Hey regalstreak I successfully flashed your kernel on my S7262 and I thank you for this, but im facing some issues with this kernel. It did not happen before when I'm using stock kernel.

1.) When I mount the sd card in my phone or if I restart/reboot/open the phone with sd card inserted, some of the files inside (eg. videos, musics) becomes 0bytes and corrupted. It did not happen if I greenify all my apps (including system apps) before I insert my sd card.

2.) Sometimes the touch of my phone freezes on boot even I'm opening only light apps like Opera Mini but the app is still running. I observed this because I am using "Show touches" in debug mode. And when I open heavy apps like Clash of Clans, the touch pointer freezes but the app is running, so when I try to attack a village, yipee "I lost" haha...

I hope you understand this coz I'm a Filipino and literally poor in English haha. I hope you give me an advice for this issue and it will be fixed soon. Thanks again for the kernel.
:)
Im afraid that I hadnt faced these while i had a star pro and i have long deprecated the kernel. @FireLord may help you on this

Edit: You may switch to his kernel now which is active in development. Ask him for more information. I develop for my oneplus2 now.

FAQ_zpshe9c9qs4.jpg


Q1) Will it work on my ROM?
Ans: Yes! It works on all the ROMs available for our device. (Custom/Stock)

Q2) The phone is lagging!
Short Answer:It will ofcourse lag in the beginning for a minute. See the phone speed up after that!
Long Answer:The phone builds the cache and dalvik cache required to run the programs and apps for the device. So it takes around one or two minutes for the device to start-up completely. So just wait for that duration. Then enjoy my kernel :D
Even then, if it is lagging. it is because of your phone. Try clearing cache from recovery and uninstall some unnecessary apps.

Q3) When will you add feature X?
Ans: Ill add them as soon as possible. If you need a feature, you can post that in the feature requests section, or even quote me here! But due to studies, it would require some time.

Q4) Can I use this kernel in my custom ROM?
Ans: You should seek my permission for that. Ask me on Facebook. I may reply fast. Here is my Facebook account: Neil Agarwal

Q5) I am facing white screen! Please help!
Ans: If you face the white screen error, update to latest version of the stock ROM. Then flash the kernel. If you have any other problems, you can quote me here! :D

Q6) I am not able to connect to my PC! Gimme a solution :p
Ans: These are the steps to solve the problem:

  • Open your Dialer App
    [*]Enter: *#0808#
    [*]A menu will now pop up
    [*]Select MTP+ADB And Select OK!

Q7) I am not getting signal! I just can see Emergency calls only! Please help!
Ans: This is because you have lost your EFS folder. Your Internal SD Card might not work. Your Lock Screen might not work. When you press the power button for a short time, your phone may turn off directly. You may view yellow text on your screen. OK. Enough of info. Now, The Fix:
  • Go Here
  • Enjoy!
  • If it still does not work, Feel free to contact me! :D
