Hammerhead AKA Nexus 5 Hybrid Kernel

What is a Hybrid?

Hybrid kernel means the core although still has the 3.4.0 kernel label, it has incorporated many advanced features available only on Linux 3.8+ and beyond. I have backported many of those advanced features for Linux 3.4, hence the name hybrid!

Here's the flashable zip file

sysfs interface for controlling this kernel:

general format:

xxx is the value, can be integer or text depending on the yyy.
(It's pretty obvious if you view the sysfs entry first to see the values it's expecting)

Code:

echo xxx > /sys/yyy/yyy/yyy

RAD. Well there definitely won't be a kernel shortage. Looking forward to actually getting my device even more now. Thanks

No faux no party! I didn't even have doubts though, seeing as you were one of the first to jump on the flo/deb as well. Just booted the kernel and everything seems fine. Didn't flash through recovery so i left out the included lib.

tell4ever · Nov 3, 2013

you just won't leave us on stock for a few days wouldn't you

great to see you here

Glad to see u again Faux, I'm finally abandoning the G2X(which you did wonders for even though it died long ago) for the Nexus 5

I'll give this a go on Monday when I get mine in the mail.

Lots of things. Main things are (some not implemented yet): color control, faux sound, faux speaker, removal of mpdecision, over clock, under volt, thermal control, per app modes and more.
