Alright, so I'm coming from cm 6 and I was using snap with it. But what I'm wondering, is what is the best kernel for fresh.
Thanks.

I'm running King's latest...#8 I think. Getting 53fps, 1250 Quadrant score with stock 998mhz speed. Seems good so far.
If you want great battery and dont care about the fps cap, stick with the latest stock kernel thats built right into fresh.
best kernel for lastest fresh?
I am using the kernal that came with the rom and it seems to work just fine. i thought the claims on battery life might be over rated but can say that with moderate use i got 37 hours from 100% to 15%. Might try kings again but not sure if that would hurt that battery life.

I promise you that the claims of improved battery life for the new HTC kernel are not overstated at all. In fact... there are no words to describe how much of an improvement it actually is. The theory follows that the other kernels will be re-optimized based on the new HTC kernel.
As above, stock gets the best battery life. If you need the OC/FPS/etc you can try King's #8 (I had stability issues, personally) or #6 (worked like a charm). Currently I'm using the netarchy 4.1.9.1 beta. Battery life could be better IMO, but feels really snappy. LP looks too good @ >50 FPS for me to stick with stock.

I have been running Fresh 3.2 with the built in kernel, but I've also been using SetCPU with a very low performance, battery friendly profile.
My question is whether I should be using SetCPU at all anymore, since I heard that this new kernel already supports throttling the CPU back when not in demand. I've been excited to test out how it effects my battery myself, but if someone has the answer, it would save me a week.

Even if the stock kernel does scale down the voltage to the CPU, I think you would still need setCPU if you want to OC. However, the stock kernel probably does not support OCing. However, I think setCPU could still be beneficial for keeping the CPU running at minimum when the phone is in sleep mode. Then again, that feature could also be incorporated into the new HTC kernel for all we know.
Like someone else mentioned, Kings BFS #8 gave me stability issues, but #6 works fantastic in terms of performance and stability; not to mention, everything works on my phone as it should. I got 2 generic batteries and a charger from eBay for dirt cheap, so battery life if of little concern to me.
Is there a kernel for fresh 3.2 with cifs support?
Just wondering if anybody has tried this kernel yet? Found it over on AndroidMobileJunkie.com (Followed a link in somebody's sig here n XDA that said 1.28Ghz so naturally I was curious lol) Anyways, here's the link for the post over on AMJ. http://forum.androidmobilejunkie.com/threads/kernel-ziggy471-droid-incredible-22-oct.11/
yea ziggy's kernel. It's been in discussion in both of the Desire rom port threads. 1.28 is very rough on the processor though, and mostly unstable for a lot of people's phones (mine included), even ziggy admits it's a risky business, but he has proven it is possible.
I am so tempted to try this, but I'm afraid to fry my phone. My go big or go home mentality may make me give in. Wish there was someone who posted on the thread link
I ran it. No problems a 1.28 but really didn't use it long. Here's my Quadrant post in the Desire Z port thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8775977&postcount=168
X
I'd imagine that clocking the processor that high wouldn't make much difference than say, 1.19GHz.
In fact, in plenty of ROMs I've tried, anything clocking over 1152mhz actually gives me a decrease in my quadrant scores. Not to say its not a stability issue - I'd assume that most Snapdragons actually clock higher than 998mhz, but then are reduced because that's baseline performance, anything less than 998mhz would get kicked.
I've never had a ROM crash, even running at 1.19GHz, but didn't notice any performance gains, plus, unless you just happen to get a chip that is capable of 1.28GHz no problem, it's probably near bottle-neck anyway.
And Quadrant has several variables way outside of clock speed that can pull 1800's, including just your flavor ROM.
Bottom Line: It's not worth frying your phone just for a barely-existent performance gain. If you happen to have a processor that is incapable of stability at 1.28GHz, you might fry out some transistors, then get stuck with something that freezes if you clock it over 700, let alone the 998 stock.
For me personally 1.28 is no improvement over 1.152. In fact, it gives me worse benchmarks.
sorry for repost
I gave this kernel a try and I actually prefer the newest HTC 2.6.32.17 charging time has significantly decreased battery life has increased and the performance is really responsive and smooth. My quadrant scores are nothing impressive pretty average but I would rather all of the above than a high quadrant.
I tried this kernal and my camera stopped working...

