Stumbling upon a really great ROM/Kernel/Modem combination

Cognition v3.04 + Speedmod latest version + JL3 modem
Simply put: amazing. Several things are worthy of note. First, scrolling and general responsiveness of the speedmod kernel with 500hz is buttery smooth. It also has several tweaks you can enable to maximize battery life. But, the greatest difference came with the JL3 modem. Everything was instantly snappier. GPS locked in 4 seconds flat (I kid you not), and soon had 12 locked satellites. I had never before seen a lock with 5m accuracy, and it held it like a champ. Second, DL/UL speeds went through the roof. Normally I'd see 1.5Mb D and .3 Mb up. Now I see 3.5 Mbit down and 1.4 Mbit down. Couldn't be happier. But it gets better. The battery voltage before showed 3950 millivolts. Now it's down to 3750 mV.
Better GPS, speed, internet and battery life? Awesome.

Have you tried to make a phone call? I had the same setup and thought I was on cloud 9...
Until I called my wife... She said, "it sounded like gremlins were trying eat me". So after a process of Modem flashing I've come to find that FOR ME is Cogs 3.04/Speedmod/UGHJK4 seems to be working good all around, except for my battery life isn't the greatest. Gonna give it a couple days to see if it pans out

I use Darkys rom but find that for my area JK4 has been the best so far as well. With JL3 it switches to the 1900 band frequently and in my house that gets worse reception so my battery drains fairly quickly.
As for the OP I know how you feel. Ever since I flashed an earlier version of Darky's I haven't looked back. It's been the best rom I've tried out of all of them. Despite being a complete flashing addict I've hung up the cable for the time being as I'm more than satisfied with my current set up.

Totally off topic, but that has to be THE BEST quote I have seen on this forum!
Back on topic, best combo and my current configuration is Perception 8 with Setiron's kernel. Just flashing the rom and the kernel gives me all working features that I need, plus speed and stability. And after I go through and take out all the apps that I don't use and incorporate all my necessary apps, I get around 54 hours of battery life before I need to throw it on the charger. That's with my normal everyday use consisting of mass amounts of texting, a few phone calls, browsing the web, and having 3 widgets running. All my syncing is set for 1 hour intervals, except for weather which is set for every half hour.
Not saying it will work the same for you, but it hasn't let me down at all, and it's been my daily driver for about 2 months.

I thought I was ****tin in high cotton too til I tried to make a call with JL3 it just don't cut it for me either, handset volume was way too low and people said I sounded like I was in a well with a tornado.. JK4 is better all around for me too.

Another Vote here for Darky's 9.02 with SpeedMod "Q" Kernel. I presently have the JT3 Modem and haven't had any complaints except I was at a friend's house yesterday and had a problem holding a Signal there,I might try a different Modem.

Firefly 2.0.5 w/ eSPyel oc/uv kernel based on Hardcore's q kernel with jk4 modem.... i have it oc'd at 1400... results may vary on diffrent phones... but this thing is blazing fast been hitting low 19's on linpack scores and battery is good....

Overcloking

Is anyone else having an issue with custom kernels? My Tbolt only seems to run on the stock kernel/voltage. When I flash an oc kernel sometimes it will load and then freeze the system.

All phones are NOT created equally. Your phone may just not be able to handle it while others could.

I realize every cpu used is not the same and can't handle being overclocked to the max, but come on, I can't overclock it at all without it freezing shortly after the Rom starting. Don't you think that's a little out of the ordinary?
Sent from my rooted Tbolt.

I seem to be able to run speeds up to 1.8 or so without issues. Something I'm noticing is even with higher speeds, being on the smart-ass setting still isn't baby butt smooth consistently. I know they are still fine tuning it. I can run at a much lower clock speed while set to on-demand and get great results. How it is on battery life? Still testing. I'm using Ziggy's latest from this evening, BFS.

Yeah that does sound kinda sketchy. Which kernels have you tried? Have you tried running one that wasn't undervolted? I've heard people having issues with the UV kernels.

I know what you mean. I had the 1.2 GHz uv kernel from adrenalyne and the phone ran like crap. What's the point of over clocking if real world results are worse. Smart-Ass would stutter while it was ramping up and gun bros ran like crap until I reverted back to the stock kernel.
I'm hoping somebody makes an OC kernel that isn't under volted.

