**Sources: Check the GT10.1 A1 kernel thread for beginner friendly V1.9 sources.
Compatibility Information: Check the file names for -stock or -cm for the appropriate version. There is no harm in using a 3G kernel on a WiFi only tablet. This makes the build process less messy. I have a WiFi only tablet and I have no problems with it.

Where the name comes from: This kernel is named after the imaginary character A1. A1 was a character of my creation who was powerful, thought on his feet in battles and drove an electrically powered flying SUV. In my signature is his original hand drawn logo that I drew ~10 years ago, scanned, and used gimp to touch up.
I got a request to port this kernel to the galaxy tab 8.9. Only today, did I realize that the GT8.9 sources are included in the GT10.1 sources I downloaded. Very minimal changes needed to be made to make it GT8.9 compatible. However, I do not own this device and cannot afford a second tablet (even wifi only). I tried my best to follow the same steps used to create the GT10.1 version for the GT8.9. Since I have not even booted this kernel yet, it is marked pre alpha. Feedback is much appreciated. I am compiling this kernel in good faith. You will need to flash back the stock kernel and copy in the files from a stock rom's /system/lib/modules to get back to stock. I recommend you have a stock kernel on hand ready to flash from recovery just in case...
**Sources: look for the corresponding A1 thread the the GT10.1 section. Nothing has changed at all except the .config which is directly modelled after the GT10.1 .config.

Hi...
I am on Overcome now, and wondering if this can be applied on my P7300 ?
If so, should I just flash it over the CWM ?
Please advice.
Thank you.

You need to be running a stock ice cream sandwich rom (Android 4.0). I think overcome rom is honeycomb (Android 3.2). Also remember this is an alpha kernel.
Seems to work fine. I'll play with it for a while before making up my mind about it.
Thanks for doing this for the 8.9.

Stupid question time! I looked at the notes on the 10.1 kernel thread, and didn't see it, but does this kernel have the game pad (usb xbox controller) support built in? I know the factory one doesnt see my controller.

No it doesn't, but I'll look into it. I've looked into it. Should be included in the next version but first... I want to get feedback on the current port before releasing new versions.
Thanks mate for the built, seems to work properly, do you need some specific test,benchmarks or stuffs like that?
Thank you AAcount for porting it, will test it soon.
Kernel works very well, let's hope it improve the battery life.

you are the man
i want to thank you for this kernel voodoo support is important to me because the tab is my car stereo. flashed havent had any issues yet. if you want to add uv support thumbs up ill give it a try. thanks for taking the time to compile even though u dont have a 8.9!
just flashed this on my tab and i can report that all is working just as expected! OCd to 1.4Ghz and noticeably smoother!
really like it!
Thanks a lot for taking the time to port this for us!
A few requests for future versions:
Other Shedulers. On my razr I'm using pegasusq which is great for battery life. when the phone is asleep it shuts down one of the two cores completely! hotplug & hotplugx also do this. not sure if the galaxy tab supports something like that but it would be great!
Undervolting. moar batterrrryyyy arrrrgh
Thanks once again!
did some more testing. youtube HD videos now have a slight lag and hickups that were absent on the stock kernel.
Great ! Thanks a bunch. I will give it a try this evening.
Any chance we get a zip with the stock kernel, in case something goes wrong ?
Good idea. Please put an original kernel zip file.

Awesome, thanks. Saw this thread as I was headed to bed last night. I'll do a nandroid and install to give it a whirl after work. If there are any issues, I know the controller worked under the Galaxian Soup pre-ics kernel, think it was motley's V3, not 100% on the kernel name.
Any chance using this kernel in JB ports ?
This kernel have support for running scripts in /etc/init.d ? (because _motley's lack it).

