DON'T USE THE ROM, IT IS OUTDATED AND HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED!
DO NOT USE THE "PUV" (Pinky UnderVolt) VERSION, IT WILL CAUSE YOUR DEVICE TO GET STUCK AT THE SPLASHSCREEN! (POSSIBLY)
I DID NOT MAKE THIS KERNEL, I'M JUST POSTING IT HERE FOR YOU ALL.
THIS IS NOT FOR ANY OTHER ROMS BESIDES CM7 (AND CM7-BASED ROMS) AND MIUI, SO DON'T ASK!
I'm using the UUV CFS version. It is very fast and smooth, I urge you not to have an OC past 1.3GHz as a daily driver, unless you want horrible battery life.
Any option below PUV is safe (UUV, -50mV, and -25mV all work, but every device varies).

i didnt think my phone could ever sh*t itself until i flashed this kernal.

lol, iffy kernal. especially with two versions available, its kinda strange testing them and seeing whats best for your phone. flashed the cfs version, and as expected, things seemed evenly smother throughout the phone, yet even at 1.99, there was nothing special or over the top about performance. also, i had a very strange, completely indescribable hiccup after booting.
EDIT
tried the bfs version, and still nothing special. maybe its just me and my miui rom. the 1.99 is cool, but i think im just gunna stay away from this.

Been running his kernels for a couple of weeks, no issues. It is nice to be able to choose from different undervolt versions. Helps battery life a little, around 5%-10% in my experience.

NikolaiT, just FYI this kernel works with Ultimate Droid, which is based on CM7. In case you want to update the OP.

+1. Running 4.2 cfs -25 version on UD now. 4.0 was the best battery life ever on any cm7 based roms. Haven't tried the puv version yet, but rest assured I will try and report results..

Hardly "iffy", the differences are stated in the thread or here.
I've been using this kernel with CM7 Final for quite some time now and it's been quite solid.

Careful, the PUV version softbricked my device. Easily fixable through reflashing your ROM or just a new kernel.
It may not brick yours because some devices can handle it, some can't.

+1. Not "iffy" at all.

I've been using it for a while now. At the moment I'm using the latest CFS -25 UV version @ 1305 with the scaling set to Intelligent Donkey (lol) and I actually made it an entire day without charging. That's saying a lot for someone that gets about 12 hours max on a charge.

I'm currently pulling two days at 64% with the same kernel but my CPU settings are 122 min - 1075 max.

So what's everyone recommendations for the best version of this Kernel in terms of both optimum battery and performance?
Additionally... what kinds of CPU governors and max-min frequencies are you using? I've seen a few post what their using in this thread, but I'd like to get some more opinions.

I've been using this Kernel for a few weeks now with no issues. The UUV had some slight hesitation when scrolling so now I'm running 4.3 CFS with the -50 UV and it's absolutely perfect. Fantastic battery life running at 122/1305 MHz with the -50 UV.

i'm using 4.2 and I didn't flash any scripts... is the default -25UV? I'm gonna try 4.3 and -50 script later tonight.
quick question to the group: what is eating up your battery? mine, oddly enough is cell standby and phone idle. i'm using stock radio. in the past (on froyo builds), it's always been screen time.

Default is no undervoltage.
Cell Standby and Phone Idle are my two biggest "battery killers" but that's normal operation.

maybe all of you missed the whole miui thing. it says it works great with miui, but my phone seemed very buggy after switching from cattleprods kernel, but you tested it on very different roms than me. it addition, my quadrant score were crap on both types, cfs and bfs, which is completely contrary to the description of one over the other. so yes iffy.

Can anyone explain the difference between the scheduler flavors? I use cfs, but bfq or io?

Check these two posts: Post 1, Post 2. Looks like BFQ is the standard scheduler and VIO is quicker on paper (kind of like BFS vs CFS).

Thanks for the explanation. The bfqhs seems much smoother than the io. I am running it with the uuv.

Best Kernel?

What is in your opinion, the best kernel with performance and battery life?

WellI've had x99's kernels recommended to me several times whenever I've jumped back to froyo.

Currenting went from Tiamat to ScarySUV, Tiamat seems high in performance but ScarySUV saves a little bit more battery.

Stock CM7 kernel max CPU at 1.5GHZ, min CPU 200mhz, runs great.

Right now I'm loving Scary's kernels. His links in his post are dead though .

