I suggest Kernel Auditor.
Kinda wondering could you maybe add some features from this kernel thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2845768
It has nexus 5 kernel too but the devs mainly focused on n4 so maybe you could make the n5 version of it especially the 5.1 version. If it is allowed by the devs. Since the last commit is 2 months old and no new updates for 2 months
JJsevol said:
Ah makes sense now.
@mastero9017 are there any other changes you made from chroma besides the blu changes and toolchain? Liking the kernal so far :good:

Everything is listed in OP. I'm not sure yet about future of this kernel. TomorrowLand_Ace will provide great patches for kernel itself and i will try to port changes to blu modules from shamu and tweaks some values, flags, etc

Unofficial DorimanX builds by Saber (formerly gsstudios)(The resurrection of kitkat kernels)
Development has been discontinued due to commitment to lollipop roms
The Background:
DorimanX development has stopped for a while now. I've been a long term dorimanx user, but I felt that a lot of features need to be implemented into the kernel. As of a result, I decided to make my own personal builds! Please note that I'm no way as good as the master himself, Dorimanx, but I try to implement features to the best of my abilities. Also, I'm not going to be a proper maintainer of dorimanx kernel, this is just what I've done in my spare time.
If you have problems or if anything goes wrong, you can flash latest build by Cybernetus
You can download from his official website:
http://dorimanx.cybernetus.com/
The Mission:
To continue giving support for the much loved kernel. New features and additions will be added to improve flexibility and speed to the already amazing kernel. My goal is to improve DorimanX kernel as much as I can, without sacrificing stability.
NO LOLLIPOP SUPPORT HERE. JUST 4.4.X KITKAT ONLY!
DISCLAIMER:
ONLY FOR AOSP BASED ROMS
I'm not responsible for bricked devices or wrong version flashing
You are using this kernel at your own responsibility
——— !!!!!!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !!!!!!!! ———
FEATURES:
This kernel includes the following additional features over stock dorimanX kernel:
- CPU Governors: HYPER, Ondemand, pegasusQ, Intellidemand, neoX, darkness, nightmare, zzmoove, sleepy, conservative (Default: HYPER)
- IO Schedulers: ROW, Tripndroid, FIOPS, SIO, BFQ, CFQ, Noop, ZEN, Deadline (Default: ZEN)
- TCP Algorithms: Cubic, Reno, BIC, Westwood, Highspeed, Hybla, HTCP, Vegas, Veno, Scalable, Lp, Yeah, Illinois (Default: Westwood)
- Updated SuperSU
- Built with Latest Optimized Linaro 4.9 Toolchain (Smooth, fast and fluid) - Main toolchain
- Built with Latest UBER 6.1 Toolchain (Smooth, fast and fluid) - Secondary toolchain
- Built-in Stweaks profiles updated (All profiles suit needs for most people now)
- Trim support (Be careful if you have brickbug affected chip!)
- Updated FPBug fix is already included in this kernel!
- Updated Linux Kernel version to 3.15.0 stable!
- Freezefix is already included in this kernel!
- Isorec support
THINGS TO DO:
- Why don't you tell me what to do
THINGS I WILL NOT ADD:
Code:
- LZ4 Compression (Our Boot partition is way too small to support this)
- Useless CPU governors such as Userspace
- Colour tuning support (Unless someone helps me with this)
- Recovery version (WIll only consider doing this if working on LP kernel)
- Higher thermal limits (We all know what happens if we do this)
- Higher overclocking/Lower underclocking capabilities (So you want less stability and more SODs?)
- Synapse support (Stweaks is the only app that can fully support this kernel)
- Linux Kernel version updates (My skills need to improve first before taking on something this big)

Code:
No more build from me :)
--RELEASED VERSIONS (GENERAL AVAILABILITY) --
Code:
[B]DorimanX 10.50 v009 (STABLE)[/B]
- Additional security updates from LineageOS kernel source
- Force Deadline to be used as the default scheduler while not in OS
- Updated stweaks descriptions from previous commits
- Re-enabled Software CRCs. DorimanX kernel does experience corruption issues so it is better to keep this enabled.
[B]DorimanX 10.50 v008 (STABLE)[/B]
- Security updates from LineageOS (formerly Cyanogenmod) kernel source
- Change default I/O scheduler to ZEN - CFQ better for hard disks, ZEN is good for flash storage
- Remove UKSM - The kernel needs to be more in-line with the linux kernel
- Remove toggle for Software CRCs and disable by default - Tested safe by other devs so why not?
- Remove power saving workqueues control - Had little to no effect
- Remove Powersave and Performance governors - I don't keep garbage :)
[B]DorimanX 10.50 v007 (STABLE)[/B]
- Fixed TRIM on /data partition - Looks like I forgot to remove discard option, hence TRIM wasn't working properly in all previous builds. My bad :(
- Stweaks profiles will be reset
- Synced many updates from MM kernel
- zzmoove will now use alucard hotplug as the default hotplug
- UKSM support with tuning support in stweaks
- Software CRCs re-enabled and toggle added to stweaks
- General stability fixes and performance improvements
- Cleanup to initramfs
- UBER 6.1 support
- Updated UBER and Linaro toolchain
[B]DorimanX 10.50 v006 (STABLE)[/B]
[COLOR="Red"]I found that I have missed some changes in the previous build, so this build aims include them[/COLOR]
- Synced most updates from LP kernel
- UBER 6.0 support. UBER 5.3 builds discontinued.
- Reverted VM tweaks
- Updated Stweaks descriptions, synced reorganized hotplug tab
- General performance improvements and fixes
- CFQ is the default I/O scheduler for all profiles
- Added missing optimizations from LP kernel
- LMK profiles now properly enforced
- zzmoove will now use intelliplug as the default hotplug method
[B]DorimanX 10.50 v005 (STABLE)[/B]
- This is just a little treat to all the people who still use my KK kernel :) I'm releasing this because I'm not truely satistfied with the experience on KK.
- Added MDNIE changing support
- Removed VFS cache tuning
- Updated HYPER, SIO updated to SIOPlus, plus many more changes from LP kernel.
- General performance improvements and fixes
- Synced most updates from LP kernel
[B]DorimanX 10.50 v004 (BETA)[/B]
[COLOR="Red"]- This is a kernel end of life build mainly built to fix some kernel issues that still exist after the last official kernel release. No additional features will be added to these releases.[/COLOR]
- Freezefix has been implemented from LP branch. Evidence shows that earlier versions of android are also affected by the 150mhz bug. This will solve some rare random freezing and will provide additional stability. I didn't add this in earlier builds because I thought there was no need to for an already stable kernel :)
[B]DorimanX 10.50 v003 (BETA)[/B]
[COLOR="Red"]- This is a kernel end of life build mainly built to fix some kernel issues that still exist after the last official kernel release. No additional features will be added to these releases.
[/COLOR]- Low latency audio fix will be applied on boot. DorimanX doesn't support low latency audio which causes games using recent unity versions to sound horrible. Thanks to @dualjoe. If you want to re-enable low latency audio, reflash rom and use different kernel!
- NON-TRIM builds and UBER 4.9 builds will not be released!
[B]DorimanX 10.50 v002 (BETA) - LAST NON-TRIM AND UBER 4.9 BUILD[/B]
- sched: Set MC (multi-core) sched domain's busy_factor attribute to 1. This will increase CPU performance.
- fixed compilations warnings thanks to @chhapil
- Changed swappiness drop down to slider. Allow users to select a more precise percentage.
- Limit boot booster frequency to a max of 1.4Ghz. Anything higher will cause many devices not to boot :) Plus there are very few CPUs out there that can run higher than this config.
- Added lowmem_reserved_ratio tuning to stweaks thanks to @dorimanX. A higher ratio will give you more free RAM if you see that your free RAM is always loaded and device LAG, but it's also uses more battery to gain more free RAM with loaded system. Please don't use the relaxed setting as you will run out of RAM very easily.
- Isorec recovery support. Many thanks to lanchon who has been working with me for the past few days. If you require to dualboot, don't use isorec recovery. I have linked the isorec disabler for people who want dualboot/dorimanx recovery. Also, TWRP can't mount USB storage so you won't be able to transfer files between PC, go back to CWM to fix this. We have isorec on DorimanX :) However this is still a WIP.
- zzmoove will now use alucard as the default hotplugging driver.
- Add toggle for power efficient workqueues. Enable to save power, disable for performance. Fixed parameter permissions. If you disable this, Cortexbrain will automatically switch on this during sleep state to save battery. Avoid using Kernel Adiutor to set this value as stweaks can do this properly.
- Set profiles with "medium" OOM values to "default"
- Synced some VM and memory tweaks from LP branch
- Minor fixes to some stweaks descriptions
[B]DorimanX 10.50 v001 (BETA)[/B]
- GCC 5.x support. Starting from this build, we will see UBER 5.3 experimental builds for those who want the best performance they can get. Thanks @chhapil
- Toolchain GCC Version is also included now in zip file name so we don't get confused
- Synced missing futex updates from Linux 3.15 stable
- UBER toolchain updated to 2016-01-11 build
- This build will be built with Linaro and UBER (From now on, I will be naming builds with the selected toolchain)
- tick: Fix a bug which impacts CPU frequency scaling
[B]DorimanX 10.45 v040 (BETA)[/B]
- Upstreamed kernel version to 3.15.0 stable! Lots and lots of fixes for various parts of the kernel, once again, thanks to realex-fire for contributing! ;)

