Hi All,
I recently upgraded my Atrix to custom ROM MIUI V 2.4.27 for the Atrix and I have noticed that it lists under the "About Phone" section Dual Core 1.5Ghz.
Now I'd like to know which Kernel you guys would recommend I load?
This build of MIUI is running ICS 4.0.4 and I already have SetCPU installed but without the right kernel it won't let me go past 1GHz.
Cheers.
I have sorted myself out with the right Kernel from Jokersax.
As the MIUI is based on CM9, I went to the following page:
[ sorry can't post outside links... google jokersax cm9 atrix instead
And installed the cm9 1.3 v4 kernel under the "cwm flashables" section.
I did this by saving the zip to the SD card.
Rebooting into recovery mode, and then clearing the CACHE and DALVIK CACHE followed by flashing it to the desired kernel.
If you're going to try this, also put in the 1.0 V4 kernel onto the SD card at the same time as when you're copying the 1.3 v4 Kernel just incase the 1.3 kernel isn't stable.
If it isn't, you can simply reboot into recovery mode and reflash to the 1.0 kernel.
This thread can now be closed but may be useful for others searching for similar information.
What clock speed are you running at?
Hi Alex,
I'm running at 1.3GHZ all day no problems. Been running 1.3 now for over 48hours and battery life is good and no glitches / random reboots.
Under SetCPU it is set to range between 216MHZ and 1300MHZ.
I'm now using Kernel "Atrix-CM9-Kernel-025b-ext4-1.45GHz" which I have been running for about 24hrs and it is stable after countless benchmarks I have thrown at it.
This is with the CM9 MIUI 2.4.27 build I'm running.
Love it.

Hello everyone!
I have a simple question that I would like to have answered. I'm adept at running custom ROMS on my GTAB, but I've never really messed with kernel stuff before.
There isn't exactly a 'topic' that deals with this, and pershoots website doesn't have that much detail either.
So I would like to know what kernel would be the best for me to run.
I've got VEGAn-Tab GingerEdition running and I just installed pershoots 2.6.32.39-cyanogenmod and it should be the ginger edition
Is this the right kernel or should I be running another?
Thanks
There are basically two kernels that are being actively supported on XDA, pershoot's and clemsyn's (clemsyn has several kernels out, but they're all just slight variations on the same kernel). If you want to overclock above 1.4GHz and/or adjust the voltage settings, then you should try clemsyn's. If not, then stick with pershoot's. It's what I use. It's what most of the devs on here include with their ROMs. For me, it seems to run better with less work. But try them both out for yourself and see what you like better. That's the only way you can really know if you're running the "right" kernel.
Also, pershoot just updated his kernel to 3.6.32.40, if you want the latest version.
Froyo use clemsyn. Gb use pershoot. Jmho...
Hey Thanks! This stuff gets quite confusing.
Another question here. I have installed Roms but how do we install a Kernel? Do we install prior to the Rom?
Thanks in advance
I've tested out every version.
1- froyo -->clemsy
2- ginger --> pershoot
3- flash kernel as you would with any other zip file. Do not use calk wipe all zip.
I have two things to ask about Wolfs v7 test:
1.-After the installation of the update (v7), in settings->about phone, the compilation version says "Wolf_Xperia_6.0.0s (as if it were a stock kernel version, the one i flashed was 6.0.0c)
2.-my phone has unlocked bootloader, so i flashed DoomKernel v05a with BM 1.3 and its respective wifi module, they work fine, however, as above, in about phone, it says its the FXP version.
here's a screenshot
http://yfrog.com/ocgbip
is this normal?? Something i must say, i was con FXP 030, but came back to wolfs because of stock camera and tethering. I wiped everything trough CWM and xRecovery respectively and did a fresh install. Everything works just fine (kernel speeds and governors, wifi, FB 2.0, keyboard, etc.)
Any guesses?
Anyone? i really have the doubt, but i can't post it on development cause i have less than 10 posts
I believe you downloaded the wrong file in the first place I have been to wolf's thread as well looking for a chance to test his updated rom but all i have found was V6 firmware
I think it's just a line in the build prop that WB hasn't changed yet. It shouldn't matter and as long as it works fine, it shouldn't be a problem. I'm sure it'll be fixed when full v7 is released.
its just the test version of next release.
v7 is yet to be released
There are lot of things that will be changed on final V7 release. This is just a test version.
Hi there, I just installed CM7 stable and faux123, but now PES2012 dont work
Im sure that faux123 will release a new version soon, but for my surprise there are 3 good unoficial kernel for atrx:
FAUX123: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1156040
CLEMSYN: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354502
KHOLK: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153003
So wich one on its stock clock version 1.0Ghz, are most compatible (runs every game that 2.2.2 did) and most durable (battery life)?

I know what you mean about games stop running on different kernels. I have one game in particular that is very picky and only seems to run on darkside lite 3.1.0 (you could also do the 3.1.2 update) but if I flash any kernel over the top besides the one it comes with such as fauxs the game stops working. So for me i just flash darkside lite with no kernel for picky games. and then have a nandroid backup of cm7 with the faux 1.45 overclock for other stuff I want to do. I literally switch between roms all the time! Depending what I have the need for for the week or day.
Faux123 is the best IMO for stability and battery life.
I'm on an international atrix and I use faux's 1.0 ghz cm7 ext-4 kernel
Hi guys I know that Siyah kernals allow overclocking of cpu and gpu on the SGS3 but what else does it do.
1)Does it improve battery life, sound of speakers and performance ? How?
2)Also can i install it on an original rom of ICS ?
3)Will i be able to update to Jelly bean through kies after installing this ?
4)After updating to jelly bean will i loose this kernal?
The sites i visited do not provide these information only that this kernal has these features and dual booting etc....
Thanks to everyone who replies or at least takes a look at it..
beware, i was using this kernel as a default
nearly the first thing ive flashed after installing a new rom
took me quite a while to learn that it prevented me from recording FullHD video, it was crashing the camera app everytime
i dropped it and switched to a stock kernel which works best for me right now.
There is a full thread dedicated to this kernel in original android development section!
With ics you can only install below 1.6 version if I'm correct (mentioned in the thread anyway). So no dual boot.
With STweaks app you can change every parameter and so save battery, overclock cpu and gpu, undervolt, enable some audio improvements and so on.
The best is to update to jb, and then install the latest version with dual boot.
If you lose the kernel after a Rom update you just flash again the kernel, 30 seconds work.
Hi,
All is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709686 (dev thread) and here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709860 (general thread)...
You need good reading, testing, etc... For battery it depends of your use and settings (in the 6th post of the dev thread there are some settings for battery life or for performance for example).
Firt of all read the first 6 posts in the dev thread...
Hey,
Im using OMEGA AOKP Milestone v1 4.1.2 ROM, ive installed the new Siyah s3 1.7 today, and downloaded the BatteryProfile.zip.
Problem is - phone keeps on rebooting almost every time I unlock it / enter an app or w/e.
I'll need your help in setting up the phone for more battery with siyah, or better solutions.
Thanks, sorry for newbism.
You're overclocking with too much undervolting. Try 1.6ghz w/ - 100 undervolting. As for GPU, start with 266and move up. Try the overclocking thread somewhere around this forum. Also set touch boost level to 1200.
Thanks
