[Q] Custom Kernal - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i have a few questions i wanted to ask , i would like to flash my one to the custom kernal elementalX can anyone tell me if after flashing this kernal does the battery drain off fast or it has a normal battery drainage. will my one become slow after flashing this kernal cause i want to use this kernal to make hike up the processor speed and finally is there any risks while flashing the kernal ????

Hi there,
Please tell me what exactly device do you have. M7 or M8?

I highly recommend ElementalX. IMHO it's the best kernel available for the M7UL (Sense/GPE). Aside from all the extra features I'm getting better battery life and faster performance by undervolting and overclocking my CPU/GPU. The developer flar2 also has an app available for a small fee that is well worth the price so that you can tune all of the kernel parameters. If you are running a Sense or GPE based ROM, give it a shot and see for yourself.

like said above, its a great kernel. Battery life is good but you can expect it to drain a little bit faster depending on what settings you'll use. Anyway try it and if you don't like, you can always flash your stock kernel back.

so there is no risk of bricking my mobile or somthing like that cause previously also on some phones i flashed roms and nothing really happened and i really want to flash this kernal so i think if it is no risk then i should go ahead and flash it

If you are really worried, then just take your time, read the OP for ElementalX and make sure you understand what you are doing. I don't understand how you could flash a ROM and have nothing happen.. If you mean that it worked fine, then yes, you should have no problem with this kernel, it is rock solid.

Kangaroo Kernel is also another good one. I suggest trying elementalx and then kangaroo if you fell like trying something different. The kangaroo script to modify the settings can be a bit "advanced" for some.

[Q] what rom and kernel are best on save battery charge

every body that test different Roms and kernel, help me to find a good rom for save battery charge.
i need battery charge more for my work.
From my experience the new wild child rom and kernel is the best for stability and battery life. He makes a rom based on the telstra velocity rom or one based on at+t that you can tweak through an inbuilt application. You can only download it through his site search Google for wcx illuminati but you will have to register before you will see the vivid forum

Giving Darkraider a go at the moment
Not liking the "feature" of not being able to turn off LTE though
Will have to go back to a Tel$tra based rom to get this feature back though I think!
I am not running any cus my Raider is soft-bricked and I am stuck at hboot.
Just look at my other posts I started 3 threads spend all day on her and going no where very fast.
Battery Life
Can someone tell me a good CPU setting to balance battery life with performance? I'm running Vituous Inquisition ROM, KangBang Kernel, and using No-Frills CPU Control to set clock speed. Thanks in advance...

Personally I use somewhere in the 1500 max, 360 min range. I use the intelledemand governor and the noop scheduler. Works great for me. This is on Holics Kernel 0730 though, which I have found to be the best kernel out there.

[Q] Best Kernel for ICS Based Incredible S

Hi. If the same thread is already exists, please forgive me. Been trying to find similar thread for about 3-4 pages here, but none found.
If no, well, can anyone here suggest the best kernel for ICS based ROM for our IncS in term of performance and battery life. Thanks in advance.
XS-ICS.
What's the benefit of this kernel over another? I am sorry I am also new to this. If you can just provide some high level overview

Hi. From my point of view, each kernel has it's own advantages and disadvantages in terms of performance, battery life and etc. For custom kernel like X2 ICS (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1851121), you can overclock your IncS to higher CPU speed but PLEASE bare in mind, even though our device is the same, but that doesn't mean the optimized value to overclock is the same. My suggestion, please look carefully for pro n cons for each kernel in the forum because some kernel is not supported for certain ROMs. For me, I just flashed ICS Sense G11 v2.0.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1887379) and it went smoothly with my Android Revolution HD 3.01 ROM.
I have used a couple of custom ICS ROMs (Nik's and IceCold) and I find that the following gives the best choice of governors, clocking variability and battery life.
Choosing the right governor and clock speed will of course impact on your performance.
Also recommend XS ICS 2.2... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1851121

ICS sense version G 11 V 2.02 is also cool.... you can try that also...I had flashed this kernel along with the new radio...believe my battery strength and smoothness has improved drastically.... my phone used to get heated up like anything but after flashing these 2, it is so cool....