- All updates from v036 is included in this build
- MOVHYSTI/vitalij value changed to 0 (Super sensitive, suitable for gamers and people who want really responsive screen)
[B]DorimanX 10.45 v036 (STABLE)[/B]
- Reverted I/O scheduler updates
- Tuned I/O scheduler fifo batch and other tweaks
[B]DorimanX 10.45 v035 (STABLE)[/B]
- Updated UBER toolchain to 20151025 build

[B]DorimanX 10.45 v034 (STABLE)[/B]
- Removed interactive and lionheart CPU governor (Should fix all, if not most, SOD issues)
- Fixed zzmoove fast scaling variable number range (should be from 0 to 5, not 0 to 8)
[B]DorimanX 10.45 v033 (BETA) - Changed to BETA because of issues with SODs[/B]
- Added lionheart CPU governor from chhapil's source
[B]DorimanX 10.45 v032 (BETA) - Changed to BETA because of issues with SODs[/B]
- Fixed all zzmoove tunables in stweaks. I'm not adding more tunables for zzmoove since it will cause stability issues.

Downloads
I test most of these builds to make sure they are stable. There may be some cases where I might not test out a build before releasing it. Kernels marked with '(STABLE)' are safe for everyday use, but only take this as a indication.
--IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ--
CAUTION: All builds marked with 'TRIM' at the end has TRIM enabled. If you have brickbug affected emmc chip, avoid downloading it if you don't know what you are doing! For more information about the trim brickbug, visit Lanchon's guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ives/rom-brickbug-aftermath-speeding-t2843238
All builds without 'TRIM' (marked as 'NON-TRIM') have trim disabled. These kernels are safe on brickbug affected chips.
MAKE SURE YOU'RE DOWNLOADING THE RIGHT KERNEL. OTHERWISE YOU COULD BRICK YOUR DEVICE!
For TRIM users:
To use TRIM, you can download an app on the app store called trimmer or use terminal commands as directed in the troubleshooting guide.
And finally, I always see the question on whether to use TRIM or NON-TRIM builds. I recommend using TRIM builds on all devices, even if you have brickbug affected chip. This is because TRIM builds are safe from brickbug as they have been correctly patched up and so it has been used by many users. However, when in doubt, use NON-TRIM builds.
Isorec (Isolated Recovery)
Starting from build v002, I have introduced isorec into dorimanX kernel. CWM works perfectly, whereas TWRP can't mount USB storage. More work will need to be done to get TWRP fully working.
Download for isorec recoveries:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=47550
If you have a dualboot setup or if you want to set up dualboot, you should stay on StanTRC recovery. If you want to return to StanTRC recovery, flash the isorec disabler:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960682947
Forgot to download backup/older kernel/isorec disabler after flashing TWRP?
Go to download mode and flash a kernel .tar file OR wait until OS boots and copy required files to your phone
Which build should I use?
Linaro 4.9: Use this build for best stability. Battery life is not as good as UBER 4.9. This build should only be used as a fallback if all other builds fail to meet expectations or when the other builds give problems.
UBER 6.1: Use this build for best performance. Performance difference is small and battery life is slightly worse than Linaro 4.9. This build should only be used by advanced or more experienced users (beta testers).

Troubleshooting
(Probably one of the most detailed troubleshooting guides for kernels on XDA)
For general help, please use the Q&A thread
Take me to the Q&A Thread
Q: Why flash your kernel? - For new users of DorimanX kernel
This applies to dorimanx kernel in general. Dorimanx kernel is an aftermarket kernel (or custom kernel) that is designed to allow users to tweak their phone at the kernel or near-hardware level side of things. In other words, users get more fine-grained control over their phone, this includes overclocking, underclocking, changing behavior of CPU/GPU etc. Adjusting such settings isn't for the faint-hearted since there is soooo many things to understand, but you aren't required to understand all of the settings. Ultimately, if you want to improve your phone experience, try dorimanx kernel!
Q:How do I flash your kernel?
A: You flash kernels like flashing roms, except you don't have to factory reset your phone. If you can't flash the kernel for some reason, you can either flash philz recovery then flash the kernel OR you can just make your own kernel .tar file and flash via ODIN by following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/convert-kernel-zip-to-tar-t2994381
Q: Can I use isorec recovery on DorimanX kernel?
A: Yes you can. All important information was covered in the OP already!
Q: Why should I flash your builds when the last 'real' unofficial build was v008?
A: If you don't want to enjoy awesome features that improve the experience of dorimanx kernel, then it doesn't worry me. Real or not, I don't build kernels to have bad battery life, bad stability and etc. This is my personal build of dorimanx kernel!
Q: Which kernel version build should I flash?
A: Flash the latest stable version if you want the most stable experience. Builds that have not been marked with 'Stable' are mostly stable, or haven't been tested enough to earn a stable tag. Either way, it's up to you which one you want to flash. Read the changelog for any important changes that might have occurred in a particular build.
Q: Wifi doesn't work after I flash this kernel
A: There are two main causes to this issue, either there is a problem with your:
- Partitions OR
- Permissions OR
- Gapps OR
- ROM OR
- Compatibility with your wifi hardware
Don't use a pit with modded preload! It will just cause issues with ROMs and Kernels. Use stock pit or use a pit with unmodded preload. Sometimes, the gapps package you flash somehow breaks compatibility with the kernel. You can fix this by flashing a different gapps (making sure to clean cache and dalvik). If you have permissions problem, you can fix this by repartitioning your internal sd card or by reflashing back to stock rom. Sometimes, the ROM doesn't fully support the wireless drivers in the kernel, this can be solved by flashing a different ROM or different kernel. But if your wifi hardware is not compatible (a way to tell this is when you have tried everything and failed), there is nothing you can do but reflash the rom or flash a different kernel.
Q: My sd cards don't mount after I flash dorimanX kernel!
A: Please check the format (or file system) of your sd cards. DorimanX kernel doesn't support ext4 formatted sd cards and hence you can't see them. You will need to format the sd cards to fat32 or other format.
Q: I came from a different custom kernel that used Stweaks, now the app has issues
A: Every time you come from a different custom kernel with stweaks support, make sure to wipe cache and dalvik cache after install dorimanx kernel
Q: My battery life sucks after flashing this kernel!
A: Download and install Betterbatterystats and see what is the culprit to your problem. If it is kernel related, have you made sure you have wipe cache and dalvik and reset stweaks settings? If yes, it would be nice if you posted a logcat.
Q: How do I get a logcat for the kernel?
A: In stweaks, go to BUG-REPORT and tap on KERNEL-BUG.
Q: Why do I get bootloops with this kernel?
A: If you were on a working version on dorimanx kitkat before, there is probably something wrong with the installation. If you are on a ROM that is not kitkat, you flash the wrong kernel! You need to flash the right kernel for your android version. Sometimes, bootloops can occur due to corruption of the kernel zip file (usually from bad download) or from corrupted partitions.
Q: What do all of the settings mean? They are all confusing!
A: Please note that DorimanX kernel isn't for users who have just rooted their device. Before jumping into the custom kernel world, try playing around with other kernels first. Once you think you have some experience, read the stweaks beginners guide I made and then attempt to tweak the kernel using stweaks.
Q: How do I trim my partitions?
BEWARE: Make sure you have read all of the precautions before attempting to trim your partitions!
A: install the trimmer app from the playstore. App link . Check for all 3 partitions, and tap on run. grant root access. the 3 fstrim operations should be successful ("partition was trimmed" means success).
alternatively, instead of using trimmer you can run one of these commands (these are better because they also trim /preload):
# on the phone in the terminal app:
su -c "fstrim -v /system; fstrim -v /data; fstrim -v /cache; fstrim -v /preload"
# on your PC if you are connected to the phone via adb:
adb shell su -c "fstrim -v /system; fstrim -v /data; fstrim -v /cache; fstrim -v /preload"
reboot.

