Note: I am not the developer of this project, just sharing it here for xda users with the developer's(@theradcolor)permission.

RAD Kernel is a custom linux kernel for whyred (Redmi Note 5 Pro/AI) that contains all features you need and aims for best balance between performance and battery.

Flashing

Make sure you take a backup of your current Kernel before flashing! (I'm not taking responsibility for any damage)
If you installed a custom Kernel before please flash the boot.img of the currently installed ROM or dirty flash the ROM.
Then just flash the zip file through recovery, Happy Flashing!

Thanks for sharing, we need more projects that is available on telegram to be present here on XDA.

Great performance

Hi what's the difference between eas and hmp?

 

[Kousei Arima]

Hi what's the difference between eas and hmp?

HMP is overall performance oriented, eas more battery friendly, in theory Atleast, both r almost same practically, but since we got official energy model from qcom, at least for whyred now eas gives more battery backup than hmp. For details u can read here :

Thanks,is it for Android 10 too?

Hey guys!
I have a pretty bad noob question since I don't know much about flashing kernels. What is the difference between new vs old camera blobs and when should you flash them. I'm using Pixel Experience 10 for my whyred. Thank you!

U can Google "blobs in Android development " but that might be a bit hard to understand, idk which blobs PE uses, but try flashing new blob kernel, if ur flashlight and camera don't work, just flash old blobs.... No performance difference or anything like that, just compatibility difference between new n old blobs

The best kernel for Miui 11, thank you for making this, I was very helped..
miui 11 is very bad for gaming before i use this kernel, i use other kernel like ice cold and kangarooX but i have ram problem so make very lag when multitasking and ram full usage.

Xiaomi.eu 20.3.26 miui 11 not work- eas ZIP old\newcam OC(check 1 and 2) profile and stay on boot logo and restart? Can fix? I looking OC Kernel long time

as said in description, it might or might not work on miui.. miui is new blobs.. dunno abt oc but normal eas working... latest miui version dunno.. miui not officially supported cuz no testers, u wanna be a tester u can join the support grp on. telegram

 

[iliyas10]

Does it support fast charging.. and which kernel manager best for this kernel
