Runs solid and I love the additional governors. Awesome job with double tap also, I know its more battery consuming, but still love it hehe.
Would there be a possibility to have a version that just uses the stock logo rather than the customised one? wanting a completely stock look. Thanks alot for looking into this.

Mighty_X · Mar 12, 2015

just to let you know...
You missspelled Kernel in the Header. You wrote Kerel.. Cheers

alexandre221 · Mar 15, 2015

Would you also please solve the Kcal issue ?
That's the only thing that's been keeping me from using your kernel as a daily driver.
Is it helps, xtrinity v6 kernel has it working perfectly.
Perhaps you could take a look at the devs github ?
Thank you !

Normally it's the rom then kernel. If you do it the other way around, the kernel in the rom will just overwrite the one you flashed.
