for one.. im pretty confident all audio issues ive had with MIUI will now be fixed. i had very very similar issues with my og dinc and after flashing tmt's series those were all fixed.
also if im not mistaken..i believe smartass and oc have been optimized.
i mean im not 100% sure..its just what i remembered from my original encounter with it.

Could this be used on the Incredibly Debloated ROM?

i wouldnt recommend that.
the do's and do nots are there for a reason.
most likely whatll happen is ull see random reboots and a serious battery drain.

Correct. It will not work as they have different ramdisk structures. That's why kernels are tagged AOSP or Sense. There have been a few exceptions in the past that have been compatible with both (I've only seen them for Inc 1 though). Also I believe this is a gingerbread only kernel.

backing up and throwing this on the cm7 nigthly... crosses fingers...

Interested to see if this fix's the Audio issue. Then it would get me to come back to MIUI and load this kernel..to many sound issues for me for now.

so far so good on cm7, haven't tried voice calls yet though to test volumes
clock choices are amazing.. must be 20 of them. ranging from 192mhz to 2035mhz. Don't think i'll be pushing my luck above 1300-1400mhz though

Ok cool ill be using it. I love the smart ass gov and its got more frequencies
Has anyone stress tested our phone to see how high is safe? I have a feeling this processor is really strong. I love my single core that goes higher than the dual core!

damn this must be pretty well known as a really good kernel.. i was using JDkernel and really happy but gonna have to check this out from a lot of your responses

just loaded this up made a test call.. the volume issue is fixed!!

this also fixed the crashing issue for miui music
I lied...just froze on me.
sent from an under rated phone

*edit* The call volume issue is indeed fixed
No issues so far, running it on OMFGB rom, froze setcpu so I could let the kernel at stock clock + the smartass governor do it's thing and see just how far I can squeeze the battery. So far I'm very impressed with this kernel.
If you're like me and have been endlessly flashing between CM7, MIUI, OMGB and OMFGB, Rmk's sense, etc and especially if you have tried other kernels, I'd highly recommend you wipe your battery stats after flashing this. I was a little worried after I first flashed it as I was draining pretty fast (not the fault of the kernel, just have to clean up after a shameless tweak like me gets a hold of something) but I wiped the stats and all systems are go now

One question I have is about the SBC feature mentioned on the FAQ on tiamat website. Is this included in this kernel and if so is it possible to turn it off somehow? I know its included for the Inc and evo - both probably because of the charging issue which the inc2 also has. So wondering if this was included for this kernel. Thanks again. Other than that its running nice and smooth. Hope to run it through the courses to see battery life differences if any
Sent from my Incredible 2 using Tapatalk

OK, so I came from the droid 2, where we didn't have kernels. So noob question incoming.
Does the kernel itself have settings, or would I use setcpu?
If the settings are built in, how do I get to them/change them?
Sent from somewhere over the double rainbow.

Things like clock speed and governor can be controlled through setCPU or the built in performance settings of cyanogenmod. Undervolting is built into some kernels, but I don't think there's a tool for customizing voltages on the incredible 2 yet.

[Q] Fastest Sense / Non-Sense Rom

I want to know what the absolute fastest rom is for the EVO...Sense or Non-Sense...don't care, and with everything working.
*Just to be clear......not asking what the best rom is. Not too sure I care about Quadrant scores either. Looking more at how it handles transitions, boot up, opening and closing apps, the whole enchilada.
If you leave a comment can you please also let me know what kernel you may have paired with it.
Thx.
cm6 or lithids GB builds for aosp, i like the cyanogen kernals and savage's too
mikfroyo 4.1 with netarchy's 4.2.2 for sense or ziggy's latest
u can overclock both roms for the speedfreak in ya
also use spare parts to speed up transitions

