[Q] Kernel

Ok so ive got twrp 2.7 recovery installed and im running malladus 1.2.9 currently and evrything is runnung great right now. Ive been trying to read about some different kernels because my intrest in them has gone up. So my question is what kernel are you running and what do you like and dislike about it if any. I know each phone can react differently to different kernels but i just want to get a feel for things out there before i decide on which kernel i want to try.

I would definitely recommend Furnace 1.7.1 for LG roms. Extremely smooth and snappy

Thank you for the recommendation!! Also i forgot to ask, but when i flash a different kernel from stock does it have its own ui to tweak the settings or do i need to install a app to tweak the settings?

So how do you tweak the settings? Sorry for the noob question but ive never dealt with kernels before and i just want to get all the info i can before i start jumping into kernels.

You can download an app called Trickster MOD Kernel Settings, or Kernel Tweaker. If your ROM supports it, you can find kernel settings in the settings application.

Personally I like Trickster Mod simply because Ive used it the longest. It gives you a wide range of things to tweak as long as the kernel itself provides them.

I used it until my settings were being reverted every time I applied the changes.

Do you have any connection problems on CROM? Like no 3g, always roaming?

There is 3g that is why it says roaming. Its not "always roaming" it only displays that when you're on 3g.
Turn on allow data while roaming and you're set. Its cosmetic, it doesn't roam.
And based on the c ROM thread, yes, it is there.
Until cm fixes it and the changes are merged to whatever ROM or the ROM devs fix it themselves it will be there.

Every kernel is different in what you can change. Take the lg stock kernel. No access to voltages and whatever else. On a custom kernel you may have access to it (if the Dev allows)
Also if you flash dominax it will install stweeks as well, basically his version of trickster.
If your phone isn't slow, why flash a custom stock kernel? I'm currently on 1.2.9 malladus with animations turned off, and its snappy as hell.
Stock kernel = no issues and best battery life.
Custom = possible sod's even on stock.

Nope, not really. Today I was in an area where I normally don't get 4G, phone then said it was roaming, but that was expected. I was having some wakelock issues while charging in the car when my phone was super low on battery (forgot to charge last night), screen kept coming on while chraging when I was trying to conserve every last bit of juice.
That being said, it's by far the best ROM I've seen yet. I've never seen so many features packed into one ROM before. IT makes PAC Man ROM look like stock. Its awesome! Def check it out!

What would you do with your Xperia T if it had a locked bootloader?

Just looking for ideas. I've rooted and debloated somewhat. What else can be done?

Install recovery
Install Xposed Framework + Gravitybox
Install any custom rom based on stock firmware (for example "Ultimate Pure XT")

Sell it!!!

Wow that looks great, will that rom have a performance hit?
I make daily backups with titanium and nandroid. Is that sufficient to fully recover back to how my phone is now if I want to remove the ultimate pure xt rom?
Also how do I know what roms are based on stock firmware?
Edit: After looking up gravitybox I still don't understand what it is. I have installed the xposed framework though.

Just install a recovery (like Philz touch) and make a backup from there, in order to be able to resume everything if you need to revert back.
How to know if a rom is based on stock? Just read the description within the first post
Ultimate Pure XT is great: you feel like you're using a Xperia Z2.

With a nandroid backup you will totally replace your phone with what is backed up, so, yes, it will restore your phone to the exact same configuration and ROM as it had when you backed it up. Doesn't back up the kernel though, so be careful with that.

Gravitybox allows for customizing certain visual aspects and functions of the phone (read up on the features). If you don't understand what it is, you most likely don't need it; if you wanted extra functions on your phone you'd Google how to do it and eventually end up at some solution for what you're looking for, such as Gravitybox.
And depending on what function of Gravitybox you're using, you might see some some decrease in speed. For instance, at least for me, when replacing and adding buttons to the navigation bar, sometimes it was a bit slower to respond; nothing I couldn't live with in order to improve Sony's Stock ROM.

I forgot to mention I already did install a recovery.
A rom that is based on the stock rom won't replace the kernel will it? Therefore the fact that nandroid doesn't back up the kernel isn't a problem right?

I am about to install that rom. But I have a small problem:
5. Wipe cache, dalvik cache and do a factory reset.
6. Now install the ROM.
7. Once finished installing the ROM, you have to flash immediately the UPDATE-SuperSU.
Click to expand...

could someone tell me these steps in a bit more detail please?
Wipe cache I THINK would be done from recovery yes? I have literally no idea what "dalvik cache" means. And do I do a factory reset the normal way? from inside the settings menu?
"Install the rom" I would assume is done through flashtool? or recovery? (I know how to do it, just don't know which one). Then I ASSUME installing UPDATE-SuperSU is done in the same way as installing the rom?
There's just a few details I'm not clear on, I never get answers by asking for more detailed installation steps inside the official rom thread, so I won't bother asking there.

Everything has to be done from recovery...
Rom and superSU are ZIP files and have to be flashed inside recovery.
Wipe cache, then go in Advanced and wipe dalvik-cache.
If you're coming from a rom on Android 4.3 you don't need to wipe data, else you have to.

Ok, well if you're that confident, I'll build it for you and you test it out. You do have a T, right?

I agree but I do not have time to completely reinstall my phone.
I wished for just root my nexus.
can you confirm this procedure with the custom kernel ?

To be honest, if you dont have the time for that simple thing then you really shouldnt mess with your device as things can go wrong that will take far more time to fix that the few min it takes to restore.

Looking for the best MM rom.

Hey guys. I'm trying to figure out the most stable MM rom. I really like DU but it keeps random rebooting. Im new to the note 4 and I just want to know what you guys suggest. Thanks in advance.

So far, AICP has been the best I've used. It's been the only stable ROM I've run besides the stock one.

yesh im on AICP too, everything works great, but i miss the camera quality on TW roms

And the camera speed

My suggestion will be stock 6.0.1 +beastmode r56 kernel+ root+xposed. Aosp roms sucks in battery life and camera in my opinion

I been using broken. It's ok but not playing well with magick mask superuser zip so I can play pokemon. Right now stock rooted is what I'm running with no issuse but I wish it was lighter