Q: My device is (hard) bricked after flashing your kernel!
A: Have you read all of the precautions before installing the kernel? You made the decision to flash the kernel and now you've stuffed up your phone.
Q: I get constant FCs after flashing your kernel!
A: Have you wiped your cache partition, dalvik cache and reset stweaks settings? If you've done all of these already, a logcat would be nice
Q: How do I use dual boot?
A: There are many guides on how to dual boot roms using dorimanx kernel. Just use the search function on XDA or GOOGLE it!
Q: What's a good combination for CPU governor and I/O scheduler?
A: Have a look at the default settings, they are optimised for our phone
However, here are some settings I personally like:
1. Governor: HYPER/Ondemand I/O scheduler:SIO/SIO
2. Governor: PegasusQ/Nightmare I/O scheduler: SIO/SIO
3. Governor: NeoX/Ondemand I/O scheduler: SIO/SIO
4. Governor: Nightmare/Nightmare I/O scheduler: SIO/SIO
Q: Why does the screen turn blank after the dorimanx logo appears during the boot process?
A: If your kernel doesn't bootloop, but the screen remains blank, there is a good chance that the ROM that you've used uses an older version of GPU drivers (Mali). This kernel only support ROMs with Maliv3 support. If you flash this kernel on MaliV2 or MaliV1 only roms, you will get a blank screen after flashing. To fix this, flash to the kernel the corresponds to your mali driver version and you should get your display back.
Q: What is a TCP algorithm?
A: Congestion control strategies (or algorithms) are used by TCP, the data transmission protocol used by many Internet applications. The main goal of a TCP algorithm is to avoid sending more data than the network is capable of transmitting, that is, to avoid causing network congestion.
Q: What is a toolchain?
In software, a toolchain is the set of programming tools that are used to create a product (typically another computer program or system of programs). The tools may be used in a chain, so that the output of each tool becomes the input for the next, but the term is used widely to refer to any set of linked development tools.
A simple software development toolchain consists of a compiler and linker to transform the source code into an executable program, libraries to provide interfaces to the operating system, and a debugger. A complex product such as a video game needs tools for preparing sound effects, music, textures, 3-dimensional models, and animations, and further tools for combining these resources into the finished product.

Q: What is UBER?
A: After years of using different custom toolchains like Linaro and SaberMod, I found there were things I liked about both of them but also things that didn't sit quite as well with me. SaberMod always seemed to have UI lag (especially in scrolling) but opened apps well and Linaro always seemed to be buttery smooth but had terrible app opening speed. Linaro battery was also worse for me than SaberMod. After going back and forth between toolchains I finally had this epiphany! Why not just take all of the best parts of all toolchains and merge them into one? So I began bringing up my own toolchain from gnu.org. At first I patched in all of the AOSP toolchain pactches (much like how SaberMod did it originally however it is important that you realize that No! I did not copy and paste SaberMod into my source I'm simply stating that I used their idea of merging aosp into gnu.org) to my source. Then I went through and added all of the linaro patches that I could to the source. I also made sure that I had the very latest of every toolchain component. I then made very minimal changes to the aosp toolchain build folder to allow for building with these newer toolchain components and UBERTC was born!!! (Note: both Linaro and SaberMod both made lots of modifications to the toolchain build folder, UBERTC is the closest to the aosp build process)

thanks
will give a try as usual
Green light, all is go. There are issues where new scheduler or algorithm can't be set yet, but no major issues
gsstudio, dorimanx kernel was my kernel for kk for a very long time until LP appear. But for now I just can't go back again for KK...it's way behind LP in performance and speed. I left a private message for you, if you have time answer me. Thanks gsstudio. Cheers.:good:

Nice work! Keep it up!
Very hopeful here bro, reallly really looking forward to a dori like lp kernel its realllly really needed, get good soon
Tripndroid and FIOPS should be fixed now. Was missing a few strings to add
Will fix problem with tcp algorithm later.
What do you guys think about the default io scheduler? Should I change it to zen (like in dorimanx g2), tripndroid or something else? I've been testing tripndroid for a while now, very smooth and fast.
If you wanted to know the specific changes to the default profile, I changed threshold values so they are slightly higher (screen on up threshold 60-->70 and screen off up threshold 60 --> 75). LMK for screen on changed to medium, io schedulers changed to SIO. I might remove zzmanx and put zzmoove so that it is up to date. Possible add an option to change profiles if possible.
I have successfully built dorimanX with Uber toolchain. Lots of new improvements and adjustments made to the kernel. Look at post 3 for changelogs: Link
Keep up the good work
I love your work gsstudios! I pm you. Are you needing any help? Has the pool is clear, Lollipop support is the way now. Of course there's people that likes KK, but imho kk has many probs in RAM management. Are you going to work full in KK and then convert it to lollipop? It's that the way?
Have some questions:
1. Does this have the Fuse Bug Fix? Well... since no one updates latest Dori and such...
2. Is the "Speedup Key Resume" feature on Apolo added here as well? This makes S2W more responsive, so I like it...
3. Is Swap feature enabled? I'm trying to Swap from /preload but Apolo and Gustavo doesn't have one. Forgot wether Dori has it...
4. Will you add the screen-color-changing feature from Gustavo to here as well?Or is it already in here?
Thanks for the continuing the development, man... :good:
:good:
I simply just wanted to post a "thanks you", instead of just hitting the thanks button, which I 've done many times, for keeping alive and updating the best (for me) kernel ever developed for S2.
V005 works great with trim enabled.:thumbup:
And UBER makes it even smoother lets see how the battery will go...

Fusebug and screen color changing is big thing I want them too. But I did not notice anything about speedup key resume on apolo. It's just like old builds
Latest DorimanX v10.44 v008 has fusebug fix.
TCP algorithms finally fixed. Can be changed in apps like trickstermod.
Edit: You can now select TCP algorithm in others tab.

