- Various performance tweaks
Changelog:
v1.0 Initial release: stock 3.4.0 kernel with added deadline I/O scheduler tweak.
v1.5 Added overclocking capabilities to 1.728 Ghz.
v2.0 Removed OC capabilities, added GPU OC to 450 Mhz, 100mV UV across the board, ARM CPU Topology (which improves the efficiency of multi core devices), and various performance tweaks.
v2.5 Added SIO I/O Scheduler, touch screen improvement tweaks (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2027476 and extra tweak by faux123), UV'ed all cores and frequencies by an extra 50mV for a -150mV overall, and switched to the AnyKernel template. (thanks _motley!)
v3.0 Reverted the extra 50mV of UV that caused instability and added faux123's voltage control interface for manual voltage adjustments.
v3.5 Added the reduced msm_hsic_host wakelock tweak, ROW I/O Scheduler, removed thermald to allow kernel to manage the heat using its own drivers, some ondemand governor tweaks, tweaked ARM CPU topology, and lowered the minimum voltage for voltage control interface (test your phone's limits).
v4.0 Reduced the minimum voltage for voltage control interface even more (test your phone's limits), added the CPU Voltage table for "faster" binned chips (still -100mV UV), added Fast Charge, added a 288 Mhz CPU step for better battery when idle, and added the BLX mod (see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1257497).
v4.5 Added the proper reduced msm_hsic_host wakelock tweak, fixed the "faster" CPU table (users who have "faster" chips should have no trouble now), added showp1984's Sweep2Wake, and partially reverted a display tweak from Google (this should provide a bit better display color than stock).
v5.0 Added Sweep2Wake gestures by faux123 with the touch events patch (no more frozen touch screens), switched to the GCC 4.7 compiler from Google, removed mpdecision and added _thalamus hotplug driver, and added the min_online_cpus module capability for the hotplug driver.
v5.5 Removed the 450 Mhz GPU OC and bumped it up to 487.5 Mhz, added thermal tweaks (to manage phone temperature) by franciscofranco, updated the interactive governor and ROW I/O scheduler to the latest version, and tweaked the auto hotplug driver for better battery life.
v6.0 Fixed the msm_hsic_host wakelock once and for all (You may still see it but it shouldn't be running that much), added PGM support (thanks to bponury), and added faux123's gamma control interface.
v6.5 Tweaked auto_hotplug to try to further improve battery life, removed Sweep2Wake (attempt to solve any touchscreen freezing issues), updated ROW I/O Scheduler, removed some CPU frequency steps (only kept the useful steps), added the FIOPS I/O Scheduler, and added the PA tweaked display colors.
v7.0 Merged the Android 4.2.2 kernel code, added the final PA colors from molesarecoming, added _motley's generic color control interface to allow easier scripting, and _motley's tweak to allow color changes to be "refreshed" automatically.
v7.5 Fixed the PGM touch control issue, added faux123's speaker amp control mod, added franciscofranco's accuracy filter control mod, updated the ROW I/O scheduler to the latest version, and added several ondemand governor update patches.
v8.0 Added fix for sporadic WiFi drops, added faux123's FauxSound mod, removed sweep2wake completely (attempt to fix power button issue), and added data drop fix (by faux123).
v8.5 Added the max_online_cpus mod by _motley (You can make your device single core, dual core, etc.), added a 192 Mhz CPU step (This should help with battery), and added the Wheatley governor by Ezekeel (#23 on http://www.alliance-rom.com/community/wiki/governors-explained/).
v9.0 Added USB OTG by ziddey, updated the FauxSound to v2.1, added the idle drain patches, updated the ROW I/O Scheduler to the latest version, added Touch Wake by stratosk, and got rid of the touch_boost errors in the logcat.
v9.5 Removed Touch Wake by stratosk and brought back Touch Control by bponury, removed USB OTG, and added MIUI support.

