I have searched up and down for proper settings for kernel apps I usually run cm13 based ROMs even though I found wolly GPE to work nice without any tweaks but I like how CM is set up and feels a lot more smoother but one problem is my scrolling tends to hang and I play an online game religiously (fun run 2) and it seems to be more laggy while running CM, I'm pretty good with Linux computer wise and I'm just coming around to android development I enjoy what you guys do a lot of aspects are similar but there's a lot that's different as well. Anyways enough rambling. If anyone could tell me the best ROM and Kernel to fit my preference or even give me a link (I've read a lot already) I'd highly appreciate it.
I'm S-ON CM13 (not any CM based ) by the way not sure if that may be hanging me up also... Forgot to ask is busy box a must or is it just something to run certain apps ?
Also I'm not stuck on just L Speed if there's another Kernel tweaker someone could recommend I'd be more than glad to test it out!

Looked pretty average speed to me, certainly not slow for the Kaiser. Mine is running more smoothly then that using my latest CM6 build but it's running from NAND which will be faster. Getting rid of the fancy widgets on your home screen will speed up ADW Launcher as well, they're a waste of RAM. Other ways you will get it faster are overclocking using ATools or Rogue Tools, or getting a new phone.
to be honest im trying to flash one but i cant find a simple
i want something just to flash like i used to flash wm
I really dont care about customization
Check the forums here, there are many posts regarding installing to NAND. If I had to do it again, I would go with a Froyo build with not too much bloat and a .25 kernel, which for me right now seems quite stable.
I'm running 2.2.1 Froyo with a .25 kernel. I back up /data almost on a daily basis since I have had trouble with the phone locking up with some apps from the market. Otherwise a stable build is out there, just have to look for what you need and don't need.
There is a sticky topic related to "How to Replace"
I've overclocked mine to 520 MHz. It's pretty stable here, no problems thus far.
So far, the fastest build I've found is here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/2011-04-07-froyo/system-froyo-all-unodex-07-04-11_06.tgz/download
It's directly from the AndroidonHTC projects page and so far has been the fastest I've used to date.
Of course, I bogged it down with Facebook, Pandora and other useless garbage and made a backup of /data when done. Best thing is, no need for overclock.
Hi all,
I'm a new Nexus user and I was just wondering what is currently the best ROM and Kernal people are using. I put Android Revolution HD on my Nexus a few days ago and it's running great. I keep hearing people talk about Cyanogen or the Franco kernal though.
Are the performance improvements that much better, or should I stick to Revolution? I don't require a lot of personalization in terms of how things look. I'm quite happy with the stock look of the phone. I just want all the "behind the scenes" improvements like better battery life and loading times. What's the best setup in your experiences?
Thanks!
I've played around with several of the roms and kernels, with mixed results. It seemed like some roms and kernels would get me crazy performance, but really crappy stability.
The setup I'm running now is a cleanly wiped install of GummyNex 0.8.1 found here, or more directly here OnDemand governor is giving me respectable battery life. When I'm running short, I'll switch to Conservative. I've been meaning to set something up in Tasker or Setting Profiles to do it for me.
And Google apps found here, also more directly here
The kernel I run is Trinity, found here
If you haven't done so already, I found awesome performance improvements by opening the egl,cfg file in /system/lib/egl/, and deleting the first line- usually "0 0 android". Then going back into the egl folder and deleting both the .bak file some editors create, and the "libGLES_android.so" file. This is an ICS tweak that alleges to eliminate CPU rendering. I know there's an option in developer tools to "force GPU rendering", but apparently that doesn't quite cut it.
Anyway, that's my 2 cents, and it's blazing fast and stable. Averaging around 3800 in Quadrant.
Thanks! Revolution HD already does GPU rendering so I'm not to worried about that. I guess I'll just stick with that since it's basically stock with a few performance tweaks. I'm not big on instability :/.
The Trinity kernel looks interesting though... Is the overclock safe though? And does it drain a lot of extra battery?

Revolution HD is based on 4.0.2 so many kernels will not work because they are based on 4.0.3 and 4.0.4. I highly recommend you use a rom that is based on 4.0.3 AOSP (Such as GummyNex or AOKP). 4.0.3 has better stability/battery/performance tweaks anyway. If you want a better selection of Trinity's kernels go here. TNP1344-ANY-384-aelp (dated Feb 27th) is really nice. If it gives you bootloops up the voltages by 50 or 100.
aokp.27 + glados.v.1.18 OR leankernel.v.2.4.0 (both are stable as a rock)
Alright, I'll try Open Kang I guess. I'm so new to this... Sorry for all the questions :/.
It seems like a hassle to reinstall all your apps often so that you can switch to a new ROM . Does this need to be done every time the device changes its firmware version?

Well... you can always backup your apps with Titanium Backup, and save all your preferences (such as Nova Launcher, Minimalistic Text, etc.) and then reload that. And usually if you stick one one Rom and then an update comes from that rom, you don't have to wipe data (just cache & dalvik cache). But if you're switching Roms, then yes, you have to reinstall all your apps.

with titanium pro its a matter of minutes, saves your app-data also, so you don't loose your highscores. but as was mentioned before, updates go through without factory-reset most of the time once you're settled.
btw, aokp is perfectly stable.
I'm running gummy with the latest lean kernel and love it. Battery life is great and performance is top notch. Big fan of team gummy. I get a solid full days use regularly. usually around 20% when I plug it in after 16 hours of use and I use it fairly regularly, wifi, 4g, txt, web, etc.

