Hello, I have been doing some reading here as well I sit on IRC on the #skyrocket channel which is pretty quiet these days.
I am using TPC GB rom build with Da_G kernel, and so far (since november 2011) it has been solid.
I have tried alienROM for the ICS leak, but it is missing some kernel features I like, however is a decent ROM. I was wondering if there were any nice ROMs or Kernels for ICS yet, or are well all still waiting for samsung to release an official ICS build so proper kernels can be made. It has been quite awhile and are we even getting an official build for the I727R (Rogers)
I wanted to post here if that is OK because I have not been finding too many answers to what I am looking for. I am in no rush really, but wanted to start thinking about tweeking my phone. Would it be best to play with leaked builds or just wait till some official builds come out then wait and go from there. If anyone has suggestions that would be great.
Thank you for your time and comments.
Hi. All the roms you'll find here are decent and will each appeal to different people and their needs. I've found the latest SkyICS to be excellent in many ways. Try a few different ones to see what you like. Any will be better than stock GB.
As for kernels, there are a few out, but none will have all the features we like about a custom kernel until the official ICS is released because -as far as I know - the code for the kernel hasn't been released yet.
For example, we won't have overclocking until someone can tear into the official released kernel.
I am not a developer, so please, someone correct me if I'm wrong about this.

Without kernel source nothing can be done. No oc, no uv, no bln.

Thanks for the reply, I am on GB (not stock) running rom / kernel (4.3.5) just can't decide on what ICS I want to go with. So I will continue to read away

Doesn't the Cymbaline kernel have BLN now?

Yes. He posted that before the t989 source dropped. Cymbaline used fixes from that source. We also have instigatorx kernel for aosp based roms.

Hey guys,
Since im a heavy gamer ( Modern Combat 2/3/4,N.O.V.A 3,NFSMW and some other games ) i decided to take my phone back to stock KQM with root. I previously was on CM10 but the gaming behavior of it is just awful. I didnt managed to play a online round of MC3 to the end. It crashed, or lost Wifi connection every single time.
KQM is way better for gaming. Its almost fluid all the time, but i didnt managed to get it complete fluid. Sometimes there are lags for 10 - 15 seconds, and you know what that means for a FPS Gamer, its horror! And you want to throw your phone against the wall when youre in a 14 kill streak and it lags and you get killed one frag away from a nuke. AHHH. (Still better than CM10 where its around 12FPS all the time).
So im kindly asking someone to build a stock KQM Kernel with the ability for Overclock, and if its possible some shedulers. I think im not the only one who needs this and who would use it all the time.
I would do it myself, but i dont have the hardware for it, my CPU (my pc is from 2006) doesnt support x64 and i cant compile anything on it.
Thank you for your time. :good:
P.S: I know this is dev section, but cmon, who reads the I9000 General?? No one.
AW: [REQ] KQM Kernel with OC @ 1,8 Ghz
Why don't you use skyhigh?
You can't modify the kqm kernel itself. You can only use the provided sources by Samsung.

Hey XellaR*! Samsung just released the source for 2.3.3,
the Kernel from the first stock rom.
We don't have the source for the "new" 2.3.6 Kernel, that's why we cannot update...
greets,
EDIT: Do you know why the Q&A thread isn't sticky anymore?
Hi all,
I will try it but i can't give guarantee

Thank you guys! I didnt knew lamesung didnt released the 2.3.6 Sources. Thats even more hilarious than the fact they didnt provide us with a4.0.

64bit OS is not mandatory. 32bit works as well as long as the toolchain supports it. I wouldn't use a VM on 32bit though.
Regarding the KQM kernel.. I would try to find the OC/UV constants on binary level and patch the kernel directly. One possible way would be to compile two minimalistic kernels with both values (stock <> oc) and compare them. If you get the constants apply them to the KQM binary.
On the other hand... the 3.0 kernel is ready. It should kick any 2.3 kernels ass. Probably not worth the hassle at all...
Edit: You could also try to load the kernel directly into decompilers/disassemblers to find the constants. Maybe that's easier...
Very strange. I experienced gaming problems with ICS but not with JB... Very fluent. I am using slimbean!

Great, so the rules, obviously do not apply to you.
Next time post in the correct sections or your threads & your ability to post in dev sections will be removed. XDA does not exist for you alone.
Thread Closed.
I just jumped ship from the galaxy nexus to the Verizon SIII and finally got it unlocked and rooted. So I worked my way over to the development section to pick out a rom and and kernel but was overwhelmed by the amount of choices. So I thought id ask the xda community's opinion on what rom and kernel I should choose?
My only requirements are:
1. Must be stock jellybean (not a huge fan of touch wiz)
2. Performance is a huge factor to me
3. Overclocking options (CPU, GPU, Memory?)
4. Customizable options
Thanks guys!!
AOKP jb-mr1 build 4, lean kernel experimental build 2. Best combo I've used.