v10.5 Added support for Android 4.3 (JSS15J).
v11.0 Switched to the Anykernel zip template, updated Fauxsound to the latest driver, added faux123's dynamic sync control mod, and added support for bponury's touch control.
v11.5 Added support for Android 4.4.
v12.0 Merged mako 4.4.1 kernel source, added s2w fixes from showp1984, and added the FIOPS I/O scheduler.
v12.5 Added Tasssadar's kexec patch (for multirom), added ziddey's USB OTG (http://m.androidcentral.com/android-advanced-usb-otg-nexus-4), put in bundi22's iPhone 5 color preset by default, and updated Fauxsound to the latest driver.
v13.0 Fixed the bundi22 iPhone 5 colors to match the real preset, added flar2's MSM sleeper mod (max screen off frequency), updated the Interactive governor to the latest version, and updated the ROW I/O scheduler to the latest version.
v13.5 Reverted the Interactive governor updates due to issues (back to v12.5 Interactive governor), added mrg666's Linux 3.6.11 workqueue backport patches in order to improve hotplug efficiency, and added CyanogenMod based ROM support (CAF).
v14.0 Added support for Android 4.4.3, raised voltages across the board by 25mV (this will help those with slower CPU bins), and added stratosk's double tap to wake and touch wake mods.
v14.5 Added support for Android Lollipop and updated the FauxSound driver.

What's up guys... this is the first release of the Matr1x kernel for N4. I am starting off real simple (I set deadline as the default I/O scheduler and tweaked some values)
There is much more to come!
Also, I will start posting the kernels at www.matr1xkernels.com soon... for now please use the mediafire link. You can flash this in recovery.

I confirm he's done a wonderful job since Nexus S, and i'm pleased to see him there now
Btw, flashed this and it is very nice so far : snappy and smooth. We'll see about battery life...
Ok kid. I'm awake. I'm awake, I'll flash it now. Hit me up later today so we can discuss the future of this kernel lol. Happy Thanksgiving everyone

Got it flashed. Very smooth. According to system tuner only 2 cores are being used though.
I'm running a super top secret test rom and I was getting flickering unlocking the screen. It's gone after flashing this.

Wooooooooahhhh! What? Two cores only?
The ONDEMAND governor either shuts down two of them, or it has Hotplug enabled, or there's just some kind of a mistake. I don't know, might be a bit of a noobish comment.
Can anyone solve this for us?

You can check if all 4 cpu's are used properly by starting Geekbench and than have a look. While geekbench is running, all 4 cpu's should be used.

EDIT: Is it okay if i cook this in my ROM? Thanks.
I tested it out on sgt7 (cm10.1) and it was stuck at the max freq. Couldn't get it to scale down no matter what governor I chose or after rebooting. Went back to lean kernel and all is well again. Idk what happened?
Seems to be working so far for me....

OK, tested. But according to antutu is a little bit slower than motley one, but anyway I will keep testing for a couple days more.

Try with performance gov because I've optimized interactive gov to be less aggressive scaling at 1Ghz (hispeed_freq) for save more battery
Remember that a difference of 400~ points is normal from one test to another and if you just rebooted, wait that media scanner finish its work.
Very smooth and works perfectly on latest cm10.1! Found my favourite kernel

With stock rom, no problem with mouse/keyboard and usbdrives.
Works with other kernels?
Nice!!! I've been waiting for a full featured kernel like this.
Gonna try it real soon.
Thanks for the work!
ehi Brisma,good work man!tried the kernel,smooth and fast!benhmarks are a bit lower,but real-use is great!
Really like what you cherry-picked,i think i'll stay with that for now!
keep up the good work!

What governor do you recommend to use to hit the best battery life and performance balance?

ondemand or interactive performance and conservative are those you can play with.
Others are always giving you problems. Other governors are more buzzwords than anything else.
At least it's my opinion...

And what about SmartassV2? It gives great battery life and good performance not like ondemand(not so good performance) and interactive(not so good at battery life).

Just my opinion, for me no need to them. I use interactive when gaming an conservative for other things.
And my battery is great and i always keep stability.
The only kernels i use are trinity and franco kernels because of that.
To much governors, schedulers, patch and mods always gives you stability problem.
I do not denigrate any kernel or kernel devs, i just love when it's clean lean and simple.

