Can any tell me whether there are any noticeable differences in terms of speed and functionality between these there variations of 2.2.1? Im happy with my current jpy rom and would only be interested in switching if id see noticeable performance increases. Would it be incorrect to say that assuming I use the same jpx kernel for each rom version the performance differences would be negligible?

For speeds its about the kernel. So if you had the same kernel on all those roms, the speeds should be about the same. There are always variables though so usually they are not exactly the same. Stick with JPY its the best IMO lol.

This had probably been covered many times previously but due to the kernels being updated so often, I feel the need to discuss it.
The fact that I've tried loads of rims and now mixing it up trying kernels is just a coincidence :-D
So what do people think at the moment?
Im currently on ultimate 5.5 with the latest voodoo sound fix kernel.

Its a matter of preference that's why you won''t get many people to answer you.
If you want Top performance but feel adventurous and can live with slight niggles, then you can use Advanced Voodoo 666 1.2 where you can OC it to 1280hz. Its like being on the edge without falling over
Otherwise, if you want stable and performance balance, then head to Speedmod's Kernel
If you want extreme performance with sacrifice over battery life or stability, head to Super Optimized OC/UV Kernel

All the best!
Since it's not so much a hassle to flash new Kernels now

Can someone enumerate the differences between these two kernels? As far as I can understand, they're essentially the same other than calling the lagfix by a different name.
Also, please put forth which one you would recommend that I use. Thanks!

Nobody can tell you which will provide the best result on your phone. Most make the determination based on the effect they have on battery which can be very different, even with all else seemingly being equal. Flashing kernels is really a painless process only requiring a few minutes of your time so I suggest that you experiment and find what works best for you.
Edited for swype.
IMO firebird 2 is a tad faster and uses more battery. So depending on what you want I guess.

You have to try them yourself to see what works best for your phone. They are both great kernels but I prefer Firebird 2 personally.

I tried both and prefer speedmod. Firebird was a bit faster for me but also drained my battery faster. I currently use speedmod with Cezar's rom and its a match made in heaven. Fast and awesome battery.

Speedmod also tends to stay a little more updated than firebird.

"little more" does not convey full justice. its more like "timely updates whenever an issue and/or improvements are found".
Ok, I'll give SpeedMod a shot. I should be able to switch back and forth easily if I have both CWM zips on my phone, I take it?

I concur. Battery life is outstanding with overclocking disabled and undervolting enabled.
I'm sure this has been answered many times, but I can't find it.
What is the difference between 2.2 and 2.2.1?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Just some basic improvements
The only difference I know of is the battery icon issue on 2.2.1. The battery will show 100% while charging, but will drop immediately to 98% when unplugged. So 98% is 100% for 2.2.1.
Is there any compelling reason to use 2.2.1 over 2.2?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
No. I have been on both and I am not sure there is a big difference although most roms are using jpy which Is 2.2.1
I think there are some base Android fixes in 2.2.1 as well since 2.2.1 is an official Android release.
i am using cog 4.1.1 and i am having problems with my data my sisters phone has a strong 3g signal and mu cap is only using egde.
i am new to flashing and all i want to flash a new modem
cog uses Baseband I897UCKB1, Kernel 2.6.32.9
waht is the fastest modem or raido whatever i can flash to using cw
i want to use hsupa or 3g what ever the fastest is battery life is not a problem
I9000 modems have faster data but if not paired with i9000 kernel bluetooth will likely not work correctly
CM7
You're looking for modems, and that is ENTIRELY dependent on where you are in the world.
Cog 4.1.1 would be using the official 2.2 ROM as a base, so I'm not sure if these modems would help out... As far as I know KB1 is the only working modem with that version of the ROM (I'm not 100% on this).
I would try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835272 for the moment, but like I say I'm unsure how updated that topic would be (the latest few posts will definitely have something about KB1 there)... I'll can go through some quick research for you to make sure, but I'm at work right now so I can't at the moment :/
A quick scan through the latest posts seems to say that JK4 and JPG and KP1 modems seem to work best for some users. (Again, not a 100% sure thing).
Hope this helps at least a teeny bit.
I used secret code in sgs tools and enabled 3g and hsupa and It is working fast now something around 1857kbs down and 367kbs up. At 4 bars

Speeds as fast as Wi-Fi ? What kind of internet connection is that ? For me , my internet is 15:1 mbps (download:upload) . The speed on my phone is no where near the speeds on wi-fi .
EDIT: I'm getting 3:1 Mbps on my phone through data . I'm on CM7 , Escapist's Kernel with JL3 CM7 modem .
In order to get the "fastest modem" , you have to test out all the modems given to you for your kernel . Some modems are better in other areas , so you just have to test . For the Captivate kernel , the latest modem (if I'm not correct) is KB1 . Try it out and see if it makes things any better . I liked the i9000 kernel / modem combo better because of HSUPA enabled and the features it gives . I got speeds as high as 4:3 Mbps .

You may have an issue either with the flash or something else is conflicting because I am running the same thing and have zero issues always have a strong signal, actually have a signal in places i didn't when I had the stock software- don't think it is the modem they use jk4 as a default modem most roms use the same
I would suggest you go over to the serendipity Q&A section and post this info. so the developers can help you work out your issues- response is pretty good
If there was a definite answer to which modem was fastest don't you think that it would be the standard for all roms? Just like which rom is the best is highly individual

Just wanted to know what is the best kernel for longer battery life from your experiences? I'm using custom JVO rom (Criskelo Gingerbread v64)
Stock kernel best for battery. Or..close second undervolting with Damian kernel. Modems can make a BIG difference to battery life also. I get nearly double battery life since switching to jvp modem. Also some Apps can cause big drain. Its all about finding what's right for you.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Use a kernel with conservative governor..(ex:damiangto)..hope this helps!!!

Does JVP rom/modem has more battery life than JVO and JVH? I've read everyone says that JVP really fast and quadrant scores are really high... but not many ppl talked abt the battery life...