I'm running Imoseyon's version 3 of the lean kernal, 1.4 ghz, undervolted. it seems much faster and more responsive, and has yet to cause me any problems. Right now I'm running on 20 hours off the charger with 45% battery life left (extended battery, so assuming stock would last around 9 hours).

The only kernel that works for me is adrenaline's 2.6.32.21 battery is life kernel. I've tried his other kernels, imoseyon's lean kernels, and a few others all with the same result of freezing up the Tbolt.
Sent from my rooted Tbolt.

Have you tried adrenalynes newest kernel? I'm using version 4 right now with no problems.

Yeah, another vote for Adrenalyne's kernels here.
I'm running the version 4c, and it's flawless on my phone. (4b locked up at higher speeds.) But the other tweaks he threw in there kick ass. Louder audio, faster charging and, I think, most significant, a potential fix for the GPS issues a lot of people are experiencing. Granted, mine was not too bad -- I could usually get a lock within a minute or two, but now it's locking in under ten seconds.
Can't quite comment on the battery life yet, but it's probably pretty damn good, especially with a minimal overclock or even staying at 1Ghz.

Running one of Ziggy's...so far so good...

I ran Drod's 1.5 kernel with no problems overclocking. When I switched over to Ziggy's or Adrynalyne's overclock kernels, I am unable to overclock with out my phone freezing and going into constant boot loops. Kinda weird but I have no real need to OC so I just went with Adrynalyne's stock kernel and been fine ever since.

G2x Recommendations?

Got my G2x April 30 for my B'day, but I found out what ROM's and Rooting was last week haha. So I rooted my phone right away and got the Ultimate G2x ROM cause it looked nice. What I wanna know is what do you guys recommend like the cases, ROM's, batteries, etc. Also, what's a Kernel, and how do I change it?
I also read around here about ROM's or Kernels that can make the battery last longer. Where can I find those? And to anyone who has Ringke case, I read that it's kinda loose. Is that true cause I like how the case looks overall.

Same, nothing better than 1.05 EG Froyo, stable and fast. Add Faux Froyo Kernel and this phone is blazing fast.
Right now I returned to Stock Froyo with Faux Kernel and removed all bloat to see how she runs, two days so far so good. But EB is the best ROM out there so far.
I started on Ultimate and it is on par with EG Froyo, but the developer stopped updating so EB became ROM of choice.

I have a Lime Green Ringke case that I don't use anymore. Fits good and in perfect shape. Out of all the cases I've tried (for various phones) the ringke case was pretty sweet. Has a good feel to it. I only don't use it because cases kinda drive me crazy. I always buy cases and end up not using them. Send me a PM if interested.
I like CM7 roms because of all the extra features it has (downloadable themes, data toggles, etc). I don't mess with Kernels for some reason. Basically kernels adjust the processor clocks and power consumption by overclocking and undervolting. So usually you get more power while using less battery. They also cut back several other things like signal behavior.
Once you root, you can try SetCPU, which allows you to set Power profiles such as "When the screen is off" and lower the CPU frequency so it isn't running so fast while not being used.
If set up properly you can really save a boatload of battery and extend the life between charges.

I have the speck candyshell case. Fits nice and tight but the charging port needs modification or your charger will put strain on the port.

So hows the battery on it? Right now my battery lasts around 20hrs (with light use) and about 4:30-5 hrs of playing Modern Combat. (Wifi enabled and automatic brightness)

Eaglesblood. U can't go wrong. Fastest Rom I ever seen.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App

A kernel is the lowest point of your phone's software. It's what controls how the hardware talks to the software; how the keys respond, how the battery is used, how the CPU behaves, etc. Using a poorly made one is extremely dangerous, but luckily we have several that are NOT poorly made. Faux's and morfic's are generally considered the best.
Changing kernels is as simple as flashing a .zip, just like a ROM. You should wipe Dalvik and maybe cache before flashing.

Thanks guys, I'm deciding to go with EagleBlood and Faux kernel... for now.

[Q] just got the Nexus S 4G. should i stick with stock?

