Im sort of confused which I should pick. Im currently using faux's 0.13 kernal for stock @1. 4 ghz. Which kernal is the best when it comes to battery life, performance and stability?

That's really unknown. This phone differs too much from one to another.

Okay, but what is your opinion?

If your phone doesn't have issues with it, Trinity ELP is best for battery.
If your phone SOD's, crashes, won't boot, etc... don't ***** to morfic, just try a different kernel. Any problems you have are typically due to a phone's incapability to use various settings, not the settings kernels themselves.
I just flashed trinity and when i booted into phoenixblood my phone freezes. I think I will be sticking with faux's kernal.

I've tried them both, I just switched to Trinity I was running faux and the battery life was outstanding.. trinity seems to preform a smidge better I think? But unsure on battery life yet, but seems to be worse on the battery so far.

Will fauxs stock/gb kernel work on weapon 3.0 ?
The only reason I stay on faux and don't bother to try other kernels is because faux allows me to play plants vs zombies on any rom .
There was a post in the general section on a Trinity vs faux benchmarkings.
Trinity won over every test they had, but only by a little.
I believe performance wise, Trinity is better, though some prefer faux.
Your choice.

i'm running oyasumi kernel (based on faux123, undervolted and overclocked) with tsugi, and i get amazing battery life. 2-3 hours of use with max brightness and the battery barely went down to 95%.
Trinity for performance & Faux for battery life.... But honestly in my experience, trinity isn't sacrificing much battery life but you gain much better performance. I prefer Trinity TD158 oc'd to 1500. Best performance with better than stock battery life... Just try em all out, thats half the fun of flashing!

I've played with all the various kernels, and I agree with tokentatortot..
At least for my phone:
CM7 stock is decent all around, and better than the stock kernels.
Trinity T15 for maximum overclocking and max performance ( Quadrant over 5000)
Faux123's 0.48 is faster than stock, better battery life than Trinity and also slower than trinity.
Currently using PhoenixBlood 1.6 (Faux v.48 stock clock ) + V6 super charger.
I guess I'm not heavy duty user, as v6 supercharger does not seem to make things majorly different..
oddly, on my phone, the faux123 0.48 SV seems to have better battery life than faux123 0.48 UV kernel... go figure.

I've been using netarchy kernel for the last few days, but because of the cm update i have to reflash it, and i thouht that i could maybe flash another kernel. I got scores like 2000 with my previous set up, bur i saw people getting 2500 w/o oc. The netarchy kernel i used did have a great batt life, when the screen was off at least. So whats another good kernel? What i want is voodoo, scores like 2500 and underclock when screen is off for good batt life.
Thanks!

Hello, I would just like to hear some opinions on what your kernel experience has been like. I would like to know about how performance and battery life have been, as well as any glitches or bugs you've seen with either kernel. Also I would like to know what you've clocked your processor to and with what means.
I will be using ARHD 4.1.3 so if you have used your kernel with this rom that will help a lot.
ps: I am aware that with Faux kernels you can use the Daemon Controller app to control your clock speed, but I was wondering what the best means of controlling the clock speed with Bricked is.
Post away!

System tuner works very happily with Bricked.
faux is better
I like faux because:
1) Has, generally, more features
2) Works well with Daemon Controller--less resources on CPU/workload on batt than SystemTuner
does it help with the power button/screen flash issue?
I use bricked because faux kernals tend to make my phone extremely hot

I would have to say Bricked because I have tried them all and as far as reliability and performance.

Honestly? I think both kernels are excellent. Both devs are amazing at what they do and I've happily used both of their kernels in my wife's and my own Sensations.
My wife's Sensation has Faux 0.2.3r3, while mine has Bricked 1.5.
As for clock speed control, I generally stick with FauxClock to work with Faux's kernel. I use SetCPU and init.d scripts to control Bricked clock speed and voltage respectively. I'm just not a fan of System Tuner.
Both phones are set at 384/1188 wake and 192/432 sleep. I raise the clock on mine when I feel like playing some FPse.
I have used both bricked and faux kernels. Here are my observations: Faux is faster but has bad idle battery life. I actually get better awake battery life using faux. Bricked seems to be slower but I get amazing idle battery life.
I have used bricked 1.4r2 and faux 2.3b4, 2.3b16, 2.3r3, and 2.4b6.
Bricked had never steered me wrong. Been using shows kernels since I started with arhd. Faux kernels seem rushed and always in need of a fix. (just my opinion)
I just oc daemon to control my kernel.
I was using 0.91 for the longest time until I broke down and decided to try 1.4r and it is working beautifully. But try then both out. To each his own.
I think both kernels are great. But I think more developers use Bricked. Currently I use Bricked because it updates more often and I can download test builds.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
I used faux kernel before (with ARHD 3.6.5) and bricked kernel right now. Both of them are good. And in my experience, idle battery consumption is slightly better in bricked kernel than faux. But they are not different a lot if you often turn on the lcd to use apps, games or other else.
i tested bricked faux and tiamat on the FpSE playstation emulator and running stock 1.188 mhz only tiamat played gran turismo smoothly using the "lagfree" governor, so i use tiamat now.
and in the benchmark id have to say bricked performed better that faux
In my experience, Bricked has been more stable (I had freezes with various Faux kernels) but assuming both are working 100%, Faux has been slightly faster while Bricked is better on battery life.
Will you guys swear at me a lot of I say that stock is the best so far? 2.3.5 I mean

This is exactly it. I've used both Faux 0.2.3r3 as well as 0.2.4 release; and Bricked v1.5.
Faux has worse idle battery life but better awake battery life. Bricked has better idle battery life but shorter awake battery life.
What is the best Kernel for CM7 for long battery life?
In my opinion Trinity.

