First off, this is not to take anything away from the incredible work put in by everyone. Its awesome that an online community can put so much effort in and share with people they've never met.
That said, have we gained much from this ICS? I was running XBSALL's GB ROM with the Prometheus kernel and it worked very well. 1400MHz, could occasionally free up 300MB RAM, scored 6500 on Antutu and had good battery life. Has this brought us anything more?
I asked this question before the port and was told that ICS will bring features like RAM management etc that will make our phones much better. We are still in the early stages of a ported ICS so we can't expect much yet but will this upgrade make a big difference to our phones?
I'm still quite a noob - GB was a massive improvement over Froyo, will we eventually see the same level of improvement with ICS?

Hehe but you cant compare a custom roms score with stock

No, of course. Well that's a big jump between stock ROMs and your gain was massive. Is there a potential then to hit 8000? That would be incredible.

Haha well mine was just over 5000 on stock GB and I managed to improve the score by 1400 but this guy jumped his score over 2500.
Regarding overclock, Prometheus did a really excellent job. On a stock ROM, mine was very unstable if over clocked to 1200 but was smooth at 1400 with his custom kernel.

Thanks for your stock GB vs stock ICS Rom figures. Good to have this kind of comparison.
Sent from my LG-SU870 using xda premium
ICS make a better use of RAM resources. This can be seen by exiting from games or browsers.
According to speed - maximum benchmarks should be the same on the same MHz. And the MHz depend on the voltage (and this is s.t. that you do not want to increase too much unless you want to charge it every 2h or have a NONmobile phone). And the voltage depend on the kernel. So... in this aspect - they are the same (probably 5% more points gained from different tweaks in the kernel but nobody can say for GB or ICS )
Ability to somewhat multitask by holding down the home button is quite nice.

biggest differnce? now you can use ics apps... NBA 2K13 yeeeeeeaaaaa
OK, having played around with this, it is a much more efficient firmware. RAM management is better, giving faster performance.

WOW 1400mhz,, never been stable for me 1356 was best imo. i used a few ROMS from here,, i liked cm7 but i didnt like the fact had no 3D , so after trial and error i ended staying with thaiz ROM
after a few headaches and watery eyes ive managed to install ICS big thx xbsalls :good:
on stock rom and kernel , scored 33xx(variable) on quadrant which is pretty impressive me thinks
i love the new rom, and all its features its bit like cm but with 3d lol
going to try and root and install custom rom next

TBH i had to use Titan kernel for most non CM roms in order to get signal, maybe it was my baseband, im still on a massive learning curve lol
The fastet Rom i personally tested for GB was JOY OS , boy that was lightening quick , 4000 - 4200 plus on quadrant

If you notice, just about everyone gave you a different answer. There is no best rom. generally speaking, batt life is determined by clock speed and usage. plus each rom is a little unique. Just try out different roms and see what you think.

Yup... this is how I test ROMs. If they make it past 250 hours, then they are worthy. To this day, I have only had one ROM do this, and that was on my G1. It was the TMUS rom by amazinglarry311. Di11s ROM so far is going to be the second, by the looks of it.
I run Cache Cleaner NG once every other day, tho it's really not needed that often.
Still have over 211mb free when using Advanced Task Killer, and no lags.
Battery life is from about 8:30am til just after midnight. In this time frame, the lowest I've gone is 22%. Average of 225 texts a day, maybe 3 phone calls, music ALL day at work (not streaming), and check FB every 2 hours or so. Along with the occasional email here and there.
I can't imagine sending 225 text messages in one day.

joedeveloper said:
Quadrant Advanced provides the breakdown for each individual area (multi-colored).
http://slideme.org/application/quadrant-advanced
The thing about quadrant however, is it's not optimized or suited for the processor in our phones (Hummingbird). It was designed for snapdragon processors.
Additionally, Quadrant is sub par in my opinion on benchmark test apps (even though it's well known) because it does operations that aren't typical. If you get advanced you'll see that it does like 60% all IO operations, however thats a really strange test because it would be like you running a full on database on your phone.
So the scenarios and tests it runs are not representative of the scenarios you are going to use your phone to perform.
I like SmartBench better because it gives you an index for Gaming and Productivity.
Samsung Galaxy S 4G's will slightly outperform the snapdragon/adreno combo that you see in the MT4G etc. Very slight advantage. In regard to productivity it does well too.