This is my version of crpalmer's kernel with some additional features:
-Android 5.0 support
-Sweep2Wake/Sweep2Sleep, DoubleTap2Wake (from Beastmode)
-force fast charge (credits to chad0989)
-kexec-hardboot support (for use with MultiROM, credits to Tasssadar for the multirom and the m7 patch I used)
-FauxSound (faux123)
-Moar overclockingz (up to 1890 mhz)
Note: Every chip is different, your device may not support these higher frequencies.
-GPU overclocking (up to 533 mhz) (credits to faux123, )
Note: Again, every chip is different, your device may not support higher frequencies.
-Additional CPU governors and I/O schedulers. Read about CPU governors here.
-Dynamic Fsync (faux123)
-Simple GPU Governor (faux123)
-L2 Cache overclock
-600 MHz bus overclock
-F2FS support (still no luck with getting this fully working, testers are welcome)
-LZ4 compressed kernel (faster boot)
-More TCP Congestion algorithms
-Lots of slimbus improvements thanks to poondog
For maximum performance, I recommend some optimized dalvik libraries (KitKat only):
-For 4.4.4 ROMs, use the "CM11 Dalvik_Final" zip in this post
-For older (4.4.2) ROMs:
-For 4.4.2 CM11-based ROMs released before March 1st, use my Sense dalvik libraries here.
-If you are using a 4.4.2 CM11-based ROM released after March 1st, or any ROM with this commit you will need to use the 4.4_qc-optimized_dalvik-cm11.zip here. Credits to kszaq for this one.
-For LiquidSmooth, use these Sense dalvik libraries here.
-Also, credits to kszaq because these were based on his flashable zip.
If you find any ROMs where none of these zips work, let me know and I will try to make one for that ROM.
I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone. It is your device and your responsibility.
The following scripts are not required to change settings, they only exist as an alternative for people who don't want to use a third-party app. You can still use your favorite tuner app to tweak most of these kernel settings.
init.d tweaks
I created some scripts that run on boot (init.d) because I install my kernel so many times that I would go insane if I had to use an installer to configure it each time. By using these scripts and configuration files on the sdcard, I can just configure it once and keep installing away to my heart's content.
After installing this kernel, there will be:
/system/etc/init.d/99crpalmer
run at boot, even if you switch to another kernel. It is safe to leave this file there and to let it run as it only makes changes if the kernel contains "crpalmer" in the version. If run with a kernel that contains crpalmer in the version, it will rename mpdecision so it can't run. If you install another kernel it will then rename mpdecision back so that it will run in the new kernel. In addition to stopping the built-in mpdecision it will allow the following tweaks:
CPU Frequencies
* Frequencies loaded from /sdcard/crpalmer-cpufreq-min and /sdcard/crpalmer-cpufreq-max
* Governor loaded from /sdcard/crpalmer-cpufreq-governor
* If you specify either or both of these frequencies, it will lock down all of the CPU frequency controls. I had to do this because HTC overrides them in a script that is run very late in the boot process (thanks HTC!).
* E.g. adb shell su -c "echo 192000 > /sdcard/crpalmer-cpufreq-min"
* E.g. adb shell su -c "echo 1728000 > /sdcard/crpalmer-cpufreq-max"
* E.g. adb shell su -c "echo interactive > /sdcard/crpalmer-cpufreq-governor"
Undervolting
* + or - value loaded from /sdcard/crplamer-uv
* The undervolting in 2.0.23 for FAST binned CPUs would be specified as:
* E.g. adb shell su -c "echo -100 > /sdcard/crpalmer-uv"
Lightsensor
* My light sensor changes didn't sound like they worked well for everyone. If you don't like them you can disable them by:
* E.g. adb shell touch /sdcard/crpalmer-stock-lightsensor
HTC Colour "Enhancement"
* If this file is present then the HTC's colour "enhancement" will be used, otherwise it will be disabled.
* If this file contains the string "m7" then it will use one of the colour enhancement that was used in the M7 kernel for a panel most like ours.
* E.g. adb shell touch /sdcard/crpalmer-color-enhancement

