[FrozenLord]

Small update to fix some compatibility issues:

Kernel V13:

Working like a charm!
Thank you very much

After ~a week using that kernel I must admit it's pretty awesome! Thanks

 

[ghbuur]

is v12 and v13 only for N?

 

[Phazonclash]

is v12 and v13 only for N?

EDIT: Nevermind, I misread your question

Both work with Nougat. v13 is required though if you want to use phh's SuperUser + Magisk, instead of chainfire's SuperSu

I miss that kernel. Can we expect an update at some point in the*near future?

Do you have anything special on mind which can be added/updated?

(Edit: this is more of a general statement):
This Kernel is pretty "niche" with it's intended purpose of a flicker free implementation, that's why it's only useful for people that are troubled by the flickering.
People that are insensitive to any kind of flicker will most likely only notice the mura defects which gets more highlighted by this implementation.

Thanks to @hasanben35 i found some threads regarding severe display issues:

• dark horizontal lines on the screen
• S7 edge screen problem.! Hardware or software? Video Inside.

Those display issues are caused by the PWM mechanism.

I had a strange problem after flashing Kernel V14:
I'm on SupermanRom 2.2 and flashed your kernel in TWRP. The phone booted fine, but I was not able to unlock my phone with fingerprint or PIN.
