Kernels - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using virus's infection rom and would like to know what's the best battery saving kernel you guys recommend?
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk

I believe net-archy kernels have good battery life; can always try savaged zen.

I must agree netarchy's kernels seemed to be the best one on sense roms...I never tried salvage zen but it popular and a lot of people seem to like it...I'm on CM7 tho so I couldnt give you my preference

Sorry I misread the post...the virus roms are AOSP...my bad (its been a long day so far)...for best battery life (and performance imo) is the tiamat kernels...the link is in my sig at the bottom...definitely the best I have tried

like nuggy said, it depends. it seems like everytime i update my rom i need a new kernel to go with it.
i personally recommend netarchy's. i used his 4.1.9.1 kernel with great results for a long time, but recently upgraded to his 4.2.1.
you can check evobenchers for a general rundown on what kernels are running at, but once again, every phone handles things differently and your results may vary.

I have an HTC Evo 4G rooted running Myn's rls 5 .
What's the best kernel to get the most out of my battery ?
Sent From One BadAss Rooted Evo 4G On Myn's Warm 2.2 Rls 5 Steroids Via XDA App. ;-)
ima straight flash addict. ive flashed 95% of evo roms and kernels out there, unmatched battery life is SBC kernel #15. it honestly lasts me all day and im a heavy user but apperently it can lead to your phone blowing up ive never had that problem tho so ill keep taking the risk
Others are right. Try a few and see what works best. Try Netarchy's HAVS kernels with SBC for full battery and smartass or conservative governor (SetCPU from the market to set it easily).
SBC got a little harder to find recently, but it's out there, just not on the main netarchy page. Give the devs a little time and they'll work out the right legalese to appease the fear mongers...
I have myn rls5 as well and I use netarchy's 4.3.1 no SBC with cfs and havs (the newest beta) and have been doing okay with it. I typically have about 15%-25% at the end of an average day. It also improves the speed of myn rls5, which I like.
I gave up SBC for all my nandroid backed-up roms when everyone stopped supporting it, but I do still have SBC #15 v7 if you would like it (PM me and I'll upload it to you).
Keep in mind that a few people have claimed that it destroyed their battery, but I didn't overclock and all the data I've read on my phone tells me that everything was fine. So obviously, no one is responsible for your phone blowing up but you, lol.
I used SBC #15 v7 for about 2 and a half weeks and it was the best battery life I had. I ended every day at about 30% battery life and I'm a moderate user. When I flash to mikfroyo, I keep that kernel as the performance of the rom plus the battery life is a combo from awesomeville.

[Q] Battery Kernal?!?!

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...
I'm kind of slow with this. Which file would I download if I wanted to use a kernal out of this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=876590

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?

Really surprised no one sent you to MYN's warm 2.2 rom thread....great rom....lots of great kernal options....lots of mods...it truly is the king of roms for your evo...give it a try you won't be disappointed...let me know if you have any questions. Mike

Kernel question

What's better for battery life, SUV or HAVS??? And r there any kernels out for gingersense ROMS yet??
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
This link should help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894880
Personally I've had terrible luck with any suv kernels on my evo so havs has been better for me.
There are NO kernels out there for 2.3 sense roms only 2.2.
Right now I'm running Gingersense with the latest netarchy more havs sbc kernel. For some reason though I can't download from the market anymore... still trying to figure that one out.
That being said Gingersense is still awesome!
I have had the best luck and battery life with HAVS the best for me was Tiamat_Evo v3.3.8. I would also suggest in using the Kernel Manager app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030486.

