** Note: This kernel is end-of-life and will no more be maintained. There will be no LineageOS 15.1 or newer kernel be available anymore **
Hi Guys!
Thanks to one of my coworker at work which had no further usage for his Note 8 GT-N5110 i had recently the possibility to call it my own! I was very happy about that but what i instantly missed after powering on the device for the first time was the great boeffla kernel which runs very well on my S3 for quite some time now. So i decided to "route" some spare time into porting the boeffla kernel for n801x devices to n51x0 devices. After a „couple of days“ and after fighting around with git, merging things and stuff i can enjoy now the power of boeffla on this device too! Finally i want to share this kernel with the ones who maybe missed boeffla on a Note 8 too and of course with all others which maybe want to give it a try.. As it is pretty much complete and i didn't want to reinventing the wheel i did (in agreement with Lord Boeffla!) a shameless copy of his text from the n8x0 thread and changed the relevant parts for this version. It is and it should stay a Boeffla Kernel so i think it's not that “blasphemic” if i copy the Lord himself. btw. all credits to him!!
This is the thread about the ported version of the Boeffla-Kernel for Galaxy Note 8 n51x0 devices
Some of you might know Lord Boefflas kernel already from the Galaxy S3 area.
If you want to learn more about the kernel, it's features and how to configure what, I would recommend you to visit the Galaxy S3 thread of the kernel.
Notes:
This kernel (provided in separate images) should work on the following devices:
GT-N5110 (Wifi only), GT-N5100 (G3 modem) and GT-N5120 (G4/LTE modem) Only GT-N5110 versions are tested by me as i have no possibility to test the others! So feedback about how the kernel is working on a GT-N5100 and GT-N5120 would be highly appreciated, thx!
The kernel images are only for Samsung based Jelly Bean (Android 4.2.2) or Kit Kat (Android 4.4.2) roms!!! Do not install it on CM or AOSP based roms!!!
Kernel versions 1.x are only for Samsung based Jelly Bean 4.2.2 roms!!!
Kernel versions 2.x are only for Samsung based Kit Kat 4.4.2 roms!!!
Custom Roms:
This Kernel is not compatible with the yNote ROM because of modifications related to init process and removing SELinux!! But it should work for example with stock based custom roms like civatos CivZ roms!
WARNING: Be sure that u flash the right kernel for the right device !! Images are named accordingly so double check that u use the right one! Flashing a wrong version may brick your device !!
If you have questions to settings, presets, others configuration and wanna share your configuration, head over to the unofficial Boeffla-Config App Config sharing thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2621308

Lord Boefflas Objective
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
I will, also in future, only add features that make sense to me personally as well and are not against my initial objectives. You can always raise your wishes and requests, however there is absolutely no guarantee it will be implemented.
Quote Lord Boeffla:
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
dual boot (I do not need it)
f2fs - it is known to cause various issues and compatibility problems
anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
So do not even ask for it. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So i (ZaneZam) won't do that either but all the things Lord Boeffla decides to implement in the future will of course find their way into this kernel as long as it is possible to implement them plus/minus some little things i might find useful for the Note 8 devices but at the end always respecting Lord Boefflas Objective!
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: This kernel is only for Samsung based Jelly Bean (Android 4.2.2) and Samsung based Kit Kat (Android 4.4.2/GT-N5100 4.4.4) firmwares. Since 26.04.15 there are also CM12.x,CM13.x,LOS14.1 versions available. It is not designed to run on AOSP based roms!
SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT NEWER STOCK ROMS: to be able to use the KitKat kernel builds with newer roms like XXDNH2 or XXDNH3 stock roms or based ones u will need to patch your rom beforehand. due to mali API changes in these roms booting with custom kernels isn't possible. so you can now checkout and install civatos fix HERE (many thx and credits to him!) after patching the rom the kernel should boot fine! <-- 10.04.15 since kernel version 2.2 obsolete as it has been "fixed" in the kernel itself. nonetheless if u still face issues with newer roms then u can use civatos method in addition but for now it's not needed to boot the kernel on newer roms.
Kit Kat 4.4.4:
Since version 2.1 stable this kernel is compatible with the XXDNL5 rom for GT-N5100 devices.
CM12.x:
Since 26.04.2015 there are also CM12.0 and CM12.1 versions for GT-N5100 and GT-N5110 devices available. these are compatible with offical CyanogenMod 12.x roms and based ones.
CM13.x:
Since 17.04.2016 there are also CM13.0 versions for GT-N5100 and GT-N5110 devices available. these are compatible with offical CyanogenMod 13.0 roms and based ones.
Since 01.05.2016 there are also CM13.0 versions for GT-N5120 devices available. these are compatible with offical CyanogenMod 13.0 roms and based ones.
LineageOS 14.1:
Since 13.01.2017 there are also LineageOS/CM14.1 versions for GT-N5100, GT-N5110 and GT-N5120 devices available. these are compatible with offical LineageOS 14.1 roms and based ones.
Note: You need at least version 2.4.19 of Boeffla-Config V2 to allow all functionalities to be available.
Configuration of the kernel

