Really strange, we had another person on here with the core and he couldnt get it flash at all, maybe he wasnt doing something right.

Yeah I read through his posts... They were pretty discouraging. I thought it wasn't going to work at all.

I flashed it through TWRP, just wiping system and performing a factory reset. It took a while but it booted up fine, none of the upgrading/starting apps stuff.

that’s interesting, spec wise they are very similar
 
I can also say along with my battery lasting less time with this rom, it seems to run quite a bit hotter, not hot enough to really be a problem, but my hands do get quite hot when using it, even for somthing not intensive on the device

Yeah I would usually come home with a respectable 25%, but with this ROM, I had to use it a bit less and came back with 4%. :l

But hey, these increased speeds sure make it snappy! :D

must be because its using all cores, on stock I always put it on powersaver and restricted performance, with the ability to underclock/over in the future we could get around that

The cores turn off fine, but what I said about the cores being stuck at 1.2 GHz doesn't seem to be true...

It looks like the process of even manually watching the core speeds causes core #1 to speed up. It tends to stay around 1 GHz to 1.2 GHz, occasionally dropping down to somewhere around 600 MHz. :/

So now I have no idea as to why the battery life is worse. BTW I know it says deep sleep is unused, but I didn't turn off my screen in these shots. :p

Gotta start somewhere and a custom kernal could be a good breakthrough for other kernals for better battery life and such! :)

I thought we already had one lol, im not making any promises yet though gonna take a bit to figure out why those few things are throwing errors but hopefully something comes out of it

If u want to make a custom kernel use the g386w kernel source it more complete plus on the touchscreen issue make-3.81 is required because make-4.0 and up errors out on the touchscreen Makefile i jave been trying to fix it to compile with make-4.0 but i haven't been able to fix it yet

awesome will do, that must be whats wrong then lol, I just wanted to play around with this maybe help out once I get a hang of it
 
I wanted to know something. Why is the board in build.prop the msm8226? I'm sure that the board in our phone is the msm8926.

Does it make any difference?

Whatever you need help with, I'm sure there is at least one person here with an answer and we're always up for flashing test builds :D lol so welcome aboard, we're always glad to see new faces!

if i used the cores source code for the kernal would the kernal work on the avant as well or do i have to use the avant source code on the avant
