Change log and bug tracker

Release 2:
Included parts from jeffsf's hefe kernel
Now has OC/UV option (Works great with setcpu in Gummy)
New bootsplash
Fully integrated Lightning Zap tweaks
Only ROM based init.d tweaks needed. (Might want to remove any kernel based scripts from init.d, i.e. 04sys in Gummy)


Release 1:
Kernel is injected with Lightning Zap (Yep, it's built right into it)
Includeds necessary modules, binaries, libs
Includeds necessary init.d scripts to get the FULL Lightning Zap benefits

Download Links:

SGS4G_LZ_Kernal_r2.zip

Just download the zip, extract it, open /TeamFahQ-sgs4g_lz_kernel-ac3ecd1 and copy/cut all files and folders found inside
Then, in your build directory, navigate to /kernel/samsung/galaxys4gmtd, remove all files and folders in that directory and paste the ones you just copied.

If you just want to build the kernel and you are using the build directory from Team Acid or GummyMutt (source will be completed soon):
In terminal, navigate to your working directory
Type**:
Code:
source build/envsetup.sh
lunch 
make bootimage
Then download the Lightning Zap! Tools to create a flashable cwm package
Just copy/paste boot.img and /system/modules/* into the /system folder, compress with 7z, place on sdcard, reboot to recovery, flash and enjoy.

**NOTE I use my GummyMutt directory to build so this may or may not work for you.

Lol...me first...let me guess...is this ur LZ kernel? hehe...great job Thomas :)

P/s: I am testing it as well and the build.prop is ok (no duplicate scripts ^^) as I added it in by default :p...anw, I am forcing the battery to be drained and seems like it drains not so fast but not slow, too lol...just for the next full recharge to take a look on battery drainage of this :D

It sure is. Thanks for testing man! I made the .zip that I sent you wrong. I had the init.d scripts in the wrong place... and I forgot the sysctl.conf

Minor note...

In the tweak script init.d/04sys
on line 11
Code:
echo ${READ_AHEAD_KB} > /sys/block/mmcblk0/queue/read_ahead_kb
is executed, but the READ_AHEAD_KB value isn't set until line 26
Code:
READ_AHEAD_KB="4096"

Good call... thanks
But it doesn't matter cause later down the script, it sets it anyways... so it is doing the same thing, but I will fix it on the next update

I believe that this is the kernel already included with erikmm's latest build.

Edit: I stand corrected, refer to Thomas.Raines post above

Eollie brought to my attention that this kernel may not function well with slimics... slim is very picking Rom to say the least so if you are on that Rom, i would suggest not using the files lib and bin folder included in this package and see how it works... but it still should be ok to use the init.d scripts, sysctl.conf and boot.img

Can confirm kernel works on cm9 r6 and gummy. Love gummy! Although rom doesnt go down to 100mhz, or not saying it is

I think the not going to 100mhz is a known cm9 thing. I remember seeing ti talked about at some point.

CPUSpy is reporting some 100mhz activity on my set-up (SlimROM with LZ kernel modified as per Thomas's directions - i.e., using only boot.img, bcm4329.ko, and init.d scripts).

    Read OP as it has changed

    Please provide good solid feedback of issues, questions, comments and concerns.
