Standby time is excellent!!! Thank you for giving this to the Exynos.
Although screen on time didn't see much improvement
I noticed when attaching to a fast charger it says "advanced charging" not "fast charging". Anybody experiencing this as well?

Ok so to be clear on this - this issue occurs *only* with BeastMode kernel. If I flash the stock kernel it works again until I flash BeastMode again at which point it stops working once more.

So yes - in short: this is likely not *caused* by the kernel but is almost certainly an issue triggered by something in the kernel.
Just as you said ;) Exactly the same issue on same conditions

I tried this kernel and ALEXNDR ROM (N960FXXS2ARJ4_DevBase_v5.9.zip, kernel is 4.9.59 I think), and can not pass lock screen after reboot. It keeps asking me enter passcode to unlock, even I type it right. Any comments or suggestions? Thanks.

Such kind of glitch I have observed with stock kernel too, simply force reboot (keep holding power +vol down) should fix issue, if not then something wrong.

I think I tried once or twice forcing it reboot but no success. Then I went back to TWRP, restore clean ALEXNDR ROM, disable screen lock, and install the kernel again. Everything looks fine now, havent tried much things yet though.

By the way, how do I access features of this kernel (overclock, CPU speed etc)?

Looks like something wrong with the screenlock password. I tried to enable screen lock and it kept asking me password again.

try with a pattern just to see if that also is affected.
Thanks for suggestion. Here is the report
- Swipe works fine
- Pattern: I can set pattern, but it does not applied to screen lock; even I set it at Pattern, it is still Swipe
- PIN/Password: can not pass the 2nd PIN/Password check, keep asking me to enter it again (even with the correct one)
Anybody has any other suggestions?

Thanks,

-Fixed fast charging toggle not taking effect.
-Re-enabled a few SEC_DEBUG entries
May I know why Big cores is stuck at 2002Mhz rather than its default speed? which is 2704Mhz? it will allow me to go under 2002Mhz but it won't allow me to go over 2002Mhz... :) it simply resets to 2002Mhz even if I choosed 2106Mhz...

I'm using MTweaks as you said previously it is supported .. so... :rolleyes: what should I do to fix it if possible?

Thank you for giving us this kernel :)
