[Q] Kernel source? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So with the kernel source out.... what are we going to be able to get now?

Eugene will make something amazing, and that will likely lead to cyanogen.
Edit: and then I go ape $.hit

Hopefully a OC kernel that won't drain the sh*t out of our batteries...but eugene is developing the best kernel so far with Dead Horse

Bionix-V comes with Voodoo...which converts file system the Ext4, which is ok
Eugene's Dead Horse is based from ULK (Universal Lagfix Kernel) which is a pick your poison type of deal.
Pros:
Saves battery since its now based from official Froyo source
Uses ULK...which features Voodoo, OCLF, and JFS (JFS is the best on battery life)
Supports BLN( test23 doesnt but next one will)
Cons (So far):
Buggy...
MIGHT Wipe SDs....might not....shot in the dark
May have mounting problems (like me and my external sd)
So far i'm rolling with eugene all the way with this...i know he'll make it perfect soon

you can't...but you're welcome

Im trying this kernel again. It ran flawless on Loki 1.2 using Voodoo. Only downside, it ate battery like crazy. But now that Im on Loki 1.3, Im going to give it a shot with Overkill JFS. I remember I ran TWs ulf with overkill and it was real fast and alright on battery life. Now with the source, battery should be great.

You do know that both of these are from Team Whiskey, right?
The best kernel, as with all of the other what is the best questions, is the one that suites your needs the best. If you don't know what it does or what features you do or don't need stick with stock.

yep stock an the i/o are both as stable, i just use the i/o it seems a bit more snappy to me. i used the dow 1.3 and 1.4 and they where fast but crashed alot. =/ soo "Nero 3 - OCLF lagfix - super IO" is the way to goo -=D
im on the morfic castle thing but wheres the super i/o?
just a quick question, does any of the kernels come with cifs support? or do they include the cifs.ko module? I used the cifs manager to mount shares on windows hosts. thanks

Just so all of you know....any of you that are using this on another rom OTHER than eugenes rom are experiencing nothing more than a placebo effect. I know people have asked eugene if this would work on other roms and for whatever reason he's told people that he wasn't sure, even though he knew it wouldn't.
This kernel is simply a stock 2.2 vibrant kernel that calls an init script called 'mtpx' in the /bin directory. Its the same exact init script I had in Obsidian v5 called 'sombionixInit'. His flashable kernel doesn't install this file, its a file included in his rom, not the kernel. For that reason, if you are using this kernel on any other rom but his, you are running a stock kernel, nothing more, nothing less.

Bionix v 1.3! I have been using it moderately since 9:00 and it is now 12:10, only had time to charge it to 87 this morning. Now, 3 hours later; the battery is still at 76, so 11 percent with moderate usage. Amazing battery!! Would be on frost, but it didmt work very well on my phone for some reasons dn I love the black of bionix v

Both roms are fast, and have used both for at least 3 days(Trigger 2.6.2); both have excellent battery life.
I like Trigger's theme and look more.
BUT, Bionix 1.3 has 343mb Ram.
So, my vote goes to Bionix on that virtue.
Can't go wrong with either though
Trigger, with the OverStock Kernel = Heaven for me.
True...

To be fair, you can get 343mb on any rom you choose. It's the overstock kernel that allows the 343mb ram
With that said, choose which you like better

Right now I'm on Trigger. Bionix was my favorite, however I had some issues keeping connectivity to my company e-mail with it that I haven't had on Trigger. Otherwise, Bionix was fast and the battery life was amazing.
I have been using Bionix since Nero V and haven't encountered a problem yet. Yes Bionix. I tried Trigger once, i like them, but went back to Bionix.
does both ROMs support ffc?
Yes

I believe both do. I don't think what ROM you are using will affect the FFC if you have have SGSTool or something along the lines of that and other softwares you need on your phone for FFC.
Trigger, stable, fast, reliable. Add overStock to it and you will fall in love with your phone all over again, just like the day you got it! Plus, Birg makes sure the ROM gets only better and better with every release, just when you thought it doesn't get better than that!
Can't go wrong!

I've been running trigger for a few days now. It really is a top notch rom. Plus if you read thru the trigger thread you will see how much the devs help people out. Give it a shot you wont be sorry.