I'm still on sparksco's kernel, but I also did noticing a couple more hours out of battery life ocerclocked to 1.5
I found that strange but nice. Phone tends to overheat though so I keep it at 1.2
Imo, sparksco's kernel is the besy by far with performance and battery life.

yeah ill usually get about 20hrs. Moderate usage. That's with 3g off and wifi on.
Best I got was 34 hrs before.
ScarySUV doesn't really help my battery life. But I never wiped battery stats when trying that kernel. I might do that and see what I can get.
When I'm on sparkscos kernel with 3g on all day, the worst ill get is about 10 hrs with heavy usage.
Evo SHIFT

I get the same with sparks, scarysuv gives me decent about with amazingly heavy use but battery stats never done so I'm currently stay at 35% for about an hour and a half now.

im running the warm synergy rom on my shift, is there any good kernels thatll run with that? id really like to get my shift oc'd and still use this rom. im used to using samsung garbage which is completely different from the shift.

[Q] Terrible battery life on CM7. Have tried everything.

I am having terrible battery life. Before upgrading to CM7 I never noticed my battery life being bad. That said I have scoured the message boards trying every solution imaginable. I typically lose about 11% of battery every 90 minutes while the phone is in standby. This bad battery life started right when I installed CM7.
What I have tried:
-Installed System Panel and I don't have any rogue apps
-Factory data wipe, cache wipe, battery stats wipe (with and without), dalvik cache wipe -> then reinstall CM7.
-Battery has been bad on Alpha 1,2,6 & 7.
-Tried both suggestions on battery life in the CM7 Bible thread under Battery Issues section
-Upgraded to FAUX kernel Joe's RCU 0.2.0
-Changed CPU to max 1026 MHz.
I have waited 1-2 days before making each change and nothing has helped or hurt the battery.
I am very happy with CM7 with everything except the terrible battery life I am experiencing.

Use standard kernel without oc. It's really really good. Record us almost six days

I am using Faux kernel with super undervolt. Battery life is still horrible comparing to other roms. maybe I will try using the stock kernel.
jcalifornia, are you also experiencing bad battery life with stock cm7 kernel?

Have you tried a stock kernel, maybe GPU freq is running higher than stock.

Yes, the bad battery life once I started using CM7. I used it for over 1 week.

Yes, I tried the stock kernel for over 1 week and was experiencing bad battery life the entire time.

What was your battery voltage right before it went dead? I have a feeling that our phones (or just these HTC batteries) are cutting out long before they are truly dead. I notice mine drops out at 3.4v. The battery itself is usually protected from UV at 2.8v. I am waiting for my chichitec to die now so I can compare cutout voltage.
For the record, I was seeing 18-20 hours with CM7 and faux's kernels. 1.56Ghz

Since you have the issue on multiple ROMs/kernels, maybe your battery is bad/defective. Maybe T-mobile can send you a replacement under warranty? I'd call/chat with them to see. Worst they can say would be "no".
One other thing, you wouldn't happen to be using the performance governor?

I thought the battery may be bad too, but I was getting great battery life before I went to CM7. Last night I did a "superwipe" and that seems to have fixed the problem. I am down to 71% after 9 hours when before the wipe I would be at ~25%.

I guess you had something hanging around from a previous ROM somewhere. Good luck!

Yea Tiamat helps a bit but the bad battery life of CM7 is still inevitable I guess.
For Vipermod: (from viperboy's faq page)
Q. I can't find vipermod in /system/bin after flashing in recovery! Where is it?
A. Well, I need to know this! Please contact me via email or post about this in the correct device thread on XDA. Due to the differences in devices and the commands they use to mount /system you may encounter an issue. Here is a workaround:
Manually place vipermod in /system/bin
Use a terminal app and type:
su
chmod 0777 /system/bin/vipermod
vipermod
The script will then run. Please see my note in the previous question to make viperMOD easier to launch.
Click to expand...

or you can just use root explorer: extract the vipermod file from the zip, place it into /system/bin, change the file's permission manually, and you are good to go

I have tried every radio and my battery life is still bad. If I recall correctly I was also getting bad battery life until the late August OTA and then my battery was great. I think I am going to have to switch back to the stock ROM because the battery life I am getting with CM7 won't cut it.

Try using the app battery calibrator. Or go in your recovery menu and chose advance(I think) and chose clear battery stats. But do this when your battery is full

Good calibration guide, many have found that the calibration app isn't the only factor in calibrating. All it does is remove a file that Android recreates every boot.