Unofficial DorimanX builds by Saber (formerly gsstudios)
Development has ended.
The Background:
DorimanX development has stopped for a while now. I've been a long term dorimanx user, but I felt that a lot of features need to be implemented into the kernel. As of a result, I decided to make my own personal builds! Please note that I'm no way as good as the master himself, Dorimanx, but I try to implement features to the best of my abilities. Also, I'm not going to be a proper maintainer of dorimanx kernel, this is just what I've done in my spare time.
If you have problems or if anything goes wrong, you need to reflash your current ROM to revert kernel.
The Mission:
To continue giving support for the much loved kernel. New features and additions will be added to improve flexibility and speed to the already amazing kernel. My goal is to improve DorimanX kernel as much as I can, without sacrificing stability.
DISCLAIMER:
ONLY FOR AOSP BASED ROMS
I'm not responsible for bricked devices or wrong version flashing
You are using this kernel at your own responsibility
——— !!!!!!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !!!!!!!! ———
FEATURES:
This kernel includes the following additional features over stock dorimanX kernel:
- CPU Governors: HYPER, Ondemand, pegasusQ, Intellidemand, neoX, darkness, nightmare, zzmoove, sleepy, conservative (Default: HYPER)
- IO Schedulers: ROW, Tripndroid, FIOPS, SIOPlus, BFQ, CFQ, Noop, ZEN, Deadline (Default: ZEN)
- TCP Algorithms: Cubic, Reno, BIC, Westwood, Highspeed, Hybla, HTCP, Vegas, Veno, Scalable, Lp, Yeah, Illinois (Default: Westwood)
- Built with Latest Linaro 4.9/UBER 6.1 Toolchains
- Built-in Stweaks profiles updated (All profiles suit needs for most people now)
- Trim support (Be careful if you have brickbug affected chip!)
- Updated FPBug/Musicbug fix is already included in this kernel!
- BLN and BLNWW support
- Updated Linux Kernel version to 3.15.0 stable!
- Freezefix is already included in this kernel!
- Isorec support
- Low Latency Audio bugfix is included in this kernel
- MDNIE mode and scenario tuning
- F2FS support
THINGS TO DO:
- Provide an actual fix for device off battery charging animation
- Allow users to dirty flash ROM to restore original kernel
- Fix cache partition wipe on Resurrection Remix ROM
THINGS I WILL NOT ADD:
- LZ4 Compression (Our Boot partition is way too small to support this)
- Useless CPU governors such as Userspace
- Colour tuning support (Unless someone helps me with this)
- Recovery version (Will only consider doing this if working on LP kernel)
- Higher thermal limits (We all know what happens if we do this)
- Higher overclocking/Lower underclocking capabilities (So you want less stability and more SODs?)
- Synapse support (Stweaks is the only app that can fully support this kernel)
- Linux Kernel version updates (My skills need to improve first before taking on something this big)

- Match stweaks descriptions with actual default values
- Merged updates to CFQ io scheduler - Better performance
- Disabled MMC CRC check - Better I/O performance
- Deleted all zipalign functions! it's no longer supported with ART in LP. - Fixed possible nasty bug that would have deleted all app symlinks in /data/app. Before zipalign was enabled by default for performance profiles! Now all good :)
- Stweaks profile will be reset!
- Remove all fix permissions functions. It is old and broken. Lollipop is much more advanced compared to jellybean 4.3 so there is much less chance of apps breaking after a ROM update.
- CORTEX: move OOM fix to cortex to set on each wakeup. Thanks to DorimanX. Before this, the default ROM OOM values were being used after boot, the kernel was not always overriding ROM values and causing slower performance. This fixes this issue.
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b028 (STABLE)[/B]
- Merged a few kernel updates from CM13
- Removed ability to tune vfs_cache_pressure. This is required for cortexbrain to function properly. If you tune it, the kernel script will not run!

[B]DorimanX 11.0 b027 (STABLE)[/B]
- Updated OOM profiles to better match CM Marshmallow and DorimanX LG G2 LP values
- UBER 5.3 Toolchain updated to 01/02/16 build
- Added HOTPLUG tab to stweaks. All hotplug config is now grouped together, minor fixes to spelling
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b026 (BETA)[/B]
- Merged many workqueue updates from linux mainline kernel - Improvements to stability, performance and battery life
- Merged updates to tcp_yeah
- Disabled auditd service to remove selinux related logspam
- Low latency audio fix will be applied on boot. DorimanX doesn't support low latency audio which causes games using recent unity versions to sound horrible. Thanks to @dualjoe. If you want to re-enable low latency audio, reflash rom and use different kernel!
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b025 (BETA) - LAST BUILD FOR NON-TRIM AND UBER 4.9[/B]
- Synced chhapil's zram updates
- LZ4 is set as the default algorithm for zram. I have properly checked now and it is all good. You can see this under /sys/block/zram0/comp_algorithm, where the algorithm inside the brackets is the active one.
[COLOR="Red"]- This will be the last build for NON-TRIM and UBER 4.9. TRIM should be used by everyone and UBER 4.9 is just unnecessary extra toolchain.
[/COLOR]- Changed default I/O scheduler to CFQ. This was Samsung's default choice and it was a good choice. LP needs as much I/O performance we can get, so simpler schedulers are not that great :)
- Merged many zram updates up to what the kernel can allow. This is the max zram can update to before causing build errors.
- UBER 5.3 builds will be moved to the UBER main folder. Not experimental anymore :)
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b024 (BETA)[/B]
- BLN is properly fixed now without having to modify install script thanks to realex-fire
- Fixed stweaks not installing on kernel install thanks to realex-fire
- Many other changes to kernel init system thanks to realex-fire
- LZ4 support on the ZRAM thanks to @chhapil. Changed default compression to LZ4. Before we were using LZO which was slower but gave slightly better compression. LZ4 is much faster but gives slightly worse compression. TL;DR, better performance :) Edit: Wasn't sure if it was really enabled by default because there was no way to check.
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b023 (BETA)[/B]
- BLN is now working!!! I simply updated the updater-script to delete old lights.exynos4.so from ROM and add new one to /system/lib/hw. Thanks @charlie8104 and @arnab If BLN doesn't work, reflash the kernel and make sure to reapply BLN after boot. This should fix BLN for most people :)
- sched: Set MC (multi-core) sched domain's busy_factor attribute to 1. This will increase CPU performance.
- fixed compilations warnings thanks to @chhapil
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b022 (BETA)[/B]
- Changed swappiness drop down to slider. Allow users to select a more precise percentage.
- Limit boot booster frequency to a max of 1.4Ghz. Anything higher will cause many devices not to boot :) Plus there are very few CPUs out there that can run higher than this config.
- Added lowmem_reserved_ratio tuning to stweaks thanks to @dorimanX. A higher ratio will give you more free RAM if you see that your free RAM is always loaded and device LAG, but it's also uses more battery to gain more free RAM with loaded system. Please don't use the relaxed setting as you will run out of RAM very easily.
- Isorec recovery support. Many thanks to lanchon who has been working with me for the past few days. If you require to dualboot, don't use isorec recovery. I have linked the isorec disabler for people who want dualboot/dorimanx recovery. Also, TWRP can't mount USB storage so you won't be able to transfer files between PC, go back to CWM to fix this. We have isorec on DorimanX :) However this is still a WIP.
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b021 (BETA)[/B]
- Synced missing cortexbrain changes and typo fixes from KK initramfs
- zzmoove will now use alucard as the default hotplugging driver.
- Add toggle for power efficient workqueues. Enable to save power, disable for performance. Fixed parameter permissions. If you disable this, Cortexbrain will automatically switch on this during sleep state to save battery. Avoid using Kernel Adiutor to set this value as stweaks can do this properly.
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b020 (STABLE)[/B]
- Full update to 2016 January CM12.1 Ramdisk - Stability improved, smoother operation and better experience. Thanks realex-fire!
- Bugs fixes and dorimanx features fixed from previous ramdisk updates
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b019 (BETA)[/B]
- GCC 5.x support. Starting from this build, we will see UBER 5.3 experimental builds for those who want the best performance they can get. Thanks @chhapil
- Toolchain GCC Version is also included now in zip file name so we don't get confused
- Ramdisk updated once again to CM12.1 October 15th build
- Remove root installer and remover from stweaks to prevent people from breaking root
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b018 (STABLE)[/B]
- Many changes to the LMK/OOM management. Synced values with DorimanX LG G2 and CM12.1. Now much more aggressive than before. Prior to this was the reason why we had such bad RAM management.
- All profiles are now set to default OOM settings. Default is now the same as the settings found in stock CM12.1.
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b017 (BETA)[/B]
- Fixed all issues found in previous build
- Bring back SIO scheduler, deleted SIOPlus (Doesn't work on DorimanX)
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b016 (BETA) - BUGGED AND REMOVED[/B]
- Synced missing futex updates from Linux 3.15 stable
- Reduced swappiness from 40 to 20 (ZRam will only be used under heavy load, rather than in medium loads)
- UBER toolchain updated to 2016-01-11 build
- This build will be built with Linaro and UBER (From now on, I will be naming builds with the selected toolchain)
- Updated SIO to SIOPlus
- tick: Fix a bug which impacts CPU frequency scaling
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b015 (BETA)[/B]
- Reduced swappiness from 60 to 40 (Will only swap when under heavier loads, before it was too aggressive)
- Includes latest LP freeze fix patch from Zeitferne (Note: This is not the final fix, this is an attempt to solve current freeze issues. If you want to help debug, use the proper kernel given by Zeitferne!)
- This build will be built with Linaro and UBER
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b014 (BETA)[/B]
- Enabled zram and set zram to 300MB by default
- Synced all net, TCP Cubic, ipv4, ipv6 and mutex updates from KK branch
- Change the VM_MAX_READAHEAD value to 512KB for best throughput
- Upstreamed kernel version to 3.15.0 stable! Lots and lots of fixes for various parts of the kernel, once again, thanks to realex-fire for contributing! ;)
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b013 (BETA) - Linaro[/B]
- This build is built with latest Linaro 4.9 from Christopher83
- Comes with all changes from original b013 release
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b013 (BETA)[/B]
- Synced missing changes from KK branch thanks to @Realex-fire
- Reverted initramfs changes from CM12.1 (Not required to get CM12.1 running smooth, I think this introduced issues)
- Updated UBER toolchain to 20151031 build
- Fixed derp in Samsung WL Bug patch (Doesn't make a difference since our phone is not affected anyway. Looks like I will have to recreate the patch files again :) )
- Reverted I/O scheduler updates
- Tuned I/O scheduler fifo batch and other tweaks
- Changed OOM behavior so it is more aggressive, this would be a big advantage for people with lots of apps running!
- Last release built with UBER toolchain
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b012 (BETA)[/B]
[B]This is a long awaited update that should make cyanogenmod experience better again!!![/B]
- Changed toolchain back to UBER 4.9 and updated to latest version
- Updated Cyanogenmod ramdisk to October 15th
- Fixed all zzmoove tunables in stweaks. I'm not adding more tunables for zzmoove since it will cause stability issues.
- proper zzmoove profile switching has been added (previous solution was more of a workaround).
- Allow tunable mode for zzmoove (It's just no profile set, this is required if you want to manually adjust zzmoove values)
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b011 (BETA)[/B]
- Revert Custom profiles 1, 2 and 3 and related fixes
- Revert GPU changes
- Updated default profile
- Revert Partitions and Root tab
- Updated UBER 4.8 toolchain to latest
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b010 (BETA)[/B]

