Download KangarooX Kernel builds (Overclocked and Non-Overclocked) for Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Global/Pro codename Whyred. This is a custom Android kernel to take full control over your very own phone. KangarooX kernel is compatible with almost any Android ROMs (either Oreo or Pie).
While few years ago using a custom Android ROM is the ultimate tweak applicable for our Android phones, flashing a custom Android kernel also becomes popular recently.
The main reason is the hassle-free solution a custom kernel can offer. Flashing it allows you to take full control over your phones. You can manage how your device will behave.
Any specific behavior of your phone will affect the overall system performance and stability.
We like it for one thing, it brings the best settings for our phone and hence we can have the best performance while maintaining battery consumption low.
An Android kernel is built from Linux kernel. In short, it is a bunch of code that translate human instruction to the language that a machine can understand. It’s almost similar to Windows Drivers.
Xiaomi MIUI ROM comes with default kernel. Most of custom Android ROM also comes with one.
However, you may want to use a custom kernel to increase the performance of your phone. This is useful to avoid manual tweaking. Not all Android users understand all system hardware-related configuration.
A custom kernel brings ready-to-use hardware configurations to your device.
In this page, you can download KangarooX kernel for Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro/Global/China codename Whyred. KangarooX comes in two builds: the Overclocked (OC) and the Non Overclocked (Non-OC).
The first one is obvious. The OC edition comes with pre-configured settings that overclock the default chipset performance, including CPU and GPU frequencies.
The Adreno Boots technology that comes within KangarooX will enhance the performance of Graphic Processing Unit. It means you can enjoy a lag-free gaming experience.
KangarooX Kernel boosts your Redmi Note 5 Whyred mostly in three areas. First, CPU performance and hence it boosts overall system processes. Second, graphical performance through GPU boosting. This improves graphic-demanding processes such as gaming or graphic rendering. Third, it improves sound quality produced by your device. It also sports DTS:X Ultra SW effects.
