As you guys' recommendation, I've tried a lot of custom ROMs for Pxiel2 XL. For instance, Dirty Unicorn, Bootlegger家, Pixel Dust, Havoc and Crdroid.
Honestly, there is little difference between them. But I do believe I can pick the best one as my favourite one.
the most stable ROM: official ROM
the most smoothy ROM: Crdroid ROM
the best battery life ROM: Bootleggers ROM
what's your opinion towards the best ROM? please make comments below~
btw, I do you have the issue with RAM management? the free RAM for me is only below 1G after opening 4-5 apps, 'Android operate system' used the majority of the RAM.
My set up is Hacoc plus Kirisakura Kernel with kernel swap space increased from 512mb to 1024mb to negate most of the Ram problems . I've had this set up for about a month and don't see myself changing until Q is stable.

Can you talk more about "kernel swap space increased from 512mb to 1024mb to negate most of the Ram problems"? That sounds interesting. Is that set through a kernel manager?
Is this the ZRAM size? That's the only thing I see under the Memory Options in EXKM with 512mb.

Yes its under ZRAM. I was googling around for a Ram fix and came across a pixel 3 thread that stated that google patched the pixel 3's ram issue by increasing the swap size top 1024mb and decided to give it a shot. Low and behold my games now stay in memory , youtube, instagram, etc. I have 3 phones with the same chipset and neither device has worse Ram management than the pixel.

Cool, thanks for the info. Can you send screenshots or steps of how you did this? When I try to do it in EX Kernel Manager, it says it may take a while and ZRAM just sits at "stopping", but never gets past that. I'm on Elixr kernel w/ the LKT Magisk Mod installed, so that may have something to do with it.
I found scorpion rom while browsing AFH and it's pretty sweet. I keep going back to bootleggers though

I came across this Magisk Mod that does similar, but adjusts it automatically: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79099714&postcount=680. It's by the developer of LTK. On my Taimen it boosted my ZRAM to 1792MB.

actually, I didn't find any issue after flashing the custom kernel and this module, smoothy enough.
I also personally use havoc rom. it had the best feel in my opinion. i read up on the ram management hijack in this thread too. it makes sense so i thought id try it myself. definitely recommend havoc though.

you can carefully read the instruction again, the intro didn't say any about the conflict with custom kernel, one thing you might notice is that substratum is not allowed to use with NFS

I use FK to manage kernel settings. Do keep in mind that it does take time for the settings to get applied because zram turns off, dumps all zram (swap) to 0mb then restarts to apply the new setting, which is why it may seems like zram is hanging with a "stopping " message.

I`am using the stock 4.2.2 rom and Franco kernel r147 and batterylife and performance is great. Franco also offers good color and sound control. Screenontime is about 5 hours but it also depends on the user setup and usage off course. Btw benchmarks don`t mean anything, real life user xperience is what counts

1. No you don`t have to wipe the device, just flash the kernel and install Franco Kernel Updater from Play and set it up.
2. Rom`s you have to try for yourself, there are plenty AOSP an AOKP roms out there.

I recommend the 4.2.2 Nightlies, these are the latest releases with the latest tweaks and options. You can download and install kernels from within the franco Kernel App from Play. Your device beeing slow can also be caused by ongoing background processes like apps, widgets and syncs that strain the cpu.

Look in custom kernel settings somewhere at the botom, there should be something about sound setttings i`am sure. Not on Franco atm so don`t know the exact location. Or look on the Franco kernel thread and use `search this forum`in the top right section for sound control.