U won't notice anything earth shattering from an extra 200 MHz. However for games and flash and videos it does help. Also improves app loading times and things like that so even though it doesn't seem to do much it does help alot when the phone is pushed to the 1ghz area

Hey guys I just wanted to start a thread where people can post their setup including rom kernel modem or anything else that seems fit. This does not mean that any are the best but it may give other people cool ideas on how to make theirs better.
Here's mine and its nothing special.
I have cm7 with a kernal that allows me to overclock it to 1.7 (its a beta and is version 12 or something) then I use voltage control to overclock to 1.2 and undervolt. I also just use the stock modem. Some cool apps I use are widgetlocker which allows Widgets on your lock screen and circle launcher.

IMO updated his TouchWiz kernel yesterday. Up until today I was using Scott's CleanKernel. Both are amazing kernels in my eyes. Both kernels are undervolted and overclocked. I had no issues with CleanKernel at all. I always seems to have bad battery life on the leanKernel until I flashed the updated .4 version this morning. Battery life seems much better compared to any leanKernel before the update. When running CleanKernel, I got a quadrant score of 4980. With leanKernel 0.4 I got 5160, both at stock 1.5GHz. I just want to see if others have noticed what I have between these two kernels.

Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
personally i like leankernal because of how light and simple it is. no unneccesary weight and battery life is great.
Clean kernel is closer to stock than imos kernel which is kinda good and bad. The more you modify the kernel the more chance you'll have of breaking something but you also have the posabilty of making it way better if done right and everything comes out ok.
I would expect clean kernel to be more stable, less battery efficient, and a little slower overall. Where imos kernel could vary drastically with each update due to more major things being edited or changed. Right now imos beta. 4 has pretty good battery life over stock and is stable.
Personally I try the more modified stuff first and if I don't feel it pays off I move to something more stable or closer to stock until an update is released or problem addressed. Just my. 02

Clean Kernel is under volt by default for a given frequency. That is why the battery life is better. If you are looking for both performance and battery life, you should over clock Clean Kernel frequency to 1.89 (default is 1.5) max and min should be 400 range. GPU in Clean Kernel is also over clocked. "stable" is the key word to differentiate between the two. I would think that Clean Kernel is the most stable kernel of all. For speed they should be the same, for bells and whistles, Lean kernel would be your choice. To sum up, Clean Kernel give you both world, stable, performance and battery life... unless you want something else beside those 3.

I agree with you on the kernel changing concept. And I have also noticed that .4 is much better than .3

Clean Kernel is under volt by default for a given frequency. That is why the battery life is better. If you are looking for both performance and battery life, you should over clock Clean Kernel frequency to 1.89 (default is 1.5) max and min should be 400 range. GPU in Clean Kernel is also over clocked. "stable" is the key word to differentiate between the two. I would think that Clean Kernel is the most stable kernel of all. For speed they should be the same, for bells and whistles, Lean kernel would be your choice. To sum up, Clean Kernel give you both world, stable, performance and battery life... unless you want something else beside those 3.

So you're a cleankernel guy? I definitely agree with you about this being all three things. So as far as the GPU being overclocked, why does lean kernel .4 perform better in games

Like I have mentioned, if you aiming for gaming performance then you better to use lean, but then your battery life wouldn't be too good. Most of people just want a fast stable phone and a good battery life for daily use, then Clean will be a better choice. The reason it's stable because no tweaks to it except for OC/UV. Have you tried to play game with Clean over clocked to 1.89?

Actually I never thought of overclocking and playing the game until now. I guess Im just used to being at stock. But I will give it a try and see how that works. But what your saying definitely makes sense and should clear some things up. Performace + battery life = cleankernel. PERFORMANCE + PERFORMANCE = leankernel. Although the battery life on leankernel has dramatically been improved.

Haha.. you got it...almost.. Performance+battery life+stable=Clean. Super perfornance -less battery life - 10% stable=Lean kernel. Good luck bro.
ok I just setup an app profile in setcpu. so now everytime im in my game, its overclocked. When im using it normally, its at stock speed. With the screen off, its at min 190 and max 452. so far so good!
.5 is up now with more fixes.

Thanks for the heads up! More battery drain fixes. Although it says in order to revert back to stock we have to flash a ROM with a kernel. Would a nan backup work? Anyone tests the kernel yet