Thanks a lot pershoot! Great work here
clemsyn - we also now know have a nice template to properly package a kernel in a standalone ZIP updater rather than just reflashing the entire boot partition.
Well done.
Pershoot - am running your kernel currently with Vegan Beta 5.1, everything looking good. Just one issue so far - I get error -18 on installing from Market apps that attempt to install to SD (Angry Birds, Uniwar are the two games I install that always do this).
VSC and I identified this as an issue with CONFIG_BLK_DEV and CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP not being enabled in the code Viewsonic shipped (as well as some related crypto stuff that the loop device needs). See my post with the config file changes (patch for Viewsonic 10.8.2 stock kernel) and the thread in general over at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10168177&postcount=5
Not sure if those config options are enabled in your code base, could also be some of the related crypto options though?
I started with a clean install of Vegan Beta 5.1, freshly re-partitioned SD card last night, and flashed your kernel this morning, so there was no user data or anything else sitting around on my internal SD card to muck up my results.
EDIT: I'm browsing your repo right now and looking at your pershoot_tegra_harmony_android_defconfig file. It looks like you have the CONFIG_BLK_DEV and CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP stuff enabled. Maybe it's the CRYPTO_ZLIB_DEFLATE and CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEFLATE settings? Those were in my patch but not enabled on your kernel, not sure if those are needed. Or CONFIG_BLK_DEV_CRYPTOLOOP, though that wasn't enabled on my kernel either, and from what I just read about that setting I don't think that's it. Maybe you'll see something obvious I'm missing here.
Thanks pershoot. Downloading now.
Rcgabriel, ill look in to it this wknd.
BTW, I have observed that in Quadrant my scores with pershoot's current kernel build average around 2250. With the stock Vegan 5.1beta, my scores average around 2450. Clemsyn's 10.9.7 kernel had a reduction in Quadrant score as well, yielding around a 2300-2350 average, so I suspect a significant portion of this change I observe with pershoot's build is related to the updates in the NVidia source tree. Not certain if Clemsyn has his kernel builds set to the default performance governor or not, so the difference in governor settings might explain the rest of the difference.
I don't really care particularly about the benchmark scores, they are obviously synthetic and not relevant to daily use and the CPU on this thing is so damned fast it doesn't really matter.
But to the extent that they might represent a reduction in performance of user apps they are significant. Still trying to ascertain if this is purely a benchmark issue or if there's any real-world impact. Not sure on that at all. Feels pretty smooth to me.
Obviously, the other side of the performance coin is battery life and I haven't run this kernel enough to assess that.

Is there a versionfor vegan 5.1?
Rchabriel,
Not done yet. I have more tweaks patches to bring in. Possibly some revertions as well. Wanted to get a baseline out. Remember benchmarks are just that, synthetic. Tnt lite flies thus far. Have not tested against vegan at all. Want to test on close to stock and/or cyanogenmod at this point.
Battery is good. About 1%/h idle (no sync).
Clemsyn,
Ok I may have missed over the options (was late when I posted). Thx.
Robz,
Yes.
So if im running Vegan 5.1, and im Not a dev, is there anything I can do with this new release?
Quadrant scores dropped from 3300+ to 2900+ with this kernel. I've got the data2loop patch installed.

Pin your cpu to 1000 and rerun.
I am not using performance (default shipping). The cpu freq. will scale dynamically with load as needed (ondemand is default).
Don't worry too much about synthetic benchmarks. They mean little in real world.

Should work.
does it support encryption (thus it supports enterprise emails -exchange-), otherwise i have to live without it.
first of all, big thanks to roggin and you for releasing this kernel. And of course to all the others who paved the way to this point.
i've created my own custom image tonight which is based on the .22 image (unfortunately the .30 download link was gone). So far it works and i'm happy for now.
But i noticed that the usb connection got interrupted after the screen blanked. I've never noticed this before (it might be that i haven't copied larger files so far, so probably that would happen with the default kernel as well).
Could it be that the power saving code turns off the usb connection ?
Question
how to save "stock kernel"?
I would like try this kernel then maybe swap back to stock?
@richardtrip
Please create stock kernel backup for roll back purpose. Thanks.
Can I flash over my stock acer rom? Or do I need to install a custom rom first?
At the moment I just need all the features this kernel offers.
Thanks

The thread title says this kernel is for stock ROM
Nice work richard, glad to see roggin's kernel get posted with a little overclock action! I am very excited that there is a true open source git going now.
Here is a CWM zip to flash back the stock 3.1 Acer kernel (official release) including the two stock kernel modules (bcm4329.ko and scsi_wait_scan.ko). I have been working on my own custom kernel and first created this so I could flash back to stock 3.1 whenever I wanted to test the differences.
Flash using thor CWM with itsmagic...this does NOT have itsmagic built-in
I still recommend backing up your own system and boot partitions in the latest stable CWM.