- More work on Wifi-driver to get Ad-hoc networks working (Still not working yet)
- Many minor changes to stweaks descriptions
- Updated kernel update check function (Doesn't work yet, I think it's because there is 2 'v' in the kernel version and build version, in other words it is a WIP!)
- We're moving back to Linaro 4.9 (Less bugs, more performance!)
[B]DorimanX 11.0 b005 (BETA)[/B]

- Updated to latest UBER toolchain
- Switched to UBER 4.9 toolchain instead of 4.8
- Revert: "allowed IO Read Ahead up to 4096KB"

Downloads
--STOP!!! IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ--
It is important that you make a backup before flashing this kernel. If you want to restore the original kernel found in your ROM, you need to restore from a backup or clean flash your ROM.
MAKE SURE YOU'RE DOWNLOADING THE RIGHT KERNEL. OTHERWISE YOU COULD BRICK YOUR DEVICE!
For TRIM users:
To use TRIM, you can download an app on the app store called trimmer or use terminal commands as directed in the troubleshooting guide.
Isorec (Isolated Recovery)
Starting from build b022, I have introduced isorec into DorimanX kernel. You can use either TWRP or CWM. It is important to note that the default CWM recovery has kernel specific options within the menus, so if you require to use them, be sure to flash the isorec disabler.
Download for isorec recoveries:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=47550
If you have a dualboot setup or if you want to set up dualboot, you should stay on StanTRC recovery. If you want to return to StanTRC recovery, flash the isorec disabler:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960682947
Forgot to download backup/older kernel/isorec disabler after flashing TWRP?
Go to download mode and flash a kernel .tar file OR wait until OS boots and copy required files to your phone
Which build should I use?
Linaro 4.9: Use this build for best stability. Battery life is better than UBER 6.1 and is the smoothest. Most users should use these builds.
UBER 6.1: Use this build for best performance. UBER 6.1 contains bleeding edge optimizations that may not be fully reliable yet, so this toolchain is better suited for advanced users.
Go with the build that is the best for you. You are the one that is making the changes so you are responsible for choosing what experience you want with the kernel! If you are still not sure which build to choose, use the Linaro 4.9 build first.

