Alright guys, the time has come... I'm proud to finally present my cake the newest rease of the Werewolf kernel :)

It's been a long time since the last release, a lot has happened. But this project never was dead, just paused due to the fact that I was ill for some time, had a lot of work to do, as I became a Mod in the meantime, we made our own CM using grouper blobs, new ROMs found their ways to our device,...
But after all, I'm back on track and this project is as alive as it should be ;)

So, this version isn't just another update/release for me. Exactly 1 year ago, about this time, I uploaded the initial version, not knowing what would happen. Would it be liked, would it be hated, would it be ignored? I always said that this is my own kernel and everything I do, I do it for me. But well, I guess this isn't that true anymore :D Even though I personally didn't need some stuff, I did include it due to requests from you. Best example would be the runnable_threads gov. My tester (many many thanks to him :) ) @FunkyRasta had the idea to keep the gov from using many cores at low freqs, he suggested it, I included it :D Having this in mind, I will rephrase the sentence to "It is our kernel..." ;)

So, thank you guys for one heck of a year and all the joy it brought. :)

Alright, let's cut the crap and talk about the kernel :D

It's a quite big update, with a lots of changes. For details, please take a look at my github. A small summary is available as usual in the 2nd post and here :p

Code:
 - Enabled WiFi Ad-Hoc
  - Reverted the GPU unlink
  - Volume gains
  - CM upstream patches
  - GPU driver updates
  - General CPU and CPUQuiet tweaks
  - Modified runnable_threads gov to use less cores at low freqs (--> better battery)
  - Fixed booting into bootloader (reboot bootloader and reboot oem-unlock is the same now)
  - Added support for OUYA Wireless Bluetooth Controller
  - Fixed double-press-power from kernel-side 
  - Improved proximity sensor
  - SmartDimmer enabled
  - 5GHz WiFi support
  - Various network changes
  - Updated gaming gov
Enjoy! :)

Tried it a few minutes ago on latest Beanstalk. Booted properly and everything seemed ok but after looking in Trickster Mod I saw that on interactive governor and runnable/userspace it got stuck on all 4 cores with 1500 MHz and got too hot to grab a log.

Rebooted and instantly switched to powersave and after that to conservative and they both got stuck with one core on 102 MHz. Lagged quite a bit as you could imagine so I rebooted a third time and set smartass v2, smartmax and Wheatley and they got stuck on 1500 MHz on 4 cores as well.

Cache and Dalvik Cache wiped prior and after flashing your kernel.

Don't really know what is causing this. Will try to get a log next time (without trickster mod) but for now I need my device for work/school.

Hope the fault is on my end as I loved this kernel back in 2013 :)

So far the v9 seems to be working alright. I tried a few games and performance-wise they were all pretty smooth! My battery seems to be getting drained pretty quickly, but that might be because of the heavy usage. If I have something more specific, I'll report it.

Also, does MHL work correctly?
EDIT: For me it didn't...
