[KERNEL][MIUI V5/QDTXX] Stock kernel with init.d support / fstrim

[Kamal Hamsa]

I've uploaded the kernel for MIUI 3.5.10 with the following changes:​

- cleaned up sysctl execution (no seperate file in /system anymore)​

- kernel.conf is no longer executed by the kernel, it's moved to the init.d folder​

- some improvements to kernel.conf​

​

I've uploaded an addon for WIUI to enable kernel.conf on WIUI ROMS. see post #2​

Thanks dude! Sincerely appreciate your work!

I am currently trying to port the universal config interface to the Xiaomi Mi2.
It will replace the kernel.conf feature.

It's comparable with kernel.conf only easier to maintain and to expand.
It's configureable using an app.

It will take some time and maybe I won't succeed but building the application works so there is a change it will work.
I will do my best.

BIG NEWS!!

I've succesfully ported the universal config interface to the Xiaomi Mi2.
Also the app to configure the kernel is 100% working

Now it's a matter of adding a bunch of features.
Below you will find the features I am planning
- set default CPU governor
- set max scaling frequency
- set min scaling frequrncy
- set default I/O scheduler
- configure read_ahead_kb and nr_requests
- enable/disable slice_idle for CFQ scheduler
- configure fifo_batch for deadline scheduler
- enable/disable sysctl, mount no-atime, zipalign
- probably some more

All the above will replace kernel.conf.
These new features will be available at 3.5.17 kernel

It won't be included inside the rom but as a seperate download.
Not everyone needs these features.

There are features of XTweaks that are the same to trickster mod.
But there are also features which are not in trickster mod.
Besides that the features of XTweaks are focused on Xiaomi Mi2 only.

Could this kernel be used with stock rom like QDT10?

I don't think so but will look into that

@redmaner

do you know this tweak?

 

[redmaner]

do you know this tweak?

No, but it looks like a modified version of thunderbolt
Most of this scripts are integrated in the new kernel

Yes 3.5.17 kernel with init.d and XTweaks (uci).
This kernel will be available tomorrow

I'm curious, not knowing too much about android development but would this Kernel open up the possibility to be able to Overclock a device?

No, kernel sources are required for that

Release is delayed, sorry for that.
I have no ETA in mind yet, I hope in a few days.

I need some more time to finetune it and add some more features.
Problem is that I have a personal project (for my education) that has the highest priority right now and takes a lot of time.

I will explain the current status.
Everything works, the problem is that the application is pretty old and static.
The application's target is Gingerbread and higher.

I am not an android app developer so my knowledge is very minimal.
I try to clean up the UI but most of it is using old Gingerbread elements and hard coded elements.

I am now at the stage it's acceptable.
Using the MIUI V5 theme doesn't look that well in my opinion so it's holo light for now. But everything can change.

I will look into that. If it's possible then yes

Edit: I've looked into it. The QDT10 boot.img structure doesn't allow kernel repacking.
If I change the structure it won't boot. Edited initramfs is gettng to big.

 

[redmaner]

New kernel is now released! 3.5.17 with XTweaks.
Thanks for the patience everyone.

 

[derbestimmer]

great man! thank you for your efforts!
