[Kernel] Deported / Stockish [North America (Canadian) Discussion]

[twistedumbrella]

This is the support thread for the North America (Canadian) variant of the StarKissed Note 4 kernel.

This kernel currently supports all North American carriers through the use of specialized release packages that will detect your device version and make appropriate adjustments.

@CheesyNutz

For recommended settings, what are you looking to achieve? Battery life, performance, or balanced?

battery life/balance would be good

 

[twistedumbrella]

battery life/balance would be good

I've heard setting a max of 2.5, governor yankeractive, and scheduler row seems pretty middle of the road. Intellidemand is usually good to sway that towards better battery.

Intellidemand reboots my phone

Intellidemand reboots my phone

Then I would stick to yankeractive for now.

Flashed trltecan kernel img 11/06 with Flashify - No issues on Boot - So far so good - Running as is for the time being.

Thanks Twistedumbrella

I did away with it years ago. I have 3 cans of Starbucks doubleshot waiting to poison my blood, but thanks.

Dentist: you used to drink a lot of soda when you were younger, didn't you?
Patient: I drank a lot of soda yesterday. When I was younger, I could melt steel with my pee. I cut back.

Twisted - Any thoughts on using Intelliplug instead of MP Decision?
Also curious about the default Read Ahead value being what it is..

No issues with stability - The kernel is Rock Solid - Thanks!

One observation - The CPU spends a significant amount of time running at 1497Mhz - Is that intended?

I use Intelli for testing but I'm not sure of the real advantage beyond being configurable.

Not intentional but odd

I don't know if I'm reading this incorrectly - Or if cpu Scaling is altogether a different issue - but are we supposed to edit the Build.prop as in the screen shot below - And is this the reason why cpu managers are not able to get the settings to stick? 1497MHz seems to be the issue

I apologize for posting a similar post in the main thread

Unrelated.

Ok Thanks - Unrelated - But should we be editing the build.prop as in the screen shot anyway?

I tried the Deported version 11-13-2014 and I just get a boot loop. Tried both from Flashify and from Recovery using the image and also Auto install. Stockish installed alright though. Now I can give FireKatV4 a try at least.

Anything I can offer to try to figure out why the Deported version just boot loops? SM-N910W8 btw.

It's been reported. It should be fixed in the next build. I wouldn't recommend it with FireKat, though. They're very adamant about using the stock kernel.

Cool sounds good, I'm looking forward to it. I'll stick with stockish for now but when the "fixed" build comes out I'll at least give it a shot just to see how it does. I just got FireKat up and running so I need some time to get everything set up again anyway.

Hi there,
11-17 can: neither tritle (thru TWRP), nor *.IMG (thru Flashify) goes into my device at all.
11-16 is OK.

BTW, thanks for your work for Arcadia ROM, I use it now.
