Selinux is permissive
OptiMax is highly optimized.. Gives lag free performance and ram management. I recommend OptiMax Ofcourse..
Stock permissive is for those who don't want any optimizations and want just stock kernel to be permissive

You're a quick learner, thanks for your awesome effort to make the awesome kernel for us. Hope there would be a lot of mods and customisation coming from you to our J7 ! Please deblot the A7 ported Rom and include all fixes+ your awesome custom Kernel and make an awesome flashable zip for A7 ported Rom for us. For the time being that would be best Rom until the CM 13 and other AOKP roms become stable for us. All the best bro.. :good::laugh:

    Overall great work dude. You're really amazing.

    Sent from my SM-J700M using XDA-Developers mobile app

    Selinux is permissive
    OptiMax is highly optimized.. Gives lag free performance and ram management. I recommend OptiMax Ofcourse..
    Stock permissive is for those who don't want any optimizations and want just stock kernel to be permissive
    5
    Optimax 5.7 Full stable

    Will try and report:good::good::good::good:

    Edit
    Working
    SmartAssV2 and interactive seems to work fine without reboot.
    Battery backup seem to be improved(As for now will confirm tomorrow)

    Bugs
    1. The SD card problem still persists(Its confirmed i tested again with Optimax 4.0 and there was no problem there)
    aAll the apps in SD card cannot be installed(Says Parse error "There was a problem with this package") but the ones in internal storage gets installed without any problem. I reflashed optimax 4.0 and everything works fine again
    Camera and also some other apps can`t write to SD card
    Also when sending file over USB cord to SD card from PC it says "The device has stopped responding" and no file can be sent to SD card
    but file can be sent to internal storage and with Optimax 4.0 every thing works fine
    Also cannot copy files from SD card to internel storage
    And videos and music in SD card cant be played (Tried with both stock and MX Player)

    2. Reboot still occurs tested with conservative,ondemand when screen off automatically(will test with others and report)
    3. Only Frequency two frequency works when in conservative .

    Optimax 5.7 : Optimax 5.7
    changelog :
    Fixed Sdcard successfully, Made kernel permissive.
    most of the new governors work, except for some traditional ones because i havent changed them and were disabled by samsung in the first place.
    Please continue to report working of other governors
    4
    Reserved

    For Future Plans and Changelogs
    4
    new changelog for OptiMax 6.0

    Waiting eagerly for it bro. More power to you :laugh::laugh::good::good::good:

    By the way In V5.7 After charging two times it seems that the charging has become comparatively slow compared to V4

    Core Memory Optimizations
    Low memory killers update
    Remove unstable cpu governors

    Major - ADD F2FS to Kernel!!!
    merge some of the optimizations from sakindia's kernel
    Compile with UberTC 6.0+
    Linux Version Upgrade if it doesnt cause any instability

    I need someone to compile TWRP to support f2fs mounting and formatting! If anyone is experienced, contact me, I will myself look into it later

    releasing by the end of next week!! :D
    after that i'll pause development for few weeks :(
