Big Ups To spegelius

First of all I'd like to give big thanks to spegelius for his amazing work on the cm12 kernel!!
Using it on my daily driver and no hiccups yet what so ever.

Everything is perfect!! Only an LED issue at boot but that's cosmetic and easily fixed.

Could i please just request one thing.

WE ARE ALL WAITING DESPERATELY FOR YOUR TW 5.0.1 KERNEL.
TW is pretty shoddy without your FAST CHARGE or temp throttling to save battery.

PLEEEEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE THIS HAPPEN , i will forever be in your debt aha

THANK YOU spegelius

Hey guys, I'm having problems with this kernel my phone doesn't boot up it just gets stuck at the CM logo where there is that blue alien looking guy.
Im using a GT-I9295 with running cm-12.1-20150719-NIGHTLY-jactivelte ROM, I had no problems with it except battery drain and inactive sensors so I decided that flashing a custom kernel might help.
So today I decided to download the latest CM12.1 nightly for my S4 Active (cm-12.1-20150720-NIGHTLY-jactivelte) and the latest compatible custom kernel (KT-SGS4-LP5.0-AOSP-eur-02.15.2015).
I flashed my phone with adb as follows:
<procedure>
reboot to recovery (CWM-based recovery v6.0.3.5)
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
advanced -> wipe dalvik cache
install zip -> install zip from sideload -> adb sideload cm-12.1-20150720-NIGHTLY-jactivelte.zip
install zip -> install zip from sideload -> adb sideload gapps-5.1.x-20150404-minimal-edition-signed.zip
install zip -> install zip from sideload -> adb sideload KT-SGS4-LP5.0-AOSP-eur-02.15.2015.zip
reboot system now
fix permissions -> yes
</procedure>
now my phone doesn't boot up as I initially stated, it only shows me the CM logo and get stuck there, what did I do wrong?
Any comments/suggestions/tips/corrections is much appreciated!
Thanks!
