[Q] Need latest devil kernel for my captivate - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I was just checking if there is a latest version of devil kernel or just let me know which one was the last release with a download link if possible.
However, i am really new with such stuff . I am currently using CM 11 based AVATAR rom with CWM 6 recovery . my Phone has been really sloppy these days and came to know that Devil kernel will overclock the the processor and will have more ram . currently i am using "speedmod kernel "

Will appreciate if you share a link for walk through .
Thanks

Actually, you are using the CM kernel. Speedmod gets overwritten when flashing CM (also, speedmod only runs on 2.2 based ROM).
Now that being said, Devil kernel does allow you to overclock (OC) but it is not recommended. If you phone feels sloppy, chances are that it's cause of something else (too many apps/widgets, low internal memory, etc.).

what is the best setup for stability and battery??

Currently running CM7.1.0 on CornKernel_UCKK4_v705, and the phone is having daily lockups, and poor battery - something it didnt have during stock load, and i havent put many apps on.
I have been hunting for a Fasty rom for weeks, but it appears to be gone with the wind.
I am not interested in OC, or crazy themes, just want the long runs of stock without the lag - and also if theres anything to help the buttons from missing taps.
Incompatible rom and kernel. You need a cm7 kernel. Glitch works pretty well.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
That set up shouldn't be booting up. If anything you are running CM7 with what ever kernel it came with it. Read more there is no best, it is all a matter of opinion.
What the heck? How is corn kernel even letting you boot? CM and corn are meant for different filesystems
Sent from my CM9 ICS i897 Captivate
corn works fine on ext4 and RFS actualy ...
there is just an insane amount of info regarding android - on the CM7 wiki, it says to use mtcarey's kernel - I just assumed when they say that - it means corn made by mtcarey qualifies. if thats not true - then why is there guy on the CM forum that says:
korockinout13: "You can use basically any kernel for this. Maybe try Corn kernel ... I know it's an odin package, but you can also flash it with heimdall if you like"

Yes, that kernel was to for you to flash on stock, so you could then flash CM from its recovery. I didn't actually mean to use it as your cm kernel; I just told you to use it since the link for mtcarey's was down. Funny thing is tho, I didn't realize Corn was by mtcarey.
Did you flash the kernel again after cm installed? You didn't need to do that

Best choice Samsung Galaxy S I9000 CM 10.1 + Kernel + Modem

Hi everyone!
I installed last nightly build of CM 10.1 (31/03/2013) on my Samsung Galaxy S I9000.
I also use the standard kernel that comes with CM distribution and Semaphore's ClockworkMod Recovery 2.7.4
Everything is working great, my old phone is reborn! Except for the excessive battery drain...
I read that to solve that problem one possibility is to flash a different kernel (such as Semaphore's one or Devil's one) and to change the modem. Anyway answers on the web are neither organic nor clear.
According to you:
- which is the best kernel to use in order to solve the battery drain problem? (please give me the exact version)
- which modem should i install? and where do i find it?
- [noob question] if I flash a different kernel and then i upgrade to a new nightly build do I have to flash the different kernel again? I mean, if I upgrade to a new CM release my kernel is replaced?
Thanks a lot for your precious tips!
currently I'm using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024269 with the updated 4.2 devil kernel, quite fast, not having much luck with the modem though as the supplied one didn't seem to work, flashed a few from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30588173&highlight=nz#post30588173 and finally got signal, but I'm unsure if these were meant to work with cm10.1 or not as it was an older thread for cm7/9 etc.. and I can't seem to find any info on cm10.1 modems specific to NZ
as for your kernel question; it kinda depends on the ROM, if it's an update then you will keep the kernel you had earlier, but new ROMs usually come with their own, I like to try out a few different ones and decide for myself what works for me, just make sure your kernel is made for the android version of your ROM, eg: there are devil kernels for 4.1.2 that will not work on 4.2.2, you need the 4.2 specific, also applies when flashing gapps..
Mackay and Infamous are really great and smooth. The built in kernel is very good. Set deep idle on but there is not much difference between cm10.1 kernel.

[Q] I need a little help with upgrading

Hi, i have a samsung galaxy S i9000 and i'm kinda new with it
all i want is to make it faster because it runs very slow , i've seen youtube videos about testing some games on the same phone but some of them won't even open up. i got more interested in upgrading it and started searching around on how to. So here is what i want to do:
I want to upgrade it by changing my Rom in Cyanogen 9 and kernel Devil 3. I don't even know if it is good but i'm sure its better than gingerbread.
Can some1 help me out with it , maybe post a little tutorial how to do it.
Aditional info :
-I don't want so save anything from it
-It's rooted
-Firmware version: 2.3.6
-Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-i9000XXJVU-CL851880 [email protected] #2

CyanogenMod (CM) 9 is really outdated. If you want a good, fast ROM I can recommend Slimbean. It's largely based on CM. You can find more info here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2060374
Detailed instructions can be found in that thread and on the slimrom website.
Coming from Gingerbread you'll need to install CM10 first, otherwise you will lose your IMEI, which will render your phone unable to make or place calls. Once on CM10 you can then flash Slimbean.
Or using an newer version of CM

Memory: 369 mb
Cm vers: 10.1.2-galaxysmtd
Okay different kernel i have no experience with it ,sorry...
But overclocking is available with the stock-kernel in CM 10 ...to about 1200mhz in the performance menu under your settings ...have you activate developer options and performance...do you know how to do it???

