FAQ — KERNEL MANAGER QUESTIONS

Is root required?

Yes. Kernel parameters live in sysfs (/sys/devices/system/cpu, /sys/block, /sys/class/power_supply) and need Magisk / KernelSU / APatch superuser access.

Do I need a specific kernel?

No. DFG kernel nodes are a fast-path; standard sysfs nodes are used automatically on any kernel. Unsupported nodes show N/A instead of failing.

Which devices work?

Any rooted Android 8.0+ device. Born on Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite (daisy) with the DaisyForGaming kernel, now universal.

Is it safe?

Writes are validated against kernel-advertised options, verified by read-back, and risky toggles need confirmation. Reboot reverts everything unless boot persistence re-applies it.

Does it collect data?

No telemetry. Settings stay on-device; update checks use a static GitHub JSON with SHA-256 verification.
