Been using the ROM and kernel for a couple weeks now. The performance is snappy and battery life is great! No problems on my end apart from a double text receive issue. @travis82 has done some great work on this! :D

On a side note if you guys don't know the model # of your mobiles why the hell are you here on xda flashing software? That sounds like a bricked phone waiting to happen.
Now back to topic, I'll put out a new kernel in the coming days. If the OCT rom is just a cve update I will not release a new rom since the kernel has this patched already since last month.

if u go looking for spec's on 9350 on the web it says it can be either 820 or a 8890. so it probably would of been a good idea when op created this thread to have put which variant this rom was for.

    Doing a lot of work with the GPU today, so far I am happy with the results average about 148k on antutu on a flat stock rom.

    If the kernel improves battery, allows root and performance improvements? I can't wait to get from Eng kernel, please do this.

    **edit**
    I didn't read the first post **face palm** I have g935u.

    LOL no worries. I just added 8 more cve patches that I guess I missed. Im getting 154k+ on benches on this one consistently. You can see my git and see the changes if you wish. It's really really time consuming keeping the kernel up to date security wise. Even if I rebase with new sources that samsung released, they still have cve patches that are not in their sources. Weird I thought.

    But I want this to be the last MM kernel because N is right around the corner anyways. I did a bench with N stock kernel vs my M kernel and I get a hell of a lot better scores and performance vs N. So I bet I have my work cut out for me when N sources drop :crying:

    I'd like to say thanks to this small community for using and giving me feedback on my kernel it helps me to a better job. So again thank you. :good:

    @exynos-S7e-users: CARE! This ROM is only for G9350 (Snapdragon)
    Why is it posted here then?

    can oem unlock with stock HK N firmware too. I'll pass out a few more kernels today/tomorrow but I need 2 testers for each device to contact me to get this done and sorted out. SC-02H I need two of you and SM-G9350 same. Dave has had my kernel running flawless even wifi and fingerprint. So get a hold of me when you are ready so we can finialise these N firmwares.

    NOW I know its a small community soo if I cant get people ready its fine it just means a much MUCH longer wait for stable tricked out roms/kernels.

    I also want to update the twrp builds for these 2 devices too. Anyone ready?

    Also you guys really need to look at daves thread for root and unlock. Enable OEM Unlock, Crom.apk run it to unlock bootloader, download mode and twrp.tar DO NOT AUTO REBOOT. When done pull cable force boot in to recovery and you will be welcomed to TWRP. Flash whatever you want but make sure you are on a Nougat BL and Modem to stop any incompatibility issues.
