which the best kernel for ICS 4.0.4???
The one that works best with your ROM... ;-)
But give a look at the smemaphore kernel.

Huge fan of semaphore, great on GB, now on ics.

semaphore is the best
Glitch is for me the best

One vote for midnight, the smoothest and most battery efficient for me
A slim sgs running on midnight
The best kernel? I use MNICS and I am very well. Now I have version 190LR (large ram), latest version.

I have tried every kernel out there.. but MNICS 202 LR is the best!! .. I am on slim ics 3.5 and this kernel is making my phone fly literally .. plus the GPS results are accurate as hell!!
cheers.
you have to try, cause every phone is different.
for example: tried glitch and its draining the battery. semaphore or midnight works perfectly. in my opinion its semaphore.
using tiramisu 1.8 which is one of the best ics roms at the moment i think.
I am also on tiramisu (1.9) and semaphore works great. Tried also the Devil and the Midnight Kernel. But went back to semaphore again, because with my normal til light usage and in my opinion, he feels faster and battery is great.
devil (has voodoo colour),can't imagine sgs without vc
devil 0.72 for me.
Never used Semaphore. What is the easiest way to install it? I have cm9 nightlies rom installed with stock kernel and gapps.

ok here is my review
WeUI 1.0 ROM
i have 86user apps, 78system apps,
running which whole day 3G Data connecting,
using xperia launcher, Live wallpaper, browsing internet using default browser and Opera,
Set background process limited to 4
no Low Memory Killer,
Tried OC to 1.14Ghz as well(live OC tune 15% on 1Ghz)
No weather apps running
Google's location service ON
Scheduler: Simple I/O
Governor: ondemand
Deep idle: on, but most in my case, top.on-yes top.off-no
Semaphore Kernel 1.1.1s
Touch awake: 4
Feedback respon: 4
Lagless Feel: 3.5
Gaming Feel: 3.5
Battery Duration: 4
review: it work most best to me, but the only bad thing is Wifi Tetthering(need on of the network filter on off to make it work), i cant remember which previous version feed me best...
Devil Kernel2 0.79(3.1.10)
Touch awake: 3.5
Feedback respon: 3
Lagless Feel: 3
Gaming Feel: 2.5 (will be beter a bit if Scheduler changed vr)
Battery Duration: 2.5
review: most the default setting(changing around Governorndemand/smartassv2(i wont use batterysave as it slow down my phone) scheduler:SIO/VR/deadline) is not saving power either or try self setting in live OC yourself
MNICS Kernel 202
Touch awake: 3.5
Feedback respon: 3
Lagless Feel: 2(horible)
Gaming Feel: - (not going to try)
Battery Duration: 3
review: well... i wont use it, its not suit me at all(maybe it not suit to my current rom)
Overall: well it most depant on what your ROM and what you need. some people say kernelA LAG not good, but some people say kernelA running well in this and that. But no detail info about it, example for comparing Kernel with:
-3G on/off? (i usually on)
-Wifi on/off? (not open most of the time)
-the number of apps installed and running behind? (mine is 86+78)
-draining battery apps running(etc:facebook,email with no pop3,weather app)? (not for me, just use it when needed)
-Google's location services ON/off? (mine on)
-Is that Touch sounds and Screen Lock Sound turn off?(this one important so mine off)
-apps on SD or where? (still no on comparing this, although all is under internel memory, but you must know the ROM setting are still different this should be most important... but still not so important for normal user Lolz)

conclusion?
well... you have to try out yourself(im agree with flashinjoe), u wont know until you try and make it feet best yours setting and ROM~ all these kernel above is working on all apps with no FC for me.
Still, +1 to semaphore...(just tested devil, now wanna change back to semaphore)
Cheer~
I'm currently using Glitch on AOKP and have found it to be pretty fantastic. OC to 1.2 and haven't really had any issues at all. GPS works reasonably well. Battery is very impressive.
Previous to that I was using Semaphore, which was also fantastic. It has alot of tweaking options. The GPS wasn't as great (though I have been flashing different modems since I switched, so that might be why).
So honestly, I think they are both great kernels. Both appear to be updated frequently as well.

