new touch driver was ported to this kernel

overclocked?

overclocked?

this kernel is a base for other projects and will be focused on code cleanup and stability
overclock on a mobile device with limited battery is just a waste of energy

I get that... Now our phones can handle stuff... But its just a matter of time before they can't... And since we can't afford to buy new devices ever so often, and since it's good to have choice, I kindly request to please allow overclocking and undervolting. Anyways its great to finally see support from the different devs. Thanks

instead of adding ov, uc we will implement it in a clean way
other devs can fork and "optimize" the kernel

Oh, and one important thing, does it work on MSM8228 devices aswell ? or just 8226? 8228 is the dual sim model in this forum's context

hi All

Busy weeks ....months ...

Progress so far
- unified 3.4 kernel is stable for daily use and community tweaking

As some of you have already seen we have started work on comunity 3.10 unified kernel
This kernel is not finished and not stable but is an invitation for developers to joyn, test and improve a kernel built "by community for community"
