I know I'm noobish so I apologize in advance if this question is dumb.
My phone is rooted and has sprintlovers 2.2 ROM, I wanted HDMI to work on my phone as it didn't with stock kernel so I tried netarchys newest offering something like 4.3.4 no HAVS no static UV. This kernel hated my phone. It was very slow both in feeling and in benchmark testing.
Then I downloaded teamwins offering for HDMI acceleration something along the lines of poonsense. This works great on my phone and also now hdmi app works.
Kernel I have now is listed as [email protected] # 17
What I want is the kernel I have now with the ability to overclock. I use the 1-1-1 Power Management System (see signature) so my phone is never on the charger and I don't need extra battery life so I'm more concerned with performance but would prefer if battery life was only minimally affected.
Anyone have any suggestions on a sense kernel that is near stock but has HDMI acceleration support and overclocking both in one? I looked around but was not having luck. Thanks- Brandon
Not exactly sure, but you can try the savaged-zen kernels.
I do believe the savagezen kernels are only for aosp; ive actually used this netarchy CFS NO-sbc Have LESS with HDMI and it works nice. Some phones don't like the kernels with aggressive havs or undervolting. If youre having battery issues you might want to downgrade your prl and nv from 1.90 to 1.77.

Thanks for all the replies.
I am not having battery issues to my knowledge.
The netarchy kernel I tried had neither havs or undervolting, it was the standard 4.3.4 kernel and it ran very badly. Unless it is possible to get a bad flash I think its not so compatible with my phone which is why I want the kernel I have now or something similar but with overclock option.
Anyone else have any suggestions? Is it *reasonably* possible that I got a bad file or flash of the netarchy beta? If so I may try it again as it has both features I want.
Did you flash 4.3.4 CFS or BFS? If you flashed CFS, try re-downloading it and re-flashing. If that doesn't work, try BFS. If you flashed BFS, I would still try downloading and flashing CFS and flashing that.

Unfortunately there is not a 4.3.4 netarchy kernel yet that is BFS, there is just CFS at this time. I may try to redownload it but I have to be honest I have a feeling I will get the same results I guess if there is a chance there isnt much to lose right?
I actually thought about that, but was too lazy to check if there was a BFS or not. but, I have had bad downloads before. Strange that your phone doesn't like that kernel though, dont here that too often.

I just flashed the netarchy kernel earlier today and it works great now. Must have been a bad download or flash???
Anyhow, I'm happy now I will probably try the HAVS versions now.

Which one do you like better? I'm not necessarily looking for best over clock speed, but actually better battery life. Any ideas?
I prefer kings kernels.. I haven't had good results on nets kernels lately.. cpu stayed at 100% a lot for me..
Kings scales just fine for me and provides great battery life.. I use his bfs #4 kernel.

I've used nearly every one of netarchy's kernels, but am now using King's. My battery life is awesome on BFS #4, and everything is very smooth.
I actually prefer hero's baked snack kernel 1. It also has HAVS like king's kernel. Standby time battery life is about the same between king's and hero's, but for me hero's battery life is better when actively using the phone.

Stupid question, but what is the difference between BFS and CFS kernels?
I guess a better question is BFS #4 or CFS #7?

Google is your friend. But basically, BFS is supposed to be faster, while a little less stable, while CFS is supposed to be a little more stable (its older), but the trade off is the speed. I personally dont see much of a speed difference, but I still usually use BFS.
netarchy. Never had any problems with his kernels. Haven't tried King's yet, but the way I look at is, if it ain't broke don't fix it.

running net's kernel atm, but most likely going to switch. 4g doesn't seem to work for me, and it keeps saying there is a voicemail update, but won't actually let me install it.
I'm sure KingxKlick is a great guy and knows what he's doing, but I avoid his kernel because he doesn't actually own an Evo. I stick with netarchy because he's someone I trust.

Unistall voicemail from Titanium backup. Then go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7749762&postcount=44 That is the updated Apk for the voicemail. Hope that helps man. And for me I use Kingz and love it. Been getting some very good battery life out of it. And its smooth even when running @ 1.17 oc.

