What Kernel Do You Recommend? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Hey Guy,
The title says it all pretty much...
What kernel do you recommend? I want to play games without lag (If thats even possible) or something that can reduce game lag. Thanks!

I have tried, BMC, Lean And KT747. I am going to recommend KT747 as my personal favorite. It has been by far the smoothest kernel to date I have seen. It has both TW and AOSP versions.
Should you choose to go with KT747, follow the guide linked in my signature to get best configuration for the Gaming you fo.

Yes the TW JB Version should do you good. Wicked is Touchwiz I think.

Stable Jellybean ROM for Epic 4G??

Just wondering if there is a stable Jellybean ROM for Epic 4G? I would like to use one as a daily driver.
also I'm looking for a good kernel for CM9.1 Stable ROM. Forgot to post that too...

Look in development. Paranoid android has lots of good reviews, and there is a cm10 build out but not sure how stable. As for kernels look for nyan colonel or shadow kernel. Have used both, but prefer nyan.

As of when I used it, it wasn't 100% stable. I think for now, you need to stick with CM9/7 or whatever you like. CM10 still has a bit to go to be a daily driver for everybody (some people are happy with it now, but many are waiting).

I wasn't referring to voodoo color I meant voodoo sound, I paid for the voodoo sound plus app and it's suppose to inject the code which make voodoo sound work for whatever Rom without the need of a required kernel.
And to answer your question about flashing the nexus modem, you don't just flash it it require a patch for the modem to be flashed.
There are two threads in the Development section that will guide to flashing not only the nexus modem, but any modem you want.

it's okay
as long as you're willing to learn about modems and such you're good I'm pretty cautious about flashing anything on my phone, so trust me flashing modems is a piece of cake. You should really try CM10 the only problem I see with CM10 is not being able to switch roms until odining back stock.
I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want to switch Roms after running CM10 with that extra artery clogging butter. Lol

I advise you to make a backup, wipe the usual data and such. CM10 does something with MTD I can't recall, so wiping data would be in your best interest. And don't be alarmed while flashing CM10 your phone reboots and you get stuck on the Cyanogen screen. Wait a minute or so, remove battery put it back in and go back to recovery wipe data again and reflash CM10. Make sure you have JB GAPPS too flash right after you flash CM10.

The CM10 nightlies are usually a little buggy. And I heard bluetooth doesn't work too often. I usually switch between CM10 and AOKP roms. Using LiquidSmooth right now just to try something different.

You don't have to wipe data if its the same rom, but I use Titanium Backup when switching to different roms.
Rom: LiquidSmooth RC9
Kernel: KT747
so far so good.
What jelly bean rom are you using? And why?
I am using cm10 stable and love it and the reason why is that I'm a newbie it is the one pour stock android I can get on my Samsung galaxy s3. I think my next phone will be the google nexus 5 when ever that comes out or a new galaxy nexus.
I'm using the latest cm10 nightly and it has some glitches here and there but it's solid for most part.
I'm using Serenity. It's a port of JB from the Galaxy Note II.
Why this one and not something else? I wanted to keep the Touchwiz feel for a while longer and I've used Serenity ROMs in the past on a different device.
Using CM10. Bass over bluetooth doesn't work so I dropped back to an older build. Even the older ones still work fine. Running leankernel. Couldn't be happier with my phone!

You did install the kernel, you just didnt know it. The kernel gets installed with the ROM. But you can flash a different kernel at some other point if you want to. I generally find the stock kernels work well for me

I'm running BlackBean with LeanKernel all apps inverted along with inverted JB 4.2 keyboard. Why? I used BlackBean on my old Nexus S, inverted stuff saves a ton of battery life on our SAMOLED screens, the combo is overall damn smooth and the kernel also helps to save that battery life while maintaining buttery smoothness. Couldn't be happier.
LiquidSmooth RC9 with leankernel. Seems to be working pretty good so far. A couple of complaints here and there (had an issue with phone crashing every time I received a call, some minor annoyances with music playback) but for the most part it's very speedy and stable.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
no offense, but it takes about 30 seconds to flash a kernel. Why don't you try a few and see which one works the best for you? Everyone's experience is going to be slightly different.
I flashed two different kernels before picking one, and after that I added some init.d scripts afterward that improved battery life over the stock kernel settings.

Unfortunately for your situation I am using JB like the rest because I find it more up-to-date, but I have heard really good things about the kernel I posted. Plus, with a title like that, who wouldn't flash it?

I would rather have stability than bleeding-edge any day! Contrary to my claim for the need of stability, I am going to give MIUI a shot. I tried it out when I had my G2x but there were some bugs that made that rom unusable as a dd for me. Hopefully my experience with MIUI will be much more pleasant with the S2!!
I'll flash the kernel later and see what happens. Even though I'll be giving MIUI a test run.... I always end up going back to Cyanogenmod. Always!

When I was running MIUI my only problem was not being able to shut off the capacitive lights. I had no problems with bootloops or anything of that sort.
I get bootloops and/or camera crashes with the latest JB MIUI and horrible call quality on my end with the last ICS based MIUI. It's odd that the call quality is fixed with the JB MIUI and busted in ICS, should be the other way around lol.

You're going to get a different answer from almost every person. Each person has their own needs and will see each rom differently. The best thing to do is read the OP of each rom and try the ones that look appealing to you.

[Q] Question about Leankernal+Paranoid Android

Hi!
This is my first post on the xda Forums; I've just been a lurker for a while now. I am still learning the ins/outs of Smartphone modifications/rooting/roms etc, so forgive my noobyness.
I've recently (two days ago) Rooted my Rogers S3, and Flashed Paranoid Android 2.55 Onto it. I'm loving it! However The battery life is something I'm not too keen on, so I've been lurking google for hours upon hours, forums etc, and I'm seeing that a popular Kernal people are using to cut down on battery drainage + Smoothen things up, is LeanKernal.
+
Now, I've poked around quite a bit, and I've read through something like 75+ pages of this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1845836
But just for the sake of not Bricking my phone / Digging a hole I'm not educated enough to get myself out of; I'd like to ask:
Is LeanKernal what I am looking for/compatible with, my P.A flashed Rogers S3?
Or any other tips for me?
Much appreciated!
Lean kernel is compatible with AOSP ROMs. The developer should have a clearly-marked download link.
That being said - if you can't find the answer you're looking for by yourself, don't flash it. It's very easy to brick a device by making one small mistake.

Lean kernel is designed for aosp ROMs but the new ones are based on a different Linux version. If you install paranoid android 2.55 with the newest lean kernel it will never boot. You need to either find am older lean kernel or flash the newest paranoidandroid.

Don't apologize. We all start somewhere. When I get off work I'll look into which lean kernel you can use. Give ktoonz a couple charge cycles to see how it's working before you start tweaking any of the performance settings.
