I am opening this thread as I feel there is room for discussion on the amazing Nexus 7 and the incredible Kernels available .. so feel free to post your opinions.
Lets help the newcomers make the appropriate choice (difficult)
Lets talk about
-Performance ( normal usage, gaming..)
-Battery life
-Features
-Device support (internal and external)
-Rom support
-General requests to all devs
At the moment of this writing we can count on
-TRINITY
-MOTLEY
-FAUX123
-STOCK (of course)
-FRANCO
-CLEMSYN'S
-ATLANTIS
-AQUARIA
And the list shall continue and updated
So lets hear your opinions and preferences.
Cheers

I've used stock, cm10's kernel, the faux kernel (briefly), trinity (briefly), atlantis, and _motley's.
I stuck with _motley's. Best kernel I've used on pretty much any device. Superbly fast, linaro-optimized, great voltage tables, incredibly stable, and completely glitch-free
Currently running 1.1.1, undervolted by 100mV, all default clock speeds, interactive/deadline, and a 512MB zRam
Pure butter
Faux's "mainline" kernel releases is a balance of performance and good battery life, undervolted my N7 to -75mV. It's so much better(in my opinion) than the default kernels of stock, cm10 and AOKP. Gaming-wise it's definitely very optimized. I've yet to try other custom kernels. Been a fan of his kernels since from htc one x and now in N7.
Tapatalked from my HOX
I prefer _motley's mostly because I can see most of what was changed/added in the changelog, and it works nicely
Trinity is straight to the point by generally saying what is tweaked, which is nice, but I just like to see what is changed. Also the app for Trinity kernels seemed to show strange behavior when I last used it with settings either not sticking, or changing randomly, but I believe there was a reason for this explained in the thread.
Faux's is nice as well mostly because of the other linux kernel parts used, but doesn't allow for disabling of fsync (while I respect Faux's decision on not allowing the option; I prefer speed over stability) which is pretty much the only reason I don't use it now.

Disabling fsync also saves a decent amount of battery
I just got my N7 four days ago and since I am a flash addict I tried most of them always sticking to the same Rom (EOS) in order to make a fair comparison.
.
I like Trinity very much.. is a no-hassle kernel..but as I was with Faux's magnificent work since the days of the Atrix, I decided to give his newest 008 a shot.
I find it to be well balanced (performance/battery) ..
I have not UVd any. I prefer the dev set of tables and come to a conclusion from his own work.

For some reason Trinity is having unstable releases lately. I switched to faux's 10 ultimate. Is great.

thanks for the assumptions, but not true. the kernels are always posted at derkernel.com right away, for those with the app and without. all you have to do is look. or, you can opwn the thread and read it from the last page, youd see that a111 has been out. there is never a kernel released for people with the app first, we do not play that game, that is wrong. it either released to all the public or its not released at all, end of story.

Oh, don't take me wrong.. I am not making any assumptions nor suggesting that you have any kind of preference for those who have the app. No Sir. I have the app but at the moment not being used because I am with another kernel.
When reading der-kernel as I do on a dayly basis, it states ( not the precise words ) "all kernels are 1600 except if stated otherwise in the file name". Good.

then its i that made the assumption
anyways, the "all kernels are 1600 except if stated otherwise in the file name" is really for all the other trinity kernels for other devices. i do agree with you though, that morfic should change that since the n7 kernels dont have the cpu speed included in the name except for the tsvz kernels(they are all 1400mhz).

K so I've been trying to read up on this kernel business and not had any luck. I don't consider myself super tech savvy but at the same time I'm not an idiot. Could someone tell me what this does? Do I flash it like another ROM? Or just point me in the right direction.