Do you have the latest radios?
The voicemail update (or lack of update, rather) is a ROM issue. It affects Fresh and others. More info and fix here.

hmm, thats weird. I didn't have the problem before i flashed it with the kernel. any info on the 4g issue? if thats rom as well, then netarchy kernel is fine.
edit: just did a quick flash of king's kernel. seems like the 4g issue is rom issue as well.
Kings has been amazing so far, i'm very satisfied!
I have used both and get better battery out of kings by a large margin. I am using the BFS #4 and couldn't be happier. I had the 100% CPU issue on nets last update.
Here is a simple thing for me: When I am running Kings, my phone seems cooler to the touch, no matter what I'm doing. On nets, it get warm, then cools, then warm. Heat is wasted energy.
I think lots of the meat and cheese in Kings kernel came from net anyhow, but I no longer has a need to flash a new kernel. Sticking with kings.

Like said above, if it isn't broke, I don't fix it. I'm using Netarchy's 4.18 and I'm not having the 100% cpu issue at all
Ok, figured I'd contradict myself and flash king's #4 bfs and test benchmarks against net's 4.1.8 bfs. Here are my results:
Fresh 3.1.0.2 / novatec 0003 / setcpu @ 1152 performance
fps2d:
net's - 54/2.69 attempt 2 of 3
king's - 54/1.84 attempt 3 of 3
linpack:
net's - 37.029 attempt 4 of 5
king's - 37.661 attempt 4 of 5
Nena Mark: Only ran once
net's - 15.7
king's - 15.5
Neocore: Only ran once
net's - 31.4
king's - 31.7
Quadrant:
net's - 1496 attempt 1 of 2
king's - 1513 attempt 2 of 2
Looks like king won this round. Gonna keep running it to see what battery life is like.
Netarchy 4.1.8. Maybe I'll try King's....but Netarchy is always on the ball. My battery is at 26.0 C on Net's and I've been surfing the web.
Will be using net's. It's like Kobe v LeBron

Hey all,
I just flashed Sprint Lover's ROM and I was wondering what is the best Kernal for this Sense ROM? I really like the stock look, but I would love to improve some performance under the hood.
Any help would be great!
Thank you very much!!!

I always use Netarchy's kernel, but what may be good on one phone may also be bad on another phone. I suggest flashing different kernels and testing them out.

Go Here for his kernels. I use Netarchy Toastmod - 4.3-cfs-havs-more-sbc and so far it's worked amazing on the various ROMs I've used (including Sprint Lovers) but it's worked best for me on Myn's ROMs.

I think I'm gonna flash this kernel tomorrow, but maybe the nosbc so I don't fry my battery... Have you had any issues with the battery with the sbc? And do you use SetCpu with the kernel?

No, and no
Don't use SetCPU with a havs kernel. If you go with one of his nohavs kernels then by all means use SetCPU as you wish. Another thing, just from my personal experience (though it may be different for your phone) the CFS kernels work far better than the BFS kernels. There's a guide around here that explains the difference.
As far as SBC goes, I haven't had any issues yet. I've been using a battery monitor to watch what's going on with my battery and haven't seen anything wrong with it. Another thing I do, just as a small precaution, is not let the phone charge 6-8 hours over-night. I'll let it charge to 100% then let it sit for about 2-3 more hours and call it quits. Don't know if that really does anything, but it makes me feel better so eh.
I know the military (I'm in the Army) uses Lit-ion batteries and trickle charges them without having any of them blow up/fry, however they do lose their ability to hold a charge over time. The fact that they do it, and the only problem has been lifespan of the battery is what convinced me to try an SBC kernel. Just choose whichever you feel comfortable with. It's all preference really.

I've been using that one with no-sbc and it's worked great with the conservative profile. HAVS just deals with what voltage the processor uses at any given time/frequency so you can indeed use setcpu with it. It's the kernels with the built in smartass governor or ROMs using other battery tweaking scripts that don't always work well with setcpu.
And trust me, the military does not trickle charge their li-ions and they only run them at 4.10 volts to extend their life (depending on battery, always less than volts than their commercial counterparts). This I know for certain.
Anyone have a link to the stock kernel
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Guys quick question, with the above mentioned kernel. What frequency does if use when you turn off the screen? I want if to use the lowest possible, does the kernel do it automatically or should I use something like the overlook widget?
Also, can someone please provide instructions how to update the kernel, I haven't looked at the link yet so If there's instructions there that fine.
Thanks
wifi errors
i just flashed to netarchy kernel to my evo. cfs, havs no sbc. when i try to connect to wifi it says error. i used kernal manager to flash the kernal. is there anything i can to do to get the wifi back or do i need to go back to the stock kernel. i am running sprint lovers ROM. any suggestions.
update. when i flashed manually everything worked fine. maybe the kernel manager program has an issue with wiping the cache. not really sure. just thought i should let everyone know.
I would use the stock #15 HTC Kernel but with SBC. Link is in sec post here..