DoubleTap2Wake:
* This allows you to wake the device by double tapping in the bottom half of the screen, just above the hardware keys.
* To enable or disable, create the file /sdcard/jamiethemorris-dt2w
* If this file contains a 1, dt2w is enabled. If it contains a 0 it is disabled. Enabled by default.
Sweep2Wake/Sweep2Sleep:
* This allows you to wake the device by sweeping from left to right over the hardware keys, and sleep the device by sweeping from right to left.
* To enable or disable this, create the file /sdcard/jamiethemorris-s2w.
* If the file contains a 1, s2w and s2s are enabled. If it contains a 0, they are disabled. Enabled by default.
GPU Overclock:
* The GPU's max frequency is loaded from /sdcard/jamiethemorris-gpu-oc. If this file does not exist, the stock frequency of 400 MHz is used.
* To set this GPU overclock, you need that file containing the GPU frequency in MHz. Frequencies from 400 to 550 MHz are available.
* E.g. adb shell su -c "echo 450 > /sdcard/jamiethemorris-gpu-oc"
GPU Governor:
* You can choose from either ondemand, simple, or performance GPU governors. Default is ondemand.
* The governor is loaded from /sdcard/jamiethemorris-gpu-gov
* E.g. adb shell su -c "echo simple > /sdcard/jamiethemorris-gpu-gov"
Dynamic Fsync:
* From Faux123: The dynamic sync control interface uses Android kernel's unique early suspend / lat resume interface. While screen is on, file sync is disabled. When screen is off, a file sync is called to flush all outstanding writes and restore file sync operation as normal.
* Disabled by default. To enable or disable, create the file /sdcard/jamiethemorris-dyn-fsync. Use 0 to disable and 1 to enable.
Force Fast Charge:
* To enable or disable fast charge, create the file /sdcard/jamiethemorris-fastcharge
* Use 0 to disable, and 1 to enable. Disabled by default.
Intelliplug and Eco Mode:
* Intelliplug is a replacement hotplug driver for HTC's mpdecision, Eco Mode limits your device to dual-core operations.
* To enable or disable, use create the file /sdcard/jamiethemorris-intelliplug
* If the file contains 0, intelliplug and eco mode are both disabled and your phone will use crpalmer's hotplug driver. If the file contains a 1, intelliplug is enabled but eco mode is disabled. If the file contains the string 'eco', intelliplug and eco mode are both enabled. Both are disabled by default.
I/O Scheduler:
* To change the I/O scheduler, create the file /sdcard/jamiethemorris-iosched, and your device will use whatever I/O scheduler you specify.
* E.g. adb shell su -c "echo row > /sdcard/jamiethemorris-iosched"
Undervolt Override:
* This allows you to globally undervolt your device, but leave the 1836 MHz, 1890 MHz, and 1917 MHz frequencies at their default voltages.
* To enable or disable:
- First you need to find your PVS bin number. You can find this by checking the file /sys/module/acpuclock_krait/parameters/pvs_number.
- Create the file /sdcard/jamiethemorris-pvs and put your PVS number in that file.
- After a reboot, your device will automatically set the highest frequencies to the default voltages for your chip.
* If you are either lazy or confused, you can put '?' in the file and your phone will set itself to the voltages for a 'nominal' binned chip.
For the rest of the features and changelog, see crpalmer's original cm11 kernel thread.
Thanks: crpalmer for all of his help (before I started on this I didn't even know how to use git), coachcrey for originally inspiring me to do this, and all the other devs/builders here that may or may not know I'm learning from them constantly.