Go check out the Semaphore ICS thread. It's the same as any kernel really. Download, go to CWM and flash that bad boy.
Changed to Tiramisu 0.9.5 and found that i had almost 80% near to the feel that gingerbread had, the speed... the feel... but not the battery... now i think i will stick tiramisu awhile lol.... btw I'm using semaphore and feel the battery consumptions is a bit higher then the previous ROM... will check back later~

These are 2 of the best Cm7 Builds for our Galaxy Mini
I would like to ask your opinions which among these 2:
1. Subpsyke Cm7 RC0 with hotfixes
or
2. Squadzone Cm7 RC5
Is most commonly used by XDA People
In terms of :
* Stableness
- Less Lag
- Less Bug
- Less Battery Consumption
- Etc.
Please post your comment below...
Thanks.

Note: actually no need to compare which one is better than another because of this problem sense ...
Beda lidah beda rasa man....
Big thanks 4 all dev's..
Sent from telephone coin..
Better try both of them yourself.. so you'll experience and get the feel of both roms. Subpsyke's cm7 as he said is pure cm, closest to tjstyle's. Squad's cm7 is modified cm mixed with tablet features. You can also see the difference in the Performance settings. Squad added a lot of tweaks. So, it's up to you..
Sent from my S5570 CM7 RC0 v1.1
Yeah that's true now i use cm7 by Subpsyke but now i want to try cm7 rc 5.1 by Squad
if you have problem with the drain battrey, just set the brightnest to 10%, it's more effective
Which ROM has a better battery life and is more stable? Subspyke' s or Squadzone' s RC 5.2?
Now using Squad' s RC4 but my battery drains very quickly, searching for a ROM that has a better battery live. But I really like CyanogenMod' s very differsent look from stock GB. So I would prefer CyanogenMod over a stock-based ROM
And yes, I know how to save my battery, I always have bluetooth and GPS off. I always set the phone on flight modus when I don't need the phone function. I always turn of WiFi when I don't use it. Always have the CPU underclocked at 480mHz max. And when I don't use the phone (when in standby) I use the "powersave" governor. And still my battery drains very fast! And I also always have brightness of the screen at absolute minimum!

Battery life in my sgm could last about 2 days using squadzone's rc5.2. But i set my network to gsm only, check use 2G networks only, and use this app called Easy Battery Saver. It can be found in the market and its 'super power saving mode' is incredible. Why don't you try it? =)
IMO subspyke's version is far better than squad's - it's more stable, it doesn't cause random issues with WiFi/3G I had on RC5 and it runs far smoothier than RC5.
I got 2292pts in AnTuTu with subspyke's ROM with 787MHz OC

Same for me, can't get past 787
Benchmark scores are similar in both versions, but I got weird problems with switching on and off WiFi and/or 3G. Also setting brightness was a bit buggy for me, so I decided to try subspyke's ROM.
I found it as efficient as squadzone's but without all the weird problems, so I decided to stay with it for the moment

Semaphore 0.9.0 is very very stable. I'm using it on RC 4.2 on SGS-I9000 and it looks like the most fluid at all.Best balance between Battery/performance.

rightly said..RC4.2 in itself was quite laggy..atleast in my observation..i flashed semaphore 0.9.0 recently and suddenly its as smooth as anything..i use smartassv2..
battery life looks good..no FC reboots etc so far! wayyy better than stock kernel.
I'm also using ICSSGS RC4.2 with Semaphore 0.9 (smartassV2 governor), and the battery life is quite good.
Bu I observed that data connection and screen consume a lot of battery. With data disabled, and a normal use, my battery lasts about 2 days. But if I enable data, the battery lasts just a day. And if I use it (check facebook, twitter, reader, that-is-to-say, if my screen is on), the battery is empty in the afternoon.
Do you have your data enabled all the time ? I think this is the component that uses the more the battery..

