Hey Gioers! Finally our long ignored phone has gotten some attention. So that now many things are available, what are the things you would love to see the most for Gio, and in case of roms, which features?

Long battary life is always nice
Able to overclock with the right kernel installed
The best tweaks avalable for this dev. in the rom
Faster read and write speed
Small system rom
Thats what i think of atm. But i still new to Android.
Long battery = underclock.
Overclocking available.
Improved speed = good script.

I'm using XDA app and been searching forums on what kernals do, I'm running cm7 latest nighty with tiamat latest version. Not sure what all the features are , I know it does overclocking and under and voltage adjustments, just wondering if it was worth going to tiamat from cm7 kernal and if it gives better performance and better battery? Thanks

Different kernels work better for different phones... give them a try (give it a few days) and see which works best for you! Like you said, undervolting, under/overclock, BFS, HAVS, CFS, all features to increase battery life and/or performance!
Thanks for reply

The kernel is the part of the operating system that is in direct control of the hardware, its the lowest level of the OS. It controls the frequency the CPU runs at, how much power to pull from the battery, how to schedule I/O, how many frames per second animations run at, and things of that nature.
In my opinion, rooting is almost useless without flashing a custom kernel. Thats really the only way to increase the performance of your phone.

Can anywone tell me a best rom for save battery ?
Now i have Oxygen 2.3.1 Bravo
I would think the Oxygen you're using would be one of the better one's for battery life. Don't go for Sense rom's as they'll drain your battery real quick.
Well anything oxygen based, or the gingervillan roms
Took me a week to finally get it right, but I've managed to get both speed, stability n a Schweeet batterylife
If I get the time this weekend, ill post how I did it, and all the steps from stock, out of the box, to end product

I find that the insert coin rom isn't too bad on battery life. Well version 1.1.1 isn't. not sure on the newer versions though
Most AOSP ROMS have great battery life. But much of the battery life is to do with the kernel too, so picking a good kernel is paramount.
I'd agree on the kernel bit, but also, how you have android configured in general around it can have a noticeable effect.
The right rom, kernel, and also userspace setup/configuration all adds up

Also black background for AMOLED screens is worth adding to the list.
Im curious guys on this battery subject?
I'm currently using aurora V3 but even before that I'm lucky to get a day out of it.
What potential increases am I looking at here?
Many thanks

There is no way to guess or add a multiplier from your rom ro another to see potential increase unfortunately. It all depends how you use the phone. If the screen is on all the time, you wont see any increase in battery life as ROMs and kernels cannot control the amount of battery a Screen uses. This is a constant.
ROMs and kernels optimise CPU so that les spower is used, therefore things that use CPU will affectively waste less power.
The only way to test / compare is to flash something else and use it the same as you do every day.

Thanks for the info; need to do abit of research into this kernel business as I've seen them mentioned alot and nodded in agreement (I have no idea!)
Click the link to guides in my signature. Read the kernel info thread. May help

I don't mind if anyone throws me a pm in regards to seeking more out of the Desire.
And rootSU, we could always do a combined guide on the Desire and how to get the best out of it, if you like

Ah I've got my share of guides out there. It's your turn now

You could assume stock, then at the bottom add root only and mention kernels and set CPU, autokiller, autostarts etc etc
Rightyo, need to do shopping but will be back shortly
Might see what i can work out
AOSP roms are the best for battery of course, but if you like SenseUi, I recommend You InsertCoin 1.1.4 and kernel from -SNQ, (his kernels are better for battery from bananacakes)
Hi guys. I have Mugen Power 3600mah battery. So I Don't care battery life. I want very strong Xperia Play. Which settings should I apply ? Which rom should I use ? Can someone give me a tips ?
Unlocked bootloader, custom kernel (like doomkernel), fast rom (cola or Gin2JellyBean)

i have use custom kernel,but how to use it?
what app that use to make unlock bootloader have an effect?
I'm using TrueAnchestor Rom and I think its awesome.
I use Gin2Ics or well it is now called Gin2JB which is a really nice rom. (GingerBread to Jellybean/Ice Cream Sandwich)
Then I use the voltage control app to overclock, my stable settings are 364-1400 on scheduler bfq and Smartass v2.
hey man
your phone performance is not related to your battery , you just increased your battery life !
all the roms are the same , some of them are a little bit better and some of them are a little bit buggy ! even if you overclocked your kernel , it increase your performance slightly .
be hunest with yourself mate .
I suggest if you want a strong phone to start having it lift weights. Yes it might take a while to build muscle at first but its worth it in the end. And if you are really impatient, you can always give it steroids.
So the other day I installed an unofficial version of cm9 on my Evo. As many of you know, cm comes with options to over clock out of the box. Sadly, with the stock kernel you can only go so far. I found a new kernel online, and flashed it onto my phone, only to find out it ruined the rom, forcing me to reflash cm9. I was wondering if there are any kernels that I can install to overclock my phone further? Pics included

atyoung's Mason ICS kernel should work...
May I ask why you have the desire to.overclock so violently? Most the time, underclocking will even show no loss In performance and save battery. All times I have overclocked, I've never noticed a major difference.. it may be slight but not enough for me to care..
why is your min/max the same?
The rom I downloaded is a little laggy, just wishing to speed things up a bit.

Ummm... You'll get terrible batt life with those settings... Min/max are the same

One more thing.. pegging your CPU at max ghz will eventually destroy your device. The EVO is made with a single core 1 GHz snapdragon and so anything really over 1GHz will really put a strain on your processor. Best advice would be to either flash a new kernel, ROM, or find some tweaks to decrease lag. 1.2GHz isn't healthy for your phone...
guys ,what is the best tweak or script for stock rom ,to make it run without lag ?
1) No ROM, ever, runs without lag. Maybe God's rom but thats it...
2) There is no best tweak that makes it run "no lag". You should explore the world of tweaks to see whats best for you.
Personally, from statistics I recommend AdrenoBooster. I've heard it increases the Antutu scores of many GB phones by around 2k?
Here it is. In case you're wondering, yes it needs root.
Its true adrenoboost increases antutu score by 2 k.but practically its of no use.I removed, it.now I am using adrenaline engine.
