can someone give me a link to the best kernel to use with ARHD rom with good battery life and performance
kernels
Anyone? Any kernel suggestions and why?
I can't link any kernels for you but I can tell you they're pretty easy to find on this forum. Try looking in the dedicated ARHD ROM thread, it lists a couple of kernels. I myself have good battery life and performance with the Faux123.
ARHD comes already with 3 kernel choices while flashing. Stock, sebastians and faux.
I use Faux underclocked to 1.08GHz. Great performance and really good battery life!
Phil
I found Faux's or Sebastian's good with ARHD.
Faux & Sebastian
Do some research on the forums...
Then, try faux or SebastianFM. I prefer faux, because it's really stable and improves the battery life. But try to read other threads, and opinion about these two.
Battery or Performance?

Do you prefer battery or performance?
Why do you need links if ARHD comes with stock kernel and also with other 2 custom kernels? (Faux and Sebastian)
Faux - Battery
SebastianFM - Performance, more like stock with improvements

I just flashed the latest MIUI 1.9.2. I like it so far, but the flash wiped my netarchy kernel with one that is incompatible with Voodoo.
So, which Kernel is generally regarded as the best for MIUI for battery life, audio, and well, everything?

Im using the trinity kernel and it runs great. Smooth, fast and great battery life...then again ive only been on MIUI and trinity kernel for about 2 days lol
I'm running netarchy kernel and it runs really good. Also bugless Pete and matrix are also very good for me. Just test them out and see what's best for you

Ive tested a few. Lucid is my favorite It totally depend on your needs tbh
Bugless pete kernel is the best , as BrainMaster himself uses it in his rom.

I personally use Trinity TUV10 - for me the best kernel.
BuglessPete's is included only because some people can't boot Trinity, and BP kernel is better then the stock one.
But TUV10 is the best - my opinion.

Thanks. I may try your MIUI out today. So you recommend TUV10 over TUV11?

if you are rooted i would highly suggest using pete alfonso's latest ics rom (1/2/2012) combined with eugene's lastest kernel (speedy 3). i have it 200/800 smartass v2 and for me the battery life is pretty good. also, i have calibrated the battery resulting in stellar performance.
Hello, I'm brand new to all of these roms and such, I've got a rooted 2.2.2 froyo g2x/lgP999. I am interested in getting a rom and a kernel. I am interested in getting ginger bread 2.3.3 and overclocking along with more battery life and a theme. Could I be linked to tutorials and suggested roms/kernels, and I have looked around but i really have no idea what im looking at so please don't say you've done nothing and are making us do all your work :\

Hi there,
If you don't have cwm recovery installed on your phone follow the instructions on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847 to flash it.
Then pick one of the following 2.3.3 roms and flash it following the instructions provided on the thread:

There might be more 2.3.3 roms available in the development section, also you might wanna consider flashing a 2.3.7 rom, if so check out the development section and pick one, or try several roms and pick whichever one you like most. Devs are more active with 2.3.7 roms, so you'll find better support and more features.
As for the kernels, you can usually overclock your CPU with any custom rom (provided you get the appropriate app from the market if there are no OCing options built into the rom), but I haven't used a 2.3.3 rom in a long time so I'm not sure if OCing is available with the stock kernels they come with. If you do go with a 2.3.5 (or above, namely 2.3.7) rom then you can try either:
Morfic's kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1078049
or Faux's kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1073626
They're both excellent kernels, Trinity (Morfic's kernel) has a known issue with rebooting, the phone will freeze every now and then when you try to reboot so you'd have to do a battery pull.
Faux's kernel doesn't have that issue, but, for me at lease, when trying to reboot into recovery it does a normal reboot instead.
As you might already know, the G2X has a somewhat crappy battery life, most people can't get more than 24-30 hours of battery life with the stock battery, and from what I read most of the custom batteries aren't as good as advertised, so your best bet is to use an under volted kernel and try to find some battery tweaks in the forums.
There's way too many themes to list here but basically, for CM7 roms you can look for themes in the market, and for MIUI themes you can use their themes app to find something suitable.

A note on overclocking:
Please know that not all phones respond the same when overclocked. In other words, some phones can't handle the same overclock speed as other phones. And also note that overclocking sacrifices a bit of battery life to increase the performance, the extra juice has to come from somewhere. I suggest starting from the stock kernel of whichever rom you choose, see how your phone does on a stock, unmodded kernel. If you want a little more performance, then you can flash a custom one and slowly increase clock speed over time to see how your phone responds. If you want more battery life, then you should read up on UV (undervolting) settings in the custom kernel. The key is to try and find a nice combination of both so you can benefit great battery life and performance, but requires some tinkering and testing to get that right combination. Just something to note.
Phoenix Blood 1.7 with Faux123 048 kernel is the way to go. Do some reading on Google how to nvflash cwm and do a Android backup. Also titanium backup your applications and your golden.
Making bad decision's one at a time.

