[Kernel] NavelC - Stock-Lollipop

[engine95]

is proud to present BareCee's
NavelC - Kernel

**READ ** **READ**​

The story.....
This is more of a personal kernel I decided to share. It's was made for those that have the Thermal Mod from HERE And HERE
I was keeping it as stockish as I could. But to bring it here, I decided to add a level of safety by adding intellithermal because I raised the thermal limits. If you just flash this and make no adjustments, it will be just fine WITHOUT the Thermal mod.

See post #2 and #6
This is pretty much a finished kernel. I'll probably only do fixes if needed.

Install insructions:
This should work on any ZVC, and possibly ZVA-B Stock based ROM. Just flash in recovery

How to change profiles with Kernel Aduitor
"CPU"
"CPU Governor tunables"
Scoll down to "profile_number, and select the one you want. (The profile name will show right above it).
I would recommend rebooting when done.

zzmoove profiles
* currently available profiles by ZaneZam and Yank555:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1)'def' -> Default -> will set governor defaults
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(2)'ybat -> Yank Battery -> a very good battery/performance balanced setting -
DEV-NOTE: highly recommended! -
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(3)'ybatext'-> Yank Battery Extreme -> like yank battery but focus on battery saving -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(4)'zzbat' -> ZaneZam Battery -> a more 'harsh' setting strictly focused on battery saving -
DEV-NOTE: might give some lags! -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(5)'zzbatp' -> ZaneZam Battery Plus -> NEW! reworked 'faster' battery setting -
DEV-NOTE: recommended too! -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(6)'zzopt' -> ZaneZam Optimized -> balanced setting with no focus in any direction -
DEV-NOTE: relict from back in the days, even though some people still like it! -
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(7)'zzmod' -> ZaneZam Moderate -> NEW! setting based on 'zzopt' which has mainly (but not strictly only!) 2 cores online -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(8)'zzperf' -> ZaneZam Performance -> all you can get from zzmoove in terms of performance but still has the fast -
down scaling/hotplugging behaving -
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(9)'zzinz' -> ZaneZam InZane -> NEW! based on performance with new insane scaling active. a new experience! -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(10)'zzgame' -> ZaneZam Gaming -> NEW! based on performance with scaling block enabled to avoid cpu overheating during gameplay -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(11)'zzrelax'-> ZaneZam Relax -> NEW! based on moderate (except hotplug settings) with relaxed sleep settings -
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
* NOTE: be aware when setting tuneables which have a 'should' in comments below that giving
* them 'wrong' values can lead to odd hotplug behaving!

Engine, have you done that thermal mod and if so was it worth it? I I've been thinking about doing it with the pad.

I did. I think it's worth it. Or seems to be.
I plan on having this for a while. And if we luck out and get M, that'll be so much the better.
There's really nothing out there that beats this phone, for me. Specs and screen size are perfect.

Because I have the mod, I built the original kernel a little differently. So to bring it here, I added intellithermal for the extra safety.

Yeah I'm with you. There's really nothing out there that is so much better than the G3 it's worth upgrading. I personally think the 801 is better than the 808 & 810 anyway.

Thanks for the input.

Just an FYI.
This kernel runs fine even without the Thermal mod. You just need to watch your CPU temps and settings.

For those without the mod, use the zzmoove profiles having to do with battery. 2-5 are probably best. Lionheart and the upper zzmoove profiles will keep the CPU higher unless you tweak the settings even further.

As for Intellithermal, I'll keep it in, so there will only be the one kernel that I'll work with. The way it's built in gave me concern as to what would happen if it was disabled. But it seems to be working fine. I do not game much so I really haven't stressed the CPU/GPU to see for sure.
If you have the mod, then disable Intellitherm.
If you don't, then enable it and tweak the temps to about 85-90C in it's settings. Or leave it as default. This is just a suggestion.

There is debate over raising the Thermals in the kernel. I raised them 10-15C which is still within the limits of the phone. That's why you need to watch your temps when tweaking this kernel. When I first built it, I didn't use Intellithermal and was getting Antutu scores of 56000. Up from 51000 with stock. I only benchmarked to stress the CPU/GPU. I really don't care about them otherwise.

I'll update the OP in a few, so it doesn't sound like this kernel will melt your face off. It's just me not wanting to trash someones phone.

 

[Macguyver]

I installed the kernel last night, using intellithermal, so far so good. I ordered thermal pads last night to do the mod so I'll do that this week probably. But no issues with the kernel so far, I've done a little gaming today and it didn't get very hot, I didn't change any settings though either.

For the life of me I can't get this kernel to work. It freezes the phone after 1 minute. Tried reflashing, and wiping dalvik/cache. Will be back to stock kernel for a bit. I do love the work you put out engine

Well that's just great. I've never had a problem at all so I'm not sure what to say??
Do you have xposed installed?
Any previous settings from another kernel or tuner?
Maybe try this.... Flash skin's oversharpening fix right after the kernel then reboot? It can't hurt. You need to look for it but I'm pretty sure it's in a few of my threads.

No I don't have xposed installed. I tried resetting data on faux, then deleted it and tried kernel aduitor with no luck. The phone feels extremely laggy on start up and freezes when I open any app. It's not a big deal, I've been happy running the stock kernel from your zvc rom. Just thought I'd try this one out. Thanks again for your work!

I noticed there are a couple settings that are unavailable in KA, like power settings and screen saturation. Is this just me or were they left out of this version?

Not in this one. The power suspend, or undervolting, I'm not sure which one you mean, were extras I didn't feel I needed. As was sound control and kcal. This is just going to stay pretty much as is in the changelog.
If M doesn't happen for us then I'll probably add those later. But I'm trying to hold out for M.
@kmull4 Are you using the zv4/6 rpm,tz partitions? If not, try flashing those. I'm curious if that could be the culprit.
Another option is to install the kernel without the ext sd in. Maybe?

 

[Jairsantana]

I've flash this kernel to a back up that I have and did abfresh install and on both times it has mess up my sdcard to the point that is not accessible at all anyone else with the same issue???

What size card and format is it in?

I haven't had a problem with my 32GB card since flashing the kernel. I actually just got a new 64GB sandisk card yesterday and put it in today and the phone would not recognize it. I got it to work by formatting the card to FAT32. Not sure if its a kernel issue or a hardware issue, never had a problem with exFAT before on this phone.

I have an 128gb card exFAT that I've been using in my phone for a long time and just whenever i flash that kernel I have that issue!!!

exfat and/or cards over 32Gb have always had issues on this phone. I don't think LG supports is as other company's do. In all the Git's I've gone though, everybody is always trying to fix it for this phone. In the forums you'll also see complaints about exfat.

Our phone uses fat32 for the sd. Sometimes we can get lucky and use exfat. I've used both in the year and a half I've had this phone, and in the end, I'm back to fat32. It's the most reliable.

V2 in OP Read/See changelog
It's very different from V1. I like this one better.

You may need to update profile/prl.
Then "Activate this device"
(In its upper right corner there is a menu "Reset cellular data" You may need to do this also.)

Between reworking the clocks, and reception items, which are all in "DTB" it can mess with reception.
I also found Intelliplug is another culprit somehow. And it doesn't touch DTB. Weird

So, just to be clear - if I haven't performed any thermal mod, I should not flash this kernel, correct? I see IntelliThermal removed in v2. Would that make v2 unsafe if I haven't performed any thermal mod?

They will both without the mod. I removed mine just to make sure and its been running fine for 2 days with V2.
I'm just letting stock handle it all and its fine.
