Would like to give some feedback on Vulpix mod, this mod really works and the whole system is a lot more smoother than previously. No lag and all animation is extremely smooth.

Still not sure about the battery life thingy, will keep on monitor. But those who tripped their knox, I recommend to give it a try

Hard to describe, but on X-Note, my screen off animation, apps drawer opening and folder opening animation is way faster than usual.

Developer said in apps drawer, you can open Check Rand Entropy Avail and check, if the value is above 4k, means the mod is working.

I'm also using Adaway, is better than Adblock in my opinion. Bro, do you mind to tell me what did you deleted to make the download speed of data is more constant? Where did you delete it?

I don't have such issue, but one weird thing I notice, I no longer have any multitasking. All apps that being put into background is being shut down and upon launching them back, its like reopening them.

Anyone else have this issue? I gotta restore back my nandroid backup

Tried that but still all my background processes is killed. Even my launcher need to be reloaded everytime.

My recent app list is not emptied thou, but constantly got 1.5GB free RAM but what's the use of the RAM without any multitasking ability

1. That is some apps from the stock kitkat os, like calculator and some other stuff
2. No one know which is the best for you, test yourself. But I'm using Viper4 and is working
3. In olden days the phone will beep when your device is connected to charger, but it is gone in our device. This mod supposed to restore it but I didn't get it to work.

You nandroid before flashing the zip or after?

antt00, wanna ask, how do you make the corners of all your window rounded?

Thanks

Hmm, I nandroid restore to remove the script and everything is reverted back to the state prior to flashing the vulpix mod. How come yours will give you problem? I'm using TWRP thou

Hmm, I didn't use CWM, but I'm using TWRP and I nandroid restore my device. So mine is running fine without the script and no problem encountered here. Maybe you can try TWRP though as it can backup efs partition as well.

The reason I choose custom kernel is all for longer battery life. Stock kernel is fine but custom kernel could have better performance / battery life. I have tried all custom kernels except for wonder child, to me all smoothness of custom kernel are more or less the same. But lean kernel and yank's kernel give me better battery life. Abyss kernel has high Android OS consumption and cause issue in camera. Wooper's kernel is smooth but there is lots of wakelocks

But lean is simple and don't have much wakelock. But compared to yank, it seems that yank battery life is slightly better than lean, as it really goes into deep sleep when I lock my phone. I haven't test lean 1.8 though.

I'm using fiosp for I/O and ondemand governor. Yank kernel got no uv option.

No reason Just wanna try it out

This UAG seems like don't like me, until now I still doesn't receive my first and my replacement set.

Impossible. Using paypal and all items reached me except this

Lol, maybe faith don't let me to use UAG. They asked me to wait till 31 and will give me a good solution wor if I still don't receive it

Ya, remebered you told me. Brando reached me in less than a week thou

Maybe I just stick with otterbox la

Apply some mobiko then knox will be gone

It's very simple now. You still can flash ROM with knox intact using MOP. antt00 is your master sifu if you need help. Just that you can't flash custom kernel only.

Civz engine 2.5 is out already, maybe you can give it a shot

After trying all custom kernels, except wonderchild, the best for me in battery life is yank kernel and lean kernel. Yank kernel gives me very low wakelock.
