anyone know a good kernal to use for overclocking along with redemptive revolution rom?
Thanks
Does the leaked HTC kernal that Lou built into 1.8 not fit your needs?

is it overclockable?
Not yet. It's leaked, not official.
What do you gain by over clocking? This kernal charges faster and battery life is better. Others have posted results in the Redemptive thread.

nothing really, just impressive benchmarks. I just like pushing my phone past it's normal limits, even if i get no noticeable gain

I just got my droid incredible and I rooted it as soon as I got it. I've tried almost every rom in the "official rom" thread. I can't seem to figure out which one is the best for battery life. Right now I'm on myns 5.2. Any insight would help.

I was using miui au 1.1.7 and had great battery life. Miui isn't for everyone though. I just installed the latest cm7 gb build so well see

It really depends on the kernel that is flashed with the ROM as well, in general ROM's that are AOSP tend to have better battery life because all the Sense stuff that syncs constantly can drain your battery, but alot of devs have found ways around this by getting rid of the extra Sense junk.
But IMO switching kernels gives the biggest difference
Happy Flashing
it trully is in the kernal and somewhat dependant on the rom.. like dude said.. warm is a badass rom.. i think i'm still using warm rls4, forget which kernal.. but find a decent one and use a cpu tool to setup profiles to control your kernals speed and usage.. with the right settings you can squeez some juice out...
lou's senseless rom with his #4 kernel is awesome
Skyraider 3.5 for sense or I'm having great battery life with cm7 w/ stock launcher (doubt it makes a difference on battery life but might)

Like others have said, it's mostly about what kernel you are using. Some kernels reduce the amount of voltage the CPU uses to save battery as well as underclocking it when its not in use to save even more battery. I've used Skyraider 3.5 with Incredikernel and it has given me the best battery life, and I've used quite a few different kernels.
If you choose an AOSP ROM (like cyanogenmod) try invisiblek's kernel.
Best battery life to date is my current setup, Senseless Redemptive Revolution with Lou's #6. I can get 24-26 hours with normal usage not watching what I do. Recently, I reinstalled Juice Defender, and as I have always been a skeptic of it, if it is set up correctly, I am seeing a very noticeable increase in battery with no real side effects. FYI.
For Me, it was Cyanogen 6.1 stable and invisbilek's #28 for the kernel, but play around with it and see what works best for you, now that you are rooted, you can add any rom and kernel that you want and find out what works best for you, rembember, everyone's phone and usage are different, what works for me may not be best for you.
Thread closed.
Reason: The reason we close what's referred to as "Best ROM Threads" is because the vast majority of the type end up a nasty flame fest. The reasons should be obvious. It's really a matter of opinion, and then you get the fanboys of certain devs chiming in, and well, you get it. You did nothing wrong (besides posting in the wrong sub-forum). My advice is try a few and make that choice yourself. It's easy to find the most popular ATM, because they stay on page 1 of the dev sub. That doesn't necessarily make it the best, however. Give some a shot and see what's best for you. Good luck.

I am new to the inc, just switched from the X. I need to know how to overclock the Incredible. I had no problems with the X, it was just an app by a developer. overclocked it to 1.3 and it was stable. I downloaded SETCPU but don't see options to overclock, just to underclock it. Any help would be great. (and I did search it but didn't find anything specific) Also, will this kill the battery life even more? I'm running Incredibly reengineered, the newest version. Thanks!
I think your kernel has to allow it before setcpu will give you the option. Look for one of the overclocked kernels. And yes, it's usually harder on the battery.

What is a reliable kernal that allows overclocking?

try ziggy's. they are at ziggy471.com and are compatible with sense and aosp both, are LZMA compressed so have small footprint, give very high scores, and are very efficient in general. Keep in mind that the inc's typically oc only to 1.152 stable. Anything beyond that is rare.