A great kernel! We have now a truly open sourced 3.1 kernel that works perfectly with stock 3.1 ROM.
I have also modified roggin's kernel with OC & some cherry picks from other kernel guru including OP's commits.
Quadrant score get over 32xx which is very promising. Thanks again for all the works.
EDIT: One thing I notice is that the speed of obtaining IP address is drastically increased! After opening the wifi tether of my mobile phone, A500 obtains IP address almost instantly! (when comparing with stock kernel)
I just flashed this a few minutes ago. How do you use the native NTFS support?

I'd really like to find out why I only pull off half off that score @ 1.5ghz. Using this kernel and stock 3.1 ota. I used to score alot higher.
Hi richard,
Coooool, nice work, It's what I love to see
Every cool developer can add his nice work to the kernel, and we will get the best kernel here
Thanks
ok i did not get the answer, but i checked on myself: encryption is working, so exchange sync is possible.
excellent.
everything seems to work so far including O/C using setCPU.
using 1408 i got a quadrant score of 2368 (second test, because the first one always gives the wrong result)

Well to clarify, I just did three runs back to back and the highest I got was 2652, which is alot better for 1.5ghz, but a far cry from the 3400-3600 I used to get before 3.1. Oh well no biggie. I'm back on 3.1 stock with the .38 ota update while waiting for Acer to put out something even half as decent as what these XDA dvs release. Looking forward to 3.2 coming down the pipe. Great job on the kernel by the way, I'll more than likely come back to it in a week. Still waiting on somebody to of the gpu like with Xoom tiamat, just for comparison and because I like to push my hardware.
Maybe I have modified to use 400 gpu such that I get over 32xx.
By the way, Acer must have some tweaks to make the stock kernel faster than this one.
Don't be setting too much store in benchmarks, guys. All they do is measure artificial tests and rarely, if ever, have anything to do with real world performance.
Benchmarking is, and always has been, a load of complete cobblers, on any machine.

Hi cq842000,
so you get 3400-3600 in stock 3.1 Acer's kernel ? Or it's in 3.0 kernel ?
Thanks
[REF] ROM, Kernel, Kitchen & Modem List - Galaxy S II (07/04/12) TIME FOR UPDATES!
Hey everyone!
The last ROM List I saw was last updated in July, so I thought I may as well make a new one and keep it updated. However, this includes ROM Kitchens, Kernels and Modems too!
If you find that I've missed anything, something has been updated behind my back, or if you would like your ROM or kernel added to my list, PM me. Anything old or outdated, I haven't included in the list. If it gets updated behind my back and I haven't added it, hit me up with a PM and I'll add it.
BEFORE you even THINK about flashing any of the ROMs, Kernels, or Modems below, read the following guides:
Rawat's EFS Backup guide - This guide will instruct you on how to backup your EFS folder on your phone. This folder contains all the information that is specific to your phone such as the IMEI, MAC Addresses and other sensitive information. The thread goes into more detail about it.
wilk22's Guide to Android and the Galaxy S II - This guide contains a heap of useful information for both the beginner and advanced user. It's a good idea to read this before flashing anything. It will help.
pulser_g2's Galaxy S II FAQ - Name says it all. A lot of frequently asked questions about the Galaxy S II answered in one place.
Hacre's Original Development vs Development - This picture based guide explains the difference between the Original Development and Development sections.

8 freq steps (100MHz to 1600MHz)
3-step GPU frequency levels. Samsung default is 160-267 whereas SiyahKernel default is 160-200-267 which saves power without sacrificing performance.
Auto-root. You can also remove root via ExTweaks app and install it without rebooting your phone again. Auto-root can be disabled as well.
CPU Overclock/Undervolt support (we have two interfaces for that. both of them are defacto standard)
Tweakable vitalij's value (set to 5 as default)
Fixed fuelalert wakelocks
You can completely disable android logger using ExTweaks app
Faster charging for misc and USB modes. There are 3 modes (AC, Misc, USB) and normally last two of them support only slow charging. You can have charging speed of AC by increasing it (especially user while charging in car or using USB port)
Cpu governor optimizations
Gpu voltage, clock and stepcount interfaces (GPU Overclock/Undervolt)
Tegrak's touchmove support.
Brightness curve settings with original panel gamma values. panel values unchanged, so you will get stock colors and will be able to use supercurio's voodoo display app when it is released. brightness modification will only change auto-brightness response.
BLN support both for Samsung and CM9 ROMs (use BLNControl app from the market to enable it)
Better touch sensitivity (especially while charging)
Available CPU Governors: Ondemand (default), Pegasusg (new hotplug aware governor from Samsung), Lulzactive, SmartassV2, Interactive and Conservative governors added

Voodoo louder support (already default in all kernels but people ask it if it is supported)
USB Mass Storage mode is working in CWM Touch Recovery
built-in profile support with default, battery and performance presets (you can change them in CWM Recovery). Even using everything default will save you a lot of battery juice.
Almost everything is configurable such as scheduler features, hotplug thresholds, GPU frequencies, voltages, arm topology modes... and they are configurable via simple and free ExTweaks App from Google Play

I don't mind the least bit and I sincerely hope someone will help updating that list.
Personally I have always found that a forum - such as this (even if this one is not a bad example) have an extremely low signal to noise level. It takes way too much digging to find precisely the information needed. In my personal opinion - wikies are actually better suited for providing information. A great example is this page: http://nookdevs.com/Portal:NookColor which basically contains all information you'd ever need about hacking the Nook Color. I had been googling around for a android hacking wiki but didn't find any - so decided to throw one up. However, I do realize that if I am the only one editing it, it won't ever become anything but my own random notes (which is what it is right now). But with other users helping with the edits it could at least theoretically turn out to be a great source for information.
So - I appreciate that you added it to the list and I sincerely hope someone will pick up the idea and help adding and changing the wiki.
---------- Post added at 10:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 AM ----------
Originally I had configured the wiki to require registration before edit, but in the true wiki spirit I have now disabled that - so anybody can edit it. If that result in too much vandalism I'll just swap it back again.

I've currently listed if its based on official Samsung firmware or CyanogenMod base under the "Base" However there are only three listed so far.. CyanogenMod, MIUI and the letters and numbers for Samsung firmware (XXKG6, XXKH3, etc)
I'll look into adding kernels and features
I might not add ALL features, but some generic ones like Odexed or Deodexed.

Thanks for the threat. Nice info for those who wanted to know custom ROM for SGS2. This should be stick up.
Awesome... subscribed and bookmarked...
Coz of this I've stopped searching and decided on going "insane" (insanity ii)
makes it so much easier to look for a rom in one glance and decide based on a preference; mine being cm7, stripped down.

This would be a great thing to have, and it is what I'll most likely throw into the third post however that is a lot of information. Possibly if it could be slimmed down to only a few lines. Like including only the important bits.

Oxygen ROM
I vaguely remember seeing a thread for the Oxygen ROM somewhere in the s2 forum. That's missing from your list.
Hello there,
I'm looking for a way to mount nfs shares of my NAS and (debian wheezy) server in the filesystem for access of my media files.
I thought for long that it would be the most natural thing to do for my (linux based) mobile devices in a linux server environment, but it seems I'm far off.
So far I have been unable to mount these nfs shares of mine to the Nexus 7 (grouper) device running a Carbon ROM 4.4.2 Nightly Build from march this year (CARBON...20140302-0433.zip) with CifsManager, most likely due to its lack of kernel support (version 3.1.10--g90cc2cb1 bigshotrob...).
May one of you recommend a kernel that supports nfs, cifs and utf-8 for this build? I restrain from updating it as it is running smoothly and without problems (Remember? Never change a...) and I don't like to invest much time for the reconfiguration and other related stuff.
I know there is M-Kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168787) out there that claims to have exactly the requested support and compliance to the CarbonROM series. But I'm unable to sort out what version of the kernel would match my build of the ROM.
I understand that the most actual release is for versions 4.4.4, but the changelog and >200 posts I've browsed do give no hint which release was compiled for 4.4.2 ROMs.
Please note, I would ask directly in that respective thread in the development section if I could, but owing to the (imho pretty stupid) 10 post restriction of newcomers I am unable to post there.
Edit: Not necessary anymore, got my postings ...
Accordingly, my second question would be, if someone with more than 10 posts would be so kind and ask the following questions for me in the given thread?
Namely:
What version of the kernel would fit my 4.4.2 CarbonROM Build and where could I obtain it?
Does anyone had success to mount nfs shares with it (or cifs, if not) ?
Edit end
That and any alternative ways/hints to get nfs going would be highly appreciated!
Thank you very much,
Nix

