Custom Kernel do the job.? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi guyz,
I have simple question here..Im using ST15I - unlocked - rooted- with custom kernel and ROM..I want to know that is it possible to flash a custom kernel and the stock rom..?
Is battery life depends on the kernel or the Rom.?
Because every custom ROM which I tested was good...but after few days it gave me problems like getting slow,Force close,freezing touch screen,stuck menu's,..etc.
So I wonder if there any chance to use a stock rom with a custom kernel for better performance..?
tnx

Sure, there is an option to use stock ROM and custom kernel, but they have to be compatible. I'm afraid any of CM kernels will work on stock ROM, but there's plenty of options - Lupus ICS, Extended stock kernel, MESA etc. And yes, battery life depends on kernel. Some of them are battery friendly, some of them not. But in general any custom kernel should work at least the same time as stock one (from my experience).

Bt battery life is also depended on ron, apps,3g, wifi and usage and a bunch of other things and yes depended on kernel too.
Yes stock rom and custom kernel can be done if they are compatible
Regards

Thank you gyz.....

[Q] fully working camera with custom kernal

why is it that i can't find any roms that have both a custom kernal and a fully working camera. Also, why do none of the new roms (since 2.3.3) have custom kernals?

custom kernel require a module to be compiled against the existing kernel and hence people are not able to provide custom kernel till we get source code from SE.

Stock ROMs vs Custom ROMs

So what are your opinions on stock vs custom ROMs?
I generally use custom roms. Are stock ROMs considered to be more stable and bug free?
I find Cyanogen usually has some bugs
Too soon to say, it will take a while untill we can get some stable roms.
I always was happy with cyanogen mod on the i9000, it was running smoother and in case of cm7 even had vorher battery life than stock roms. However the problem with cm always was that we never got a final build, cm7 is outdated already and cm9 is running on most cm'd devices and cm7 is at rc3 now. But i am pretty sure i will give cm a try again when it will be available for the g3.

is it true that custom roms begin to lagg after a while ? and more and more ram is used ? i only need boeffla sound mod , if i stay with stock sammy and boeffla kernel its as stable as pure stock?
After trying most of the ROMs here i can honestly say that in most cases sammy based roms are more stable and provide better battery life. Personally I don't like the touchwiz interface... it all depends if you're willing to sacrifice battery and go with something different like MIUI.

You could try perkas kernel, virtually stock, but latest has boeffla

[Q] Does a rom always icludes a specific kernel?

Hi all,
I want to know if a rom always contains a new kernel and can you change the kernel without changing to another costum rom?
I'm sure most ROMs come with a kernel that is tweaked, at least a little. That doesn't necessarily mean it will support oc/uc. and yes you can flash a kernel, if compatible with you ROM, at your leisure.
there is no spoon.....
Almost all roms come with a kernel of some type, but I feel like I remember seeing a rom a few months ago that didn't come with any kernel, so you had to flash one right after you flashed the rom before booting up (that's what the dev said if I'm remembering right, I didn't flash the rom).
And yes, you can flash any kernel at any time as long as it is compatible with your device/rom.
Well... if the ROM doesn't contain a kernel (that's kind of common) your previous kernel is retained.
This applies specifically to stock-based ROMs

[Q]Kernel

What does a kernel do when it comes to android phone performance? Is it wise to use stock kernel over custom ones (CM etc)?

The kernel is the most fundamental part of ur OS. It is mainly responsible for communicating with ur phone's hardware e.g processor, camera, etc. Stock kernels often tend to be stable however they do not offer overclocking abilities. Custom kernels on the other hand, allow for overclocking and have scripts to boost performance and even screen color. However, stock kernels often provide better battery life as compared to custom ones. Once u switch from a stock rom to a custom rom, u would most likely be using a custom kernel anyways. Hope that helps

Root and install custom rom or only new kernel

Hi,
previously I was on Sony Xperia devices but now I switched to Samsung S9 +.
The first thing that struck me is the bad battery life.
I've been reading on how to solve this and I will at least do a full reset and clean install to see if this helps.
But if this does not help I want to know what to try next.
CUSTOM ROM
For what I have found the custom roms do not use the second camera and that's something I do not want to lose.
So are there Custom roms that keep the original functionality from the camera?
CUSTOM KERNEL
If installing a custom rom isn't the way to go, what about a customer kernel?
So far I found two of them
ElementalX
Nemesis
And there is one html with an explanation about the speed and battery usage of the Exynos chip.
https://www.anandtech.com/show/12620/improving-the-exynos-9810-galaxy-s9-part-2
There is speculation whether Samsung will do something about battery usage as there seems to be a solution if Samsung does some ROM changes.
For now I think installing a custom kernel is my best option but what about OTA.
Once rooted I will not receive them anymore, can I just download the now ROM from Samsung and install it over the existing one without resetting the phone?
And once the ROM is installed reinstall the custom kernel?
I'm open to other suggestions to improve battery life.