Hey everyone, i just upgraded to a Nexus S 4G this morning from the ol samsung transform, and i was planning on applying cyanogen but then i messed with the phone a bit, did root and restored a couple of my game apps...it seems to work with very nice speed, only serious issues ive noticed are just with the signal, sensitivity of keyboard, and i havnt had time to see battery life yet..
But i was wondering, since the stock rom is so clean and fast, why are we putting on different roms like cyanogen?
More importantly, as far as kernel, whats the best kernel right now for nexus 4g? im running stock kernel, but naturally and ideally id like even more speed(not sure what id use it for, but always nice), better battery life, and better data signals..
ive been reading about overclocked kernels a little bit and such, so basically im wondering about what you guys would say to all this? should i change rom &/Or kernel? to what? why? does overclocking at 1.4ghz like these kernels say have any negative side effects? things like that.
Thanks for your response!

There are quite a lot of things that can be changed by flashing a custom ROM. Cyanogen is reported to be more responsive than stock android, and a slight improvement on battery life and performance. Also, with other ROMs like MIUI you can completely change the entire GUI basically. The lockscreen becomes changeable by one click in the themes app. I've also noticed a slight improvement in battery life/performance and responsiveness.
Also, with regards to kernels, they add extra features (like voodoo sound, BLN notifications, UV'ing, OC'ing, etc). Now if you're looking to overclock your CPU AND save on battery life then that is probably not going to happen. If you OC the CPU you'll as a result draw more battery power when it reaches it's peak. Hence why I went with the TEUV88 kernel. This kernel undervolts the CPU yet manages to give me the same performance as the stock kernel. It runs extremely nicely and the battery lasts me about 24-30 hours on moderate usage where as before I was getting around 16.
Hope this helps.
Edit:: note that both undervolting and overclocking can be dangerous for any phone. The kernel developers put their kernels through testing though to ensure they are stable enough for most people (I hope anyways). But be aware that it is possible to damage the hardware be either of these methods.

yeah im looking at more undervolting for battery life cause current performance seems great for me as of this point. but i mean cyanogenmod doesnt change much since its built on gingerbread, its just slightly more customized, but on the actual performance side, it is a slight increase? so whats the best kernel for undervolting and still getting stock performance or more? im guessing its the one u just mentioned? cause i saw a voodoo kernel or something on main dev page and itwas undervolted and OCed to 1.4 i think...idk.

Yeah you might be talking about the matr1x kernel. It ocs to 1.44 and is uved also. Plus has voodoo sound, bln and bld. Some people have issues with cm7 and some don't. I really don't like the look of miui so I can't say for it. But I use decks 1.3d with zero issues and matr1x kernel with zero issues along with heavy use 4+ hrs screen time in over 12hrs. Personally running 1.44 your phone will prolly lock up but I run 1.2 non stop no freezes or lockups or reboots. Try them and see qhich ones fit you and what you like.

I'm still on stock with mine and honestly, I don't need anything else... i get 12-15 hours of moderate use and i don't really know what lag is because i never experience it with my phone.

The above posters are correct in everyway. I mean it definitely comes down to preference. I was averaging about 13-15h on my stock kernel/rom but my phone would be basically completely dead.
I switched to TEUV88-rammstein2 (Trinity Undervolted rom). It has Voodoo sound, BLN (backlight notification), and with todays update it has touchwake mod. So as you can see my phone lasted 15h (still with 35% battery left) with 3h of screen on, and 45m of audio streaming, and lots of texting.

Hanging in there - Great Hardware, painfully bad software

The most amazing thing about the Samsung i510 is that even with the Rezound, Bionic, Nexus, and Razr out or on the horizon it’s hardware is still pretty damn good. Dollar for dollar, it is arguably the best screen out there and the CPU is quite adequate. The RAM is a little low, but again it’s adequate. I even really like the physical buttons and the Battery is ample (from a physical perspective).
The software! It’s all the software. I don’t think I will get a Nexus when it first comes out because I’m sure 15 days after I have a Nexus in hand Samsung will finally deliver 2.3.6 OTA with source. There’s no reason that this phone can’t become a great performer, sip slowly at battery all day long, and get CM9 in 2012 - but the patience VZW and Samsung asks of us is excruciating!

I agree I usually trade phones as soon as possible and my wife said no or what are you going to get next. I said actually Im happy with this phone atleast for awhile. Not like I was before and trading or buying as soon as I can. In between now and next year I see a possible dramatic advance at even what is coming out this year.

I totally agree. But I am not looking to upgrade to GB. It sucked on my D2 and I will not download it on the Charge. I just keep upgrading the Modem software on the Charge. That makes a big difference for me with each new software update.

