Hi guys!
I'm presenting my personal kernel, that started as an addon for Purity ROM, called Purified Kernel.
Now, this project got bigger and has a life of it's own. My nightlies are called Blue Panda and I'm going to share them with you.
All I want is full smoothness, performance and battery on my mako, so I build always with latest Linaro.
Code is based of android-msm-mako-3.4-jb-mr2 plus franco commits and other useful and powerful picks.
Kernel features:
FOR JB 4.2.2: Download Purified.Kernel_r77_mako.zip, flash and profit :highfive:
FOR JB 4.3 [JSS]: Download Purified.Kernel_r153_mako_*.zip, flash and profit :highfive:
FOR JB 4.3 [JWR]: Download Purified.Kernel_r172_mako_*.zip, flash and profit :highfive:
Note: _* stable is GCC 4.7.4 and test is GCC 4.8.2
Download mako_JWRtoJSS_screen_tearing_v1.0_modded_by_eng.stk.zip, make JWR kernel to be JSS ROM compatible :highfive: (hacky and to test)
Download CM10.2 Unofficial Linaro build with Purified Kernel inside :highfive:
CHANGELOG:

Code is based of android-msm-mako-3.4-jb-mr2 plus franco commits and other useful and powerful picks.
Kernel features:
- Build on Lubuntu 13.04 x86_64
- Build with Linaro 13.09 (arm-gnueabi- by @Christopher83)

- Merged Linux 3.4.61+
- Enhanced performance and battery patches
- Several TCP methods (westwoood default)
- Several I/O control (deadline default, better with 1024 buffer, 512 is safe)
- CPU OC with several governors(interactive default, from 192~1836MHz: 348~1512MHz default, 192MHz step on StandBy to save battery)
- MP decision off and thermald custom (use amazing hotplug routines and thermald by @franciscofranco)
- Vibrator Strength tunable (70% default)
- FSYNC on/off and temp limit tunable
- GPU OC up to 533 MHz (128, 200, 320, 400, 487 and 533 MHz max frequency tunable) and BW tweaks
- GPU simple governor by @faux123
- Hotplug and Touch Filter tunable controls (thanks @franciscofranco)
- UV tables (thanks @mathkid95), minimum 650mV (faster chips say thanks)
- Gama Control by @faux123 My own tweaked values based on PA Halfbreed)
- Sweep2wake enabled, unlock/lock screen with gestures (thanks to @show-p1984 and @faux123)
- Faux Sound Control, with In-call and headphone volume controls
- Fast Charge toggle (thanks to @motley)