Lou hit the nail on the head. I love the .17 kernel. Im using the new guy with great performance, battery life, charging, and neat transitions. its like a new phone.
I'm using this with a vanilla froyo ROM and my battery life is amazing. Haven't noticed any freezing or any program not working.
Wow!
Thanks for all the replies guys, I think for now I'm gonna stick with the stock kernel also, I just remember back when I used to run KxK's kernels seeing great benchmarks and battery life I was always wondering if there were any faster out there lol

There's always faster, the question is will they work. lol
When I'm running the newer Sense ports, HD or Z, I can only run 1.113, no matter how much or little voltage I give it. When I'm running an older one, I can go all the way up.
As for stability at 1.28G, I need to work on the voltage more, to find the sweet spot, I just did it 'cause Jugs said one of his Bravo buds had it working, so I had to try.
I'll keep playing with it if people are still interested, otherwise, I'll just keep at the lower speeds.

Just loaded up your AOSP on Ruby 1.1.4. Running great, 1600 in Quad at 1ghz. Everything seems really smooth. Are the voltages undervolted at 1ghz? Maybe you could start your own thread?

By the way, my post wasn't meant to disrespect your efforts to 1.28GHz, I'm just giving fair warning that someone could possibly burn out their phone if they jack it up all the way. When I'm ready for an upgrade, I'll probably put this thing to the max.
Thanks Ziggy

I didn't take it as such, and I agree with you fully. I prefer somewhere between 1.113 and 1.15. That's the reason I included the init script to set the max at 1.113, which I find very stable and fast, hell I'd say 1865 quad with ID's Z port isn't too shabby at 1.13.
I should be able to get 1.28 more stable with playing with the voltages, it's just that takes time, and I wasted too much this morning doing both AOSP INC and Evo kernels, so I'm worn out for awhile on kernels. I still need to fix the Evo for puertoblack, since it appears I left the debug port out, so no adb for it. lol

Im stone stock right now. Do you see an actual improvement in apps that need the extra O/C HP? I have one game I bought that seems to be a little choppy at times, 9mm HD, and Im not sure if its the games coding, the fact that it maybe having a problem with ICS, or just not enough hardware HP to be fluid.
I OC'ed when I first got the phone but quickly dropped it back to 1200. This phone doesn't need overclocking and if you are noticing lag in games it is most likely due to poor coding by the dev for either ICS or dual core phones or both. If it is lagging on a 1.2 GHz dual core and it is our hardware think about people running it on the Inc 2 with a 1 GHz single core processor and basically last years tech. Our phones should be fine to run most if not all games for about a half year or maybe a year before OCing will really be needed.
Why don't you just do it and find out? It's really hard to tell because no kernel is a stock kernel with 1.35 GHz / 1.4 GHz.
All these kernels featuring OC have additional features which means that it could be the features/tweaks that are fixing it rather than the OC itself.

Well,...Im just pretty content with how it performs in every other aspect, except for this one game bugs me a little. Ive been ROMed and O/Ced on this not too long ago, and TBH, theres always some sort of little thig that turns me off about it. A spontaneous reboot here, a F/C there, and I find myself going stock again. I would do it in a heart beat if it didnt mean having to set every last detail back up again when I unlock the phone.
And yes, being virtually OCD about this phone sucks, lol.
I have a question as well!
For those under-clocking or using UV kernels, do you see a noticeable improvement in battery life? I have a GSM sock GNex and the battery life is atrocious.

Should of unlocked the bootloader day one before playing with the phone your phone still remains stock. Just the bootloader is unlocked, you'll virtually feel no difference. Except the fact that you have to relock for warranty purposes later but you'll wipe everything so that is always good because you don't want to exchange a phone with all of your passwords.
@andythefan: Yes there is a huge battery difference. Visit the Franco Kernel thread in GSM forums for people's images of battery history.
Flash the James Bond kernel so your gpu will be upped to 384mhz. It is in the development section.