I have already tried that kernel .
And no data is not enabled all day but for some part of the day.
I know that thing eats battery. But in my battery usage it shows "Android OS" keeps my phone awake. And that is the reason the main reason the battery dies quickly!!

hello, what is the best rom for me?
i use a lot the mobile every day... sometimes it's ten of the morning and i have only 70% or 60% of the battery...(when i unpluged for charge at 8 or 9 of the morning!!!!)
my battery need's to be calibrate, how can i do that?(when is full charged the battery start's at 97%..., and sometimes when i change the sim card, one is with 40% of battery, and the next moment, the other with for example 25%)
i use a lot of 3G and wifi(since 15 february i have used 3.75gb at wifi, and 8.01gb at 3g)
sometimes i use the videocalls, and play some games
i need a rom stable with wifi..
i use some app's with connection to the internet(messenger for example)
i send and receive calls, sms's and mms
i need a rom with long life battery...
thanks
I am new to custom ROM and Planning to install Teamhacksung's ICS Build 16.
Currently on Ginger Bread Value Pack.
Please suggest.
I am using the JW1 ROM.
My battery has been calibrated and comes off the charger anywhere from 97% to 100% (varies day to day).
I can get close to two days of use with the battery with moderate use (internet, facebook, Seesmic, Google+).
On heavy use days I end the day at about 40% battery left.
Which one is better, Teamhacksung or WeUI?
I've used official rom, Darky Rom, MIUI Mintberry and use Dark Knight 3 (ICS 4.0.4) now. You can try MIUI Mintberry. It is very powerful about battery. But I'm not sure about wireless that spends energy so much everytime.
The best is always the one that meets your needs, I'm using WeUI and is fantastic.
Sorry my bad English.
not bad dark knight v3
Go for team icssgs RC 4.2 and flash the semaphore 0.9.1 kernel it's amazing

and also Dark Knight 3 (now 4) see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1510940 they are both good and stable for daily use.
My current favourite is Blue Lightning but this could change over the next few days!
It is down to personal preference but check out the comments on the relevant threads for best battery life etc. etc.
The fun is trying out the different roms and kernels......

Depends on your tastes. For pure unadulterated ics go with elites v9.1 for more tweaking options go with roms based on aokp or codrnameandroid. For slim versions you can't go wrong with krarvinds slim ics

For rock solid stability, compatibility with the fewest quirks as possible, i'd recommend MIUI Mintberry.
It's GB based and has been running SOLID for months on my phone. Battery lasts for the whole day with intense use. Lasts 2 or even 3 with minimum use.
Everything i ever tried, worked. No lags, no quirks no workarounds needed, it just works (gps doesn't but mine never did, isn't rom related)
No crap "it's for your own good" excuse for the battery drain when charged to 100 and still plugged as seen in samsung roms (that's what sets this one aside for me).
Beautiful sms interface with one of the best notifications/popups methods i've seen. Ever.
Launcher needs to be changed though, i really like Go Launcher Ex. MIUI's lacks organization.
Phone is as fast as it gets. And this is FAST! I've tried almost everything around (ICS even) and this one comes nothing short of the fastest roms around.
well i think the best rom for batterylife is froyo 2.2.1
or try darky 9.5 or ultimate
they are the best roms for battery and they r all froyo
I think the best ROM I've used for battery life is Simplicity 2.2.1v2, that thing lasted for a couple of days. That ROM is based on GB 2.3.6. I've also heard good things about Gamerz but I haven't tried it.
If you want an ICS ROM I'd recommend Slim ICS. I'm running it with the semaphore kernel at the moment and can get 2 days of use out of it usually.
I have Dark Knight 3 with Devil2 kernel running perfect on my phone
Video calls? Skype or 3G network calls?
please share
is there any custom gingerbread rom with bloatware removed and big free ram? and a kernel with OC/UV? plus great game compability?
how about MIUI?
Have yet to find one to best DjangoMouche 1.2.1 its GB 2.3.4 its customized, with different themes to choose from and a good bunch of performance tweaks. everything has been running smooth.
games run well, things load fast
I'm using Gueste overclock v1.8.1 kernel but thats up to choice. i found it works great between 900 - 1300mhz. but above that its rebooted on me a few times.
You could try Temasek's CM7 Rom with it's own kernel, it has OC/UV and all that things.. Run's pretty smooth and stable but i can recommend you to use GO Launcher EX with an ICS Theme :good:

Currently on DJ 1.5RC1 and have to say it is truly magical.The feel of performance,smoothness and speed is just incredible.Always try to experiment with other GB roms and always drawn back to DJ ROM.DJ roms provide many choices according to our needs and customization as we like with transformation packs.So have to say this is the best choice i will ever have:cyclops:

Hi, this is my first post here. I have been flashing various roms and a few basebands and rils in my quest to get better battery life from my LG Optimus 2x. In the end. Most of what I have done is experimental and I can not say I understand much about versions and combinations. Last night, I read quite a few posts about the Django Manouche rom and downloaded all the three versions of the 1.6, the stock, the Spica and the Gueste.
Flashing led to boot looping on the Spica rom, powering off on the Gueste rom while on the stock 1.6s it ran OK, with some applications not running until I rebooted.
I came from a stock LG rom and was wondering if I need to change the baseband and kernel also, for these to work.
Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance.
I think these "best rom" threads are forbidden but I'll give my 2 cents anyway, in case I'm wrong:
for me the best rom is Gueste Hybrid revolutions 3.7, is a hybrid between stock Rom and cm7.2, and symbiosis kernel 1.3.
I get great performance, great battery life, great ram management. I can't really complain, I'm so satisfied that I'm not that eager to get ICS (at least not as much as I was before).
LG optimus 2x, rom Gueste Hybrid 3.7
@daas88. Taking your advice, I have flashed the same combination as you, just this morning. I have been very active on the phone since then, so I can't tell right away, if there is any improvement in battery life.
By the way, I continue to be on the 20i baseband.
I shall report back soon.
Temasek
Probably the cleanest install would be Temasek. A very stable CM7 build. It's sort of finished, and offers a great experience. Use it with Temasek's, Spica's or symbi0sis kernel.
I've tried DM and it's great, but this just feels cleaner.
gl!
I have been reading about the Temasek rom. What is your view on its battery consumption? That is something I am focussing on. The stock LG set up lasts for about 9-11 hours on my phone, with full 3G, about 4 hours of wifi usage and about 1-2 hour of music (Neutron music player). I have a battery pack that I carry with me to work, but it is a big bother.
So, basically, to me battery life is top priority. If I can extend it to 12-15 hours, I am home and dry.
I've used Temasek for a long period of time, and though I don't want to go back to gingerbread (currently on Paranoid Android) I do miss the battery life. With Temasek (or stock CM7) I would get about 32 hours of battery life: a day and a night. This with some browsing, playing music checking e-mail.
Overclocking would lose you some of that time, but the toggle2g app would win it back. :good:

Increased CPU performance, larger screen and stagnated battery technology will do this
As for battery life, I do miss my Nokia 3210! :laugh:
A small update. I charged my phone to 100% yesterday evening at 7 PM. From then on till now, what I observe is that with the phone in standby mode, the battery consumption curve remains almost flat. But the moment I start using some apps, for instance the Number links game for 15-20 minutes, the battery level drops by 10%.
This is with the Gueste Hybrid ROM and the Symbiosis kernel.
Further update: The battery went to 14% and then I charged it. 15 hours. Some improvement. It may be too early to comment, but this set up seems to work superbly when the phone is on standby. When the phone is in use, the consumption seems to be high. Could it be improved by changing the BB or the ril?

my record was 6 hours of screen on time with a cm7 rom and etana kernel with ds battery driver. but now i cant get even 4h screen on time with the same config (only updated versions) :/

I'd try a new battery... I can get 8 hours screen on with wifi(depending on usage but screen and wifi on constantly). Temasek and symbi0sis...

