I would like to update my note to KingDroid ICS Notemania 7.4 ( from 7.2) and I have a dilemma. Which kernel will be better ( OC version)- faster, consumes less batery- to use it for 3d games and also for standard use( phone calls, pdf reading, internet ,etc.).
Does someone test both of them and can recomment better one? Maybe you can insert some benchmark results?
Both are great. Both notecore and hydracore are almost the same. But I prefer hydracore. Both gives me around. 4500-5400 quadrant score.. Try both kernels.

I'm amazed when I see people getting such high scores. I'm on Rocket tom with speedcore and get 4200. Is it best to test with no screens filled with apps? I switch active ones off, but I've not been impressed with any scores. I mod for cosmetic reasons.
Sent from my Samsung note, running smooth coochie ROM, with omg kernel.
dude...
hydracore = notecore + multiROM
notecore was updated to support more than just touchwiz ROM's so it was renamed to hydracore
Ok. Thanks al for answer.:good:

OK So this is the burning question i have to ask next. ??
!!!! N-7000 SERIES ONLY !!!!!
BEST ROM with FULL Galaxy Note Spen Functionality and all the Touchwiz apps.
with WHAT KERNEL ?
and how long have you been running the rom? with how often does the rom Crash (making the phone do a soft reboot)
I am very curious to see what people are running on there Gnote since now that the Gnote now is becoming so popular. i am personally running Checkrom NOTEHDv5 with normal CF kernel and it is stable but sometimes it crashes and there alot of bugs. and i am in the market to changing roms but this is my DAILY use PHone so i am curious what my proud Gnote friends are running on there devices.
i used many of the roms out there and i end up using the new midnote 2.2
i think its the best ics rom so far , with every thing working on it . the good thing about it is down clocked to 1.2 ghz , which is good for the battery .
My choice:
Rocket ROM v23 with Franco Kernel (latest test-version).
Fast, stable, super battery-life. Couldn't be happier with a gingerbread-combination.
Lol i don't know what one i want to switch to :-\

I try many roms and i find this:-
- if you like ICS but without full galaxy note functionality go as AOSP latest vesion
- if you like ICS with full galaxy note functionality go as midnote 2
- if you like gingerbread with battery life go as checkrom
that is my personal opinion
but i want to know, why all people go to rocketrom not checkrom ?
Yes!! What Elk said.. RR V23 with Franco #9
I personally like checkrom but i am using hardcore's kernel and its amazing

CheckROM HD. I tried 4 or 5 ROMs including TeamRocket but this is by far the best. 3-4 days of battery life with light usage, NO crashes, kitchenpro app (google it!).. pretty amazing for me!

With harcore's kernel, it's hard to troubleshoot problem due to logcat being disabled.

he is getting alot of support from the community, and his new 2-8 Kernel really makes my note fly and run very smooth.. when i was on Stock CF or abyss or another kernel (can't remember) i was getting crashes all the time.. if you haven't tried out his kernel yet.. i would plus i get 2 days battery life on it also.

Plan to go back from ICS.
To wait for my official ICS from Samsung.
Any ideas which GB ROM to use will top the quadrant benchmark list?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
for me DarkyROM_Note v 3.4.1 + franco kernel v10
Cassie's xtraliterom gives me score 3859 in quadrant benchmark. Is that anywhere near Notes potential?

Running the Litening Rom with Abyss Kernel4.2, oc'd to 1.6 on performance for the quadrant test. Typically I choose the "on demand" governor for every day use - just safer.
Ahywho - here's the score I get.
Edit: I do Love ICS, but gingerbread runs much faster and most items are functional, so tough decision either way. I usually nandroid back and forth between the two
I'm on the latest Checkrom with Abyss Kernel 4.2 and a slight overclock to 1.5Ghz. My score is 4433.
I'm using Nemus launcher which to me is on of the smoothest launchers, I've had lag in ADW and GoLauncher.
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
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
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.

Hello,
I would like to flash a custom kernel to my SGS which is running CM9 nightly.
I had CF-Root kernel and semaphore when my phone was running GB.
Now i have ICS on it and i want to oc it so i need a custom kernel.
Which is the best? Semaphore was very good when i was using GB
Because it has so much tweaks and other things.
So i maybe install Semaphore or should i try other kernels?
use semaphore. its stable. keep it as backup and try other kernels. when and if they go Kaput or bootloops go back to semaphore. performance max is for devil. but in my case it proved unstable after a while. that's just me thou.
I tried semaphore 1.2.5 but it goes to bootloop
Bootloops are often caused by not clearing/wiping cache(s) from recovery console after flashing.
Semaphore 1.2.6 is latest one. To try that. Also clear cache, dalvik cache, init.d and ns tools.

i have 2 Recommended
1. you have midnight kernel for ics - very stable and save your battery power/
2. devil 3 - very fast kernel for gamer's . very good with OC.
SEMAPHORE

Go for semaphore.. It is awesome...
If my post helped, don't mind hitting thanks ;-)

Semaphore is the be(a)st in my opinion
Devil all the way! So many options. My phone is totally dialed for performance. And never crashes. Ever. I love it.

