[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

[Q] stock rom vs custom rom

good morning,
i'm quite new on this phone even if It works fine for me with a stock rom 4.0.4 I would you like to understand if there is a good advantage to pass on a custom rom.
Please share with me your experience and answer with my few questions:
what kind of custom rom and kermel you have on?
which is the difference there is in term of battery life; performance; stability.
Thanks for your help

Welcome to the Nexus ... you're going to love this phone. With that said, you need to jump in and do some reading. There is no shortage of opinion on which rom, kernel, or even GB vs ICS ... is best. It very much depends on your likes, dislikes, etc. I assume that you have a gsm device, so make sure to flash the appropriate roms, kernels, etc. Lastly, there is lots of help available, but it's always best if you dig in and bring yourself up to speed with what's already been posted in these great forums. Good luck!

thanks mate,
after few weeks i tested it, i find this phone a very good one and I don't feel the need to jump in a custom rom. I rooted it, installed a busybox and the clockwork and I added some apps to eliminate some gaps like the missing notification when the screen is off (I installed the noled apk for it) or like a switch off or switch on of the screen using the power button (I used an apps called accendi scermo and I switch on and off the screen using the phone sensor). The only thing that miss on this phone is an fm radio offline. I'm still searching a solution.

Stock rom: more stable, less features
Custom rom: less stable, more features

Well if you want to be normal. Than good for you.
Now a custom rom and kernel can give you unlimited privilages to things you can never imagine possible. Undervolting your device to give you brain blowing battery life or over clocking to give you awesome graphics.
A custom rom like CM9 or AOKP (there are way more than two but im just listing the popular ones) is of course better than stock since... well if it wasnt why would they make it. A kernel links your hardware to your software, meaning you can do some tweaking in the middle. If you find the right kernel and rom mix you can have a wopping 15 days standby on your battery (eg CM9 and Matr1x Kernel).
Now thats just the basics. if you are interested and want more information. Just do a bit of research and reading in this forum and ask questions in those forums. Hope this helps.

ics 4.0.4 stock+ simple or thalamus kernel

Or Bugless Beast with one of those kernels

What is your preference for Jelly Bean Kernel

So I have not much time to experiment with Kernels rights now. I have tried thomas.rains and Dagr8's kernel.
From people's experience. Which of the three Kernels (I forgot to mention flapjaxx) do you think gives better battery life in idle state and screen on state? I know on Dagr8 in Badass governor, I have been getting 18 hours with medium use and 20% battery remaining. I just flashed thomas.raines kernel today, so I will test out the battery performance with my daily use.

I've recently started using the Lightning Zap! kernel as part of the Nibbles ROM. It doesn't have as many governor choices as some other kernels, but I've found it thus far to be solid and with fantastic battery performance.

That's great. I help others can get back. How did it compare with other kernels?
Edit** I realized how vague this questions was. In terms of performance and battery life, do you think it is better?
I know each kernel has it's strength and weakness, but just strictly in terms that I will not overclock and I want the best battery life and best performance, which kernel do you think give the whole package?

In also installed Nibble a couple of days ago, two kernel options, can't remember the exact name of the kernel I chose, it had a Zap in it, and it was version 3.
I had used Sean's on ICS, and was going to go to Sean's JB, but I started reading threads and liked what I read about this ROM.
It is the most stable ROM I've ever installed, and with the clock slowed down to 1,026, conservative governor and other power tweaks, I'm getting the best battery life I've ever gotten on any rom on this phone.
Very Very pleased. Install and donate!

In my experience the kernel doesn't make THAT much difference with battery life. I manage mine through controlling what's allowed to sync, disabling refresh in social apps, etc. The Lightning Zap kernel does a good balance of perf/batt without any need to tweak anything, but you can always try the KO kernel instead and tweak the governors, etc to your heart's content.

Kernel for stock ROM 5.0

Hey guys.. Returned after a long time on XDA.. Was using unrooted nexus since a year now..
Planning to unlock bootloader and get a custom kernel for my n5 currently on lollipop having LRX210..
Which would be the best kernel for stock ROM..?

"Best" ROM.
There is no such thing as a best ROM. The question itself is ambiguous. "Best" is obviously a subjective term.
What I want from a ROM may well differ from what you want from a ROM, ergo - what is best for me could be worst for you.
If you are asking what the most popular ROMs are, or which ROMs people are using, you can see which threads stay around on the first few pages (and have the most posts) in the Android Development or Original Android Development forums. You can also see what other people are running by reading the What are you running on your Nexus 5 thread.
If you are asking which is the most stable, being a Nexus device - they're all pretty stable.
If you are asking which is best on Battery, ROMs only affect battery if they have a feature that is badly coded. You will likely be able to read about this in the ROM threads. ROMs do not impact battery life. The only impact to battery life are your apps, your settings, how you use the phone and mostly, environmental issues such as Phone Signal.
For tips about improving battery life, please read [Battery Life Help] Troubleshoot battery issues here!
"Best" Kernel
Also, please note that as above, "best" is still subjective. What we all want from a kernel is different. Again, many people have the misconception that Kernels affect battery life. Let's get this cleared up. Although Kernel devs will build in optimisations and efficiencies that will improve battery life, these are very, VERY tiny...and if 1 kernel has these optimisations, they likely all have.
People will often say "Kernel x is better than kernel y for battery life". This is actually wrong. Kernels respond to user settings. Setting up the governor to favour either battery life or performance is simple enough to do, you just have to do some learning. The reason people think Kernel x is better than y is because developers set their kernels up with their preferred governor settings. This is what we refer to as out-of-the-box settings. The out-of-the-box settings for kernel x may well produce better battery results than the out-of-the-box settings for kernel y, which favour performance. The fact is, you as the user have the ability to tune kernel x or y to perform the same, be that battery or performance - so start learning how to do this yourselves - that way, you can choose the kernel based on the FEATURES you want, and not the fictional performance benefits of one kernel over another.
Hope this helps

I know this.. Got your point, Visiting XDA like after a year almost so forgot how even I used to answer to such stupid questions.. Will go through kernels.. Want kernel just for root and recovery and undervolting..
I would change it to say which is the most stable kernel with the stock ROM?

They're all pretty stable. Personally I prefer to use ElementalX, but really just look for features and try

best kernel

Hi guys. As the title i wanna known which is your opinion on the best kernel for s7 flat. I am using prometheus but i wanna your opinion. Thanks

This is a useless question until you can define what you mean by BEST...
The entire question is subjective. Best battery life has always been the stock based ones.
the ones that claim to have Better battery life over stock kernel are selective on the Grade of the CPU you have in your phone.

I mean which is increase more performance without decrease to much battery life

Stock kernel all the way. I feel that the s7 is fast already enough and I didn't feel that a custom kernel gave me better performance. The only thing that changed was that the battery life got worse. So the stock kernel gives you the best balance between battery life and performance.

There are Custom Stock kernels on the Android Dev Section here, it has many great features while retaining its "stock" feel.

which do you suggest?

@ninohs I'm currently using Superkernel since I enjoy having to choose many governors for different situations but as you prefer the stock type with optimizations, I recommend SuperStock Kernel c:
