[Q] What's The Best Kernel - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am looking in to changing my KERNEL. I am currently using Icy Glitch V14 with Docs ICS Rom V12. I wanted to reflash my phone using another kernel.
Any suggestion for a best kernel out there that is compatible with Docs Master Rom?
Thanks for the HELP

I use mnics ( midnight)... so far the smoothest for me with great battery...

I recommand Devil
I really recommand Devil3 0.72 - works really well - the deep idle really helps improving there the battery life - and the kernel makes this rom really slik and smooth

Totally agree with you, but it's also depending on which rom you're using.
Figure out when your device runs the smoothest.
Semaphore and Devil's kernel were the best for my ICS roms

I have to agree I always use Devil kernels. Never had a problem with and version

Thanks guys for the recommendations. Ill try Devil

i use devil's kernel, it's ok but I feel battery leakage in comparison to devil2

I've always used CF-Root kernels for stock Gingerbread ROMs, no problems whatsoever

I agree. I might downgrade to devil2. The battery life on that kernel is amazing. I got 3.5 hours screen on time with 50% battery left.

Try semaphore kernel 1.2.2s a very smooth and great for battery life
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium

@calientboy: I think that doc's v12 with glitch kernel is very laggy. I'm back with my beloved Devil kernel. Also different ROM: TiramiSlim. Very smooth, no lag so far.

Does Midnight also have
- Fast Charge
- noop scheduler
- smartassv2 Governor
- deep idle (actually not that important to me)
- 391 mb (and still 720p recording)?
I have to say that i'm very content with the devil kernel, so i probably won't feel the need to switch to midnight.

I shifted to semaphore 1.2.3 s WITH LINARO CODE (test version) it is GOD
sgs i9000 = god

I'll wait until Devil kernel has incorporated the Linaro code and is properly tested.. I'm not an early adopter

Yeah Notecore V14 OC is great smooth... but the CWM recovery is very slow tho
Yes its one of the best kernels for stock roms
You will be getting a long battery life with speedmod kernel

the kernel is just awesome .. i'm using it with the last CM9

I use the latest goku kernel together with tegrak to overclock. Works also well. And I like the various cpu governors offered by thebgoku kernel.

the general impression is that kernels tame/ saddle the rom but Kingdroid v 7.1/ 7.4 , this is one rom that tames and saddles all kernels ,
choose CF root kernel in aroma for root and then switch to speedmod for battery and safety

seriously. RocketROM with Notecore. give as much battery time your grandsons will use it
btw ive been following rocketrom with notecore since its merging. instead of v12 use the latest version of hydracore 13.1b its latest version of notecore yet and is heavenly
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
I'm currently using the latest version of KingDroid now (I can't say much on RR as I've read numerous reports of people having problems migrating from RR to CM10, but that's on a different topic already), my kernel is still HardCore's SpeedMod. Though it may lack the performance it delivers on my phone, but I am fairly satisfied on the battery life that it gives out.

Any reason to change kernels in CM10?

I'm running CM10 nightly, and wondering if I will gain any performance improvement (without OC) and longer battery life if I flash one of the alternative kernels on XDA (looking at Devil and Semaphore as those seem to be the most popular)?
yes and yes, but it all depends on how you configure the kernel options and how you use your SGS...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
yes, definitely!
but to get the "best" result, of course you have to let it settle for atleast 3 days..
here is a youtube link on how to flash them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCBN-_zu5cY
i hope this helps,
cheers
Thanks for the answers. I was hoping for recommendations, do you have any?
Semaphore is looking good to me. Opinions?
I'd go with semaphore for ICS...
But for CM10 I'd use Devil..
But that's just me

If you want stability then semaphore.But if you want more tricks to make your phone even faster it is devil of course. There is one more kernel to try Mackay.
Test each to get the right one for you.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Semaphore is the one you need .
What else from having great speed with stability. Yeah, maybe Devil could provide some more speed, which is unnoticeable, for me at least.( except the benchmark tests )
Sema is the most stable one.
But devil isn't bad too.
Try them. But give your phone about 5 minutes after flashing and don't be frustrated when it's a bit laggy after first reboot.
Last days I tryed makay. --> I prefer sema
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
I prefer devil. My phone still lasts a whole day (7am - 12pm) and is much faster. I like all the options.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
On JB roms i always use the devil kernel even if the Semaphore is a very good kernel, Devil kernel allows me to entirely use my phone's habilities with no more battery drain than Sema
you will instantly notice more speed and smoothness with flashing semaphoer kernel.
+ more speed if you set up liveOC to 114%
Does anyone have any links? I'm using CM10 nightly and need a kernel so that BLM and Voodoo sound will work. I tried the latest semaphore 2.8.0 via Odin but the phone would not boot.

You should read the description more carefully. The 2.8 kernel is for JB 4.2 not CM10. Flash the 2.6.5 kernel.

I have few more questions...will i flash only kernel or i need to flash the rom together with kenrel...and can i use odin to flash kernel?Sorry for all thease questions im noob guy in this area
You don't have to flash a rom if you're happy with the one you're using. And you can download .zip's and flash in CWM if you like, but I've found that the only times I've ever got into a boot loop when flashing a kernel are by doing it this way. Not that it has happened often. But for that reason, i prefer to flash my kernels .tar in odin, I've never had a problem doing it that way, but whatever way you choose to do it take a nandroid first, just in case.

Glad to hear it. No problem
Download semaphore manager app if you haven't already done so. Also, if you used the (s) version, you need to make sure and select the bigmem option in semaphore manager and reboot for settings to take effect. Then you have 403MB RAM.

Kernel for performance

Hello all,
I am currently running the CM10.1 (Android 4.2.1) with stock kernel. I've been searching for a kernel to install but that's where I've encountered a problem - I'm pretty new here..
So, what are your suggestions for a kernel? The only thing I care is performance!

use Semaphore JB 2.9.0 kernel
f.e. I can overclock my phone to 120% to all

I've tested all kernels and for me the best performing is Devil.
