This just made selecting a kernel to use a lot harder. LorDmod or Tiamat? Decisions, decisions.

To those who have tried these out, do you have any reviews?

So far so good. I flashed this last night and i'm going to run this through the weekend and let every one know how this goes.

Working great on ninja so far, have to test battery life first

I get better battery life out of the LorDmod UE kernel but the Tiamat kernel is much more responsive so that leads me to believe it's related to the CPU governor. I'm using the PUV script/PUV voltages with both and while LorDmod's kernel gets better battery life, I'm still over 60% with Tiamat at the end of the day.
I'm still torn between the two and think I'll use Tiamat for a few more days to get a better feel for it; it's definitely left a good first impression.

Glad to see you developing for the inspire. Have been using your latest kernel with cm7 on my evo. Now trying this one out on the girlfriends inspire. And also is it possible to get SBC support with this kernel in the future?

SBC and the concept behind in is particular to the way the evo/inc battery driver works. Other devices use a different driver so it does not port. Really, you're better off for having a driver that doesn't 'need' it.

Lord Clockan incorporated SBC support in to his UE kernel for a while and basically found that it doesn't work on the Desire HD/Inspire. He's using a different "overcharge" feature now but I'll be damned if I can remember the name off the top of my head.

With MIUI and perfect match!!!
I installed in my inspire with 1.7.22 and the battery drain stop, i did remove setcpu too. Happy and pleased!!! Keep the good work!!!

Using Tiamat 1.0.3 with CM7 nightly #134, runs like butter at 1113mhz, battery life is better as well. Great work!

Giving this a try with Miui 1.7.22, using "No-frills";
Max; 1.574
Min; 192
Gov; smartass
I/O; sio
max clock 2.035?

Scratch that, my phone doesn't seem to like the kernal, just locks the phone up. :/

Excellent kernel. Been running it since .1
Now with under volting, even more battery savings.

My Inspire would freeze on anything over 1305mhz, I found 1113mhz to be the most smooth and stable for me. Very well could be an issue with your ROM, the OP or one of the devs on the MIUI site may have a more insight.

Anyone running this with GingerBeast?

I was just about to ask if this was supported. I'm already overclocked with good battery life, but I want to try my hand at under volting.

I am running 1.04 with Gingerbeast 2.12. I am using SetCpu profiles, the UUV script to undervolt, and it runs perfectly. I have been running this setup for a few days now with no hiccups and very good battery life.

Well time for an update. I found out that the camera does not work with gingerbeast. I tried to reflash to make sure it was the kern and it was.

Figured I'd chime in after testing with 1.04 for a while. Battery life is pretty much the same for me with Tiamat and LordMoDUE, just about everything else is very close as well. I give the clear edge in overall snappiness to Tiamat, with even better performance after screen unlock - pretty much no noticeable delay with smartass governor. I'll definitely recommend this kernel to anyone reading.

What's the best ROM and kernel combination?

I have the nexus s 4G. I'm most worried about speed and battery life!

I think i'll be getting the TUV Trinity kernel... now which rom?

GPA17 with the included kernel. Pete's stuff is always amazing and this is no exception.

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,.

Yeah Haha, have you tried version 7.5?

Best *Gingerbread* kernel.

I'm not feeling ics,.. so being a caveman living in the olden days of gingerbread, I'd like to know what you guys think is the best kernel. And post a link, because I have no computer and xda search sucks on the app. I need performance .. I'd like to be able to play games like shadow gun and gta 3, that aren't optimized for my phone (using chainfire of course) the best they possibly can. I've heard alot of good about Franco's, but I'm on matr1x right now. Thanks guys
PS. I'd like something with ezekeels mods. A gingerbread GLaDOS seems like it'd be perfect.. thanks again

Here's the list sorted by my preferences:
* franco.Kernel build 8 DEC is my daily driver. Fast. Smooth. Comes with almost every features in GLaDOS. The preset Voodoo Color settings is also pretty sweet.
* GLaDOS 1.12 is packed with all Ezekeel's mods. It is very stable though IMHO is not as smooth as franco's. It supports Voodoo Color as well, but there is no preset in the kernel. The bootscreen is also pretty cool Unfortunately, there is no link to GB version in the OP anymore.
* Matr1x - You're already using it. (Sorry I was confused between this and Trinity in the first place because their names are both related to The Matrix >_<) Full with mods and tweaks for performance. Fast and very stable. For me, it's performance is very close to franco's.
* Peter Alfonso's 2.6.35.14 kernel is one of the most stable kernel I've tried. If you don't want deep idle, touch wake, etc. This one will give you stability, battery life, and performance with the feel of nearly stock kernel.
* Trinity Comes with pre-configured UV/OC of your choice. There's nothing wrong with it. I just don't like its bootscreen and the 666 thing in build number
NOTE: Other kernels that are not listed here means I haven't tried it yet. Not that it's not good or anything

