So, I don't know if this was already posted, but the kernel source was just released for the Mi Mix, Note 2 and Mi 5s/5s+.
Here is the post from /r/Xiaomi: https://www.reddit.com/r/xiaomi/comments/67ucnw/_/
This could potentially mean that we could get Android Pay to work on custom ROMs. Damn, now I can't wait to get my own Mi Mix.
Hope it'll help some Dev to pull this off.
Good news. Though it doesn't compile straight out of box. *eye roll*
Great, maybe we can get band 20 now.

I m more interested by a custom kernel with all feature from Faux & Franco, etc... DT2W, S2W, Profile CPU & GPU, downspeed clock or Overclocking... battery optmization...
Who start to create it ?

...or it is impossible without Samsung support?
They already do. 4.3 does a great job.

I am not sure. I flashed the latest Resurrection Remix ROM and the battery life was a lot worse than TW.
My batterylife is better with AOSP than with TW. For 4.3 I recommend slimbean and included kernel, thor kernel gives crazy good batterylife too on 4.2.2/4.3 roms but thor is banned here.

For me Samsung roms are far more effective.
On CM based roms, i get max 2/3 days with my usage, while on Samsung roms i can get 6 days (once got 7 days of juice )

Thor Kernel gives better battery life than stock SlimBean?
My experience with PA 3.65 based on AOSP was mediocre in terms of battery life. I certainly love it much, much more than TW but I certainly couldn't justify keeping that ROM since it was pretty average with respect to battery. It wasn't like ridiculously bad but certainly 25-30% lesser than what stock TW usually gives me and hence I had to sadly move back to a TW based custom ROM. I am hopeful that eventually AOSP will get closer to TW in terms of battery life because in every other sense I find it better.
I was too upset to see the terrible battery life on Aosp. Only thing that keeps me away from them.
Don't know why they can't match up tw in terms of battery life.

I'm on cyano official 10.2 and battery life is quite decent but far from the Samsung roms. But I love cyano, and I think that the more drain is worthy.

On CM 10.2 or PA 3.99 I use SetCPU to create 3 profiles;
1) Screen off, max CPU=400, Governor=conservative
2) On call state, Max CPU= 500, governor= the same as the ROM
3) battery< %10, Max CPU=1000, Governor= the same as the ROM
One more thing; I don't think Samsung gives the same effort on giving a smooth experience and I don't think it is about bad software. I think the software is well-coded to perform efficiently but the CPU jump is tuned to be lower and slower intentionally. So it gives some choppiness compared to CM or any AOSP ROM but it also saves some energy from the CPU (or GPU at certain times)..
Basicly speed comes with cunsumption

Thanks. I applied all your settings and i set zzmoove as default governor (seems that is more battery friendly than pegasusq).
The story that you said about sammy roms is embarassing. I had an iPhone 4 before my Note 2 and it was completely smooth with a downclocked single core 1 ghz cpu. And battery life was pretty decent. I can't believe that android need so much power.
So, we can assume that all the other smartphone with great battery life (razr maxx, droid maxx, lg g2....) have choppy ui? I think (and i hope) that is related just to the optimization. Maybe samsung is not able to optimize the Touchwiz and prefers the Jeremy-Clarckson approach of "YEAAH, MORE POWER".

No. We can't assume such thing. Mine was just an assumption only for Note2/S3 Touchwiz vs AOSP.
Besides iPhone 4 is not downclocked, it has just a very high treshold for the last step (1GHz) so it comes into play very little. I remember such thing for dual core Sammy devices (or was it One X, poor memory of mine) from a kernel developer. He/she had tuned the kernel with very high tresholds for 800MHz and 1200MHz so the device was going easily 800 MHz but waiting there until there is huge load of porccesses and then jumping to higher clocks. So that waiting time on a stable was saving some battery and heat since the higher coltages are less efficient for both the battery and heating..
One more thing; the smoothness of an iPhone is not related to its CPU, it is all about the GPU which used to be higher than any same generation Android device until recently..

Thanks for the interesting reply.
Anyway, I've tried the parameters that you said, but on cm 10.2 the phone freezes in a black screen when is locked. Seems that I solved with a simple step up from 400 to 500 mhz when display is off. Just a report for the users that are reading this

ive never been able to get good overnight idle drain stats. with TW roms i would lose 3-4% per 8 hrs but aosp i can lose about 12-15%. this is with all sync off

Did you try thor kernel with slimbean? When I flashed it the phone didnt boot, was still on black screen. I flashed aokp-n7100-0.25 version, thx!

