[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

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.

I forgot about that. Does the re-wording work?

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.

[Q]Stock ROM with franco or CM11?

So I recently found out that franco kernel is no longer compatible with cyanogenmod 11. I would like to know which is more battery efficient. Having franco kernel with stock rom or cyanogenmod with the kernel that is shipped with it? Does anyone have experience in this?

battery is all about how you personally use your device, how you set it up, what apps you use, and mostly the quality of your phone/data signal. using either cm kernel or franco kernel can give you great battery life or terrible battery life. any kernel will give you great battery life or terrible battery life.

Both are good and have their (dis)advantages. No one can tell you whats best cause different users have different preferences and needs. Best is to try them out yourself and see what you like best.

I am aware of that. I admit that I am quite the power user which mostly results in a pretty bad battery life. I just wanted to know which option has the better potential with the same amount of usage. I guess I'll experiment with it myself then

im one of the heaviest users you will meet, yet i still see a minimum of 5h+ screen on time every day. set up your device right, and if you have a great signal you will have very hood battery life no matter what you use.

Combine rooted stock, Franco kernel and the Xposed framework plus it's various modules and you will get most of the Custom ROM features along with better battery life and stability. I'm very pleased with that combo.

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.

"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

Which kernel

Hi,
Should I root my nexus 5?
I still have a year warranty so...
Which kernel should I flash then : Franco Kernel, or Code Blue Kernel?
I am running lollipop 5.0.1 stock right now. Screen on 1/4 brightness, no location and WiFi turned off when I don't use it. Know I am getting around 12h battery life with 2-3h screen on time, would one of the kernels help with battery life? And how much? Will it be worth to void my guarantee for it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi!
Thanks for taking your time and your explanation mate, you really helped me out! Think I am gonna see for Franco kernel, cause there are more users and more tweaking options to fit my wills.
Thanks again!