Thank you all for the fast response.
Now I have a question, are kernels used to acheive anything other than overclocking/undervolting? And are there any for 2.3.3 roms, if so which would you recommend?

Yes, your phone won't function without the kernel (obviously) and custom kernels are better than the stock one in that (in simple words) they improve performance and power consumption (kinda like drivers for computer parts).
I think the following would work for 2.3.3 roms, do a nandroid backup and try it, if it doesn't work just restore

I get better battery life on Eaglesblood 2.3.7 and Trinity ELP kernel (overclocked to 1.1GHz, normal is 1.0) than a stock based rom, like Weapon, will ever get. And on T15 kernel at 1.56 I can still get pretty damn good battery.

Cant seem to find the t15 kernel, not in the kernel list.
I run overclocked to 1.6 with a pretty aggressive undervolt. With the right profiles in setcpu I get better than stock battery and very very good performance.

Go to http://www.derkernel.com/ and look under current G2x kernels for 2.3.5 builds. There's ELPmax, T15max, and TD158. Don't flash any of these kernels if you're on a 2.3.3 rom though. Good luck

That is impressive but i would defiantly not recommend doing that if you are just starting... That can cause extreme instability...
If you want to undervolt start small and work your way up in increments making sure to not have the settings to "Apply on boot" that way if you get a crash (And you will until you find the sweet spot) you wont be stuck with your phone crashing over and over because the cpu/kernel is freaking out
And SetCPU is a great program for OC/UV for any rom
question i cant seem to quickly find about undervolting:
when undervolting in pimpmycpu (SetCPU crashes on me when I go to voltage settings for whatever reason) do you undervolt each setting? Like -50mv for 1.4GHz, -50mv for 1.2Ghz, -50mv for 1Ghz etc etc etc.. or just -50mv for the top (1.4Ghz) setting?
Oh, I'm on Faux's 048 kernel..

You only undervolt the clock speed you're using, you can do it for both min and max values, or just for one. But if you use multiple OC profiles, then you can UV every clock speed you're using.
Either way, UVing all clock speeds shouldn't cause any issues, but it wouldn't help much
Been flashing Custom Roms & Kernels insanely these few days trying to get the most perfect Custom Rom and Kernel. I have decided to use ViperS 1.1.0 as my main Custom Rom, I'm now deciding which Kernel best go with it and that's it, I can finally starting doing my stuff on my phone instead of searching for Roms and Kernels everyday to flash. Lol, after rooting my phone, I haven't like used it yet at all, all I did was looking for Custom Roms and Kernels to flash to find which best for me.....
Well anyway, can a ViperS 1.1.0 user please tell me which Kernel is good? I'm looking for a Kernel that has good battery life and a bit good performance. I have tried many Kernels but can't notice the difference between them.
Also how would I change the Kernel's settings? Like if I want to change the Governor, how would I change it?
Thanks in advanced! I'm kinda new to Kernels.

Yeah, I've seen many people say that Sebastian's kernel is best for ViperS 1.1.0. But when I download Sebastian's kernel and install it, it doesn't have an installer for me to choose options from? It just installs it and that's it, how would I like change the settings for it?
You can use a mod that goes with the Sebastian kernel, this is what I did. Its supposed to help battery life. Check out the mods and you will find it. Best wishes.

As some people already said, Sebastian`s kernel is very good. His kernel + as much Undervoltage as is stable for your phone should make a good performance with good battery life I`m plaaying Dead Trigger with Tegra effects enabled, and no lags with -75mV, but you need to find out what UV level is good and stable for you
and BTW guys, what mods are you talking about? I looked at his thread and didn`t find any mods. Do you mean that OC and ZRAM or there are any other mods?

For kernel settings such as govs and uv, you can use an app such as system tuner. It allows you to change a multitude of kernel settings, including clock speed.
sebastian fm is good kernel... +1
I am talking about all from my signature
Sebastians kernel doesnt offer any options to choose as I know.
The same with MOD Take Control - but you may change some things by System Tuner app.
There is a link to a MOD for seb's kernel in the viper thread, posted not so long ago. It allows you to change a whole bunch of stuff for his kernel such as uv and even second phase frequencies. It's a seperate zip you flash after flashing the kernel itself.

ROM: WanamLITE v1.5
Kernel: Perseus ALPHA v3.4
A clean ROM with samsung features still apparent. Kernel has overclock and sound tweaks available. Battery life is slightly enhanced due to lack of bloatware.
** Note ** Camera firmware fix will need to be flashed..