Beta builds and stable builds will only be uploaded on AFH and github.
In order to tweak the kernel properly, you need to install stweaks from the play store, or from the apk linked here, or from the XDA downloads page, or from the apk in the attachments below:
Troubleshooting
For general help, please use the Q&A thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/qa-dorimanx-lp-5-x-x-t3161661
Q: Why flash your kernel? - For new users of DorimanX kernel
DorimanX kernel is an aftermarket kernel (or custom kernel) that is designed to allow users to tweak their phone at the kernel or near-hardware level side of things. In other words, users get more fine-grained control over their phone, this includes overclocking, underclocking, changing behavior of CPU/GPU etc. Adjusting such settings isn't for the faint-hearted since there is many things to understand, but you aren't required to understand all of the settings. Ultimately, if you want to improve your phone experience, try DorimanX kernel!
Q:How do I flash your kernel?
A: You flash kernels like flashing ROMs, except you don't have to factory reset your phone. However, if you are official CM12.1 nightly, you will have to flash the kernel differently (if you want to flash my old unsigned builds).
Method A: If you get signature verification errors, you need to sign the zip with a program like Sign-em or Sign+.
Method B: To flash this kernel on official CM12.1 nightly, you first need to flash Philz recovery on your phone via ODIN. Here is the link to the for philz recovery: Philz Touch Recovery After that, you can flash the kernel like normal.
Method C: Another way is to create a kernel .tar file by extracting the zimage file located in /boot folder of the kernel zip then create a .tar archive. Then flash it in ODIN. Here is the guide to create your own kernel tar file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/convert-kernel-zip-to-tar-t2994381 For your convenience, I've create a tar file of build b002 in the guide linked.
Q: Which kernel version build should I flash?
A: Flash the latest stable version if you want the most stable experience. Beta builds will always have the latest features and should be fine to use as a daily driver. Stable builds have been thoroughly tested for issues, but are usually older than current builds. Either way, it's up to you which one you want to flash. Read the changelog for any important changes that might have occurred in a particular build.
Q: Which app should I use to tweak the kernel?
You should only use stweaks to tune DorimanX kernel.
Q: Can I use isorec recovery on DorimanX kernel?
A: Yes you can. All important information was covered in the OP already!
Q: Why should I flash your builds when the last 'real' unofficial build was v008?
A: If you don't want to enjoy awesome features that improve the experience of dorimanx kernel, then it doesn't worry me. Real or not, I don't build kernels to have bad battery life, bad stability and etc. This is my personal build of dorimanx kernel!
Q: Wifi doesn't work after I flash this kernel
A: There are several possible causes to this issue, there could be a problem with your:
- Partitions OR
- Permissions OR
- Gapps OR
- ROM OR
- Compatibility with your wifi hardware
Don't use a pit with modded preload! It will just cause issues with ROMs and Kernels. Use stock pit or use a pit with unmodded preload. Sometimes, the gapps package you flash somehow breaks compatibility with the kernel. You can fix this by flashing a different gapps (making sure to clean cache and dalvik). If you have permissions problem, you can fix this by repartitioning your internal sd card or by reflashing back to stock rom. Sometimes, the ROM doesn't fully support the wireless drivers in the kernel, this can be solved by flashing a different ROM or different kernel. But if your wifi hardware is not compatible (a way to tell this is when you have tried everything and failed), there is nothing you can do but reflash the rom or flash a different kernel.
Q: I came from a different custom kernel that used Stweaks, now the app has issues
A: Every time you come from a different custom kernel with stweaks support, make sure to wipe cache and dalvik cache after install dorimanx kernel
Q: My battery life sucks after flashing this kernel!
A: Download and install Betterbatterystats and see what is the culprit to your problem. If it is kernel related, have you made sure you have wipe cache and dalvik and reset stweaks settings? If yes, it would be nice if you posted a logcat.
Q: How do I get a logcat for the kernel?
A: In stweaks, go to BUG-REPORT and tap on KERNEL-BUG.
Q: Why do I get bootloops with this kernel?
A: If you were on a working version on dorimanx before, there is probably something wrong with the installation. Sometimes, bootloops can occur due to corruption of the kernel zip file (usually from bad download) or from corrupted partitions.
Q: What do all of the settings mean? They are all confusing!
A: Please note that DorimanX kernel isn't for users who have just rooted their device. Before jumping into the custom kernel world, try playing around with other kernels first. Once you think you have some experience, read the stweaks beginners guide I made and then attempt to tweak the kernel using stweaks.
Q: How do I trim my partitions?
BEWARE: Make sure you have read all of the precautions before attempting to trim your partitions!
A: install the trimmer app from the playstore. App link . Check for all 3 partitions, and tap on run. grant root access. the 3 fstrim operations should be successful ("partition was trimmed" means success).
alternatively, instead of using trimmer you can run one of these commands (these are better because they also trim /preload):
# on the phone in the terminal app:
su -c "fstrim -v /system; fstrim -v /data; fstrim -v /cache; fstrim -v /preload"
# on your PC if you are connected to the phone via adb:
adb shell su -c "fstrim -v /system; fstrim -v /data; fstrim -v /cache; fstrim -v /preload"
reboot.

Q: My device is (hard) bricked after flashing your kernel!
A: Have you read all of the precautions before installing the kernel? You made the decision to flash the kernel and now you've stuffed up your phone.
Q: I get constant FCs after flashing your kernel!
A: Have you wiped your cache partition, dalvik cache and reset stweaks settings? If you've done all of these already, a logcat would be nice
Q: How do I use dual boot?
A: There are many guides on how to dual boot roms using dorimanx kernel. Just use the search function on XDA or GOOGLE it!
Q: What's a good combination for CPU governor and I/O scheduler?
A: Have a look at the default settings, they are optimised for our phone
However, here are some settings I recommend:
CPU Governor: HYPER/zzmoove/Darkness
I/O Scheduler: CFQ/BFQ/ZEN/Deadline/SIO
Q: Why does the screen turn blank after the dorimanx logo appears during the boot process?
A: If your kernel doesn't bootloop, but the screen remains blank, there is a good chance that the ROM that you've used uses an older version of GPU drivers (Mali). This kernel only support ROMs with Maliv3 support. If you flash this kernel on MaliV2 or MaliV1 only roms, you will get a blank screen after flashing. To fix this, flash to the kernel the corresponds to your mali driver version and you should get your display back.
Q: What is a TCP algorithm?
A: Congestion control strategies (or algorithms) are used by TCP, the data transmission protocol used by many Internet applications. The main goal of a TCP algorithm is to avoid sending more data than the network is capable of transmitting, that is, to avoid causing network congestion.
Q: What is a toolchain?
In software, a toolchain is the set of programming tools that are used to create a product (typically another computer program or system of programs). The tools may be used in a chain, so that the output of each tool becomes the input for the next, but the term is used widely to refer to any set of linked development tools.
A simple software development toolchain consists of a compiler and linker to transform the source code into an executable program, libraries to provide interfaces to the operating system, and a debugger. A complex product such as a video game needs tools for preparing sound effects, music, textures, 3-dimensional models, and animations, and further tools for combining these resources into the finished product.

Q: What is UBER?
A: After years of using different custom toolchains like Linaro and SaberMod, I found there were things I liked about both of them but also things that didn't sit quite as well with me. SaberMod always seemed to have UI lag (especially in scrolling) but opened apps well and Linaro always seemed to be buttery smooth but had terrible app opening speed. Linaro battery was also worse for me than SaberMod. After going back and forth between toolchains I finally had this epiphany! Why not just take all of the best parts of all toolchains and merge them into one? So I began bringing up my own toolchain from gnu.org. At first I patched in all of the AOSP toolchain pactches (much like how SaberMod did it originally however it is important that you realize that No! I did not copy and paste SaberMod into my source I'm simply stating that I used their idea of merging aosp into gnu.org) to my source. Then I went through and added all of the linaro patches that I could to the source. I also made sure that I had the very latest of every toolchain component. I then made very minimal changes to the aosp toolchain build folder to allow for building with these newer toolchain components and UBERTC was born!!! (Note: both Linaro and SaberMod both made lots of modifications to the toolchain build folder, UBERTC is the closest to the aosp build process)

I'm still building it right now. Will upload soon, will have my features from my personal builds on top of lysergic acids fixes.
First build up. Can't test since I'm on kitkat rom right now. Will update to LP when I have the chance to.
Ah man...... Here It is, great can you make a non trim version, pretty plsí*½í¸Š

I'm not on my PC right now. Probably will upload new build tomorrow (running out of space in my build machine). Would be great if someone reports the issues they encounter and what's working.
Great to see a dedicated thread for Dorimanx Kernel for S2's lollipop support.....Subscribed and will be testing whenever I get time....Great job man....Good luck....
I tried it so far both on SlimLP and Omni and failed to boot on both. Bootloop on SlimLP and stuck on boot on Omni. Gonna keep on testing though.
Edit: Managed to boot on CM12.1 finally. Let's see how it goes.

Only cm12.1 ramdisk was merged. I'm working with lysergic acid and hopefully warrior to get it working on more roms.
little report about dualboot
Hi all, i quoted myself and about what i have done.
maybe that can help for more test, i found one rom that dualbooted, didnt test another for now.
And , i forgot to add yesterday that sdcard (int card) wasnt mounted when i ran 2nd LP rom.
thanks.

