[Q] What's the best battery saver kernel for Sensation?

I'm using ARHD 6.8.0 and sebastianFM kernel. I set gpu frequency of 2d and 3d to lowest which is 200, but still when I play games it still drains as fast as when the 2d and 3d is set higher. I also set minimum cpu frequency to 192 and maximum to less than 1000 ghz but it still drains battery fast. By the way, I'm using Kernel Tuner App to tweak the kernel.
Is there a kernel with fastcharge enabled for sensation?
I want the kernel that's best both for gaming and browsing internet-wise.
Help me guys thanks.

Hi,
If you play games,you will use more battery,no ,matter what kernel you use.
Play games=more cpu=more battery.
FAUX KERNEL has fast charge capability.
SULTAN too

Oh I see. So I've read about Sultan. But what kernel of sultan to install? It's confusing there's Sultan Linaro, Sultan AOSP, Sultan Aroma etc.. What's the proper Sultan Kernel that I should use?? I'm on ARHD 6.8.0. Thanks

Hi,
I gave you the link for the "Sense" version of the kernel.

Oh Sorry haha. Because you helped me, I clicked the thanks button. So thanks

Btw, what's AROMA? should I download the one with AROMA or the one who don't have AROMA?

Hi,
Use the one "With" Aroma.
It just helps you with the installation.

Thanks a lot for the help

Make a full Nandroid backup first before you flash the Sultan kernel.
That way if you do something wrong in the installation and pick the wrong options in Aroma it's super easy to just revert and start over. (Though I think Sultan offers a "reset" option as well.) But still...you're doing something you'r enot familiar with so make a backup first.

The Powerful Kernel Reset included in my kernel's Aroma installer will erase init.d scripts left behind my many kernels (including my kernel) and it will then proceed to purely install my kernel with no init.d script included.

[Q] Can't see desired governors with Franco Kernel

Hello!
I just flashed Franco Kernel on my Nexus 5 with stock ROM, but I can only see Interactive and Performance governor when using SetCPU. Does anyone know why? Does this kernel even have support for this governors? If that is the case, please recommend another (stable) kernel. Thanks!

Hi,
Yes, Franco kernel uses only Interactive and Performance governors. It's "hardcoded" in the kernel so you can't add other governors unless you recompile it with your own stuff (in short). It's a choice made by Franciscofranco, that's all. So it's normal that some apps didn't show another governor.
I won't recommend you another kernel, check the two dev forums for another kernels, read the OP's of each kernel thread and try by yourself to find another kernel that suits your needs in term of governors (in short all the other kernels -no CAF or CM kernels-, not the ones based on Franko kernel obviously).
Since you used Franco kernel you are using an AOSP/stock rom so check from AOSP kernels.

Franco kernel only includes the Interactive and Performance governors. There is nothing wrong.
If you are not happy, try another one. Theres no point of someone recommending you a kernel since all phones are different and will thus react differently to kernels. In addition, while one kernel may be good for someone else, it may not serve your needs. This is why asking for the best rom/kernel is against the rules.

I'm running Franco Kernel on the interactive governor and have no issue

Okay, I understand. Thanks anyways!

[Q]Should I flash a kernel?

How is it going bro's and my name is Pewdiepie
Ok I am Using Cyanogenmod latest nightly I think on my Tab 2 gt - p3100 .
I want to ask should any kernel
I mean many are saying it will fix the battery drain:laugh:
But is it recommended for advanced users or only Developers
And which kernel you think is the best for battery and compatible with CM11
Please help me:highfive:
Peace and please don't hate

No you didn't have to.
I think,stock cm kernel 3.0.31 pretty much has good battery life.
Upstream kernel changes to 3.0.101 did causes battery drain and tried to resolve by devs.
However 3.0.101 have bigger free ram next 818mb, dhollmen 820mb, however agni kernel has same with stock cm kernel.
All those custom kernel offers some features which stock kernel didn't have.
Slightly different with android-andi kernel which purpose to find kernel battery drain for 3.0.101.

