Which one do u perfer guys ? Both are awesone and cant make a decision Battery life ? Hotplug efficiency? Performance ?

I'm getting crazy good battery life and performance on lean kernel and AOKP. Franco is good too, but I think I'm getting much better battery life on lean.

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

I've tried both for a great while. Battery life with interactivex on lean and hotplug on franco lean is definitely better, on my phone Lean runs a little bit better. on my phone.

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.

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

What's your favorite kernel, considering battery life, speed, OC/UV options, and stability? I've been alternating between leankernel and franco.kernel and can't decide which I prefer. If you choose other, specify what your favorite is!
Trinity and lean are my favourites

I am using the kernel that come with CM9 beard off of Linux and I love it, I am getting better battery life using this than Franco's, but I'm not sure if you can just the kernel, I think you need to be on the ROM as well...

i've tried lean,franco,glados and trinity..
both lean and trinity are my favorite, but for now i think i'll stick with lean
trinity for smoothness and super fast kernel
lean is for fast kernel + good batt
the latest trinity kernels...ofv and flatline are equal and in some cases better batt life then lean...without sacrificing performance...
I just recently purchased a Galaxy Nexus and have only tried out Franco Kernel. I get an average of 3.5 hours screen time while underclocked. After I record some accurate results, I think I'll switch to Lean Kernel in order to see which Kernel gives me the best battery life.

My thoughts exactly, although I've had my GNex for over 2 months.
Why not try both yourself for a while? Just flash them and see what suits you best... For me I started with Franco and just sticked to it as it works perfectly for my needs but I can't compare the both.
Tried Franco kernel, 17.2 give me the best battery life with slightly more than 3.5 hrs on screen time, for M1 and M2, can only last slightly less than 3 hrs on screen. Anyone also experience this?
Anyone here tried GlaDos kernel and have any reviews?
GLaDOS review
GLaDOS has both speed and good battery life. It's more or less based off the theory that processing stuff at higher speed will allow your phone to get more quickly back to sleep (not the same as "Deep Sleep"; the C4 rest state happens concurrently, even when you're on 1200 mhz).
But the only way to see if this pans out is to use it. You should try it with your daily usage and see if it works for you.*
For example, I find it has the best battery life for playing music with screen off (3% per hour speakerphone, 5-6% on bluetooth) and matches [or beats] the others for stress-usage (screen on, 8-10 apps in background gets around 20%). I haven't tried intermediate usage, because frankly, I don't use only a few apps when I'm using, so that's a gap to fill I guess. Note: streaming music is apparently a problem, judging from recent reports.
*Use BetterBatteryStats or an app with series history; the graph should become linear partway and that's when you know to take numbers.
Yeah but how do you backup your default kernel?
I just installed Franco kernel, why would one install lean kernel? what's the difference between two anyway?
I think the answer to this question is, 'it depends'.
I think the ROM/Kernel combination has an impact on performance and battery life.
For example: previously while running bixie's stock and AndroidME, I had great performance with Trinity. However, on AOKP, trinity delivered poor battery life. With AOKP, I found Franco to be a better match.

OK, you're right I didn't really gave you enough information on my end)
I'm using stock Jelly Bean 4.1.1 OTA, I did rooted my phone so that I can install different kernel
I'm using few social (facebook,google+,foursquare,etc) apps, some messengers (what'sup,kik,google voice)
as far as data goes I'm using Juice Defender and that helps me a bit with my data on/off
but what _REALLY_ kills my battery is screen, in the best case scenario I was able to archive a little over 2h of screen time and in most cases it's ~1:30h
i'm using standard battery in my phone.
my goal is _SOMEHOW_ increase screen time
that's why I'm trying out franco kernel)

Tried trinity and faux and Franco with AOKP and I find Franco to be best with AOKP. I have it overclocked to 1.3GHz and no undervolt, since I have smart reflex on
Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel
Ive tried a few and they alll seem to be fairly decent. I woud like one that has good battery life and good performance when I need it. I also wanted it to be stable and have no random restarts or dropped signals.
I would like to know what you think is the best kernel for me that gives me these; I dont need any of the extra features, just good battery life and performance.
THanks in advance.
I've tried different ones and the best one that works for me is the franco.kernel and Eclipse rom. Simple yet great on battery live.
If it helps, I'm using GSM Liquid Smooth ROM. The ROM came with the latest Franco nightly but it doesn't seem as good on battery life as MS4 was. Is there a huge difference between wheatley and interactive?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Yes. Wheatley lets your phone idle when you are using it for less intensive tasks.
Also, There is no best rom or kernel. No one but YOU can determine what is best for YOUR usage and YOUR device.. Just try them all.

But wheatley seems.. not finished, to say the least.
I have an acceptable battery time with the latest GLaDOS kernel, with standard clock frequencies and using interactive as governor. That governor seriously has never failed me.
According to your experience, which of these two kernel is better for stand by and on screen time please?
Thanks

I would say there's not much difference in battery life but I do find Franco is buggy with random reboots and slow reactions every now and then. Faux performance wise is spot on quick fairly good battery but downside is wen playing a game with decent graphics it heats up quite quick.

franco hasnt updated his kernel for at least a month. used to really love his kernels, but seems as if hes losing interest in us unless some new stuff from htc comes out. On the other hand, faux is really giving us spetacular stuff with his kernels atm, try it.
Press THANKS if I helped.
simple answer mate..faux...franco has always been a sammy boy and by the looks of things his project looks dead and buried...wished i never got his app but anyway...faux for me and hopefully show-p can fix the issue with s2w and there you have two good kernels..not much of a variety really but faux all the way for me or stock
+1 for faux, especially for gaming with his GPU OC

no need for OC, perfomance is over 200% in games on Faux
all you need is to tweak the governor values, check the performance guide in my signature
we have GPU unlocked back to 520mhz
all the drivers update from the Nvidia linux 3.1 repo
all the drivers and fixes from HTC latest sources
Heat is reduced away from the touch screen
rock stable as stock!
UV is allowed -100mV is the maximum allowed on Tegra3
screen on times around 3 hours
in other words, THE kernel for the One X, also faux is always around he doesn't disappear

I'm not really interested in gaming. Am I right in saying the screen on time on stock is about 4 hours so the battery is better on stock?

I'm using Franco R12 after faux 005b1 and I'm very impressed by the low consumption of this kernel. It's maybe a little less smooth but I'm not a big gamer so it's enough for me.
I'm waiting for the next faux kernel which always have good surprises like the 005b1...
which kernel is the best in terms gaming and browsing. basically my main concern is the battery life. i am using ARHD 8.!. i occasionally play games like stick cricket, temple run, fruit ninja etc. small games. few minutes of browsing. maybe 30mins. please suggest me a better kernel. will do if its none of faux or franco.
I find faux kernels to be very good at performance, but not excellent at battery life. Franco i have used only once, and found it a little buggy, but decent performance. In my opinion, stock kernel is the best one, especially for battery life (I'm not a hardcore gamer).
I've been using Faux 010m for some time now and I find to be very stable and offers great performance. I really don't notice battery life that much, but in general, my battery time is decent.
So yeah, +1 faux
I'm using the Verizon GNex running CM10 Kang with GLaDOS Kernel, and to put it simply, my battery life sucks. It drains 50% in about 2/3 hours.
How can I make it last longer???

I get horrendous battery life on just about every rom and kernel I try that's just a gnex I guess, that being said air kernel has significantly increased my battery life on any rom I use it on. Settings I use are 1200 max 230 min smartass2 governor and sio scheduler

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
