I'm sorry if you did not understand, but what I meant was that you should give it a try and use the Dev Marsh's kernel (I know it's based on bhb27) but I've had problems flashing over the Dev Marsh kernel, more than once. And I'm sorry if you misunderstood. Have a nice day!
I DO understand what you mean --but you are
WRONG. That is what YOU need to understand. Read carefully!
1) DevMarsh does
NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT have a kernel. He has ROMs, period. In both his ROMs he uses the
same basic @bhb27 coded kernel from the CM/LOS tree all the Quark custom ROMs use.
Here, go read this post from his other ROM thread where it's explained and Dev Marsh agrees:
SAME KERNEL IN ALL QUARK ROMS
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71828888&postcount=12
Dev Marsh has never coded a kernel, does not offer a kernel. There's nothing wrong with that. ROM work is different from kernel work. ROM features are different from kernel features. This ROM can be GREAT, while still using the same basic kernel every other Quark dev uses. Dev Marsh merely uses the same kernel every Quark dev is using for every Quark ROM. THAT kernel is actually currently coded by
@bhb27.
So, in your incorrect post , what you are saying is to use the basic
@bhb27 kernel (from CM/LOS tree) that comes with the ROM, and not to use the advanced custom standalone kernel
@bhb27 also offers.
What you probably MEANT was "use the ROM kernel, not @bhb27 super duper advance standalone kernel". But you called it a "Dev Marsh" kernel, which is incorrect.
But even then you are WRONG, if you are saying the ROM kernel will solve the problem you are describing.
2) Your problem is not a kernel issue but a build prop issue. Dev Marsh fixed it on April 11, but you are running an older version of the ROM apparently. This split screen issue appeared in all the Nougat ROMs a few months ago and
@bhb27 fixed it, and all the other ROM devs applied it to their ROMs too at the time. For some reason it has now appeared AGAIN in THIS ROM.
But Dev Marsh released an update on April 11 to fix it. If you are seeing that problem, has nothing to do with kernels but it's because you are running outdated version of this ROM. There's
also a manual fix you can do, if you don't want to re-flash newer version of this ROM right now.

Now having said that, on RR 6.X I run "stock" kernel. I do not run the custom
@bhb27 kernel. Last time I tried for both mine and my wife's phone, hers had random reboots. That was back on Lollipop when we were on CM12.1. Mine phone was fine, hers had problems with that highly customized kernel. Whatever it was, may have been fixed since then! My goodness, over a year ago! And a different Android version. But I still didn't tell people "don't use that kernel!" -- just because one of our two daily phones couldn't handle it. Every phone is different.
Lots of people run @bhb27 kernel and love it. Works great on their phones.
