any recomendations for a fast kernal for gaming please ? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

done alot of reading have my phone all setup now i just want to make sure ive got the best and fastest kernal for gaming really, im currently using appolo that came with neat rom as it has the app to overclock, before that i had siyah, cant decide wich one faster for gaming though
was hoping someone would have more experience
thx
ok so i was looking at the Kernel_Dorimanx-V8.43-[12-21]-[24-10]-JB-SGII-PWR-CORE but im a bit confused if its the rite one for my rom, im using neat rom and jb 4.1.2, is that the rite one or not ?

I using NeatROM Full version i've already try DORIMANX kernel and it dont work for NEATROM so i suggest you to use apollo kernel the one that have in the ROM..:good:

ok cheers, from what i read apolo is one of the best anyways, i found a thread where he benchmarked kernals but its a bit dated now wich is a shame, it did beat dormi at the time

ok then...but for me apollo kernel is best in NeatROm...

Well only going by benchmarks. With alpolo 7.1 and neatrom I get 17158, tuntutu. I might try dori though may as well. I'll let you know how I get on. I'm new at this smart phone game. Only just realised now why people always say " posted with my gs2 on xda or something like that. Always thought it was annoying as hell coz I allwayz read it pool. But its there automaticly.

I think this kernel is the right kernel.
I also think it's the best for gaming cause u can overclock CPU and gpu.

What ROM you're using, and why?

I'm browsing though the forums and flicking through all the different types of ROM's.
I'm not exactly and expert on all this stuff, so I was just wondering what ROM's you guys use and why?
Thanks in Advance.

Wow. This post is silly.
Saying not to try custom roms, then posts a link to a post that says you must try custom roms. :/
Anyways, I'm using CM9 Nightlies, all going well.
I'm a newbie ROOTer and I suggest you try it out, the benefits wayy outway the risks and trying something new is always fun.

I've tried most of the aokp/cm9 roms now as well as some aosp and stock roms. I'm currently running omega 3.0 aokp and a secondary omega v13.....I've found theses to be the most reliable..smooth and bug free.besides what people will say are the "best" roms..,, you need to flash and try some out., as they all vary to peoples personal preference.just make sure to follow install guides to the tee...

Are CM10 and Siyah kernel great for battery life?

I need a good kernel and ROM to have the battery last as long as possible
Now I have Siyah kernel and CM10 ROM.
Is it a good combination?
Or should I change ROM or kernel to Dorimanx for example?
Use latest cm10 with stock cm kernel......I must say awesome combination for better battery life

Siyah is Good, latest version, Dorimanx is also very good too. the option is yours to decide which one to use.
If you don't like one, just flash another one. It takes less than 5mins to flash a kernel

You're going to have to try for yourself. I personally am using siyah, but you might have better luck with another one. Don't forget, you can use different settings in ex tweaks to get even better battery life
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
With every kernel and android, just think about how you use the phone for saving battery. Like turn off wifi/data/sync whatever you are not using, to gain a little more battery. There is a lot of tweaks with every kernel and you will find them, searching the forums for the specific kernel.
GL tweaking
Hi! there a lot of people who suggested that kind of combo, but we can never really tell if it's real until we try it ourselves.
Try some tweaks maybe you'll someday find the right "combo" that suits you. The thing here is that everyone has a different "type of usage".. you may have read a post "omg! I get the best battery life for this xxxx kernel/rom/whatever tweaks"... who knows? he/she could've just said that cause his/her phone had been on standby mode all along xD

How to make wifi better

Hey
This last weekend I rooted and installed different roms to try. Most of them still have poor wifi performance, just like stock.
Is there a way to make wifi better? Maybe flashing a new kernel, a new modem or something?
Thanks.
Modems/Radios are meant for Service network provider thingies, like your signal. Whereas, Kernels are for more "internal" things, they affect battery life and WIFI.
so i suggest you flash a custom kernel that best suits you
I hope this helps!
Thanks!
I was thinking of trying siyah kernel. Is it the best one for Wi-Fi performance or is there another one better?

If you're on ICS, Siyah and Franco both worked well for me, if you're on JB, Siyah alpha/beta builds are the only option until the i9300 sources are released.

