[COMPARISON] Speedmod or Super Optimized Kernel

2 kernels for galaxy s froyo has recently intrigued me, namely [KERNEL][OC-UV-TINYRCU-BFQ-RAMZSWAP] Super Optimized Kernel (4_2 STABLE) (2010-10-19) by laststufo, and [KERNEL] SpeedMod Froyo 341MB RAM [K7 Test] [I1.2 Stable] by hardcore.
This is the speedmod kernel
and this is the super optimized kernel
I know speedmod sets the minimum clock speed to 250/300/500 depending on which one you flash and includes some fixes from voodoo and also the ULK, while the super optimized kernel includes ramzswap which decreases ram usage virtually, while adding the same implementations such as voodoo fixes and ULK.
So which one is better in your opinion? Do state your reasons.
-PS: I didn't really understood the meaning of Hz but now i kinda do thanks to Bos$. The 250/300/500 is not minimum clockspeed.

None of which. I prefer YA-OK, which gives me the most snappy feeling with a slight OC/UV that does not degrade system stability or battery life.

AFAIK, SpeedMod doesn't set the minimum clock speed like what you said. Read the thread for more info.
I would go for SpeedMod, haven't tried the other one yet.

I thnik you should read more about linux HZ parameter In this case HZ doesn't mean Hertz.

Great topic!
Guys tell me... Which one is better for better battery life?
YA-OK, SpeedMod or Super Optimized? (and best lag fix for stable and fast) all tweaks on?

well, here's mine for the day:
loads of emails, about 8 blutetooth phone calls, combination of 3g, wifi etc. i think the key is using superpower app which really makes a huge difference. mine is set to enable data every 30mins for 3 mins. also using BLN and noLED.
but most important is i've never had a crash or freeze with this combination of rom, kernel and baseband:
Samsung Galaxy S 8GB GT-i9000 (UK unbranded version), Class 10 16gb microSD
Baseband: ADJP3
Firmware: DocRomV8_Nude&Raw.ADJP5 (rev 4)
Kernel: zenkinz YA-OK build 30 OC 1.2ghz, Hardcore Tweaks, BLN ON, Overkill lagfix without binds, NoLED
Theme: JPA_V7_Androdena_Galassia_Proper_Optimised_AOSP_Ex tended_Circle

Sorry.. could U state exactly which lagfix U used in ULF?
There's 2 overkills.. JFS and EXT4.
I used JFS overkill and has freezes twice and moved down to JFS advanced.

I don't really like ya-ok. Looks like a more basic version of super optimized kernel.

Don't just look, feel it
Thx to tokyo, it's my fav kernel now.

Probarly the best kernel out there
Came from SpeedMod kernel from Hardcore, which is also extremely well functioning (I1.2 stable verison). However, on my SGS, the YA-OK kernel is way faster and the feel of the phone is simply astonishing.
I'm on DOC's 7.6.2 (WXJPA) and with adv. ext4 lagfix + IOsched tweak. Phone is truly flying and finally faster than I can press the buttons - awesome!
Can't say much about battery for YA-OK, but with Hardcore's SpeedMod my SGS typically lasted 2 days (best 2,5 day). And that is push email (work and gmail), 3G on, no wifi, no gps, no bt.
Let's see how this YA-OK will do on battery? I'll report back later on...
So far - extremly well done work Zenkinz

I'm using Speedmod K7-300Hz and with lagfix voodoo. (because of battery life)
There seems be a little laggy on my phone, I may think about other kernel, like YA-OK.
But battery lif is what I concern about.
Please let us know how about YA-OK on battery. Tks!

I've jumped to ya-ok, tried all the optimized kernels available. ya-ok feels the most smooth and balanced out, of course that's just me. you guys try it for yourself! lol
can't test battery yet until tomorrow
ps. shouldn't really post this in dev though.

awesome man....great..
thanks for the info...
everything explained by the screen shots..
Thanks again..

The poll needs YA-OK and Raspdeep's Mod...
At the moment im on YA-OK as it has similar overclocks to raspdeep with the tweak of color and sharpness
YA-OK is a winner for me at the moment

Kernels comparison

Hi guys!
Great devloppers do great things!
I want to open a discussion about all the SGS kernels!
Today,a lot of kernels are out, and it's really hard to say who is the better. So for a better choice, share your user experience!
SpeedMod
Project Vodoo
Super Optimized Kernel
DamianGTO Steam kernel
Tegrak Kernel
FuguMod
Personnaly i prefer Speedmod, but i just test Speedmod and vodoo. To me Speedmod is faster than vodoo, and the battery life is better. I love all the speedmod tweaks
Now it's your turn to give your feedback, give a mark, and compare!
! I don't want to create war between kernel dev, just compare and why not help dev with user experience !
PS: sorry for my bad english ^^

IMO Voodoo kernel is faster and more stable than hardcore's one, but speedmod has better battery life. It's only my opinion.

