How to use
Please read How to use Semaphore JB guide for information about the features

In order to load various modules of the kernel and enable or disable features use Semaphore Manager or use HM.Carbide's Semaphore Script Manager application. It automatically copies and runs the respective scripts from /res/scripts to /system/etc/init.d directory.
Custom Voltage may be configured with Voltage control or similar applications.

For more information check the semaphore kernel website: www.semaphore.gr

Thanks everybody for your words and your support!
Your huge support and interest about Semaphore makes me want to try even more for something better.

Maybe it's not obvious, but I'm working hard on this project. Last weeks, I try more to expand my knowledge and contribute to Linux kernel.
As I said, this may not have immediate affect in Semaphore versions. But I hope for some results in near future.

Semaphore is here. I'm here. Semaphore will not stop. I will try to contribute to Linux kernel, through this project. Maybe using other device, but with the same goals.

Thanks again for everything.
