[*]First of all, by any means, this is my personal build.
[*]Everything included in this kernel isn't 100% my work. There are many features that I picked from others' work. Credits for these used works are available on the near-end of the OP.
[*]I'm not responsible for any damage occurred with this kernel, either software/hardware damage, yourself, your cat, your home, [STRIKE]your waifu[/STRIKE], etc. You're at your own discretion.
[*]I'm not accepting any feature requests, but any suggestions and feedbacks are welcome.
[*]Please read the last part of OP if you want to share my works elsewhere.

[B]/* Supported Environment */[/B]
[LIST]
[*]This kernel supports both Redmi 3 (2GB variant) and Redmi 3 Pro (3GB variant; FPC1020 fingerprint driver only).
[*]This kernel DOESN'T and WON'T support Redmi 3S/3X (land). Go and search for similar kernel on [URL="https://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-redmi-3s/development"]the dedicated subforum[/URL].
[*]If you're unsure about your phone model, feel free to run this command below via Terminal or ADB shell:
[CODE]$ getprop ro.product.device[/CODE]
[*]This kernel is ONLY tested against LineageOS 14.1 and ResurrectionRemix-N, but it should work on all ROMs that based on AOSP-CAF sources.

[B]/* Downloads */[/B]
Downloads are hosted on [URL="https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=159164"]AndroidFileHost folder[/URL].
[COLOR=Red]Please don't mirror any files. I'm already choosing the best for you. It has multiple mirrors, too.[/COLOR]

[B]/* Installation Instructions */
[COLOR=Red]IMPORTANT![/COLOR][/B]
This kernel zip isn't compatible with Chinese-branded TWRP recovery due to how my modified AnyKernel2 template works. You're endorsed to use [URL="https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71476518&postcount=191"]this compatible TWRP recovery[/URL] instead (with bug-free F2FS support).
[HIDE][LIST]
[*][B]REQUIRED:[/B] Restore your stock boot.img if you're on another custom kernel to prevent any issues. You can dirty flash the current ROM via TWRP, or extract the boot.img from ROM zip and flash manually via TWRP's "Flash image" option.
[COLOR=Blue]If you're using previous version of KudKernel, unless explicitly mentioned, it's not required to restore stock boot.img.[/COLOR]
[*]Download KudKernel zip.
[*]Reboot to recovery.
[*]Flash KudKernel zip.
[*]Optional: Enable zip signature verification to verify the package before flashing.
[*]Profit. Enjoy the release.