Tried SpeedMod, Voodoo and Super Optimized Kernel.
I love SpeedMod, as he say it is fast, stable, low battery drain, easy to use and thanks to Supercurio's Voodoo Sound Radio is also usable now.

i am using voodoo

Yeah Vodoo Sound is so cool

I've tried Voodoo and SpeedMod. SpeedMod seems to have better battery life.
Interesting thing - maybe just slightly off-topic, but I'm not allowed to post in dev section yet so... it's more a SpeedMod 13A vs SpeedMod 13B thing.
I'm on Doc's 9.6.6 ROM (JPY modem) and was using Speedmod 13A. Despite trying every method I found to fix it, GPS (lock and accuracy) was horrible. Today i changed to 13B and GPS performance is ok again. This seemed odd to me, as the only thing changed was the kernel. Anyone have some insight into this?

SuckerPunch
I use Sucker Punch, built off of Speedmod, the dev keeps it updated and build off of speedmod on a regular basis. I recommend giving it a try, especially if you are at all interested in OC and UV
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=930679

Hi.
I'm using speedmod also. I find it quite stable, good battery life and fast. Although I believe that most of the improvement came with 2.2.1.
What I love more in speedmod is actually credit of supercurio work... Which is the sound, it's so much better than with the stock kernel...

Played around with settings some more - enabling the lagfix for DATA_LOOP, CACHE_LOOP & DBDATA_LOOP (making all "=ext2" instead of "=false") destroys GPS performace for some reason. I only use default lagfix now, GPS is fine.
Will report back on this specific issue when I try Voodoo kernel. Very curious how SpeedMod compares to Voodoo on this criterion.

I love speedmod... Also mainly it is the only one that is able to change to warm colors. My default screen came with a slight blue tint. Now my Super AMOLED is beautiful again

I like SpeedMod for Great Sound -especially radio fm, low battery usage, and color temp. option.

IMO speedmod is the best! easier n i think more stable than others..

Speedmod ... with all the goodies of speed and battery life there is cifs and tun support

G'day people, I've tried all of them except FuguMod, and from my tests running the stock firmware I9000XWJS3 voodoo was faster than SpeedMod but Tegrak was the fastest out of everything. Only thing with Tegrak is that it doesn't use ClockworkMod and has a market app to adjust it settings. plus it adds an extra boot menu at the beginning of every boot. its also not compatible with some apps and its version of root doesn't use Busybox which I've noticed causes some problems.

For Bluephantom:
Wooow you tried all of them ^^
You are so brave lol. So accorded to you what kernel is the best?
Vodoo is really faster than Speedmod? I never noticed this. I find Vodoo not smoothy.
For ALL:
What do you want on kernel to be the best?

I like SpeedMod, regularly updated, stable and fast enough.

Speedmod for me

3 KERNELS
I guess there are just 3 different KERNELs for SGS, the others are just tweaks for Stupy's CWR,
appreciate all the work for Super curio, Lastufo and Stupy
There are no best kernels, just optimized settings,
I tuned my sgs so my hard died (mine was the only SGS bricked in this region), now i use stock ROm JPP (one of the universal best) and a modified kernel and have the same working speed as Darky Doc ROms have.

I've only tried SpeedMod and Voodoo, and for me Voodoo has a little extra oomph. Phone seems snappier and faster in general.

I'm with doc's 9.6.6 JS5 /JPY modem /Speedmod k13c kernel and my battery drain is kinda stressful Did anyone test different kernels with this rom?Which one has the lowest consumption? (I lose about 2& per hour idle/2g/no wifi or data)

[kernel] di11Pickle kernel

well, since this has been out and included in my rom for over a month now, i figure ill put it out here for all others to use as well since its been perfectly stable, smooth, fast, and very good on battery.
Kernel Feature's
-JPX source-patched with hardcore's k13a

[KERNEL][KB1]eXistZ KB1 Froyo Kernel #9[01JUL][Voodoo Sound 9, Lagfix & Color][OC/UV]
This kernel is for FROYO KB1 ONLY
This is a BETA, so there might be a few bugs. Im still in the process of adding features, so please bare with me..Ill update the post as I go along
As of right now, there will be no support..this is tagged BETA for a reason. However, its been stable for me
Voodoo lagfix converts /system, /cache, /dbdata and /data to Ext4 with optimized parameters for speed but also guaranteeing data integrity.
Also, it configures the write behavior of Linux to prevent lag from happening, plus apply some memory management providing a better balance than stock settings.
Big thanks to Hardcore, Xcaliburinhand, Supercurio, Raspdeep, sztupy, Designgears, Glitterballs, Morfic, Trasig, and eSPyel

WARNING
Do NOT use setCPU.. The OC/UV code is actually wrote for Voltage Control.
There are 2 parts to the OC/UV code, enabling "States" and setting "Max Clock".
With setCPU you cannot do this and it will cause problems with stability.
Just use Voltage Control..<--you been warned!
NOTE
When flashing a new kernel/rom your battery indicator may be off.
This means that you can have zero battery drain or a huge battery drain at the beginning.
Let the phone go through 3-5 complete charge cycles for the battery to recalibrate itself.

