Best ROM & Kernel for High-performance and Daily Usage..! - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

umm..to all i9k users!
We got this Hummingbird and our beautiful hackable phone in here could any one give an advice on which kernel and rom package would be better when it comes to daily usage and having a well native OC/UV support,tweaks.
here are the ones that i knew..!
ROM's
Jetpack v4,Darky 10.3 EE,Cm7,MiUi Galnet,Insanity,SURFACE v3.4..etc!
Kernel's
Galaxian,Tegrak,Glitch(nly for Cm7 and MiUi),Semaphore,Darkcore,Hardcore Speedmod..!
and from all the above ones i just tried Darky v10.2+Darkcore it was "okay" and no OC support, can i get a kernel that has the power like Trinity Kernel for Nexus S and having some pretty good tweaks and enhanced UI ??
If you got any ideas just drop em right here!!

Try CM7 using stock kernel. you will never want to change.

hmm..iv'e already had CM7 on it but it had few bugs like voodoo colour,sound were both not enabled and the random-reboots were very frequent..!

and if i flashed another kernel then how will it be?

can i know that does it have support for OC,Voodoo FIX's..??

Vote for Insanity's CM from me.
Haven't tried OC, but UV works fine and 1.6ghz OC is supported with kernels like Neo's platypus and Glitch.
Also gives good battery life even when using heavier.
Never got FC's or random reboots.

BaldozRom v6.1 with galaxian or Blockbuster with galaxian.
those two are the best for my opinion.

it's not much diference.EE is final.take a look at the changelog.

I'm on cm7 nightly 103. As there is no more nightlies coming for some obvious reasons, I decided to stick to this one until the new nightlies start rolling(#104 has battery drain issues and some other issues)... And after using this for over two weeks, I must say this is the most stable, fassst and battery efficient(60-70 hours on normal use- GPS, wifi, 3G triggered manually) rom I've ever flashed!!

[Q] What is the best Kernel for battery life vs Speed

OK i'm currently using Darkys v8 custom ROM which comes with Advanced voodoo kernel. And I haven't enabled any lag fixes. Was think of installing Speed Mode kernel. Just wanted know what is your experience between these two kernels.
1. Which kernel have more battery life without any lag fixes and tweaks ?
2. Which one of these is best to improve speed ?
Thanks.
i would not personley now i have stock frimware rooted a couple of times then accidentley semi bricked phone while applying the voodo lagfix now waiting for cyanogenmod stable for galaxy s but i think personley doc rom is the best

Thanks for the reply.. Question isn't about custom ROMs it's about kernels..
I'm using hardcores speed kernel 500Mhz which is quite fast and before I used voodoo which was also quite fast. Any you choose will be good as long is newer and stable version

I personally have use both Voodoo and Hardcores and i do see Voodoo draining battery life much faster,
Havnt tried the new voodoo though ,plan to do it tonight will let you know after.
Also voodoo plays traunt with the battery so i suggest flashing at 100% batter and wiping bat stats and then see the drain.

[KERNEL] DookMatt 2.2.2 kernel with optimized OC and LG Lagfix

This is my kernel based on 2.2.2 kernel released by LG! This kernel has LG touchscreen fix and I've added OC from HERE, ext4 and btrfs support (btrfs is experimental) and VPN support (tun.ko module).
If you would like to use this kernel: http://www.multiupload.com/H3HQT7WMSY
Do not forget to make nandroid backup first.
Packaged in koush's anykernel for compatibility with any rom.
PS: Thanks to Mik_os for his patience
PPS: With my kernel I managed to use 806Mhz and it's works very well and it's stable for my phone.
Could you define optimised OC? How is it different from the OC supported by other kernels.
Thanks.

I used a new patch and this one, modify only 2 kernel files!
I can go up to 806MHz, which is really the top frequency my phone can handle. And amazingly enough, the cpu spike isn't there What changes did you make?
Work like a charm, but lack insteractive mode in setcpu and when you put it in power mode it stay at max freq. Thanks for your work buddy.
hope you include this on your next ROM release.... more power to you sir!
Dook - is it the same updated OC code that Mik used in his latest 2 builds ?