Getting maximum performance out of G2X... on specific device

Ok for some mods my thread maybe annoying as these kind of things has been asked before but I want to share my device specifics with some of the experts here so that they can help me. Maybe others can post their device specifics on this thread too in order to get help
My G2X : 1.25 months old (my first android )
Carrier : WIND Mobile Canada
Tried Roms for maximum performance --- I am still on testing phase for this cell phone. once i get to the optimal setting then I will give it a rest and use it normally
2.2 Froyo Stock WIND --- Too Old
2.3.3 (V21e Stock - TMobile ) --- Too plain
2.3.4 (v21y stock - TMobile) --- took a headache to get upgraded on Windows 7 after that something odd happened. 1 Hour of temple run got me to 5% battery straight from approx 80%. Thought March 2012 baseband was the culprit moved to Weapon G2x with July 15 kernel (note: never moved back to June 5 the original WIND kernel till now)
2.3.3 (Weapon G2x Latest + Faux Kernel) --- Best Rom for stability and battery life ....BUT ..... stock browser kept on crashing without any reason and also some greed for CM7 tweaks ... moved to CM7.2 latest nightlies (dun remember which one)
2.3.7 (CM7.2 RC) ---- was OK with faux kernel i got 6 hours straight battery time on WiFi (using Skype, Playing Games, Voice calls, Texting, Browsing, Sync On constantly .... i.e 6 hours straight awake and screen on) --- got stability issues so I moved to CM7.2 stable
2.3.7 (CM7.2 stable) --- had to upgrade the baseband again to March 2012 with the Temple Run mishap in mind ..... so then searched XDA ... found Trinity ... searched more ... found the last 6 Feb 2012 kernel for GB ELP .... flashed it and got the battery timing up to 9 from 6 hours also Heavy gaming is Lagless (GTA 3 , Modern Combat)... Loved it (though i was having flash distorted streaming issues) ....anyway thought i found the combination ... used it for few days..... Till
I have WiFi at home n work so I am mostly on Wifi thats why on my initial tests I forgot about the difference in battery timings on WiFi and HSPA ... One time out of the house visiting someone. I tested my combination on HSPA ... damn got less than 5.... just maybe 4 hours of straight awake battery timing while only constant browsing and texting and Sync On. Is that what I am gonna get with G2X? What if I am on the move while texting or browsing or using GPS (I haven't even turned on the GPS) 4 hours of awake screen on battery timing while only browsing is too low. so I searched more and moved to EB last GB release
2.3.7 (EB Latest .. possibly based on CM7.2 RC) ... feels fast .. mainly due to app drawer opening too quickly ....also tried GTA ... somewhat lagless ... ran my test of constant browsing on HSPA and some texting and Sync On ... got me still somewhat 4-5 hours of battery moved to HFP 2.2
NOW - 2.3.7 (HFP 2.2 based on CM7.2 Stable) .... installed V6 Super charger ... got battery timing of 4.5 hours with the above test.....(ALSO THERE IS A PROBLEM.... I AM GETTING A BATTERY DRAIN APPROX 5-10% /HOUR WHILE SCREEN OFF AND SYNC ON ON DATA... AND THAT WASN'T A CASE WITH WIFI ON CM7.2 NIGHTLIY) removed V6 and now calibrating battery. I have another app CPUSleep in my arsenal to test but I am waiting till i get the right combination ... i'll use it as a bonus.... if calibration doesn't work my plans are to switch kernels and test and after that downgrading to the old baseband and test...
now all of the above was typed so that the experts would know how far I have gone so they won't ask me to repeat anything that is already done above ... NOW MY QUSTIONS ARE :
1. I heard on some post on XDA that lower voltage on heavy usage tends to drain battery faster. Since I am using Trinity ELP which has lower voltage values by default as compared to Faux's kernel. Is this really possible that lower voltage kernel drain battery faster?
2. I am extremely skeptical about the baseband thing. Mainly because I am sure it should have an effect on battery timing too and also because since I am a WIND user and stock baseband was June 5 2011 and now I am on T-Mobile March 2012. Could the different baseband for different carrier may have some effect on battery timing while using on different network? What about RIL? Upgrading to HFP 2.2 on latest baseband i had a RIL mismatch .why should I upgarde RIL? Does RIL mismatch/match has an effect on battery timing?

Well for one use getril and update the RIL to 21y I find I get a tiny bit better signal quality... And some cpus can't handle drastic undervolt and actually will consume more power and get hotter which uses more power also... This is a good guide for undervolting I'd go with faux or trinity t15 and use the guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1558080.... And lastly the new baseband really isn't a huge difference in battery life its more about signal strength and gps lock times...

