I am testing this now, praying the BFS scheduler finally gives me a lag free CM7 experience. Is the minmax governor a better performer than smartass?

I prefer x99's smartass, I think he just tweaked it recently on his github. I think minmax is a older govenor. I also get better battery life with the smartass
I just added minmax for testing purposes and to have more governor options

Thanks for the update will test over the weekend.

Nice, well I tested it to the max for a whole day using gps navigation, wifi, 4g, pretty much everything lol. Data connection also seems better as well.

Soo far everything is working good. My wifi works perfect which I couldn't get to work with x99's kernel no matter how I tried flashing it including a full wipe.
What speed does this kernel boot at? Is there any way you can implement any of Scary's goodies into your kernel? I liked that his let's you do 184 min. Also any way to go higher than 1.5 ghz as I like using 1.8 at times. What is the sleep max on say ondemand etc. Anyway your gonna do undervolting?
Anyway thanks for the kernel and the hard work!

yes as soon as my team member get's back from vaction we'll be working on things like that. So the kernel can be worked on more
I basicly pushed this kernel out as soon as I had it working perfectly

After an hour or so of testing I have experienced no launcher or messenger app lag, whatever you did here its working for me.. I wonder if its the BFS? Do you know if bcnice aosp kernel used this too? His kernel is the only other like this that performed so well..

yes I do think it's bfs. I noticed how well the animations and graphics are so smooth. If I went back to none bfs I don't think I'd like it haha
Not sure about bcnice has it

Don't install this kernel version over the latest nightly, some things like wifi seem to not be working. I'll work on a updated version as I really want to stay up-to-date haha

Updated kernel but I have to remove bfs due to compatibility issues

Soo far everything is running great. I have no issues running 1.8ghz at all if I'm using ondemand governor.
How much did you undervolt? Meaning is it kinda like scary's or more like Bc's or X99's.
Thanks for making a great kernel. Everything works for me perfect.
1 request... Can you add 184mhz like Scary had? My phone saves lots of battery when I use it.

Awesome kernel!!!! Very smooth and I as well have no issues oc'ing to 1.8ghz... Great job man, keep it up!!!! Thank you!!!

This is running well on on the latest shiftdeck rom. Fixed some minor video issues (lag) I was having with other kernels. Nice work!
<Blaze One>

This kernel is nice and fast on Shift Deck ROM but it seems to be a little rough on my battery. I've only been using it for about 4 hours, so maybe with some tweaking I can get it back up to par. Really enjoying the speed though.. Appreciate the great work.

Most of the changes in the nighties you are not going to notice a whole lot. The biggest changes are changes in the kernel. This kernel was built of the latest nightly kernel just a couple of days ago so it should be compatible with all the nightlies unless they mess with the kernel some more. But cyanogen just tweeted that we will have a rc soon So I'd just wait until then. Also I'm going to take a look at the stock ota update and see if I can hack the kernel and rom for us to intall without the latest hboot

heavy games from gameloft where used as test base

All ROMS and Kernel work differently on every phone ... some people have problems running Trinity and some people have problems running Ma1trix(I hope i spelt it correctly) anyways i don't mean to offend any of the devs but it depends on phone to phone
My Nexus runs smoothly with Nscollab .41 with TrinityEUV kernel (0.88 GHz) =]
Also Bugless Pete's GPA17 with the stock kernel which is btw Pete's own =]
and finally MIUI with TrinityUV android flavored kernel (1.0 Ghz) =]
to find out which one works best on your device you have to install and check them yourself
Hope i helped

There are no "problems" with Matr1x.
You just need to tweak the voltages and find something that works for you....

As a fresh NS user, I wanted something similar to stock + added notification bar toggle + kernel with BLN & Voodoo sound. Found this combo with TSM Pool party 1.3 ROM, which is based on Pete's work and his kernel. Works excellent:]

CM7 RC1 + T144 or TEUV if I feel like saving battery

Very true, I initially thought my phone doesnt work with matrix, Then i figured how to undervolt my phone and change profiles in set CPU, Now phone works great with matrix.
Really like TEUV though, but found it lagging a bit in high graphics games,.

rom recomend for battery life and low temp?

kinda of likr the title says i am looking for a rom hat does good on battery and not getting warm
Tried the two revolution roms and made phone warm as did the xboarder rom.
Any ideas which i should try next?

I have the best results with Energy. I have tried every ROM and always come back to Energy.

I am running ARHD v3.6.1 as well and my phone is warm as well...I flashed the Bricked Kernel v1.2 and that has made a difference, but not significantly. I tried clocking back to 1.2Ghz but that has made no difference.
I have been running BK with v3.6.x and not had one reboot, just the warm phone problem.

