i want no choppiness in scrolling and great speed. with good battery life? hows bullet compared to faux?
Try them all and see what you like. Personally, I'd start off with faux123's kernel though. He ported over some of the skyrocket kernel and it's very smooth.
does faux or bullet have the ability to make the button lights up for notification?
I'm pretty sure both do. I know fauxs does. Also I tried them all faux123 is the best by far he used some of the skyrockets mdp drivers and there is no lag and scrolling is butter smooth. u need his most recent beta I'll see if I can find it bln works (lights) and battery great
Here... Wipe cache and dalvik then flash

Fauxs was incredible, incredulous actually how smooth it is. He OC'd the 2d and 3d to Max all the time so its always smooth. Battery obviously takes a hit because of this.
Buy anyway, faux 007b5 is crazy good.

On faux 07bv4 and the battery drain is quite high... about 6% every half hour.
Probably will go to v5 or bullet for now... but yeah its butter
Edit. Also something weird when using fauxclock. My min and Max are set to 1.6ghz... even when I drag the min down to 384...
Anyone know why this is?

Holy crap scrolling is smooooooooth. Better than my desktop lol
what kernel works best for beastmod? ima migrate to there because the rom is faster and better on batt life. and mms is perfect on that rom

So, there you have it. Aside from stability, my main concern is conserving battery life. In fact, I'd sacrifice the 30FPS unlock to conserve 3+ hours of battery life if need be.
Which is better for stability and battery life in your opinion.
Also, please post what ROM you are currently using.
Thanks!
PS - Let me know if you'd like a new poll option added. (Nevermind, apparently can't tweak that now.)

Haven't tried ffolkes yet I can say I got 22 hours out of fresh 26 with underclock while screens off
I have used DC, Baked Snack, and fresh. I think fresh is the most stable of the three. DC with JIT enabled causes reboots at times, but they are rare. DC with JIT disabled is pretty stable. Baked Snack sometimes gave me odd problems, but it is pretty fast.
I think I had best battery life with DC, about 35 hours. My brother reportedly used his phone for two days straight playing games without having to charge it. He uses DC with DCConfig set to Battery Saver. This was with an undervolted kernel without using overclock. Had to switch from undervolted at a later point because it caused HUGE amounts of stability issues. (Ffolkes' kernel)
Fresh with autostarts is pretty good with battery life. I haven't tried the latest version. Using a perflock disabled kernel and setCPU works wonders for fresh and battery life.
Baked Snack was an odd one. My battery life was inconsistent. All I can say with that one.
My thoughts on the three ROM's that Jykinturah mentioned are the same. Using DC 3.2.3 with ffolkes using set cpu, I charge my phone about as often as my girlfriend who has a blackberrry: every 2 days.
ffolkes' Higher Frame Rate Kernel
is this the 5.2 ?

in the ffolkes thread there is a link to an app called EvoSwitch. It allows you to change a value called T2 (it has something to do with frequency I guess) which for some people (including me, with an 002 bought on evo release day) actually allows the fps to change.

Thanks,man! I will try this over the weekend. I had tried some of ffolkes kerenels previously with no success. This might do the trick.
so which kernel is supposed to have the best batterly life?
I just put on fresh toast. I get a good 49fps
So far so good. to early to tell about battery life tho
Thats what im looking for

James Bond kernel.
I've seen what franco has done with the nexus s kernel, realiable, smooth, and constant updates, it was always my choice. So as soon as i get my GN its the first kernel i'm going to flash and hopefully it won't ever disappoint
same for me. I have a freaking good battery life on lean but better performance with Franco

its Imoseyon kernel on Rootzwiki. btw, Ive tried both Lean and Franco kernel, I still prefer Ezekeel Glados kernel though. amazing smooth and friendly battery life.
I was using franco's kernel, but with all the hourly updates lately, it spooked me a little, so now Im on trinity inferno512 kernel, and wow games run fluid with the GPU at 512mhz.
im still debating... im jumping back and forth but i need to stick to one for a week and try it out!
leankernel has updates just as much as franco... i say thats a good thing
i say take a week long test and run some benchmarks with each of those kernels, take a screenshot, and come back with what you like.
Im working on that now.
GLaDOS is by far the best kernel for my phone. No lags whatsoever and four hours of screen on time with the stock battery
I'm starting to lean toward glados myself. I've had a lot of issues with Franco's 14.x kernels.
I've also found lean kernel to be a bit choppy. Shadow gun runs really choppy w lean kernel, but ultra smooth w either Franco and glados. It could be that I'm not using the correct governor though.
I have tried both back and forth. AS of last update I've tried franco 14.4 (deep sleep ~50%) which is good but has a much better battery life (deep sleep at 91%) on hotplug of lean 1.8.0.
+1 for lean
I have used lean kernel for a while now. I used to get lots of lock screen lag with Franco. Which I don't with lean.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Im on Leankernel 1.7.3 right now. Used Francos way before, but after Version 13.1 i started to get battery drain issues. So i switched over to Glados which seemed to have a good battery life to me, but was very choppy overall on Wheatley Gov'.
Lean is the best for me at the moment, almost 4 Hours Screen on time isnt a problem for me, i use the build in InteractiveX Governour, with some heavy undervolting. Data, Sync, Wifi , ... everything enabled. Screen Brightness ~ 35%
I gonna try Lean 1.8.0 Later that day. But i have to admit that Franco's next upcoming with Turtle Governor might be an interessting choice either.
For me, both devs are doing a really great job, both Kernels are good.
I've used three different Franco kernels and had freezing and reboot issues with all three of them. Never had an issue with Lean Kernel.
I don't care what kernel I have. If:
1.At the end of the day on my normal usage phone has less than 60% of battery left it means that the next day I won't manage
2. I have less than 60% I have to recharge overnight
3. Phone can get me throughout the day on heavy usage ...
Don't need any fancy kernels if they don't tick the first box
Edit:
Just tried lean kernel and its way to slow. Scrolling in text app or anywhere really isn't even half as smooth as Franco ....
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
After trying many kernels... I always come back to Faux123's kernel (Currently 011b10u). It's just such great battery life... idle battery drain is just a horizontal line on the battery graph for hours. LOVE IT. (P.S. Ultra-liquid-smoothness too). http://rootzwiki.com/topic/12512-kernelgn-lte3017ics4023uvgpucpu-occifsslqbotgfiopsv010jan-17/page__st__930

