Hi,
for what reason do I a kernel flash? Are the rom included kernels better then a lonestanding once? can I flash any kernal to any rom?
what is the benifit of flashing an other kernel then the once ued in the rom?
thanks
When you change the kernel you choose a better kernel then stock.
They are more tweaked and habeas more support fir different things.
**Using my own JPX kernel, z4mod, 345MB Ram and ext2 filesystem**
- Different file system (better battery life) (I'm still experimenting with finding the right one)
- Access to the kernel allows you to use the led backlights on the buttons for notifications.
Those are currently the main reasons why I flash diff kernels.
You can have direct acces to one of the most advance lag fixes around(voodoo) better performance ,overclocking ,color correction for ur display,more user accessable ram and so on

Good question.
Samsung open-sources their released ROMs from time to time and many of the "kernel-hackers" (I'd call them plain hackers, what's with the prefix?) here utilize it to add/provide features and fix bugs (bugs are overlooked by people, its normal).
For instance, SpeedMods' kernel provides an Overclocking support for your Phone's CPU, if you want that extra juice. Likewise, Voodoo provides a set of visual enhancements among other things.
HTH
Another important reason is to regain 2e recovery if you lost it after flashing a stock firmware. This assumes the kernel you choose includes this feature
Fine, thank you all!
Hi guys,
please recommend kernel that supports USB host and doesn't break anything else. Other that that, I'm happy with stock b17 kernel, battery life is great on wifi (less than 1%/hour idle). Unfortunately stock kernel doesn't support USB host mode.
Glitch? Frankly I can't tell the difference between most of the kernels. I am just using Glitch because I used it on CM7.
As per title, I don't really like NoLED, but BLN requires the kernel to support it.
Any current (LPF, LPY) kernels that have this enabled yet?
I haven´t update to ICS because the BLN is very important for me. I´m waitting for a Abyss kernel for ICS.
If anybody knows if there is a kernel for ICS with BLN, please let me know.
I dout it very much they will be one for a long time much more important things (super brick) that's devs are trying to fix
Also most kernel devs are not keen on bln battery killer
Fluid Kernel
FOR KITKAT AOSP ROMS
This is enhancement over basic CM kernel to attain more fluidity, performance and power saving.
There is no heavy modification like NX-Kernel or Mackay Kernel which causes lag eventually.
Kernel is compiled with Linaro Toolchain 4.7-2013.10 and is bug free.
If any bug found other than one already in CM11 basic kernel, please report.
OCed but default max frequency is 1GHz.
Feature requests are welcome except for BLN feature.
Download Link:

Kernel Source:
https://github.com/neobuddy89/vibrant_fluid_kernel
Latest version:
v1.0
Any feedback/views/suggestions are welcome.
Regards,
Neo
v1.0:
+ Linaro Toolchain 4.7-2013.10 compiled
+ Entropy Depletion Fixes and Enhancement
+ WiFi wakelocks reduced
+ OC Support upto 1.4 GHz
+ Minor network tweaks
+ Reduction in memory reservation for logging
+ Memory leak fixes
+ Performance tweaks
Thanks a lot Neo. You are amazing.
Will try this out on my ROM 11/20
thanks a bunch...cant believe this phone is still running and running like a beast at that.
outdoing yourself for us :good:
Lovely!
I want to click like 999 times!!!!
Very good! Really - performance gains!

Actually KitKat was/is supposed to be a release which will help memory-challenged phones (like ours), so if anything KitKat *is* something we expect ardently and sure as hell hope that dev support won't end now, now that we finally reached an OS version actually suited for our low-ram phone(s)...
Thanks Neo for making a start in supporting us with 4.4 goodness...
Thanks for this rock kernel using it on captivate
If u can compile this kernel on captivate would be thankful
Just the difference is the volume keys layouts
Great work!!
It will be really great if you can compile this kernel also for the captivate!!

Should learn to compile your self. Or switch the volume key layout to revers it back to normal
@sada23 Is this article helpful to your already awesome kernel? http://source.android.com/devices/low-ram.html
I noticed that we have Linux 3.0.x in use, which probably lacks the "tunable reclaim" feature, but could be cherry-picked from the patch in 3.4 branch, as stated by Google:
Support for a new kernel tunable is added in the android-3.4 kernel branch as patch 92189d47f66c67e5fd92eafaa287e153197a454f ("add extra free kbytes tunable"). Cherry-picking this patch to a device's kernel will allow ActivityManager to tell the kernel to try to keep 3 full-screen 32 bpp buffers of memory free.
For those who are in search for Ramdisk source, get it here:

I reckognize that USB thethering is not working with fluid kernel and sada's unofficial KK 4.4. It ends in a reboot.

I would like to see the kernel upgrade. Just ask to remove overclocking 1.3/1.4 GHz, since it will probably kill the smartphone, and my at those speeds just hangs and you have to remove the battery!

Then don't overclock to 1.3/1.4 GHz. Some peoples devices might be able to handle it. Just because yours can't doesn't mean to nobody's can. Be smart with what you do and know what your phone can handle. Mine does 1.4GHz just fine.

I would be glad if you refer me link too
@Abhignu If You Using Any Nougat ROM For A7K The Best Kernel Is Devil Kernel (Thanks To @Aryan Kedare) Here Is : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=745849072291680224
& This Kernel Support Gestures Too & Having A Good Battery Backup & Fast Charging Support & Best Performance For A7K Phone & A Lot Of Features . If This Helped Don't Forget To Hit Thanks Button .

I would recommend Venom kernel.
Fast charging is added and it's same as devil kernel.
WiFi issues don't exist.
Plus you get awesome battery with my Poison governor and many tuneable features too.
Recently I added a tuneable to control dt2w from hardware keys or from touchscreen and added WiFi power management and a tuneable in poison governor for that too...
It's completely your choice. Devil is also good.
