Well I'm still fairly new to this and looking to learn a bit more . I am pleased with my current Hellfire 2.1 now I'm looking to exntend my battery life to the best I can and I was told this can be done with kernels, Soo I was hoping I could get some suggestions and anything that could help me out understand this a bit more.
I am currently using some Faux Kernel that came with the current Hellfire phoenix release.
Lot of people say to use Trinity with this Rom but no one says why nor in the xda page of this kernel say much about what it does, I like to be well informed before doing any changes.
also how do you install a kernel just download and install from zip from clockworkmod recovery like everything else? or is there certain steps to it?
First off this should be in the Q&A...

I'm currently testing the trinity kernel, The 1.1ghz one for the better battery. Using hellfire phoenix 2.1 so far its the rom I've enjoyed the most.
Any other kernel that anyone could recommend for the best battery performance I could get I'm pleased with the stock performance of the tegra 2 I have no need for overclocks.
Harsh kernel is the best. Flash it and see for yourself

Morfic's Trinity ELP if your phone can handle it as it varies phone by phone. But I also use Faux123's kernels and they work well enough.

Don't flash it because you're using a GB based ROM...
Harshs kernel is for ICS ROMs...

When choosing a kernel you should first know that they all are, in the most basic sense the same, but have little tweaks that make them all different. I know that the Trinity kernel has the Voodoo sound driver built in that is much better than any other driver. Also when choosing a kernel you need to just try a few and see how stable they are as not all phones are created equal. Some can handle the Trinity kernel and some can't (and same with all others). When you find one that works well with you just stick with it. And, as I like to say, to each his own.

I'm trying to find out the best way to install a new rom & kernel.
Should you update kernel first then rom? or rom first then kernel?
Always rom first then kernel.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Thanks for the info...
any particular reason why?
Because when you flash a rom it contains a kernel that will erase any kernel you flash before hand. So say your wanting to flash morfics trinity kernel for cm7, you'd want to flash cm7 first then trinity kernel.
With the rom your using.... does your APN work?
I've tried the Power+ Volume UP and still no APN connection. My settings are there an selected but it doesn;t connect.
It should work, faux's rom are second to none imho.
But for right now i couldn't tell you since my baseband is unknown and gonna be sent back to LG.
y doesnt faux have goveners in his kernel...
or does he and i just downloaded the wrong 1 ...im using his kernel and my batterylife is terrible (very heavy fone user)
Its like that for all rom's and kernels for g2x.

Because the default governors of stock kernels are already very good.

I think you need to grab an OC kernal, and there is an app you can use for your processor. I think in development if you look at a sticky it tells you everything.
Just download and flash a custom kern that's OC'able and then install an app (I use setCPU) to over clock to your desired clock speed.

Does SetCPU do any good for my phone if I'm using a stock kernel? Right now, I'm running WeaponG2x with stock kernel.
Also, if I do need a custom kernel to use SetCPU, can someone recommend a good kernel?
Thanks.

You could underclock/undervolt and set profiles, but not overclock. There are only two OTA based kernels for G2x, Dragon or Faux.
Dragon:

Quick and straight to the point, thanks so much. Oh, one more thing, what's the main difference between those two kernels?

Probably the only difference is which one your phone works best with. You should try them both out for a couple of days nd then stick with whichever u like the best.

I'm using a dragon version for CM7, very stable very solid.
For weapon you'll want to use faux's kernel. He has a thread in developement somewhere with his gingerbread, froyo, and weapon roms

I've download a couple of kernels like teuv, matrix, and air kernel. But I keep switching between them because I feel as if none of them are working....can someone suggest good solution?
Sent from my Nexus S
If your phone is like mine, you might want to make sure that the kernel you use is set for default voltages. Matr1x in particular won't run correctly unless I reset the voltages.
Eat at Joe's
Run the stock kernel.

+1 on mathkid's suggestion. You're phone might be a stock-lover.
I attached the stock ICS kernel here, or you can check out the stockish kernels such as (click for download sites/link):
_thalamus
SimpleKernel
Franco's
Hope this helps!
I don't like the stock kernel either.

trinity t132.. cant go wrong with that one http://goo.gl/q3CnT
well, unless your phone cant handle it. its great at 1.32ghz, and its great running at 1ghz.
Thanks for your suggestions!!! I think I'll try the stock kernels and see how it goes
Sent from my Nexus S
My phone only likes stock/simple, thalamus, and Pete's kernel. Every other one always gives me issues after a few days. Just stick with stock or modified stock, like thalamus as stated in another post.
Have you tried SimpleKernel by terryhau? Its the stock kernel with Voodoo and BLN added. Seems like a great solution for you.

Can I flash the Infusion Kernel 1.8 onto Emancipation A: 1? For all intensive purposes I'm asking if the kernel can be flashed onto any rom.
I don't want to ask a stupid or noob question but, I haven't been able to find my answer anywhere. When I first started the rooting/flashing a rom process I was gonna go with Zeus Z-TR which I believe has voltage control built into it. After a bit of reading I settled on Emancipation but, I still wanna be able 2 OC/UV.
Also, I'm wondering about the beats audio that is built into the Z-TR rom. Is that because it comes with 1.8 kernel?
So, if someone can answer that question I would really appreciate it a lot.
I'd just flash the new synthesis kernel and as long as you're on gingerbread, you can flash another GB kernel you wish

I'm thinking Infusion is Froyo and Emancipation is GB. If those facts are correct, then NO, you can not

Thanks for the answers. After looking into it some more its safe to say I'm stuck without OC/UV since its GB.
If youre on gb, flash the synthesis kernel. Its oc/uv with working mhl on gb.

I'll not familiar with synthesis.....must be new within the last year.
There are several kennels named infusion. The one you (op) mentioned was Froyo.
But developer/member Zen has two GB kernels named Infusion that allow overclock...Zen's Infusion A and Zen's Infusion B. 1600 for A and 1400 for B