Note: I am not the maintainer of this ROM.
Has anyone here installed and implemented ShadowROM 0.2.2 for every day use? I am curious as to how it performs, with stability and ease of use being two of the more important attributes. Please reply with your experience, and this post will be updated with any bugs or notable issues that appear systemic.
Download link: ROM Manager
Known Issues:
I installed it but didn't tried for daily use because (just like MIUI) the media scanner doesn't recognize pictures/music from emmc. It is based off CM6 so many of the features of that ROM are present here. The only "highlight" feature I noticed was an option to disable the bootanimation. They have a whole subforum at DroidForums so you can get more info here:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/shadowrom/
The announced they are going to split from CM6 source code, so it'll be interesting to see what stuff they come up with. Here is the thread where they make the announcement:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/shadowrom/93037-important-shadowrom-breaking-up-cm6-future.html
Cheers!
I ran this ROM for about 2 weeks strait and found very little problems with it. It has nice customization features like changing the notifications bar color and the drop down bar color along with the text color of notifications etc. It was very fast running Launcher Pro and great on battery (although I use SetCPU and underclock to save battery) running KK's AOSP BFS kernel.
Just like the above poster said tho about it not recognizing files on emmc is an obvious problem, tho it wasn't a major issue for me. Lot's of AOSP roms have problems in that area until they get fixes.
I'd say try it out, just nandroid first so you can go back if you don't like it.
So what's going on with this ROM now? Did it die or what?
The ROM Manager link for it doesn't work and the website offers no information.

Billygalbreath (one of the dev's of SR) turned his attention full time to application development jubefore Christmas. Shortly after Christmas InsaneNemesis (the other dev) informed me of his decision to discontinue further development of ShadowRom and that he would be returning the development phones to me. The reason being he wants to enjoy his last year of high school. Can't argue with that and I wish him the best. He was very absolute about unplugging and enjoying life. Insane used to idle in the Cyanogen irc channel but I haven't seen him there in at least two weeks.

They actually did get it working using one of Koush's kernels that had the required drivers. However, I'm not sure they publicly released that version.
Stock? Bricked? Xenon? They seem a bit outdated and people seem to be having some issues in the thread, should I stick to the one that comes with CM9?
I have never used a different kernel. I dont see the point when we can already overclock the stock one and it runs super smooth already.

For more smooth experience gpu overclocking its more important than CPU overclocking!
Sowp-1984 said in rootzwiki.com 25/6:I have not disappeared.
Real life has a way of getting between the things you wanna do and have to do, that's why I had a little kernel dev pause, but I am back since a week as the Sensation kernels show you. The touchpad is 2nd on my TODO list, the OneX is next up.
That would be great, for some reason Every rom is always at some point randomly causing reboots, no overclock
Can't find out why

Ok I've been trying to overclock this phone a nice how to would ne awsome so Iam running cm9 nightly latest from hash of codes I would like to change cpu speed any way to modify this. I'm not new to android but obviosly am no dev how to use terminal emulator to achive this I'm running the dev/tty the not shure what command to use from there. Or possiblie a module or script to run thnx
Some users are finding they're "overclocked" out of the box on the new builds. If I recall correctly speed is bogomips x 2, so you're already 20% faster than some users. This is likely due to TI/Motorola binning the chips, but it may also have been done to prevent overheating elsewhere in the system even if the CPU is capable. All the overclocked ROMs I've seen have gone as far as the 1.2GHz mark so we may be maxed out at this point due to limitations elsewhere.

I open chmod in terminal but where do Igo from there or if im even going the right direction please help
You are going to have to build it in to your rom or you can use one of TeamHaters CM9 roms. The kexec roms will not support any overclocking at the moment.

Geez, why is people so obsessed with overclocking?
Why don't you wait until we have a more stable rom?
Is not like a couple of hundred of mhz are going to make much of a difference at this point.

Yes, of course, you're sure leading the innovation and development.
You're just a spoiled brat asking for something you don't fully understand.
Overclocking our device is not going to make great differences now or even when it's stable.
To "run 20 things at once" we need RAM, not processor speed.
Overclocking doesn't save battery either.
Why do I even bother.

Some CPU's are marked at e-fuse level to be not stable on speeds higher than 1ghz on the factory, and the kexec kernel seems to be addressing that, according to a comment made on the kexec rom thread.