Back on Warm RLS5 with the ziggy 12/19 I was getting 1.19 stable, but now I'm on Uber Sense and the ziggy 1/2/11 and i cap at 1.152, results may vary, as at 1.152 on the 1/2/11 quadrant is higher than 1.19 on the 12/19.
Battery life was EPIC on the 12/19 tho
ziggy's is a great kernel. dont oc over 1.19 will cause bootloops. Im on 1/15/11 and battery life is good and can run 1.19 stable.
now keep in mind i am the noobest of noobs in modifying phones. i have an Epic 4g and haven't even touched the surface on it's potential apparently from reading through this forum.
my question is (before i start doing anything else to my phone) what exactly does a custom kernel do for your phone?
also what exactly does a custom rom do for your phone?
I am currently running a rooted Epic 4g w/cwm and i am on the DK28 build.
what else does everyone reccomend for me to get the full experience from my phone? (in the way of a custom kernel and custom rom, since i am pretty affluent to most apps at the moment)
Well a custom rom is usually optimized for speed and responsivenes. All roms are different since devs usually put there own mods and thems in. Some are completely stock temed others are themed fully. Depends on what your tastes are. As for kernals they're usually overclocked and undervolted which means it'll be overclocked to 1.2 or 1.3 ghz and run at the same power level as 1ghz or less. Usually gives faster phone with beter response and overall speed. (Opens apps quicker) hope this gives a little insight. I'm personally running epic experience 2.0.07 and genocide kernal overclocked to 1.2 ghz.(not undervolted at 1.2 ghz only at 1ghz so battery suffers a bit). Waiting for next epic experience release.

that does help tremendously! i had most of it figured out but i wanted to be sure as to what they meant. i appreciate the help and i will be trying the rom and kernel you suggested!
No problem man.

hey guys. i'm trying to find the kernel review thread with no luck.
I switched roms (i'm on MetroPCS so using the latest MetroDroid rom) and Im finding the kernel slow. I use setcpu profiles and I notice a slight delay in response that wasn't there before.
I also benchmarked using Quadrant and setcpu set to performance at 1190/1190 and got 1083! much lower than any score i've had in the past.
what's the newest and greatest sense kernel for improved speed and performance? I have the seidio battery and always near a charger, so i'm looking for snappy performance over squeezing 15 minutes more out of the battery.
thanks!
P.S. this is a Sense-rom but 90% de-Sensed. I just prefer the look and feel of Sense after I modify my way over others.
Ziggy's (ziggy471.com) always run faster than Netarchy's for me, but you're going to have to try a few for yourself as every phone reacts differently to diff kernels.
Netarchy's Kernels & Ziggy's Kernels
nets out with his 4.3.4 and has hdmwin built in also has the kernel guide in there.

Ok so I'm currently running cm7 on my newly rooted HTC evo 4g. I was wondering if there are Roms that run as smoothly as cm7 and which roms have the most energy efficient os ?
Well most energy efficient would have to be myns warm 2.2.
World peace with no regard for human life.
i love cm7 and if you couple that with tiamat, you will get the best battery life. i can easily get 18-35 hrs easily. unfortunately, there is no kernel for gingerbread on sense yet. so looks like you would have to go with any froyo roms or any aosp roms, since they have plenty of custom kernels for you to choose from.
Mik roms. Froyo. G. Z.
Or warm 2.2.

thanks guys
I'm now running the new cm7.1 coupled with the tiamat kernel so my android is now up to 2.3.4 and I'm running the smartass CPU governer and its working amazingly. Very smooth and very efficient. Tommy I also tried your Rosie mod for unrooted phones before I got my replacement and dude that's a great idea for those who don't want to root for whatever their reason. Keep working on those bro. I need to take some programming classes and whatnot so I can learn to write my own mods. As well I've got a couple of ideas but i don't exactly know how to do it lol take care guys and thanks for the help
Decks is very energy efficient once you flash a custom kernel. Decks is cm7 just stripped down. I have my EVO running tiamat 4.0.5 overclocked to 1228 and underclocked to 128 while utilizing the performance governor. Smartass governor saves more power, but my extended battery can handle it. SV kernels are very good as well. SBC helps out a lot.
It is nice to be important, but it is more important to be nice.
