Just curious about what ROMS and kernels people have liked best so far.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
Right now I am devoted to using the Das_BAMF series of ROMs as well as the kernel by Adrynalyne. I find it works very well for what I need.
I like debloated stock personally, using my own kernel.

me too. staying with this until CM7 comes out.
I'll definitely be switching to cyanogenmod when it is complete, much prefer it to anything else.
Das_BAMF, perfect for me so far.
Das BAMF as well with the 1.76ghz kernel. It's a beast.
boLTEd 0.3. Drods 1.8 kernel running like a champ.

Virusrom, testing out several kernals using adrynalyne 2.0 ATM. Liking it. Better battery life than running OC'd all the time. Bolts still quick at 768mhz. Mo Batry!
Tbolt - VirusRom_rc1b2-drod1.8ghz
Das bamf with the newest kernel 1228 on CPU perfect light OC.
Tbolt seems even more snappy, battery seems to be better also with smartass CPU setting.
My first Android my first ROM and kernel and I could not be happier.
Ive been rocking Virus Rom also for like a week. Extremely solid rom with Adrenalines 2.0 kernel.

Running boLTEd .35 and the 1.8 kernel, drod is a solid dev. I was with him on the dx. And will stick with him on the thunderbolt. If you want speed and stability drod and b16 is where it will likely be.

Amen to that.
1.3.2 with the 1.2ghz smartass kernel is a dream.
Perfect storm and drods 1.5 kernel. I got liquid sense on the sdcard but Havnt tried it. I'm probably the only person who likes recent apps in the pulldown lol. Kinda limits my Rom choices.

ok, ya i have tried most of the roms and i really like bamfs rom, i have tried the 1.8 ghz kernel and 1.2 right now. i'm just interchanging the kernels with roms right now to find a good combo of speed and battery, but i'm definitely going to get cm7 when its released
I'm having issues figuring out which oc kernel to flash I need some opinions please

im pretty sure theres only one its morfics eb froyo 1.04 kernel im almost positive that will work for stock someone correct me if im wrong u also need the app pimp my cpu to oc it and uv it

Right, there are two from morfic, excellent kernels one is regular froyo, the other is maxmem which gives you 48mb extra of memory, both are great but for me they both gave me minor problems, sleep of death and browser lockups...

What are the benefits/downfalls to undervolting? Does it save battery life or make the CPU work even harder? I'm using AlienMinds latest 1.2 with the -50 UV mod. Just flashed the volt mod this morning and haven't really had time to monitor the results.
I'm a noob to most of this stuff so if anyone has an answer or insight that would be awesome.

From my experience with it, it helps. Before I did the tweak I was running CM7 stable and my battery would brain very quickly. After I flashed LorDModUE v3.1 with killersloth's UV my battery lasts way more than it used it. I think with a combo of undervolting and SetCPU profiles makes for a good experience.
What is Killersloth's UV?
I use vipermod to adjust voltage. Using Lordmod UE 3.1 with -50.
Im running Gingerbeast OC'd to about 1250 off charger and Using Pinky's undervolt script and I get nice battery if I am not "using" the phone as a Laptop/PSP. lol else it dies no matter what you do.
If I just used it for text here and there and a few calls It would last 2 days easy.

Ok. I use the CPU Modding that came stock in the cm rom. I have the set CPU and used it on the non cm roms. Should I use it in place of the stock?

I use SetCPU because of the profiles. I set it at a low MHz when the screen is off to conserve battery.

So you tried undervolting and now you are stuck in boot loop? Did you take a nandroid?
Yea i fixed it but I still have the same problem with signal. Before undervolting I have great signal. Just wish that I could have the best of both worlds
I would try consulting some other users that use the latest MIUI. See what they are using that works. That what I did with to get my CM7 up to speed.
Using SetCPU and the profiles works wonders for battery life.

I think undervolting will give you less heat? (well on computer stuffs it does)...
and saves battery, but undervoltting too much can cause unstableness..
DOes anyone know what happens if you undervolt too low?will the phone crash and will it revert back to the previous working settings??( its like this on pc).

When i was playing around with undervolting if i got it too low the phone turned on for a few seconds but when i tried to use it...boom...crash and reboot. soooo i found the sweet spot and it works fine. very happy
I have a Droid X, a Droid Charge and my brother has an incredible 2. We both have chainfire installed and for some reason verysingle game plays many times smoother on the htc with the adreno 205 than on my charge with the sgx 540? any reason for that? even the games that are coded for tegra devices run on his so much smoother. i tried a game called falling fred, lags some on my charge, runs super smooth on the inc2, i have a galaxy tab 10.1 also runs super realy nice on that, and on my droid x it runs about the same as the charge. there is nothing wrong with my charge because ive played with 3 or 4 of them and they are all the same way. Any solutions?
Sound like you need some voodoo lagfix in your life lol... Are you running any custom roms or have custom kernals installed
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA Premium App
I agree with cold... Go for some lagfix
Charged up post!
i have voodoo lagfix courtesy of peanutbutta jelly time i really need a way to fix it
The SGX540 in these Samsung devices are underclocked severely. They are more capable but they can stand quite a bit of overclocking. Some devices come with the same gpu clocked at 385Mhz instead of 200Mhz.
The lag fix is ok but once we get a CM7 build it will look sloooooow. Been there done that.