Im running eaglesblood with Trinity so far its been pretty sweet.Eaglesblood alone was great on the battery.Just installed trinity early this morning charging up now to see how the battery last today.
which one you use from this list:
Current G2x Kernels for 2.3.5+ builds: (Only for Nightly 173 and up)
ELP 15112011 (1.1GHz Battery Safer)
T15 15112011 (1.54GHz Fun Edition)
Previous G2x Kernels for 2.3.5+ builds:
ELP 06102011b (1.1GHz Battery Safer)
T15 06102011b (1.56GHz Fun Edition)
ELPmax 14102011 (1.1GHz Battery Safer)
ELPmax EBlogo 14102011 (1.1GHz Battery Safer)
T15max 14102011 (1.56GHz Fun Edition)
http://www.derkernel.com/
?
ELP 06102011b (1.1GHz Battery Safer)
So far battery life is really good.
I'm on ELP 15112011 and it's very stable. Having trouble with my prox sensor though... might try to reflash or something.
I just went back to my latest back up of just Eaglesblood rom itself.I had the phone where it wouldnt wake up when hitting power button.It was just black with a very dim light in the background.
Testing it without trinity to see if thats what caused it.
So does Trinity kernel give better battery life than the CM7 kernel?
Not trying to highjack the thread but whats the best kernel for MIUI? Im running the lastest MIUI and kernel is CM7 faux
I have tried to put faux kernel on Eagles's blood but everytime I try I reboot and get a black screen after lg - tried low volt and regular ...
I like CM stock. Just works.
G2x - 2.3.7 CM7
Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV
I find stock CM 7 to run perfectly fine, I can easily get through the whole day with decent usage.
How and where do I get trinity

Well, that's not comforting. Are you using CM7? Did you clear all caches before updating the kernel? What exactly is the "reboot issue" anyway?

Hi
I recently got into the rooting and modding Scene.. and I wanted to flash a new Custom kernal for G2x I know about Faux and Morfic's Trinity kernal .. But couldnt decide between them ... i tried to install trinity when i had a CM7 7.1 stable release but the phone got stuck in a bootloop .. i am now running the latest nightly #217 with stock cm7 kernal .. Could you please reccoment wjich kernal should i Use??
I am mainly looking for Battery life and abilty to play games (Asphalt 6) thats about it.. (right now i have under volted my phone to 760 mhz)
Thanks guys
i run morfics extreme fun edition. its blazing. i have used faux123's kernels before but switched to trinity because it clocks higher and is more stable in my experience. also i like morfics boot animation better.
also with trinity my battery readings can be funky. like i will have wifi hotspot running for 30+mins and still get the same battery reading. but even though the readings are odd in my experience i have gotten more juice out of trinity.
Try em both and decide for yourself. Kernels are easy enough to test. Trinity is working very well for me with CM Nightly. Havent tried Faux, no need to. Trinity is stable and that's what matters to me most. Your mileage may vary though. Check em both out for a few days, and see what works best for you.
thank you guys .. I will try trinity out...
Well, I personally prefer Faux, but on a side note, you're not gonna get that great of a battery life playing games on it.

Just gauging how many of you are still using Trinity kernel considering it hasn't been updated in months, while Faux is continually working on his kernel.
I've noticed freezing/overheating issues with Faux but I like that it's updated often enough.
Edit: By no means am I putting down Trinity kernel, just interested in the numbers

I prefer Trinity. It's been stable for some time and I can run my G2x for 35+ hours on moderate use. I've used Faux, but somehow I came back to Trinity.
On ICS:
I used Harsh when I was on ICS. But my experience in ICS generally has not been good (LG/NVidia not releasing drivers). So I came back to GB.
I prefer Faux
Trinity works better on my g2x. I think faux is a bit more aggressive, and my phone just acts better with the more conservative kernel.

On stock based 2.3.4 I like the stock kernel or Faux 014b2. On CM7 based I prefer TrinityELP for stability and batt life. I do find since Faux's 050 builds battery seems as good as ELP, and Faux has seemed to make scrolling super smooth. But Faux is still just a bit unstable on my phone. I am currently using the djvoleur adaptation of Harsh for CM7 roms. Its good too. I've had no probs with flashing between any of these kernels other than LED touch keys cannot be set to off when using Faux or Harsh.
I am a fan of all 3 - really...
Trinity ELP for GB
I tried everything out there and always go back to that. Fast, smooth, and good battery life. Plus it seems to be the only one that my phone's bluetooth can stay connected to my car's stereo. with other kernel (maybe coincidence), the two refuse to connect after a few connect/disconnect cycles.
also, many people say 24+ hr of moderate use. Is that with stock battery?
to me, moderate use = 3-4hr screen on time. 1hr phone call. wifi, BT, 4G, GPS always left on. 50% screen brightness. I typically get 12-18hr with trinity.
Heavy would be 5+hr screen on and more
Trinity gives me sleep of death, faux overheats and freezes I'm using the kernel that came with cm7 without any problems. Though I did get the SOD before I installed the build.prop tweaks