It depends wether you want to spend your days forever tweaking or you want out of the box no problems.... for the latter use semaphore
You'll find that most of the kernels are based on the CM9 kernel (by pawtip) and simply add extra features, or default settings. Semaphore is a good mix between 'flash and go' and tinkering, so whether you want to just leave it as default or OC, UV etc you can
What the **** ? Devil3 of course bro ! Test it, you wont change the kernel ever !!!
On CM9 first i used MNICS (midnight) without any problems. Then i switched to Semaphore but experienced a lot of problems with several versions. So i switched back to MNICS, perfect battery and fast but not a lot of tweaking.
Now i'm on Tiramislim v2 with the devil kernel and its superfast and good tweakable. Has a lot of governors and a lot of settings, all you can wish for!
Dude, you should use DEVIL
in my opinion, devil is the best kernel for ics!!
semaphore is fine, but a lot of features are missing..(such as blink status, "cpu governor"- there are 4 governor only.. in devil and other kernels for ICS u can find over 10..) and a lot of other stuff are missing.. semaphore has poor features and for me, devil was even faster and better than semaphore..
I used both of them- semaphore first for 2 weeks and after that switched to devil and ive been using it like 1month so far..
)and few days ago I switched for semaphore in my brother's phone.. after 1 hour changed it to devil 2 like mine.. really tons of things are missing..)
in conclusion:
devil is the best! stable+ fast+ deep sleep+ includes tons of features and great OC (thats what u want..)
semaphore- fine, but a lot of features and options are missing, not high OC, no blink and WAY MORE..
(&devil is faster) both of the kernels are battery friendly.
For a normal everyday user what would be the main differences between SpeedMod k3-13 vs NoteCore v14-1 STANDARD ?
Right now I've got a Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 with Stock Samsung ROM 4.0.3 - I've managed to update my phone with the SpeedMod k3-13 Kernel. Perhaps a bit too early to tell but I think my battery life has improved since moving away from stock Kernel to SpeedMod k3-13.
Is NoteCore v14-1 STANDARD likely to improve battery life further?
I mostly use my phone for FaceBook, Internet and watching YouTube Video's or Movies on.
I also want to start trying out different Custom ICS ROMs, do I need to move off of SpeedRom because I read that's for Samsung Only ROMs.
If I do move to NoteCore how safe is it to flash ICS and JellyBean based ROM's from that? I'm really worried about the possibility of bricking my Galaxy Note.
Speedmod and notecore are good kernels for touchwiz roms only.. Either Samsung's or customs...
You gotta try for yourself and see what fits you better...
For aosp roms either ics or jb you can just do the wipes and flash the roms from speedmod or NoteCore, both are safe to do so..

I am using notecore 14.1 standard, on stock xxlrk
battery life is satisfying, I like this kernel mostly for GPU tweaks
I was using K3-9 on ICS 4.0.3 xxlpy also battery life was good
so it's up to you to decide which kernel will be most battery friendly for your G-Note

-Notecore 14.1std will gv you slightly more smoothness and responsive than speedmod k3-13.
Speedmod k3-13 definetely more battery friendly than notecore 14.1std
I have 2 extra batteries. So...still stick with 14.1std. Cz i like the smoothness of ui and menu scrolling.
Both kernel are great.

If your looking for a better battery life go with speedmod, notecore is also good and more smooth, it also has alot of update mostly every other day.
Netcore for me is superb... The only downside is the time that is required for a full charge

Why does the kernel increase your battery charging time? is that because the phone is drawing more power then it would with SpeedRom ?
I read somewhere that some kernels can increase the maximum charge of the battery so that it lasts longer? And that a lot of times when the battery reads 100% charged and drop the first 10% really quickly is because the battery wasn't really charged to 100%
Does anyone know which Kernels can charge the battery to it's fullest capacity and is it actually safe for the phone?
I don't mind if it means the actual lifetime of the battery is shorter as the batteries are pretty cheap to buy and easy to replace, but I don't want to do anything that damages the actual phone.

Speedmod is smoother than Notecore for me and just feels more robust.
