Upstream Updates: Frequently updated to recent Linux stable versions (e.g., v4.14.298).

  • Download DevCheck or CPU Float. Look at the "Kernel" field. It should say Quicksilver or Unified.
  • MIUI Camera: On some MIUI 12.5 builds, the stock camera app may crash if you install a kernel build meant for AOSP. Always read the zip file name.
  • Kernel Panics: If you underclock the CPU too aggressively (below 300mhz for the little cluster), the phone may hard reboot.
  • SafetyNet: Kernel modifies boot image, so you will likely fail SafetyNet. You must use Magisk + Universal SafetyNet Fix module to use banking apps.
  • Developer Warning: The developer does not support using Quicksilver on Android 14 (HyperOS) ports for Ginkgo yet. Stick to Android 13.

Focuses on reducing idle drain and improving active screen-on time. Broad Compatibility: Supports a variety of ROMs, including Installation Overview
