Reason is I flashed Perseus, and believe it or not this kernel lags, in whatever settings I tried to tweak. Only changing the governor to performance removes that lag/stuttering. Thus asking, will there be any problem if I use Performance as a regular governor?
I could move to another kernel, but this one has the most important features I need, speaker and headphone volume boost, led fade support, and the most imp yet simple exFAT support.

If You use Performance Governor as regular your CPU Frequency are alwaxy maximum and batterie will be very fast empty
I recently flashed Perseus Kernel on Omega ROM then I overclocked it at 1.8Ghz which was mind blowing!! There must be a prob with your ROM cz Perseus never lagged in my phone.
BTW I found that the default gov is much better and balanced than the Performance gov.
Well I don't care about battery life anymore, but I won't compromise with smoothness.
Actually, no, there is no problem with the Rom, well yes there is one, it's too damn smooth and fluid. When I was on Omega, which is basically not any fast or fluid than stock Rom I didn't notice any lag, because the Rom was laggy as well, but with A.R.H.D the lag is very prominent. Only an A.R.H.D user can feel the situation actually.

No problems at all that is why the option is available, Unless your worried about your battery life.
Performance governor won't necessarily reduce lag. Also it will make the phone super hot.

I'm currently running mik3d and in my opinion its the best 3.0 rom out there at the moment. But what's the benefit of using a kernel other than stock? And any suggestions for kernels and how do I flash a custom kernel? Thanks in advance
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I am running MikG (not 3D) but I can address the reasons for running a custom kernel.
- Overclocking: Custom kernels will often allow you to change the max cpu clock to improve performance when you need it.
- Underclock: They also allow you to lower the max clock and the min clock if your aim is to try and improve battery life.
- More Governors to choose from: They will often have other cpu clock governors that can be used to balance battery life vs performance (see here).
- Undervolting: Some kernels will use various schemes to undervolt the CPU as another means to save power.
- HDMI Mirroring: The stock kernel will output a display to the HDMI only from the photo gallery app. The custom kernels can allow full display mirroring to the HDMI. This allows games, netflix, etc to be viewed on the big screen.
- Memory optimizations
There may be more reasons... these are the one from the top of my head.
You flash a kernel much the same way as you do a ROM. From Recovery you would wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache before flashing the ZIP of the kernel. That is it. Some kernels then allow adjustment with programs such as SetCPU.
There are a few kernels that support Gingerbread Sense roms (such as Mik 3D). You can look at Freedom, ChopSuey, Golden Monkey, Poonsense. I am running Freedom and it works well for me.
I just tried adjusting my CPU after installing freedom and my phone froze lol

Some phones do not like to be overclocked. That is normal. You just have to find out what your limits are. Mine actually does not like to be run as low as 128Mhz. When I do that I get boot loops once in a while.
Regarding the newest doomkernel, is the xLoud working for you guys??
No, pretty sure it was confirmed it was the new firmware that broke xloud, not the kernel.
However, I'm not sure if 4.0.2.A.0.42 has this issue or not, I haven't updated yet.
It seems to me that the volume has increased from the last firmware, regardless of xloud, so it doesn't bother me.
yea, it sure is louder I noticed, but not as loud as I remembered lol..
Btw, do you experience any laggings when playing games such as Backstab HD? Mine is lagging pretty badly from time to time....

Try changing the I/0 scheduler to noop
It's still lagging for me =(
What's the difference between those profiles? I use the default governor.. should I change to something else?

I mean the I/O (Input/Output) scheduler not the CPU Governer You can use no frills CPU control to set it

I did that in the nofrills already.. even overclocked to 1.5ghz but still lags=(

Can I use this even on stock rom? I have some laggy games too..
Yea you can use it on stock rom.. But it didn't help my case at all though..
Hmm, updated to the latest generic rom but still didn't solve my lagging problems
xLoud's definitely working for me with Firmware 4.0.2.A.0.42, and DooMKernel 5v2. I haven't had even the slightest bit of lag either (once the bloatware was removed of course), in fact I find it's the fastest firmware yet for me. Or maybe it's all DooMKernel that's making it speed by. Either way, no problems to be noted.
Installed it but dont have the voltages tab like on my SGT. Only available tabs are General, Device Info and About.
Do I need to do anything else for it to give the voltages adjustment options?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app
Are you using a custom kernel? Stock kernel doesn't allow voltage or clock control.
Personally I am using Perseus kernel (by AndreiLux) , it comes with STweaks which allow you to control a wide range of settings : voltages, CPU and GPU clocks, governors, audio tweaks.. and it closes the recently discovered exynos exploit.
I guess that is the reason! I am on stock kernel.
Any other kernel suggestions? I am quite quite happy with my note performance in almost every way so wanted to play with voltages for curiosity reason only. If I flash a custom kernel I still want to maintain the stability of stock without need for any fancy stuff.

I am a happy camper with RedPill v1.0. But this surely depends on your personal taste, there are quite a few others as well.
Does anyone have any recommended kernel settings they'd like to share? I've been changing things around a little but I'm too afraid to make any big differences as I don't want to ruin anything. Any recommended GPU clock settings would also be appreciated!
Also, I see people mentioning they're overclocking their phone a lot. Does overclocking on this phone mean it constantly stays overclocked until you change the settings back or does it change frequencies as needed to a maximum frequency that you set?

Hey When you OC lets say to 1800mhz . That means your proccesor can Amp up to 1800 mhz if needed. Your phone will always idle when its a sleep. My setting are 100mhz UC and 1800mhz OC. Gpu is also Oc to 640mhz. I use pegasusq for governor and cfq or zen for scheduler. I also use eco mode . I get very good battery life and performance.
Also...what apps are you guy using for this? Seems most use trickster... Wondering if anyone has experience with others.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 4
I would use whatever the developer of your rom/kernel recommends (which is Trickster most of the time)
Anyone know what eco mode does? I've been looking it up but all I've been getting is this guy's kernel that he named 'eco'
Also, for anyone reading this thread with a similar question to mine I'd heavily recommend using Zen over CFQ as a scheduler because it's much smoother and no jitters/stutters (at least in my experience)
Sent from my SGH-I317
I'm curious what Eco does as well. Tried looking it up, but didn't find anything useful.
Trying out Zen...been getting some annoying hangups and jitters with this kernal. UC 100 OC 1704. And FYI...I've used the stock clocks and still got the same lag and lockups and screen freezes. Also tried on demand gov.
Could it be that ZRAM is enabled? Not quite sure the benefits of it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 4
Do you have eco mode enabled? Also, maybe you should look into Seeder. It sounds like it's perfect for the kind of problems you're having. Or you could change your minimum voltage from 100 to 200, I heard 100 can be kind of buggy sometimes

I notice that a game I'm playing tends to lag a little when the phone gets hotter. Does this mean the cpu is throttling and is there a safe way to change it so it doesn't do that?
Sent from my LM-G710 using Tapatalk
Any phone will lower cpu speeds during a thermal event, only way to change it would be to modify the kernel or use root to change the governor to a better optimized/efficient profile.
have you tried the game function in general settings?
Yeah. The game is already at half resolution or whatever. I guess I could mess around with it some more. I did read of a kernel somewhere on here that allows me to mess with the cpu governor, but I don't know if I'll be flashing it or not. Going to do some more reading.
I might check out Lineage 17 to see if that's better, but the Bluetooth thing holds me back.
I play Pubg mobile. I also experienced lags. It is caused by thorttling. Since I rooted the phone and changed CPU governor to conservative or performance I have no lags at all. Games are running smooth as hell.

I tried using root apps to change it and I tried editing it myself. It just keeps going back to default. I do have root.
