[Q] g2x wont run any oc/uv kernels

I have flashed all of the eagles blood Tom's even some other Tom's and they work with the exception. Of the new 1.05 eaglesblood that has Caucasian kernel cooked in. I tried flashing fauxs kernels separately and the only one that works is the stock voltage kernels eveeytime I try to do something that undervolts it wont take when I flash it. Is there any way to fix this or fwt it to work or does my g2x suck? Thanks for any help!

umm just turn in your g2x to someone that is qualified to use it.

What is a Caucasian kernel?
That ladies and gentlemen, is signature worthy.
Edit: Forgot to even answer your question amidst all this racial kernel profiling. Your G2x can't handle the OC/UV kernel, nothing you can do about it.

It's not that he's not qualified. A known issue is that some of the phone's can't support some of the features of other kernels so the phones won't boot. I started a thread about this and Faux chimed in affirming what I thought. It's a fault in the chip. Some can OC/UV, some can't.

Thanks hiko I thought I read something about that but what I don't get now is I flashed the Trinity kernel nd it sees the UV 1.1 in set CPU lol . Ill have to do more testing. As for the Caucasian kernel I blame racist correct lol

Yup. I have this problem. My broken G2x can run custom kernels on Stock. But my replacement G2x can't even get past the boot screen after flashing one. I can't run EB Froyo, and I can't flash faux's kernel unless it's on a Gingerbread ROM. It's pretty lame.

yeah i wonder if getting another one would be any better though. im sure if i complain enough i could get a bvetter one, although the screen bleed on mine is actually pretty low compared to what ive seen so i might just hang on to it not sure

Dear OP. Wish I could help you. I do want to thank you for the laugh. Nothing personal. The typos made me spit out my coffee. It's been a long morning already, so I appreciate humor where I can find it.
As a couple have already said, not all phones are created equal. One of my phones would not OC and UV at the same time. I was able to hit 1300 stable on mine, but my wife, which has an identical setup, had issues at 1100. Faux released an overclock kernel without the undervolting. Have you tried that?

I have not as the overclocking was not as big of an issue as undervolting was for me. I cant get a single of fauxs kernels to run etx/GB/FR thats does oc/uv but the stock one does it just fine thats goes 1.0sv/1.2oc. the whole reason why i am confused though is i flashed morfics trinity kernel thats oc/uv at the same rate 1.1uv/1.5oc and it loads perfectly fine on my phone. Setcpu sees the standard at 1.1ghz max on autodetect, howeer i have not tried overclocking to anything more than that as i do not have any experience with making the textfile for setcpu to overclock it manually. im going to work on this soon but im hoping someones already made and posted this elsewhere on xda =D
PS: im on a computer this time and ill say this is better than my blackberry who decided to autocorrect "heterosexual" in place of "hey" everytime i tried talking to one of my friends but glad its good for laughs lol

I've consistently gotten Morfic to work as well. Faux said that Morfic hasn't released his source so he can't compare notes and see what's causing the issue.

i hope he does soon as i would love to try fauxs kernel as i hear more about it than morfics. morfics for now works fanfriggintastic for me though. m g2x ocs to 1400 without any problems at all on morfics however has some stability issues randomly at 1500 and i undervolt it always under 1.1 by 75 and runs perfect. battery life is currently at 60% still after 30hrs of use even after phone calls texts and internet usage. no games or heavy downloads yet though. <3uv and juicedefender

[Q] Custom Kernel

I installed the Infused 1.5.3 ROM on my Samsung Infuse 4G.
I've been looking around at the kernels, and I was just wondering if the one that goes with Infused 1.5.3 is fine as-is or if there's a more stable one that also provides better battery life and speed.
Stay with what I've got, or go with a different one?

Most people are happy with the kernel thats included in the phone already but custom kernels provide much more options as far as battery life, over/underclocking, over/undervolting, the way the cpu treats the voltages. It is all in preference.