Spelling isn't the problem. Try some punctuation.
Because cm9 is meant to be stable and fast. Since various devices react differently to being overclocked, it would introduce instabilities in some devices. That's why the performance section of settings in cm roms says, if you change these settings, do not file bug reports. Once kexec cm9 is fully operational, im sure someone will build a oc kernel

I didn't want to use Intervigilium's source because Intervigilium decided to make his source as close to stock as possible. What that means is no voltage control, overclock, GPU overclock, etc., basically nothing unique. Also, since I don't actually own a Vivid, patching that source with all those features would be difficult because I'd have to be testing everything after adding a feature (to make sure that it's working properly and that it boots up).
I also looked at the commit history and there isn't any fix that's crucial or necessary for the Holiday, so there is no downside to using KangBang source. If I find a commit that's interesting in Intervigilium's commit history then I'll just patch the KangBang source with it.

just got home... oh well happy to wait :victory:
also you probably may want to include the original crossbreeder link to your op as not many kernels support it and not many even knowing about it:

Whaaaat Goo.im is down again
The Aroma installer for r20.8 of my Sensation kernel has an option for softswap, however, because I don't have a physical device to test, an Aroma installer is out of the question with this kernel. With an Aroma installer I have to check if the settings will work, which mods work with the phone, the directories for all the settings, etc. Sorry =\
ALSO, all kernels support CrossBreeder but very few kernels support frandom. Frandom makes CrossBreeder much faster; this is feature #5 of CrossBreeder:
idcrisis said:
5. Frandom support - CrossBreeder now supports linking both your random devices to the extremely fast alternative - Frandom ( http://billauer.co.il/frandom.html ). This module is orders of magnitude (10-50 times) faster than the standard character devices ( Check this out - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37409586&postcount=134 ). The erandom character device also installed by Frandom doesn't use up system entropy at all on top of being fast. You will need to ask your ROM developer to develop the kernel module for you and then place it in /system/lib/modules. CrossBreeder will then try and load it and if successful, make all the necessary adjustments so that both /dev/random and /dev/urandom are pointing to /dev/frandom and /dev/erandom respectively. The speed benefits are to be seen to be believed. But since each ROM requires a unique kernel module, this option is left optional ( but auto detect ).

Antutu and quadrant scores in my sig.
however, cpu1 is staying in ondemand 384mhz=1566mhz
Awesome, love to have another friendly helper to get us some nice new hardware drivers [read: kernel], as we are lacking in that dept right now. So, I am sure I speak for many others, the little Vivid community is very grateful for whatever you can bring to us .

Download No-frills CPU Control and in the settings for No-frills prevent other apps from changing the CPU settings.

Awesome! I'm trying this out currently. Seems VERY fast! I'll give it a couple days to see what the battery life is like. I am skeptical that we can get THIS much performance increase without battery life going into the toilet, but I'm hopeful anyway.
One thing I was hoping for would be increased in-call volume, which seems to be the same so far. Volume controls still don't affect the vol level in-call. No confirmation on if the echo is gone for the person you're speaking to. I'll update when I find out.
Either way, it's GREAT to have more options Thanks for your hard work, especially considering you don't even have a Vivid!
EDIT: Update - CRT-Off is missing (or excluded)

I didn't want to use Intervigilium's source because Intervigilium decided to make his source as close to stock as possible. What that means is no voltage control, overclock, GPU overclock, etc., basically nothing unique. Also, since I don't actually own a Vivid, patching that source with all those features would be difficult because I'd have to be testing everything after adding a feature (to make sure that it's working properly and that it boots up).
I also looked at the commit history and there isn't any fix that's crucial or necessary for the Holiday, so there is no downside to using KangBang source. If I find a commit that's interesting in Intervigilium's commit history then I'll just patch the KangBang source with it.
R1 already has frandom support Most of the performance features from my Sensation kernel are in r1, but there are still a few left that I'll have you all test.

