Before proceding, please consider learning from Garfield :

(Thanx to MuertoKo for this educational image)

I have spend numerous hours coding, merging ... and writing this OP, so please have the decency to at least read it before asking questions.


Disclaimer

FIRST OF ALL, do a Nandroid backup before flashing !


By flashing this kernel you agree to do this at your very own risk ! I will and can not be
held responsible for whatever may happen as a consequence of using this kernel / script generator.
This software is made available to you as is, no waranties can be given.

If you do not agree to these terms, then please use your browser's back key.

You have been warned !


ROM Compatibility

This kernel is based on stock Google shamu kernel sources, so it is intended only to be used on Stock or stock based ROMs.

The kernel has been tested on :
  • SlimLP 5.0, 5.0.1, 5.0.2
  • AOSP 5.0, 5.0.1
  • Pure Shamu
  • ... (you tell me ;))

What To Expect Using This Kernel

First of all, the main reason this kernel even exists is because I make it for my own personal use, I don't mind adding one or the other feature upon request by a user even if I don't use that feature personnally.

Main objectives for this kernel :

  1. be as stable as possible to be usable as a perfect daily kernel (conservative approach)

  2. give a good battery life while being snappy

  3. give users an easy and safe way to customize settings

  4. be and stay as close to stock as possible

  5. allow only for moderate CPU OC (maybe)

  6. include some standard Linux features missing in stock kernel (e.g. kernel module support...)

  7. code interesting features myself

  8. include interesting commits by other devs (giving proper credit, of course !)

What NOT To Expect Using This Kernel

  • experimental modifications

  • cutting edge development

  • thrive to be the first, fastest, best, most advanced ... kernel ever !

    I just suspect there is a public for genuine slightly modified kernels that are a no fuzz to use, and which are aimed towards "standard power users" as opposed to "hungry beta testers and debuggers" (been there, done that, fun time in my HD2 times helping as I could on Dorimanx kernel). But I need my device on a daily bases, privately and for work, so my device just has to work.

Credits & Thanx

This is the most important bit of them all, a small place to pay tribute to all those who have helped me making this kernel :

  • Faux123

    Thanx for helping me get started, out of an almost 20 years break on Linux kernel compiling (at the time it was Linux 0.47 if I remember well), helping me build my compile box(es), upfront getting my first Android kernel compiled, making mods, merging sources, using github in general ... and always taking the time to explain and help out !

  • Amarullz

    And last but nowhere least, huge thanx to Amarullz for giving us such a great tool, without Aroma Installer flashing kernels / ROMs would still be stone-age kind of voodoo magic, now it has become a proper user experince, giving everybody an easy way to customize whatever is being flashed !

Kernel Cleanup Script, to be flashed when going to a different kernel :

Kernel configuration & log files removal (will be added at a later time)

In case you are wondering whey there is a SlimLP in the kernel name, that does not imply it will not run on AOSP nor CM, but it just means, SlimLP is where I'm at, running Will's W03 SlimLP build as daily ROM on my Nexus 6.

This is also where I will most likely stay in the future, and should kernel paths split up between CM and Slim/AOSP, then I will follow SlimLP at the cost of not supporting CM anymore in that case.

But this is all hypothetical talking, so for now, it's any of those that you can run on my kernel ;)

First half battery cycle with 'normal real life use', some apps misbehaving and a pretty bad signal all around... Display mostly bright (auto-brightness using Lux).