... I just hope I did not forget someone. If so, please let me know and I will add you of course.
Thanks to all of you for your great work !!!
And special thanks from me to my friend Andi for letting this kernel-port exist „under his hood“ by providing it on his homepage and for supporting it in his Config App! Appreciate that much!!
Disclaimer
*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in CWM recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.
One last important note from me ZaneZam:
This is a contribution to the Boeffla Kernel project and not my own project! This port was made in agreement with Lord Boeffla but not by himself! I will support this ported version as good as i can, Lord Boeffla will not as he doesn't support versions for devices he doesn't own! So please if you have device specific questions ask them here and not in any other boeffla kernel thread, thanks!
Cheers and now enjoy the power of Boeffla on the Note 8!

Give this guy his cookie, can't wait till Samsung releases the KK kernel source to try this baby out.
yeah i'm waiting too to be able to start from scratch
Been waiting for this thank you.....tested kernel on civatos rom, works great no issues at all.battery life and performance are great. Boffella sound is awesome and the boffella config gives a little more control over audio than just boffella sound. Would love to see a aosp kernel with these features since no current 4.4.2 aosp or cm kernels have boffella sound working. I downgraded from 4.4.2 for this kernel and happy I did.... Thanks
Have flashed it on my N5100 running latest X-Note ROM.
After first flash, my screen was flickering.
Then I did cache and dalvik wipe and flashed again.
Now no flickering any more, but my GSM doesn't work any more.
So back to civz kernel.

first of all thx for your braveness *gg* and thx for the report!
as said unfortunately i cannot test versions other then the N5110, so i rely on your reports.
but maybe i can pinpoint the problem with your help at least if you still are willing to help,
that would be great but also isn't a problem if u refuse
another one with such a problem on GT-N5100 or GT-N5120?

One thing I noticed that is very important to me is docking mode is no longer supported with this kernel. Switch to civatos kernel it works again.dock mode supports USB host charging and HDMI at the same time all u need to do is place a 65k resistor between Id pin and ground on ur USB host cable.....very important to me since tablet is used in my car as a head unit... I'd appreciate any help.Maybe s3 uses a different resistance?

actually to be as near as possible to boeffla kernel I didn't activate it in config but will check that for u and maybe we have an beta 2 soon!
I appreciate that . I really want to get into kernel dev. I built a few windows 7 moded os. But seems u need Linux experience I only have some backtrack experience. Thanks for the reply. I'm always open to testing

Yep sorry I noticed that 4.2.2 kernel source hasn't been updated, just no time.
When I finish my KitKat kernel I will upload the source to github.
Will try to do that this weekend.
yeah i know that "time thingy" very well! thx looking forward to your update.

Still running this kernel working good. Battery life is amazing. Hopefully u can get docking mode figured out when u have time.
I'm surprised there aren't more people interested in this kernel. Give it a try with civs 4.2.2 build u won't regret it.

Just to make sure, this still doesn't support TW KitKat Roms? I read in the OP that is for jellybean roms.
Code:
*** Disclamer
1. You are installing this at your own risk
2. I am not responsible to brick ur device or like something damaged device.
3. This kernel is for Nexus 5, never ever ever install on other devices.(Well it's ur choice but i don't know what will happen next!)
4. This kernel is for CM-Based ROM(Non-Caf, I'm not sure whether boot in AOSP.)--Normal branch cm-12.1
What is this?
I have a 2 projects called KangDroid-Project(ROM) and this one: KangDroid-Kernel. And this is a KangDroid-Kernel.
This is ONLY AIM for Nexus 5 CyanogenMod 12 kernel, based on cm-12.1 branch(non-caf) and this kernel uses "Aroma" scripts for installing kernel. So it is highly customizable, user-friendly kernel.
Required Stuff
* Must based on CM.
* init.d support
* basic knowledge of flashing stuff
Functions?
* CM Basic-Functions
* Based on CyanogenMod 12.1 Source(Not caf, just cm-12.1 branch)
* Linux 3.4.107
* Support Multirom(That means Kexec-HardBoot)
* toolchain: use Self-Built Linaro 6.0.0
* Using Intelliplug as a default CPU Hotplug(MP-Decisions are disabled)
* Lots of Governor, Configurable in Installer: (Intelliactive, abyssplugV2, adaptive, badass, dancedance, darkness, hyper, intellidemand, intellimm, lazy, lionhearted, nightmare, ondemandplus, optimal, pegasus, slim, smartmax, smartmax_eps, uberdemand, wheatley, etc..)
* Lots of I/O Schedulers(BFQ, CFQ, deadline, fifo, fiops, no-op, row, sio, tripndroid, vr, zen)
* Random from 3.14
* Use intelli-thermalV2 for Thermal control.
* Faux Sound Control
* Voltage Control
* Configurable Fast Charge
* Configurable Fsync
* Configurable Sweep 2 sleep
* Configurable Sweep2Wake, DoubleTab2Wake(And it's vibration and timeout, PowerButton Support, gestures too!!)
* CPU OVERCLOCKING(USE AT OWN RISK)
* Configurable exFAT Support
* Aroma: Full translation for Korean(Yes I did cuz I'm Korean, don't say that do some translation for other language)
* And alot!
Download
Download is available at second thread, below this thread.
How to flash:
Flash as normal as other kernel:
1. Download and save wherever to sdcard.
2. goto recovery(I'm using TWRP/Multirom) and goto directory that u saved kernel.
3. flash, follow instructions and reboot and done.

