2.2 Kernels for Samsung Epic? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Are there any 2.2 Kernels for Samsung Epic? I am running the Bonsai 4ALL ROM and love the ROM but hate the battery life.
Is there a 2.2 Kernel with Awesome Battery life?
Thanks

we have no source code, hence no modified kernels.. sorry, sucks, I know

Viper rom is under volted which seems to improve battery life.

Now we do though, and I am trying to make my own (coming soon, hopefully).

Genocide 1.2Ghz is based on EB13
Rodderik, one of the Team Viper members, has already released Genocide 1.2GhzOC Kernel based on EB13:

The kernel has been updated 3x and is currently at .3a. It is backwardly compatible with DK28 and can be flash over it using Clockwork.

Newest HTC Kernel

I have been looking all over but I can't seem to find the latest HTC Kernel and would prefer to use it. So if anyone could either find it for me so I can flash it, it would be appreciated.
+1, I've been hearing good things about battery life with this. I'm very interested.
just use fresh 3.2 or pick the kernel out that rom and flash it via fastboot.
Id recommend just using a ROM that has been updated within the last few days. Most have the updated kernel. Btw wouldn't stock kernel be worse on battery than modified kernel, I'm pretty sure.
Baked snack kernel #6 is updated with latest kernel and battery life is great.

So far only Fresh 3.2nd and the leaked ota have the new Kernel. It's better on battery life than the custom ones. Problem is you'll be at 30 fps and HTC won't release the source until the rom is actually released to the public.

Where did you see baked snack #6 is using the newest OTA stock kernel as a source? The change log in his thread makes no specific mention of that.
I believe fresh started a thread with the new version of 2.2 stock with the new kernel.

Best kernel for lou's Senseless

Hi, Currently running Sense(less) rEVOlution 2.0 with Kernel #4, is there a better kernel for better battery life? I like this combo very much but I think the battery could be better
Also looking for a true senseless, AOSP gingerbread rom with gapps included, or at least flashable, any suggestions?
Thanks
Try lous #8....closest thing to whst ur talkin about would b skyraider athena, that and the other 5 gingerbread roms in development

If you haven't tried chad's incredikernel:
http://chad0989.dyndns.org/2.6.32.27-incredikernel-12232010-plus25v.zip
then I suggest you give it a go.
Use it without setCPU, at least at first. It has one built in so you really don't need one, if you find it too sluggish or you think you can set it better then put it on after you gave the whole Kernel a good run without it.
I find this Kernel very fast and the best for battery life that I've tried.

Not many of those. Really CM7 is the only one I've found worthy of flashing.
Try the RC1
(If you go with AOSP then you will need a different kernel than listed above)
Thanks guys for the replies.
I will try #8 tonight, also on chad's Kernels I have read the same and will be trying that one as well. I'm really liking Senseless 2.0 with Launcher pro Plus
Yeah I understand that with a sense rom you have to have a sense Kernel and with AOSP rom an AOSP kernel. Question though. IF i did decide to try and AOSP ROM, that AOSP rom should/would come with a new Kernel right? Just don't flash Lou's stuff/sense kernel after that.. only flash another AOSP Kernel. Is that right?
I have the Droidx so this Kernel stuff is new to me lol.. still learning.

You got it Most/all ROMs for the Inc come with a kernel included. I personally like the one CM7 RC1 comes with, gives me great battery life
Ziggy's 12111 beta
If I flash to incredikernel from Lou's #4 I just need to wide delvic cache correct?

[Q] Kernels?

I just flashed koni's elite II rom (which is awesome) and i want a really fast kernel that's compatible, any suggestions?
any sense kernel. try a few. when i was on sense, i either used netarchy's newest cfs version, or one of ziggy's beta kernels (www.ziggy471.com). i also like calkulin's modded htc 15 kernel. try cyanogenmod nightly 7 stock kernel is new and beast. or try savagezen on aosp.
Thanks man
no problem
I wouldn't have advised him to use and AOSP kernel on a Sense rom.

i didnt.
" try cyanogenmod nightly 7 stock kernel is new and beast. or try savagezen on aosp."
i'd say thats clear enough. you can mock me for being wrong when he flashes savagezen over myns (which would totally be worth the pictures of fail that people would post btw)

[Q] Should I update my kernel?

I am just wondering if I should update my kernel? I have been rooted since day one and I don't believe I have ever accepted any updates. I have also been running the MikG 2.1 rom for many months. The kernel I currently have is 4.54.651.1. I saw that I can download 4.67.651.3. I know there are also lots of others out there.
Will there be a big advantage to this, or should I just leave it alone. I am about to update to the MikG 3.1 rom in a few minutes is the reason I am looking.
Thanks.
Every rom you flash comes with a kernel, or it wouldn't boot. Just flash the mik rom you want, it will have what you need.
Now if you wanna ask about updating your radio, that's a whole different thing, and depending on how old your radio is, it is possible you may need to update your radio. But I'm guessing since you're on a relatively recent rom already, you won't have an issue with your current radio.
The only time I read that I HAD to update my radio to flash a particular rom was when the rom was built off a new OTA (going from froyo to GB), I believe. But that may have not even been true/necessary.

You shouldn't "need" to update kernel. Many kernels available do have some improvements over the stock in regards to lower voltage for better battery performance, ability to over clock, other performance tweaks as well as hdmi stuff. Maybe none of those features will interest you but the option is there, flash a custom kernel and if you don't like it, flash the stock kernel. User experiences vary, you are the best judge of performance.
I was unsure about flashing a kernel for a while, it can be a little intimidating but u won't regret upgrading your Kernel. I eventually moved onto building my own kernel.
If you looking for a good sense kernel I would recommend Lionfish. Freedom and Chop Suey also are good kernels.

[Q] best kernel

im running a stock rooted rom. ive tried pretty much all of the roms available but not really impressed by many of them. i like my stock rom and was wondering what the best kernel was to flash to over and underclock. ive seen a lot about kettle corn but seems a lot of reviews complain about the battery being drained because of this kernel. so any suggestions?

Best bet is Der Kernel Alpha 7 by morfic. Stable OC (not really any purpose for it with this phone) and features.
I've been running Morfic's Trinity Alpha 7 kernel for TW LG8 STOCK ROMs, coupled with strongsteve's OdexedBlue 5.2. Smooth & stable (I flashed the kernel the moment it was posted), the kernel is undervolted for better battery life at underclocked frequencies.
