Codeworkx 3.0.25 Kernel Vs Siyah - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Was just basically wondering, as of now, which one seems to be the best?
Anyone tried both?

Siayh is an optimized version of Samsung source code. Codeworkxx version is built from scratch by xploidwild and the team.

What do you think would be better on AOKP?

whatever that comes with stock is better as of now , wait for a few weeks or month to get some stable custom kernels.

Not sure i agree, Stock kernel is terrible.

codeworkx kernel is really good

What Kernel do you prefer?

After trying a few, which kernel do you prefer and run as your normal kernel?
For me, I have to stick with Entropy's Daily Driver kernel. Its just rock solid for me and its nice to know that we have a dedicated kernel dev who is always looking to better his kernel and when there were some problems he went through his whole patch-a-day to try and pinpoint the issues and resolve them. My hats off to him.

Im with you. EDD is my fav.
they are both extremely solid. I slightly prefer Siyah only because I tend to get better battery life when combined with the "init.doh" scripts
+1 for Entropy... been rock in for weeks now with zero issues and great battery life. I am so excited to see what he has in store for us now that we have ics source.

Weren't all these threads nuked before?
Entropy always, but if I wanted something experimental I tried Siyah.

We dont do "POST THE BEST ROM" threads. This is a poll to see what people run.
I am using Entropy and it has been rock solid. No freezes or anything. For me with Siyah I would have multiple lockups throughout the day that I had to reboot to get past. Granted I was using Siyah on cm7 though as that may make a difference.

Siyah 2.6.7 is by far the best kernel for performance and battery life

i use Entropy's. I've had the best luck with it. However, I do like the Siyah recovery menus much better.
I always use siyah.

if you mean CWM rec menus, Entropy brought the latest one in recent DDs.

The recovery menus with the siyah kernal are much more compact. It's annoying have to scroll through all the -NO- options when trying to flash something. Don't have to go through all that when you have the siyah kernel.

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 cant quite tell cause it's a matter of how you set it.. but imo, siyah is the bomb

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.

cm10 overclocking kernel

I'm on the CM10 milestone release but I can only overclock to 1.5ghz. Is there a kernel compatible with the cm10 than can go higher? ktoonsez seems only usable with AOKP.

What makes you think that ktoon's kernel only works with AOKP?
CM is AOSP. AOKP is AOSP. You need a AOSP kernel.
Onward with your newfound info.
Why would u want to Overclock besides for benchmarking? It really serves no purpose

yup
I want a faster smoother phone. Plus I want to slightly under volt for better battery life.
Whick version should I use and ideas where to find the correct kernel? All of the ones I've to be so far are tied to full ROMs. I'm pretty happy with the CM10.
Using the search function would answer your question.

No. I have a i747 AT&T. Again I tried searching but all I could pull up was full ROMs not the kernel separate.

In his defense 4 and 7 are right next to each other on the keypad. It's POSSIBLE he meant to write i777. Doubtful though...

Siyah 4.1.5. and Neatrom lite works for me.
Speedmod latest GB kernel (I think it's k2-21) + checkrom v6. It's a GB though

Try this one, you'll get the best battery life anyone on here has ever had. I promise.
I use dorimanx kernel 7.11 + slimbean 2.8
In my case the battery lasts longer and it's stable and heavily customizable :good:

Seems all of them are the best. Gonna flash them all together.
The absolute best battery you can get is with Kernels that have MMC_CAP_ERASE enabled.Trust me. It might take you a while to find one but when you do, woah. Be sure to do a few data wipes after you've flashed the said kernel to get the most optimal battery life. I promise you it works, I did that and haven't needed to charge my phone for over a month now.

nice finding mate..
I would love to encourage Samsung to install this lovely kernel to all it's android line-up so we all can get benefit of life time battery life
Hi Guys,
I'm a new member so I cannot post in the Development Thread of the Super Nexus 2.0 ROM for the Galaxy S2 GT - I9100.
Galaxy S2's battery life is horrible as experienced by most people and I am no exception. So I was looking for a Good ROM with best battery life.
My search ended with Super Nexus 2.0 ROM. Its a very good and stable ROM. But its been almost a month since i installed the ROM but the battery life is almost the same as the Stock ROM. Tried some battery saver apps, but not satisfied. I would not like to change the ROM as its brilliant expect the battery life. So thinking of changing the kernel (Never done that before), so what do you guys think which Kernel is the best for Super Nexus 2.0 ROM and Battery Life.
Thanks.

ATT kernel source code released

http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...ng-with-the-long-lost-thunderbolt-ics-source/
Curious to see what changed so I'm downloading it now but man is it slow. Is everyone at xda downloading it now or something? Usually 100MB is quick on my connection.
Also keep in mind 1.26 may be older than 1.29 but the revision .10 is newer than .3 so this may have some benefit.
Update: International firmware just got source code released for .12. Let's see what happens tonight. This could be interesting. .12 I believe has the touchscreen fix in it!

It is primarily useful for kernel developers who mod the stock kernel.

Lots of different tweaks that developers work on, it all depends - saving battery life, better color reproduction, overclocking with possible better performance and...and....and...
