Well I like matrix KERNEL cuz it has been really smooth for me. I also like bugles Pete's KERNEL cuz it also makes my phone run really smooth. But it all depends on the phone also. It could run good for me but u could have issues. I say just test them all out and see what feels better for u.

I use Yennob-Base "Base1 -1.2 Overclock | Tiny Undervolt" by dfbonney, which can be found here.

im using miui with morfics teuv88 kernel. miui runs really smooth and it saves lots of battery. also try the other trinity kernels and the matrix kernel.
so now its your turn, flash and use them and decide whats the best kernel for you and your rom.

I've been on matr1x and I just upgraded to the latest version 6.5 and I've had no issues. Maybe over the weekend I will try a new one and report back.

been on matr1x 5.5 and 6 but since 6.5 have too many random reboots, voltage increasing didn't help although had no problem running trinity T144 and so i switched to trinity TUV for everyday.

I like the Matr1x kernel

TEUV
Okay so I just flashed The TEUV 800Mhz Kernel and I lost WIFI
When I try to turn it on it just says error
Can anyone help?
I have a Tmobile Nexus S and I was on the stock rom with the James bond kernel before this. PLEASE HELP

I've used most of them my phone doesn't seem to like to work with Matr1x Trinity UV and EUV work flawlessly. and Buggless Petes one is the most stable for me i don't tend to use the extra functionality that comes with Kernels ..

So I'm coming from the EVO after having a nexus one g1 g2 I know what stock Android can offer first thing im doing is rooting but I wanted to know what are some roms I should check out cm7 is already downloaded but I like to try new things

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.

What overclocking speeds do you recommend??

Guys I was just wondering what are some safe under clocking and over clocking speeds that my g2x can handle?? Thanks in advanced!

Has anyone's G2x died from overclocking at 1.5?
Other then battery life this phone seems to run great at 1.5.
Other phones are not stable if you max them out but this phone is fine.
Only issue I'm having is restarting the phone with the Faux 0.1.3 kernel.

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
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA Premium App
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?
Brainmaster MIUI with Matr1x cfs...

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.

Best kernel for ns4g???

I have been having the morning lockup bug happening for the past couple of days. I am running cm7.1 stable with the stock kernel. I tried matrix 9.5 and kept having freezing issues. Any suggestions for a good stable kernel? I do not overclock or undervolt. Thanks in advance.

Try v10.5 and raise all voltages by 25

I just recently came from the epic. What is the difference between bfs and cfs? Which is more stable?

I have installed the Matr1x and the Trinity kernel But i think that the trinity waste more battery than the matr1x so i am thinking about staying with Matr1x