Does Wifi Tether work well with Carbon and that kernel? I am running a nightly from CM 10.1, seems to be the only one that has wifi tether working well with 4.2.2
---------- Post added at 04:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:39 PM ----------
I really like Liquid Smooths new rom for 4.2.2. Tons of customization and overclocking. The RC1 came out on Feb 14th and the only issue I had was with Wifi Tether. Once that is fixed I will be using as a daily driver.
You'll probably want to use CM10.1. Has the most up to date fixes and considering this isn't a nexus device there are some issues out there, and the less you have the better. MROM seems like a good choice as well though I've never tried it. CarbonROM had some issue with changing the notification/battery light color (it was broken) but idk if that's been fixed yet.
Another heads-up on the performance side: though AOSP performs much better than TW, it scores significantly lower than TW in certain benchmarks. Do not be alarmed, Samsung is cheating those scores by optimizing databases for those apps.

My current daily driver is carbon ROM with ktoons kernel.

Eclipse Rom! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2136671
I use Paranoid Android 3.1 and lean kernel 2.7.3 which lets me over clock to 1.9ghz . The rom has lots of updates and features as well.
AOKP jb-mr1 build 5
-Overclocking
-Themes
If you plan to try multiple ROMs, I'd stay with either a 4.1.x base or 4.2.x base. If you toggle between 4.1 and 4.2 your folder structure is going to get messed up (ie sdcard/0/0/0/0/.....)
PA
I swap between PA3.1 from Notta and MIUI from Strumerjon
I gotta say, the PA builds from Notta have been solid for a while.
Everything that I've tried has worked.
RootBox
I can't believe nobody has mentioned RootBox! Tethering works out of the box you can theme almost everything and it's insanely fast and stable. Highly recommend it!
I'm trying to find a good, stable kernel for CyanogenMod 10.1 RC (RC2 at the moment). I've been out of the loop for a while and I don't really know where to start, so my apologies if this isn't the current place or format.
For me devil kernel works perfect. But i dont know if it is working with 4g ...

Try MMarmite 8.5CM, it seames to be the best when balancing battery life and performance, however I never overclock, and I read reports someware around here that for overclocking Devil kernel is better
I have built a P6800 JB custom kernel from MD3 source.
FOR P6800 GSM/3G device running JB MD3 ONLY
It has compiled without errors.
Kernel compression = Gzip
Added NTFS filesystem support
General optimze for size
Support for paging of anonymous memory (swap)
Pegagsus governor set as default (although didn't see any module compiled.....)
Removed powerSave & userSpace governors
Default IO scheduler = NOOP
As I don't have the device (only P6810), I can't actually test myself...........
If you wish to test, only first EXPERIENCED SENIOR member to volunteer (reply in this thread) to test and give proper feedback will receive the links by PM.
I have 4 files :
Odin (.tar) & CWM (.zip) flashable .tar for both stock and SkyHigh kernels.
There may be a RISK involved, but if you choose to accept, you assume all responsibilty.
If the kernel works/partially, I MAY continue further development by adding various features :
example only - OC/UV, frandom support, tweaks, governors, io schedulers, and other modules etc. Some method, I cannot test until my P6810 is upgraded
I will not release sources/changes as this kernel is not for public release ! Only, MAYBE if it actually works....(Plus I have to find out how to upload repo to github anyway )
Up to you guys to, otherswise this stalls here.
Cheers,
UITA
I think i can give it a go.
I'd be happy to test for you, the main interest for me would be UV the CPU/GPU and screen.
Probably doesnt help but this kernel (Hirox version) does the job amazingly, stops my phone from heating up in the slightest with no loss of performance and great battery life

Ok. Thanks, I'll send the links by PM in 1-2 hours. I am going out for a bit of family time.
Let's just hope it boots....

Pretty slow development due to not having device and also phone/net off for two days now. Have to go away for a few days too..... Thanks to edan1979;nutley for testing and feedback thus far.
Just impatiently waiting for the JB update for P6810, so I can download the source and mirror development for both kernels. Things would speed up then.

Real nice, as I said, "baby steps", otherwise it would too hard to know where I went wrong with too many additions at once.
Will work on it again late Wednesday night or Thursday, so expect beta_v0.8 then