Version Information
Status: Stable
Created 2014-01-28
Last Updated 2014-12-04
Changelog:
6.0.1
- All updates from CM:
- F2FS updates. Maybe F2FS works now (probably not).
- UID-based routing
- Enable selinux development
- Initial support for Lollipop (KitKat 4.4.4 ROMs are still supported)
5.8.2
- Updates from crpalmer:
* Update some video bandwidth parameters
* Interactive governor updates
- Pretty sure that's it.
5.8.1
- Updates from crpalmer:
* Patched up to linux 3.4.99 (latest version of as now)
* Patched up to latest CM (fixes a couple of CVEs, not a whole lot else was missing)
5.7.7.1:
-Force Fast Charge should now be fixed
-Make sure all cores are enabled when using performance CPU governor
5.7.7:
-Moved from Linaro 4.8.3 to 4.9.1
-Update modem restart commit from stock CM kernel
-No more intelliplug due to random reboots and the fact that simple plug works just fine. I may bring it back future versions.
-Reduce memory usage of input driver + oom tweaks that theoretically help a little bit with the touchscreen wake issue. I am still working on finding a real fix.
-SLIMBUS: m8 port, caf updates, new OC from poondog (better audio quality)
-Update BFQ to v7r3
-Update to latest F2FS driver
Older versions:
5.7.6:
-NOTE: There are 2 different zips for this version to avoid conflicts between crpalmer's simple plug and faux123's intelliplug.
-IMPORTANT: On the intelliplug version, intelliplug is enabled by default. If you disable intelliplug, there will be no hotplug driver running which will kill your battery quickly. So if you decide you don't want to use intellidemand, please use the simple plug version instead.
-Memory optimizations from Motorola
-Enable Linaro's power-efficient workqueues
-Intelliplug updates
-Merge latest CM commits
-Merge crpalmer's latest commits
-Update to Linux 3.4.86
-Update F2FS to the latest version
5.6.4:
-Hopefully fix voltage for "faster" binned chips
-Fixed random reboots when using intellidemand governor
-Fix scripts
-Disable intellidemand's active max frequency to prevent it from interfering with overclock
-Enable additional TCP congestion algorithms (thanks iHateWebOS)
-Sync s2w/dt2w/pocket detection with Beastmode
-Add Preservative governor (credits to bedalus)
-Update BFQ I/O Scheduler to v7r2
-Merge latest CM commits
-Merge crpalmer's latest commits
-Update to Linux 3.4.79
-Add LZ4 kernel compression/decompression for faster boot
-I think I forgot to mention this before, but I am now using a Cortex a-15 optimized Linaro toolchain.
5.5.5:
-Dynamic Fsync (Enable this only if you are sure your device is stable! If you have too many reboots, your data may get corrupted and you will have to reflash your ROM.)
-Simple GPU Governor
-Intelliplug hotplug driver with Eco mode (dual core operations). When this is disabled, it will use crpalmer's hot-plug driver.
-Intellidemand tweaks - I'm still working on this one, it tends to have random reboots at the moment.
-Decrease GPU OC to 533 MHz and increase bandwidth
-1917 MHz overclock is back, should be more stable now
-Sweep2wake + Sweep2Sleep
-Doubletap2sleep is not implemented in this version, sorry. Use your ROM's dt2s feature for now. I do plan on adding this back.
-Doubletap2wake can be used anywhere on the screen
-There should be scripts for all features, let me know if I missed something.
-Undervolt override for high overclocks. You can globally undervolt while leaving 1836 MHz, 1890 MHz, and 1917 MHz clocks unaffected.
-L2 cache overclock
-600 MHz bus overclock for 1674 MHz - 1917 MHz frequencies
-Support for F2FS filesystem (F2FS TWRP and MultiROM are coming as well, as soon as I have time to test)
-FIOPS I/O Scheduler
5.5.4.1:
-Now only one kernel zip
-GPU overclock is set with /sdcard/jamiethemorris-gpu-oc between 400 and 550 MHz. Default is 400.
-New wheatley governor
-Some more optimizations
5.5.4:
-Fixed video undderrun (blue flickering) issue with GPU overclock
-Updated FauxSound to 2.1
-Now only 2 kernel zips. One is stock GPU clock and the other is for 450 and 500 mhz overclocks. Default is 500 on the OC version.
-New governors: intellidemand, intelliactive, smartassV2, lagfree, badass, Lionheart
-New I/O Schedulers: zen, vr
-Improved touchscreen sensitivity - If this causes problems for people I will revert it.
-SLIMbus overclock which should in theory improve audio quality
-Various performance optimizations, see github for full details
5.5.3.4:
-Switch linaro optimization level from -03 to -0fast
-A few other optimizations, see github for full details
5.5.3.3: Up to 500 mhz GPU overclock. For now, there are 3 different downloads depending on what GPU frequency you want - stock (400 mhz), 450 mhz, and 500 mhz. There are no other changes, so if you don't want a GPU overclock there is no need to update to this version.
5.5.3.2: Up to 1890 mhz CPU overclock
5.5.3.1: Added FauxSound

Just to clarify, in that last edit you're just saying that turning dt2s off in the settings makes the kernel's version of dt2s work right? Cause that's what I'm seeing on my phone. Thanks for the heads up, I enabled the dt2s setting a while ago but I always forget that I did so I hadn't tested it yet.

Dt2s is working for me. S2w isn't functional yet. Is dt2w working for you?
If you have dt2s enabled in your ROM settings, make sure you disable it as out counteracts the kernel's dt2s.

