[Q] Netarchy 4.3 SBC Kernel

I flashed a new kernel, netarchy 4.3 bfs no havs SBC and no undervolting. I had read before that it can take up to a few days for your phone to stable out after flashing a new kernel. I don't have any major issues, just get some really bad lag here and there. So, is it true that the phone takes time to become stable again? And if so, will the lagging go away in time?

Maybe...but then again it could be the kernel/rom/your phone combo. They say to wait for a few days for the kernel to level out but when I installed netarchy 4.2.1 cfs more havs smartass, my phone was zippy from the first boot. And never got slower or faster. So you could try to wait it out but if you find the perfect kernel for you phone it will
Probably be good right away. Once you find a good one I would run it for every rom you use. I've been on sbc net 4.2.1 for maybe a month and I'm not goin anywhere!!
I used the site evobenchers.com to make my decision to go with 4.2.1 it seemed to have the perfect mix of low battery drain and good speed and to my surprise it worked.check out the site and use the graphs to make you're decision. Good luck
Evo - Myn 2.2 RLS 3 - Clockwork - HBoot .76

As of right now it doesn't seem to lag a bit. However, I disabled all window animations so that's probably the reason why. It seems to be doing fine though. I'm really loving this battery life, I've spent about 30 min texting, on Facebook, and playing angry birds. Still sitting at 100%

Yeah...it's a really good kernel.

[Q] what do YOU think is the most stable ROM and Kernal?

Hello all-
I LOVE trying out roms and kernals, and I am growing tired of every rom and kernal stating "stable, fast, totally awesome, etc" I know there are some awesome roms and kernals out there but I wanted to know what YOU believe is the fastest and/or most stable ROM and kernal out there?

Skyraider 3.5 with any of lou's kernels from 6 onwards.

Simple. The latest cm7 nightly.

No, nightlies by definition are not stable. they are experimental builds. many things break in the nightlies.
not being difficult but this thread definitely does not belong in the dev section. this should be in the general or q&a section.

doesnt mean it isnt stable for him..
Myns roms are always stable for me

I agree it belongs in Q&A, but I stand by my response. I believe it is the most stable ROM at this point in time for Inc no matter what the "definition" is.
OP check it out. Are you on a SLCD or AMOLED?

i have had a few issues on cm7. the latest one was on #19 - i lost mobile network data connectivity. also check the CM7 & Protekk threads. there have been gps issues on the protekk #10 build too. this thing is far from stable. the most stable roms I ever used were:
1. the verizon stock build
2. virtuous
3. redemption
4. skyraider
However, I choose to not run any of those because they are too simple I am a rom philanderer and cm7 and the desire z and other roms I use are full of features I want. Stability is overrated IMHO. Thats my opinion.

Well said. I wouldn't know how stable the verizon stock build is as of late. The one I had when I got the phone in April 2010 was not even close to stable.
Virtuous was my 1st rooted ROM it was fantastically stable
Redemption was excellent as well for stability although mms was hit and miss sometimes as well as theming breaking optimizations at times.
Never ran SR long enough to judge for myself.
Funny about the gps issue. I just tested this right now and if you don't leave it on, which a lot of people do, there is a re-acquiring satellite issue until a reboot. This is the 1st bump I've hit with nightly 17, and although I'll never see it as I leave gps on it is a bump. Thanks for pointing it out!

My choice is Warm Z 2.2, which, even though I am using the Re-Engineered Nightlies, it is still very stable and extremely snappy with Hydra’s Stock speed undervolted kernel, to mention incredible (yes, pun intended) battery life, even with the pile of dog crap that is the stock battery.

Thanks, the last verizon build (that was deodexed and posted in nov i think) was stable. Not sure whether I had a bad download but I had data network issues with #19 too. I also did not notice the GPS issue (since I leave it on) until I read about it.

Been using protekks cm7 daily builds im currently on #8 with invisiblek and life has been sweet!! incredikernel was nice outside of the fact it made my phone get warm when it was charging.

HTC DINC
CyanogenMod 7 By Protekk
Invisiblekk 2.6.37.2
Currently Testing Radio 09.01
ADW Launcher EX

Magnolia with Ziggy's CFS HAVS kernel has been treating me quite nicely! Very stable even at overclocked speeds like 1.15. It's smooth, but not the fastest ROM out there. CM6 is pretty stable too with stock kernel, and very snappy!

I think CM7 has the most promise, but for stability I would say that the SkyRaider ROMs were always the most stable. I tried Myns but I had a few problems and returned to SkyRaider Athena.

OMFGB 1.1.1 with Invisiblek's latest GB kernel. I get 200+ uptime without any slow downs, I end up rebooting for an updated kernel. I got one FC on the Rom since I installed it and it was for LauncherPro

If you want stability you need to stick with HTC Sense and a good solid kernel like chad's incredikernel.
AOSP ROM's have a tendency to not be nearly as stable, although they can run faster and have some other features you mind find interesting.
A top choice for a Sense ROM is SkyRaider 3.5
AOSP as you can see, CM7 is a lot of people's first choice- but it is not as stable as most sense ROM's but I wouldn't call it unstable either.

