P2 has less devs,seriously?? Shocking!!
And yes you are the first who understood why custom kernels is needed.
No Custom Kernels!!

Yea less devs... If you're new to this forum, please familiarise yourself with it...
As of now, only one Dev is working on a custom ROM... And that too thanks to @celoxocis
Compared to other devices the Dev count is a less.
Look... i have two devices, and the other is for the Zenfone Max. Customs rom are there but none has been updated for a while except for AIM rom.. which so happens to been ported to this device from the Zen Max. Yes...they have a Kernel Dev but even he is taking a long time to fix things and add features but he cannot add OC to the CPU to it since it not safe (however the GPU is overclocked).
So why would this device need to go above 2Ghz, that makes no sense.. People there don't get riled up like you do because they respect the Kernel Dev handling the project. You should too respect the higher Senior Devs and stop wasting energy arguing with people here.
Yes.. a Kernel Dev is needed but the majority needs a Stable Rom first.. and there is no Kernel Dev here.. so get with the program.

Plz go to page 1 and look who started arguing,even i dont like to argue! Plz understand OC is not my concern,i am talking regarding custom kernel,this foolishness makes argument to take place

Oh and please have a moderator erase this please. It's a waste of time if there is conflict like this.

I don't choose sides... but you have to understand.. like the new dev we donated money to.. we most likely have to do the same thing for a recognized kernel dev too unless someone steps in. Until the recognized dev completes his job, i think that would be the time when everyone can start talking about possibly having someone to make a custom kernel. You should wait too before making a thread like this. It's still to early.

@The Flash plz delete the whole thread or else many would come and argue, only few wisemen here understand the topic, others take it as a debate.
Do you even know who you are arguing with? Celoxcis is the one who made TWRP official for our devices. You are the kid here.. please shut up before you embarrass yourself anymore.
There's no space for more argument here, i dint even knw who he was, the argument was only on the basis of his arguing skills. If he is a dev,that cant stop me frm arguing wid him.
Topic is over now,no need to post on this thread anymore
The simple answer of your questions is that nobody created a custom kernel.FIRST OF ALL I AM NOT TELLING ANYONE,"GET ME A KERNEL WITH SO AND SO FEATURES IN A WEEK"
NO ONE HERE AT XDA IS ANYONE'S SERVANT!!!
Its just a question and those having reasons can discuss(dont ARGUE,i am better at it)
There's some ROM development for Lenovo P2,but there is not even a single custom kernel development for this device. I would love to see some kernels with features like OC, voltage controls and many more... Would like to know why there's not even a single kernel for P2 on xda.

First of all,you read the post just b4 ur post....talking bout homework,have u ever done that??
So obviously you have no idea what you are saying, you think OC solves everything. This device doesn't need to exceed more than 2Ghz.First of all,you read the post just b4 ur post....talking bout homework,have u ever done that??
I've been testing more devices than you can handle and if you want to OC and kill-off your device, make your own kernel. Kernel developers will not take OC into consideration. Voltage controls, perhaps.. "Many will not know how to use it and therefore will mess up their device". That is a quote from a kernel developer for the Asus zenfone max. and i agree with em for any other devices.
The kernel already has enough features for control and battery savings. It doesn't need anymore than that.

with 5100mah and SD625 inside there is no purpose to have Custom kernel. why mess up when there is no purpose of power saving or extra performance, SD625 is balanced and power efficient chip ever.
your old A6000 in first place is crappy phone that even lag with clean Stock rom. so that 2Ghz kernel did wonders for you. here you dont need
Some devs working on lineage base for p2,.once its done we get many roms and fixes like for volte follows, also lenovo can give oreo for p2 bcz of its SD625, their new clean stock software division makeover.....they have Moto z play,Z2 play, Lenovo p2, Moto G5,Moto G5S,. also there are more than 20-30 others with same sd625, so ODM supports this for chip for Oreo, so mostly copy paste,compile,test....alpha,beta,stable time lined works for OEMs. with clean stock makeover more the oreo chances for p2.
Sad thing is lenovo phones everytime takes the hit for low custom development, bcz
1).may be lenovo played a catch up game, here bcz of Redmi note4 [email protected] price,its openness to dev community overtook P2 in devs party.
2).Vibe UI p2 over taken by stock UI poor internal moto M and history of selling phones with SD820, no [email protected] than 160 dollars, now [email protected] rupees to present festival sale+bank [email protected] this kind of dump tatics avoid most existing users from buying lenovo again.
3).Bootloader unlock warranty end terms,(so messing with modem, kernel ends its life, so most dont touch)
4).Poor build, more device lineups, new phone every month, dump and forget policy, 1 or none update policy, no stock to sell no updates policy even hardware is capable..
5). you cant even flash stock fastboot firmware completely on bootloader unlocked devices, i just felt the heat with p2 in the process of fixing no sim error.
now i say, never a lenovo phone...may be i am late, most others are ahead, i think so very less devs on, so slow development.
@Clockers @voltage[email protected]rators @schedulers @Governors
Thing you should do is, just wait for someone to lead or make your own. Remember Overclocking dont make a SD625 to SD835 and act according to that. For p2 i see no point for custom kernel.
And you from A6000, google for Lawnchair.apk, this fluid,fast UI can keep you off for sometime thinking of custom development under stock base and volte for existing custom roms. Thing you need to learn is to use your phone as phone, not as a tech or update toy. Do messup, every phone is not like A6000.
THE END.

Guys, enough. The discussion was closed long back. Why bring it up again!?
Oh, and to those who think we don't need custom kernals, please think twice. A simple feature like DT2W is kernal based. Colour calibration is kernal based. Sounds are kernal based. It's not just about OC and governors. There are lot more which we don't really require now, but once we get a custom ROM (proper one I mean) those who said custom kernals are useless, will be the first to ask for one.

Someone who read that i myself posted that the discussion is over
And finally custom kernel is much more than oc!

I agree with you,, custom roms does not always means OC,,i dont know why everyone again and again arguing with OP about OC, when he mentioned that he does not want custom kernel for oc the device,,i want an custom kernel for color calibration.,after we get an stable los hope someone will develop an custom kernel for device.:good:

Custom kernel for DAC
I wish one day someone comes up with a custom kernel to support USB DAC on P2
I wish one day someone comes up with a custom kernel to support USB DAC on P2
THIS IS WHY SOME USERS have low battey life off about 6/8h of SOT
stock kernel has the 1689mhz bug!! you all have this bug even if you don't know it is active.......
WHY? because it does not corrupt the correct deep sleep, but when u use the phone on light tasks, you wil never reach the base 652mhz of this soc because you are stuck with 1689mhz of MIN cpu freq.
the bad valuse that gives this error is the VDD value found in kernel adiutor under "thermal" menu.
to fix this you have to download it https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.kslabs.scheduler
and set it like my screenshot if you want to "fix" the VDD value to 0 ( off) every 1 hour

Probably once we get a stable enough rom, the Devs might work on the kernel
