Well how about that, Adrynalyne, I gots me a new kernel! (4a) Keep this up and I'll have to sport ya some beer!
(I think I already owe you a case)
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
thank you kind sir!
ohh downlaods 4a FAST
Smooth as always, don't bother downloading anyone else's kernels.
Any chance I can get a 4a thats 1228mhz at stock volts like the kernel we spoke about from te.zip?
I will buy you a beer
Ughh, seriously adrynalyne?! So I was all happy with Drod's kernel yesterday, now I think I might just have to flash these kernels (b or c) to test out because they look THAT AMAZING! You developers are just aweomse for the Thunderbolt! So many options! I love it! I don't know who I like most! Thanks again
I'm loving the b kernel. Nice work! thanks!
A couple questions before I make my decisions. Is 4a the follow up for Kernel2.0 from the previous thread that was posted (i am currently using adryn kernel 2.0 and wasnt sure if this was based on that). Second. If i wanted to install the oc kernel just for the heck of having it, if I didnt overclock it and left it at the regular 1ghz, would it still run at a higher voltage and affect battery life or would it be the same volatage as 4a until you actually overclocked it? Please let me know. Thanks.
Any chance we can get a pure stock kernel as either a zip for clockwork or a bootloader install so we can revert if needed? I think the one in rom manager still breaks wifi. Thanks,

There is a boot.img file in the original basic debloat thread which I believe is stock also the stock kernel on rm is stock and wifi did work for me with np.
Just reread what you asked for obviously the boot.img has to be applied in fastboot with adb. But again rm does work.
Just flashed the 4a kernel and everything is smooth as always.. thanks man

You can clock it with setcpu to 1228 and get the same result here. Is that ok?

Yes, it continues from 2.0.
If you use an of kernel and choose not to overclock, you will not run at the higher voltage.

Good work.
Good job as always. I have a quick question. This new awesome kernel runs undervolt and only overvolts at speeds greater than 1.3GHz?
if i just install 4.0a, I do not need to install set cpu correct?
This phone at 1ghz is plenty fast
Possible bug, when screen is on and using smart ass clock never drops below 768. When using on demand it does. I was running protekk's battery sipper before this and smartass would indeed dip below 768. Is this by design? Is that how smartass is indeed supposed to work?
edit: I see that you metion smartass is not working completely correctly
Great work
Great work.
hi i just bought a ns4g and i was wondering if there was a one click root ? i searched and found some but none for 2.3.4 ns4g only regular nexus... correct me if im wrong please and also i read that aosp has built in tethering and i was wondering if im not rooted or anything i wont get charged by using tethering? and last question i come from a epic and my nexus' speaker sounds really low is there a mod to this in the roms or is that a phone problem?

It might help to flash a custom kernel that supports voodoo control. Be careful not to boost the volume too much and blow the speaker. As with all mods, once you depart from stock there is a risk of screwing things up, especially if you don't what you're doing.

There is, but I don't suggest using it... it is easy to root the phone, just look up the guide and have fun. It's fun to figure out how to do stuff.
I have not heard of anyone being charged for tethering, but it does not tether 4G.
Download voodoo control from the market (requires a custom kernel, I suggest matrix kernel), it can raise the sound level.
have fun!

Both support bln, voodoo, overclock up to 1.4 MHz, and undervolt (for better battery and less stability).
Netarchy supports several additional features, such as touchscreen sensitivity tweaks if you tweak the config files. See the OP for the full list of features.
Matr1x runs at 1.2GHz by default (i.e. without changing the settings in Set CPU). It includes a custom boot animation, which you can change back if you like. Overall, it seems to be more stable, a bit smoother, and better for battery life. Compactness, stability, and battery life seem to be higher priorities to the dev than adding exciting new features. It is less tolerant of undervolting, if that's a concern. Turn off things such as wifi and 4g before flashing, to avoid issues.
Both devs are phenomenal, and I don't think you could go wrong with either. James Bond is also quite popular. For either, cfs seems to be slightly more stable than bfs for most people.
Note: Put the flamethrowers down. These are my own personal opinions and observations. YMMV
Matr1x kernel is very good i use it as my daily, if i were you i would just try them all and see which you prefer.
I have heard nothing but great things from both devs and their followers. I will probably try Matr1x first because it comes with Mikeyinid's rom already and his rom is about what I am looking for.

Big Ups to RandomKing for this one. I can't post in the development section just yet, but this is by far the best battery life ROM(if not ROM period) for my specific Epic. I've not had ANY of the issues others have reported with either version. (I think my Eagle worked fine because I already had Chris' EG22Plus Kernel Loaded). Right now I'm draining 1% or less an hour when idle, and barely 3% with keeping my background data and auto sync on for work purposes. I think it would be even better if I wasn't using the gmail app.
Everyone else who may have tested this on both the kernel Egret comes with, and EG22Plus Kernel. Which one's working out best for you so far? I've had such luck on EG22Plus I don't even want to try running without it.