Will test this during the weekend. Great to see this.

Since this is a voodoo based kernel...can you add dock support so that the audio plays correctly?

Should it be noted that this is a captivate kernel requiring a captivate modem? Or are i9000 modems OK to use with this?
Also does this contain the ~200 patch?

Getting some odd system hangs, not lag so much as it just seems to freeze for a few seconds, and doesn't catch up like a lag. It just skips to the last action.
Didn't mess with OC/UV yet.
Looking forward to checking this out more tomorrow.
Thanks for getting this out!
Edit: SpeedTest results are showing typical upload speeds and about 40% faster download for me.

So the difference between this and those 2 other kernels you made is that this is made of KB1 source?

[KERNEL][KB1]OverStock v1.3 341MB, Voodoo Sound, Color, Lagfix, BLN 4/2/2011

This was made at the request of fellow XDA member/co-worker Rockasama. I showed him what I was doing on the Vibrant and he wanted something like it on his Captivate.
This kernel should be used just like a stock I897 kernel. All the same modem rules apply. What you get is a fast, efficient, and simple non OC'd kernel. Current testing shows mid 1700 to low 1800 Quadrant scores and 14's in Linpack. He's been running it for a day now and everything seems to be working. I don't have a Captivate so he's my guinea pig right now. As I make updates to my Vibrant kernel look for those to be ported over here.
Includes:
Version 1.3
Voodoo sound v7
Version 1.2
Voodoo sound v6
Version 1.1
Working Voodoo sound v4 with no issues in call quality
Version 1.0
Voodoo Sound v4 (Make sure to grab the Voodoo Control App from the market to fully utilize this feature)
Voodoo Color
Voodoo Lagfix
CIFS
BLN (Needs neldar's BLN Control app from the market, or grab the pay version for some sweet blinking action and more)
FPS cap removed(turn screen off once before running Quadrant to see it)
341MB Memory
Based on KB1 I897 Source
Use this at your own risk. Always make a backup before flashing. I would also recommend using neldar's SGS Kernel Flasher from the market to backup your current kernel.
I would like to thank the following people for making this possible:
Viralblack for the boot image PNG
morfic for all the help and making time to answer my questions
supercurio for all the Voodoo magic he has worked on SGS devices
neldar for the great BLN patch and Market app to use it
Download, Flash, and Enjoy!
OverStock-I897-KB1-v1_3.zip

Updated 3/12/2011
Look for updates and fixes to arrive on Monday evenings.
Messed around yesterday trying to make the kernel work on any modem. Not much success... I'll keep trying as I get time.

Downloaded.
I'll check this out over the weekend.
Thanks.

Trying it now.
For those that said, it'll take at least a couple of weeks to get a modified kernel out after the source drop, eat your words

Thanks SOOO much for working on this the past week or more, it has been rocking my battery time and speed. If you guys and gals aren't aware, this vibrant kernel version has been getting all the good press over on their forums!
Glad to have you with us over here cmenard!

First run of quadrant after reboot was 1328, second run 1771, third run 1812. This is a bit odd, because under the old setup of KB1 with voodoo lagfix injected by supercurio himself, Quandrant was alway hovering around 1550, never varying.
Addressable memory is upped to 341MB as advertised. Voodoo Control app recognizes the kernel. BLN , I don't use right now.
Great work. Will keep this kernel around until something comellingly better shows up. Any chance on adding OC/UV options to this?
P.S. - I guess the Quadrant score bump on second and third runs might have been due to turning the screen off after first run, resulting in FPS cap removal. I also like the OverStock boot logo.

Going to download and try this out. Thank you for your work on this.

NICE! Will take it for a spin this weekend!

Very interesting. I'm going to have to try this out over the weekend.

Sounds like the audience chip is not getting used. Probably incomplete Samsung code. Can anyone that built from previous i897 Samsung sources guide the OP on what to add to invoke the audience chip logic. Since he is from the Vibrant camp, this is likely a new issue for him.

I am sure you have to stay with KB1 modem.

Thanks for the feedback. We did our testing on Serendipity with it's included I9K modem. That was one of my concerns, was using the Voodoo sound with the Captivates unique sound architecture. I'll see if Rockasama wants to nuke his phone and run Cognition with the KB1 modem and we can start narrowing this down.

The code is in there. I patched Voodoo sound into it and may have missed something.
