What kernels you using? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Looking to try out some new kernels. Currently on cm10.2 on stock kernel. I've tried matr1x and franco. I'm looking for something with long battery

Im using franco's and I find it awesome. There could be betters I think... But it depends on the usage

I flashed the mplus kernel last night and so far it's looking good. I am using PSX ROM

Currently I am using Franco's kernel r181. I have gradually tried some other kernels but I always end up going back to franco's.
At the moment this build has given me 1 day and 6 hours (including 2 hours screen on time) and I still got 50 % battery left - in my opinion it's pretty awesome

I'm using Purified kernel with Carbon Rom and after trying every kernel I'm staying with Purified.
Wasn't impressed by Franco kernel or Matrix for that matter.
I would suggest either AK kernel or Purified if you want battery and performance

franco r181, seems to be the best one for what I need.

Flashed it and my whole phone had errors. System, NFC, phone all apparently stopped working ... So I flashed cm10.2 again and back to its stock kernel.

this is a nexus. most roms are based on clean aosp.
you probably come from a legacy device, its very different over there. cm in these forums plays a prominent role because they enable other roms to function through their device trees. its not needed here. on nexus cm is like any other rom.

I understand that mostly but still roms in the development section here have a cm based kernel and a regular. Some are universal and state that.
For instance I use matrix kernel now and I am running it with Minco... But what if I used paranoid android or aokp... Would I use the matrix cm version or matrix regular.
Thanks for the help.

You can use any kernel to run on any ROM of your choice. To answer your question, if you're going to use paranoidandroid or aokp, you will have to use the regular matr1x kernel as it is designed to work on any ROM (it works on cm 10.1 too..I think)

The kernel developers will tell you in their OP on which versions you can use on what ROM. If they don't tell you, you can pretty Much install it on any ROM.

If you need to know if they're cm based or asop, it is stated in the title of the ROM of the thread.

cm is aosp based. most nexus 4 kernels are compatible with most nexus 4 roms(if not all).

which kernel for PA rom should I be using?

Im on the lastest PA rom, Mar18 as of now...
I have been using the the halfbreed kernel for the last 3 releases and didnt seem to have much problem...
but now with faux and franco kernel making advancements.. should I be using those instead?
I´m running PA since 2 month and i tried Franco´s und Harsh Kernel, but the Stock Kernel that comes with PA is still the best performing one for me.
Matrix here and yes running great! Mpdecision enabled

It depends on you. There aren't any kernel that you "should" be running. It's entirely up to you.

What kernel?

Hey everyone... Just got home from buying my nexus 4... rooted a few minutes ago and got pa installed. Some of the kernels I used on my galaxy nexus aren't here which I'm sure will be OK.... Are there any kernels that stand out above the others in any way?
Thanks for the help!

I'm using Franco Milestone M1 kernel. Seems to be a great combo with PA with about 4.5-5 hrs of SOT. But try other kernel for yourself and see which one is best for you.

I have tried every kernel here, and the best one that works for me is the enhanced stock kernel. Can under clock, under volt and is the snappiest one . Battery life is good too, plus touch control also works

Link?
Will this be compatible with 0.33 radio and tmobile lte?
It is the enhanced 4.2.2 stock kernel by Faux, you can download it from the first page of his thread.
Yes, it should work fine with .33 radio and LTE.

that has nothing to do with flashing kernels. dont listen to anyone that says they recommend to, theyre clueless. btw, try trinity kernel. and while youre at it, every kernel here is good. find the one that fills your needs and that your device likes best.
OP as pointed out....
Thanks

whats a good Kernel with Purity rom?

Im currently running Purity Rom with stock kernel. I dont like franco or faux kernel.
Which is good for purity rom?
Use hellscore it is a very good kernel. Also try purity kernel if you don't like hellscore.b
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
try them all. every device is unique, and reacts differently with every kernel. plus, we all have different wants, needs, and desires. to find YOUR perfect kernel, you would have to try them all.
First try the ROM kernel, if its good why to change? If not I recommended Franco or semaphore . good luck

There is a thread full of options and results. May I suggest you simply read the Purity thread
I recommend NEO kernel as its the fastest kernel along with hellscore which I heard is also quick. Battery life/stability/customization is very good on them too

Can't flash Kernel

I'm running CM 10.2 Nightly 9/27/2013
I'm trying to flash Franco Kernel Plus R184 but everytime I flash it, it goes through but ends up reverting back to the CM kernel. I tried flashing stock Franco and it still does the same.
I'm still looking for help on this matter
Gotta download the alternate kernel he provides.

I thought JWR doesn't work with CyanogenMod.