Carbon ROM 4.4.2 Nightly Build (CARBON...20140302-0433.zip)
Kernel 3.1.10--g90cc2cb1 bigshotrob...
Simple. Give my kernel a shot. It uses an AnyKernel installer, which then works with both ext4/f2fs ROMs. If you don't want experimental dt2w/s2w, flash 1.6.1.

Thank you for the reply snuzzo,
would you mind to give some details where to learn more of its features and where to find it?
Then I'll have a look at it.
EDIT:
Thanks for the link! But exactly what version do I have download for my Carbon ROM build above, if I'd decide to use it that is?
Presumably .../kitkat/Funky...??
BTW, are there some feature lists or such things? I'll probably browse the forum a bit, I suppose?
Cheers, Nix
Anykernel Installer. You can flash it on either an ext4/f2fs rom for /data compatibility
Overclock with 1.3Ghz max default
Under/overvolt
IO Scheduler additions: SIO BFQ ROW
CPU Governor additions: Lazy Lagfree Scary Lulzactive Wheatley (could be few more but thats from memory)
DoubleTap2Wake/Sweep2Wake in 1.6.2, disabled in 1.6.1(experimental)
Kexec Hardboot for MultiRom
Dynamic Fsync Control
Stock Google 4.7GCC prebuilt toolchain.
CIFS.
Theres a few other tweaks I made for overall UI performance other than that it follows CM-11.0 source. I build these for my own personal use but upload to share them for those who want what I run. You will want 1.6.2 or 1.6.1.

Sounds great, although most of it are books with seven seals for me
What about nfs support? And its definitely for 4.4.2 based ROMs?
Thx again,
Nix
Yes to both. It has NFS and CIFS support.
And v.1.6 is the one you'd suggest?

One more question, please - do I have to activate or load those modules manually or will they be loaded at bootup by default?
Where may I find them to insmod/modprobe them manually, if not?
Thanks for the help once more,
Cheerio,
Nix
They will load by default.
This thread will be about changes i have made to the device trees for the t700,t705,t800,t805 which should in the long run make maintaining the variants a lot easier the primary changes i have done are combine all 4 of the variants into 1 kernel source as well as make a common device tree so they can inherit everything that is the same across devices.
Kernel Changes:
The Base kernel from Cyanogenmod supports klimtwifi (T700) and klimtlte (T705) to add support for chagallwifi (T800) all that is needed is to add its defconfig which is this file

To add support for the Chagallte (T805) it was a little more complicated for to do but very simple for you guys for a little background T805 is exactly the same chipset as the other Galaxy Tab S's except for whatever reason Samsung decided to put a different gpu (Midgard_wk04) everyone else uses a mali_t6xx.
The stuff developers actually need to support Chagalllte are the following:

Bam that was easy now any kernel can support all 4 main variants of the Tab S
Device tree and vendor repos
First part i want to place links to all of the stuff that's needed to make a rom for each device in one place.
(Disclaimer the trees will be LiquidSmooth but it is very easy to convert them to any rom)

WIP Common Device Tree:
When bringing up support for LiquidSmooth for these devices i noticed that they are all pretty much copied each other (which makes sense) but because of it there was tons of duplicated code between the devices so i decided to make a common device tree so any future code changes could be placed in one place instead of over 4 device trees. This is still a WIP because i do not have all the devices so i can not test them all in my eyes they should all work fine. The common device tree will also hopefully will be rom independent so no changes would be needed on a per rom basis. I can for sure say klimtwifi and chagallwifi work with my common tree, Chagalllte and klimtlte need to be tested still.