Best kernel to use with Stock 12S?

Stock kernel is very bad on battery & the phone is over heating a lot.

Franco
AK
Boeffla
Any of the above
I suggest Franco

There's no such thing as the best kernel. The best kernel is the one that you decide suits you and your setup after testing them yourself.

[Poll] What ROM are you using on your Moto G 2015 (osprey)?

If you're using your osprey as your daily driver, which ROM are you using? Why do you prefer using it? How's the battery life?

Moto G3 xt1548

Rooted with SuperSU v2.82 (systemless)
BusyBox v1.26.2 Stericson su/xbin/ (BusyBox Pro)
TWRP (Squid's) v3.1.1-r1
AGNi pureMoto Kernel v3.2

Fiops I/O Scheduler (Internal Storage 512)
Noop I/O Scheduler (External Storage 1024)
Adreno Idler
MSM Performance Hotplug
Very Agressive Low Memory Killer
I choose this ROM and configuration because it provides optimal RAM consumption, with an average of 350Mb free RAM with 29 applications installed. Also, I get an average battery life of 16 hours with moderate to heavy use and up to 14 days on standby. I have yet to find a custom ROM (and I'm in no way being negative with regard to the great custom ROMs for the Osprey) that can match the results I get from stock 6.0.1.

Battery life sounds really great! Why not vote in the poll?

You should use any AOSP-CAF based rom (Tesla Rom recommended) with squid or fire kernel if you want that type of battery backup.
I managed to get 6:30 hr of SOT with 1 day battery backup while WiFi is always on. (I had SS but deleted while flashing other ROM)
Though now i am using AOSPExtended Rom since Tesla Rom is stopped for our device.

Nice results. I love the custom kernels by both @FireLord and @squid2. I've had great results from those kernels as well. I'll try your recommendations and couple one of those kernels with the Tesla ROM. (I'm a long time fan of Tesla Coil Apps, e.g. Nova Launcher.) Thanks for the tip.

Maybe a link to each ROM would be helpful in the poll would be helpful.

I just installed the 0517 build of Tesla yesterday. Too soon to tell about battery life but I like what I see so far. It was #1 in a list I saw recently of Moto G3 ROMs.

I've been a long-time user of Tesla and Validus ROMs on my Moto E (2nd Gen) LTE. I agree these ROMs do give optimal performance, they are lightweight and streamlined, & provide the user with a plethora of customization options. I also love the GZR based Kernel Adiutor app....

I have tried most of the available roms and my favorite up until recently was PureNexus. Now I am using ASOP CAF and I am loving it.

Hi there guys. I'm testing RR on my phone and I was wondering which kernel should I mix with this room? Any recommendation?

I'm using Dirty Unicorns now.
I have used AOSiP-rom, AOSPExtended, Tesla. I can't say one is better than the other. You can customize them well.
They are all stable and smooth. It is just a feeling what you like most.
I like aosp-roms most .
We are glad to have a lot of devs who maintain their rom.

I will give them a look. Thanks

I've been using the most recent Tesla ROM for the xt1548 now for three days, along with @squid2's r19 kernel with personalized settings. I must admit that I get premium battery life and RAM optimization, to around the same extent as my stock setup listed previously.
Thanks @xMotoDA and @androidbaba for the tips.

AOSP CAF Osprey
using this rom for about 20 days.......believe me it is smooth than all other roms as it is based on caf........also i gives an awesome battery backup with alucard hotplug,gov interactive pro ,arch power on..............in the recent update it has become more battery friendly as it is based on stock motorola mm kernel........try it.......u will love it

I'm going to give it a try. What CPU Governor and I/O scheduler do you use? Ok sorry. Interactive Pro. I just now saw that.

If you are going to use ASOP CAF rom don't change any kernel settings for the latest version. See the thread for discussion.