For jellybean...the in call Mic was fixed...not sure if you implemented the fix into your kernel...but if you haven't that's a pretty crucial thing
Anyways like I said earlier glad to have another dev around..especially a kernel dev

Battery life should be better because I ripped out all the debugging garbage I could find. Does CRT-off work with Intervigilium's kernel?

None of vivid kernel don't have OTG Host support.
it will be great if you add this to your kernel.
i have try to add this to an htc source kernel, it work but some modules like wifi,.. don't work after that (don't have enough knowledge)
Howdy.
Took advantage of the latest google offer to get myself a Nexus 4 - my Razr i just had literally no development and a lot of apps wouldn't even run due to x86 architecture! Arggh!
So anyway, mine is arriving soon (hopefully) and I'd like some pointers on what to check out first - Cyanogen is always worth considering of course
I mainly look for a good kernal to save me power but not skimp out on horse power when needed - a good deep sleep/idle function
Also a lightweight rom which is very snappy, I'm sure I'll find some roms to love based on the sheer amount of development on this section! Send your suggestions in and I'll be sure to check them out! :good::good::good:

First, Franco kernel is amazing ! make sure to set governor CPU on "interactive" and GPU on "ondemand".
MBQ_'s Vanir is by far the snappiest i'v experienced (and I have flashed dem roms ).
Me personally, I find Stock + Franco to work the best.

Awesome I'll make sure to check it out! Obviously each rom is going to be good for different things but having never owned a nexus device I'm usually romming to get rid of bloatware from motorola/HTC etc. so I suppose the advantages are usually additional features for nexus devices

Exactly Best rom the has a lot of features, while maintaining preformance, stability and battery life is deffinatly Paranoid Android. They do amazing innovation in the Android field. Im flashing latest PA build as we speak.

Sounds great
Put it this way, i went from HTC desire where I could change roms weekly - finally settling on oxygen which was totally stock android and great
Then Razr i - it took 7 months or something to even get jelly bean, 0 roms and now we finally have like two to choose from? They are good in terms of i'm not a developer and i appreciate what they do, but both are riddled with bugs

Well, you are going to enjoy the Nexus experience
Wellcome!
Saves me the hassle of creating a thread like this.
So I guess my nexus ( which will hopefully arrive later) will be getting PA.
Do I unlock the bootloader with "fastboot OEM unlock" to flash custom recoveries etc? I come from a HTC phone so forgive if this question sounds stupid to you

Glad it can be of help - i dont want to take away from other developers of roms, but a starting place is always handy especially considering the sheer amount of development this phone has!
Anyway, i'll be following this guide when I get mine

I've never really liked PA because of the different modes (phone, phablet, tablet, etc) would make if hard to modify everything easily for me (but thats cause i dont like phablet or tablet modes, prefer stock phone style)... Im using crDroid and it runs great with purified kernel. Ive tried Vanir and that one also was pretty good
You should do what i did, flash a few and test them out. They all have different variations of features...

Welcome!
I love customizing everything, so from the beginning I was on AOKP. Loved it but i think it was a little heavier than necessary..
after that I used Xylon - ( now Uxylon) which was awesome, smooth and fast, plenty of features.. but its still 4.2.2, so I had to leave it behind eventually.
Currently I'm on Slim Rom Beta, 4.3 and I'm loving it. So give it a try!
Rocking Purity & AK kernel today and loving it
Most of the roms are good in their own way...
if you want speed or customization...
Slimbean is great and of course psx

You can also check a thread in general about a poll on which rom people are using. i mean, just based from that, you can have the number of nexus 4 users, what the best rom in common people use (you wouldn't know your best if you hadn't tried the others right?) and just a few mods also you can use that will give you what you want. Just have fun in the mako forum and all the best mate :good:

Got the phone, unlocked, flashed latest pa and xposed. I'm very satisfied so far. My HTC one s didn't come close to this at all.
Now I have 2 questions. What's this JSS and JWW all about?
And can anyone recommend a kernel for PA?
