I am currently using DlevROM and it seems to be working alright, but I am looking for additional input from you guys. I am mainly concerned about battery life and gaming performance, so any recommendations there?
Thanks!
I recommend you download the Infusion GB 1.1 kernel and flash using SGS Kernel Flasher. It dramatically boosts 2d/3d performance when benchmarking, and I haven't noticed any major changes in battery drain. It'll also let you overclock, but I haven't really done much with that. Running Dlev I set it to 1400 MHz and it runs smooth as butter, I get around 3200-3800 from quadrant, just over 4000 from antutu.
Agreed with the above. Roms are a matter of preference as there a lot of good roms. Kernal will help you more. I am using infusion core a2 and the roms are running great. I like fusion (for now) as they have many customizable items in the rom that are great. I just changed the theme (went with sepia) though as I did not care for the pink and purple. The rest runs great.

Im sort of confused which I should pick. Im currently using faux's 0.13 kernal for stock @1. 4 ghz. Which kernal is the best when it comes to battery life, performance and stability?

That's really unknown. This phone differs too much from one to another.

Okay, but what is your opinion?

If your phone doesn't have issues with it, Trinity ELP is best for battery.
If your phone SOD's, crashes, won't boot, etc... don't ***** to morfic, just try a different kernel. Any problems you have are typically due to a phone's incapability to use various settings, not the settings kernels themselves.
I just flashed trinity and when i booted into phoenixblood my phone freezes. I think I will be sticking with faux's kernal.
Sent from my G2X
I've tried them both, I just switched to Trinity I was running faux and the battery life was outstanding.. trinity seems to preform a smidge better I think? But unsure on battery life yet, but seems to be worse on the battery so far.

Will fauxs stock/gb kernel work on weapon 3.0 ?
The only reason I stay on faux and don't bother to try other kernels is because faux allows me to play plants vs zombies on any rom .
There was a post in the general section on a Trinity vs faux benchmarkings.
Trinity won over every test they had, but only by a little.
I believe performance wise, Trinity is better, though some prefer faux.
Your choice.

Well i said trinity earlier. My gf flashed phoenixbloods v6 yesterday with faux123 kernel and its noticibly faster.

i'm running oyasumi kernel (based on faux123, undervolted and overclocked) with tsugi, and i get amazing battery life. 2-3 hours of use with max brightness and the battery barely went down to 95%.
Trinity for performance & Faux for battery life.... But honestly in my experience, trinity isn't sacrificing much battery life but you gain much better performance. I prefer Trinity TD158 oc'd to 1500. Best performance with better than stock battery life... Just try em all out, thats half the fun of flashing!

I've played with all the various kernels, and I agree with tokentatortot..
At least for my phone:
CM7 stock is decent all around, and better than the stock kernels.
Trinity T15 for maximum overclocking and max performance ( Quadrant over 5000)
Faux123's 0.48 is faster than stock, better battery life than Trinity and also slower than trinity.
Currently using PhoenixBlood 1.6 (Faux v.48 stock clock ) + V6 super charger.
I guess I'm not heavy duty user, as v6 supercharger does not seem to make things majorly different..
oddly, on my phone, the faux123 0.48 SV seems to have better battery life than faux123 0.48 UV kernel... go figure.
Can anyone told me that what about the battery of miui v10??
Basically my display was on for 80% of the time of about 9 hours (just leaving it on the webpage and sometimes browsing the web) and had 18% battery from 100% battery. That's pretty good IMHO. Smoothass+deadline 300-1000mhz. I'm surprised smoothass allowed my battery to last

I remember that magical day in my life. when I was using jp_miui_v9 with battery lasted for 1day13hr and still 5-6% left. I did some tweaks in build.prop (ro.ril.power.collapse = 0) like this line. I changed its value from 1 to 0. Cause I read that in some recent thread about build.prop tweaks in our phone forum.
Next day gm released last version of miui and I flashed it, but right now my battery lasts almost 10-12 hours. I havent checked build.prop yet.
And ah yes., I was on 1.0ghz max , 300 mhz min and onDemand governer with noop i/o schedular.
Miui already includes power colapse in the build.prop to increase the battery life.
ro.ril.power.collapse = 0
No necessary modify them.

what's a good scheduler/governor for MIUI v10? for battery saving purposes of course.

Thanks i use data mostly in this phone and i guess it really drains battery life very fast. I hope i get a bit more batt life like 2-4 hrs more using that setting thanks again
EDIT: I have no bfq option in vurrut kernel#1. I only have cfq, sio and noop. Which one should i choose?

Hey guys
I just installed Codename Android 1.5.5 + Matr1x Kernel 18.0 after using CM9 nightly 0304 + Matr1x Kernel 17.5 for a while. I used to run CNA 1.4 but stopped using that as it got very slow after a few hours.
The Quadrant score I was getting on CM9+Matr1x 17.5 was around 2000 with no overclock. Now that I am running CNA 1.5.5 + Matr1x 18.0 i'm only getting a score around 1100...
The ROM feels fine and snappy, but this low score worries me. Is this normal or does this maybe mean there's a problem somewhere?
Thanks!
I'm on same rom same kernel and overclocked to 1430 and only getting 1400s
Ok, so I guess this is normal...
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA
I am running 1.5.5, with Air Kernel 3.6, scary governor and overclocked to 1400, I scored around 2600 with this set up on Quadrant.
I tested the rom after flashing it and it scored it at 1100.
Oh I applied the BM tweaks from CNA utility as well
I am waiting to see how the ram holds up, 1.40 would drain after a few hours, as how the battery lasts, so far it is looking good on both of those items.
I haven't tried to many roms, I liked this one as son as I loaded it, loads all my apps from the market, seems very stable even with it overclocked.
I have read that Gingerbread is really stable and fast but I don't want to loose my native music.flac support on this rom. I have read that 4.04 and 4.05 will have better battery, I am hoping so, as I don't want to go backward to Gingerbread unless I have to.
I applied brain masters tweaks and went from around 1100 to 1800 with no overclock and the rom feels much better now. Now I'll just have to see about battery life but I'm a happy man at the moment

Quadrant score isn't everything. User experience is a lot more important than benchmarks.

You are absolutely right. I use the benchmark simply to measure how the rom is before I get a good feel for it. In this case it feels much better after the tweaks.

FULL ACK...!
I'm still using 1.4.0 with Air Kernel 3.6 and the supercharger script. I have insanely good performance though battery life has taken a hit over the last few days.
I would like to install BM's tweaks though I'm not sure which version goes with this particular ROM.
If you want higher Quadrant scores try the Trinity T144 kernels. But Quadrant Standard says nothing about the performance of the ROM.. it's just a score.
Yeah, quadrant score isn't everything. The ROM feels fine now but I'm getting the occational freeze requiring a battery pull. I've been running with no overclock but at the moment am running 100/1300 Lulzactive with no issues so far.
Battery life is not good though. I'm at about 50% after 7 hours on battery with light usage
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.
You forgot that both are released in the Development section. A place where this thread does NOT belong...

A mod will move it in when they get a chance.
Just so you know in the future,
if your not a developer its always safe to open up new threads in the Q and A section. (At least that's my rule for myself.. it saves you from the "I'm having a bad day so I will take it out on this guy" post)

Now that this has been moved can we get back on topic? What is yalls experience with 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.

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.
