my recommended settings (these are also kernel default settings):
CPU: 2265mhz - 300mhz; interactive; 2 (always active cores on touch)
GPU: 450mhz - 200mhz; msm-adreno-tz
Storage: fiops; 512kb (for both)

These settings are optional:
Display: Black level: 1,56% (max); White: FF F0 FF (for a warmer white point)

What is your basis for screen adjustments? Did you use any tools? Just curious.

About the problems with smearing and black crush (and why it can be useful to increase the black level) i would like to quote two explanations:
[...]One thing about the S4 is that the Samsung color profiles will crush everything below 1.5% or someone would call 1.5IRE.
This happens to black level and causes the black crush effect: check here, the first 8 steps are not distinguishable, with the small increase above 1.5% you can almost recognize the first step.

From AndreiLux:
i950X devices have an issue with the AMOLED controller in which, if individial pixels get power-gated for true black, they occur a latency delay when getting powered on again, resulting in a visible smearing effect.

Acts on the black RGB channel filters of the mDNIe engine to elevate pure black to a deep grey. Acts as single control; it acts as a luminosity addend to all greyscale colours in 0.39% steps.

A value of 3 or 4 should be satisfactory to remove the smearing.

Everything else like the white point is only inaccurate measured without proper calibration tools, so this is more or less a personal taste rather than a correct calibration.

When I flash kernel, these above will set by default?

Otherwise I don't see where to adjust these:

2 (always active cores on touch)
GPU: 450mhz - 200mhz; msm-adreno-tz
Storage: fiops; 512kb (for both)

Installation process and X-Note Compatibility

Hello gentlemen,

I'm definitely excited & THANKFUL to see a kk kernel finally pop up for Tmo but i'm a little uncertain on the process of installing this kernel. What recovery do i need to flash this kernel. I'm currently running the stock rom wit root access knox is at 0x0 but i just got this Note replaced 4 days ago and i dont want CWM to ruin my phone again . I dont care if i trip knox as long as my phone actually works. The 4.3 to 4.4 jump scares me a bit because of the whole update the bootloader thing.

Long story short. i want to get from this factory stock 4.3 rooted rom over to X-Note 11 (requires 4.4.2) and flash this kernel to complete the system
I'm familiar with Odin tools and zip flashing but not with ADB or scripts/commands. I RARELY post for help lol but always do some heavy research before modding any new phone i get. I have been happily flashing and following devs since 2010!

If anyone can help break down this process for me i'd greatly appreciate it.

i asked for help as well in the Xnote 11 Q&A forum ---> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2666280&page=15