GB is better than Froyo in every way on this phone. I had constant lockups and random reboots under Froyo, but everything is smooth as silk under GB. You can't compare two completely different pieces of hardware and two different software builds to each other in terms of performance. I tried at one point to go back to EE4 and I was back EP1 within two days, because by that point, EE4 was just painful to use.

Currently on EP1W and I think its great. I find that EP4P radios to seriously rock. I will upgrade to EP4P base soon depending on when we get the OTA update.
My phone is super-stable overclocked to 1.252 GHz. Seldom radio issues, good voice quality. I freeze all kinds of stuff with Titanium Backup. I generally have no issue with RAM, but don't play games... All my apps (150 user installed apps) are stored on internal memory for speed. I may upgrade the rather slow class 2 micro-SD card to a class 10 card though.
If you take some care of your setup, you will be rewarded with a great phone.
Current Setup:
Humble 4.22 EP1W
Imoseyon Kernel 3.1
Modem: EP4P
V6 Supercharger
3G Turbocharger
I/O Scheduler Changer (running noop)
Tegrak Overclock
Changed Vocoder to EVRC-B
Voodoo Control Plus
Voodoo Screen Tuner
Oh, by the way, am I the only one not not highly stoked about the Galaxy Nexus? My primary complaints are no Wolfson DAC, pentile display, curved glass, and no micro-SD slot. Also, it has the same GPU as the Charge, albeit clocked higher. I personally will wait for the Galaxy S 3 for HD SAMOLED+, but who knows what the audio hub will be (hoping its the Wolfson.)

I used to think gb sucked after loading the earlier builds. Really buggy and laggy.
So I stuck with ee4 for the longest time.
After trying out the latest ep4 build, I completely changed my mind. Superior to froyo in every way.

I was right there where you're at...then I went from stock to Humble 5.0...phone is now pretty frickin nice in my opinion

Latest GB release is smooth
I agree with all the posters here. I finally flashed 2.3.6 and what a difference it made. Lag is non-existent for me, battery life is much better, data drops have practically disappeared and phone is snappy. GPS still is slow and not very accurate. Download GPS Fix from the market and run it before you use GPS....problem mostly solved.
Overall, made this phone run the way it should have from day 1.
Those of you waiting for the release, don't. Follow the instructions and flash the new release. It is very easy and you will be glad you did !

Humble 4.22 and 5.0 are both based on GB. You can't tell me you don't experience the buzzing noise issue, can you? THAT to me is a show stopper. I don't care how fast the datarate is but this phone still needs to make calls reliably.
Tried every GB leak variants out there and none of them has that issue solved.
Have gone back to debloated EE4 with Imoseyon's latest kernel and the latest EP4P modem installed. Been very happy with it; man, it's fast, no lag, super stable, no issue with swypes 3.0's cursor jumping around like crazy when you're posting your post on forums (surely you all have gone nuts over that problem).

I am not on Humble, but I'm running a coredroid themed version of the 2.3.6 TBH leak with imoseyon 4.0 so it's basically the same thing as Humble.
To be totally fair, I do mostly texting & don't make a ton of phone calls but I have never once had a problem on a call. I talked to my boss yesterday for 45 minutes on a call & it worked just fine.
On the occasional calls I do get or make, this phone (for me anyway) is loud & clear & much better then any previous phone I have owned (& I have had a TON of phones)

Tons of posters on this forums have the same issue.
But I hope you're right. And I intend to prove your theory, hopefully soon. As soon as the GB OTA is out, I'll be demanding a replacement if the problem persists. With a Nexus perhaps, if I'm lucky.

I think I have to agree on all counts. I was super excited about the Galaxy Nexus coming to VZ & had a standing order in with our VZ corporate rep telling her I will buy it as soon as you can get me one.
I am having serious second thoughts however. I am so incredibly happy with my latest Charge setup (2.3.6 TBH leak W/imoseyon 4.0, LPP Plus, Fuju tweaks, camera button mod, coredroid theme etc.etc.etc.) that I am beginning to realize that with the Galaxy other than the dual processor it would actually be a downgrade for me in a number of ways.

I have a good news for some http://www.droid-life.com/2011/11/2...rge-gingerbread-update-rolls-out-november-29/
Official GB release date has been announced.
