Changelog and Features list
Phenom Kernel Control App
Phenom Kernel has its own control app available for beta testing. Please note that this thread is meant for
kernel discussions only. For app support, please refer to the
Google+ Community
Notice:
I'm willing to accept feature requests. You can post these in the thread.
Features which will
not be implemented at this point:
*
Voltage Control : from my experience in testing various kernels for hammerhead, lowering the voltages for the CPU Frequencies has no visible effect on battery consumption. In fact, I've seen more complaints from users who got kernel panics and soft-reboots as a result from lowering the voltages. At this point, my goal is to focus on stability and therefore this feature won't be implemented, for now.
*
Custom HotPlug kernel drivers : I actually built some kernels which had custom HotPlug drivers which other developers use. The problem was that neither is perfect and could cause instabilities. I have a group of testers which tried these kernels and reported slight performance drops in games and overall UI functionality. Therefore I decided to leave them out from the public releases.