Thanks for the information, but I understand this much.
I'm more looking for the most stable custom Kernel for my model of phone, and if they even do much better than stock. (If it's worth even flashing.)

Mostly all custom kernels are worth flashing. The hardest part is choosing so people usually flash 1 for a couple days to test out and flash another for the next couple of days and so on.

I'll look into it, but will Kernel flashing delete my data like ROM flashing did? I know it was from choosing the delete cache and data setting before I flashed, but do I have to do that this time? (Or is Kernel flashing super different?)

Thank god. Though it's not much trouble reinstalling apps so much as it is doing the entire setup process from scratch.

Right now there isn't much difference between the kernels out there except for gtg's Community Voodoo and Infusion OC/UV - over the past few weeks, most of the kernel devs have been cross-applying each other's patches.
GTG's kernel - Minimal changes, gtg has been focusing on ROMs/Gingerbread, handing off kernel work to others
Defuse kernel - This is one of the most mature kernels out there, LinuxBozo is a kickass kernel dev. It was the first one to have reasonably working BLN.
Infusion - Infusion carries about half of the enhancements present in Defuse in its current release and adds overclocking/undervolting. The next Infusion release (which is a bit overdue - bedwa had a crazy week) will contain everything present in Defuse except possibly for BLN, plus it has overclocking/undervolting.
None of the kernels really do anything to touch power management except for the Infusion undervolting code, so you shouldn't see any significant differences in battery life unless you run Infusion and undervolt.

Harsh kernel is the best kernel?

ok i have been using harsh kernel with aokp rom for about a week and i have had the greatest battery improvement. I literally get about with music playing throughout the day, constant texting, some calls, and some games; I get about a day and a half of battery and sometimes more. Idk if its just me but I was wondering is anybody else getting better results or the same results is there something better then what I got? Does the hellfire 1.6 have better battery or better performance then the aokp?

No one ROM or kernel is the best. They are all different and good in their own ways. If you're curious about if another ROM is better for you, the best way to find out is by flashing it. If your asking me, the best kernel for me is a custom built from source version of harsh without the overclocking and with done of nordics scripts and optimizations built in. I also love aokp build 29.
Now the next 20 posts can be 20 different roms and kernels just like every single other thread just like this one.

Hey sorry to bother u but its bugging me. When u say Nordic did u meant morfic (not being sarcastic ) and if so how do u get his scripts us harshs kernel. Do you flash his kernel then harshes after without wiping?

lol yeah morfic's (autocorrect is going to destroy this country) i build most of what i use from their sources, and i frequently mix and match things. its just something i do for myself. while i could release it out for people, not many would want to use what i have. i add alot of broken and ugly things to system apps. i even remove entire parts of the framework sometimes because i dont use them.
if you just want the best of both worlds (speaking of harsh and morfic's kernels) you can just flash morfic's then flash harsh's and you will get some of morfic's IO settings to stay behind.

im double posting on purpose, harsh has stated that people should not be flashing his kernel over morfic's
so im gonna retract my last post. if you want improvements, your gonna have to wait till he implements them.

Sorry to hijack the thread but you should think of releasing to the public, most developers develop for themselves anyways so yours would not be any different. All your posts that ive seen are always really helpful, i hate this 8 thanks a day limit.

honestly im thinking about it. i want to get a good server tower that i can keep running and have it do a build bot (right now my Compiler is running off of an external hard drive hooked up to an old laptop)
once i get the server up and running i might give it a shot.

I have no clue what that is but I support you all the way

battery life
That sounds pretty good, batter-life wise.
I get through the day with moderate use... but when I am using it a lot, I am in the red by dinner time on HFS 1.6 with Faux kernel.
However, when i ran the Harsh kernel in HFS 1.5.. I had some real connectivity problems... I almost went back to 1.4, but then 1.6 came out and ruled.
If you are getting that good of batt life and no other problems- I would stick with it

SBC Sense Kernel

Hey do any of you know or know of a working SBC kernel. I know it has caused issues with some people but I have had very good luck on my EVO with it. Seems to me that my battery is suffering pretty bad now that I have rooted and used a new rom.
Thanks.

