Well, exactly what the title says. What do you guys think is the most stable kernel is with the best battery life out right now?
Pulled stock, LoSt kernel or stock with CWM. Go with a Shane or bubby kernel. The LoSt kernel has 2 versions. One has overclock
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I had several Los's with Zedomax over clocked kernel. Sofar the stable Lost kernel has been great for me with zero Los. Stock also had zero Los on my phone.
Does the e4gt really need to be over clocked? It sure seems fast enough for me, especially if I turn off all animations. Turning off animation is just habbit I picked up from when I was running Android on the HTC Vogue, just got use to a utilitarian environment.
Well I would like to run loStkernel, but I never once got loStkernel until I did. I've had the phone since release.
Either lost kernel or the stock pulled and stock with cwm.

Well I'm worried that once I flash any custom kernel that loS will start happening. Any input on this guys?

Stock EG30Plus Kernel for Epic Touch 4g compiled from source, properly.
Proper initramfs
su 3, superuser.apk, and busybox
ClockworkMod 5 (Compiled by bubby323)
Various Virtual Machine, Kernel and Network Tweaks I've been using in my plus kernels for quite some time...
Guess I should mention:
Bootanimation support, either bootanimation.zip or sanim.zip
init.d support
Remove Superuser.apk if its not version 3 before installing.
Odin the tar.md5 file
Immediately update profile
Me and bubby323 have spent quite a bit of time getting this recovery working correctly, and squaring away his kernel.

Whoa snap, I've been waiting for this to test out with Rob's v2.0. Will see how it holds up to the stock deodexed I'm using right now.
is what a bug?
Will this give the damn triangle? By stock.. do you mean like the one pulled from a stock device?
by stock i mean compiled from source, and the triangle is just there until you load a custom bootanimation....

shouldnt it be under kernal, not under build number?
no, kernel version is the linux kernel version... which is displayed correctly, though a bit strange looking. the build number is just provided traditionally by a rom, or kernel, or whatever...

I've used up all my thanks for the day on the 2 of you but thanks again. Been waiting on this.
Edit: Well I just flashed so haven't really got to test but my signal and down/upload speeds are WAY better!!!! Another thing I just noticed. I just got a news notification from Sprint Zone which is the first time I've ever gotten something from it since I've rooted.
I flashed this and then flashed back to stock (pulled) and now wifi will not connect.. how do I get back to stock (pulled) with working wifi?
Will be flashing this as soon as I get home.

Just curious, why are you on such an outdated version of MIUI?
Cause everything works..and ICS builds still have some question marks...small ones but there still there and i use my phone for business so everything has to work.
I tried a new kernel and the stock one is better so....
Everything works in 2.3.2, also...
Which is 2 months past the one you're using
2.3 didn't work on my evo...12.9 was the smoothest for me...every evo is different
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk 2
You can flash the rom over itself without wiping data and you'll be back to the stock kernel.

Yea well once i find a good stable rom i dont update really unless it has a new feature i want.
Back when i was on myns warm 2.2. I was on RLS3 and it was awesome..smooth,great battery. So i didnt update to RLS5 for bout 3 months after it was released. But i gave in for the notification bar quick settings. But RLS5 never gave me as good battery life as RLS3.
So once i find a good rom/kernel combo. I stick with it.
I didn't want to create new thread for new repack.
I guess we can keep couple of kernels in one thread.
For those of you who would like to run stock kernels with the builds
here are repacked FH13 and FH23 kernels with my recovery and some init.rc edits.
SD card read speed.
Custom boot animation support
init.d support
FH13
1. FH13_AGAT.zip flash in recovery.
2. FH13_AGAT.tar flash with ODIN or Mobile ODIN.
FH23
This repack comes with AGAT tREC_v0.2.2
1.FH23_AGAT.tar flash with ODIN or mobile ODIN Mirror
2. FH23_AGAT.zip flash in recovery. Mirror
I have tested this repack with my tFF18 rom and it works.
So far no problems.
Hope you guys will enjoy it.

I don't see why it would not work with new build.
It's an ICS and it's 4.0.4. So there is no reason for custom kernel not to work with it.

Are you really asking about battery life after fresh flash and less than few hours use?
Lol damn AGAT when you coming over to the GSIII forum bro?
Not to sound like a douche but yes. I reboot twice after a fresh flash and charge to max. Then I use my phone like normal for an hr meaning screen is on and with 3g. At the end of one hr its usually sitting pretty at 80%. Sometimes 83 or sometimes 75 but that gives me an idea. I get about 10% drain per 30min on 3g with good signal thats my start point. This is how it was on gb and now on ics it has matched

Well in last 3 hours I did reboot my bout 6 times.
I was on this kernel little bit over an hour. Did some test. Run some programs.
Other than that when I'm home I'm on my laptop trying stuff. Phone is next to me for testing mostly.
My battery tests are running from time I go sleep (never put my phone on charge over night) till next day when I come home.
I know kernel is somewhat good if over night I'm loosing not more than 5-6% battery.

If you are currently on aosp jb follow the instructions in the video and update profile and prl. If you get decent 4g in your area then you will get decent 4g on any rom that has 4g working.

Are you referring to FI03 modem? That will not help, this is sounds like the "ics 4g bug" that some people get (me included), there's no fix yet for aosp. You'll need to go to a FI03 based rom, or gingerbread.
What rom are you running? Do they include the radios or I dont have to do anything since I already have that modem flashed? I looked and I couldnt find any AOSP FI03 roms. All that are FI03 are touchwiz (blahhh)

Nah, once you switch to CM9 you'll lose the fix. The fix is part of the FI03 rom and maybe kernel. Just try out the rom, update profile and prl. If you still get bad 4G speed then it could be the area you're in or the phone itself.
Thanks a lot. I almost bricked it (odin stopped mid process because im on WIN8) but managed to recover. My 4g speeds picked up but are nowhere near my EVO 4g. It is usable now though so thanks a lot and I will experiment some more later :laugh:

You can use agats kernel to get root, once you have root you can flash whatever rom and kernel you want as long as its for the EPIC 4G TOUCH and is compatible with the rom. Im running the BLU KUBAN rom on my BOOST MOBILE EPIC 4G TOUCH. It comes with the KUBAN kernel, and I can confirm 3G,4G work flawless so does GPS and every thing else. hope this helps you
As said before, if my simple to follow guide is followed, you can be rooted in no time without much hassle, even the most novice user can do it.

It shouldn't matter. In my personal testing and daily usage, Agats is safe for flashing most ICS ROM's, but some say that when it comes to AOSP or AOKP to use the EL26.
If you want to be extra safe use the EL26 CWM kernel.
Ok. So Im on Blu Kuban now. Its going to take some getting use to. But what is THE best ROM for the E4GT? Best battery life, like the #1 option for users of this phone.

I reckon that there is no such thing as a "best ROM". I personally don't like blu kuban as it has the damn blu kuban wording everywhere like if I'm playing blues clues an a lot of menus are dark, making it impossible to see unless highlighted. See how easy it is for others to have different views of ROM's when it comes to picking a best ROM?
I suggest you take a look around for a ROM in your taste. There is lots of ROM's to choice from and in the end only you can decide which works best for you with a mixture of tweaking. OFC lets also remember that certain applications you use may affect your experience with battery life on ROMs.