Go to Android Development Section and you will find your answer hopefully..
even I would like to know. seems both are very good.
if noone answers do a comparison and include battery life, performance etc.
Speedmod is original
hl note core is adapted speedmod so use same versions of speedmod when doing so

I've used both, and prefer glnotecore (have beenn off speedmod about 3 wks). On my note, it is smoother, more stable, and faster. I also get great batt life for this level of performance. Of course, we're finding that there are some fairly significant variances note-to-note, so you really need to test both on your phone to know what works best for you, but I can attest to notecore's overall performance. Fwiw, I'm using same dev's latest rom (cleannote) along with latest kernel (6.1, which is not speedmod-based). If you're using a rom with lots of scripts and tweaks, then notecore isn't for you as it is optimized without such items (read thread to learn more about why). It may also not be for you if you're looking for lots of mods... dev is focused on performance and stability without trendy bells and whistles. Hope this is helpful to you.
Think of them like this:
SpeedMod = original Samsung Kernel but "safe"
NOTECORE = customized Samsung Kernel and "safe"
If you're going to use the Stock TouchWizz ROM with minimal changes, go for SpeedMod, it should be more stable.
If you want to customize your NOTE with a TouchWizz-based ROM, go for Notecore, you can underclock the min frequency (save battery), then overclock max freq (faster), then undervolt it slightly (save even more battery). Then use a more effecient governor like InteractiveX or Ondemand (save battery without losing performance). Then you can overclock the gpu, and get smooth performance with the ChainFire3D plugin.
Then again, if you really want ultimate customization... you'll need AOSP ROM + Kernel.
Examples:
A) SpeedMod K3-9 + (Samsung) LRG ROM = Samsung Experience
B) NOTECORE + m3dd0g's LiquidSmooth v3.0 = Custom Experience
C) ANiKernel + AOKP build 41 (milestone 6) = Deep Custom Experience
I'd say it depends on how you use your device,
If your not addicted to flashing & you want a stable smooth phone with minimum issues, use SpeedMod
However, if you like to tinker & don't mind a few bugs go with notecore.
At the moment notecore is hit & miss, a new version (sometimes 2) everyday tells you its not there YET.
I started with v1 through to v5, whilst at its best notecore is the fastest kernel for our note, for me there was always the occasional freeze that didn't happen with SpeedMod or funky, or even with earlier versions of the same kernel.
PS. This is not a criticism of the dev, I donated to him for his work on the kernel & a few years ago for his superb windows mobile (cleanex) roms
I feel the need to mention this to avoid any potential flame wars igniting as some folks get a little 'Apple' when you speak objectively.
Chances are notecore will get there, but for me right now, SpeedMod whilst lacking the outright speed of NC, its just as smooth but more reliable.
As always ymmv.

Agree with that.
NoteCore is all speed. SpeedMod is stable, smooth and reliable.
I had corrupt sd-card on NoteCore, don't remember which version but I never tried it again. Things have gotten better and I might give V7 a try.
As for people getting apples - welcome to Internet there are E-Rambo-Hulks everywhere.:silly:

Haha, E-Rambo-Hulks, not heard that 1 before.
Also had issues with the sd card unmounting & apps uninstalled on reboot.
Just tried v7 so far the freezing has gone, especially with dead trigger.
will give it a few hours/days.
Edit: freezing still happening, back to speedmod.
ive never had an issue with either kernel but for me notecore out performs speedmod hands down.
There are 2 versions of notecore, Standard and extreme, Extreme does not work for everyone (strange but true) But it works for me
No issues, No FC's, No lags, No battery drain.
I play dead trigger A LOT and i have the tegra 3 graphics enabled and it is buttery smooth. Awesome game if i must say so.
But the only way to know which one is right for you is to try them both and heavily test them
What works for one person doesnt mean it will work for another.
notecore kernel are AWESONE.....