I'm not entirely sure what an SBC kernel is but i do know there are a couple of tweaked Sense kernels floating around this forum. Iirc, the newSENSE kernel should be stable enough for all 2.1 Sense based ROMs (don't quote me on that though).
What ROM are you currently running? Also, are you on the stock kernel or a custom one?

I think the only SBC kernel is Tiamat.

That I know of there are no SBC Sense Kernels for the Shift. If your having really bad Battery drain, you may want to look at what's going on with your system. You may have a Rogue app, or a bad wake lock. I would definitely check into that. Also if you want to know more about Kernels before you flashing one. You can check the Links below.

SBC stands for Superior Battery Charging.

Cool I will take a look I was running Supreme Sense and it seems to drain the battery super fast like I can't get a whole day out of it, I will check and see if something strange is going on with it.

What does cpu spy show? You can download anytime and it will tell you how long the processor was at a certain speed. Also when running overclocked that will chew up your battery pretty good, the kernel is undervolted to try to improve battery life while holding faster speeds, but it dont always work

Another thing to keep in mind is what Apps you have Syncing, and how often. For example Facedbook is a notorious battery killer. I also run Supreme Sense. On average I get between 12-14hrs out of a charge. As strapped mentioned, being OC'd very high will also eat up the battery. What Governor, and Scheduler are you using?

Never really had any interest in SBC Kernels. But since this is the fourth post I've seen in about three days. I became interested, in finding out the advantages of SBC Kernels vs Non-SBC Kernels. The only things I've definitively found out are that, SBC Kernels offer more of a chance for problems if you do not know what your doing. The other is that there is a lot of debate as to the advantages of running an SBC Kernel.

SBC stands for Superior Battery Charging. You can check out THIS thread for some info. Also the thread HERE has some more info.
EDIT: Just more info HERE.

I used an SBC kernel on the OG EVO for a bit and found a sight improvement with battery life. But the mentality (after doing lots of reading on SBC) of the damage it could be doing ,I ended up removing it real quick. Just freaked me out.
Some people claim to never have problems and some reports have come for exploding phones. Crazy debates.
You can follow me on Twitter - @NotSo1nter3stin

I know what your saying. Huge debates back and forth whether it's worth running it or not. Some people swear by it. Others say stay the he'll away from it. I just flashed an SBC Kernel on the Test EVO4G to see what the deal is. But honestly it better be pretty Freaking awesome. Because running the Loinfish or Anthrax Kernel on the OG EVO easily will get you a day plus on one charge.

[Q] KERNEL alternatives for JB

Hi!
We have 3 different kernels for JB now:
- h0tcakez
- king kangers
- instigatorX
What kernel is better with SKYJB together:
- for battery life (uv) and stability?
- for speed?
Thanks for your opinion!

This is a bad question to ask. Here's why:
People have differing opinions. They are true to their opinion and will defend them.
Upon defending them. One of two things will happen:
There will be agreement that yes each item that an opinion has been formed upon has equal merit and therefore they are all good.
There will be disrespect shown towards others who do not share the same opinion.
In either case, you will not get an answer and it won't help.
My suggestion to you is try them all, there isn't that many of them to begin with. You can test them all within a week.

InvestigatorX's kernel is unfortunately outdated. So that's one down
DAG's is good if u want kernel options, but since u are asking this question u may not be able to fully utilize them
Flapjaxx kernel is closer to stock with just a few tweaks including uv / oc
for ur purposes I recommend the last one

my liquid RC5 is old than oct 14th, so i can not flash the last two kernels. my question is does the h0tcakez---Flapjaxx kernel support extra govnor like badass ?? i read the op and it says only standard govnors.
