1. download the kernel package
2. save it to the sdcard
3. reboot into recovery
4. flash the kernel package using recovery
5. reboot from recovery into system
6. the device should now start booting
7. enjoy the kernel

1. download the kernel image
2. save kernel to the folder containing fastboot binary
3. flash the boot.img using fastboot:
   
   Code:

   fastboot flash boot boot.img

4. reboot from fastboot
   
   Code:

   fastboot reboot

5. the device should now start booting
6. enjoy the kernel

1. before u report any battery drain issues please read this:
   [GUIDE] HOW-TO Properly Evaluate Battery Life and Provide Useful Reports
   
   
2. faux123 has posted very nice info regarding most features

Just a statement regarding kernel source: The Kernel Source is released for all at GITHUB repo given below. BUT Free software does NOT mean no work or time was spent working on it. A lot of my free time has gone into patching/testing this kernel/features integrated in this kernel. If you use my modified kernel source in parts or in its entirety, I kindly ask you mention its origins and to send me a github pull request or PM whenever you find bugs or think you can help improve my kernel hack further. This way the entire community will truly benefit from the spirit of open source.

Thank you !

@DooMLoRD

Could you set the SELinux policy to Permissive by default, (or total disable via fauxclock somehow if at any way easy)
it seems to be more anoying than useful

When ever you get your laptop back
id donate for you to buy a secondary dev laptop but my wallet is as flat as my Z2 xD

My mistake

Also @DooMLoRD any chance zz-move govenour could be added as it's the best govenour I've used especially for battery life or is it no good for us on the z2?

Doomkernel default is the same as stock but this depends on your setup

Given the large amount of features doomkernel has you can opt for performance, battery or both and anything inbetween as well some other features such as gamma control and power suspend

I usualy like to use doomkernels features to my advantage, giving me better performance and battery than stock

Hope this answers your question

What did you change in the charging section that it takes 1 hour longer to charge with Doomkernel v09 than with Yadli Kernel v3 (which is said to be almost stock)

Charging with Doomkernel v09 = 231 Minutes

Charging with YadliKernel v03 = 172 Minutes

Same charging equipment!

Both tests made after a fresh reboot, fauxclock should NOT change settings on boot!

You can't use custom kernels on locked bootloader.. Thats why your friend stuck at bootloop... Unlock bootloader and flash... Let your snapdragon fly!!
