Kernel that allows SELinux=permissive for N915T KN3 topic






Hi. I thought I'd give out this kernel which allows one to set
SELinux=permissive for a rooted T-Mobile Note Edge with base NK3.
This setting is needed if you would like to run Linux on Android and,
I believe Viper4Android if you are so inclined, as well as some other
specialized apps (for future reference, let me know what apps you use
that needs this setting). Once you have loaded this kernel you can use the
app SELinuxModeChanger, found in the play store,
to set SELinux=Permissive and back to Enforcing. Note, this setting
is maintained until you change it back in the app (rebooting will
not change the setting). Anyways, what I am providing is a gzipped tar
file that you can download, gunzip and then load on your phone using
ODIN (version 3.07 worked fine for me, goes in PDA).
Remember, this kernel is ONLY for the T-Mobile N915T NK3 rom. Actually, I have
only tested it on the Lab Rats rom so hopefully it will work on other
roms for T-Moble N915T with NK3 base.

As most folks like to have a name for their kernel I've decided to call this the
"Low Lying Fruit Kernel" (LLFK) because it only has a minor change made
to it. Indeed this kernel is about as low as it gos (lol) as not a single
line of code is changed. I only changed an option in the Makefile
from true to false. Details are given at the following github site.

Anyways, I've been using this kernel for over 10 days with no problems,
but, of course , for those that try LLFK, the usual warnings apply! I am not
responisble for anything that happens to your device as a conseqence of
using this kernel. Indeed you have to be crazy to try it as I have
zero experience at this!
You also might want to read this before you try this:

One more thing, while my preference is that an experienced dev make a kernel worthy
of the N915T EDGE, I am open to suggestions to make some more modifications
assuming the request are somewhat consistent with the philosophy of LLFK.

Don't forget to do a full back up! Good luck!
