Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the Kernel in its current state supports 4.4.4. We're currently waiting on the update from jeronqui that will bring 4.4.4 support and .233 blobs framework. He hinted towards progress almost a month+ back but has since not responded sooo.... Here's hoping he's still working on it. :(

Oh sorry for that i didn't realise this kernel doesn't support 4.4 :silly:

Does anyone know what's happening with this kernel? I'm seriously considering going back to CM10.2 just to get a taste of MEOW again! I know this sort of thing should be posted in the Q&A but that thread doesn't look overly active with just 2 replies and I figured we'd get a faster reply on here than there

Thanks in Advance

Meow is outdated with sources etc... And not worth downgrading just to try it I mean we have L in the works and pretty much fully working thanks to Thomas and Pabx

I'm not gone and I still have the device. I borrowed it to a friend who's phone is broken. And some real life stuff is eating all my spare time. But when I get the time, I will definitely pick up development of this kernel again. This MEOW never dies :)

Yes, if I have time I definitely will. And since the new unified kernel, it's even easier to support more devices..

I don't know if you're active anymore, but I think a lot of people would really appreciate an updated version of this kernel. :good:

It's sadly not working with CM 12 & 12.1 :crying:

    Well, I was waiting untill CM merged the .569 Sony updates, but it's taking way too long. So I decided to start working on it again and try to fix the issues. I hope to put out an updated version in the coming few days.

    If I can't solved the problem that it's not interchangable between all ROMS, I'll release seperate versions for the different major ROM's

    Please help me compile a list, but I think there are 3 ROM's with different bases:
    - CM11 based ROMS
    - PAC
    - Omni

    So, I'll release 3 different versions for these, and we can see which version fits other ROMS as well.

    But that's just in case :D

    Sorry to have kept you all waiting so long
