I need to know the best kernel i'm currently on netarchy's 4.18 i and I have seen kingkilcks but I flash his #8 cfs but it made my phone lag alot and #7 seem to run battery down, but I can't be positive cuz I didn't run it for more than an hour...basically I wanna know wut's the best kernel for battery life? or opinions at least
Running snaps 7.5 or. 6 don't recall ATM but the battery life is crazy
from the fade
Kings #9 is pretty close to the new stock kernel ...
I'm having the best luck with Netarchy's 4.1.9.1 beta on my 002 EVO. I don't even have to use SetCPU to underclock for more battery that's how nice the kernel is.
I agree with cMeka
I am running Baked Snack 1.7 ROM with Kings BFS#9 kernel and the battery life is awesome.
P.S. Battery life got even better on Kings #9 after uninstalling SetCPU. SetCPU interferes with H/AVS and defeats the purpose.
Good Luck!

okay i will but then how would I over clock the fone, or should i just not set up profiles?
Can someone explain the difference between kernels and roms? Also do you have to wipe in order to flash new kernels the same way you would a new rom?

Kernels basically control the hardware. Roms not so much hardware as software(trying to be real simple for ya). Wipe cache and davlik.

thnx that makes sense
I've got a noob question...... Can you flash just a kernel and just use a stock rom?
I'm rooted and just using clockworkmod, at the moment.

If your rooted then yeah you can. Make sure its for sense roms first. There are sense and asop (senseless roms like cm6)

no, it isnt. none of the king kernels are. they are waaaay out of date, and it turns out, kingklick just stole most of the code from other devs. either use netarchy's newest, or ziggy's newest. thats mostly all you have for sense.
Personally, any sense rom can drain battery, but the best i have seen is Baked Battery Kernel. Awesome battery life and it is very fast.

oh not ota 3.70 based. that's probably why it works. any kernel not 15 based usually gets terrible results on 3.70 ota so i guess you found a loophole there . i did hear very good things about that kernel so glad to know it can still be applied to good work.
I am getting good results with ziggy (calkulin rom) and suggesting to try it.

Most of the time i do use Cyanogenmod instead because, everybody knows, it has a wayyyyyy better battery life. Sense needs an app freezer, like titanium backup pro, so that they dont just start up again.

I'm not opposed to using a different rom, I just haven't gotten in to that area yet. Where's a good place to read about "sense" and different types of roms and reasons for using particular ones? Appearance I guess is the main reason? I'm just about ready to dive of this cliff. Thanks!
So I decided to root my evo a couple of days ago but I didnt flash any roms so Im still using the stock sense ui. Are there any good battery kernels to use with stock sense ui because Im having a hard time finding any? What do you guys suggest?

If I were running a sense ROM I would flash Netarchy's kernels...
netarchy or ziggy's are your main choice listed on XDA. else where on the web you can find Baked kernel and kings kernel.
i would just start with Netarchy and see how it goes.
Thanks alot guys. Ill try them out...

First make sure u read up on SBC so you are aware of any 'possible ' issues. That said I use SBC, and I would use the netarchy 4.2.2 less aggressive HAVS
i dont really suggest using a SBC kernel personally. if you decide yuo want to it depends the more aggresive the undervolt the better the battery. this can impact performance and not all phones like an aggressive undervolt kernel and can reboot more often.
I would jsut find the netarchy kernel thread itself and lookf or the latest and try the aggressive undervolt kernel. if you have performance issues (random reboots) then flash the less aggressive one.
I'm not really digging an SBC Kernal as well. You of any good kernels that aren't SBC?

Hey everyone, I'm wondering what kernel would be best to use with CM7. I don't know much about the differences kernels make so I'm coming to you guys to just recommend me the one that would perform the best with CM7. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sorry if a post like this has been made before. Thanks!
I'm running the savage-Zen kernel and it seems to be real stable for me...I use the SBC version but if you don't wanna take any risk for your battery then you can use the non SBC kernel

You'll be fine with either.
Hard to say, I tried cm many times over the years and now I just switched from sense 3.0 to deck 1.2 w a savaged zen 2.2.1 cfs kernel. Everything booted extremely fast and seems to work great! I am very satisfied w the battery life an only issue I am seeing is a slight GPS issue but I haven't had time to really address it. No one else is complaining about it so I'm sure its me, but even that being said...I recommend deck w the kernel mentioned. I have it set at 998mhz and either on demand or interactivex gov is working great. No lag. No hickups. Camera, mms works. Wifi is grabbing great and it just gets it done.
i think im gonna try out decks 1.2
after i flash is there anything else i should do to it?
Edit: GPS took a day to settle in and now working great!

Get the deck rom, gapps, and go ahead and get sz 2.2.1 cfs. Flash rom, then gapps then kernel. The reboot. Let it settle. Full reboot after it settles. Then set up. Give it a day or two before you move on and see what u think. Also keep your speed at stock speed and see how you like it. Mine is running fantastic. Don't see a need to overclock ATM

Either CM7 with the latest Tiamat kernel/3.3.7 or Xplod with the latest Tiamat/3.3.7

but isn't tiamat on 4.1.0, why use 3.3.7?
I think it has alot to do with your hardware and rom/kernel combo. I'm on hardware 004. Currently running Xplod 2.1.3 with SavagedZen 2.2.1 cfs havs+ sbc. Great battery life and the phone is incredibly snappy. Funny thing, when I run the Savagedzen aosp rom I have better results with tiamat... Go figure.
Best thing I could tell you for advice is try alot of different rom/kernel combos and see what works best for you and your hardware. Remember to always give a new combo a day or two to "settle in", as they always seem to level out.
Anyways thats my .02, hope I helped. Good luck to you and happy flashing!

I wouldn't say better, just a nice refreshing change. Great eye candy, actually, I believe it was ported from a sony and based on cm's latest.
Also, it has wonderful support by from Team Nocturnal, wich is always nice to have the devs so fully involved. Check it out, it will be on the first page of development..

I'm using CM7 and just switched to Savaged Zen. I also downloaded the apk to toggle the SBC feature off. I have to say that being able to toggle the SBC off made the Savaged Zen kernel my new #1 kernel. My launcher no longer redraws and my battery lasts longer than it ever has with any other kernel. Savaged Zen gets my vote.

Well the thing about savaged Zen is that they aren't actually updating and I did try it but when you download the SBC toggle feature do u actually have a button where you just hit a check mark or do u do utterly some other way? also in the pic u have how did you get the battery and signal to look like that?

The SVZ Manager comes with a toggle switch so you can switch SBC on and off whenever you want. It also has an option to maintain your desired setting whenever the phone reboots. I just have SBC turned off all the time and dont have to worry about resetting my choice each time the phone reboots.

I use UOT Kitchen to modify a number of different things within the ROM such as notification icons, notification bar style and color, overscroll, boot animation, etc. I've included the zip file I used to get my Evo to look exactly the way it does in the picture below. Just put zip file in root folder, boot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache, flash uot zip file, boot into android and open up Theme Chooser, select UOT theme, click Apply, and enjoy. However, you can go to http://uot.dakra.lt/how_to/ to see how to customize one however you want. The possibilities are endless.
Remember, as with any flashable material you use the file at your own risk.
Here are some images of the other things my zip file below modifies.