[Q] Custom kernel

i want to use a custom kernel but i read that customs kernels drain battery. is this still a problem? if not which is the best kernel?
Custom kernels don't drain battery at all. If anything they contribute to battery life improvements. Just my opinion though.
And before flashing a kernel you must have an unlocked bootloader. Check the General section. There are tons of threads there. Be sure to read the whole thread first before attempting anything stupid, or else you may end up with an expensive paperweight.
The best kernel is for you to find out on your own. We can't help you here. Sorry.
Hope you understood me.
thanks a lot bro
Best kernel depends on what rom you want to use with,but again ,as meow said, its up to you. I think the battery drain is mostly caused by rom and not by kernel,so be sure to pick a rom with good battery life

Stock ROM vs Custom ROM

With all the hype about the official sense 6 ota rolling out I've been considering reverting back to stock w/ root. The reason is I dont use many of the features that custom roms offer, I like how sense 6 looks and prefer it to be stock (no init.d support etc).
I dont care about features or performance, my only concern is battery life, so how does the stock rom compare to custom roms on the HTC One in terms of battery life?

I would say stick to stock as much as possible because custom roms have bugs and u have to wait till devs finds any solutions :angel:

I find that quite interesting
you are on xda-developers but recommend staying stock... somewhat of a controversy there, no?
and stock doesn't have bugs?
I have to agree with slogger. I tried most of custom ROMs on xda and none of them can match my stock 4.4.2 in combination with Elemental kernel. I have perfectly smooth, fast phone and my battery lasts around 50 hours off charge with moderate use with CPU OCed to 2.05 GHz

Alright then I guess im going to run an RUU later. One thing though, how do you get a custom kernel to flash ontop of the stock rom?

The same way you flash a kernel on a custom rom. Flash it from custom recovery. Make sure that the kernel you want to use is Sense compatible

I read that that wont work, since the stock rom has a secure kernel. You would need an unsecure kernel in order to be able to write another on over it.
But ill give it a shot regardless.

I unlocked my bootloader and flashed Elemental right away, so I guess not
No you don't. The secure kernal affects for example deleting system apps or any bloat software that you don't want. It will be back after a reboot. You can flash anything in recovery no probs

Information and Help

Hello,
I'm new here and I'm looking for a good stable rom for my daily use (fully functional) and most importantly stable , I'm actually tired of how my phone performs on the stock rom, I would like to have fast and smooth performance. Is there anything possible? Help and suggesstions will be highly appreciated.
I'm using the Rogers HTC Raider 4G.
Regards.
No one?
I think the best way to do it is to try each one for a couple of days, while making notes about their pros & cons. One person could tell you that one rom is the best, while another could tell you a different rom is the best. It's all up to you.

This is a developers forum, there are a lot of roms here for one device, I'm not a developer, I'm just an individual looking for one or two. All I'm saying is that, a developer has knowledge and experience, if a developer would care to suggest one or two, I would be out of the scenario of trying each one, because for a daily user like me, it would be a pain. You know what I'm saying, right?

Hence the 'try them all and figure it out for yourself'

OK...
I hate to do this...
But
CM 11 is nice and stable... But old...
PAC 4.4.4 is stable-ish... Has some bugs... But its in nightlies... So bugs come and go...
Ressurection Remix is really nice and stable... But very old... So you'll have some compatibility issues with things...
Any of the CM 10.2 ROMs are bad battery drainers due to old kernel issues...
Ditto for the CM 10 ROMs...
I hate sense... But any of the sense based ROMs are really stable... If you go with those... Kozmik's kernel is very nice... The senseless sense ROMs are a little messy... But very usable...

Just what I wanted to see, thanks a lot!
One more thing, the CM 11 is the 4.2.2 Rom isn't it? I've seen it on some Raiders these days, is it good for daily use?
Thankyou again.
@rignfool
I'm restricted to post in the other thread, is Kozmik's kernel compatible with the stock ICS sense 3.6 rom?
And if so, is it possible to flash it via fastboot through pc? Because I'm currently S-on and don't plan to go S-off.
Mentioning again that I have a Roger's HTC Raider.
