My friend asked me to flash cyanogenmod on his play. But when I flashed it, it was very slow. Doomslord kernel, not the ice one. And cm7 from official cm site. Is there something wrong with this setup that causes the extreme slowness? Pls help me.
First try and see if CM lowered the CPU frequency. Go to settings -> cyanogenmod settings -> performance (or something similar) -> CPU settings.
If this isn't the case, try flashing their own kernel or install a nightly build.
Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't it state that cyanogen roms are only compatible with cyanogem kernels? So any other kernels would cause problems.

That's not entirely true. Some kernels can use CyanogenMod sources, but with tweaks, so technically those aren't CyanogenMod kernels. Then there are times where there are very minor bugs while using kernels that aren't CyanogenMod kernels. In many cases, those bugs are negligible, and easily worked around.
So no, there are other kernels that would work with CyanogenMod.
What model of Xperia Play is it? Is it GSM or CDMA? Which specific DooMKerneL was flashed, can you link to the thread?
Can someone link me to that kernel? I'm very lost over here. I've rooted and flashed roms to so many devices but the one is the hardest to date.

I'd like to start using the custom Kernel's but TMK, the Telus variant has specific requirements.
I started looking through some of the Kernel threads to see if a Telus owner chimed in to either ask or confirm compatibility but found that very tedious.
Do you know which custom DHD kernel's work with both CM7 and Telus?
Thanks.
Since nightly CM7 #22 you havnt needed a kernel. Pretty much any kernel for the Inspire/dhd. Everything's been ironed out i believe
Always nandroid before attempting of course you can always go back
I'm coming from an N1.
There a need for a kernel isn't necessarily warranted but found for example iR's CM-specific kernels to have significant benefits over stock CM.

Currently running the latest version of Dark Forest ROM and a slightly too old version of DoomKernel.
I notice that there is some serious performance drops with ICS. Any suggestions on getting this back up to speed? Better ROM to use?
Also, off topic, I haven't been able to find a link to a version of the Beta ROM with WiFi, data, etc enabled and NO OTHER CHANGES. A link would be helpful and I have searched.
Thanks in advance for both requests!
CM9 based roms seem to be the smoothest - AOKP is the best for me. You can try overclocking on darkforest rom and updating your kernel may help alot as well.

Thanks! Been meaning to update the kernel but I guess I'm just lazy. I'll get that done and try your other suggestions later but for now I've got a pile of coursework to do. Already overlocked to 1.4 Ghz but I guess the old kernel may be holding me back. Also is there a CM9 available for R800i that supports the gamepads?
Cheers again!
Touchpads do work in all cm9 roms but they're app specific - some apps allow them to work and some do not, it depends on how the app developer implemented them or so I've read.
Can anybody please compare the three (and possibly other) popular custom ROMs? Thanks!
I think every roms are great and smooth, for example Bionic 2, Kezra VP 1.1, Black Note Hybrid 2nd gen, Bagux project, Kedai, FAW rom, and CM9, AOKP, MIUI V4...

Hmm. If youre referring those 3 as roms, which you probably see in development section, id say nothing much. Miui and aokp are both ported from CM9 which means those 3 are on ICS. The difference though will most likely be seen on how it was modded, themes, tweaked etc.
As alidsd mentioned regarding AOKP, cm9+more customization=AOKP.
Well this is as far as I know. Correct me if im wrong.

now i come across a thread about Kernels now what are this?
there is also 3 types XXLM8 Kernel, DXLM3 Kernel, Cow Kernel...
do i need this to???
what is the difference between kernel and rom?
or do i need them both in my phone?
it says that XXLM8 is best for games...
can you help me by explaining kernels and roms...
and which rom is better? is it CM9 coz MIUI & AOKP is based from CM9? or did MIUI & AOKP fixed the errors CM9 has like camera... in 1 theared it said the camera in CM9 has a problem.. did MIUI & AOKP fixed it????
thank you so much ^_^

You can find in there what is rom and kernel. In choosing kernels, it depends on you, as they say, its a trial and error process. As for me, im using DXLM3, its works perfectly for me. Runs smooth, I havent experienced any lag. But then again, it will depend on you. Try them out and experienced for your self. As for rom, I heared the newly release cm9 alpha 4 is bit buggy and unstable, but im pretty sure it will be fixed soon. But if you really want to experience cm9 go for cm9 aplha 3. Aokp and miui as i mentioned are ported from cm9 but with different mods, and more stable atm.

