I have the syndicate loaded ROM with xtreme kernel. V1.0.1
I noticed there is a newer version of the kernel. I'm am very much a noob so I need someone to tell me step by step, how do I flash the updated kernel?
Sent from my Epic 4G using Tapatalk
ok, figured it out
Any difference after the new kernel?
I am using the Syndicate ROM but the extreme kernel was too buggy for me ( too many fc's) even after mutiple wipes. I went to the Fluffkernel and it is awesome, I am using the battery saving one and I am still at 50% at the end of the day.

So far I notice an amazing battery life since upgrading, 74% after 12 hours with minimal usage (6 hours asleep). Before, I would lose about 40 percent with 6 hours sleep.

After calibrating, draining and recharging and wiping stats a thousand times, this is what I get:

2 hours of screen time there, that seems about normal to me. I'm lucky if I squeeze out 3 hours of screen time throughout the day.

It depends entirely on what you are doing. 2 hours of screen time (even in ideal conditions) will most likely get through half of your battery.
What screen brightness settings do you use?
What were you doing with the "screen on"? (i.e. gaming, video etc).
What kernel do you use? Try the Faux 1.0 Ghz kernel (if not already) and consider undervolting.
I imagine with the combo of Faux's stock kernel, undervolting and perhaps reducing screen brightness will see 5ish hours of screen time.
It was on around 85% brightness due to being under direct sunlight.
My kernel is faux's 1.45 for CM
Over 80% of the time the clock was around 200, 400MHZ as stated by SetCPU, and both those clocks are undervolted by 50.
I was browsing the whole time.

Wow no wonder. Roaming for 2 hours with brightness nearly on full will definitely drain your battery.v Plus the 1.45 Ghz kernel overclocks the RAM and GPU also. You might want to get an anti glare screen-protector and flash the 1.3 Ghz kernel and use wifi.

Umm... wifi wasn't an option back there, and I don't use screen protectors. BUT I didn't know that bit of fact from faux's kernel, I'll put in the 1.3
BTW, Green power pro does help a ****load on keeping battery alive.
ps: anyway to control RAM and GPU clocks the way we do with SetCPU with the... well... cpu?

Why don't u go to a stable version and see if the battery drain continues there also ? You can always create backups to restore right ..

Welcome to cm7. I'm lucky to get 10 hours light usage with faux 1ghz kernel undervolted with a screen off profile of 216-216mhz.

Have you tried installing better battery stats and CPU spy to see if you have a rogue app? You should be getting significantly better battery life. How is your cell signal?

I don't believe setcpu functions correctly for dual core devices, I remember reading, albeit a while ago, setcpu only effects 1 core, leaving the second untamed.
Please correct me if I'm wrong. Stock cm kernel has plenty of ass behind it, no ones playing bf3 on their handsets....yet...

In all actuality, android isn't optimized for dual core devices either. ICS will be.

Watchdog shows the suspend process and android media process taking up about 30% usage constantly. Signal is strong when I'm at work, constant 4-5 bars H+
Even after a full wipe and clean install of CM7 those same processes throw up alerts immediately, I will get al alert for the suspend process every few mins.
Background data off, no email syncing or anything. I'm lucky to get 3 hours screen on time or pandora streaming. I bought a new Motorola battery about a month ago and I don't use GPS or wifi.
Running stock, aura or homebase and the drain is gone... they aren't any good IMO tho.
For now I'm carrying a spare charger everywhere I go till the nexus prime is released.

Hi
Latest LPA ICS update is draining my battery badly, 50% drain over 5 hours with gps+wifi+3g off and no talking or doing anything..
reading about all roms since 2 days but still confused.
which rom should I go with? my first try...
also I have rooted ics stock rom with stock recovery and kernel.. how to proceed?
Read the threads to find out which causes your drain.
Im on LPA with Gl-notecore 1.3 extreme kernel, no issues with battery drain.

I use the latest goku kernel. With this kernel the wakelock problem is resolved. You can use an app like cpu spy to see if your device goes into deep sleep state. Since you mentioned such an intense battery drain I suspect your device not going into deep sleep.

Hi to you all,
Have you done any benchmark quadrant type with modified kernel?
For my part in stock kernel I was running about 5050, which is very promising when the capabilities of the beast!
I look forward to the first kernel in flashable zip Franco associable with a rom type aokp
This association did wonders on my old galaxy nexus!

Not massive on bechmarks and a big fan of Franco.
I cant tell any day to day difference in the performance between any of the kernels currently out however Matrix is giving me more batter life, (more screen on time) than the others.

I just flashed franco kernel myself with paranoid android. Going to see how it runs for a few days.
For those who have used matrix and franco extensively care to share your thoughts, pros/cons for each?
However, if you put any trust in Quadrant scores you could use them to prove that dancing naked for 5 minutes in your garden affects device performance

Tried faux123, found it undesirable with current my settings.
Didn't want to commit to non-stock ROM for franco. Would love to try it though.

Yes sir, franco also uses stock rom.
I have gotten the best battery from matr1x compared to Franco. I got 2 1/2 hr on stock, 3 hr 40 min on Franco and 4hr 40 min on Matr1x I'm still running stock otherwise but I think I'm gonna try experimenting with Roms tonight. Any suggestions I want to stay as close to a stock look as possible but I'm willing to bend for battery.

You must wait at least 1 week, in order to get the kernel settle in your phone..

Without turning the screen off, of course you will get a lot less. Because screen drains most of your battery during use

Here it is for Aurora 5.0 u18_entropy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36291776
There are two different choices V1 and V2, use V1 it has the same entropy values as dzo's kernel. If you are using 5.0 u19 there isn't yet ezet's kernel for it.