Hello everyone...I'm planning on trying to develop a gingerbread kernel for AOSP because we don't really have support anymore and everyone has moved onto developing for ICS (not that this is a bad thing). I figure in my spare time I might as well try to learn and develop for our phone. Let me start by saying I was never really into phones/smartphones/rooting, or software development, but I've always been fascinated by Linux in general. I've played around using a number of Linux distros, but I've never really done anything intensive with them (modified their kernels, etc.) but I am vaguely familiar with terminal usage.
Anyways that was just my introduction. I've been running an ICS kernel on my AOSP GB system (specs/stuff in my signature) and while most advised against it, I find it to run pretty well. I'm not sure why it seems to run so well on my phone, but it's basically solved most of my problems (or at least it appears to have done that), but I know the kernel isn't "optimized" for my phone. Some major things people have said are that the ramdisking operations/system is totally different when comparing ICS and GB. This kernel that I'm using is running pretty well, even knowing this fact. What I was wondering is if I could basically get the ICS kernel, then "merge it" with a GB kernel's parameters that pertain to the ramdisk/other major options of GB. That would probably make it better. Also, people stated that multitouch issues for the DINC2 occured on Aeroevan's 0.8 kernel, but not on the 0.7 kernel. This was the changelog stated by aeroevan:
v0.8: Upstream CyanogenMod changes + small touchscreen driver update from HTC. Only tested on my CM7.2 Kang build.

So maybe this "small touchscreen driver update" is the thing that caused it, but I'm assuming many other kernels applied this update too? Maybe there is a way to roll back to whatever was in 0.7 in this sense to get rid of the multitouch bug that plagues some people.
I have a pretty powerful laptop, so development shouldn't be too bad. I plan on running Ubuntu 11.10 (or whatever people find suitable these days) in a Virtual Machine and I plan on compiling stuff from there. I am not claiming I know everything or that these things are correct....I am simply just throwing out some brainstorming to get some ideas out there. I know GB is "old", but I (and some others as well) enjoy it's stability and that it generally functions perfectly. Maybe this thread will get a look from popular devs, or maybe it'll get a look from people who just know this stuff. Thanks for reading, and sorry for the length of the post.
Looking forward to your progress on this.

It would be nice to have another kernal for AOSP other than aero.
Your help in developing AOSP kernels would be fantastic.
Thanks given. Because I am hard of hearing I cannot use any of the kernels (even Evan's) and have to stick to Sense
Hi all,
I've scoured the forum for quite some time now and have tried a number of newish ROMs (those posted in May) but have not found any that are compatible with Ktoonsez's latest kernel. A lot of people have advised against overclocking but my GS3 certainly performs better with OC enabled. I flashed one of Jamison's nightlies months ago and it has been the most stable/reliable out of any ROM I've tested since. I either got lucky and found the perfect ROM for my phone or I just haven't found a solid new ROM that supports OC'ing. I've had random reboots, force closes, etc. with all the new ROMs I've tried so I was hoping someone could give me some ideas on a ROM/kernel combination that might work for me. The only reason I even want to change my current ROM is because many of my Google apps report that an update is available, but when I go to update, my "device doesn't support this version." It's quite frustrating and a pretty sad reason to switch ROMs when literally EVERYTHING else works flawlessly, but it is a problem for me and I'd like to be able to stay up to date. Sorry for the long post, but anyone with advice would be wonderful. Thanks!
You need a kernel that support OC, its not ROM specific.. You do however, need to check kernel's description to which base it works with.. Sometimes they will have one for just touchwiz or touchwiz and aosp, thats pretty much the main thing to look for and just try different ones.. It should also say if its OC able or not

I have an Australian version (XSA) of the Note 10.1 sm-p600 which was only ever upgraded to 4.4.2 (latest official release).
I find the performance sluggish when playing games (eg Clash Royale) and want to see if a new ROM will improve the speed but want minimal fuss. I would like to know people's suggestions of which ROM to use that will give me a faster but still stable experience.
Is the official 5.1.1 any good? Do I need to go custom? I want to avoid having to do complicated installs as well if possible.
I mostly play games and watch YouTube on it and maybe some sports apps to get scores. Nothing that really requires root (and some of the sports apps don't like root).
Thanks in advance.
Just checked my build and it looks like it is already on 5.1.1 - I must have updated it last year and forgotten.
Still not happy with the load times of Clash Royale, any other suggestions about making the tablet run faster? It seems to still have a decent processor and RAM despite being a few years old.
Well, you're running 5.1.1 right? Probably the only thing left is to go to Development section and install Prime Kernel V6, it's the last version for lollipop touchwiz. That one has a couple of tweaks to improve the standard performance offered by stock/factory software. Make sure to backup everything, and then flash the zip. Updating kernel has no need to wipe or reformat anything so no data is lost, but do it just in case.
To get more juice out, you'd have to install custom ROMs, like LiquidDeath from the Original Development section, that has a couple of new stuff like the updated GPU driver ported from marshmallow touchwiz apparently, and from my subjective view, performance is better along with increased battery life.
I don't do much gaming, but on stock 5.1.1 with stock kernel I usually get around 7 hours screen on time browsing the web, but with LD I can go around 10 to 11 hours easy with the same usage.
Thanks. I'll check out the kernel first.
Would you suggest LiquidDeath or LineageOS?
Sorry for the late reply, lol. I assume you've been running touchwizz/stock Samsung lollipop this while, but using that custom kernel I've mentioned? How was the experience? If that works fine with you, I believe there's no need for custom ROMs.
I test and run random ROMs many times, liking to flash stuff and all. If you want to try out the waters, the most rock-solid, no-issues release so far is probably the last release of LiquidDeath, mostly because it has less crud, and therefore fewer potential to go wrong. Lineage is good too, but I prefer keeping it simple.