Comparison Of Greatest Kernels For Our Samsung Galaxy SIII(GT-i9300)
For Touchwiz Based Roms Only
Now No More Confusion
Few Things To Know Before Going Through This Post :-
1. This is based on my personal experience with my SIII.
2. ROM-> Glamour V8 prev+S5 Mini V4 Alpha+S5 Sensation V6(A Complete mix).
3. Review on complete stock(Pre loaded) settings.
4. I AM NOT AT ALL TRYING TO INSULT ANY KERNEL DEVELOPER.
Here We Go!
1. Boeffla Kernel beta 6 --- The King
The Best Kernel.
Pros:-
1. Great Stability
2. Good Battery Life.
3. Great Ram management.
4. A helpful screen which displays all information about your SIII.
5. Governers are tunable.
6. Pre-loaded Boeffla Sound Settings. No need to install the boeffla sound control app.
Coins:-
1. No Dualboot.
2. Difficulty in adjusting the touch-to-wake duration timing slider.
3. No pre-loaded LMK(Low memory killer) settings which may create confusions while changing it.
4. Governers are only tunable only if you buy the donation app.
2. ArchiKernel V1.5.2 --- The Beast
The Most Advanced And Heavily Tweaked Kernel.
Pros:-
1. Average stability.
2. Very Good Battery Life.
3. Fast.
4. Options to choose from different sound mods( boeffla and woflson).
Coins:-
1. Not so good Ram management.
2. Buggy Stweak App.
3. "Any Kernel" Method- creates problems if you flash this beast kernel upon any other kernel. To flash this beast you need to flash the ROM again but I have made a stock kernel so that you dont need to flash the whole rom again . You can get it here :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/kernel-t2918638
4. No pre-loaded LMK(Low memory killer) settings which may create confusions while changing it.
5. No DualBoot.
3. AGNi Kernel V5.1 --- The Beleaguer
The Fire("Agni" an Indian word) Kernel. (Now I am using this)
Pros:-
1. Best and Great stability as comparison to other kernels.
2. Great Ram management.
3. Very Good Battery Life.
4. Fast and Smooth.
5. Options to choose from different LMK(Low Memory Killer) settings --- (Recommended to set Aggressive option).
6. Boeffla Sound.
Coins:-
1. No Dualboot.
2. Not that good AGNi Control App(Personally I dont like it).
4. Arter kernel v3.1.1 --- The Hybrid
The Amazing Kernel.
Pros:-
1. Good Stability.
2. Good Battery Life.
3. Good Ram management.
4. Full of customization options.
5. Few Governers are tunable.
6. Touchwake manual mode(what i love in this kernel).
7. Dual Boot
Coins:-
1. Difficulty in adjusting the touch-to-wake duration timing slider.
2. No option to tune LMK.
Upcoming :-
Sorry. Busy with my life. Nothing for now.
Warning:- I and other kernel developers are not at all responsible if anything wrong happens with you and your SIII.
Press Thanks button if my work is really helpful for you.

Where is devil kernel?
The biggest disadvantage of boeffla is lack of f2fs support. It is main reason why I'm not using it, and I never will be.
The best kernel for me is arter97's kenrel (kernel, great config app and best way to multiboot), but zram is not working (terrible multitasking), so I'm using Agni pure stock (which is almost that good like arter, but sound quality is a little worse and his app doesn't allow to change mdnie functions).
PS, coins, really ?

IMEI Lost
thanks for this effort, i actually moved to 4.4.4 (back to n00t) but lost the imei after and cannot restore it, i'll try to flash another stock ROM and see.
While your effort in writing and testing is greatly appreciated. But reading this review is like reading a very commercialized propaganda magazine that makes the ranking no sense at all.
How can you rate Boeffla number 1 and the king if it has the most con? Not to mention "4. Governers are only tunable only if you buy the donation app." is putting it mildly. You can't even choose the amount of working core, which you can in other Kernels . I can understand to tune a governor "variable" require donation. But amount of working core is a bit too much. And the description/documentation on some of the preset Governor is confusing.
I haven't tried the ArchiKernel, so I can't comment on the "1. Average stability.". But I don't think Boeffla would deserve "1. Great Stability". I used 3 kernel so far (GoogyMax, Boeffla and Agni), and preparing to test Arter Kernel, but Boeffla kernel is the only kernel that hangs on me - on a good basis when the multi-task become too intensive for the poor 1GB S3's RAM. Sure AgniKernel has some bugs - but coding bugs, no stability issue. And it weird you have "6. Boeffla Sound." under AgniKernel but not under Boeffla itself. And I'm pretty sure Arter Kernel has it too.
I can't say for Arter yet, but having great hope for it, but one of the best thing about AgniKernel is how the developer takes it preset setting for a everyday user's perspective. Not a programmer. Sure, it kernel app is geeky, but it most likely the only kernel that works great just by installing it - off the shelf, no changes needed. The preset ZRAM, memory optimization alone makes S3's crappy 1GB RAM much more usable. This along deserve a better ranking than all other kernel. Just my two cents

