Hi,
so I've recently entered in the world of roms for OP6 and I've tried few of them, and there are some which I like for their appearance, some for performance and some for the battery, but here's the scenario:
there is rom A which I like for its appearance and then there's rom B which I like for its stability and the battery longevity
So as far as I understand and please help me if I'm wrong here, the kernel is supposed to handle this right? how the battery performs and stuff?
Coming back to the question, considering the roms are for the same model and based on the same android version (please add if any thing else is to be considered), can I use the kernel of rom B on rom A? and also considering that the rom B's description page has provided the GitHub link for their kernel.
This is what I've understood and think will help me achieve what I want which is rom B's battery longevity in rom A, is there any other way to achieve this or anything else on this?
I've presented a general scenario but the roms on which I want to try this is Syberia rom with havoc/awaken kernel.
Thanks.

Hello, I'm new to kernels and know not much about them except you can flash them like roms but, exactly where can I find a place with the most reliable kernels and if so, which one would be the best in terms of giving me the greatest/fastest performance? & also another different kernel that offers great performance as well as great battery life? (Running CM 10.1 stable on GS3, T-999)

Actually no one can give you an apt answer rather than yourself for which is the best. You may have to try yourself to know which is the best kernel, just like your try ROMs. Go to your device forum, pick up the most active kernel threads, read comments and feedbacks from members in the thread and you can try after getting an initial idea about the same.

kernel- http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=ROM-VS-Kernel#The_kernel
Hi all,
I know this question was asked a lot of times but I was away from this community for a lot of time so I need some info.
I'm using Back-to-Note v13.1 and Arter kernel last version.
I'd like to update my device but I'm not sure what rom+kernel combo to flash.
I need stability and a really good battery life, extreme performance is not my main goal since normal one is enough.
Thanks a lot!
Stock ROM.... when do you people finally understand. If you need root, just change the kernel and stay on stock ROM. The stock ROM is the fastest and smoothest with highest battery life.
I can understand and accept your point of view but a well developed Custom ROM is way better than Stock ROM.
Right now, the only stock one I'm interested to is the official MM release!
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.
Hi everybody.
I have testing some LineageOS based ROMs lately in my P5110 and P3110 and found no overclock option so far ?
Considering the low hardware profile in our tabs and the actual real overlclock, better user experience and battery tunning / real gain we get with some CyanogenMods 6.0.1, I see no point using, until now, the new LineageOS based ROMs!?
So I ask: Is there any known LineageOS ROM or compatible kernel with overclock potential that allows to improve the user experience as the "old" CM 6.0.1 does ?
Thanks

no
No luck here as well mate, I've been forced to stick with CM13 since OC and themes are a must for me
Best user experience, for me, is with CM 6.0.1 from "[ROM][P31xx][P51xx][MM][6.0.1][Linaro][SaberMod] CyanogenMod 13" (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2686613) and "[ KERNEL - AOSP] Dhollmen Espresso" from (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2176563&page=138).
Can run everything I need with good speed and make tweaks to allow battery savings even possible!
Hello everybody.
I have read previous answers, thanks.
Considering the time since the original question, I would ask again:
1- if there is no option so far to add an overclocked kernel to our tabs ?
2- I am not a developer, but maybe I could get the info needed to build my own overclocked kernel and share it with the forum, where to start from ? I think these would really be faster for those already with the proper skills to do it! I mean: do you developers really use your tabs without overclock nowadays ?
Thanks again.

1-There is still no overclock available.
2-I am not a developer (yet) but I think the tab is fast enough as it is (running Slim7 if you want to know) and I don't think overclock is necessary. The place to start for building a kernel is google. I think I saw a guide in the past.
Also, keep in mind that devs make things because they want to and get no reward for that. So don't ask or press them to make anything. If you create your own kernel it will be greatly appreciated, but I think you wouldn't like people constantly asking you for something (and yes, overclock has been asked for a lot of times in the past).
Hi, I been trying out different custom roms but now I wanna try with kernels.
What should I look for about kernels to get idea of what kind of feature they have? I heard some have battery/charging features, etc.
I've tried some that listed on this forum zero gravity,mochi (from stock roms), etherious and neutrino flamescion.
i also tried benchmarking with each kernel, i see scores 5-8%. Aside from that, I cannot notice anything different.
I not looking for a gaming kernel. Just want to get idea about these for so I can start somewhere.
if you want a general idea about kernels just google it but if u want to make a kernel your self this post may help u https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/reference-how-to-compile-an-android-kernel.3627297/