Could you give me the link yo Franco's..? And does Franco's support the proton voltage app
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA App

The links to each kernel are in my first post. Just click on the kernel names.
I use NSTools to config the mods/OC/UV but I guess Proton Voltage should also work fine

The only one with the link is peters

You could be a tad less lazy and click on the links suksit gave you. Franco has a link to his GB kernel near the end of the first post.
Ezekeel does not support GB anymore, but if you search the thread with the search tool (oh my!) you'll easily find more than one link to it uploaded by members.

Sorry but I'm too poor for a computer, and search on the xda app is complete crap -.-

Most kernels are taking the step to ICS,
But for Gingerbread, I should go for Peter Alfonso's kernel (most stability, nice battery life).
If you want some more performance, go for SG-11UV of steve.garon, this was my daily driver on Gingerbread,
because I needed BLN, BLX, etc, and it comes with a standard 1,1GHz overclock.
I have no time to upload links, so sorry for that.

[Q] recommended kernel ?

HI guys
Im currently using MIUI US Rom ver 2.4.6 with stock kernel. can anyone recommend me a fast and stable kernel compatible with this rom?
Will these do the trick?

I've heard only good things about Trinity, but I stopped using MIUI a long time ago, it's pretty outdated at this point.

I personally use the Trinity kernel when running MIUI but some prefer Faux123's kernel. It tends to be you choose which ever one is the most stable for your phone as not all are created equal. The other thing to note is that if you flash the kernel straight from morfic it will cause you to loose the ability to set themes and keep them after a reboot.
I have the modified Trinity Kernels that you can get to try and they both are flashable from CWM and have the theme fixes.
They are both found here >>Trinity Kernel<<
If you want to know the difference between them go to morfics thread and the explanations are there.

thanks for the elaborated explanation and the Trinity builds. but what stability lose am i to experience? i flashed 4 hours ago ELP build and i have no problems with the themes.

You aren't necessarily going to experience stability issues. It is just a possibility you could. If you aren't then you will be fine.
I do suggest that you get setcpu so you can set the clock speed to the 1.1ghz that the kernel wants to default to but the os pushes it down to 1.0. But it is not a nessecity.

The Destroyer
I would use The Destroyer16. I've seen many MIUI G2x's run stable and decent battery life (with a little UV) with this kernel. Plus 1.6ghz max will rip benchmark scores like crazy. Only good for gb 2.3.7 MIUI IMO. You can find it in the huge Trinity thread under g2x development.

dont do this unless you know what your doing. it works on any CM7 based rom, but its very unstable and really only used for testing and benchmarking.

Tw freezing = bad oc?

Hey guys, I was running 1.782GHz for a while but I would get touch wiz freezing on me from time to time.
Do you guys think this is oc related?
I just reverted to one step lower than that, whatever it was.
Hopefully that fixes it.
I'm running sky ics rom and cymbaline kernel. Using an oc script.
Thanks!

It could be the voltage settings. If its not getting enough juice it can start to stall and worse case reboot. If you can rule that out it could also be GPU clocks if they're clocked too high.

I find that our skyrockets don't do well with mix and matching kernels and roms that haven't been tweaked to work together. You may want to try embryo 4.1 if using mohan's kernel. He write both and the integration is almost flawless, and the rom is a touchwiz base which helps our finicky skyrocket with stability. What do you need the overclock for?
Sent from my SGH-I727R

I really don't need the oc. I just wanted at least an oc since I love overclocking lol.
If I get any more problems with volts/oc ill see if I can edit the oc script to give more volts.
Thanks guys.
No problems thus far
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2

fair enough, I don't really like to oc due to lack of cooling for these phones, and they seem to run best if not too over done. been using deadline for a governor though and find its far more stable and efficient (great battery/performance) than cfq, so that's my only other recommendation for cymbaline.
