What is AOKP?
AOKP stands for Android Open Kang Project. It is a custom ROM distribution for several high-end Android devices. The name is a play on the word kang and AOSP (Android Open Source Project). The name was sort of a joke, but it just stuck, just like our infatuation with unicorns.

We fork the source code of Android that Google puts out in the open with every major version release, and we then add the magical unicorn bytes (read: we add some of the coolest features that are both useful and make your ROM awesome).

With AOKP, you can generally do a lot more with your device than what you could do with the original firmware that came installed on it.

Why AOKP ?
We were waiting for when you’d ask this.

There are a variety of reasons why a hilly billy Android user, on a bright sunny day, would suddenly start using AOKP and loving it.

For one, AOKP is lightweight. Most OEMs provide a heavy UI layer over Android and have loads of bloatware (i.e. apps that not everyone use every day, but you cannot remove because they’re “baked in” by default). Since AOKP is built upon vanilla Android source, it has neither of the above.

Also AOKP has features that you will not find on your stock firmware. You can have a multitude of toggles to quickly flip a lot of your phone’s settings right at your fingertips, or you can launch apps quickly from any screen using our Ribbons.

You can change almost each and every aspect of the OS, from its looks to the way it functions, with total freedom. And did we tell you, AOKP helps you make tacos?

I'm a bit confused reading the title:
Kernel LOS-E.X.-T.M8
What does this stand for? At a first glance, it seems to be a "normal" kernel without any tweaking options.
Exactly the opposite: I picked the LOS kernel, added with all ElementalX optimizations and features and some commit from Team-M8.
Here explained the title (hope!). If you can wait some hour for next build (http://build.aokp.co/dibs/) it will have all the latest upgrades and updates.
You can take a look in detail here: https://github.com/AOKP/kernel_htc_msm8974/commits/nougat
Thanks.

Thanks.
Can I use the img in any other rom?
I see now that the movement requirement for DT2W is gone! :D
It's so awesome!

May i ask if you also added the wake up gestures, especially the "swipe up to wake" when the screen is off?
That one is missing in almost all nougat roms...
On next build S2W is enabled, together with other features. I'll do a list in OP.

Have some doubt about usability of mine kernel img on other rom... but you can try on other LOS based.
Yep, I hate HTC movement require. Now no more needed, thanks elementalX.

Does substratum work in this rom?
Sent from my htc_m8 using XDA Labs
Completely, and no root require.

Kernel breaks magisk functionality
AOKP didn't remove SU. We like open source stuff.

Nice ROM, very smooth, thanks. But I miss normal night mode (with scheduler as in cypherOS) instead LiveDisplay and Selinux permissive support in kernel (for ARISE modules using, e.g. AM3D).
Thanks. I'll take a look for your requests.
