Incredible :) this is the extra boot my tablet needs, i'm using kasper's omni rom and it has always been extremely smooth, now with a lower ram usage and some tweaks, it's even better ! :) thank you!

I had the same issue and had to re-flash the rom. Looking at the file, it looks to be for CM based rome only.

Most if not all modern aosp Roms like aokp, pacman, and others use the same kernel source. I am using a cm10.2 based rom on my tablet but, a kernel should not effect superuser. What errors are you getting? Have you tried updating Superuser or supersu which ever one is installed?

When I tried to run Titanium Backup, but it kept telling me that it did not have root.
I tried installing and updating each of the Superuser and SuperSU separately without success. When I re-flashed the PAC 4.3 rom, things went back to normal.

Nope, i have no issues at all, flashed it and works perfect since day one, still using same ROM and this kernel, it's just perfect for me like it is now :)

I think I must have had some other issue. I had to do a wipe and re install and now everything works great.

    I'm flashing it too... In a few days I'll let you know how it works with a P4 running kasper_h Infamous PAC ROM.
    Thank you in advance for your work!
    Any worries if I use kasper_h TWRP recovery?

    Nope.

    Found a problem. Reboot doesn't work. I'm guessing its because of the linaro toolchain since kasper's infamous kernel had this issue too when he compiled it with linaro toolchain.

    I added a link in the op. Please test and confirm all is well.

    I could make one. Just will need a willing tester.

    I can test it. :)
