looking for the a decent kernel for the S4, so far ive heard the KT a lot, but I heard its Loki'd, so unusable on Canadian S4s.
Any suggestions?
I use ktoonz kernel on Canadian version, but if you look in the op of ktoonz kernel, Canadians are to use the tmo version kernel.

I think the stock kernel is the best now
I am using omega rom and stock kernel, the battery is great
Thread closed as its a Best kernel thread.

If you see in the zip there's boot.img and boot.lok meaning can flash it without loki-doki
Good Info Venom
Never thought of doing that
It is lokied, unusual for i9505 devs--or at least I thought so--
as far as kernels (not stock), is anyone using this, or is everyone using KTkernel?

I'm using kt's kernel. No problems with it at all, the ktweaker app is nice too; though I still use trickster mod for kernel tweaking.

Hey guys,
I just got an S4 and have rooted it. I see that some users are able to use I9505 roms for the I337M devices. I want to keep the stock ROM, but want to install Adam Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2281738
Can I do this for my I337M? I want a kernel that supports STweaks, but keep stock ROM... There are a couple features in STweaks that I really need, especially the Negative Colours toggle feature.
Thank you.
Yep... flash away. We can flash international i9505 and tmobile ROMS/kernels without a problem

Did you try it out?
How was the performance?
Hello all...
My boyfriend has the S4 for AT&T and loves the setup I have on my S3 with CM11 nightlies. Just curious as to how stable they are for the S4. I'm the Android nerd in the relationship and I don't want him to have any issues, since we don't live together.. yet
Or should I put another KK rom I saw over in the development section? Is CM10/JB more stable? How's the battery drain? I want to improve his phone, not give him problems LOL. He's completely stock right now.
I already know how to root and all that, I don't need instructions just advice for the best AOSP ROM/Kernel out there for this device.
Thanks in advance!
Depends on which firmware your boyfriend's phone has. Unless he is on the older firmware 4.2 MDL, there is no way to flash any AOSP rom, custom kernel, or even custom recoveries except Safestrap recovery.
With safestrap recovery, you can only flash certain touchwiz roms.
I'll have to check it out when I see him in a cpl days

Personally...I prefer custom tw roms on this phone..tw is actually better looking and more polished...and alot more features...check out Graviton 1.7

I spent a few days messing around with a CM11 1/10 nightly, 1/12 nightly, and the M2 snapshot.
I was really quite impressed with just how smooth everything looked and felt.
Definitely a step up from CM 10.2 and 4.3-based Carbon builds.
I had best results with the 1/12 nightly and the M2 snapshot.
I was experiencing odd reboots and glitches with the 1/10 nightly.
Mine is a pre-MF3 phone, obviously.
rule of thumb with nightlies is that they are not always an indication of an official release. You could get a bad nightly but the nightly before was fine. So far they are fine and nightlies are generally for flash-oholics
Yep. If you're deadset on a relatively hands-free CM11, I think the M2 snapshot is probably the best bet.

OK so I took a screenshot of his system info and sent it to myself LOL
Baseband I337UCUAMDL
Kernel 3.4.0-453947 [email protected] #1
Build Number JDQ39.I337UCUAMDL
Is this the firmware you were referring to? I asked him if he did any system updates and he said he has not.

Yes, that's the right firmware. You can go ahead and use CASUAL, and then flash whatever you like for him.
I have a N900W8 from Rogers in Canada and was wondering if there are any kernels people would recommend to use
Preferably some for AOSP and others for Touchwiz as I flash back and forth
I have found a few kernel threads but its never too clear if my device is supported or not
Thanks
You can use any t mobile (N900T) kernels. I prefer lean kernels
Sent from my SM-N900W8 using Tapatalk
Yeah, any N900T kernel is fine. I use Civato's SneakyKat kernel personally.
Thank you both for the info. Im never sure when I get a new device what works and what wont work.
As for the ROMs is it the same thing?
Can international ROM work as well like on my galaxy S4 just need to flash a kernel?
Hi everyone, I'm new here.
So can anyone will help me find good kernel for my phone? I was having some problems when I used stock rom 4.4.2, i downloaded the KTSGS4, AdamKernel, Ausdim and Arter97 kernels and put it to sd card (i did choose the TW one), when i flash each one of it, i saw the samasung logo for 1 seconds and directs me to odin mode, only working kernel is arter97 but it makes my phone hot and extreme battery consumption.
I was using cm12.1 before and kernel is one from arter. I dont know what to choose whether AOSP or touchwiz because i dont know my phone whats in it. Is custom kernel will work for custom roms only? I dont if its gonna work for stock rom too.
If you want my specs so here:
Galaxy s4 (Korea SHV-E330S) KitKat 4.4.2
32 GB Internal and 2 GB Ram
QuadCore 2.6 GHz

Custom kernel works on certain ROMs which the kernel is designed to. Even if you're on stock, you could anyway install custom kernel but you need to watch out the annoying Knox notifications.