Sorry, just edited my post because I wanted to include that the rom should have everything working.
I know CM6 now has that but what about mikfroyo?
Just head over to the development forum and check it out. Mikfroyo has everything working, and without a doubt is the fastest sense rom out there. Several other developers are using Amikam's base rom in their own work.
Hands down MikFroYo v4.1
I've been flashing ROMs for two years now. I have to say out of the box without doing any mods, MikFroYo v4.1 is the fastest ROM I've every used. Everything works, as long as you wipe everything and start from scratch. It is a Sense based ROM. I used to flash CM ROMs just to have a faster running Hero. Now with MikFroYo v4.1 on a EVO there is no loss in speed. Have fun and good luck choosing. I'm running MikFroYo v4.1 with launch pro and it is a beautiful thing.

mikfroyo will not let u down, it all works, plus the dev is constantly tweaking it even more; he supports his work bigtime and answers every question fast
Anyone using the latest SBS kernel with this? How does it run? Is battery life good?
Batt life is good. On a easy day with not to much action you can get 18-20 hrs. On a heavy day maybe 10-12. But thats what home, computer, and car charges are for.
Im considering Mikfroyo 4.1 too, but i was wondering if anyone knows of or can post a video of it. How similar is the UI to the stock Evo UI?
thanks

Don't need a video. I just flashed 4.2 and there are very few changes to the stock UI. Looks basically the same with exception to a few additional installed apps, power notification drop down, maybe a style change on something. There are also some stock apps not included. But, is way faster than the stock one.
It is fast for a Sense rom but still can't believe an ASOP isn't the fastest available.
I've been getting around 2500 in quadrant and 39.5 consistently using CM 6.1.1 with netarchy's 7.6 SNAP BFS. I'm also running the iNexus 6.1.1 theme.

That's good but I'm not too interested in benchmarks. Even Cyanogen has said they are trivial and not accurate most the time.
What I am interested in is user experience. How is CM6 when doing transitions, opening apps, etc? Mikfroyo right now, even with the sense, is pretty darn smooth and fast.
Or, maybe even throw Vaelpak in there. It seemed pretty quick when using. Any other seriously fast roms out there?
Would really like to hear an opinion from someone who has used CM and maybe Mikfroyo. Even if you don't like Sense (i don't) it can be removed from any rom.
yea i used quad on my evo when it was stock and was getting 1250-1300 consistantly, and my phone was getting slow, jerky, and unresponsive. Rooted and put mikfroyo on and im amazed at how much more smoothly it runs. Funny thing is it benchmarks at or lower then it did before, yet in real world stuff its obviously faster.
6.1.1 has been very smooth and I can honestly say that after enabling snap turbo, it is far and away the fastest tom i've used.
Fresh 3.5.0.1 w/ toast 4.1.9.1 was faster than mikfroyo 4.2 for me... CM 611 W/ Snap Turbo blows them both out of the water. Also, if benchmarks don't mean anything, nobody would develop them. If I was scoring an 8 on quad w a samsung, i would attempt to convince myself of that, but in reality, i'd just exchange it for an htc.
Nonetheless, for the rest of the weirdos who do use benchmarks to assist w choosing a rom or kernel, you may find the following beneficial: http://home.comcast.net/~ttechnology/compiled.html

How was your battery life while on CM 611 compared to the other roms?
Comparable since i use cpu tuner as well and config'd it to max @ 400ish on screen off.

Looking for the best Rom and kernel combination for my EVO 4G?

Hey guys what's up...ok so I finally got my evo rooted and I was able to try out a couple of ROMs....I tried so far cyanogenmod 7 and nyms warm twopointtwo rls5 but I noticed that my data would cut out and not switch over from 3g to wi fi and in cyanogenmod 7 force close errors left to right...what is the best kernel Rom combination that will provide the most features performance and stability? Now using stock rooted Rom...on a happy note I was able to put the Android peeing on Apple bootloader love it lol....let me know guys thanks

