i'm running CM7 #51 and i was just wondering what the best kernel for battery life would be.
You could probably try invisblek #21 or #28, your sd card might stop mounting after you flash a different kernel.

The only other kernel made for gingerbread that I know of besides the stock kernel, which is already awesome thanks to slayher, is Tiamat.

Hello all,
I'm currently running perception 10 and I'm wondering if the included kernel (Firebird) offer better battery performance compare to speedmod (hardcore)
I tought that speedmod was offering better battery performance... but i seem to get better with firebird!
What's your opinion?

Speedmod would offer better battery becoz of all the battery tweaks in CWM recovery. And many ppl have found it to be better. But whatever Kernel you use, make sure to Recalibrate and wipe battery stats for the best battery life
Thanks man,
I wasn't sure if recalibrating was required after a Kernel Flash... But I was doubting about it, as my battery meter was acting weird today. (went from 75% to 47% in 1 hour... without using the phone lol!)
I've found that Speedmod gives me the best battery life out of any kernel I've flashed (after enabling the tweaks in CWM).
+1 for speedmod
+1 for speedmod
hello -
i'm considering flashing my captivate and i'm trying to learn as much as possible before doing so.
The one thing I'm confused about, do I update the kernel before I flash the ROM or afterwards? I would like to get the speedmod kernel, but just not sure which ROM to use just yet. Could someone enlighten me? Thanks.

When u flash a ROM it comes with a kernel too. So first load the ROM of ur choice, and then flash the kernel of ur choice.
1. ROM first
2. boot up the phone
3. Kernel next
4. boot up the phone
5. now do all ur stuff
Do NOT flash a new kernel without booting up ur phone atleast once after flashing any ROM.
what is the best kernel for the newest radio for battery life? i'm running cm7 magpie with firerats allin one lwp patch and battery is terrible when using camera or even having the screen on. i'm looking for an undervolted kernel. i dont want to change the rom because it's the fastest gb with cm features. could you guys please post links to the best kernels that are uv.
As the title suggests I would like to know what kernel people are using with what Rom and why.
Do you use the same Kernel with every Rom you flash?

Well im on stock 2.2.1 froyo with CF-ROOT kernel. got this phone as present lats week. haven`t flash it yet xD but ,as anyone here, i just love flashing
I am using cm9 nightlies - based on 4.0.4 because of its stability, good battery life and performance, settings + twics - tw launcher, weather widget and some other things from sgs3, atm with devil3 .79 kernel, with stock ram (378mb, if needed, i can increase it up to 403mb), stable oc up to 1400mhz (with semaphore 1140max., 1200 -> bootloop), also gpu is oc-able ... but if u dont want to oc, semaphore kernel is better for u
I'm reinstalling right now the miui speed ics by lucainno, with devil3 kernel. I really love this rom expecially for the layout, which is different from any other rom! The speed is great and battery life as well. And the kernel is simply... awesome! For its customization
Hi, I'm using ics 4.0.4 cna by franzy with the midnight kernel. I had the devil before but i got a bootloop. With the last midnight the phone is smooth, no lags, good battery life, no bugs until now !
Saurom jw5 + semaphore + ext4 works for me.. very smooth ops. Sticking to 2.3.6 for the fm radio

I'm running the CM9 nightlies as well, with a Semaphore kernel. Very stable and good batteri life, although I'm thinking about comparing with a devil3 kernel. Right now, with the battery life I'm having the most important thing for me is the stability, though.

Basically I have the SGSII JB ROM v10.1 installed and it has an oc-kernel.
I just want a good non-oc-kernel that will give me a good battery life and good performance.
Can somebody recommend me a non-oc-kernel?
Ive look at battery extender 1.6, would this be ok?
Thanks
Almost All the kernels from the stock roms has OC..as per as i know..
Try to Extract Kernel From Original Firmware..
There's Battery Extender 1.5.1 for STOCK roms
batteryExtender1.5.1.zip: 04/08/2012
Fsync was activated for some reason so woops. I deactivated... also some other small changes. Battery driver is the same.
This time NONOC and OC.

download link is for non-oc battery extender 1.5.1
There's Firekernel for CM7
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1664131/firekernel-09.10.12.zip
That's the latest firekernel as far as I know.
Why are most kernels OC when this is said to damage the phone?

I read somewhere 921mhz OC is stable for ace...
from what i hear, speedmod is the best kernel when it comes to battery life.
i was thinking of using lanight rom for captivate but it has devil kernel. can i flash speedmod kernel to it? which is better considering that i give most priority to battery life.
also, what are the advantages of different kernels?

LANIGHT is not a Froyo ROM (2.2), therefor it won't work with speedmod.
When choosing your kernel, make sure you they support the same firmware.
To know more about each kernels, read their OP and changelogs.