Similar pleasant, stable, battery-efficient experience here too in using RandomROM 2.2 Plus from the ACS Updater. I've stayed with the stock Vision kernel as I'm happy with that for now.

Yeah props man! This rom is snappy. I am enjoying the "stock" kernel rather than the cleanEG22 kernel from performance but I have noticed the clean kernel left more available memory after a task killer or memory clear. The more I kill hrough the day, the less and less availble memory every time even though the services and programs do not show as running anymore...

This being covered time and time again in many different posts over many different threads almost warrants no answer but ill give you one and here it is
try them all flash one per day till you find one that works for you the way you like it everyone uses their phone differently so no matter what you will get different results than i do or the next person that post on this
It's really up to you, try them out and see what you like the best. I've tried all 3 kernels currently out right now and they all work pretty good. The two I usually stick with are shadow kernel and the samurai kernel. Shadow kernel is nice and makes everything feel real snappy. You can overclock to 1400 mHz and the battery life for me is good. The newest shadow, tanto, overclocks to 1500 mHz and works with voodoo control. Haven't gotten the chance to really test battery since it just came out but so far it runs pretty good. Just test both of them out, you can always flash over another kernel.

Also close to stock kernels like aprosamurai's. He likes to keep his stockish with a few tweaks and some new fixes. Just my opinion of what works best on my phone. Others like earthbound's are too tweaked for me but his is really fast and bleeding edge. Bbelos's are also good.

I'm using shadow now and have used apro's too and they both worked great. You need to experiment with them, and you're going to have to tweak to get better battery life. I had several trying to constantly run and none of them were things I use a lot so they had to go. If I wanted super battery life I would have bought a flip phone and not a micromini laptop, and I wouldn't have such a joyful device to tinker with.

Stock is always going to be the best for wanting nothing but the simplicity.
Put it like this when i buy a car, i put bigger tires on my car for grip, and better handling. But i know i will loose some gas mileage but not alot.
I'll put a turbo and some internals into my engine to gain in power but will loose gas.
But if we can put bigger tires and a bigger turbo but still have the same gas results as stock, Then why not do it?
We all benefit in one area and thats why custom kernels are there for those who want options that stock doesn't provide.
Stock= Base Model
Custom = Fully Loaded
Simple as that. So everyone should try different kernels and then reply not saying oh this is the best. But say IMO i prefer this over that simply because of these reasons. Everyone will want a specific kernel because one may like different things about the different kernels

No such thing as a best kernel. Some phones like certain kernels more than others. Experiences vary.
If you're looking for kernel suggestions I'd go with Franco or Trinity by morfic (Google to find his kernel as it isn't on xda).
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
This is really subjective and is something you would need to test out on your own to get any solid answers since there's so many factors that could affect the outcome.
Thank you but it was just to see what others recommend. I've heard good things about the matrix kernel
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Also when using those kernels download the app trickster mod it'll let you customize the kernel settings but don't touch anything you don't understand because you might mess something up. Franco and morfic have paid apps that customize their kernel but trickster is a free alternative until you commit to one kernel

Nothing against math kid but (not saying he does this) but there are some shady developers or Rom cookers who say they added their secret special tweaks to boost speed or performance. I don't believe it because it's placebo. If there's no proof in the source then it doesn't exist.
Franco actually says what he did, and you can see it in the results. Plus he's very adamant about replying to feedback as long as it's not a silly question like "can I under volt using this kernel???" There's a reason why he has 20k thanks
But either way enough of my rant. Hope op finds a kernel he likes. I'd start using the most popular kernel out there and use it for a couple of days. If you aren't satisfied then try another. Satisfied but want to see if you can do better? Go ahead and try. They're all free anyways, the beauty of xda

I really don't care much about undervolting, I think in the end its more placebo than anything. Sure it might help a little bit, but not as much as users think it does. Aggressive cpu frequency management, core management, now thats where true savings come from in my opinion.

I don't really undervolt my phone and have pretty good battery life as it is. I didn't undervolt on my Galaxy Nexus either because it had something called Smart Reflex undervolted for you when necessary. more info @ http://www.ti.com/dsp/docs/dspcontent.tsp?contentId=52746#a18
---- Franco isn't saying that there won't be UV support but as of right now he's focused on other things and will add it when it becomes more stable. And I agree with him on the second part about there are other parts of the kernel that can be worked on to have better battery life rather than just having people UV as the solution (for now).
Edit: there's a reason why his thread on GN has Views: 4,859,042 http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p163/gbd270/views_zps2644eff7.jpg
Even there's no UV on his r14, this kernel is very stable and I've a (very) good battery life
I really appreciate all your responses, so what settings do you recommend for best battery life on Franco's kernel?