Thanks for the reply. I thought I wont get one due to that very long post... anyway
Ok I will update the RIL .... but part of my question is still unanswered. U see June 5 2011 baseband was stock on Wind froyo 2.2 but on others like videotron March 2011 was inside stock froyo .... so the way a baseband works are they carrier specifics or not? Or just Band/Frequency specific?
I haven't undervolted Trinity ELP myself since I am afraid of it getting fried I just left it on default values and had surprisingly good results with constant WiFi 8 to 9 hours constant usage. Its just that on HSPA the battery is draining quickly not to mention HSPA+ . And yes my cell is getting more warm to hot as compared to when used with WiFi. Is it possible that Trinity ELP values are too low for HSPA. Making it hotter and draining battery faster. Should I increase the voltage on ELP? M right now in calibrating process. Will update u more on that.

ELP kernel is set really low already and is too low for some phone best way is to use t15 and find your sweet spot..As for the BB I'm not to knowledgeable about wind but know you can use the new bb on it with no issues

The baseband is just firmware for your radio. It doesn't affect game performance at all.

Ok thanks. I'll do that and get back to u once I have finished calibrating my battery. Can u tell me what is the best way of calibrating g2x battery. I have tried zapplinrox die hard battery calibrator but I need to know if it can be used on g2x. And if it can be. Then how? The thing is that approximate battery showing on the script is different than the actual.

Calibration for a battery for the sake of making it better is just a myth. It's only beneficial when charging a new battery.

Hmm... yes I haven't saw any difference with V6 Supercharger even though It is said on HFP 2.2 OP that it works. I just used the die hard calibrator to see the actual current of the device. Now it says you need to be on 4200 mv in order to start calibration. Although I tried very hard and couldn't get passed to 4190mv. Anything I do after that (e.g turning the screen on reduces the battery). I have also installed Battery Calibration by NeMa referenced on the g2x forum here somewhere. It is said on that app and told by some devs that due to frequent changing of roms and kernels, battery values and may get mixed up since we don't wipe the battery stats while flashing through CWM.

Calibration for a battery for the sake of making it better is just a myth. It's only beneficial when charging a new battery.

Initially I thought that too. But what about the difference in the approximate % of battery left. Like when my battery was 100% the script and the above mentioned tool said it is about 4185mV which is approx 98% and that it needs to be 4200mV to be 100% and after my battery got 0% on stats (in just 9 hours with hardly using the phone just sync ON) the script shows there is still some juice left . approx 30%
And you know what . when the battery got to 100% on 4185mV. I del the battery stats and thats how I pushed it to 4190mV as I know Li-ion automatically stops charging once the battery is full. I am thinking of removing the battery stats again before it reaches 0 to see whether the device still works as the script says there is juice left. If there isn't then of course the device will turn off automatically and I can declare that script flawed for g2x once and for all.

Are you using the original kernel from hfp2.2 it has the ds version of fauxs kernel so the battery Readings are not correct at all.. If so flash a kernel with the cm battery driver like trinity or faux cm version

I haven't said anything about game performance. I said the battery drained when playing temple run from 80 to 5%.

But that doesn't have anything to do with the baseband, is what I'm saying.

Temple run was just an example. What I meant there was that I thought baseband has a direct or indirect effect on battery timing when using phone rather moderately with Data
On.

Hey DJLamontagneIII ... I just installed T15 Trinity. still not feeling good about battery drain. M gonna try Faux's . Which one exactly should I go for? I am asking that since I can't find UV kernel for 050 CM. Should I go for SV 050 CM? or is it possible to install 013 GB as on the OP it says it supports EaglesBlood. m not sure how as EB is CM7 based. m using HFP 2.2 as told earlier

http://faux.androidro.ms/Use 049 or 050.... 013 is for stock GB which EB had a long time ago.. With these a d t15 you have to UV with SetCpu or similar app... Follow that guide I posted earlier

