Faux Kernel, do you use it? Why? - HTC One X

Just want to know why some of you use Faux kernel. It seems to be the most mentioned one , at least from what i've read so far.
On the latest base roms, is it more battery as well as performance efficient in your opinion? Any other reasons you use it?
I've only had faux kernel on my HoX for not even a day so far so it's hard for me to be the judge and i'm interested. Thanks

With Faux's kernel you'll have better performances than stock kernel, but stock has better stability and battery life.

It's because faux's kernel has the latest nVidia drivers for Tegra 3, as well as a GPU overclock for better gaming performance I've been using faux lately, and still testing battery usage on normal daily usage.

[Q] bullet kernel or faux kernel

Running Juggernaut 4.1.
Which one saves more battery? Bullet kernel or faux kernel
From personal experience, flashing the newest version of the synergy has increased my battery life to levels greater than both the bullet kernel and the faux kernel. Additionally, if you want the best battery life, go with Bombaridier v3.0 - truly amazing battery.
I agree. I get amazing battery with synergy. Faux's kernel is really good, but one of his, the ultimate one overclocks the gpu. That causes faster battery drain.

Franco vs Trinity

Hi.. Maybe inapropriate topic but :
According to your experience, which one is better kernel in global ?
For battery and global ?
I hope that kernel devs of both kernels are not insulted with this topic.
Thanks in advacne
In MY experience Franco gave me the most battery life and stability. My phone loves Franco(CDMA). Ones not better then the other. Just depends which one your phone loves better.
Actually i love both kernels and changing them time after time. While Franco kernel feels a bit snappier, Trinity gives me better battery life and seems to be a bit more stable.
IMO both kernels are great but I prefer faux123's kernel.
I prefer trinity over any other kernel out there.
best performance and battery life for me
btw I'm using the one with 1382 cpu, 512 gpu for cm9 kang(any kernel).

Taking into account a combination of kernels and drivers, which rom has higher processing performance?

IMO
Well it depends on a lot of factors and what is important to you:
Best overall performance - cm10.1 with stock kernel. But games will feel sluggish but system performance is fantastic.
Best gaming performance - stock ICS any based on v20f.
Best battery performance - cm10.1 + wind kernel or any of the v20 stock ICS + wind kernel.
Best stability performance: Gingerbread - there are phones out there that for what ever reason start have reboot issues with stock ICS or cm10.x but if yours isn't one of the few with these issues stock ICS any v20.
Overclocking will always impact these but stability may suffer along with battery life and longevity of the phone.

For Gaming Use With The Wind Stock Rom Kernel + ICS ICS Adreno Drivers + Overclock Using em 1.62 Who Will I be a good performance?
The highest benchmarks on Antutu I have ever gotten was with HO!NO!'s Full Throttle CM9. For the longest time this was the ONLY stable custom ROM for the Nitro and to this day, it still in the top 3 for many categories (stability, performance, benchmarks, battery life).
I've tried the stock V20f ROMs, latest CM10.1, PAC-ROM, and ran them all with stock and Wind kernel. The highest Antutu score I got outside of HO!NO!'s CM9 was about 6,000. On HO!NO!'s CM9 I regularly approach 9,000 after slimming the ROM down.

I agree with you when it came to that benchmark. However that doesn't translate into real world performance. When it comes to battery life the combination of wind/cm10.1 blows the doors off of full throttle.
I think the use of benchmarks as a measure of performance either on a computer or a phone will ALWAYS lead people into making bad decisions. For example the ROM that does the worst in gaming benchmarks stock ICS v20f gives you the best gaming performance. Go figure.

kernel for best battery life

From common opinion, which is the best custom kernel for battery life?
The likely consensus will probably be Flash kernel. However, Ex, Sultan, Snoke and Kirst are all very good as well. Hard to say until you try them
I second on flash kernel or ex
I don't believe any of the kernels provide much of a boost in battery life. Android has that down pretty well and there isn't much room for improvement. Now lots of good features add....they still do that.
They are all good on battery...try some and decide for yourself based on your set up and usage.

Best custom kernel for OP5T as of now

Anyone knows which kernel is the best ( In terms of stability, battery life, and performance) for 5t as for 2019. So far I only experienced FrancoKernel, Blu_spark, Renderzenith. Based on my research and as I've talked to some people. Mostly they recommend Renderzernith kernel. Any recommendations?

If you want best battery life than stock, if you want best performance than RenderZenieth, Franco not updated and have a wakelock that doesn't let device sleep, Blu spark is more laggy than stock kernel and doesn't even more battery life. Honestly kernel development is very slow now.

Imho currently stock kernel is the best for me - all custom kernels seem to be problematic currently like frequencies locking up (cores not sleeping, clocking up or down).
perf kernel (aka stock). π-kernel was good for a while but development seems to have stopped for the time being. Hmp based kernels (e.g., π-kernel or SimpleGX) have given me better battery life and fewer lag issues than some of the EAS kernels (e.g., RenderZenith). Some people swear that EAS is better, but IMHO that only holds true if the rom has been optimized for it, which stock OOS has not.
