[Q] Best Kernel for Project KitKat (KRT16S)? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was curious if there was a really good kernel for my ROM that I could flash over. That's all!

Franco Kernel and it's companion app is great. So is Faux Kernel and it's companion app.

It's still too early to say, all the kernels are still just taking baby steps with 4.4.

All the above suggested kernels plus AK.207.KK and hells-Core-b42-t4. Each of all the above is a GREAT kernel.
Flash any of them, configure it to your own preferences. Try it for a few days or longer. From the assessment (performance/battery life/smoothness/etc) you'll determine which kernel works BEST for you.

I have. And I still think it's going to take a few iterations until the kernel makers really start optimizing their product.

[Q] Want to downgrade to 4.1?

Currently running 4.2.1 and very pleased with it. But occasionally need to run an app. that no longer works on 4.2. But it does work on 4.1.
Was thinking I'd like to be able to flash a 4.1 ROM when I want. Is that possible; if so which ROM please, a CM ROM would be great?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Can't, 4.1 was never released on the nexus4.
You're better off contacting that developer and time to upgrade

There will never be a downgrade to a firmware that was never on the device in the first place. The N4 was released with 4.2, and no developer will create a 4.1 ROM for it

Shame, but I had expected that would be the answer
It's the MM Tracker application that is stuck only working on 4.1. Sadly the developer has had some hassle and isn't permitted to update anymore. Something in 4.2 broke it.
Wishing I'd kept my Galaxy Nexus as a backup phone now!

I suppose an Optimus G Rom can't be modded to work on our N4? Bluetooth issues are driving me nuts,

Already try panandroid too... Need more customization! I'm all about the looks and make it personal! Lol!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
You asked most stable, not most customizable. Disregard minco & rasbean then. None or minimal customization there, just stable & fast.
I would recommend CFX then.

Jason, I was thinking, how about the ATT Captivate 4.3 GPS files.I know Slim has a mature build already and the cappy is USA based configurations. Just my 2¢. I can ask PRB for it since he owns one....Lemme know on Hangouts!
The cappy files are exactly the same as the I9000. There should be a way to get it working with the right combo of available files.

did you read it all? CM IS STILL FREE (now and forever)
they are going to offer the same rom, they want to make a pc installer too!
As long as it stays android I would say it's great, but it almost reads as it may be a new os. Really found it interesting more than anything

no, this is not what he asked for, franco kernel does not have swype2wake, just double tap to wake which is useless as it goes off in your pocket if your hand is in there as well.
I'm assuming op knows to use trickster mod to turn on the waking feature?.
I found the faux123 29 mainline kernel and it's good but thanks for your guys help
