sense 2.1 rom + overclock kernel: which is the best?

Hi, I saw that there are some alternatives but none up to date comparison or advice.
I love having stock rom, but I want to overclock it a bit and to have init.d support and int2ext support.
So, for kernel:
- Dust
- Cake
- Sense_fire
which (and what version) is the most stable/the best?
Rom: should I keep stock rom or install a stock-like rom? As for the kernel... Which is the most stable?
Basically I hope to have a rock-solid-like-stock device with a rom that is stock-like and has init.d support and a kernel that supports oc, ext4 (and maybe swap). Is too much to ask?
Last question: to swap or not to swap, that is the question... I red a lot about swap but there are very different opinions and I'm a bit confused. What do you advise?
Thank you very much!

see you will find stock with init.d from my signature link,check my work..
and i have made kernel with oc and without oc with lots of features and also ext4 and swap support.
feel free to try.

Well, I already saw that and I'm considering your work. But I ask to you (I think you are using your own kernel and rom) is it rock-solid? What does it have better than other roms or kernels (like dust or cake)?
I know that everyone should try things and there are different opinions and so on... But unfortunatly I have to "tweak" a phone that I can't have in my hands for too much time and too much times to try different roms and kernels, and for a rom-change I should also backup and restore everything, because is the primary phone of a friend. So I'm searching about opinions of users that have tried different things to try to find the better one at the first shot

oh okay..yeah i am using my sense_fire_v1 kernel because i dont like OC.and int2ext4+ with 500 mb ext4 and 500 mb swap and my phone is faster than it was on stock kernel.
dust and cake are good but they are old and also drain toomuch battery so i dont use them instead i made new kernels.
edit : Questions should be in Q & A forum.
as you are asking for opinions it's okay but remove that question sign.

Ok, I'll try your kernel+rom... But for swap... What about sd card life? And if I want to use it, I should enable it in any way or is automatically enabled if I have the partition on the sd card?

Kernal version HELP!

hi everyone , i have a replica galaxy s3 .My Telephone kernel version is 3.0.13 1306 V3 .According to this kernel i can't anything swap(for ram booster)..And my telephone memory is 2 GB . What can i do for increase my memory?? Someone tell me kernel not support please HELP.. English soo hardd i can't write :laugh:

Sorry I don't quite understand exactly what your asking. This is the forum for the Sprint Galaxy S3, maybe your looking for the International S3 forum.

You must have too many apps running in the background, how much free RAM do you have? I think like Ed said, your in the wrong forum.

[Q] What's better for CyanogenMod roms? MG2 and its 482 MB of RAM or 624?

Hi everybody.
I readed a lot about the memory repartition for different roms.
Some 4.1 stock custom roms recommend repartition to 624 MB, and another custom roms remcommend stay it with 482 MB of RAM.
But, my question is: What is better for CyanogenMod roms, stay with 482 MB or memory repartition to 624?
Excuse me if this question is answered in the forum, I don't find it.
Regards.

624. Where did you find 482 recommended

I used CM with both 550MB and 624MB RAM; didn't notice any difference in performance.
So i also suggest you give it a try with 624.

In a rom thread about a MC8 stock custom rom (I can't remember it). An user said that 482 MB was recomendable for MC8 but 624 MB for MF1/MG2.
Thank you both.

Hi there,
I used the stock GB with 550Mo and it was the minimum acceptable, then i ran the update to stock JB MF1 and I got 482 which was absolutely terrible ! Every time I used 2 apps at a time, when I wanted to go back on the homescreen, the launcher was off and I had to wait for it to restart.
now I'm running cm10.2 (4 janv. 2014 version) and I finally got 624Mo which is perfect !!

Rox said in a reply that the best option is 4.1 MG2 for its ROM.
I am since some weeks with it and with 624 MB RAM repartition. It's O.K. :good:

I flashed CM10.2 over MF1 stock ROM which had 482Mo and now I've got 624Mo.
The amount of RAM in CM10.2 doesn't seem to be linked with the amount you got on the ROM you had just before flashing.
I think Rox recommended to flash over the MG2 version cause it's the last one released by Samsung.

