I've been on CM9 for about two months and I love it, but I've been hearing good things about AOKP. I used it when it first came out and like it. CM9 was just better at the time. I was just wondering in your opinion what the best kernel to use with it.

Aren't vs threads not allowed? Every phone is different so you just have to try them for yourself.
Also to add, they use the same kernel for the most part

NEAK if your willing to take time to configure
Siyah if you want OC
If you don't wanna configure or oc stock

Thanks virus 1x for your 411. I've had n.e.a.k. kernel in my sd card for awhile and never used it. I'm going try it out now. Thanks again for the info.

First of all to start I haven't needed to flash the kernel cleaning script just wiping the caches worked fine for me. I have tried all three and by far the best is NEAK I usually don't have problems with it. I have undervolted and set it to 200 - 1000 MHz. I'll post a screenshot of my voltage control in a little. Also when you flash NEAK I personally recommend that you take the init.d files out of AOKP and make sure they're in you system/etc/init.d/. I didn't keep the first boot though.

In your title you said "best kernel", by the nature of it, it is a comparison.
If there is "best", there must be a "second best" and there have to be a "least best" or "worst best" or .............. unless there is only ONE and if there is only one, then there is NO NEED to ask which is "best"

This. the only thing that matters.
Only way is to try them and see how they work for your device. But NEAK, and/or SIYAH have been known to cause issues with Brightness and other things.
A comparison thread is a versus thread. Every phone reacts differently for kernels, just like it does for roms. We dont allow "what the best rom" threads either for this very purpose.
Also, as you can see by post #8, these kinds of threads dont last long because of crap like this.
Thread closed.

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.

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.

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.
I apologize for I know that similar threads have been created but the last one is fairly old. I have mostly been running AOKP for the last few weeks but I recently tried out serendipity- I'll say that I do prefer an AOSP style rom over a samsung rom. I do like customization but battery life is a priority to me. Can someone please give some input to what rom/kernal/governors are being used to maximize battery life?
There is no simple answer to this question. All Kernels and ROMs are good - please refer to Entropy's battery drain thread for common issues affecting battery drain.
Some kernels however offer UV ability e.g. Siyah which allows u more flexibility.
Having said this I saw about the same battery life on most of the ICS roms I tried.
I am currently evaluating custom GB roms to see if the battery life is better.

Task and ktoons AOKP is a favorite. Works well and is stable. As is lilchris' PhoneBricker. Both are ICS.
Have only used those two, used many kernels, but like the roms, it's up to the user to decide what is best for them.

That's not for the i777. Why don't you open the development section here on xda and read? There are tons of roms to choose from.

That looks like the international GS2, but as for CM... Never run it so I can't tell you if it's stable (from my experience) or not.
However, another good option would be ShoStock. Never run it, but it's got a great following so shoman must be doing something right!
As was said above me, by some random asshat who also has developed a ROM of his own, try taking a look at the development section and reading up a little on the roms available. Also, make a nandroid backup and then give a ROM a try. Give it a week, try other kernels if it seems a bit choppy. Then try another room if you aren't satisfied.
Once you find one you like, supercharge that mofo!

I'm rooted running stock ics and am looking for an oc kernel. I will consider switching to a custom yet stockish rom in order to accommodate the kernel suggestion.
Please.... I know you've seen this thread before, but I've comed over the development section, searched my ass off, and yes, even Google this.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
why are you so desperate for an OC kernel?
what doesn't your phone do with a stock kernel?
Because I want my new note to run as well as my old note, but I don't want to run the same rom.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
no 2 phones are the same; setup your new phone exactly the way your old one was, and see if it works exactly like the first one..
adding an kernel that you can OC is NO GUARANTEE that your phone will run "better"..overclocking often causes issues, and based on a lot of your posts that I have read, you probably should not bother with overclocking at this point..
What post have you read that suggest that I don't need an oc kernel at this point? Why are you so against me over clocking my phone. This is my 3rd note and my first 2 ran a hell of a lot better over clocked. I'm convinced that it makes a difference, so do you have a suggestion for me in regards to a specific kernel?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
I'm on stock ICS and I use this kernel. I have never OC'd it though. I only use it for BLN functionality.

If you have read so many of my posts why are you assuming anything? It sounds like you haven't read any of my posts. If you had you would know that I've never bricked a phone and both previous phones were sent back for charging port issues. It sounds like you've had a bad morning and are taking it out on me, please don't post unless you have a suggestion.

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

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.