[Q] Is CM7 nightly good choice for AOSP rom

hey everyone, I just came from the dinc (died on me) and my insurance gave me the dinc 2 and i am looking to get it back to what i had before. on the dinc i was using cm7 as I thought is was the better of the aosp's now i come to the dinc2 and it is still in nightly phase so I ask what aosp would you recommend?
tl:dr CM7 as senseless rom or is there a more stable one? OMGB for example

Actually, the CM7 nightlies are doing quite well. It won't be long before you see an RC, that's for sure. I tried running CM7 with the Tiamat kernel and got amazing results, but I was never a fan of barebones AOSP.

Cm7 is really good. I haven't loaded the last few nightlies because there haven't been any changes. I'm using JDkernel as I had some crashes with Tiamat. On my device JD is stable to the top setting of 1920mhz, although my quadrant scores don't improve over 1593mhz.

Definitely more than good enough for your daily driver. I rooted 4? days ago and have been running the last few nightlies and have had zero issues.
I too came from the Odinc and CM7 is as good here as it was there so far.

CM7 is my favorite because its options, it's polished, stock kernel is flexible and gets me to ~1500mHz with outstanding battery life. The key is it delivers superior performance and battery life while being "stock" CM. I'm referring to the nightlies throughout.
I am a little bummed to see the nightly updates seemed to have stalled a bit since CyanogenMod (the Man) was signed at Samsung. http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=vivow

Thanks for the info guys, now can I ask, how are you getting those numbers with OC-ing and what are you using to adjust the frequency?

another satisfied CM7 customer here...I've been running the nightlies for the greater part of a month (with the Tiamat kenel) and I couldn't be happier
you can set CPU frequency within CM7 settings, for more detailed control you'll need something like SetCPU

I've been using Tiny's kernel released on 9/1 and I overclocked it to 1. 075 using smartass and battery life is great. It also helped with the performance and now it is even smoother. I really recommend it.

There are currently only two kernels available for Gingersense roms: stock gingerbread kernel and Tiny's. Not much of a variety or possibility for recommendations at the moment

Flash tiny during the afternoon and had 3 random reboot but other than that everything is fine. But I think I'm going back to the kernel this rom had for stock I just hate random reboots

Hmmm, it worked great on Nils' 2.1/3.0 Gingersense. I was running that for the past couple of days and it did bootloop once. I just flashed 3.0 with Tiny's kernel. I'll report back tomorrow.

I was going to suggest that if you had set a screen off profile in SetCPU then that most likely was the problem since the smartass governor automatically detects when your screen is off, thus not needing a screen off profile. If you have one then it screws with the kernel. Since you uninstalled it and still experienced problems then that must not have been the cause.
I've reverted back to Nils 2.1/3.0 with Tiny's kernel and everything is running fluidly. Everyone I've seen that uses this kernel with either ROM has nothing but good things to say so maybe you had a bad download, or just bad luck lol

That's the first thing I did set up the profiles specially the screen off one thanks for that.
I will re-download just in case is a bad download and try it again without profiles and see what happen.

Good to hear. It's easier to respond to bug reports in my kernel thread on the dev page as I rarely watch the other threads.
Which version did you come from when going to the Sept 1st one? I had upped the voltage slightly in the releases from the betas but nothing crazy. With this kernel there's no HAVS yet so voltage adjustment like in AOSP is not available yet. Voltage is the same at stock 1Ghz as 1.113Ghz so overclocking shouldn't affect power in this case. Remember that battery drain has a lot to do with usage and signal strength, though I try to add the tweaks I can (smartass+HAVS+UV). When I add HAVS it should be undervolted a bit more.

Synergy rom

How to get better battery life with synergy
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I too would like to know....
although I am currently using evodeck's ICS Rom and I have to tell you
It ROCKS!!!

Ive been using synergy rls1 since its release and with the extended battery i can got about 2 days without charging

yeah.. i have been running Synergy + God mode... since release...
there are a few issues.. i am looking to try out some custom Kernels. what is the best ones to try out?
I have heard some talk about the Freedom kernel.. but is was released in July! seems kind of old... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192529

2 Days with what kind of use? I don't have an extended battery and as long as I didn't used the phone for anything other than a phone the battery was pretty good. If I tried to do anything that needed the display open...internet, angry birds, whatever....it wouldn't last an hour. Didn't matter whether I had auto brightness set or not. Went to San Antonio over the weekend turned the brightness all the way down on the plane (at night) and it still didn't last an hour. Had to use my wife's Epic! I used hers for an hour doing the same thing and only lost 10%. I'm currently attempting EnergyROM...so far it doesn't seem any better just using the kernel it comes with. Sorry I'm no help, I gave up on Synergy.

I wanna know too !

I ran Synergy for a while and achieved excellent battery life. But, synergy is becoming outdated and not being currently developed. If you like synergy, strongly recommend switching to MikG 2.61, its a 2.1 + 3.0 sense rom. Definitely a superior rom thats updated and development ongoing. Battery life is better, and rom is faster and much smoother. Not bashing synergy, both roms are personal choice, but try MikG.

I will second this. I had a few minor problems with Synergy, including battery life, not horrible battery life, but worse than most roms. MikG is basically the exact same rom, and runs a lot smoother.

Amon RA is not a root method, it's a recovery. And no, you don't have to use Amon, clockwork works just fine.
