Congratulations!
And , happy new year!
Thanks for the wonderful kernel!
Now, for a scary question-
Is it possible that further changes in newer Android versions may become incompatible on Nexus 5 and then development will have hurdles?
At the moment no, because N5 doesn't have a Oreo tree, depends what they'll do.
There's some 8.0 changes that don't killl backward compatibilty, 8.1 can be a little harder. Not to mention they may decide use CAF trees, who knows.
N5 has some talented mainteiners, we'll have to wait and see.

So, for any android version, If you get a stable device tree, is it possible for us to recieve this wonderful kernel?
It is related to memory. As soon it reaches ~80% usage it gets laggy. Closing some recent apps frees memory and the phone gets usable again.
I have tried different memory profiles in Adiutor, and agreesive modes (not expected) seems to solve for now the problem. Light modes didn't solve it.

Indeed. I'm sporting Aggressive profile for some time now and its buttery smooth no problems whatsoever.

I guess this might be helpful for you.
hi all, does this work ok with with LOS 14.1? (Nougat)? Can you advise which kernel tweaker is recommended? thanks very much.
Yes. It works awesome and if personally tested by eng.stk
You can use L speed or kernel Adiutor , however l speed is automatic while kernel Adiutor is manual. Try both

DOWNLOAD KERNEL ZIP (no mirrors please)
Warning: If you come from other kernel, you should dirty flash your ROM before flashing blu_sp★rk zip to avoid problems.
Also uninstall or clean data of any kernel control app you're using.
About bugs and troubleshoots: don't bother to post if a log isn't ready or without steps so the behavior can be replicated. Also, I only actively support stock ROM with NO mods whatsoever (apart from root).
No support will be given to custom ROM including N stuff, so don't clutter the thread with it (specially):
- No talking about WiFi and N issues.
- No talking about ROM related and misc N issues.
Also no OT about OTAs, apps, ROM bugs and other userspace stuff. There's threads for it, use them.
This kernel installer modifies your filesystem, backup your boot.img with TWRP if you want to go back to full stock (or you can fastboot boot.img or dirty flash your ROM also)
If you want to use F2FS, do the following (backup your data before attempt this, it will erase all your Data)
- Flash TWRP with f2fs support and flash latest blu_sp★rk zip
- Go to Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Select only Data -> Repair/Format File system -> Change partition type to F2FS
- Go to Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Select only Cache -> Repair/Format File system -> Change partition type to F2FS
- Reboot and profit

All right crew!
Back to the heavyweight jam :angel:
I decided to reopen the thread after some thinking and some nice talks I had with several people.
I do this for fun, so behave and don't make me regret it.
This is for Lollipop 5.1 ROMs only.
The zip uses anykernel installer, this means it uses previously installed ROM kernel Ramdisk.
If already have Code_Blue or ROM default kernel installed just flash over.
If you come from other kernel dirty flash you ROM and flash Code_Blue after.
