[Kernel][STOCK/PORT][N910P] [08-25-17] DtuxKernel W07F - 710N - DR4G0N v2.8 (EOL)

[carlosggb]

MM SPRINT DTUX KERNEL W07F v1.7 / 710N v2.6RE / DR4G0N v2.8 (EOL)
[STOCK/PORT] [ENFORCING/PERMISSIVE] [STABILITY] [BALANCE] [SAFETYNET] ​

*** Disclaimer***
You are the solely responsible if something goes wrong. It's Recommended to be on MM PK1 BASEBAND. AND READ CAREFULLY FOR THE INSTALL AND DETAILS.

This is the beginning, DTUX KERNEL, there will be 3 tiers:

-Wolf Tier: Stock alike, no fanciness but with some security patches and Enhancement in the performance and battery department.

-Lion tier: A good volume of tweaks will be available beside what the Wolf tier offers.

Dragon tier AKA 3DDYB022 3D1T10N! : Emotion alike, all the bells and whistles a la Dtux




Install instructions
-Just Flash
-Magisk v13.3 will also be installed
-Get Magisk Manager 5.1.1 HERE if you are using this root method for the first time
-Settings will be reset to default for Kernel Adiutor to prevent boot issues.

-W07F 3D1T10N Has been configured to work with a profiles system with Spectrum Kernel App -(DOWNLOAD HERE)

-710N & DR4G0N 3D1T10N Comes with Dtux Adiutor!!!

Steps for proper Gain Changes with Faux Sound
1-Turn OFF the gain locks if its on (default is OFF)
2-Change the gains to your liking
3-Turn back ON the gain locks to ensure they won't be changed by any other app and to survive reboots if the sound tab applies on boot.

NOTE THAT SPECTRUM IF YOU JUST REBOOTED IT MAY TAKE UP TO 2MIN TO OPEN AS IT APPLIES LAST CHOSEN PROFILE AT BOOT
-KERNEL STARTS IN ENFORCING MODE BY DEFAULT, BREAKING VIPER4ANDROID (IT NEEDS PERMISSIVE), INTALL THIS: The SELinux Toggler
AND GIVE KUDOS TO THE DEV. THE APP WILL TAKE CARE ON EVERY BOOT TO PUT IT AS YOU LAST LEFT IT, WITH AN OPTIONAL NOTIFICATION

Preliminar Guide for Kernel usage

Thanks to @Saber and other relevant posts i'm going to give you a quick resume of what i understood and my personal findings. i'm open to any changes on this.
Take a moment to thank Saber for the wonderful research he has done.
THREAD HERE!!!

The I/O Schedulers are ranked and categorized as it follows:

bfq (#1 MULTITASKING)
cfq (ANDROID DEFAULT) (#2 MULTITASKING)

zen (tied #1 BALANCED) (#2 GAMING)
tripndroid (tied #1 BALANCED)
row (#2 BALANCED)

deadline (#1 GAMING)

noop (#1 BATTERY)
fiops (#2 BATTERY)

sioplus (Under Evaluation)
sio (Under Evaluation)
fifo (Under Evaluation)
vr (Under Evaluation)

CONCLUSION: ZEN and TRIPNDROID are the best

Recommended I/O Read Ahead: 768kb to 1024kb Internal
: 384kb to 512kb External

The newly added CPU Schedulers are ranked and categorized as it follows:

INTERACTIVE (DEFAULT) (Overall = 13)
Performance: ***** (5)
Battery: *** (3)
Compact/stability: ***** (5)

ALUCARD (Overall = 11)
Performance: *** (3)
Battery: ***** (5)
Compact/stability: *** (3)

BARRY_ALLEN (Overall = 11)
Performance: ***** (5)
Battery: *** (3)
Compact/stability: *** (3)

IMPULSE (Overall = 13)
Performance: ***** (5)
Battery: **** (4)
Compact/stability: **** (4)

INTERACTIVEX (Overall = 13)
Performance: ***** (5)
Battery: *** (3)
Compact/stability: *** (5)

LIONHEART (Overall = 10)
Performance: **** (4)
Battery: *** (3)
Compact/stability: *** (3)

PEGASUSQ (Overall = 12)
Performance: **** (4)
Battery: **** (4)
Compact/stability: **** (4)

SMARTASSV2 (Overall = 10)
Performance: **** (4)
Battery: *** (3)
Compact/stability: *** (3)

ZZMOOVE 1.0 BETA7 (Overall = 11)
Performance: **** (4)
Battery: *** (3)
Compact/stability: **** (4)

CONCLUSION: The default Interactive, Impulse and Pegasusq are hard to beat overall, Alucard is the best on Battery without losing noticeable performance and of course Zzmoove which could become the best if fine tuned.

