I am encountering the following problem on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 8.0 GT-N5100 tablet: After having flashed TWRP and later Lineage OS 14.1 the battery is charging extremely slow (sometimes even a whole night isn't enough). I read somewhere that getting a new kernel (eg. Redpill) solves the problem. However there is no Redpill available for the GT-N5100 and furthermore I have no idea on how to do it myself. Hence two questions:
1. Would a new kernel solve the charging problem? If yes, would this one do? https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2769635
2. Are there any good guides on how to flash a kernel? I am a beginner and pretty inexperienced, so any good guide will be appreciated...
If I am going the wrong way looking for a new kernel, please give some hints on what to do to get the battery charge normally again.

I recently flashed Liquidsmooth v4.0 2015-03-17 android version 5.0.2 on my Samsung Galaxy S5 G900F. The first few days it worked great, I loved the ROM and the performance. But recently when I've been using it, it's rebooting every other minute, sometimes I don't even have time to write in my PIN-Code. This is obviously a huge problem and renders my phone pretty much useless, so unless you guys can help me I'm gonna have to change back to a stock ROM. I don't know if what I have is enough information, but I will answer questions as good as I can.
Thanks in advance!

Hey!
Head on to this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/stock-rom-root-recovery-sm-g900f-t2967725) and follow all the instructions mentioned there to get back to stock rom.
Cheers.
currently on stock OS. Just rooted with Kingroot and installed and flashed CWM but its an older version , so i will try to update to latest cam or tarp which i had issues flashing before. Main question is what are good methods or apps to help boost charge or maintain a good healthy battery life. also note i am using a s3 battery for my s4 i know its not smart but only option i have as of now. any tips? also need help looking for a good stable rom that can access more tech features. beacom. monitor etc

Hi,
Answer to all your question is : Flashing Custom rom and custom kernel . you can modify kernel parameters to help maintain battery life + you can also play with charing current. but be aware . if you are not sure about what you are doing then pls dont go ahead without backing up your current system
Hi,
I know that this is going to be a very subjective question, but can anyone suggest a super slick Rom for my Motorola 4G LTE?
I tried CyanogenMod but did not fair to well with it - some lag and increased battery usage.
I really need something super lightweight and prefer function over nice looks.
It seems that three of the best contenders for this phone are Carbon, Paranoid Android and SlimKat - can anyone perhaps point me the direction of which one to use (or indeed suggest anything even better)?
Thanks very much.

roms which you suggested above their, development has been stopped mostly or has been inactive for 9-10 months. You may try Resurrection Remix rom .

If you find there is lag or battery drain flash hurtsky kernel

CM 12.1 is very slim, if you just use the smallest package for gapps.
greetings
Thank you both for that - I might have to try both suggestions and see which works best for me. (I am currently using CM 13, which might be the reason I am having problems).
It is very interesting that abhi0502 has mentioned flashing the Kernel - this is something I was not even aware of until now.
How does flashing a Kernel and flashing the ROM tie in with each other? I always thought that a new ROM would automatically provide its own version of the kernel.

yes it has own kernel but if battery and performance is not good as expected you can flash kernel (that is the reason i have rooted the phone.) You can flash kernel with cm13 currently and see if performance improves. But its always recommend for clean flash (Rom+kernel+gapps) to avoid errors
Just wanted to pop back on here and say thanks for the advice above.
I did try flashing the kernel as suggested but it kept causing my phone to randomly reboot - although it did not work well for me on this particular occasion, I shall definitely start experimenting with other kernel's in the future.
As suggested I wiped and reinstalled Resurrection Remix with the smallest version of gapps and not only is my phone massively more responsive, but the battery improvements are really noticeable.
Thanks again.
Hey everyone, I need some help/advice with my device. Here are my questions,
Q1) I'm currently running Cm13 CM13.0-20160520-NIGHTLY-d2att. I'm having a few little battery issues. Sometimes my battery is draining faster than it is being charged on the "Efficient" power mode. Any help with this would be awesome
Q2) I'm also having a few little performance issues. If there was anything (App, flashable mod, etc) that you would recommend that would be a big help.
Q3) Is there any Overclock kernel for Cm13 yet? Specific to my phone.
Hi xda community, just got my OP6 and installed OB2 pie on it; it has been great so far, been getting 5-6hours of SOT and lots of standby time on it, but just wondering if i could squeeze a little more out of it. Now im planning to unlock and install custom kernels on it. I've read the tutorials and scanned different kernels.
Its not my first time on unlocking and flashing stuff, I've been doing this since i had the sony p1, but it's been a while (Galaxy s7 days..) since I've done this, and need a refresher. so i was just wondering with the help from you guys.
1) is 5-6hours SOT normal for OP6 running on OB2pie on stock kernel? i know SOT is subjective, but I've seen other going for more than that, or have i just been spoiled from my previous device which had 4000mah batt.
2)What kernel would you suggest in terms of battery life and stability? (Doesn't need to be boosted or overclocked, leaning on flash kernel and franken kernel)
3) if i flash a custom kernel now and oneplus releases the public release of OOS pie. Will updating reflash my kernel back to stock? Do i need to reflash a custom kernel again?
Hoping to hear from you guys and thanks a lot!

When you unlock bootloader, it will wipe phone. Second, I use and i am very happy with flash kernel. For me as a lite user on op6 on beta pie 2 with flash kernel, I get some were between 3 to 5 days on a single charge with sot of 6 to 8 hrs. Too me, this is good battery life. when updating, it will put stock kernel back every time.

Thanks man, is it stable so far? Any serious bugs as like I've read in the thread?
