note for using battery charging control
DO A EFS backup FIRST

Hi mate, long time no see. After flash this kernel for noble rom v3.4 FVH1, my device get lost root
How to fix it? Thanks.why patch with v23 instead of v25.2 ? using fvc2 boot.img during v25.2 patching process = bootloop, flashing v23 patched = no root, patching either download with v25.2 = bootloop when img is flashed

there will be a update to address a battery control problem, which will report as fully charged when max charge is reached, and the "since last charge" stats under battery usage will be cleared as usual as if charged to 100%

16Hi all,
It's ME again, being inactive for a few years due to my health conditions since Android Marshmallow! Today I would like to present you something I wanted for so long... an updated kernel for One UI 2.5! To be honest, I knew there were a lot of changes since MM, but not until these days I realized how troublesome they are, including rooting a device these days!! ( just rooted my N960F/DS running stock pie for more than a year )
OK, here we go!!
This is an update to the BeastMode Kernel vR154 originally developed by @freeza and patched with latest Samsung One UI 2.5 kernel sources.
Some of the features from R154 include:
- enforcing kernel (switchable between enforcing/permissive)
- cpu/gpu oc
- dt2w (double tap to wake)
- wireguard support
However, due to my health conditions, I cannot spend too much time to update this kernel everyday although I am jobless, nor to have frequent updates as what @freeza did to his BeastMode Kernel. So please don't expect things will come very often. Thank you
Special notes for BeastMode Kernel v2 initial release:
- in the initial release (v2.02) there is no fix nor new feature added to the BeastMode Kernel vR154, as it servers as an update for new One UI 2.5 ROMs released by Samsung only
- for existing features, problems or solutions, please visit the original BeastMode Kernel thread by @freeza
- new features will be added in later releases
BeastMode Kernel v2:
- built with EVA GCC 12 and Proton Clang 13.0.0
- for cts profile/safetynet fix, please install the Universal SafetyNet Fix by @kdrag0n
Planned features:
- more IO schedulers
- more governors
- OC/UV (partially done)
- f2fs (DONE!)

.5ok guys, sorry to keep you waiting so long
due to the latest linux kernel upstreams being applied together with those uv introduced before, we faced some problems with the artifacts. they are not major problem tbh but who knows. it will be a disaster for me to redo the changes again and again if it becomes a serious problem
i had to decide whether we keep the uv or continue with the upstream. and after many tests i decided to ditch those kernel patches, at least for now
i will then continue what i wanted to do with this kernel
btw, the release build is ready, but i want to wait for the latest fuj2 patches from samsung as i dont want to release another build shortly after this one. i will send them an email later
anyway, we will have some improvements this time again! so stay tuned!
thanks
edit
here's a teaser from my hard working tester @TechNoobForSale. thanks so much for your time and efforts3
u mean 2.04m?
i have did some tests today and yes, 2.02 is the fastest one, it was the original one without any "enhancements" in other aspects like cpu/gpu overclocking. it is not unusual that these enchancements can be beaten by the one without in terms of performance. it all depends on the usage, and more importantly everthing comes with a price. so you may find it at stock max speed outperforms an overclocked cpu due to the heat generated (which trigger the mechanism to lower the cpu freq as to cool it down). eg a 10 seconds task running with 2000Mhz may be better than 3 seconds with 2400mHz plus 7 seconds with 1700Mhz. you see what i mean? of coz, once again, it depends on the usage and the way of using it like benchmarking or daily use
anyway, thanks for your feedbacks, as well as others. without you guys' feedback i couldnt discover the bugs myself
also, i may consider to make an extreme version, which will be rebased on 2.02 with FUF5 but without any unneccessary changes for those who focus more on the speed due to different usage patterns if there are demands for it. but in general, 2.02 is still working fine with FUF5 except samsung account login issues for some users i believe
on the other hand, i will continue to cherry pick some useful changes to optimize it in general for the main stream version
thanks3EDIT 20210804
a more aggressive gpu voltage settings is postedhereawaiting a fix
BM-Kernel-v2.04m released
20210726 - v2.04m
- compatible with FUF5 (** may have problems if you use lockscreen or samsung account with possible fix here. ALWAYS do a full backup first)
- overclocked: cpu little to 2002000Mhz, gpu to 598000Mhz
- undervoltaged: cpu/memory
- support gpu under voltage
- linux upstreamed to 4.9.250
- cherry picked some kernel tweaks
- for undervolting the gpu, you may refer to my initial safe settings below and adjust them by yourself. there are still rooms to undervolt, but it is suggested you do it bit by bit, and one by one and test the new voltage before next
