Suggest Kernel... - Sony Xperia M

Hello there i'm using CM11 and i want to flash a better kernel to boost battery life... plz suggest me a good kernel... is there any kernel which supports Double tap to wake feature like LG G2???

There is no 'best' or 'worst' kernel at all. Kernel (and ROM for that matter) performance depends on how you use your device. A kernel what performs really well on your device may perform really poorly on another and visa versa.
The only way to find the best for your device is to flash them and test them yourself.

There is currently no custom kernels for cm 11... Only stock 4.1.2 or 4.2.2.

Kernels?

Ok I installesd a new rom HOTSAUCE V.2
And I c on other forums tlking about kernels?
Is it nessasry to install one?
And what do they do?..
Sorry if I'm a noob. Just recently got my g2

You don't need to install a kernel because you already have one its included on all roms otherwise you wouldn't be able to use your phone. kernel is basically a leyer between hardware and your os .you can try different ones if you wanna oc or get a better battery life or wifi calling and so on .and you must make sure its compatible with your rom. also may I suggest you search for kernel in Wikipedia if you wanna get a better understanding of what is kernel and what it does.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Was that a serious answer?
To simplify:
Q. "What kernel should I use"
A. "Use one of the kernels"
That's essentially what you just said.
@OP Use either the standard kernel that comes in the .rar (called boot.img) OR use the mjolnir kernel. (I'm talking about CM9 only here).
I'm using boot.img inside the zip of rom. Thanks!

【GUIDE】[ROM Transplant ]2nd-boot rom with stock kernel support (updated)

【GUIDE】[ROM Transplant ]2nd-boot rom with stock kernel support (updated)
【Before the guide】
Hi, it is my first time to write here and share my methods with you guys. So please show me your encouragements.
【What am I doing】
The reason why I want to transplant the kernel on defy is, I am now studying the multiboot feature. My main system is stock 2.3.6 so the 2nd-init rom like Quarx CM10 4.1.2, AOKP 4.1.2, new SlimBean, etc. cannot boot. ALTHOUGH you can directly change some older roms' kernel.
【Aim】
NOW with this method you can get your 2nd-boot ROM work on stock kernel as well.
【Step】
Now follows the method. You'll make this manually on your PC or Android devices. TAKE AOKP FOR EXAMPLE
【Simple-transplant】
1.Extract an older ROM of 4.1.1 that can boot on stock kernel. Copy /system/app, /system/framework , /lib/libandroid-runtime.so and prepare to transplant.
2.Extract 2nd-init ROM of 4.1.2 AOKP .
3.Copy files copied above to 4.1.2 's folder and replace those three parts.
4.CHECK IF THE BOOTMENU FOLDER'S FILES ARE THE SAME AS 4.1.1, OR you won't have your multiboot.
5.Compress and sign your ROM, Enjoy!
(Sign your rom using signapk or other tools that can be found in the forum. IF you are dong this using your PHONE, Zipsigner2.apk is recommended.)
【Advanced-transplant】
-for the brave, can keep more new features of original 4.1.2 and get multiboot compatible.
TO BE UPDATE' NOT FINISHED
【Help】
Any Question you can leave message below or PM me. You can also find me on bbs . mfunz .com @ twsk

No reply? So upset…

well well well, does anybody know Quarx's 4.2?
Sent from my IdeaTab A1107 using xda app-developers app
So this way we can downgrade the new custom kernel found in 2nd boot CM9/10 roms, to older stock kernel, to get multiboot compatibility. But isn't the custom kernel the main feature and advantage of 2ndboot builds?
Sent from my Defy green lense using xda-developers app
If you insist on using a more stable main system and multiboot feature, you cannot use 2nd boot kernel, since it doesn't work on stock ROM.
Sent from my DEFY using xda app-developers app
Right. By this way you may lose some of the features of 2nd boot kernel but NOT ALL. Well, because i am using stock China edition as my main system . It is more powerful in video playing, like playing RMVB films using HW. But I can try the 4.1.2 Jelly Bean because of the kernel. And Q's kernel still has bugs, therefore i share this method to help those in need.
Sent from my DEFY using xda app-developers app
Yes, video playback is definitely better on GB, as the HW decoder doesn't work on JB! I would love to see GB roms with custom kernel, to see how we could improve the already outstanding performance
Sent from my Defy green lense using xda-developers app
Haha, sure , If custom kernel can work on stock GB, all problems will be solved.

(Request) CUSTOM Kernel for LG-E980 CM11 Official Build KITKAT

Can someone please make a custom kernel that supports the official CM11 nightly builds? The features I am looking for are USB-OTG support definitely and if possible for it to support UMS as well. There currently is a custom kernel for jellybean but there isn't one for KitKat and if someone could make one for KitKat that would be AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sent from my LG-E980 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I also wish a kernel to be able to overclock with KitKat.
Yes! Although it flies once you bump up the default cm11 ridiculous underclocking!
Sent from my LG-E980 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Fauxsound please!
Bump! It sucks not having any custom kernels for this phone, im running the latest cm kitkat. For me faux sound is a must have for this phone, can someone please make a kernel with faux sound at least? Id do it myself but i am not competent enough. Or maybe if someone managed to update the discontinued kernel to work with kitkat?