I think I would rather see CM7 implementation if for no other reason than their dedication to constant updates. And they are all pretty much the same mtd based thing. OMGB shouldn't be any faster than CM7 and it lacks features.
Just my experience from the fascinate. Omgb and omfgb *seemed* smoother, not that cm7 was slow. And they pump out updates for their roms pretty regularly. If you don't think they're dedicated, then you don't know t3hh4xx0r.

I bailed on the Fascinate just as both CM and OMG came out so I missed out on all the fun....

And what fun it was. Glitch kernel allowed gpu overclocking. **** was intense. 1.6ghz cpu overclock and aggressive undervolting were commonplace due to the stability that mtd brought.

It's not that I think they aren't dedicated, but the system in place for CM7 updates is far more structured and doesn't depend on one or two peoples' dedication.

Yeah, I could never overclock my Fascinate much before MTD. I was pulling 3000 quadrant scores at 1.4Ghz with a 233Mhz GPU clock speed i believe on the Glitch ML kernel and it actually run a good 8-10 hours that way to boot.
i refuse to have a phone that runs at less than its capabitlities. we need that gpu overclock! any devs can port it?

Then do something about it yourself. Glitch is an aosp kernel so porting isn't really an option until we have aosp roms to make use of it so that's quite a ways away. A gpu overclock may be possible on tw but I haven't ever heard of it being done and the devs capable of working on it probably have enough on their plate as it is. But who knows, maybe someone will pick it up I guess we'll see.

I'm on Glorious Overdose V2. Has anyone else found a stable overclock yet or is it not stable at all? I'm running at 1.052 GHz and I haven't frozen yet. But anything higher will eventually freeze me.

generally what i saw, and had on mine for awhile was 1.2 OC
I usually overclock at 1.2 which is relatively stable, once I went up to 1.3 though, after about 5-10 minutes the phone rebooted... lol, usually I think 1.2 is the safest though.

Stock ROM (rooted), tried several speeds. too many crashes. I gave up and uninstalled it.
1.2 on Glorious Overdose? Epic crash for me >.<

Haha, yeah thanks. I read that too, but I was in denial. Something about the quality of the motherboard in each device.
Mine does 1.2 no problem. GOv2
Flashed Bali 2.2 over Glorious Overdose V2, bricked. Now I gotta ODIN, lol.
Edit : Back to stock, deciding where to go from here I may install GOV2 again, but flashing Bali 2.2 is impossible.
For a quick stress test, try downloading a benchmark app. OpenGL will be where you encounter problems and crashing.
I don't know of any significant overclock that is stable.
Good luck.

Thanks. Well, I ODIN'ed back to KD2 and did a clean install of GOV2. Hopefully I can overclock it, it was feeling a bit slow. And LauncherPro probably isn't the best launcher to use for it.

Overclocking with Tegrak at 1.2 GHZ on Glorious Overdose v2 with no issues after a couple hours.
Don't know what the benchmarking really proves, if anything, but mine just hit 1421 after i overclocked. is that good? lol

that's kinda why i asked if it was a good score or not. i'm pretty noobish but learnin quickly...
does it matter what i'm using to benchmark my device? i'm using quadrant standard, didnt know if they varied in results.
I'm sitting here getting to know Tegrak, there's several settings i'm not sure what to set that might help optimization, doing some further reading on that now.
i also didn't realize that when you use the free version of tegrak OC that you hafta redo the settings anytime reboot. so when i overclocked, rebooted, and ran a benchmarl test, it gave me non overclocked results. so i redid test and got 1690 this time. a far cry from your 2000+ though lol. any suggestions sir?
I've got 1951 using Quadrant.
I'll probably buy Tegrak, once some good settings are shared.
About 2000+ as a Quadrant score while overclocked with 1.2 on GOv2 sounds about right. Although mine crashes if I try to launch a game like Temple Run or something memory intensive. That's why I have to choose a much lower overclock like 1.052 or 1.1.

when i was on GOV2 i was using launcher pro + underclocked to 800mhz and was still butter smooth, and could sustain a 400mhz underclock. (after a day it would lock up and reboot.
Try something like the RD 3D benchmark.
Could also try getting GTA running on your device (provided you have the know how)...
Anyhow, heavy load with OpenGL is likely to crash your device when overclocked. If you can get a "stable" setup, have at it. Good luck.
