Favourite combinations? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What are all your favorite kernel/rom combinations for performance and battery wise?
at the moment im using CyberGR-MOD|NS.NGN ICS v.7 HYBRID with Matr1x kernel which i find is very smooth and normal battery life.
What are you guys playing around with?

nuhetri-reloaded v2.1.0 (unreleased at the date of my post) + Air Kernel 3.0
Just,just perfect...Believe me

Basically...

This is not an appropriate place to ask.

I can not use my phone for 5 hours and come back to it with the exact same amount of battery. Then I can get about 4 hours of on screen time with constant data use and overall heavy usage. Gets me by a day at school with 50% battery life (or 44%). And it is fast.
Oh and this is the wrong section . Ask in General
Nexus S (GSM i9020a)
CM9 Nightly Kang (Build 5 of 2.1)
Eugene's Kernel (Speedy-7)
OC 1100/100 (conservative)

wrong section...
nonetheless, IMHO, best combination is AOKP Milestone 3 w latest Matrix...

[Q] best kernel and custom voltage in miui?

it would want to know what is best kernel for better battery in miui in nexus s, I I have the franc kernel is good kernel. but the battery does not last to me much…. I have seen in some forums people who at least last 14 hours to him and until but, any application with its serious configuration helpful for my
For BM MIUI GB, I tried for about 30 kernels (versions). The best battery life has franco kernel from 27.10, but the best performance/battery life has Glados 1.12..
what is your recommendation with respect to everything
ok
if it is for GB, I tried can the franco kernel but of date 8 11, I am going to test to see that so… I am using the ROM KelLMSKing MIUI I feel well with this ROM, brainmaster is good? I am going to try also although not if to settle above….
All phones handle voltages different.
What works for some, will be unstable for others.
Example: I can't run any Trinity kernels with stability

OMG! which one

So getting a Nexus S 4G and i see there are alot roms so what would be the top 5 i should try
In my experience, every single one is worth running. We're really lucky to have so many talented devs sharing their work with us.
For stability I recommend codename Android or crossbones. Cna is more fully featured, but I couldn't get the market to let me buy apps on it. Ymmv. Crossbones is very stock-like, but everything just plain works and it has never rebooted on me.
If you're after performance mark vis' cm9 with v6 supercharger script is hard to beat. The euroskank cm9 kangs are rather good as well.
Aokp is the top dog feature-wise, gummy nex is a close second. These also have the most themes available if I'm not mistaken.
Congrats on getting one of the best phones around. Don't forget to experiment with all the awesome kernels we have, and remember that all gsm nexus s kernels will work on our 4g model also.
I'd link you but I'm mobile. Good luck and happy flashing!

I've tried them all and AOKP has proved to be the most feature-rich, smooth, and efficient rom for my phone.
It is frequently updated, has cool themes available, and runs fast and smooth. My favorite kernels for this rom are Steve Garon's. I've hit 50+ hrs of battery life with almost 6hrs of screen on time with this combo, with zero reboots or lag.
Ahhh man that's a hard one..
There's just so many to choose from! Lol
Currently I'm trying out vhgomez's LOTA r1 and it's pretty nice but I'm using trebuchet launcher because of the "join with apps" feature that makes the app drawer open up quickly every time, but overall its very nice. But in my experience with the ROMS I've tried I would list MY favorites as
1. AOKP ( feature packed )
2. Codename Android ( stable with awesome mods but keeps it light )
3. Apex ( quickest IMO )
4. Bugless Beast ( super stable with nice noti. toggles )
5. CM9 ( overall nice, stable, couple of nice tweaks )
This isn't in any specific order but here are the ones I recommend...
1) AOKP (Milestone 4)
2) Pete's Bugless Beast
3) CM9 (3.4-current)
4) Slim ICS
5) Codename Android
I have personally tried a CM9 Kang, CNA, and I'm satisfied with Milestone 4. The other ROMs I've heard GREAT things about. The ones I personally tried pack more feature, where as the other 2 focus on minimal features and maximize performance and battery. There are however, many other great ROMs like Gummynex that I haven't mentioned. Try a lot of them. You'll also look into Kernels... Matrix, Eugene's, and my favorite Air Kernel are the recommendations...
Nexus S (GSM i9020a)
AOKP (Milestone 4)
Air Kernel (3.45)
OC 1000/100 (Lionheart)
Live OC 105