Other kernels also have this feature. A lot of them do.
@stevessvt: In the myriad different combo's I've flashed (ARHD, Franco kernel, APex Kernel, bigxie ROM, AOKP rom, stock kernel, OC/No OC, Unvervolting, and 1 other kernel I can't even remember) I've yet to encounter a single random reboot, FC, or battery pull. I've also flashed countless different mods and basebands, etc.
It's all about doing your homework and really reading through threads before flashing and making sure different stuff is compatible and doing nandroids.
I can honestly say running a non-stock rom/kernel makes a noticeable difference in response and performance in daily use. Its really all the Kernel IMO, ROM's just give you features. I've however never noticed anything from OCing.
@andyfan: what build are you on? 4.0.2 has the hands down best battery life, and 4.0.3 with the Franco Kernel is nearly as good as 4.0.2 was (4.0.2 for me meant ~3% drain in 8 hours)

For now any phone usage will give you terrible battery life due to the high power consumption of the screen especially if when it displays white onscreen content. Average CPU usage is very low unless you're running benchmarks consistently. Therefore UV tweaks have low impact on usage battery life.
With that said if your battery is irregularly draining while idle something may be active in the background.
Franco has made many tweaks to his kernel to reduce idle power consumption. He's gotten it down to about less than 1% drain per hour which can give you over 2 days of idle battery life. Just for ****s and giggles I have achieved that with less than 30 minutes of screen time with LTE enabled.
Franco's kernel is the best I've used in terms of overall battery life but none of the OC/UV kernels have significantly increased my usage battery life.

I am running CM10 M2 on my Samsung Galaxy S3 I747
Now my question is which kernel do i use because i would like to OC my phone but it has to have some speed and keeps some battery life.
I don't want to have a lot of speed with hardly to no battery life, i need a little speed plus good battery life if possible.
So if anyone has any suggestions please post

You can try all that work with CM10. It's a preference thing. I'm using ktoonsez. You can OC and UC.

Im not saying there aren't any others as i have only used ktoonez's kernel, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756776 simply because there is, IMHO, no need to. He has versions for each of the available android versions for the i747...obviously you would want to use the AOSP JB based kernel under CM10. Packaged along with the kernel is ktweaker which is an app that gives you control over the clock speeds, under volting, governors, schedulers, plus a bunch of other options. If you overclock your processor you are going to drain the battery faster, you can compensate for this by under volting the frequencies however pushing the CPU too hard can shorten the life expectancy and under volting too far will cause severe system instability. Im not sure how much experience you have with OC/UV'ing but its basically trial and error until to find the right balance of speed and stability that is right for you.Just be sure to read and follow his instructions carefully and dont mess with anything in ktweaker you aren't 100% sure what it does, and as always make a backup in your recovery before messing with system files.....happy OC'ing.

There is a thread dedicated to ktweaker settings on the i747 HERE that would be a good place to start and get an idea of what you are doing. There are also several topics that discuss the different governors and schedulers, what the differences are, advantages/disadvantages to each etc. You can also search google for a plethora of information regarding OC/UV'ing, although most of it will pertain to desktop processors and video cards. While the voltages and frequencies will be significantly lower the same principles apply with mobile device chips.
What are your guys' opinions on the performance of these two kernels? From what I've gathered it seems like KToon's kernel is meant for overclocking, but then what would one use task's for?
Task's recent update to his kernel makes me want to try it because I've been using KToon's kernel with the ktoonservative governer and row scheduler UV'ed a little bit but unlocked to 2.1GHz and have been having some pretty bad battery life in mu opinion, do you think switching to task's kernel would be better on the battery?
Well what do you guys think?
Fun Fact for the day. Versus threads get shut down in no time here on XDA.
P.S- Why wouldn't you just try it first before making a thread about it? Kernels take about 3 seconds to flash. Also. No one can tell you that you will get better battery life on one or the other considering all of the variables. We are all in different locations, use different apps, have different settings, and we all use our devices differently. You need to try them both out and see which one works better for YOUR device.
Man why are ya giving me a hard time? You kicked me out of your thread, which I understood and respect, but then you come here and tell me the same thing you told me before and that my thread's gonna go to the bin in no time.
I'm just trying to find out what the DIFFERENCES between the kernels are, because it isn't very clear in reading the descriptions/OP's,
They wouldn't co-exist if they were exactly the same.
I'm not too interested in tweaking the hell out of my device nor do I care too much about overclocking...I just want a lot of screen time and the ability to play games and SMS with little lag.
I have tried out both kernels and didn't really notice much difference because I didn't really know what to look for.
Like, okay or example, it seems to me that your kernel is less for tweaking and isn't for overclocking (max 1.6GHz or something?) while KToons can go to 2.1.

