Those who were haveing file not found issue, the only thing that has to be done was reove the https:// from the link, i've made the changes in the OP now you can download the kernel

 

[ammuuu08]

Okkk..

 

[hjmodi]

Eager to test and tested it also but cant boot up after installing it
Firstly i was installed it on Thunderzap kernel and then (thought that it may be overlapping) tried to install over stock CM 12.1 kernel also but same problem.

Hope get it running soon

working like a charm in Roar A50 :fingers-crossed:

With BlackBox-2.0 All Your Issues Are Solved Now!

 

[hjmodi]

Thanks a lot.. Working great loved it. But whenever i'm using governers other than hotplug and turn screen off its getting CPUstoo low that its getting switched off...
Same problem is there in Thunderzap Kernel by @varun.chitre15
I hope you will not mind a feature request...
I can't list each and every feature so i'll just point to Boeffla kernel... With almost every feature
Especially i just love PegasusQ governer

Thanks

Its Strange i've been using interactive plus for a day now and i haven't encountered any issues, even on thunderzap kernel used them and working fine! if u r sure its something other than your device a logcat will be appriciated as no one else in encountering this issue . I'll taka a look:fingers-crossed:

Thanks for your response but i don't know how to take proper logcat (whenever i'm using adb logcat its just showing too much command going on and keep going )

Hope you can point me and in the next reply i'll provide you the logcat :victory:

EDIT:- tried logcat > output/dir/lol.txt and this is what i got....

Same issue with this guys also here

Thanks for the reports, i'll take a look and make changes update fix and imrove the next version of kernel! Meanwhile as of i know these governors and io schedulers have issue with mediatek and thus causing all this issue! also the reason why varun disabled those governers!
Warm Regards!