Hi @Lysergic Acid, sory for OT, little report about DUALBOOT i gave a try about it right now
i was on SlimLP build#12 from @warrior1208, runing Apolo 8 beta9 EXTv2.
i backuped SlimLP and formatted cache/dalvik/data
then i flashed pac_i9100_LP-MR1.Beta-2.Unofficial_20150628-122342 , new release from @phenomarc.
i rebooted the rom with his stock kernel and let it run 15min.
then, reboot recovery and i flashed your DORIMANX LP version and rebbot, the pac_i9100_LP-MR1.Beta-2 booted fine.
then , i rebooted again recovery (STANtrc) and restored the previous build from @phenomarc with my TBO black modified i have , on 2nd rom space i have kept with old SPIRIT 4.4.4, and rebooted .
At boot, this time i choose 2nd rom , and 2nd rom booted !
Thanks , You save dualboot for US , Man , ITS ENORMOUS

No idea which language it is.
Dori for LP on S2, didn't see that coming, but will test asap with Slimsaber LP, and check if it works. Pedestre stopped apolo development and gustavo's kernel is also kinda dead so it's the only one left.
Don't drop it please!

It won't boot on Slimsaber LP at the moment, only CM12.1 based ROM, ramdisk incompatibility.
Edit : Apolo 8 beta 9 Omni boots slimsaber fine by the way, sorry didn't mean to speak of another kernel here.
Sorry for stupid question... Is this twrp based?
Or is that complete other?
Works for AOSP roms, right?

It's indeed for AOSP ROMs It's CWM based. I'm currently using it with CM12.1 by @Lysergic Acid.

Unofficial DorimanX builds by gsstudios(The resurrection of jellybean kernels)
Development has been discontinued due to commitment to lollipop roms
The Background:
DorimanX development has stopped for a while now. I've been a long term dorimanx user, but I felt that a lot of features need to be implemented into the kernel. As of a result, I decided to make my own personal builds! Please note that I'm no way as good as the master himself, Dorimanx, but I try to implement features to the best of my abilities. Also, I'm not going to be a proper maintainer of dorimanx kernel, this is just what I've done in my spare time.
If you have problems or if anything goes wrong, you can flash latest build by Computoncio
You can download from his official website:
http://dorimanx.casoncia.org/
The Mission:
To continue giving support for the much loved kernel. New features and additions will be added to improve flexibility and speed to the already amazing kernel. My goal is to improve DorimanX kernel as much as I can, without sacrificing stability.
NO LOLLIPOP SUPPORT HERE. JUST 4.1.X - 4.3.X JELLYBEAN ONLY!
STOCK JB ROM IS SUPPORTED HERE
DISCLAIMER:
ONLY FOR AOSP BASED ROMS
I'm not responsible for bricked devices or wrong version flashing
You are using this kernel at your own responsibility
——— !!!!!!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !!!!!!!! ———
FEATURES:
This kernel includes the following additional features over stock dorimanX kernel:
- CPU Governors: HYPER, Ondemand, pegasusQ, Intellidemand, neoX, darkness, nightmare, zzmoove, powersave, sleepy, conservative, performance (Default: HYPER)
- IO Schedulers: ROW, Tripndroid, FIOPS, SIO, BFQ, CFQ, Noop, ZEN, Deadline (Default: SIO)
- TCP Algorithms: Cubic, Reno, BIC, Westwood, Highspeed, Hybla, HTCP, Vegas, Veno, Scalable, Lp, Yeah, Illinois (Default: Westwood)
- Updated SuperSU
- Built with Latest Optimized Linaro 4.9 Toolchain (Smooth, fast and fluid)
- Built-in Stweaks profiles updated (All profiles suit needs for most people now)
- Trim support (Be careful if you have brickbug affected chip!)
- Updated FPBug fix is already included in this kernel!
- Updated Linux Kernel version to 3.15 stable!
THINGS TO DO:
- Why don't you tell me what to do
THINGS I WILL NOT ADD:
Code:
- LZ4 Compression (Our Boot partition is way too small to support this)
- Useless CPU governors such as Userspace
- Colour tuning support (Unless someone helps me with this)
- Recovery version (WIll only consider doing this if working on LP kernel)
- Higher thermal limits (We all know what happens if we do this)
- Higher overclocking/Lower underclocking capabilities (So you want less stability and more SODs?)
- Synapse support (Stweaks is the only app that can fully support this kernel)
- Linux Kernel version updates (My skills need to improve first before taking on something this big)

Downloads
I test most of these builds to make sure they are stable. There may be some cases where I might not test out a build before releasing it. Kernels marked with '(STABLE)' are safe for everyday use, but only take this as a indication.
--IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ--
CAUTION: All builds marked with 'TRIM' at the end has TRIM enabled. If you have brickbug affected emmc chip, avoid downloading it if you don't know what you are doing! For more information about the trim brickbug, visit Lanchon's guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ives/rom-brickbug-aftermath-speeding-t2843238
All builds without 'TRIM' (marked as 'NON-TRIM') have trim disabled. These kernels are safe on brickbug affected chips.
MAKE SURE YOU'RE DOWNLOADING THE RIGHT KERNEL. OTHERWISE YOU COULD BRICK YOUR DEVICE!
For TRIM users:
To use TRIM, you can download an app on the app store called trimmer or use terminal commands as directed in the troubleshooting guide.
Linaro or UBER
I have constantly changed between UBER and Linaro toolchains, and have stuck with UBER toolchain. Choose whichever you believe is best for you. UBER is just Linaro toolchain with extra patches and updated components for speed and smoothness improvements. Linaro is more simplistic and stable.
Which version to choose?
9.x support = 4.1.y, 4.2.y, 4.3.y, 4.4.y maliv2 only! LATEST: DorimanX 9.45 by gsstudios - ROMS include CM10.1.3
8.x support = STOCK, 4.1.y, 4.2.y, 4.3.y, 4.4.y maliv1(STOCK) maliv2 all the rest! LATEST: DorimanX 8.45 by gsstudios - ROMS include Stock 4.1.2 JB, NeatROM, Omega ROM
mali = video driver (for new users that dont care to look for answers)
STOCK = Stock 4.1.2 Jellybean Update for s2

Click to collapse
And finally, I always see the question on whether to use TRIM or NON-TRIM builds. I recommend using TRIM builds on all devices, even if you have brickbug affected chip. This is because TRIM builds are safe from brickbug as they have been correctly patched up and so it has been used by many users. However, when in doubt, use NON-TRIM builds.