Completely agree with you. Anyone that feels speedmod is just as smooth but more stable must not use their phones for gaming or other CPU intensive apps because the difference is HUGE if you are comparing the OCed version with the regular speedmod.
Of course, it all depends on what the person needs it for and nothing beats testing for yourself since it takes little time to flash back and forth.
Regards

i said it was just as smooth & more reliable, i gave my opinion based on my experience,
please accept my apologies if english isnt your 1st language so you dont understand what you're typing, but for you to assume how another person uses their phone based on your experience, makes no sense.
notecore is fast, no question, but for me, with fifa12, dead trigger, nova3, gt racing... all play just as smooth with both kernels, where i notice the speed difference is on things like launcher transitions or opening solid explorer NC is a fraction quicker, not Huge, we're talking milliseconds quicker.
again, genuine apologies if your comment has been misinterpreted but the point still stands... your experience will be different to others (vice-versa).
In my personal experience I find both of them good in their own ways. Note core is a full performance kernel while speedmod Is a balanced kernel. I keep coming back to Note core because of it's brilliant performance, thanks to Gavin .

Look mate... I understood what you said perfectly so no idea what your language comment was about.... And I would like to see a video of Nova 3 on both kernels on your phone because I test every rom and kernel pretty much and I know that the performance is not the same... I hope English is your first language so you can understand that 'talk is cheap' ....

Theoretically you are right.
In practice, you may not be.
SpeedMod = stability oriented.
NOTECORE= speed oriented.
AOSP kernel = speed and feature oriented.
Nova 3 could run fullspeed on Stock Samsung, SpeedMod, Notecore and AOSP. Or Nova 3 running fullspeed only on AOSP. Or only on Notecore and AOSP.
Obviously, it depends on how good the device (they're not created equal) and rom is, as well as the user (different apps installed, different forms of usage).
The only way to decide is to test them personally and see what works for you.
I'm using and testing also both, and all versions...... If you compare it with cars, or car builder, then Hardcore is more the "settled" one, like Mercedes, that is a kernel, that is solid, stable and do what it should do..... Speedmod is good, if you want to have a kernel with good performance, but you don't want to Overclock or something...... And I think, here speedmod is very good....... For Users, they don't want to screw on setups, just having a kernel, that is installed and good!
Gavin is more like a tuning builder, like amg that takes the Mercedes and try to get out more performance on every little part of the engine....... But also get stable enough to win the 24hours race in LeMans
My favourite is Notecore, cause I'm also a screwing fan...... To get as much performance as can out of my note, and here is Notecore definitely on Pole Position....... Since V4 performance is so good, that I get the first time really satisfied......... All runs very fast, apps open like rockets..... Game performance is awesome (gaming Dead Trigger with full effects and tegra effects also triggered on, runs smooth as butter), and also on heavy apps like Photoshop touch, there is enough power to render effects on high resolution pics from Cameras like the CV-5 with 4096x2048 px in png nearly uncompressed......
But Notecore is a performance Kernel, if you are a bit sensible, and you get a heart attack, if your phone gets a little bit warm.... Than better use a kernel that is a bit more conservative.....

@ Kangal
Nice summary,
@shaolin95
Really not fussed enough to flash both kernels make a video just to prove a point (I'm yawning at the thought), I have no reason to lie about the smoothness, simply want what most people want, great performance with stability, still it's just a phone, I don't fret about getting 5 more fps.
If you're getting that with NC then I'm happy for you. I'm not, but I'll say again, it's only a matter of time before the dev gets it spot on. Until then speedmod works great for me.
All the best.
From classic rom. Has tried note std v7 for 3 days. Very smooth and battery drain performance was superb as well. But having same issue with other user. UI sometimes will hang for few second without any respond. But still able to pull down notification bar.
Tried speedmod k3-9 yesterday till now, stable, battery performance not bad at all, smooth and no single hang.
Battery performance is very subjective things, u must try it and compare by your self.