Thanks .... installed 050 with the expectation of getting overheated as reported by many users. BUT ... it works perfectly .. slightly warm when charging but Perfect ... I compared its voltage values with T15 . Faux's are much more lower... still the device is working exactly how it should. I haven't OC it yet as it is performing much nicer and swiftly even on stock clock while gaming and using the phone normally. I know overclocking will get a decrease in battery timing right now as it is SV. so I will use your guide to UV it myself.
As for the battery calibration thing. I just came across a post saying a google engineer bunked the myth of calibration since most calibration script/apps just remove the battery stats file which does nothing except resetting the used stats. It doesn't have any effect on battery memory etc... That's why i removed the better battery stats app and installed CPU Spy as I think the frequent root access by better battery stats may also cause partial wakelocks or maybe m mistaken. Anyway if I found something fishy on CPU Spy. I will reinstall the better battery stats app to investigate. Now last but not least the CPU Sleep app I mentioned as bonus. While it is a nice app it's useless on Faux's kernel as he has already implemented that on 050.
Anyone reading my thread want a stable all round gingerbread and kernel combo. My suggestion would be to first go for HFP2.2 and Faux's 050 stable combination over CM7.2 latest nightlies as HFP2.2 is based on CM7.2 stable while the (should I say stock) CM7.2 nightlies still have that flash streaming problem (Till date). Also the video camera in HFP2.2 is awesome not to mention the newly added ICS launcher interface.

Mods can now close this thread if they want to or leave it open for others seeking maximum performance out of their specific g2x device. Thank You everyone.

Glad you got is sorted see how different devices are I get sods wile charging overnight with 050 stable.... And just to clarify hfp2.2 is based on CM7.2 RC2 not stable so it's a little behind the nightlys or really weeklys

Ok..... getting the SOD now what do u recommend? 48 stable or 49betas. As I can't find 49 stable. Also does these have 1 processor sleeps and 500MHz limit when screen is off like 050 or do I have to do both of these things externally?

[Q] Best ics battery life rom/kernel?.

Hi, ive been searching trough isc roms and kernels trying to find one with a good battery life, but there isnt, they all talk about customizations, power, performance but not about battery life. I flashed CM9 with its own kernel and its nice, but it got crashed some times when i was websurffing and the battery life gets like 13hrs of standby and 3 hrs of usage (wifi, network, display), so i went back to GB stock. im not sure if its an isc problem or just becuase of CM. Well id like to know if there´s an ICS rom or kernel that gives me atleast 24hrs of standby and a good stability.
And what about the CM9 crashes?, its isc´s bugs?
Im wating for a JB release, as it seems to be bettter than ICS. Thanks for reading , and sorry for this questions, is just that xda is the best place to find information as im a newbie in android c:

try the hefe kernal or one of the newer ones posted by team Fahq. Might help with stability.
Then flash the battery mod posted by itzik2sh. That made a very noticeable difference for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1985073
I was running ultragen with hefe kernel+itzik2sh's battery mod and was getting very very good battery life and the phone was stable.

Also changing the governor to SmartAssV2 can result in great battery life, even if my phone is clocked to 1.2 or 1.4 GHz.
But if you do not understand overclocking, do not try it, I read a couple articles before I actually OC'ed my phone.
If you want performance and battery life pertaining to kernel, you can try Hefe or Lightning Zap.
Other than that, you can try tweaks around OUR forums and see the results. You can also install Pimp My Rom to install tweaks.

, dont worry about overclock, i know all the risks and even CM9 from team acid gives you that option. But just let me know man, what is a governor?, never heard about that, and how much time you got of battery with that?

This thing called google brought me to a link to explain governors, so I thought I was paste it for you, even though in the time to type in your question you could googled it yourself.

As to say how much battery life? Doing what? On standby? With the screen on full brightness playing GTA? Connected to data all the time?
There is no answer to that, because everyone uses the phone differently. Obviously if I say I get 2 days out of my phone and someone else gets 2 hours, maybe I only sent 15 txt messages and they watched HD Youtube off data for 2 hours while their GPS was on.

Wifi and GPS use a lot of battery when always leave on. Turn it off when u don't need it. Hefe kernel seems to help with the battery drainage issue.

Dont get mad man. About the search, ive done that, but here i can find a better and smaller answer. And about the battery,as you suere read in my first post upside i was saying in standby and a light use, and how much it lasted for me (a very short timefor a new battery). Anyways, thanks for the link .
And thanks mike y, Ill try out your combination.

I'm currently on UltraGen with Hefe-KOD kernel. Great battery life with good performance. Attached screen shots is with lite usage. Came from AOKP Milestone 6 latest build. Great battery life as well. Will probably go back to AOKP in a few days.

Thats a really great battery life . I have another question, that battery life is because Hefe Kernel or Ultragen?

That battery life is because he doesn't use his phone.

Ive noticed of that, but even when I was on CM9 i got only 15 hrs on standby, either way, what thing really provides that battery life?, Ultragen or Hefe kernel?
