new build 20160727

- misc. changes, mostly related to memory management

---> Download <---

for those who don't know, please don't flash this kernel on my ROM builds (Tesla, Validus, Dirty Unicorns) as Wi-Fi won't work.
this kernel update will be in next version of all those ROMs.
Mentor, will you please push the changes to Github?
Thank you :)

Bug: Kernel 2016-07-27 on CM13 2016-07-30 - Audio: play on repro-speaker...
App: MX Player: no sound
App: Music Speed Changer: sound ok
Apps used different sound driver (maybe HAL, or device).
Music Speed Changer plaing audio directly... If installed anyone effectizer on other ROM (Tested on 5.1.1, Equalizer, V4A, etc.) playing without effects. MX Player and many soft plaing with effects.

Tunables for reducing minimal brightness:

Code:
### Reduce backlight brightness
## to revert to default - enter 0

echo "8" > /sys/module/leds_lm3533_ng/parameters/lm3533_bl_reduction;

## values of brightness, lower than lm3533_bl_brightness_min, are being decreased by lm3533_bl_reduction

echo "30" > /sys/module/leds_lm3533_ng/parameters/lm3533_bl_brightness_min;
that "Script" work only when have airless kernel flashed

No, you can't raise the shutdown limit because there isn't a (tunable) variable for that in the kernel. In this (simple) implementation of the thermal driver, the only tunable parameter is throttle threshold temperature.

Eyy m8 ?, i dont even bring it outside (would just shutdown and refuse to boot) just using it at home

He meant on the outer side of the phone :) btw the thermal in this kernel is pretty successful in maintaining normal temperatures by throttling, so you can experiment with the throttle threshold to avoid shutdowns. I keep it around 65-67C and the default is 65, with that value it has never shut down for me, goes at maximum 70-75C (no heavy gaming tho but again it will throttle similarly)