Ah, my bad. Didn't see that 2.6.4 has the option of Rom w/Overstock in 1 flash =)
This thread was kind of pointless. Of course people are going to choose what they currently run. If they didn't, why would they run it?
So, basically.... let's go ahead and sum up everyone's opinion on XDA. More people have downloaded and installed the Bionix series. Is this because it's been around longer? Possibly. Is it because Team Whiskey followers are persistent? Possibly.
I have personally tried both. I'm sticking to what I know and what I know are Team Whiskey's ROM's. Trigger is a machine though, I can assure you.
Happy choosing

You really need to try them both for looks and feel. What I like best may not look good to you. Flashing is a big part of the fun running a vibrant
Yea both a good!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
bionix... its super fast, and looks so slick
The key here is the overstock kernel, you can flash either bionix, trigger, axura rom then flash the lastest overstock kernel over it. Then start kicking ass!
I flash overstock on top of axura, got a quarant score of 1839 and a neocore of 64.9.
I was a steady user of Bionix for quite sometime but I must say, Trigger has made a believer out of me. As it's been stated, the Overstock kernel will crank your phone up to 11 no matter which rom you use, but I dunno, Trigger just seems to hit a sweet spot for me.
Try them both, it's insanely easy to switch roms these days. Haven't ran into a bootloop or anything in ages.

[Q] What is the best Voodoo Kernel to go with ED01

I have stock ED01 on my Fascinate. I want to get a Voodoo kernel back on the phone to negate the lag. Not sure which Kernel would be the best one to get because I am a n00b
I to want to know what voodoo kernel to use someone please answer
I'm pretty sure any of the froyo kernels would be fine. Personally, I'm using nemesis' kernel since it has the most customization and it works fine.

Cool I just flashed this rom. I like everything except the black everthing theme. Not a big fan but for now that stuff takes a back seat to working fast phone with good battery life.
So far this ROM is very fast. I am liking that. No showstoppers for me. No major bugs although I did have one lockup/reboot when I first opened the camera. Might need to pull the battery, because I haven't done that since before I flashed this ROM/Kernel.
Very nice overall.
I just flashed the new rom and I gotta say I love it....except for one thing. I can't seem to get any sound to work with the startup. I have the poweron.wav file in the right spot... i think... but still no sound. Can anyone confirm if the community rom allows startup sound?

[Q] Best Stable Vibrant ROM?

I just need a stable 2.2 ROM, preferably with a 1.4 GHz overclock.
Stable roms (that I've tried) - Bionix, Trigger, and Bi-Winning
Since you want to OC, you need a custom kernel (i think all those roms just come with Stock voodoo). Any OC that you will do will not create a stable environment for your Vibrant (everyones CPU is built differently so results will vary). Basically, OC and Stable do not go in the same sentence.

Bionix NextGen 1.3.2 with whatever overclock kernel is recommended.
Hands down.
I'm not currently using it for testing purposes (and because the theme sucks so hard, sorry TW, I love you but you gotta admit that ****'s ugly.)
Try SGS II clone V2. It's stable, and looks great. I'm running with an Overstock kernel.

Bali vs Glitch YOU choose

Which one would you guys recommend to me most?
I'm currently on Bali, have been for about 12 hours, and its given me a few hours extra on battery life, but i'm wondering, is Glitch even better? I don't like to flash things I don't need.
So you guys tell me.
This is to help me, AND others that wonder the same question...
Havent tried bali yet. Luuuurve glitch tho. Voodoo color is a plus and my battery life is much better, about 5 hrs more than stock redux. But as doon as bali gets voodoo color [which is soon] ill try it.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Well, I'd say glitch is for the more technically/tweaking due to it have voodoo color, up to 1.7ghz oc, insane work into UV and oc stability based on your chip quality.
But Bali might have slightly better vibrant specific support since it's from a mostly vibrant oriented dev. But Bali might be more generic in the features it has (this sentence is not meant to be read as a knock or rude in anyway).

I never got how to flash a kernal. 2 years into android and I'm still clueless-__-. Do you flash it like a normal rom? I have miui running. Do I just flash? Wipe?
Im fairly new to flashing kernels as well, but you DL it, put it on your internal SD and flash it like you would a rom. Thats all I did when I flashed Bali.
So far no real difference on Bali, my battery drain on cm7 is still terrible but I just flashed it today so Ill give it a couple more days
I always had crappy battery on Glitch, and I'm talking 8-10 hours completely unused. Bali is vibrant-specific and gives MUCH better battery life, 15 hours and still had 30% left.

for bali, you do it normal, and for glitch to be safe, theres a script you have to download, and first flash that, then the kernel.

IDK if there's a version for Froyo ROMS.
Glitch is for CM7, specifically, idk if it will even work for miui- you need to pay attention to the title, which i never read.
but it is for 2.3 roms as far as i know, and there MAY be one for froyo in the future if enough people contact the developer asking for it.