CM9 nightly 20120310 has the best battery life, is stable with some features, not as many as CodeName, but enough for me.
try this .. miui is the best...
[ROM][4.0.4][MIUI][2.3.2] Oodie pRiMe " rOcket fUeled " | 05/March | Smooth !!
Nuhetri's v3.0.1 has been the best for me. But you might want to try at least 3 to 5 ROMs before you decide which one you like the most.
You can check bedalus work on benchmarking ICS ROMs, it might tip the scale:

Bugless Beast for straight stability, oxygen for stability plus some mods.
I haven't tried to many but those 2 are pretty awesome. I tried CM7 but I didnt like it, it seemed to "loose" if that makes sense lol. But NSCollab is pretty good even though its based off of CM7 it feels like stock and it performs well

And.... as for

Slim ROM is awesome

Each rom/kernel thread have positive opinions on battery life, basically. You also have to realize that all phones are different and there is no guarantee that yours will mirror mine in performance or battery life. So, the best way to find out is to try for yourself. I've referred you to bedalus' thread and he has done a ton of work regarding battery life and performance. If you want my opinion, I know that OTA stock is actually not too shabby. If you want to try aosp, Bugless Beast ranks high for it's stock philosophy and as for a kernel, the popular ones are:

I've listed only a small sample size. The Nexus S has great support and variety so spend some time in the development forums and flash what is offered til you find a good combination.

[Q] Best rom and kernel combo?

Dear Nexus S users,
I tried alot of roms with my NS i9023 but I still haven't found the best rom + kernel combo..
I wanted to know what you think is the best rom or kernel or even both.
right now I use the latest Pixel Rom with Matr1x 19.0 kernel.
It works great but I still think I can get more out of my NS..
Thanks .
Hmm..im just using bugless beast rom..just satisfy even with stock BB kernel
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk 2
Bugless Beast or AOKP are the only ones that seem to work for me without any issues. I've stuck with Simple Kernel since it's pretty close to stock and is the only one that hasn't frozen my phone up(my phone is temperamental apparently). . Best bet is to experiment. Not all phones are the same and results vary, as you can clearly see from my phone!
Thanks guys, I'll try the Bugless Beast
Androxide 2.0 with Trinity kernel works great. The kernel comes with a preset color configuration that has made the whites actually look white. And its great performance wise

4+ hours of on-screen use with the settings in my signature.
Nexus S (GSM i9020a)
GummyNex (4.0.4 - 102)
Matrix Kernel (CFS - 19.0)
Lionheart tweak (1000/100)
Deep Idle (Off - Noop)
So far oxygen with teuv for battery.
Anyone have good rom/kernel suggestions for battery life?

I'm now on the new rascream sandwich, with Eugene's Sppedy-7, and am loving the combo so far. Cheers!

HI guys, IMHO, best combo-duration is Androxide 2.0 - Matrix 19.0 (LIVE OC, DEEP IDLE ON).

[Q] [Q/A] Best kernel for BLD

Hi guys! I'm new to android and I'd like to know which kernel implements BLD the best. I'm running codename 3.6.6 (with air kernel I guess) and BLD isn't great on this rom (I've set the bld delay to 0ms in nstools, but whenever I tap one of the buttons they light up for 1ms and then go off again).
I was thinking of GLaDOS kernel but will it support codename 3.6.6 (jellybean) or will I need to flash some other rom?
If I have to flash some other rom which one would you suggest?
(I've got a Nexus s )
Thanks in advance!
Do you just want the backlight off all the time?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
Yes, I prefer having the backlight (on the 4 buttons) always off. But I want those buttons to function normally.
The minimum delay is 500ms regardless of the kernel
I recommend marmite kernel
I recommend reading the forum rules before posting around this site again.
Asking about best ROMs/kernels etc is a great way to get threads locked down.
I'm facing same problem...Yesterday i installed new rom named NIK Sensetion XL...or smthng...It has sense 3.5 wid android 2.3.3 ...this rom is overclockin my cpu from 1024 mhz to 1228 mhz...i dun like this overclockin...i used set cpu bt stil it fail to control my cpu...how can i stop this overclockin???

I'm using codename 3.6.6 and i've set the delay to 0ms (I guess codename uses air kernel) and the backlight switches off a lot faster than 500ms (I've tried delay=500ms as well and the lights go off a lot slower with that setting)

Hi, I actually posted this in the General forum and it got moved (I'm a reader who just started posting ) So, sorry about this but I wasn't asking best ROM/kernel combination, just want to know the best kernel for BLD