If you ODIN back your stock ROM for your specific model and still no IMEI - you're screwed if you have no back-up. Its more risky to try ported stock ROM than custom AOSP/CM based ROMs. I wish all modder would all mention this, since not everybody has the time to keep track what happens on Android all the time.

Coming from used a few devices, stock/ported/custom ROMs, there isn't much different between the Kernels for stock or AOSP/CM based ROMs, as long it coming from the same developer. There maybe occasional coding bug issue, but lots it related to the ROM itself. Though I might get flammed for it, but remember - stock ROM comes from same root as AOSP too. Manufacture just change and add their own stuff. And in Samsung's case - pretty bad as we all know. Custom ROMs has their problem too, one can only hope it get fixed by it more regularly updated future version.

true... i now using temasek cm10.2, funny isn't it? its may because of better ram management for me.. need further test.. else... cm11 is my last choice... because cm11 is slightly more advance in opening apps n lower lag respon(delay on opening)

Nope, perfectly understandable. The more I try, the more I feel KitKat is just a gap stopping measure for Google. It was quickly abandoned after LP.
4.1 was pretty balanced overall
4.3 probably the most feature packed since 4.x ICS, downside - the more resource hungry one goes to JB.
4.4 this is when Google realize it getting out of hand with the lack of optimization. Its is the quickest response of 4.0 branch and RAM usage is like 4.1 but for me, the battery drain seems worse than 4.3 in actual usage (screen-on activity), than again it could be the Kernel. But for two difference devices and ROM/kernel combo... I don't think so.
I'm on KK now purely because of security. Despite I had Xprivacy, my phone was giving problems (think some malware) and I had to do a clean install after about a year. And I don't install any app or play games after I set everything up. Phone ins't a gadget or gaming device for me, it for work, e-mail and internet - that it. If it wasn't for that I'm more than happy to stay on 4.3.
I successfully completed the conversion to dev mode and root my device. I have the multi-system kernel at this time but was wondering which kernel gives the best battery life and which are most people using?
The only 2 kernels I am aware of that are available are the emotion and multi-system ones. Is there something else?
My N4 performs well with this multi-system kernel Courtesy of @hsbadr
I've been using the Eceed Kernel by @kairi_zeroblade:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/kernel-xceed-t3344742
there is a verizon version. I had no problems flashing this onto my jasmine rom 4.3 running android 5.1.1.
One user reported loosing data(4g) with this kernel but didnt give any info on what rom or firmware he was running.
the kernel works great so far, much better battery life. Scores 82,000+ consistently on antutu.
The kernel comes pre configured. The only things you can change if you wish is the cpu voltages, cpu currents, and a couple of read ahead tweaks in Synapse
the only thing I noticed was some camera lag (a bit slower to open and to switch from front to rear) that @kairi_zeroblade said could be due to the strict cpu settings. I believe hes working on a 6.0 MM kernel right now that should work for verizon.
Definitely worth a shot to check it out!!!! If you have any feedback just post in the original thread.

Got same results in antutu which is pretty awesome as fast as s6 but have no data on kyubi'so rom
This one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...nt/firmware-safe-upgrade-to-lollipop-t3313224
I use the screen mirroring option all the time. I would say test that out to determine which kernel is best for you. I know one of the kernels floating around doesn't support screen mirroring which is a big no no for me.

Not really big on Viper and over clocking so maybe someone else could shed some light on those features.

The Xceed kernel is over clocked to 2.8ghz and has various other tweaks

I haven't tweaked anything yet and this kernal is pretty nice. Battery life seems to last longer. Gotta test for a few more days.

Xceed comes pre tweaked. The only thing that may give a little more speed is changing the internal and SD card read ahead from 512 to 2048mb and cfq as the scheduler. Most other adjustments are untouchable
any 6.0 roms working on the verizon note 4?