For me its KA21 with Arcknight 3.3 Stock Kernel.
Really smooth, better battery than i experienced stockwise...
try ICS_anzu_KTG tuned_V1.41: governor interactiv
actually battery drain more depends on the kernels..for best battery life stock kernel is the best
Guys note that lad has Pro not Arc. Stock is usually the worst, or better - default gauge for custom ROMs. I've been watching cyanogenmod discussion for a while, usually users feedback on battery life varied from version to version; for tweaked versions can be said that battery life is the same as in stock while the performance is 20% better. I don't know about MIUI.
(Out of your question, the best for battery life are Ultima ROM and Buttermilk ROM which are optimized for battery life and battery life is notably better there; with Buttermilk and low usage you can do as much as 4 days without charging - worth for outdoor trips. Ultima ROM when idle eats like 0,6% per hour.)
Stock rom with stock kernal had the best battery life... but also lags the most.
I recomend arconium ICS with stock kernal for a balaced experiance...!!!

Well if you game a lot compared to someone who doesn't then obviously ones battery will last longer than the other, so there's a few factors that can be taken into account in regards to battery life.

well my method of testing battery drain(i guess everybody tests the same way) is only on standby..how much time does it take to move 1% down when the phone is not touched for an hr or 2...in exceptional cases battery will drain fast while using 3G in one kernel but lil slow on other kernel..
again my point is kernel is more responsible for battery life of the phone rather than a ROM..

Then you need to take syncing into account, if yours is on and mine is off on the same kernel then yours may drian a bit quicker than mine, which goes back to my point of how a user uses their Phone. I don't think it's a black and white issue.

yea dude.. i get it..my point was simple..people were talking about best roms for battery life.. i just said kernel plays an important role in deciding that..that was my only point..i wasnt arguing with anyone..and testing of battery drain at standby means with data off,bluetooth off, gps off..hence syncing of account wont come into picture
I'm not arguing, just trying to make a point also.

Yes I know and sorry, the last two ROMs I was refering to are GB. However, Riyal is working on Ultima ICS ROM and it already exists in alpha version! See this post with download link Hopefully the ROM will have similar advantages as has GB Ultima ROM over GB stock ROM, which means better battery life, better wi-fi reception, improved camera and so on.

So far Arcknight kernel has quite the reputation for good battery life. IMO, for roms i find CM9 from FreeXperia project quite awesome but then there's an issue with the battery stats and brightness for now so wait for the next release i guess. for GB try arconium 8.2. still mostly its based on kernel and also the governor.

I don't think that there is much difference between Custom rom and Adroid versions, I noticed that JB seems to be more of a power drain hog than ICS.. But as usual it mainly depends on your personal usage and the main drain source is (then) always the screen.
Lowering the screen brightness will have more effects than kernels and custom roms

curious to see which ROM you experienced the best battery life with. I am not a big flasher but used darkside v8 and CMX and seems like v8 got better battery life. Mainly a web browser, email, pandora. not big on games. what has your experience been like so far?
Nothing wrong with stock ICS (if you tune it right). No need for CPU sleepers scripts or something like that if you keep you phone clean from sloppy written apps.

You right. I was experimenting those days. Besides it was 30 min per day - 15 min of screen time (checking email and reading news) and 15 min of voice call.
This test also shows that there are no rough apps on my phone which could eat battery on background. And the ROM is pretty stable. What would be your results in similar scenario?
If you have read my posts - one day I had 7:40 hours of screen time (was reading ebook) and had 40% battery left. This is another type of usage.
So power consumption is vastly different depending on type of usage... if say you are looking YouTube through 4G your phone will be dead in 2-3 hours...
I have posted results of power consumption during different type of usage so one can compare more objectively and not against "OMG this ROM/app are so good" statements.
Don't have any stats to prove it other than experience but after a few hours on Jedi Mind Trick I can already tell it's being great on battery compared to any AOSP based ROM and it's SNAPPY fast! :thumbup:
For some reason it reminds me of the Darkside GB based ROM Digital Warfare (this thing was crazy good on battery!).
