I've heard a lot of good things about both, I'm just wondering which one is the more "popular" one to say. I've been using ElementalX for a month now, and it works pretty good overclocked to 1.8Ghz.
I don't really use touchwake that much, so it's not a deal breaker. Since I hear a lot about Franco, what's so good about it?

I suggest Franco or faux123 kernel, I use faux123 at the moment and it works perfectly

They are both great kernels made by respected devs. I use ElementalX but I suggest to give them each a try and see for yourself.
Sent from my Nexus 7 Flo running Odex SinLess ROM 4.4.2 with ElementalX kernel using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I tried Franco and thought it was slower than ElementalX. Have it over clocked slightly more at 1.8Ghz, but I don't think it makes the difference. ElementalX has made me happy, so I'll keep it.
Sent from my Nexus 7
At the moment ElementalX is the best kernel and I can recommend using it because of it's great stability, performance and variety of customisations.
Does anyone know if there are known issues that are causing bootloops? I have a 2013 N7 running on CM 10.2 and I flashed both Glitch and ElementalX kernels and both gave me bootloops

You want to make sure you are using the proper kernel. The most recent ones are for 4.4.2 but you're running 4.3 JB. Other than that, make sure your ROM is AOSP based and it should work. This is not withstanding some CM 11 builds.

Thanks for the answer. I also tried Franco kernel and I was able to get the lock screen but all the colors seemed to be negative. Perhaps is a GPU issue. I get a totally cyan screen when the CM Boot animation appears. Also with Franco kernel it said: com.phone.android has stopped, I wasn't able to get out of the lock screen. Ill try with another ROM like AOKP, Carbon, Omni or PA
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Are both of these kernels compactor with CM11.
I used to use Franco kernel exclusively on my N4, but the CM team changed something (related to colour?) that made it incompatible.
Also, do they both support usb-otg so I can mount my USB stick?

hello everyone tomorrow ill be leaving my htc desire as my main phone and getting a galaxy nexus, after i unlock the boot loader and root the phone, and messed around with it, i will most likely flash a custom rom and kernel, the only thing is im not sure which rom to use untill cm9, any recommendations?
thanks
I'm using gummy and love it. Stable, fast, good battery life, lots of options for customizing. Can't say enough good things about it. Let us know what u go with.
I'm using AOKP with Franco's kernel. Great customization, speed, and stability on both fronts.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I was running CM9 kang until today with trinity kernel from morfic. Batter life was great but I couldn't help myself I had to try the 4.0.4 build. so far so far good but I'm missing some of the customization options from cm9.
I highly HIGHLY recommend using Codename Android. The kernel isn't so much important on this phone as it is with other ones. Codename android comes with its own custom kernel and it works great. Its a great ROM.

+1 I agree with you
AOKP M3 + Franco Kernel. There's a reason that this is the most common setup.

Kernel not important on the GN? I highly disagree with you. The benefits from using a alternative kernel is endless especially when looking at Franco Kernel.
AOKP + Franco for me.

Ok.. There are many roms on xda and kernals too
If someone has figured it out.. could anyone tell me which rom-kernel combination is the best for battery (and settings to if needed)

There is no such thing as best. My phone and your phone are not identical, even though they may have very been from the same production lot. Nor are the individual circumstances under which two given people use their phones identical. Something that performs extremely well on one phone may very well boot loop on another.
Do some research by reading the applicable dev forum, and then try some different combinations for yourself to see if they work for you under your unique set of circumstances.

there is no best combo, there is only the best combo for you and your device. for me its rasbean jelly rom with trinity kernel. but whats best for me and my device might not be right for you and your device.
I've been using cataclysm with Franco kernel for a while and have been very satisfied.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Agreed, there is no best. I've had good luck with muzzy's aosp room and Trinity kernels. But you might not like that combo. I'm not interested in gaming for instance, so my needs might be different than yours. Try different combos and you'll discover your own best.
Ok.. got it.. thanks everyone
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
stock rom is the best in my opinion
I think Xylon (014) with the default lean kernel gives good battery life. Tried the ROM with Franco 358 but i went back to lean.
Also, i make site that my most of my apps aren't running in the background and using up the battery... That's what the FAQs from Franco's OP in his thread mentions.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
I get over 5 hours screen on time and a flawless smooth ROM with heavy usage with both data and WiFi on with xylon stable and ak purity kernel running Wheatley gov. I just addressed this on the xylon thread. Works well for me and some others.. Have a look its worth the flash to see.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
For me it's I've been on Muzzy's French Vanilla on stock kernal. However, I've read good things about tiny's kernal too but I haven't tried it myself.
As a noob in the android community, and after trying different roms, i like rasbean the most for different reasons, but on choosing a kernel, for example trinity, there are a lot of options. What's the difference? I really not get it :silly:
for example, TNP1536-512-JB-4.1.2-STABLE67
So this one is max 1536Mhz CPU and max 512 GPU i read on derkernel site
So there's a different setting for graphics (gpu)? I always tought CPU was working between 1536-512 Mhz?
And euh, when i have trinity's app, i can change the settings of this kernel to get this one? (TNP1344-384-JB-4.1.2-STABLE67)
So this is the same kernel but with different settings?
Please make me a little bit smarter

FYI, Trickster also now works on the Nexus 10. Not sure if the Play Store has been updated yet for it but the latest Manta beta version supports everything that Trickster normally does

It contains some CM tweaks if you read the Liquid ROM OP. Those CM tweaks are probably what's causing the bootloop. I'm assuming the ROM has to be pure AOSP based.
Pure Aosp based? That's a bit difficult. I'm also on Liquid smooth.

I'm not a dev nor do I have any dev knowledge, so I don't know. It's not the fact that it has "CM" parts in it that doesn't make it work, but CM has a tweak in there that makes this kernel bootloop. If AOKP also has the tweak, then it's going to bootloop as well.
Just make a nandroid and try it.

Hay im running Dirty Unicorn(4.4.2) and the latest elementalX kernal and it does charge my nexus 7 with the OTG cable and sends power to my DAC, but the sound is still playing through the speakers of my Nexus.
the DAC im using is the Behringer UCA-222 it works fine with CM10.2, but no OTG charging.
Could someone please help me out?
Thanks
There's a reason why these threads are frowned upon, and this is a prime example. To the OP, there are no real roms that are/are not noob friendly. Some just have extra optimizations...it's up to you to utilize them all. As starters, get comfortable with the stock rom, then try the others. Then you can truly determine which rom is best for you AND for your device (since each device may respond differently).