That's weird then. You have to double tap the status bar in case you didn't already know that. If that's still not working, then enabling the ROMs version of it in settings should do the trick.

@RP74698: for daily use... Intelliplug or Alucard and yankactive... UKSM active... For battery auto_SMP or dyn_hotplug and zzmoove. For balance... Any other gov. GPU msm_adreno since it has the adreno idler by arter
@Tylog: I'm planning to add a sound control maybe faux's maybe not you'll see
Thanks to everyone for your comments!
What is UKSM active and how use this Sir
That's good Faux or whatever, only V4a is not enough for me, I need my music loud thanks.
Linux kernel has a feature named KSM(Kernel SamePage Merging). it lets the hypervisor system share identical memory pages amongst different processes or virtualized guests. However, it has its limitation such like high CPU usage and slow responses to workload change. So here comes UKSM. With a revolutionary algorithm redesign, UKSM has many advanced features:
Full system scan.*It automatically scans all user processes’ anonymous VMAs. Before UKSM, a process need to call KSM kernel API to submit its memory areas to KSM for scan. This makes many legacy software other than KVM can NOT benefit from KSM. Now, UKSM scans whole system applications including KVM. All programs benefit from UKSM without even knowing how it works.
Super quiet CPU usage.*It automatically detects rich areas containing abundant duplicated pages. Rich areas are given a full scan speed. Poor areas are sampled at a reasonable speed with very low CPU consumption usually under 1%. Our benchmarks show that even for CPU intensive workloads, it has a negligible performance impact. Ultra scan speed and CPU efficiency.*A new hash algorithm is proposed. More on this...UKSM info
Thanks!!
Where is allocated UKSM in your kernel and how activate this as I'm using kernel auditor app not seeing anywhere ,only seeing KSM and this is active by default .

Hi my friend.. This is UKSM on Kernel Aduitor (Kernel Same Page Merging), is active by default. Since it saves CPU cycles when merging files and making changes it will save battery and increase overall system performance. No need to activate it.
Thanks for your testing!
Thanks Sir

Introduction
This is a kernel for XT1572/XT1575 built from stock sources (marshmallow-6.0.0-release branch) with cherry picks from other kernels and some ports/mods done by me. It started as a personal build tailored to my preferences but just thought I'd share in case somebody might find it useful. My main goal is building the smoothest kernel I can get so performance is top priority.
This kernel is for stock ROM MPH24.49-18*
Disclaimer
Although I have experience with Linux kernels on desktops and servers this is my first Android kernel. I've been running this kernel on my XT1572 for a few days and seems pretty stable but that doesn't mean it's risk free. In fact I wouldn't dare to install it if you don't have a proper backup and some basic skills to deal with unexpected situations.

Installation instructions
Download ZIP and flash from TWRP/Flashify. Read the following notes carefully before flashing.
Important notes:
This kernel is still experimental, make a proper backup first
You need to be rooted
DO NOT play with DT2W/S2W before reading the release notes and the update
In case you want to tune some parameters (ie: CPU frecuencies) I recommend you install EX Kernel Manager, Kernel Adiutor or Kernel Adiutor-Mod.
If you're using Kernel Adiutor to control vibration or TCP congestion read this.
Questions? Read the FAQ before posting.

Donations
Although quite a deal of the important work has been done by the developers mentioned in the Credits section I spend many hours working on this. If you feel like helping me out I'd appreciate some tiny donations to cover some minor expenses.
Thanks to all of you who have donated, it's very much appreciated.
Profiles
One of the FAQ in most kernel related threads is "What are the best settings for .....?". This is the 10 million question since the usage pattern can be very different for each user. However, I understand less experienced users will appreciate some hints in this department, so that's why I'm posting some basic settings you can use as a starting point.
It's your job to further tune them to suit your needs. You should be able to modify these settings with whatever Kernel Control App you like the best, although not all settings are available in every app, in such a case tune those you can. The list is not complete (just the most importante settings) and is loosely based on Kernel Adiutor arrangement.
Please, keep in mind these are subjective values (based of personal preferences or popularity) and some people might like other settings for whatever reasons.

