Look for gingertiny kernel, or incredikernel. You can find both here http://www.incredikernel.com/?page_id=10, along with incredicontrol and app for tweaking kernel settings.

thanks for your answer! one last question which of the 2 is more stable gingertiny kernel or incredikernel? Both are installed recovery is true?

I only use gingertiny and havent tried incredikernel, but i hear others say there using it all the time. And yes they are flashed thru recovery.

[Q] Overclocking issue

I couldnt find any information to help my issue and i have been looking for a while. Months ago i was really trying to OC my phone. No matter what kernel or rom I used I could never get it over the default clock speed. I finally found one rom EVO.ZONE.RED.1.20.11 That would allow me to OC. In setcpu I could go over the default clock speed (i dont know how high off the top of my head). Is there any reason why that one rom allows me to OC but no others do? If so I want to try and duplicate it with other roms. Thanks.
OC ability is determined by the kernel. The ROM you were using had a custom kernel with that feature baked in. if you want to OC just flash a new kernel, but make sure it's compatible with whatever ROM you're using

Yeah... i undersand that. I tried multiple roms and kernels with no luck. Just that one Rom. Trying to figure out why, rather than flash kernel after kernel.

try a netrachy-toastmod Kernel that allows for some overclocking also you might have to disable Perflock By clicking menu then selecting Perflock Disabler if you are using a sense based rom.

[Q] Do you usually flash a kernal before or after the rom?

Hi guys,
It's been so long since I have flashed a new kernal, is it better to flash them before or after you flash a rom?
are there any recommendations you fine XDA members have for kernals if I want to use it with the latest AOKP
Thanks for the help!
Since most roms come with their own kernel, I flash the Rom first, then whichever kernel I plan on using.

boot into recovery.
wipe wipe wipe
flash rom
flash gapps is needed
if want, flash desired kernel
reboot.
wait for all apps to sync,
if needed, reboot into recovery and flash a theme.

Kernel is always after the rom.
Rom's install a kernel themselves that will completely overwrite any kernel you had set.
I use LeanKernel. And stick to the stable versions.
But that's my preference. You'll have to flash a few to decide.
Kernel testing itself is a bit of a bore. You need to test each kernel for at least a full battery cycle to see how it responds for you.
Also keep in mind that you can tweak kernel settings like color control, sound control, undervolting, clock speeds, and cpu governors if you want more customization.
After the rom ... roms contain kernels so it overwrites any kernel installed already ...
Don't forget to wipe your Davlik Cache before flashing your kernel
Please Suggest a good order
custom Rom
Super Su
Gapps
custom kernel
or whichever order is good after ROM..?!!

GREETINGZ JUBA
Would just like 4 u 2 know that I most sincerely appreciate the knowledge that u put down in ur post, I found it 2 be most insightful & madly helpful. Now, as for that kernel tweaking u mentioned, wut is the tweaking process?, & where is the kernel located?, & lastly, how would I navigate 2 it'z location? Thx a mill in advance my lady peace. P.S. Luv the name.

Can anyone tell me what Kernel I am On?

I flashed the wicked red rom... and that is the default kernel it came with... i know it is Trinity.. but what version?
Should i flash another kernel for better performence?
Thank You

You might be on Alpha 29 or a lower version based on the timestamps on Morfic's site:
http://www.derkernel.com/ics-d2.php
I am on A43, I think A37 introduced tweaks in color, I would recommend upgrading to that atleast.
Make sure you choose the proper kernel, ICS or CM.

How would i know the proper kernel i need, ics or cm... is it if i have a cm rom than i need a cm kernel?

Yea you got it, CM roms need CM kernels, Stock roms need Stock kernels.
If you are on the Wicked Rom, it is based off the Stock Rom, so download the stock kernel:
TGST-STOCK-ICS-ALPHA43b <-----See the difference on how he names the file, download this one
TGST-CM9-ICS-ALPHA43b

[Q] [Kernel] Best Kernel for a stock rom

Hi,
Any suggestion for a best Kernel for the stock rom on WFS?
Any kernel that would provide me good performance and battery life while on data
Thank you!

for best battery consumption stock kernel is best i guess.
but if you want overclocking kernel,ext4 support cake v1.4 is best for u.

I would just like to verify, if I use a kernel that supports ext4 eventhough I am on a stock rom would it work? I am sorry I came from the Note and I found it more challenging to MOD this phone.
Thank you

yeah ofcourse.filesystem works by kernel so if your kernel supports ext4 then your rom will supports ext4.so you can use internal memory tweaks which needed ext4 file system:good:

(Q) Which Kernel?

Which kernel is best and most stable to use with stock ROM as I'm new to this device just seeing what other users opinions are that have been using it for some time.
Also does Odin have to be used for flashing is can it be done threw the standard procedure of going into recovery and flashing via install zip?
Thanks in advance

Most stable is the kernel by arco68 made for rooted stock roms.
Yes, some kernels can be flashed via CWM provided they are the correct format.

Would you be able to link that kernel thread as the 1 I have found closest to that was 1 based on arco68 kernel.
Thanks again for the help and responses much appreciated.

Optional: Flash GT-I9195_Kernel_v1.zip to use a custom stock kernel, which might fix battery drain for some.

I noticed that before as I used that guide for rooting but was looking for a kernel with a few more features but if this is the best to date I'll stick with that, thanks again.

You're looking for stability so that's the most stable.
I'm personally using f4ktion's 1.3.6 but that version is currently only for AOSP roms. Sticking with Samsung stock roms you only have f4ktion's 1.3.0 to play with but some have reported that its features (BLN) are not working.
Vikinger Kernel is based on arcos modified stock kernel with the extra of bln-feature. Should be as stable as arcos. Never faced unstability and I am using it since release

Are you talking about his kernel? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47893414

yes
My favourite would be F4ktion's, and I spent the last week on it.
Unfortunately the wifi seems to be broken - works at first, but sooner or later (typically within a few hours) something happens, phone becomes hot, wifi can't be switched off, and everything becomes laggy.
Battery will last two-three hours once that happens and the phone will blame wifi for 90% of battery usage.
Only reboot fixes it, until it happens again.
During the last week I was experimenting with different solutions such as using stock's configuration files (the stuff under etc/firmware/wlan/prima) as well as trying to replace the prima kernel module from other kernels. Nothing helped.
(well, most of my attempts made wifi not work lol, the few that worked didn't fix the problem)
If anyone has any ideas what else to try, it would be great -- the kernel was great otherwise (after lowering minimal frequency down to 160-ish MHz battery prediction exceeded 6 days, and that's before I undervolted anything).
In the meantime I'm on Vikinger's kernel - not because I use its features but because installing it was the easiest way to get wifi working again,
Does Vikinger's custom kernel support performance control where you can change clock support etc?

No
No clock change beyond what stock has, no undervolting.
It doesn't have any interesting governors either.
like I said. It's just arcos kernel with the extra of bln support. you could have get that information from the first post of the vikinger kernel thread. all features are mentioned there