Your clock isnt stable go download semaphore kernel or devil kernel and flash it in recovery and try then over clocking with their kernel managers.

Do i flash semaphore kernel same way i installed ROM?
Will semaphore replace current ROM (cm10)??
Did some1 had any problems with semaphore kernel ? like bricking the phone? is it stable?
Is anyone at the current time having cm10 with smaphore kernel overclocking at 1.2ghz ?
Does Sgs i9k support the overclock stable?

You flash semaphore the same way you flashed your rom and it will replace stock cm kernel your rom will stay the same make sure you flash the right version to avoid any bricking. It makes cm run better. Overclock depends on your phone some people can overclock high some not so much. Download semaphore changer governor to sio and liveoc to 110% and set min frequenci 400Mhz. That should be enough to make it supper smooth

EDIT: make sure after flashing to download semaphore manager from the playstore its like a control panel for semaphore where all the settings are and i repeat make sure you flash the right version for your android version and phone i9000.

I don't get it why do you want to flash another kernel? Aren't you happy now with smooth CM10.1x? Here on this forum are many flashing freaks who flash and overclock their phones until the device completely crashes.
CM10.1x is excellent already way it is, if you want to even improve it (first of all to get about double battery life) just upgrade it to the newest nightly version of CM10.2 tomorrow (build 20130828), it will finally have all bigger bugs fixed. Very soon, stable CM.10.2 build will be released out of this nightly. This is the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2385178
If you want to do it, just mind that the developer (pawitp) doesn't mention anymore installing gapps, so this would be the workflow from your present ROM:
Do a Nandroid Backup of your CM10.1.2 build before the upgrade!
Go to CWM recovery mode and check first in "install zip" if your zips of the CM10.2 and Gapps for 4.3 are visible on your internal SD card
Wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache
wipe dalvik cache (under "advanced")
Install the nightly ROM zip from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
Install Gapps for CM10.2 (Android version 4.3) while still in recovery
Restore /data from Nandroid Backup (the update will wipe your /data) while still in recovery
Reboot system
The partition layout of CM10.2 (beginning from 20130816 nightly) differs of that of CM10/CM10.1. The first install will wipe your /data to switch to the new layout, but after that you may use CWM to restore/backup data of CM10/10.1/10.2 (in CWM recovery under "advanced restore" then "restore data" from your CM10.1 nandroid backup)
This way done, you should have all data, wallpaper, widgets and apps like in your CM10.1 right after the reboot. And wait until tomorrow, when the 20130828 nightly gets released. I've been using "buggy" builds (nightlies between 24 and 27 Aug) without any problems, but some people had problems with them.

how to overclock the Cappy

our cappy is fast as it is on 4.2 but i have yet to overclock a phone yet and i hear its not like taking the risk of OC your computer so i would like to try it out on the cappy first. so i have googled this already and it comes up with somone already OC it to 1.2 ghz which i would be fine with but in order to OC you need to flash a kernal i think it said? i am not fimilular with kernals with all of the phones i have messed with i have yet to touch kernals, the only time i have flashed a kernal (had a interesting custom recovery) was to root my cappy to put CM on it and got CWM after. i dont see the points of them other than more customization which im not interested in, so how would i go about doing this can someone help me out please?

You do indeed need a custom kernel that allows it. Flashing them is fairly simple, you just need a Odin flashable version if you don't wanna go the custom ROM way.
Make sure that your kernel is made for the current version your phone is running and that it's for the I897! As per your signature, Corn kernel would be your best option as it is for GB.

as of last night i flashed Cyangenmod to get CWM and then flashed paranoid android 3.99, mines a I896 btw i think since i got a bootloop its on At&t/firmware. (only useing on wifi for now) i had corn kernel before to get a recovery and root but if i want to OC it would i have to get corn kernel again? it was a pretty slow boot up every time i turned it on with the stock rom.
No you don't have nor want to. Corn is for GB, if you flashed CM, you're probably on JB.
You'll just have to flash a JB kernel that allows OC (like devil).

so i was looking through some of my stuff on my cappy (cyangenmod 10.1.3 on it) and i looked at the performance option and it has the option to overclock it to 1.2 GHz, would i have to flash a special kernel? or am i fine like this?
Default CM kernel supports 1.2GHz step overclock, just set it and test for stability issues. Nothing else is needed.

first of all the t211 is a tablet not a phone . you have a dual core clocked at 1.2ghz im sure thats pretty fast i think its because you have too many apps. if you still want to overclock ask at the q&a section of its offical forums here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-3 . cyanogenmod sometimes have the option to overclock their devices, i would check that out as well

OC is a kernel option so simply flash a kernel that allows it. That being said, you're not on the right sub-forum like Trozzul mentioned. Be sure to flash one for your tablet. OC has its disadvantages so make sure you read about it before going through with it.

I can't find an overclockable kernel for cm 11 4.4.2 n7000

Hello guys, I have forgot my old username here, I don't even come on xda since a long time, I used to have the cyanogenmod 10.1.3 version of cyanogenmod since months (4.2.2)
because of it's highly customization

and easy to find an overclockable kernel (NX Kernel) a pure happyness.
But... I'm updating my stuff to a newer nightly because I want new stuff.
I also want to overclock it, but I can't find the right thread for a list of overclockable kernel for cyanogenmod 11 at 4.4.2
Could someone help me ? ( I know that I have to search, but I can't found it, that's unbelivable )
We haven't got any 4.4.2 compatible overclockable kernels. You might want to give tegrak overclock a try though, that might do it (on the stock kernel).
