Knox fuse and Oem Unlock are two totally different things, so yes you need OEM Unlock enabled anyway or phone rejects unsigned binaries (recovery and kernel). Also kernel fakes the flag, not resets it☺

Thanks for the amazing kernel. Works fine on J510GN. May I ask? Does this kernel supports fast charging? I noticed that this kernel max at 720mAh..

I built the kernel for daily usage, so no it doesn't have fast charging support and probably I won't add it lel. Make sure you always use official Samsung charger to charge it fast

Hey! @BlackMesa123
Is it possible for you to extend support to the Galaxy Grand Prime? Because i saw A3 2015 on the list and its quite similar to our MSM8916 device.
We already have the Serenity ROM ported for our variant in our forums. GP TW N