FAQ
I get random reboots, what is happening?
This kernel overclocks both clusters by default (a53: 1536MHz a57:2016MHz) and although this is very safe for most devices some CPUs are in the lowest spot of the binning spectrum and can't handle O/C very well. In such a case use a kernel control app (see the OP for references) to limit the maximum CPU frequencies, play with them until you find stable values for your device.
What are the best settings for battery life/performance/whatever?
That's hard to tell as every user is different. You can find some basic profiles in the OP you can use as a starting point. Notice the differences between then and build you own.
Why do some BIG cluster settings display N/A?
Why can't I change some settings on the BIG cluster?
If you get N/A or weird values when trying to change settings on BIG cores it means both are offline ("hotunplugged"). To work around this select "performance" governor, make your desired changes and then select you previous governor. You can also disable hotplug, make the changes, and enable hotplug again.
DoubleTap2Wake doesn't work sometimes. How can I get it to work all the time?
When device goes into suspend mode first tap is often missed (I suspect this is caused by Moto Sensor Hub). If you tap three times and get the timing right you'll probably make it work most of the time. As an alternative, Sweep2Wake works almost all the time
DT2W/S2W is acting weird or disabling itself
Make sure Moto Display is disabled. Open the Moto app, click on the stars in the top right corner, select Display and set to Off
Can I use this kernel in ROM X/Y/Z?
This is for stock ROM MPH24.49-18 only. It'll probably work on any stock based ROM but not guaranteed.
I use stock ROM but WiFi is not working
Due to some internal changes all modules had to be recompiled (WiFi included). In order to expose the new modules without modifying the system partition I had to implement a hack that requires root. Make sure you're properly rooted.
What's the deal with ZRAM?
ZRAM is a technique to increase memory available to the apps at the expense of CPU time. Memory space from apps not being used is compressed into a memory swap area and uncompressed on the fly whenever needed. As you can imagine this compress/uncompress process burns CPU cycles, potentially leading to worse battery life, lag and higher temperatures. Since this device comes with 3GB I can only think of one scenario where ZRAM can be beneficial: heavy multitaskers who care more about apps not reloading than battery life. For the rest of users enabling ZRAM doesn't make much sense in my opinion, and that's why it's disabled by default.
UPDATE: v0.10 includes an updated ZRAM driver that improves performance significantly. So much so that the benefits seem to outweigh the costs and it's been enabled by default.
What's the deal with KSM/UKSM?
Since many apps use the same libraries/resources it's very likely that at any given time there are multiple copies of the same data on different memory locations. KSM/UKSM tries to take advantage of that fact by scanning memory pages periodically and consolidating that multiple copies into a single shared copy. Much as like ZRAM it can have a good effect on heavy multitasking performance but at the expense of CPU cycles, and thus it's only recommended in the same scenario as ZRAM. Disabled by default
Ok, so do I enable ZRAM/KSM/both/neither?
I honestly think most users will be better off not using neither. If you feel like you need extra RAM I'd try KSM first, then ZRAM. Using both at the same time is overkill unless you are an ultra multitasker, in which case you should probably get a 4GB device anyway
How do I get WiFi on 6.0.1?
It's a modem version mismatch issue, you need to downgrade the modem. See this post.
Love to see more options! Thanks for sharing!!
Yeah this will be very good
Only One think that would be awesome try to implement the double tap to wake
Awesome! More custom kernels are always welcome are there many governors to choose from?

As I said on the OP my main goal is performance/smoothness, so I haven't specifically sought better battery life. That being said I'm getting about the same battery life as stock with better performance, that works for me.
Nevertheless, I'm very interested on how it works for other configurations and usage patterns.
@dirtyhank could you please add hotplugging to the kernel? Preferably one that allows you to select how many cores to run as well as which ones, as in run the two A57s and turn off the four A53s. Currently I'm running two A53s at 1.2Ghz and the remaining four cores are always off.
The screenshot is from Lolipop, and it is the only reason why I havent upgraded to MM. Turning off cores definitely makes a difference on battery life.
Also, if possible, adding a lower speed to the min speed. Will gladly test anything you thow my way. Thanks in advance.
Is there any chance for a CM13 version and a DT2W fork from elementalx?

DT2W maybe, CM13 unlikely.
very nice thank you! slowly slowly we getting more and more things. Just making sure this is only for stock based rom/s Thanks!!
