hi guys I'm new at kernel section. I flashed Franco Kernel over PA rom. Can someone suggest me some CPU GPU (and if there's a more section that we can change for better battery life and performance) settings ?
There's no need to double post this again.
Leave the settings at default and give it a couple of days.

Hi,
so, i'm looking for a good kernel for my N4, but... I can't really decide. I heard that franco and faux's kernel were good, but i can't see why. What's the difference between those kernels ? What's the features ? What's the difference between the stock one, and those one ?
Thanks for your answers !:good:
I'm running the matr1x kernel and I've liked it. I tried the others and this one provided the best battery life.

bricked kernel is the best!
look at this!

Sorry to bump this post, but i'm still looking for the pros and the cons of each kernel...
I didn't find any changelog or features for franco's kernel, and faux's kernel seems good... But i don't have my N4 for the moment... So i can't test them ! Thanks for your answer
Franco's kernel gets a changelog posted every time he does an update, it just isn't added to the first post. If you use his app (free version available) to download the newest kernel, the changelog is given through that as well.
I don't know how Franco compares to other kernels since i haven't tried them, but all the standard options seem to be there. Latest update added gamma control.
I believe every device reacts differently to kernels. I personally get the best battery life from Matr1x.

Guys I have a question.
I have stock rom but I'm using custom kernel expecially for UnderVolt.
I want UV not for battery life, that IMHO don't get incresed that much, but for heat reason.
Is it possible to have a stock kernel just with undervolting? Would be that hard to build such a kernel by myself?

No, you cannot undervolt with a stock kernel. If you know how to enable undervolting in a kernel then good job!

Why would you prefer stock kernel vs other custom one? You get better results witth custom
In the Harsh kernel thread he's provided stock kernel with UV several times you can do a search there or ask there, also Harsh kernel itself is modified stock kernel with tons of optimizations, UV etc
Just wondering how the battery life and performance is with this set-up. If you feel a different kernel gets better battery life or performance with ParanoidAndroid, please let me know. Any comments and suggestions is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
PA + Franco is excellent.
PA + Trinity is also excellent.
Both are great kernels that deliver great performance and long battery life.

Hi, currently im running Omega v44.2 on my sgs3-i9300 with stock kernel, i was thinking to mix this PA 3+ and franco.kernel r20 for i9300
anyone ever try this setup? please share what's your experience with this. Does franco has any latest kernel release for i9300?
i'm a heavy user, current setup gave me like 15 hours battery life, i need more battery life due to frequent traveling.. thanks in advance!!
=======================================
Current Setup:
Device : Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300
ROM : Omega ROM v.44.2
Kernel : Stock
Previous Setup
Device : Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300

Hi,
I think you should ask about that in the GS3 thread.

I've tried all the kernels. I'm on the latest PA as well. Motley's was the best for me I regularly get over 4 hours on screen and 12-20 hours total time. I'm a pretty heavy user, I use like at least 1gb a week. The key is to always have your screen brightness at an optimum level and make sure there's no stupid syncing stuff like facebook. I only sync gmail, contacts, and calendar for 3 gmail accounts. I have "faster" binned CPU if that helps at all. I use trickstermod with a -75mV UV. Diff phones react to kernels diff. Try all of them to see which is the best for you. Most of the other kernels gave me similar battery life to stock which was about 3ish hours on screen and 12 or so hours total time and some didn't respond to UV well. Good luck with your journey :good:
my bad!

oops, my bad! ok i will move this to SGS3 thread, thanks!
hey sorry guys for bothering but im a noob at roms. i just installed PA but cant figure out how to install franco kernel as well. its an .img file but clockwork mod wont let me use that file. thanks
...Personally after just switching to franco kernel with PA from the stock mako kernel I've had a pretty shi**y experience. Today my phone lasted only 10 hours with 50 mins screen time... wtf?? I'll definitely be moving on thankyou. I have a fast binned CPU and I do run alot of auto syncing apps.. however on the mako kernel all things equal i could easily get 2-3hours screen time and 18-20 hours of battery on time

Franco also has .zip files for CWM/TWRP. img files need to be flashed in fastboot mode.

Hi guys,
I have old Nexus 7 32 GB WIFI, with Tegra 3 CPU.
Here are the condition :
- JB 4.2.2
- rooted
- Stock ROM
- Franco Kernel 3.1
- Stock Recovery
There are two strange thing, I found :
1) It seems that my Nexus 7 don't have all CPU freq, for example, there is no 1200MHz freq
2) How low can it be under volt? take a look at the attachment, I UV -400mV, it is stable, but can it UV really low?
Flash latest kernel and cehck the kernel thread for possible problems/solutions.
Franco kernel have different cpu frequencies then other kernels.
It doesn't make sense to have every frequency increment. UV has been broken in Franco kernel for some time now.
Also, you didn't specify which version you are on.

Thanks for all your reply guys,
I think it is a kernel problem that doesn't work with UV, forgot the version, cause now hase changed to MKernel, seem UV working correctly.
Hello everyone , I want a kernel for my og. Nexus 4 , preferably a good,stable one with over clock possibilities and double tap to wake if it's possible because I want to give my phone a new life , like how was when I buyed it thanks everyone any help is well-comed !
I tried all kernels ...but non of custom kernels are good...hells doctor is quite well but not perfect..using euphoria 5.02 stock kernel..and found better than any one..
In my opinion the semaphore is the best custom kernel when taking consideration of stability, performance and battery, otherwise each stock is the most stable ofc, because of the unbreakable relations between common development of kernel and rom by developers.

just search kernels with the features you want and try them. FYI the thread will close shortly. no best... threads allowed because best kernel for every individual is different
Thanks guys for help I'm on Franco kernel but it seems it does not have dt2w or it does but I can't find the option? Can anyone tell me if this kernel support dt2w or not or reccomend something similar?

Franco doesn't have dt2w.
There isn't a best kernel. You have to try kernels and see what is best for you. There are some great kernels: franco, hellscore, hellsdoctor, semaphore, matr1x, mirage, faux123, unleashed, ak, bricked, nash...
Check their threads to see if it have dt2w.