ok i read the definitions thanx so much..
so i need both Kernel and ROM ^_^
so you are using DXLM3 Kernel what is its benefits based from your exp.?
they say
XXLM8 Kernel (good for games)
Cow Kernel (good battery life span)
DXLM3 Kernel (what benefits?) ^_^
what ROM are you using right now?
MIUI & aokp was ported from CM9 alfa 3 or 4?
based from your trial and error which worked better and no bugs
MIUI, AOKP or Alfa3? i still cant do trial and error coz im still reading how to do it and some of the steps i really dont understand doing.. ^_^

but be careful, you cannot use GB kernels on ICS ROMs and you cannot use ICS kernels on GB ROMs because GB and ICS has different ramdisk, drivers, etc...
as far as i know, kernels that available for GT-I8150 are:
- stock GB kernels (XXLM8, DXLM3, etc)
- CWG GB kernels (OC and non-OC version)
- arco's ICS kernel
usually if you download ROMs here, they also have the kernel included, so you don't have to flash the kernel separately... except if you want to some experiment, you could flash different kernel after flashing the ROM... for example, after you're finished flashing XXLM8 stock GB ROM, you want to experiment with CWG kernel, so you should flash the CWG kernel only after finished flashing the XXLM8 ROM...

Yes you need both kernel and rom. But dont worry about it, if you flash rom, its likely that the developer already updated the kernel of the rom you are going to flash. But of course if you dont feel like it, there is called flashing of kernel on your desired rom. But the problem is, not all kernels are compatible to different roms. So take time to read updates. As for my kernel dxlm3, for me, its fast, smooth, no lags, also good for games though im not avid gamer. Its a stock kernel so its stable and i havent encountered any issues at all.
I havent tried cm9 yet coz I needed the camera. But I did try miui released by alidsd, but the camera as well is not yet fully working so I have to switch back to my stock rom. And the latest released aokp by alidsd is the one Im going to test later on, havent tried it yet coz im busy.
Of course there will be bugs on newly released roms like cm9, miui and aokp since they are still on the process of development. :beer:

Hey folks,
I've been looking to overclock my Xperia Arc (runnin ICS 4.0.4, build: 4.1.B.0.587) and I'm quite the noob at this so I'm looking for answers and advice. From what I gather, I need to install a kernel and I hear there are many options. One of the most popular one seem to be DooMKernel. I'm thinking about using that and I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520654
Now, my question is, is that the most updated thread? Is there a newer updated DooMKernel lying around (that is newer than v5)? It's fairly difficult to navigate the forums and so I have a hard time finding all the right posts.
My next question is, if I were to install CyanogenMod, does it install a new kernel that allows me to overclock or is OS separate from the kernel?
And also, feel free to recommend me any other kernels. Are they all pretty much the same or do some of them have particular enhancements?
Thanks in advance!

1. The Doomkernel you linked have problem with some battery drainage, thanks to not using newest kernel sources (if I remember correctly?) and also that Doomlord haven't updated it at a long time so. Look for some other kernels before that one becomes stable enough!
2. The Cyanogenmod ROM requires it own specially developed kernel which can be found in the zip package of each initial release (CM7 - CM9 - CM10) and it have to be flashed through Fastboot before you are flashing the ROM in recovery. Follow instructions on Cyanogenmod homepage for each installation on your prefered device for more info!
3. If you're on Gingerbread, use Doomlord v22, for some amazing performance / battery and a lot of functions (underclocking, undervolting and some other stuff).
If you're on ICS, use latest Lupus kernel (version 8) - that kernel is a beast in every way and you'll definitely like it, it's stable enough to satisfy even you!
It's some difference between the kernels in speed, stability and performance / smoothness / battery life / functions, yes. You have to check them out yourself to find your own favourite.
Hope my answers helped you!

Yup, CM kernels was created with overclocking and extended performance in mind, hence why Cyanogenmod ROMs are known with expanding the possibilities to some crazy ass performance and level boost (I have only tried CM7 and using it was like driving an Ferrari at 220 km/hour, later versions should be equal in their own specific ways).
Hope you got some useful answer on your question, dude!

I can recommend Sega Rush v3 kernel to use with your currrent or any .587 based custom rom, it can if you so wished be used up to 2ghz,( as could Doomlords V5 ), but be warned and advised to tread carefull with overclocking as you can cause permanent heat damage to, and even kill your phone if you overcook it.
I think the links to Doomlords v5 are down at the moment he is not active with it, so you may struggle to find doomkernel v5 to download, however if you look to the credits in the latest release of Sega v3, you will see him mentioned, take that as a good omen.
PS there are plenty of kernels to choose from, but I would say try to use one that is currently under active development, so that any upgrades / improvements are kept constant.
I can't comment on Cyanogenmods never tried any, but they seem popular enough, and look pretty well supported.You really are spoilt for choice, have fun
