How many .35 kernels are available? I'm only aware of Umaro's and the stock CM kernel. I'm trying to achieve better battery life, so what kernel are you guys using?
So far, using Umaro's, I'm getting regular battery life, nothing special. Haven't tried the stock CM kernel.
Are they any other undervolted kernels available?

There aren't any others so far. Umaro's kernel is really good for battery life, however it's not up to date with the latest kanged nightly from yesterday.
Ahh, I see. Thanks for the info.
What cpu settings are you running?

Right now I'm using a kanged nightly with the "stock" cpu settings of 245MHz min and 1024MHz max, but with the interactive governor. With Umaro's kernel I had at 245 min, 1017 max and the Smartass governor. The smartass is pretty good on battery.
u made all the right moves all i would do is dim screen and keep runnimg apps low.
pimped out g2
btw pyromod 2.0 345 ghz min 1405ghz max on smartass. i fully charge bout 1 a day
pimped out g2
Pershoot released his kernel the other day pretty nice and smooth

Alright I'm sleepy so this will be in rambling form but...
I've tried Umaro's and I'm not sure if it was the undervolting (which I haven't looked into tweaking) but my phone kept stuttering no matter which governor I used. I was using Htcclay's Super CM7 1.8 with cpu set to 245/1113
I also used the stock kernel that's been on CM7 with no problems and average to good battery life (10-15 hours of active use: texting, browsing, few calls, and playing the occasional game)
Most recently I've used Pershoots which I had heard worked great. I myself love it. Almost same battery life as stock kernel but everything felt just a little bit smoother performance wise.
Here's a link to Pershoot's thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847672
The stock cm kernel in my opinion is finally good enough that it doesn't need changed. I have always flashed pershoots and occassionally others, but it truly does not need supplemented IMHO.

I'm using savaged zen, and I get around two days of battery on a charge, with normal use.

Using Pershoots latest kernel, have nothing but good things to say about his kernels. Always my go to kernel.

You're running that on Vision? I can't seem to find it for our device.
Stock CM7 kernel here. I run 245/806 Interactive with automatic brightness. I've found that when wifi is on, keeping the cell radio @ 2G only works wonders. Wifi is set to sleep on screen off, but not when plugged in. 1 day 7 hours on this charge so far with 23% left. I would consider my use light to moderate.

I'm wondering where can I download the Umaro's kernel. I check out his github (https://github.com/umaro/htc-kernel-msm7x30) only to find out that the source is available.
Hello, first of all this is my first post and thread. I have read the rules and searched for a similar thread. I am not stupid and I know how forums work. Now my question is: Which is the most performant kernel for the MT4G?
Know to be more specific, I am looking for a kernel which a very high OC and UV rate. I want something that can easily manage clock speed when it needs it the most. I am interested in genereal boosts of speed, higher I/O managing speeds, better gaming experiences and a longer battery life. I know that the kernel doesnt do all of that but it has a major impact those aspects. I am running CM7 nightly 144. Im hesitating between Faux123 Cm7/AOSP 2.6.35.13 kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113697) and thederekjay 2.6.35.13::demonSPEED INSANITY kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113554). I appreciate anykind of constructive feed back
I personally use demonspeed-insanity. It'll clock up to 1.8 atm. Couple that with the SMARTASS governor and you get a pretty decent balance of battery life to performance.
can't go wrong with either kernel, i've used both and their both outstanding in performance and battery life.

Thanks for the feedback guys . I'll probably try both of them. I'll post some quadrant benchmarks and battery life results.
Faux 123 1.0.7 is the best IMO, great uv and quadrant scores, got 2600+ on stock and battery life is great.
I have used both kernels and got great battery life from each one. I prefer Faux's kernel for AOSP roms, and thederekjay's kernel for MIUI roms. Faux updated his kernel to OC @ 2.03ghz and its blazing fast
Faux's all day!!!!
He has put in the most work and has the best performance by a wide margin.
I'm currently running turl1's v8 with the kernel that comes with it. I've read about people having this issue with faux'd kernel and that they fixed it by using the one is turl's build. I've attached a pic of the Time in State screen from SetCPU.

I am using jokersax 0.3.1. Same issue.
do you guys have profiles set?
Only based on temperature. Do you?
I have profiles set when the screen turns off and such.
I still have idle problems, but its masked a little if you underclock to 912. and with hardware acceleration you can hardly notice it.
I I did have the idling problem with previous builds so I switched to turls1's. When the new 0.3.1 came out I switched back. I also changed from setcpu to antutu cpu master pro, and now it idles correctly.
I'm using turl1's V8 Kang with faux123 025 beta kernel (1.0Ghz), and here is my CPU freq for something like a week.
I use a profile for screen off- 216-608.
Now mine looks a lot better. But I didn't change anything..??
I'm not using a profile on mine either. I think I'm going to try faux's kernel and see if it improves any. I think I would get fairly great battery life if I could resolve this issue. I got down to only 84% after moderate screen time and video and music playback today with over 8 hours off of the charger. Most time was spent in 312Mhz with 608Mhz being the next highest and 216Mhz as the third.