[Q] Best Kernel for EVO running CM7

I flashed CM 7 a while back and love it, but as always I feel as though I'm not getting the best battery life. With moderate use I'm lucky not to have to plug it in halfway through the day.
Any good kernel recommendations for good battery life? I'm testing SavagedZen's kernel and using it's governor currently. I find it to have excellent life while the phones asleep, but it's a battery hog when I'm using the phone.
GoDm0dE has done wonders for my battery life! Your mileage may vary as all EVO's seem to be slightly different.
Im having a great exp with SZ 2.1.0. Try using the BFS version of the latest savagezen; As to me it seems the savagezen governor works best with their rom versus cm7(if that's what ur using). I personally run conservative or ondemand with a max of 1113 and 245 min. You could also try the new toast godmode kernel! Here's some general info I think you might find helpful.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894880
I've tried a million different kernals and personally I think CM7 just still has some battery issues to work out.
What has become a frustration of mine is that I continually get different results with the same items. In other words. Some days I'll be using the same kernal and ROM release and even the same programs and my battery will disolve right before my eyes while sudden then I'll get great battery life for a day or two.
Personaly I think it has something to do with 3g and wifi issues, because I seem to have random issues with those as well . . . but I don't know enough about all this to back that up with anything more than anecdotal observation.
CM7 + Timat Kernel = EPIC WIN.
If you flash, only use version 3.3.7 or 3.3.8 as 4.0.0 is breaking some cameras.
Toastcfh's GoDm0dE Kernel gets my vote, and that's coming from Tiamat 3.3.8 with the -100mv script from Viperboy. The Godmode kernel is by FAR much smoother and has gotten me better battery life. Toastcfh works on Cyanogenmod so you know it'll run well with CM7

I'm getting the best battery life from this combo, using 3.3.8
I just started using CM7 last week and also love it.
Image give God mode a shot n see how that works out....if not ill go back to tiamat until they fix the issue's wit the 4.0

Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Not sure if this helps anyone, but running godmode at 245/1113 vs tiamat at 245/1267, performance governor on both, I benchmark much better on godmode. I know there's a lot more to consider than that but with a lower clock it surprised me how well godmode did. IIRC I got 1333 on quadrant.
Can anyone point me in the direction where I can find the original CM7 kernel to have on hand to switch back to should I so desire? I want to play with some other kernels, but I always like to have the original sitting by just in case, ya know?

Any input would be welcomed (ok, any constructive input hah)

Kernel manager app

Tiamat has a nice kernel with the sbc added to it. I get around 16-20hrs on moderate use with it.

I tried kernel manager, but whenever I try to DL a kernel it pauses then drops me back at the kernel selection screen. All I really want is the current CM / CM nightly kernel(s) so that I can try Tiamat or some of the others but still have a fail safe to drop back to without flashing a whole ROM...sighs

Yeah, I have the tiamat kernel...what I cannot seem to find anywhere, XDA, CM forums, way too much google digging, is the CM kernel to fall back to if I do not like the results I get with tiamat.
To sum it up...
What I have:
Tiamat, Savage, godmode, and every other custom kernel...but CM
What I am seeking:
CM kernel in flashable form, and if kernel manager is the magical answer, can someone PM me and you can email it to me since the manager fails to work for me?

ROM Recommendations.

I Would Prefer an AOSP ROM,but last time i did that the PRL was outdated and my coverage was such garbage i had to use wifi.if i flash the latest radio and whatnot,THEN an aosp rom,which one?...im not big on sense,i have alot of apps,so apps2sd enabled is preferred,possibly a custom kernel but idk if the evo can even be safely over/underclocked.and also,i had an amazing experience with godmode in synergy,is there any other rom that comes close to that kinda performance...im being picky hell id cook my oen,but no PC.
Shooter Evo 4G
Cm7 latest version with Tiamat 3.3.7 kernal. Can get 24 hours depending on usage.
World peace with no regard for human life.
Whats a good sense rom thats stable?i mean everything ive seen has somethin messed up like 4g,sms errors...multiple bugs.i need something stable,where u dont need to keep flashing back n forth.froyo gingerbread i dont care my main concerns are a smooth performance with optimal battery life,i possibly wanna put in an SBC kernel....
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk
How about for myself.
I have my EVO flashed over to MetroPCS and currently have Metrodroid2.2 running on the phone. Would I be best to continue running with that ROM, or switching over to CM7.1 along with a patch from the Metrodroid thread for MMS?
What is best for me?
SNS Gingerbread v1.4.1

For stability, try MikG. No issues for me. I quite personally use r3chargeD, it is so awesome and I have AMAZING battery life. I think the update to come for it will make it impossibly awesome
ChopSuey kernel is my personal preference
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Give the latest SalvageMod AOSP ROM a try you can use Tiamat's SBC kernel if that's what you prefer. Coming from CM7, I like this one more.
Ive tried r3charged,i had multiple sms errors,now im on stock rooted deodexed,i havent had any issues.by stable i mean a RC that has no bugs.i know that may be asking alot,but i cant afford to not have all my features intact.also,i had issuea with multiple different AOSP roms,poor signal and weaker wifi,even with the latest radio combo pack....so im gunna steer clear of CM7.
