Root [MetroPCS] [ROM][4.4.4]CARBON ROM Kitkat 4.4.4 for LG Optimus F6 [LOTS OF FIXES]

Ma
I haven't played around with the newest update enough to notice any lag or other issues but I will say that Bluetooth works for me now and that's a huge step in the right direction. The one thing I did notice was that transferring files with Bluetooth took a little longer than what is to be expected. It took 8min to receive an 8mb apk which seems a little on the slow side.

Overall great work it's great to see progress being made.

I play with all my kernels so iam not sure why you were experiencing slowdowns.. .. But I use the faux kernel app. Also.. Might have forgotten to mention that you should either delete, or rename these 2 files In system/bin. Mpdecision, and thermald .. The functions of both of those are now handled within the kernel itself with intelliplug and intellithermal..
Could. Very well explain the issue

tested on my lg f6, wifi does not work for me. so i went back to the first carbon rom version because i use that phone only on wifi.

Same for me on both the 4/3 and "bluetooth fix" kernels. Wifi just says "Turning Wi-fi on" forever when trying to enable.

This was on a full-wipe, clean install. If it matters I have the incompatible camera. Maybe something is different with the WiFi module too?

If u have twrp try to fix permissions before wiping cache n dalvik
Edit:- with any app that can fix permission do it n reboot

Not gonna work... Have to use it with the new carbon ROM.. Because I update d the bcmdhd drivers.. Had to update the modules paths with it for libhardare_legacy.so. so.. Until I rebuild all the ROMs. This kernel will only with carbon 2 or the kk ports

The SD hack actually doesn't seem to work with the new kernel.

I've been tinkering alot the last day or so with cpuquiet, trying to further overclock and wrote a small .c prog that when 2 cores are online in turbo mode, it boosts the freq an additionional 200-400mhz.. Just depends on what is defined
So if its ondemand or conservative will top off and when its supercharger or performance will cross over top and give us sum mor mhz.?
Now will the intelli_thermal bump or stop cores to succeeds when throttling cores frequency.?
Any ways.. Send me one on PM i wll test for you if u want

Actually its gov independent ... So it would boost on all govs if the current freq of 2 cores are whatever the boost freq is set to to kick in.. Eg.. 1.4ghz