Personally.. I'm leaning towards Sense based roms more and more. They just have alot of the features I'm after and now that most are implementing other aspects of AOSP roms I'm finding more and more it's the way to go (ie. miui player, android mail vs htc etc, themed gallery etc.) I can make 2 recommendations right off the bat.
1. Koni Elite Series III - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941055
2. King Cocoa True Blue - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=995410
I've played with so many roms I've lost count but I think with either one of those you'll find everything you are looking for. And I find that most themes will flash over them as well (Slayers cyan dragons and skulls theme is pretty sweet on koni's)
Every phone is different and not one seems to be the same as the next so as to recommend a kernel that is gonna take some testing on your part. I've given up on trying different ones as most cause nothing but boot loops and crashes. HTC #15 stock kernel plays the best for me. As for roms.. Keep on flashing.. It becomes addictive but you'll find what you like eventually. The work these cats have put into these roms are worthy of many a dollar so be sure to thank them for their work! Good luck , have fun!
thank you for the reply I really appreciate it...yes it is very true...rooting these guys is like taking away their chastity belts lmao....totally opens up the possibilities...i am super new to this don't even know what the good apps are and good folks on here helped me root my phone...definitely going with sence gonna check out those time in a bit

If you want a stable, fast and battery-efficient Sense ROM that cuts out a lot of the Sprint/htc cruft and still looks nice, check out Eternal Prophecy.
It has the best battery life of any ROM I've used and matches speeds with many of the best AOSP ROMs.
SWYPED from my Evo with Eternal Prophecy 5.8 ROM. Yeah I said Swyped.
ilove MiK and Myn
both are the best for me.
it really boils down to personal preference. there's no one true answer as to what is the best combination as it differs from person to person.
i'm enjoying CM7 with the Tiamat kernal. some people like SZ, some people like others..
yea, it's up to you.. try out a bunch and see what you like.

Went your route my friend Thanks for the input
CM7 + Tiamat kernel = 1day 9hrs battery life.
Fast, stable, good battery life, smooth....a perfect winner.
you should try Azreal x4.0 it is really fast and everything works
MIUI is very unique, runs on Gingerbread power. Warning - no 4G (yet).
Kernel is Tiamat 3.3.8 with SBC. I suggest that you use Kernel Manager, works pretty well.
Oh, and if you're a flashaholic, be sure to condition your battery. Charge to 100%, go into recovery and wipe battery stats, reboot phone, when it boots to the desktop unplug the phone and don't plug it up until the battery is fully dead. Then charge it to 100% again. Boom. Better batter.

Rom benchmark comparison

This is my compilation of Antutu Benchmarks...I've done many others so expect more.
- All ROMS benchmarked at 768MHz except stock V...set to Airplane mode except Sun Spider
- Ran 3 of each benchmark...I never ran them after each other so no caching.
- Swap partitioned to 128Mb/512Mb fs .... I've shown that partitioning doesn't matter in my other post (check below)
- Phones only used the benching programs & a screenshot app
This took awhile, probably greater than 2 weeks as I restarted again and again when I found better ways to set up the phone, but I like to see actual numbers to back up reasoning...more to come!!!

You don't want that. Better off getting aospCMod.
Hey what filesystem are you using when doing these benchmarks? Also on the stock ROM benchmark on quadrant advanced, are you using the stock unrooted kernel? because I have a stock unrooted v that has never had anything flashed to it and im getting like 480's.
Unreliable
You can't judge a phone when it comes to anything based off of CM7. CM7's stage fright is unstable and basically, skips some of the initial tests and marks them as completed. This causes highly inflated scores. All the 2.2 or non CM7 based ROM's will post more accurate and relevant scores. I have tried almost all of these ROM's and Bumble Bee is the winner for me. Off of real performance speeds, not Quadrant Scores..

True, but that only applies to benchmarks that use stagefright enabled tests, such as Quadrant. He ran his tests on several different benchmarking tools. Besides, we all know benchmarks don't matter, right?