Arrrrgh this does not contain any of the patches needed by Gingerbread to function at least remotely fine .
Tried this kernel with LOLv1.2(froyo2.2) ROM,,Doesnt even stand up to SIppolo's super optimised kernel..After flashing this rom,phone got a little slower but like u said no more cpu spikes !!! THnx for posting

so this actually worked? would flash and and test it on some games. and would post my feedback after. Thnx!

can anyone confirm this?
is it just for 2.2 or is 2.2.2 affected?
Can I flash this kernel into my AmberHome ROM (2.2)?
it has so small transitions in speed like from 600Mhz u cud scale upto 645Mhz..I like this
EDIT: yes u can check it out on any rom..It will work on any rom as it is packages like koush's style

[Q] CheckRom V6 & What kernel?

Guys what it the best kernel for checkrom V6?
I mean.. i want advices BUT why did you made such a choice?
For me it is Franco hands down. Tested v2, v6 and the latest 'test' one (this will become v10 tomorrow or the day after, judging by the users' comments), and all proved to be smooth, fast, stable and easy on the battery on my Note.
I would second Franco kernel also. Been using it since v6 had no problems with lag at all. Battery life with this combination seems good as well.
Now this is a good start
I have been in CF ROOT for XXLC1 but i dunno why i feel the stock kernel is a little bit lagged in menus!
Will try Franco Kernel
Thanks for your replys!

Franco 9.....pure awesomeness !! Best battery backup m getting by using it. Earlier tried Abyss 4.2 but got a high battery drain !
Go for Franco !!!
but doesn't changing the kernel change some supported features in the rom ? like ntfs support for instance ?

Check the changelogs of the kernel you are about to use it will give you all the salient features and changes that it has and can happen!

Yeah of course! I have it installed on my phone. just go to the inbuilt kitchen (update it to the latest version from google play store) and download the file given there under the themes section. Its version1.1 as of now. And install it in recovery !!
Cheers! Hit thanks if it helped!
I was using stock CF-Root and it was fine, but the battery drain was a bit higher vs V5 CheckROM. Installed Franco and its running great, 1.5% Per Hour idle.
was using checkrom v6 with Franco's test kernel. Seems like its draining battery more than stock. Gonna verify it over the nxt few days by using stock
Also on Franco test kernel.
Also on franco kernel v9, works like a charm. Good battery life but no as good as CheckROM v5 & franco v6
For me Franco kernel cause constant sods.
I keep trying a newer versions and still same issue. This problem doesn't occur for me on other kernels

Yeah for some of the users Franco gives sods or screen salad issue - pixelated screen while other kernels work fine for them! Thankfully works fine for me

[Q] How to download and flash a custom kernel?

Hi guys, first post, sorry about that
I wanna know how to download a custom kernel and install it, is it the same as downloading a custom rom and flashing it aswell?
is it to late to flash it now?
i am running Android 4.0 on NOVAHD ICS
thanks ! Jack
Same as rom, just wipe cache and flash in CWM.
Awesome any links to the download of the kernel?
Thanks, Jack
Pfffff, for CM9 there are as far as I know five different kernels and I'm on my phone right now so it's kinda difficult to give you all those links. I'm sorry, but it looks like you need to do the searching yourself.
However, I can still recommend you a kernel . I think, if you use Nova HD, you should use the latest Supernova Kernel from hei1125 as well. I think that would be a great combination. Although I hear that Spica1234's HP extreme kernel isn't bad either. You should take a look for yourself .
Thanks, ill get looking straight away!

Maxfu Hydra Nirvana problem

Hi! couple of weeks ago i flashed "Maxfu_HydraNirvana_n16' on my n7000, worked like a charm good battery life with 1600Mhz oc, but recently i realized that video player and video recording are not working, is there any fix for this?
It could be because of the OC'ing. Try another kernel.

No recommendation.. this is purely a test to check if OC is the problem of video crashes.. choose a stock kernel like Philz

Yes then its because of the over clocking. It happens with other overclocked kernels too. Another option is to use the same kernel and get the max CPU speed back to 1400. Not sure if its going to work though.