Why there is no Thor kernel in XDA? Or have my eyes missed it?
please visit Thors own site - Tegra owners.
if you are a lover of android then your experience cannot be complete without experiencing his 'touch' and you need to read through the threads there - his kernels just dont work without following his instructions.
Thread closed as it has already turned into a best rom/kernel thread. It appears that the question has been answered anyways.

Hello T-Mobile users,
If anyone is feeling adventurous, try the T-Mobile build of Plasma kernel (AOSP ONLY!) here. Don't forget to backup your boot partition first!
Please post your results.
More information on Plasma kernel in general: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...ment/kernel-plasma-kernel-note4-1-00-t3138069
More information on the AOSP build of it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62699253&postcount=78
Okay trying this kernel out however it's eating battery like its starving. And so far can't seem to get core 2 and 3 to come online, core 0 and 1 are stuck at 1.19GHz. Gone through the settings nothing is capping them to that frequency...so I'm uncertain why this is happening, I tried other CPU Governor's as well to no luck.
As I typed this I went from 50% down to 44% in the matter of 3 minutes. Only apps I have up are Tapatalk and Fauxclock.
I'd like to see how this kernel performs, but if I doesn't play very well, I will go back to Temaseks kernel as its a dream for battery/performance balance.

Hello,
I am Mi5 dev, and as some of you know what Mi5, Mi5S, Mi5S Plus, Mi Mix and Mi Note 2 have the same source, I have a kernel called "FloppyKernel" for MI5 and decide to add support for those devices, but with that I'm feeding feedback to know if everything is working, because I only have the Mi5, thank you if you can test and give feedback
Download
FloppyKernel for MI5
Testing it right now on Miui 7.12.14 (Globe rom).
Thank you for wanting to bring this kernel to Mi Note 2.
The first experience was:
Core 2 and 3 don't go to sleep when they are not needed.
Wi-fi seems to have a lower signal or it's just me .
I experienced some lag in the UI , the animations are not smooth like on the stock.
I will keep testing it and i will give feedback later.

Try install spectrun, have 4 profiles : battery, balanced, performance and gaming
I played with the settings of spectrum and kernel adiutor.
Spectrum profiles work fine , performance and gaming are very smooth , but even on the battery profile , the more powerful cores from the big cores which are part of the bigLITTLE architectures , are still not sleeping when screen is on .
In kernel adiutor , screen settings don't remain after i turn my screen off and turn it back on, might be something that i missed , but it also happens to me to other kernels...
When i changed the Speaker gain value to 1 , the phone froze and had to continuously press the power button to restart it. Also , volume gain does not work, neither microphone gain.
Thank you for the feedback of all, I will create an official thread for the kernel, there you can discuss the problems and solutions of the kernel (and post the logs, of course)

Hi Friends Just Wanted To Know, As I Have Been Searching To No Avail. If Anybody Knows Of A Custom Kernel For Our Aging Redmi 2 Prime. That Is Working With Miui 9 And Has A GPU Clock Of 720Mhz. CPU Is Fine At 1.4 GHz. If Anybody Knows Of One Please Share Guys. And If Not, May I Please Make A Humble Request To Our Devs That Have Worked On Kernels That Amp Things Up To That Extent. Please Would You Consider Creating One That's Miui Compatible. Many Thanks In Advance
redmi 2 gpu works up to 465mhz.
720mhz is placebo effect.

Thanks for the heads up bro. Turns out I was just confused by the level of optimization
Dear Fellow Mi Fans,
It is exciting news that the pie kernel source code for Mi Max 3 is finally and officially released!
It is available on the following github website! -> here
We can now await for more ported & custom ROM for your beloved Mi Max 3 Devices!
I hope all you out there who know how to create custom roms will start working on some for the Mi Max 3
I know we have some amazing developers who have the Mi Max 3 and would love to create some custom roms for us!
(I would love to see a completely stable and working LineageOS or RR)

I'm using Redmi Note 5 overclocked @ 2.15GHz but UV, still getting good battery life. If Max 3 has good kernel, overclockable, I will switch to Max 3 6GB/128GB soon.

I used Hardrock Kernel OCed to 2.8GHz for Max 2 and it's doing very well. I believe SD636 should do even better but not sure how does it compared against an OCed SD625.
Anybody tested the differences?

636 defaul performance far faster/bettet than 625. Oced 625 just help you more performance but it's really hard for A53 can reach A73 level!
I used Max 2 before switched to RMN5. RMN5 has much better performance, smoothness and responsiveness
Pie kernel sources were released.
