Root [Loki][Uncapped] rbheromax Kernel (JB recovery fix)

Good Day,

I would just like to make sure I've got the steps right. I had JB but with the LH2 bootloader, so I downgraded to ICS, I then rooted the phone, and hid the root from the update. I proceeded to update to the JB MA1 update, and restored root rights. Next, I flashed the twrp-official-2.6.lok to mmcblk0p18.(Thank you by the way, it works great.) I rebooted into recovery, and flashed the v081.zip. Please let me know if I'm correctly performing this procedure. I'm having a few problems, getting it to take. The phone boots to a lit black screen, vibrates, goes dark, and repeats. Please, some assistance if you would.

Thank you Good Sir for the help provided earlier. I have flashed the kernel, and did a little benchmarking with some very promising results. Posted are some screenshots from AnTuTu Benchmark, Passmark, and Vellamo Mobile Benchmarking. I set the I/O scheduler to Deadline, and the Scaling at Performance. Here are the results.

Thank you!!!! I've been needing benchmarks (I don't own the device). Do you mind if I use some of the images in the OP?
 
I'm in the middle of the compile. I didn't expect someone to answer this early. I'll be done with it in about 10-15 minutes I think.:cool:
 
it wont go to 1.6.

I figured out the problem... The source caps max CPU speed @ 1.5 and I forgot to disable it (it'll show u the freqs but won't let u set them), I will fix this some other time (may release as a .ko kernel module but doing that isn't worth the time if no one will stand the amount of command line commands it takes to use it) but I refuse to let the LG Motion and Galaxy Victory have higher benchmarks than us.
 
That's what I've been doing. Their highest is 2.1 GHz. Apparently when we go that high the CPU locks up. I'm looking to get it higher, but first I gotta slim down the frequency tables in the kernel source. I also have a kernel module that can be installed without flashing a kernel and safely reach 1.8 GHz but to actually use it requires command line and some people just don't want to do all that work.