I'm using energy oct3 version right now but phone is getting warm, but could just b the kernel using bricked v1.2, but when I was on oct2 version everything was amazing, phone never got hot, and battery life was amazing, and this is wwith brightness at 85% all the time, 4g on, and texting consatlly, couple calls and 6 hrs of music. Think I'm going to go back to stock kernel on Oct 3 version n if don't help I will b going back to oct2 version.

Nice will try energy then arhd wasn't a getting that good of battery life. The phone ran great just got warm.

try pyramid3D. its great. im running it right now. good battery life and rarely gets hot

InsertCoin! I'm telling you, this rom is quick, great battery life when you underclock it to 1.2ghz from the default 1.5ghz and it's amazing with the updates it gets, and get's better all the time. Great dev support as well.

if you can be bothered to read through the arhd thread (i know its huge) but theres some stuff about changing thermal config in there mite be useful to you

Faux kernels run really cool on my phone. I apply the thermal patch too but I don't know if it is necessary. You can his kernels on pretty much any rom.

There is no best kernel. All the threads asking receive the same answer, that is that it all comes down to personal preference. Try them all and see what you like best.

Sleep of Death, phone goes into sleep mode and freezes. Raising the Voltages helps.

I have tried every kernel out there & have had trouble in some form with all of them, except for the Glados Kernel. Rock solid stable, & a nice balance of performance / battery life. Using NStools allows you to get the most out of the kernel. I use it with live OC set at 105, & the lazy governer. This is what works well for me, it may differ for your phone.

Thats a adventure you have to take alone
in all seriousness you gotta try out Trinity =]

Check out the kernels in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1283031
The nice thing about it is the availability of the 1320MHz frequency (if needed), yet you can run an undervolted setting most of the time and enjoy great battery life.
Most other kernels seem to be either fast or good on battery, here you get both in one package. Give it a test drive!

I'm using Trinity now with 1.54 OC. It's snappy but drains battery fast.

A millionth time I've seen such a thread, and a millionth time I say the same - "Its your own personal choice..."
Not angry or such but just trying to make a joke...
I'm pretty much happy with the Matr1x Kernel, Netarchy dies on me, GLaDos is pretty good too, Trinity dies on me too...

by the way, MIUI has its own kernel? When you flash MIUI, what kernel do you get in default?
how about CM7?

LeanKernel 12.2 on SynergyROM 1.4

I tried to reply to the main thread in the development thread for SynergyROM, but as I do not have the 10 posts required, I figured I'd put it here. If this is against the rules, please let me know and remove this.
Apparently the busybox install on 1.4 is a little botched, and as such, when you install LeanKernel 12.2, it doesn't run the scripts it needs to in order to run it's magic.
All you need to do to get it to work again is fix the install of busybox on your phone. You can download busybox from the Play store and install it to your phone, and after that, installing the kernel should be relatively easy.
I've been running 12.2 on my phone for the better part of today at work and have had no issues with it at all.
I'd attach a link as proof, but apparently I can't do that either.

This is what I did too and it's working wonders.

Thx for your post and gr8 find on the busybox
I have been trying to decide which one to load
SynergyROM 1.3
or
SynergyROM 1.5
Now I know that imo 12.2 will work
long as the busybox is loaded first.
due to the issues with 12.2 loop booting.
Now I can load 1.4 will let you know how it goes.
Thanks Again.

The battery saver from the script sets the max frequency on the cpus to 1134000. This can be changed in the script as well. I run the batter saver but change the max frequency to 1350000 for both cores. I do not believe the kernel has underclocking abilities currently, but I may be wrong. Definitely snappier with the kernel than without. The combination of the two is excellent.

You may have accidentally flashed the v12 of the kernel. On the thread on rootzwiki look under changelog and download v12.2 it should fix the LED issue.

Want to post in the synergy thread but now enough post counts -_-
Anyone can think of a compelling reason to not jump for synergy 1.4 with the lean kernel 12.2 and wait for synergy 1.5 instead? Eschelon made it sound like it would drop soon and I'm just trying to gauge from the comments on the synergy thread if there are major problems.....main things that bother me are battery life degradation claims and 4G speed variances.
Bonus: A tad off topic, but I was wondering if anyone running the synergy roms replaced their touchwiz apps with aosp apps? Reason I ask is because I cannot live without the ICS email client and prefer the messaging client as well.
Thanks for the heads up from everyone confirming the busybox issue with 1.4 to be compatible with 12.2 lean kernel.

If you want to play around with Google Now then go for 1.4. 1.5 will not require a wipe according to eschelon. I've found the battery life on 1.4 to be close to par with 1.3. Maybe a little more battery hungry, but not much.
