WARNING :

This KERNEL is only for Galaxy S5 Plus LTE-A (SM-G901F/kccat6) version !
You will void your warranty after flashing this ROM (knox @ 0x1)
I'am not responsible of any damage caused to your device after flashing this KERNEL

Some reading..

First of all, I would like to thanks a lot my friend @xdamc2010 for his hard investment about making a kernel finally bootable and stable kernel for our G901F and tells me his solution to finally make this kernel living.
SimpleGX is only looking for simplicity and stability, trying to aim for best battery life, smoothness and performance experience, than a pure stock kernel.
I still don’t qualify myself as of a real developer, but just a basic person with some android/linux knowledge already.
As always, I’m enjoying sharing my contribution here on XDA for free, which taking me a lot of time to release, so if you can offer me a little beer, I will really appreciate that.



This kernel must be only flashed over an official Samsung ROM and not AOSP/AOKP !

Feel free to include my kernel to your ROMs / Threads but please don't forget to inform/ask first via PM and credit me in your original thread.

As precised into first post, this kind of feature won't be included so far because I lik stock colors, and also because I don't have the talent to do this kind of stuff :D

It is planned but I need some friend help to do this, nothing hurry yet, so it will take some weeks/months before I include OC, I guess.

Thanks mate, appreciated! welcome to post #4 :good::cowboy:
About the tips hiding SEANDROID message in red, I prefer to keep it secret for the moment (I respect xdamc2010), as it's experimental and I'am currently having some issues, but maybe later then ;)
cheers'

Note : It seems you are no more obliged to flash matching firmware ramdisk to get the kernel booting, so for exemple you can flash back a v1.0.1 (featuring BOC4 ramdisk) into BOD6 firmware without any problem :good: I go edit first post about this.