I seem to have better performance out of cm7. I play crusade of destiny every now and then. It lags a bit on bumblebee and other 2.2 rpm's, but its pretty smooth on cm7.

thank you so much for doing this work man. This is exactly the kind of critical information that a newer user like me needs. In fact I consider this one of the more critically important posts / collection of data that I have come across in my searches for the ROM that will best fit my needs.
I've been torn between a few ROM's (Stock V, Harmonia, Bumblee, Gingerbread based ROM) and this data you've provided will allow me to pick a ROM based on 1) the features I think I will need 2) it's performance level relative to other ROM's.
That's not to say some developers might not leapfrog each other in performance, but it gives me a good idea of who is on a path that I also wanna walk on. And right now that's looking like Harmonia to me (maybe Bumblebee as a trial). But I LOVE the absolutely stripped down nature of Harmonia 1.3.1 on my LG OV.
again, thank you so much for this info.
Interesting. I'd love to see you test Jerry's or KemikalElite's ROMs. On a straight IHO build ondemand @ 245-729MHz I'm getting into the 1500s on AnTuTu, low 900s on Quadrant[1], high 9s on Linpack single threaded.
1: Quadrant seems to be rather dependent upon minimum CPU speed here, as bumping that up a bit got me into the 1100s.
Quadrant scores should be completely thrown out. It's easy to optimize code for the benchmark. Acer released an official patch that did just that for some of their Android phones.
Smartbench may be a better choice. I also would like to see one of the I.H.O. builds tested against the other ROMs.

At this point no one should be downloading AOSP due to its lack of support and general lack of being a good ROM. Bumblebee (2.2, most stable, super fast, great battery life, etc, but stock), Harmonia (2.2 with a lil more features), Ath3nos (most stable 2.3/CM7 so far) and Inferior Human Organs (2.3, CM7.1, still some issues but wide open source, actual bug logging, etc.)

I agree with most of this, except whether Ath3nos is most stable, it's based on an earlier source of IHO, and IHO had a lot more fixes since then. I haven't had any issues with IHO (except the documented ones already, a shrinking list), maybe because it's better documented it seems easier to pick at the details. It should be THE Gingerbread/CM7.1 to use for Optimus V right now.

Best Recommended ROM for a freshly rooted EVO 4G

A family member just purchased an Evo 4G with Sprint and promptly brought it to me to see if I knew how to root it, since I've such great success with my HTC Inspire 4G on AT&T. I rooted successfully using AutoRoot v2.5 and the device has SU rights and I've got SetCPU installed, (Max 998mhz, set on demand, 245mhz at idle), and the only add-on I installed was Beautiful Widgets Small Home for weather, which updates once an hour, and the Beautiful Widgets 4-day forecast. The phone is working fine, she called earlier and said it performs all functions and she loves how it navigates, but its KILLING the battery... she's indicating that it's dropped from 100% (overnight charge) to 89% in just 10 minutes of only texting. An hour later the phone is already at 64%. I installed the myn-WarmTwoPointTwo-01-07-2011-RLS5 ROM.
What general recommendations can the community make for a solid ROM that's known to be easy on the battery? She works 12 hour shifts and it needs to be able to survive without recharging, or what modifications I should make to the current ROM?
Last night was the first time I was able to ever play with an EVO, and it's pretty much the same as my Inspire, but it was KILLING me that the power and volume keys are on opposite sides....
Thanks in advance, all.
Change the kernel I would try one of natarchy's maybe 4.3.2 or 4.3.4 sbc cfs havs more.
The sbc on the kernel will let it change to a 100% the stock evo kernel will only go to like 98 maybe 100% but if left on the charger it will stop charging and start to drain but will still say 100% thats why you get that fast drop.

Ya your right thats mybad. But on the title it says "
Best Recommended ROM" lolz
Yeah, I honestly have NO idea what kernel it's running at the moment, as she's not here yet. So do you think the ROM I'm using is good, but the kernel needs updated? Or would it be better to go with a whole new ROM/Kernel combo?
@jadden - I was having a hard time understanding some of your acronyms, as I'm still fairly new in this arena. Would you be so kind as to include links?
Thank you guys SO much for the quick responses!!
rom is great. Evolution battery is crap unless you wanna use a hero on evo.. tell her to buy extra batteries with external charger. There you go. I last all day.. just have to carry a battery around(purse)
Gimme a couple a days to come up with a new sig that is cool.

download that put on the evo sd card dont extract it just drag it as a zip on the sd card and go to recovery and go to wipe cache then install zip from sd choose that zip then when its done installing reboot and now you have a custom kernel.
I would flash calkulin evio3 rom, and then flash the new htc kernal that's from the new sprint ota, this combo gives me great battery life and calks roms are awesome.

