Any idea? Stability + good battery?
I was using Legendary before, awesome battery life while at 1400Mhz all the time. It was amazing.
Anyone know which kernel I should use now?
YMMV but this was my battery today with the newest samurai kernel tanto

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.

Bad question....like what's the best ROM. Every phone and every user is different. You have to try them out to see what works best for you.

I am pretty much a noob here and know better than to ask any "what's the best....." question. I have read it dozens of times that your phone and your use is different. Might as well ask us how you should dress too.

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

If you want to keep close to stock: aprosamurai's.
If you want to live on the bleeding edge: earthbound's
I prefer stock, though I may give earthbound's another try now that he made some updates

Just like t says what is either your favorite or best performance you have gotten out of a kernel and why. I'm currently using fresh 3.3.0.1 and cyanogenmod 6.1 and going back and fourth. Have only used stock kernels but am wanting to explore and try out some other ones to get the most perfprmanfe and battery out of my evo.

Nopee You Just Choose The One You Like....Dead Horse Its One Of The best .. and overstock too
I personally like Overstock with Bionix. I get about what everyone else is getting with this set up, 1700's, for the quadrant. I read too many issues with Deadhorse vs Overstock so I went with it.
FTR, I was keeping up with the different builds right up to maybe the last two so I am NOT saying Deadhorse is bad. Many people have been satisfied with it.
Deadhorse from what I read is a little more customizable than Overstock but when it comes to the kernel I don't like to get that technical. I like mine in "here you go" form.

I was running Overstock 1.3 and it seemed like my battery life was lower than it should be so I switched to categorically worthless and battery seems better. Could all be in my head tho.

but not to discourage tho i saw a 1.3.2 test. hmmmm
I may have to check out bionix thanks for the heads up.

I have been searching and reading up on other roms, just wanting to try different things...so far I haven't come across one to pull me away.

This rom is crazy I haven't charged my phone for almost 3 days!!
I've been using Bionix almost exclusively for the past year as other Roms had broken or non-working parts. I recently tried Trigger and love it. I definitely put it up there with Bionix for quality, speed, and battery life. Bionix 1.3.1 is gold, but Trigger 3.0.1 is what I'm running now.

both of those things have nothing to with Trigger itself, but an uncalibrated battery, and maybe a bad modem flash

Honestly, I like it too. However, I got a boot loop when I tried to flash with my custom made theme. I will try that later on.
As for now, most of you guys who bragged about this rom are of the hook. lolz
I'm back with Bi-Winning. After down grading the kennel from stock 2.4.1 to 1.5.1, the battery life is so great.
If the want a quality kernel for your aosp ROM.....Go get it in the Dev section. This kernel was released before the original evo source was released. Now Its Updated!!
Tested: all sensors work properly, finally, on gingerbread roms. Gps works, real nice!

Try that in command prompt after a bit and see what you get
With the sensors working correctly....battery life has got be superior. Rite?
Go get this from kernel manager people! Top of the line
It's been reported the battery life is pretty good. I think it'd be that much better with SBC, though. Hopefully someone can mod it into the kernel.

Some of us don't want the SBC kernels. I have never had problems running non SBC kernels. Personally I like to plug my phone up when I go to bed 12 to 1 am then take it with me all day. I usually unplug around 8 am.

Exactly. Once again, NOBODY can tell you what the best rom for you is. Everyone has their own wants/needs, and not to mention the same rom will not run the same on every single device. Try a few roms, and find one you like, simple as that.
I use the Miks rom and it run flawlessly
I've been running nitrous for awhile now. The dev is extremely good at taking requests and keeping everyone updated on his progress.
Thanks a lot for the suggestions. I tried nitrous but the battery life blew dogs. I'm in SOS 1.9 ics I love ics are there any other good ics roms out there.

Anything MIUI has been awesome for me...So customization & runs fast, everything works besides 4g but I cant get 4g in this area anyways...Plus the themes change up the look of your phone alot!! BTW Why is ICS Muiu running Mason kernel the best? Does GPS camera video ect work?? How do I get video or movies from my phone to work on my TV thru QQ player?

I am an OG Epic user, and the biggest (only?) complaint I had and have seen with our ICS ports is that the lack of battery life renders the phone unuseable. Is the same the case with the Evo? I see a lot of ICS roms and folks here seem to like it, but I've flashed the Evo's on my account with some roms lately that score unbelievable battery life so I'm hesitant to change.