Troubleshooting
(Probably one of the most detailed troubleshooting guides for kernels on XDA)
Q: Why flash your kernel? - For new users of DorimanX kernel
This applies to dorimanx kernel in general. Dorimanx kernel is an aftermarket kernel (or custom kernel) that is designed to allow users to tweak their phone at the kernel or near-hardware level side of things. In other words, users get more fine-grained control over their phone, this includes overclocking, underclocking, changing behavior of CPU/GPU etc. Adjusting such settings isn't for the faint-hearted since there is soooo many things to understand, but you aren't required to understand all of the settings. Ultimately, if you want to improve your phone experience, try dorimanx kernel!
Have a look at one of my posts on the thoughts on using my own kernel on neatrom (STOCK JB): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63063198&postcount=23
Q:How do I flash your kernel?
A: You flash kernels like flashing roms, except you don't have to factory reset your phone. If you can't flash the kernel for some reason, you can either flash philz recovery then flash the kernel OR you can just make your own kernel .tar file and flash via ODIN by following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/convert-kernel-zip-to-tar-t2994381
Q: Which kernel version build should I flash?
A: Flash the latest stable version if you want the most stable experience. Builds that have not been marked with 'Stable' are mostly stable, or haven't been tested enough to earn a stable tag. Either way, it's up to you which one you want to flash. Read the changelog for any important changes that might have occurred in a particular build.
Q: What is the difference between v8.XX and v9.XX builds?
A: The 8.XX kernel branch was supposed to be the universal kernel that could be used for stock users and 4.2.X users as well as 4.3.X users. To be more specific, the 8.XX kernel branch has 2 GPU drivers for maliv1 and maliv2 roms, meaning that more ram needs to be allocated for the GPU. There isn't much of a performance difference using one or the other if you are on maliv2 rom, however one branch may get specific optmisations that are not present in others. In other words, choose the kernel version that you require, not the one that will support the most android versions. STOCK 4.1.2 users should use 8.XX builds, whereas 4.2.X and 4.3.X users should use 9.XX builds, depending on the ROMs mali (GPU driver) version.
Q: Wifi doesn't work after I flash this kernel
A: There are two main causes to this issue, either there is a problem with your:
- Partitions OR
- Permissions OR
- Gapps OR
- ROM OR
- Compatibility with your wifi hardware
Don't use a pit with modded preload! It will just cause issues with ROMs and Kernels. Use stock pit or use a pit with unmodded preload. Sometimes, the gapps package you flash somehow breaks compatibility with the kernel. You can fix this by flashing a different gapps (making sure to clean cache and dalvik). If you have permissions problem, you can fix this by repartitioning your internal sd card or by reflashing back to stock rom. Sometimes, the ROM doesn't fully support the wireless drivers in the kernel, this can be solved by flashing a different ROM or different kernel. But if your wifi hardware is not compatible (a way to tell this is when you have tried everything and failed), there is nothing you can do but reflash the rom or flash a different kernel.
Q: My sd cards don't mount after I flash dorimanX kernel!
A: Please check the format (or file system) of your sd cards. DorimanX kernel doesn't support ext4 formatted sd cards and hence you can't see them. You will need to format the sd cards to fat32 or other format.
Q: I came from a different custom kernel that used Stweaks, now the app has issues
A: Every time you come from a different custom kernel with stweaks support, make sure to wipe cache and dalvik cache after install dorimanx kernel
Q: My battery life sucks after flashing this kernel!
A: Download and install Betterbatterystats and see what is the culprit to your problem. If it is kernel related, have you made sure you have wipe cache and dalvik and reset stweaks settings? If yes, it would be nice if you posted a logcat.
Q: How do I get a logcat for the kernel?
A: In stweaks, go to BUG-REPORT and tap on KERNEL-BUG.
Q: Why do I get bootloops with this kernel?
A: If you were on a working version on dorimanx kitkat before, there is probably something wrong with the installation. If you are on a ROM that is not kitkat, you flash the wrong kernel! You need to flash the right kernel for your android version. Sometimes, bootloops can occur due to corruption of the kernel zip file (usually from bad download) or from corrupted partitions.
Q: What do all of the settings mean? They are all confusing!
A: Please note that DorimanX kernel isn't for users who have just rooted their device. Before jumping into the custom kernel world, try playing around with other kernels first. Once you think you have some experience, read the stweaks beginners guide I made and then attempt to tweak the kernel using stweaks.
Q: How do I trim my partitions?
BEWARE: Make sure you have read all of the precautions before attempting to trim your partitions!
A: install the trimmer app from the playstore. App link . Check for all 3 partitions, and tap on run. grant root access. the 3 fstrim operations should be successful ("partition was trimmed" means success).
alternatively, instead of using trimmer you can run one of these commands (these are better because they also trim /preload):
# on the phone in the terminal app:
su -c "fstrim -v /system; fstrim -v /data; fstrim -v /cache; fstrim -v /preload"
# on your PC if you are connected to the phone via adb:
adb shell su -c "fstrim -v /system; fstrim -v /data; fstrim -v /cache; fstrim -v /preload"
reboot.

Q: My device is (hard) bricked after flashing your kernel!
A: Have you read all of the precautions before installing the kernel? You made the decision to flash the kernel and now you've stuffed up your phone.
Q: I get constant FCs after flashing your kernel!
A: Have you wiped your cache partition, dalvik cache and reset stweaks settings? If you've done all of these already, a logcat would be nice
Q: How do I use dual boot?
A: There are many guides on how to dual boot roms using dorimanx kernel. Just use the search function on XDA or GOOGLE it!
Q: What's a good combination for CPU governor and I/O scheduler?
A: Have a look at the default settings, they are optimised for our phone
However, here are some settings I personally like:
1. Governor: HYPER/Ondemand I/O scheduler:SIO/SIO
2. Governor: PegasusQ/Nightmare I/O scheduler: SIO/SIO
3. Governor: NeoX/Ondemand I/O scheduler: SIO/SIO
4. Governor: Nightmare/Nightmare I/O scheduler: SIO/SIO
Q: Why does the screen turn blank after the dorimanx logo appears during the boot process?
A: If your kernel doesn't bootloop, but the screen remains blank, there is a good chance that the ROM that you've used uses an older version of GPU drivers (Mali). This kernel only support ROMs with Maliv3 support. If you flash this kernel on MaliV2 or MaliV1 only roms, you will get a blank screen after flashing. To fix this, flash to the kernel the corresponds to your mali driver version and you should get your display back.
Q: What is a TCP algorithm?
A: Congestion control strategies (or algorithms) are used by TCP, the data transmission protocol used by many Internet applications. The main goal of a TCP algorithm is to avoid sending more data than the network is capable of transmitting, that is, to avoid causing network congestion.
Q: What is UBER?
A: After years of using different custom toolchains like Linaro and SaberMod, I found there were things I liked about both of them but also things that didn't sit quite as well with me. SaberMod always seemed to have UI lag (especially in scrolling) but opened apps well and Linaro always seemed to be buttery smooth but had terrible app opening speed. Linaro battery was also worse for me than SaberMod. After going back and forth between toolchains I finally had this epiphany! Why not just take all of the best parts of all toolchains and merge them into one? So I began bringing up my own toolchain from gnu.org. At first I patched in all of the AOSP toolchain pactches (much like how SaberMod did it originally however it is important that you realize that No! I did not copy and paste SaberMod into my source I'm simply stating that I used their idea of merging aosp into gnu.org) to my source. Then I went through and added all of the linaro patches that I could to the source. I also made sure that I had the very latest of every toolchain component. I then made very minimal changes to the aosp toolchain build folder to allow for building with these newer toolchain components and UBERTC was born!!! (Note: both Linaro and SaberMod both made lots of modifications to the toolchain build folder, UBERTC is the closest to the aosp build process)

No build up yet, will build sometime on Friday or on the weekend. (Internet speed is quite slow right now)
Also, out of the 3 branches I maintain, updates to this branch will be the slowest. (More work will be done on kitkat and lollipop kernels).
Works on 4.1.2?

Yep, Ubuntu 14.04 on Virtualbox. I just reinstalled the vm and still issue occurs. I think the connection between github and my pc is just slow, sometimes it is fast, but most of the time it is slow.

Releasing first build this afternoon. Will have most changes from my lp and kk kernel.
Hello guys. I have released my first personal build for the 9.XX branch of dorimanX kernel. You can download it from AFH or from github as I speak. Build v001 will contain most of the changes in KK and LP kernels, however some changes still need a bit more working. This is a massive upgrade over the original unofficial 9.xx branch which was inactive for a while. As I said earlier, I will not be working on this kernel branch as often compared to my KK and LP kernel.
@nhmanas, you got what you wished to see as what you said in my general fpbug suggestion thread
cheers, gsstudios

Hello everyone,
trying to compile my first kernel, i have some questions i hope you can answer
First, here is the kernel source code of my phone (http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=SM-G903F)
Second i use UberTC toolchain 4.9.4
Questions:
- Is it possible to update kernel (base is 3.10.67). According to kernel.org, 3.18 is available but dunno how to update.
- How to include i/o sch, gpu gov, cpu gov... I mean, do we need to take existing file from an already modified kernel with same processor or any other will be ok too ?
- How to add synapse / stweaks ... support ?
- Where to find commits from toolchains ? How to patch source code toolchain ?
I really thank you for any anwser / help
Nobody is able to help about my questions ? Really ?