My cpu seems to be working great on turl's v8 with the default kernel. I was getting pretty poor battery life on joker's ROM, but on Turls v8 I'm getting the best I've ever had; stock or not.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
Running Jocker's latest with the latest Faux 1.3GHz kernel.
Idles mostly at 456MHz.
Something wrong there.
After flashing faux's 1Ghz kernel and setting a profile for screen off @216Mhz it has greatly improved. Although it seems any time the screen is on it never hits 216. My battery life didn't seem to get any better either which I find odd.

another vote for turl fixing batt life.
No idea why some people are so good on faux's but a large proportion have these massive problems.
I switched to turls v8 with the kernel it comes with and now my battery life and cpu usages are great!
told ya, mine looks around the same
tried to feed it back in jokersax forum, not sure if he's picked up on it or not, theres plenty of people saying 'great batt life' but theres enough of us out there who aren't getting that (and whom get decent results with turl). Maybe there are subtle hw differences in certain batches or revisions of the SoC or something like that.

I've never seen my atrix idle like that.
are you sure? Mine idled similar to that in CM7, now CM9 turl build.
In jokersax build (stock kernel) 0.2 I never got below 456Mhz consequently heat and battery died in ~10% an hour increments even if I didn't touch it
I have two HTC EVO 4g phones with CyanogenMod 7.2 RC1 | Tiamat_Evo-v4.1.0-sbc (CPU governor: Smartassv2 245/1152). They are also running SuperCharger v6 script for memory optimization. What I'm looking for is optimal battery life, stability, and not very much focus on performance. Already searched Google for awhile and the answers were never clear and led me nowhere.
Bump. Also need a mod to move this to Q&A.
Well you might as well underclock; no need to be over a 1152. Additionally, play with undervolting to see how much the evo can take. Keep the radios off when not needed.
I'll do some underclocking, but undervolting seems kind of sketchy. The kernels are already undervolted.
+1 for undervolting and tiamats kernels are not undervolted by default so go go vipermod lol
what kind of battery life are you getting now?
IncrediControl or vipermod? I don't know what kind of battery life I'm getting since its my parents phones. I'll try undervolting out, but just want to know if the app is safer or the script. Your only supposed to go like -50 under for both right?

Ok thanks man, yeah I ended up using vipermod -50 and underclocked the phone smartassv2 - 128/652. Working out great so far.
I'm a super heavy user and have tried all the big name roms, but none of them gave me the great combined total of speed and battery life, I get bewtween 15+ hrs other roms I got normally 6-10 nitrous Rom with underworld kernal and uv'd via vipermod using extreme mod, and still runs fast and I'm oc'd to 1.03
This is a picture of what I consider normal use, heavy I consider screen on all day, normal is like 3 hrs of Pandora text here and there played games probably for about an hour total, phone calls, surfing forums, using gps results:

This worked for me. Thanks
I've had a lot of bad experiences with aosp roms... GPS not working, poor data connection, and "cellular standyby" taking up an obnoxious amount of my battery... I've tried CyanogenMod and deck 1.3 with savaged Zen and tiamat kernels
Maybe I just have bad luck?

The screen is what drains battery so much and yours was barely on =p
Hey guys.
Looking for a good kernel for my G2(info in sig) ... Looking for a good overclocking kernel, What do you use?
Any recommendations?
Dorimanx allows you to overclock to 2.8 ghz but what are you gonna use that for? The phone gets extremely hot in very short time. What is it that 2.8 ghz can do and 2.26 ghz can't?
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Dorimanx is very good if you want to overclock it and keeping battery drain at good level.
Best for me is from bruce.Is absolutely amazing and very snappy...
Thanks guys, Is Dorimanx good for everyday usage too?(without overclocking)
iam using dorimanx 5.8 for 2 days now and its stable until now. no issues at all.
but there is one thing to know about this kernel. it offers alot of options via stweaks but its recommend to use the profile settings that are comming with the rom. they are most stable.
I've used Dorimanx for months now , but switched to Bruce2728 kernel ,and i stay with it.
Very fast , smooth , no lags and very good battery life.
I would recommend bruce's kernel that can be found here.
Fast and reliable, good battery life.

Can't beat dorimanx for jb or kitkat. He's a very hard working guy. He never stops improving things.
Simple Kernel v6 overclocks to 2.5GHz. Simple means only Interactive governor included. Works well. 1%/3hr standby. Testing Vellamo bruce2728's kernel rules in multithreading even without overclocking.