Recommended Hotplug for Balanced/Battery: Alucard then Intelliplug
Recommended Hotplug for Balanced/Performance: MSM Hotplug then MPDecision
Most Stable: MPDecision

Recommended GPU Drivers: msm-adreno-tz with Adreno Idler.

So there you have it!!! Post your recommendations and conclusion too!!!!

 

[wineguy]

Any chance of a ZL version as well?

Definitely. In all ears for what features you guys want

Im not sure if its kernel related probably is on un7 rom after charging to 100% and unplugging i used to go 4-5 hpurs before it drops 1% can something like that be intergrated to this kernel "if" its the part of the kernel , battery life really is all important specially to those with stock battery

Adding ZL to the kernel helps stock batteries that sre starting to give trouble but not too much, this is unfortunately a battery problem.

We the note 4 users need to find a battery of another device that fits, like cameras other mainstream phones, etc, to have a fresher battery with us.

Whoever finds one that fit, please share it with us:good:

 

[aaron74]

Wow, Making New Kernels!! Awesome Bro! Keep up the Great Work!!

 

[Does_It_Matter]

OP - Will this work with the Ultimate Note 7 ROM?

I'm running the Ultimate Note 7 ROM on a PK1 base flash.

 

[carlosggb]

OP - Will this work with the Ultimate Note 7 ROM?

I'm running the Ultimate Note 7 ROM on a PK1 base flash.

Please try it, it should, download the stock kernel from the un7 thread just in case you get into trouble

 

[Does_It_Matter]

Please try it, it should, download the stock kernel from the un7 thread just in case you get into trouble

Yeah, I re-read the first post about testing on UN7

Unfortunately it did not work.

I flashed the new kernel, wiped cache/dalvik - rebooted, waited, waited some more, took a break, came back - still nothing - sat at the Darth Vader boot screen.

Pulled the battery, re-flashed the Beastmode Zerolemon r61 kernel, wiped cache/dalvik, rebooted, and then after a few it came back up with Android is Starting / optimizing.

Looks like a no-go for this on UN7 (and running the PK1 stock pre-flashed before installing UN7)

Thanks for reporting, i will look for the commit missing and add it to it. Stay tuned.

UPDATE! COMPILING NEW VERSION, ADDING THE FOLLOWING COMMITS

-tcp: tweak for speed
-power: quickwakeup: initial driver
-USB: android: Fix memory leak in mass_storage_function_init()
-Added HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS & Added KSM

 

[carlosggb]

V1.1, is a snapshot kernel but stable, help me guys to improve it!

 

[Does_It_Matter]

OK - Flashed the 1.1 fix and UN7 booted up fine!

Here are a couple of screenshots.

One thing of interest, when I booted up with this after flashing from Recovery, it stated SELinux is not enforcing.

Doesn't matter to me but just wondering as first post said it is SELinux Enforcing by default? (Whoops - shows Enforcing in screenshots - ignore!)

Also, my reported battery shows 3220 mah, but it is an 8000mah battery, but it also reported this for Beastmode r61 kernel as well.

 

[ianmb]

Definitely. In all ears for what features you guys want

Voltage control, Sound option like Beastmode kernel, Hotplug options (mp decision, intelliplug...) for starters...lol

 

[carlosggb]

IT'S LIVE!!!

[ianmb]

Booted right up UN7. Quick question...all 4 cores stay online all the time, is that supposed to be that way? Last kernel I was running the cores would go offline/online depending on "usage"

 

[carlosggb]

It shouldn't, clear cache of kernel Adiutor, im adding support to a better app for this kernel. Will upload later.
Please let me know if the cpu cores goes back to nornal