One more improvement that myself and @diegocr made was finally made a pernament fix to Chagallwifi's (T800) wifi issue he made a custom release tool in the device tree to make it so you would not have to manually patch it every time. I then took that and fixed the root of the issue which was that the vendor repo was not putting the files in the right spot. (My orig commit also did egl but that was not needed) the commit that did it is this:

Deathly Kernel
I have had a deathly kernel on most devices i own the goal of it is to get as many options and features into a kernel but still be stable. For the Tab S i took the aosp cm base and have updated it against kernel.org from 3.4.105 too 3.4.108 along with pull in a bunch of features from other exynos 5420 devices
As you read above i have made a common tree which changes the ramdisk so i have to provide two zips one with the new format one with old format currently the only rom that i personally have built with the new version is the latest klimtwifi and chagawifi all other roms will boot loop with it so use the old version
Currently i only have flashable for Klimtwifi (T700) i will generate the others once i get back from my trip.
New Ramdisk option:
http://www.drdevs.com/devs/teamliquid/Kernels/klimtwifi/New_format/
Old Ramdisk option:
http://www.drdevs.com/devs/teamliquid/Kernels/klimtwifi/Old_format/
Features of the Deathly kernel:
Will support all 4 main tab s devices (will add support for the US carrier variants if aosp is brought up)
CPU Voltage Control
CPU OverClock/UnderClock
GPU Voltage Control
GPU OverClock/UnderClock
MIF/INT Voltage Control (I will not show how to configure this if you know how too then you can)
Wolfson Sound Control Thanks to oloendithas for fixing it for stereo out
UKSM instead of KSM
Added the following IO Schedulers: fifo, fiops, sioplus, tripndroid, vr, zen, bfq (Default)
Full f2fs support updated off the mainline (Stock cm kernel has limited support)
Modified Thermal Throttling temperatures for all devices so hopefully they won't get as hot (WIP)
Android Logger disabled by default can be enabled over sysfs
Exynos thermal exposed to sysfs
WQ power efficient workqueues (Still need to apply in more places)
Frandom Support
Readahead bumped to 256 from 128
Details how to configure all of the features i will add the rest once i come back
GPU Configuration:
To configure the max or min gpu frequency you would go to either of the following files in a root enabled file browser and change the value inside
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq_gpu
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq_gpu
The allowed values for the files are as followed:
667, 600, 533, 480, 420, 350, 266, 177, 100
T800 owners the default min gpu freq is 100 on all roms if that causes issues raise the min freq to 266 you will probably not notice a battery decreases if that still does not work let me know i'll take a look at the code.

Thanks, working great on CM12.
Thank you man.. Im glad someone finely separated the device tree... And specially Happy about a new kernel that I can use in my Project Roms.
With all Credits going to you of course.. thanks again.
Hey mate, thanks for this!
I'm a little unsure about the new and old ramdisk thingy.
Running aicp on my klmitwifi, new ramdisk is cool?
Will try anyway, but let me know please!
Edit :
just checked, didn't stupidly before, Looks like the kernel is baked in your AICP rom.
Thanks again for your hard work!
Edit edit:
tried the v02 on the rom mentioned, had to revert cause I was having many ui fc.
Used new ramdisk version, could be that or I should have done a clean flash maybe?
Thanks for this, hopefully if fixes the lag issue for me on CM12 with the T800.
Thanks for all the hard work, grid .1 and .2 both worked perfect on bliss rom
Thanks, I will use your kernel on my chagallwifi SlimLP builds
Wait, does the Deathly kernel already in CarbonROM for T700 have F2FS support already? Or is that for the New Version and not yet built for klimtwifi? Thanks

The f2fs version in the carbon build is not updated like it is now so i can not guarantee it works the next build will work though

OK, thanks. Hope your enjoying your time off... :good:
I'm going to backup your kernel and try ashyx's new build released today. Its closer to stock but has F2FS support also. Then I will test yours once its updated. Loving this new tab of mine, almost forgot how much fun it was trying to find the sweet spot on a device, lol. My Nexus 7 found its sweet spot a long time ago and now its just a plain ole boring tablet. hehe

Would be really great!!
I would like to see SLIM LP on my tab s A platform to exchange user experience for our specific device would be very helpful for you and us
