As long as you are on a custom rom(5.1.x based), you can.
In short, sure yes, why not

---

I just flashed it and so far all good. Any difference between this one and resurrection remix kernel?
Also I saw that this kernel uses 2 cores when idle. Why?
One more question, what exactly is quickwakeup? Thx for ur time and sorry for too many questions.!

Hows the battery and performance...any difference with rr rom...

---

The performance is very good and I don't have random reboots. With latest rr kernel I had random reboots.i got almost 44000 on antutu. Also battery life is on par with slim kernel(rr kernel) So far so good.

---

Overall is good, but hoping to put more governor, scheduler and TCP congestion.....
I noticed that the LED notification is more brighter....

---

I have an issue. I can't install cm12.1 themes after I flashed this kernel. I tried several themes and I get failed to install theme... Anyone have same issue?

Funnily enough, neither can I. :/
It probably wouldn't matter that I can install a CM12.1 theme, as the ROM I'm on is Layers RRO only, which also installed OK.

Infinitive-OS V1.3
Only semi-off topic as the ROM is one of Saatvik's and contains an earlier (less than a week) build of this kernel, so I hope that he doesn't mind the mention here.

can you add iso droid function, to mount z ultra as iso cd/dvd

Doesn't DriveDroid already do that? It's a feature that's even in the normal CyanogenMod kernel.

Any update for the kernel...i experiencing some lagging on some occasion...
