Greetings to Poco F1 users, a few days ago I began to be interested in kernel topics and began to study this topic in detail, but still I can not decide which kernel is better to install focusing on performance and autonomy? Tell me guys the best option.
So what exactly did you "study" in detail?
I am tried 3-4 kernel ı think twisted is good
Hi,
For me Sphinx is better at now.
Good luck.

Hey guys! I just wanted to know which is the best kernel for cm 13 for a balance between performance and battery life?
Note: I know all the devs give their best output, but i wanted to know which is the best for a balance between the two.
Thanks.
It is a subjective personal opinion. We can't say for sure.
Boeffla thoroughly tests his kernels before releasing to make sure they match his quality standards, its a great balanced kernel.
Black.Reactor has up streamed our Primitive kernel and gives a great battery.
Arsenic is a good stable balanced kernel.
Starkiller/Practical enables the user to control every aspect easily.
It all comes down to your personal usage.
Well said Josh! Couldn't of explained it better
Hey everyone!
First of all, I hope I'm writting in the right subforum.
Anyway, I've first rooted my OPX and flashed it with SultanROM about 2 or 3 months ago, with hopes of getting more out of my phone. Fast forward to the present time, and I've accumulated some knowledge on the whole ROM - Kernel tweaks and have changed now to CM13 ROM and flashed Arsenic Kernel after.
Then I found out Kernel Adiutor and saw that I can basically now tweak Arsenic even more, with many functions of the said app.
I just want to get a discussion going on what did you guys do to achieve better battery life ( i currently avg about 3-3,5h SOT), without sacrificing the performance too much, as all the options I have available in Kernel Adiutor are still a bit confusing to me.
Hi i just wonder what is best aosp rom in battery life i know the usage its different from person to person but i want ur experience guys with aosp roms

You should do compare and contrast on all available roms, that is stable enough to be used as daily driver. We all don't have the same usage in daily lives, we have different apps, which is depends on the user, different battery/performance mods, kernels, power management, etc. Just try LOS, Pixel Experience, etc. and record your power usage and compare it to all and you can determine yourself which one of them is good for you.
Btw. I'm using stock MIUI cuz I don't have problems installing custom kernel, battery mods, and other tweaks.
ROM has little to do in battery life (I agree, a few ROM specific features consume more battery like AOD). It's more Kernel related.
To my experience, stock miui ROM is always the best in terms of smoothness, fluidity and stability. If you feel the battery life is not that good, just grab a custom kernel and flash it through TWRP. You can also debloat useless System apps in order to have better RAM management.
I haven't tested everything, but stock kernel and stock ROM works the best for me. Most stable, best performance, smoothest, best battery(I get 10HRs of SOT). You should re-calibrate battery if you have been flashing many different ROMS.
Thanks guys i am on stock stable miui with sphinx kernel i am happy with it but i want to to try stock aosp that why i ask
For custom rom, you can try crdroid. For me so far thisbrom with default kernel has great battery backup. Manage to get 8h ++ sot starting from 90% battery. I will test more with next battery cycle. Normal usage social media, youtube and so far not try with pubg yet
So I just unlocked the bootloader of my one-week-old Poco F1, flashed LineageOS 16, and everything has been smooth sailing so far. Now, I want to flash a custom kernel. What can you recommend for a good balance of battery life and performance? I'm not really keen on tweaking parameters so I want a flash-and-forget-it solution. Thanks in advance.
Sphinx works best for miui and lineage.

Canting kernel. At first I was flashing a different kernel daily. I found Canting and have been on it for nearly a week. Super stable. Not 1 random reboot or freeze and it also has vibration control, sound control, display control, Klaspe and just about everything else

Sphinx Kernel is a good all-rounder, if you want a 'leaner' kernel go for Simple Kernel. As for performance, I've heard quite some praise from Malakas Kernel but I can't guarantee anything. An honorable mention would be Canting Kernel.
bump
Arter97 kernel is good for balanced performance and battery life and its very smooth

Yes. 3x each test averaged with unthermal to rule out throttling.

Awesome! What do you personally recommend for the best balance of battery life and performance without tweaking? How about pure battery life?

I use lineage stock and have been getting ~8 hours SOT with light usage, over 48 hours between charge. The gains/losses in performance and battery life between kernels were negligible for me in real world usage and sticking with stock is just one less thing for me to worry about when updating.

Yep, might as well stick with stock I guess. The development done into these kernels is very active that some even update every day. I think it's too much of a hassle to me to flash a newer version daily.
I also like to believe that wiping cache frequently, which is a prerequisite in flashing, hurts battery life, because the phone doesn't get to compile it and as a result, keeps on running background processes to rebuild it every time you do so. What do you think?
Go for FK. 8 hours sot while playing PoGo non stop on 4g. Very good performance and non heating issues so far.
Just wanted to update this post based on my findings:
Franco: Awesome battery life, though the device essentially becomes gimped. I'm not a fan of underclocking.
Malakas: Best performance by far, and also pretty good battery life. A bit unstable, though.
Sphinx: A good balance between performance and battery life, though idle drain is a bit high. Will test a bit more.
Not willing to test arter's since it's SELinux Permissive.

I'm running Evolution-X with the Optimus Drunk Kernel. I have the NVT panel version of the Pocofone and my experience has been excellent. I also service a FTS panel version of the Pocofone, that had the freezing problem, and the Optimus Drunk Kernel really helped turn the phone from a freezing/frustrating nightmare and a similar experience to the NVT panel version. I recommend both the Evolution-X ROM and the kernel. Currently, the default kernel on the ROM is the DERP kernel, which is also good.
Nowadays I just stick with the stock kernel
I have finally decided to get rid of MIUI and try other better custom roms +- kernels out there. I want to know what roms/kernels will be the better option for 2-3 years old POCO F1? I mostly use it games and music only.
I have heard about crdroid as the lightest of all with better performance overall. Then there is ArrowOS, LineageOS among other better alternatives.
Please suggest me which one to go for, for my POCO is still a 'virgin' but wants to get a taste of better performance overall.
Thanks

Hey,
If you want take a look on my thread POCO F1 Ultimate Collection & Guides. I have awarded the most popular stable and always up to date ROMs.

From the start, I've used Lineage OS for multiple reasons,
It's the most stable, I've tried other OS like Havov, PI and Corvus, etc but found tiny bugs.
It's stock kernel was good but I've switched to NGK. I don't really play games so I keep battery mode, with ngk app you can switch to gaming mode. Another thing to mentioned is on stock LOS kernel i got these scores on Geekbench5
(SC-249, MC-898) but after switching to ngk with gaming mode I got (SC-504 MC-2000+) so, you can really the differece.
crDroid is excellent. Using it exclusively since the past 27 months. An occasional (minor) bug or two crops up in some build or the other but it gets squashed quickly.
