Kernel question - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a kernel out there that is based on cm7 nightlies but includes voodoo sound and color? I love the cm7 kernel but would like voodoo. I don't care for overclocking.

There is no such thing as cm7 kernel. The included kernel with cm7 is simply the stock kernel. You can use ogdobbers kernel or netarchys. If you dont want to oc, then dont. The option is there, but disabled by default. I recommend netarchys.

Netarchy works with cm7 nightly builds?

Yes, they've always worked. Use the universal 2.3.4 with the CM7 nightlies.

There's really no "best" kernel; each phone's cpu is slightly different, and may work better with one kernel over another. Both the trinity kernels by morfic and faux's kernels have followings that love them; I personally and having great success with faux's stuff. Best to just nandroid, then try them each out and see what your phone likes best.
Aite I can dig that but wat do u use to overclock and undervolt cuz I dnt know wat settings to use with set cpu

Use pimpmycpu. Setcpu as I understand it doesn't work right with the tegra2 currently. You can get pimpmycpu for free here on xda (just search it), or if you want to support the dev you can buy it in the android market. As for specific settings, it once again comes down to each chip is slightly different, so you'll have to experiment. People will usually post what they've been successful with in the respective kernel's threads though, if you want a place to start at.

Faux cm7 kernel is pretty much your only choice since morfic hasn't updated his kernel with the newest cm7 chances in a while

I personally use CM7 w/ matrix kernel. Very stable, great battery life... no complaints here. I was also on the stock de-odexed w/ netarchy's kernel and that was great as well, I just like the added features on CM7 personally
Yeah I think I might just stick with cm and try that kernel thanks

I prefer Netarchy's kernel. Use that with Proton Voltage Control to UV to save battery life.

Rom/kernel

What rom are you using I'm just tryna figure out wats the best for my ns4g, also wats the best kernel for speed and battery life?

I'm using MIUI 1.7.22 w/Matr1x v5.0 bfs and performance and batt life has been good. Koushdecks 1.2.1 is also good as well, Mikeys roms are pretty sweet too. But everyone has different taste on these kind of things. So try to use one that fits you best. I usually just switch from rom to rom once in awhile.
I'm using oxygen 2.1.6 just come from cm7.1

MIUI 1.7.22 with Matrix and my own build based off Koush's with Netarchy
the latest cm7 kang with an unreleased(yet) Trinity11 UV kernel.
Miui seems laggy or maybe I had the wrong kernel?

Try the modified MIUI by brainmaster: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1181050 (incl the - imho - best kernel)
I think that's for the ns only. Or am I wrong?

I'm using Matr1x 5.0 cfs kernel with stock ROM. I haven't OC'd but the native settings seems to be giving me a good balance between speed, stability and battery life.

[Q] Does anyone know why YouTube crashes in miui?

are you using the miui kernel or another custom kernel? sounds like you are using a custom kernel with BIGMEM that depends on the rom to support the BIGMEM.
I was using air kernel, maybe that's the problem. Now switched to matr1x.

is it working now?
It does, but matr1x also support bigmem, I think air kernel forces, while matr1x adapts.

theres two ways to do it.. either the kernel does it and expects the rom to support it(thats how it was in the beginning) or the kernel does it all(most have adapted it this way by now, i think). its just a matter of adding some lib files to the kernel so that it lets every rom work with BIGMEM.
also had problem with any video playback on air bigmem...

need new kernel. help.