I've been using netarchy 4.3.4 cfs more havs aggressive sbc with no problems. Amazing battery life and very responsive.
Netarchy's kernels are very stable,if you're up for it try a sbc kernel,great battery life.
sbc
i was just reluctant to try an sbc because of the horror stories i have heard about frying the battery. i guess when i feel lucky i will try it.
I've searched but everything seems either old or non-existent. What are some of the kernels you all are using and how do you like them? Any you preferred over another? Any you recommend?
I'm currently using Salvagezen .2 CFS noSBC and it seems pretty good as far as battery life. I have previously used Tiamat, but I'm not really sure of the differences between these 2 other than obviously the developer.
FYI I'm using CM7 nightly
heres a link to my current kernel http://mirror.munkibizness.com/?nosbc
i find savagedzen's kernels are the very best there are, and i'd keep using them. if you are having problems, just say so and the team will get you sorted out in no time (yes, they are that good)
I have had a lot of luck with Netarchy's 4.3.2 series. Depending on your hardware, you will have different luck also. They seem to be real stable and have gotten me 17+ hrs. I use the heck out of my phone though.
I've also been using Netarchys kernel, but SBC. Definite improvement, never had a battery overheat.
I might try netarchy. I'm pretty sure I want noSBC just to be on the safe side. As far as the undervolting, havs, etc, I'm not sure what I want. The latest CM7 nightly stock kernel has been giving me greatly battery life lately though, so I might not even need to change.

Just make sure that you don't try Netarchy's kernels while you're still on CM7. Net's kernels are for Sense roms only, and you flash a sense kernel to an AOSP rom, you're definitely not going to have a solid experience. Stick with aosp kernels while on aosp roms.

HERE you can compare kernels. But i personally like a kernel that more aggressive. Netarchys Kernels & Ziggy's Kernels
You will have to experiment on your own and see what works best for you. Every phone reacts differently to kernels.
Personally, I have the best luck with Netarchy kernels. Ziggy kernels are completely unstable for me to the point where my system freezes up and I have to pull the battery.

Got onto the Elite 3 ROM the other day and LOVE it! However, its absolutely chewing through my battery life (extended batteries). Went from getting at very least 12 hours on MikFroyo 4.5 & stock kernel to now sitting at 63% after 3 hours! Was using Juice Defender for a bit until this kernel. lots of people said not to with havs.
Using Nets 4.3.4 cfs nosbc haves more with Konis Elite Series 3.
Have also got Setcpu running at smartass (also tried on demand) st 245/740ish and have one screen off profile set to 245/245 powersave.
Need to find a fix because I want to stay on this ROM.
was running fresh 3.5.0.1 and now have flashed Mikfroyo 4.5 which is a heck of a lot faster, has more pizzazz with it. I am noticing worse battery life though. I have never had any expeience flashing any kind of kernels at all but from what I have read they control the power flow between the phone and the battery. What are some kernels I should try to get better battery life. The stock kernel is ok...Fast but drains faster then the stock kernel on fresh 3.5.0.1...I know this has been asked probably more than what is the best rom whether it's AOSP or sense but I need help. thanks in advance
You can only run sense kernels on sense roms and vice versa. I'd recommend one of netarchys sense kernels. If you want a good explanation of types or kernels and how they work this link is your best friend.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894880
This is my recommendation to use with mikfroyo and any other sense roms. Its the 4.3.4 netarchy CFS havs less sbc. You don't have to use it but I've experienced the best overall performance with this one. Not everyones phone will react the same with each kernel. You have to test different ones and find which one your phone likes. I usually test a kernel for about 2 days myself. You would flash a kernel the same way you do a rom.
The kernel I suggested.

Yeah that guide is pretty handy. Hope you find a good kernel. There isn't much dev'ing going for 2.2 froyo sense kernels as most of the devs are just waiting for the official 2.3 gingerbread sense to release. You wont find many different sense kernels floating around as you would for aosp roms but hit up that netarchy thread I was talking about and do some browsing!