So looks like the kubyi rom will not work with this kernel. :/ I'm guessing the data fix will have to be patched into the Xceed kernel.
I haven't had the time to read through this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-tmobile/general/running-international-roms-n910t-t3220738
Is it only for the n910t varient?
Does anyone have any info on the data fix for the verizon kernel so maybe @kairi_zeroblade can add it to the next build.?

What info do you want to know about the datafix for Kyubi? It has multisystem kernel included. So far that is the only kernel that is compatible with Kyubi. No changes to the kernel were made to make it work with Kyubi. It just happened to work when I tried flashing Kyubi on our phone. So it became part of the datafix since it worked so well. I think if anything, @kairi_zeroblade should talk with @hsbadr the developer of multisystem kernel. We got lucky that hsbadr's kernel worked !

I meant stock mm roms. I noticed the snapdragon note 4 forums have them, but I'm not sure if they will work on the Verizon note 4.

I was thinking there was some type of patch or fix @hsbadr may have implemented into the multisystem kernel to get it to work. looks like @kairi_zeroblade is focusing on marshmallow though which should be awesome! Can't wait for us to get the update
I just re downloaded emotion kernel and am going to try it for a little bit.. Strange thing is, my battery percent jumped from 20 to 42 after reboot.. I will have to see how it goes..

I second the Eceed kernel. Im on the jasmine rom and was using the emotion kernel but I noticed a fast drain on the battery. Switched over to Eceed a few days ago and have experienced a huge improvement on battery life, without the sacrifice in speed. Thanks Joemill for the suggestion.
Read about Exceed kernel so I gave it a try and thats the one Im sticking with. Runs great,using Jasmine Rom with it as well,battery life is great and my phone is very quick,highly recommend it.
Because that, there are so many custom rom that you choose. Which would you choose?
I'm on revivorOS because stock gives me more battery fuel. Overclocked cpu with elementalx kernel and viperarise audio mod.
PureNexus with elementalX kernel works best for me...

You can find DU at devs-base.
As for ElementalX I disable all memory killers, disable the 4 big cores, and use the interactive governor tweaks as described here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2769899

I use LineageOS with this Pixel mod which works great! https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/themes/lineageos14-1-pixel-theme-moto-g4-plus-t3544590 The performance is smooth. Decent battery life. (Better than stock) and every other week I get an update!
I was also testing lineage OS but I saw that for a month that does not update and now I'm testing jx creampie odexed, by facor write what you use to give me ideas
Xenonhd ex kernel no overclock lightning blade ex profile
Table of Geekbench results
I was surprised about EUI too.
Suggest what ROMs to test next and other stuff.
If you want to suggest your test make sure:
Your installation have NO tweaks/other stuff installed(except if it is kernel which is required for MIUI to function normally)
Your installation have only Geekbench 4 app and nothing else
Run test 2 times, and post a screenshot of 2nd test there.
I did a little mistake: typed Overdose kernel instead of Overload
Fixed it now
Nice work :good:

Lol it seems you made the Los 14 test with sleeping big cores. Could you also give the dark rom score with sleeping big cores, as you said no tweeks are allowed...
or is this the first nougat rom where this problem is solved?

When I say "no tweaks are allowed" I mean that user shouldn't apply anything after flash, except something that is necessary to make ROM work, like kernel in MIUI, gapps in DarkROM. I did not installed anything except OpenGAPPS into DarkROM.

Just want to tell you you are comparing wrong somehow, if you give a Los14 score with 2500 for cpu as mine was 3900.
But ok, enjoy yourself

Sorry, I now noticed the score was already for carbon rom, but Los14 wasn't far away as I remember.
Lol I don't care about the speed of any Nougat Rom as long as big cores go asleep without root controls.
So I don't want to participate in your table which is filled with some kind of lottery numbers
Thx for your work anyway, would have been a nice idea if it has been done correctly.
Which is meaning every phone should be left on with display off for half an hour and then you can run geekbench.
As it seems you don't know what I am talking about I am already tired of posting my thread link:
