whats the best combo

whats the best combo for rom and kernal for the g2x.
im about to install the eagleblood 2.3.3bg (since it has the stock camera) and was looking for a kernal so i could oc it. thanks for the help
also whats best 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 or 2.3.5????

For the most part, rom choice is going to come down to personal preference. As for kernels, faux's is pretty popular. Personally, I'm running eagleblood 2.3.3 and stock kernel.

I am running Triggers 2.3.5 with Fauxs 0.3.5-sv OC to 1.4Ghz and it is awesome. No reboots or issues at all.

There is no kernel made for the ota (2.3.3) roms only 2.2.2 froyo, 2.3.5 cm, eb2.3.5 so basically any rom that is based off the new 2.3.3 ota will not have a oc kernel for it yet LG didn't release source, and best rom kernel combo is definitely cm, and fauxs latest or morfics it a toss up, but honestly the newest nightly runs so nice u wont need one and it has voodoo built in and boot up time is super quick, idk IMO oc kernels are not needed with this phone it is already sick quick I get 3100 quadrant with cm stock kernel, now if u want to save battery life grab a UV kernel

blondie or brunette?? LOL its all up to ur taste for roms and kernels! Im having a great time using the rom and kernel on my sig! But all depends on you and your phone... (some phones dont like oc/uv), the only way to know is to flash, flash flash and flash (watch out not to become a flashaholic...)

Any rooted 2.3.3 ROM, with the Stock Kernel, and LG Camera App.

[Q] Suggestion for new ROM for Nexus S

Currently running MIUI 1.99 with Matr1x #5 kernel. Looking to flash a new ROM and/or kernel as it's been awhile. There's so many of each that I don't know where to start. My main priorities are stability and speed.
The only other ROM I've used is Cyanogenmod but I had a lot of issues with random reboots. Have these issues gotten better?
Any ROM suggestions? Thanks

Rooted stock with Matr1x. I recently switched back after months on CM7 doing the nightly flash routine. Don't miss it a single bit.

I don't even remember what the stock rom is like. I got cyanogen almost inmediately after getting my phone. Perhaps I'll try stock... what's the best way to go about doing this? Do i need to unroot my phone?

backup apps with titanium backup + factory reset (wipe data/cache/dalvik) + flash stock rom.
here you can find a great collection http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063664
you DO loose root by flashing a stock rom, but you just have to re-flash superuser (and maybe cwm if needed). I find the stock gingerbread rom very fast and reliable.
Plus, you'll receive the ICS ota when it's ready
(but you'll need to flash the stock recovery)

Wait another 2-3 weeks and flash ice cream sandwich.

Flash deck 1.3. Really fast stable and great battery life. Its just like stock rom with a few extra tweaks. Has some of cm7 mods without the bloat. Has toggle switches on the drop down and some status bar tweaks but very stable and like I said its close to stock. Running it with matrix 9.0. Give it try.

Sorry man its in the nexus s 4g dev section but i cant find it on the GSM dev section. You can always try oxygen rom which is very similar to deck which I was running before I flashed deck. Has the same kind of tweaks more or less. Was also a really good rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285243

give carbon a shot. it's based on oxygen but gives better performance than any rom i've used since getting this phone

Nexus mv paired with franco kernel
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium

I'd suggest NSCollab and a trinity kernel. This combo worked well for me but I caught the flashing bug since getting this Nexus S and now I'm off to try Nexus MV.

you should try superosr rom (AOSP), very fast and include CM settings as well

I've been trying all NS Roms, and I'll prefer NSCollab because,
-Fast and stable (Near 5000 in quadrant)
-Never had a random reboot
-Extremely stable at 1,2GHz
-Probably the best CM7-based ROM
I don't give a opinion about which kernel u need to use, because they are all awesome, for the highest score in Quadrant, use the Trinity TUV kernel.
But I like the Netarchy or Matr1x kernel more because they are more stable in my eyes. I hope this will give you some more information
U can also wait for ICS (IceCream Sandwich), it will be awesome too.

I'd suggest stock rom + stock kernel.
lower quadrant score but higher performance

Oxygen 2.3 with Matr1x
4097 quadrant at 1,3Ghz.

*UPDATE*
Try the Franco.Kernel, tested it, very stable and high performance.
Greets.

Matr1x all the way bud lmao

any idea with i am stuck at google logo after flash GlaDOS with brainmaster's MIUI ?

yes , i did reply in GlaDOS's post , but looks like i've been ignored ...so i have to post here see if anyone could help me with it ...
i was using FRANCO kernel , and then flash GlaDOS both BFS and CFS and 2.2 and 2.3 version , all stcuk , fine , first of all i figure it could be problem due to residual file of FRANCO kernel
ok , then i just flash whole new MIUI ROM with everthing wipe and then flash GlaDOS , but still stuck ...
any idea ?
thanks in advance...
and Merry Christmas to all

Which version of the ROM and kernel?
If you flashed ICS ROM, then it should be OK to flash GLaDOS 2.x. But if you flashed GB ROM you cannot flash the current GLaDOS kernel.

................kidding me ???
i throught there is GlaDOS for 2.3.X ROM ???

You can't flash a ICS kernel on Miui gingerbread base rom, its gonna get stuck. You need to flash an ICS kernel on a miui ics base rom or whatever ics rom your gonna use.

Try this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1397393
Good Luck !

Wow, so you really flashed an ICS kernel with a GB rom??
Best practices for modding your phone:
1) ALWAYS backup your existing setup before flashing something new.
2) Read, research, read again about what you are doing before you do it. The last thing you want to deal with is a truly bricked phone, especially since it can almost always be avoided.
Not trying to come off as a prick - just trying to save you from a lot of unnecessary grief.

Nope
There is GLaDOS for GB, the latest version is 1.12, which is not in the OP anymore, but you can find it somewhere in that thread.

well yes ics kernel to gb rom, this is kinda embarrassing, i saw other kernel has 2 separated threads or 2 versions so i thought same to glados ....
and thanks for concern and advise, my phone wasn't bricked, I am still able to enter recovery or fastboot, once get there I can pretty much deal with most problem I have encountered

[Q] Kernel for stock rom?

I have a fully rooted phone but sticking with the stock rom, the latest. Is there anyway I can flash a better kernel capable of overclocking?

Pull a nandroid then flash one via CWM. I don't think the current kernels are optimized for the last two versions of stock software. Which version of software are you running. If the kernel sucks load your nandroid and you are back to where you started.

I'm not sure how to pull one from the custom roms. I have OTA 1.63.531.2

None of the currently available kernels will work on a stock ROM higher than 1.28.531.10. So, if you're running the latest 1.63.531.2, you're out of luck.

overclock cm9

So i just installed cm9, and my phone can only go to 1188mhz so how do i over clock because i know the sensation can go to 1.6

Install system tuner and try to raise the value. If not, install a kernel compatible with cm9 and u should be good.

On some of the early nightlies I was able to use faux123's 005b3 asop kernel and overclocked to 1.78. I only used it on a couple of the early nightlies. I tried flashing it a few days ago and got bootloops. I think that was on nightly 01, maybe 30.
Stock kernel works fine for me. Overclock will probably be available sometime down the road. Someone on cm9 dev thread is running faux's kernel now, apparently without problems. I guess YMMV, or maybe that should be MMMV.

Isn't there a kernel less than 1.78 like 1.67 or something. A 1.6 kernel should be ok and u don't need to turn it up to max.

For CM9, faux is the only one that maybe works as far as I know. There is a mod over in the dev forum that overclocks to 1.5, I think. Haven't tried it, so I can't verify.

cm9 was great, but it wasn't stable yet and couldn't be over clocked
so i tried aokp that wasn't as good the screen looked too small and spaced out, but yo ucould over clock. And unfortunately without me knowing my phone was backing up my apps, ON MY DATA, so i owe virgin about 200$ now =_= for using 70$
In the end i went back to arhd, do yo uguy have any recommendation.

Use faux kernel 005b3 it will over clock it to 1.728.and it is stable and will run great.I have been running it for 5 days no problem.

First make double sure the kernel is compatible with your rom and operating system and firmware . Then wipe cash.and dalvik cash, then flash like a rom. By downloading the Kernel to the root of your SD card and flash through recovery. I like 4 ext recovery. After wiping you install from SD card then reboot. Hope this helps.
Of course do the download first, then wipe, then flash