I'm not giving you are hard time. I'm just telling you the facts here. If you're not into tweaking and messing with things then this is simple and really shouldn't make a difference to you which one you use other than battery life, less lag, ect... Which no one can tell you one is better than the other for. Flash one and don't touch the settings for it and use it how you normally would for a day or two. Then do the same for the other kernel. See which one gets you the best results. Its the only way to find out. Not quite sure why you're refusing to take my advice here. Its pretty straight forward.
There's kernel source in both threads that explain in DETAIL all the DIFFERENCES between the two. It literally only takes seconds to flash and see for yourself. This shouldn't be a big deal at all.
I think they re two of the same.Task just doesnt want KT to know he borrowed his kernel...lol jk. But seriously,they're pretty similar.KT seems better on the performance end but I never got the exceptional battery stats that ppl keep posting,IdK it may be something on my end. On the other hand, task's seemed better on my battery as I could not noticeably see my battery drain during use as I did on Kt's. Furthermore my phone does get hot really fast on task kernel,I'm guessing its cuz we use performance control and can't really play in the voltages as much.

I have flashed both kernels.

Your kernel being capped at 1.6GHz probably is better on battery but I also have a sixaxis controller and like to game, does it affect 3D performance at all?

This is the kind of posts I'm looking for in this thread. Do you personally find task's kernel's performance to be any worse than KT's? Cause you said bettery life seemed better.
Also, are the same governers and I/O schedules available between both kernels? The only settings I'm used to using is ktoonservative and row, I wouldn't really know what to do in performance control to emulate what I've done in KTweaker.

He cannot answer this question honestly. He doesn't have your device. You're not understanding. He can have the best battery life possible on my kernel but if you use it, you could have the worst battery life possible. IT'S DEVICE DEPENDENT. Will you please just do yourself a favor and take 3 seconds, flash the kernel, and see. You say you've tried them both, but you are also asking about playing games and what not with them? You would know if you had tried them dude. Same goes for the governors & schedulers. You would also know that if you had actually tried them both. I need to ask you this. Why won't you just try them and see for yourself. Are you really the type of person to flash what people tell you to your expensive device?
Look dude. I'm only trying to help you here. I'm not quite sure why you wouldn't just take my advice here. I have quite a bit of experience with this stuff and I'm trying to help you get the best experience possible. But it seems as though you think that personal opinions of others are whats best for your device when in all reality they are not. Real life testing is what will prove to be best for your device.

What You won't have on underwear kernel vs kt747: ktoonservative gov, vibration strength control, screen off max freq control, screen off gov control, fast charge, MHz range from 96 to 2106, undervolting capabilities and adjustments to governors and schedulers.
If you don't want to undervolt or tweak anything, I recommend you use underwear kernel. It is stable fast and oc to 1674mhz is alright for any gaming and it doesn't affect 3d performance.
If you wanna use ktoonservative governor then you will have no choice but to use kt747.
But anyway, what you really need is to try both and familiarize yourself with their features.

Comprehensive list. I like it. Now I gotta figure out which gov I'm gonna use when I flash the underwear kernel.
Thanks everybody for their input, if anyone else has anything to say then please go for it!

Ohh Thnx man. While you're here any suggestions as to how I go about fixing/finding out which apps are responsible? Also,any combinations/settings you might recommend trying with your kernel,despite the phone dependent variables and what not. Thnx )
Running the underwear kernel today, changes frequencies min and max to the farthest it can go. Will report back with my results.