Always make a back up of the phone before flashing just in case you run into problems.

Give Deck's a try. It is basically CM7 but optimized for the Evo. I hear the battery life is great with SZ kernel, but I have also heard it currently kills read/write speeds to the sd card.
I personally run Deck's with without flashing another kernel. Battery life is superb.

thats what im running decks rom 1.2x with savaged-zen sbc kernel and have great battery life
EVO-Deck would be a good choice.

I agree with this idea. I tried Decks with SZ kernel as well and got awesome battery life. I have since switched back to CM7 for other reasons (still with SZ 2.2 kernel) and still get great battery life. I would recommend one of those combos 100%. Hope all the ideas everyone's been throwing out helps.

Flash CyanogenMod 7. I cannot believe that nobody has recommended that yet. It's the best of the best. www.cyanogenmod.com

[INFO][DISCUSSION]Renovate Rom Kernel & General Rom related issues

Well since Renovate rom users are saying about to much confusion regarding different topics being discussed in the rom thread we decided to open a thread here.
So you have anything to talk about kernels this is the place. You want to discuss what kinda battery life you are getting with all the many kernels out there, here is the place.
You want to post your battery life results using Renovate then again this is the place to do it...Anything kernel related that has to do with renovate just throw it here and post anything else that you want to talk about RENOVATE..
Enjoy..
And please keep it clean
Ps: Doubt anyone will post here but here it goes
One more just incase
And another one... maybe for older repacks.
Spun out from a JELLIED and RENOVATED One X.
Strongly disagree... Not all users moan... Seen only one...
Sorry Goku...

its ok..i edited that word and reworded the sentence
I think this is a great idea getting renovate about even more plus the rom thread doesn't get clogged up with kernel problems or even looking for re-packs
Sent From My Jellybeaned Note
I suggest we have (repeated) links to repacks here too. Also, it would be nice to make some kind of pro/con for each of them.
I am personally on RENOVATE Final 1.1 stock kernel, which works just fine for me. However, I do miss S2W, and CPU tweaks which I had on ICS (5.8.2), so I am looking forward to flashing a custom kernel.
But not before it's proven in day-to-day use.
Mwilky himself has a 2nd post in his thread consisting of various mods, skins, kernels included. I'm really against a separate thread when kernels with Renovate is concerned. I would have understood if some were talking about the kernel behaviour for a "Y" ROM, in a "X" ROM thread, but that was not the case.

well it is regarding general discussion regarding Renovate and well you can discuss anything you like about it..it is not just specific kernel discussion but more indepth general to be honest
You need to add a link to this thread in 1 of the OP's in the original thread just for reference, maybe in the bug tracker bit and maybe ppl will post here.
I had a really bad time with XM#51/#54 last night, homescreen wouldn't load but the status bar and connections were working plus I could access settings , but even after flashing a different kernel I couldn't get back to normal and was forced to full wipe!
I hear that issue is resolved in the latest version but a few people saying all 4 cores aren't working at the same time, can anyone confirm this is happening on Renovate?
So far Kozmik kernel is my favourite no issues apart from alot of time spent at 400mhz but that depended on what governor was selected!

I was going to repack xm kernel #57 but it seems not all cores are running for quite a few people so maybe I'll give it a miss. Still having fun with #27 here.

I just flashed it and it works fine to me. Only one question if I press left hard button a menu show up with "System tweaks" and if I press this I get the message application not installed. I installed then system tweaks from Play Store but still get the message
nobody ever mention alexs's kernel which started all of this ...
is on XM57 really only 3 cores work, not whole CPU? i have noticed some battery drain more then usual. after all of that i refleshed to stock, think i'm gonna flesh alex original. Or revert back to XM27.. lets see in next few days whats gonna happen...

you know what bud...i think you are right...alex's kernel was the one that started all of this...and you know what..out of all the kernels that was the most stable one...heck might even revert back to that and see how that turns out

Well technically what started all of this was Trip's kernel, but I guess that doesn't count since the was before the source was dropped.

What started all of this was the kernel source!