Yeah, less is very allegedly better for MC8, but CM isn't built over stock

Could somebody suggest a ROM and kernel suited to these needs?

Hi,
I've been using tips from this community . I decided to become a member recently. I've been using an Arc S since April 2012. I'd had bluetooth(bootloop) and Wi-Fi (extremely slow) problems with ICS(stock). I'd then rooted and installed this kitkat ROM ( [ROM][CM11][Arc/S][UB] Xperia UltraKat v2.1.1 | KK 4.4.2 | 11/4/2014 | [DISCONTINUED]). The Wi-Fi and bluetooth problems vanished at the cost of a resource hogging ROM( it took up a lot of RAM and internal memory ). I could use those features but there wasn't much space to do so. I'd then downgraded to ICS and installed this ICS ROM([ROM]{ICS} Xperia Ultimate HD 5.0.1 | Extreme Innovation | Performance redefinied |]) recently. The ROM is amazing; it's fast and doesn't take up much space but the Wi-Fi is slow ( download erratically - took a few hours to download 18MB). I have a feeling that the Wi-Fi problem is intimately linked to ICS. I mean no disrespect to the developers, they've done their part.
In short, could someone suggest a ROM in which:
1) There are no Wi-Fi problems.
2) There are no bluetooth problems.
3) The ROM is fast and I get sufficient( ~250-300MB) internal memory.
4) Games work smoothly(optional )
I've tried searching but I want to know for certain that the above things work(from people who have actually used the ROM).
I looked at this thread ([Q&A][KK]Review of 2 roms, with tips and bugs and future suggestions) , but it doesn't answer my questions specifically. Plus, I'm skeptical about returning to kitkat
I guess I'm looking for a JB ROM. Any ideas,suggestions or comments ?

Go to Super Jelly Bean 8.0 with SuperFusion kernel. Very good performance en stable rom.

I won't suggest using a JB ROM since they're much laggier than KK. If you want smoothness KK is your best bet. Best is to try Mike's CM11 nightlies.

JB ROMs are laggier than KK? I didn't know that. When I was using the kitkat ROM(ultrakat), I used to get ~60-90MB of free RAM. I'm using a JB ROM now(Super Jelly Bean 8.0) and I get ~170-210MB of free RAM. And there's no lag at all.
I'll still try the CM11 based ROM though. Thanks for the suggestion.

There's certain tweaks that can be done to the ROM that reduces lag. KK is supposed to be faster because it was developed for low end devices.

Changing the I/O scheduler can improve device performance but it's not so obvious. I won't recommend overclocking because you're going to fry the mobo especially when you OC to 2GHz. You can try V6 supercharger script. Did wonders for my Arc S back then.

Are you able to play games?How much internal memory is available to you after installing this ROM?

I have not try to play games.
After installing rom i think it was more than 250 mb free.
I use link2sd plus with mine Class10 Samsung pro 16gb. (ext2 for apps 2gb)

More than 250 MB free on your Arc S? even after installing gapps? Can you share the original cm11 kernel by mike? I don't want to download the entire ROM.
Or did you mean this ROM - {All 2011}[DEV][KitKat 4.4.4][LegacyXperia] unofficial CyanogenMod 11.0 builds ??

Yes this rom.
You must try it because i dont no now how much memory it was.
The kernel is inside the zip rom file.
For Arc s (anzu) ,download this file :https://s.basketbuild.com/devs/LegacyXperia/anzu/cm-11.0/nightlies

help!! my zenfone 2 has mismanaged ram

is that since I turn on my zenfone 2 3 apps open and a ram gets filled and slow. I have the version of 4GB of RAM as I can avoid this ??

It's strange... My ZF2 has 4GB RAM, and all the time I never see the free run below 1,5GB in stock rom.
Well, you can flash a custom kernel to partially fix the memory management (Lollipop is a bull****) or a lightweight stock-based custom rom. My recomendations are: Project T and BORET's kernels and Prism Barebone and Echoe ROMs.

Did you unlock the bootloader? Your fw version is updated?

As the addition:
1. Install and configure Xposed.
2. Install Fix Lollipop Memory Leak from the repositories.
3. Activate module and reboot.
It should fix ColorFade memory leak that exist on Android 5.0.x ROMs.