I flashed siyah 1.5.3 with CM10 teamasek rom but wifi still doesnt work. I dont options for wifi inside Stweaks.
I will keep trying with other roms.
What I want is the best combo for the best wifi performance. Best combo rom - kernel - whatever. I really need to improve my wifi performance at home.

[Q] Choosing the right ROM/Kernel 4 performance

Hey every1
so I wanted to fix a SGS3 of a friend of mine who isn't so much into modding. His phone lags like hell, keyboard and calls, just everything. I'm personally on a GNEX and couldnt stay one minute with a phone in this condition.
Well i thought about Supercharge his phone, maybe also changing the Kernel before, but leave the rest stock... but maybe it wont be enough and I'll have to flash him a ROM.
Now I ain't got a SGS3 to flash me trough all kind of ROMs in order to see for myself what works and what not.
So what I'm asking for are some recommendations. The ROMs for SGS3 are all different then then these on GNEX...
There are many and i want to reduce my options to lets say 3-4 ROMs and some kernels...
Anyone?
Thanks

Well.... i dont search for the best ROM since its very individual. I search for one that is near to stock and stable. My friend won't need any customization...
Then try what's available. Read the different rom descriptions.

too much Im just asking for some names dude, I will read them then... just to cut down the options available, so less work...
On my personal opinion, I'll suggest CheckROM.
I've used it as a daily all round rom juiced with latest siyah kernel.
No lags and no un necessary batterydrain.
Sorry for my bad english, as this is my first post to englis only forum in ages

Some moderators have been shutting these kinds of threads down do to the fact that you are asking for someone to rate ones work over another, but I will chime in before that happens.
I am not going to rate one over the other though, as all phones run differently as you are finding out.
2 roms that MY phone had no problem running......Padawan and Black Jelly.
These 2 are close to stock with bloatware removed. Remember this is your dads phone. There are plenty of other roms I like, but require more maintainence. How often are you going to want to fiddle with dads phone.
Not much has been happening on these threads. You will not see many recent issues. That is how stable they are. I will recommend you read and in Padawan, I will refer you back to p. 355 to about p. 380. This was just after update and many issues were solved at that time. My phone never ran better.
If you get lag, read again, you werent paying attention.
Good luck.

If you follow development rom threads you can answer your own question. That is what is expected of people to do rather than create threads like this. That being said I don't really know what you are hearing about 4.4.2 roms but my wife has been running a 4.4.2 rom for well over a week without any reboot. After installing uber,a screen jitter patch, and the camera patch everything seems to work fine. Granted she really doesn't use bluetooth much but when she does it seems to work and there is an echo when using speaker phone on the other end. So really only reason not to go to 4.4.2 would be the speaker phone issue which I believe is present on any rom above 4.2. There is no way I could live on 4.1 or below personally.
Anyway to answer your question read the threads in the development section of this forum and educate yourself. Maybe even go as far as to flash a few roms and try them out and decide which rom is right for you.
Battery on Kit Kat seems to have a bit of a shorter life span also.
What you were stating Butcher, may be the reasons he is asking for stable. Patch here, kernal there, 4.4 has been very stable. But he is putting it on dads phone. If I were flashing dads phone, I would want something I am not having to tweak so much, especially if dad cant tweak himself.
Would you want to change the brakes on dads car every other day. Some roms are like a medication. The phone seems to build up tolerances, then need to make an adjustment.
But yes, read.

Yes thank you.
I would usually just flash away any rom ghat sounds promising to me. And yes i would tweak as much needed to be exactly how i wanted. From overclocking to to voltages, to removing navbar to what ever is needed.
But like you said this is for my father and i would want to have it be the most stable ao he wont have to deal with reeboots and and weird screen fails.
And i have been reading and uber has been mentioner a lot. Some say good some say its bad.
Kinda have been seeing a mixed opinion about it. Thats why i have been asking for what somebody consideres a stable rom.
Also i dont have the opportunity to mess with his phone when ever i want.
He is on gingerbread and god is that slow.
Thank you both i will see the roms that were mentioned here, and read for others.

If you went to the Samsung website, you can get an official upgrade there or even calling the carrier and have the upgrade it. JB is the official upgrade. If something goes wrong there, then at least they are resposible if something goes wrong.