Common Q&A
Q: When is next update?
A: Weekly so.. (Maybe Sundays, haven't decided yet.)
Q: Kernel Functions are not working, but i installed kernel successfully and in Settings, kernel version says right version. What happened?
A: Reboot device, and if that doesn't work, than check whether system has 99KangDroidKernel in /system/etc/init.d/99KangDroidKernel. Also, check for init.d support.
Q: Kernel/ROM doesn't boot at all. What should I do?
A: First restore your latest rom and check your rom that ur using CM based rom or aosp-based rom. I am not sure, but it might not work on aosp-based rom. This kernel is CM-Based Rom.(Non-Caf)
Q: When I enable S2W or DT2W, it causes battery drain I think. Am I correct?
A: Yes you are, S2W and DT2W Causes battery drain. To minimize drain, you might want to try timeout and Power Key support on Sleep-Misc settings in Aroma.
Q: When I enable Power Key support for S2W/DT2W, my S2W or DT2W aren't working.
A: When that settings enabled, and if you trigger power key, S2W and DT2W are stop working. To resurrect this features, maybe try Swipe to Sleep or DoubleTab on StatusBar Area to sleep(CM Features).
Q: I think I got a bug.
A: Than post to XDA or my project Facebook which mentioned on first thread. It's really usefull to get log like in terminal: su && cat /proc/kmsg and post it here. If you can't than you have to describe Specific details of bug and how to produce it.

bootloader??? you mean rom? This is not a rom! this is kernel. To able to flash my rom, you should have newest boot loader, but I think you don't need newest boot loader for this kernel.(Cuz this runs with Aroma.)

I'm sorry for my English, but you can not install the kernel in any rom
many thanks man
Overclocking: Use at own risk!
I have found that if I increase maximum frequency to 2.8ghz, and than, if I run Benchmark(I won't say which benchmark) about 25% of progress, it just reboots. This overclocking makes device really hot. Get ready for cooler if you use 2.8ghz everyday.
(Overclocking added on today's version, which is V1.1)
[64-bit][KERNEL][UBER-TC][15 Oct]Spirit.Kernel r3 [CAF]
Spirit Kernel
This kernel works on all the latest roms available which require new kernel source.
Statutory Warning: This kernel is not a feature bloated kernel like other kernels available, if you like tons of govs/io and hotplugs all in one and if you like to blow up your device, then you are at the wrong spot. This kernel will be minimal and only necessary features will be added.
A while back my users requested me to make a kernel which supports new ROMs(as few of them fail to). So I have decided to make a kernel which contains essential features along with stability and smoothness.
I will update this regularly as I have time and will add new features and fixes as well.
If you have any feature requests, don't hesitate to post it here!! I will consider if I like it
PLEASE READ
How to report a bug?
Include the following in your bug report:
The ROM you are currently using + a link to the ROM's thread
A log, preferably dmesgs or kmsgs (use Google to find out how to pull these from your device)
The version of SpiritKernel you use (=rx, e.g.r3)
Bug reports not meeting these requirements will be ignored.
NO BUG REPORTS ON EXPERIMENTAL BUILDS!

What do you mean ?
Does a bloated kernel 'blows up' device ?

adding unnecessary features and modifying codes without knowing anything does.
for eg. adding 4-5 hotplugs (enabled by default) and all working at once does.

This kernel is good but yureka plus is too damn slow on darkness governer.. Have to keep it on performance.. Any settings for a balanced usage without lags and good battery backup??
Thanks for the kernel.. ??
Does it supports MIUI 7?
Pls add 2.0ghz oc

So not compatible with Stock CM12.1 rom
Correct
Hey everybody, we all know about the lack of kernel on our device and i know that we have a caf kernel for lollipop but now we have a pretty stable cm13 with very good arguments and i see many improvements we can do very easily :
- compiling it with some flags and ubertc
- enable f2fs (included in cm kernel, just to enable it in defconfig and mount in fstab)
- enable zram (same, included in kernel but not enabled/mounted)
- add some governors/schedulers and OC/UV (a bit harder but still easy to implement by cherry picking)
Someone to try to make it?
Don't forget enabling Kernel same page merging too

Hey man, every time I use this kernel in a game or emulator (or something like that), the screen constantly freezes for a few seconds and goes back to normal. Is this a known bug?
