Root Best Kernel to run with Virtuous Rom?

I just installed the Virtuous 2.6 ROM and tried to install King BFS Kernel 4 but it put my phone in a reboot loop. What kernel should I use with this ROM?
 
That's kind of strange, I've tried the Hydra Kernels and they work flawlessly, currently running Kings #4 and it's just great, no reboots whatsoever, very stable and fast, the only time I encountered issues was while browsing the web, then again the setup was to run at 1190 Mhz, now slowed down to 1152 and is pretty much perfect so far......check and recheck your procedures, the first reboot can be looooooong.....
 
Oh.....and yes I'm running Virtuous 2.6, S-OFF, 92 HBoot, 2.15.00.07.28 now with the 2.6.32. 15-king-havs-Oc-Uv Kernel....
 
'Jdkoreclipse': As a matter of fact I was running your RC3 with the Hydra, very smooth and stable, I do like your work !
 
you can use any kernel that says it's compatible with sense roms, make sure you are flashing them correctly, I believe there is no need to wipe data, or dalvik cache (at least I never have, and have flashed basically ever kernel and have never had an issue). I'm currently using King Klicks BFS#4 kernel without a single glitch and GREAT battery life.
 
Can someone explain the primary differences between the cfs and bfs kernels for king? Is BFS for speed and CFS for battery life?
 
check his forum...it has some info there....if you want a more general overview, bfs performs better because it channels volts differently
 
What it says in my signature below works great for me
no force close not even once and runs smooth,stable and fast for me
great rom/kernal combo on my device with great battery life
sat worked 8 hrs made couple calls, bunch of texts, checking time alot and even youtube for few and at end of shift i was at 78percent
 
The Virtuous custom kernal was stable for me for a while, but I like overclocking, so I went to BFS 4. It's been absolutely flawless for me, and battery life is improved with a 'Screen off' profile set to powersave at around 380.
 
I used 2 bfs kernels the stock htc and adrynalynes custom kernel. Overall the custom kernel won me over with superior battery life with setcpu and great performance. I don't OC my phone :cool:

I'm actually trying out the custom kernel on uncommon sense ROM.
 
Yeah my phone runs 1.113 perfectly , 1.15 and it actually is really sluggish or just reboots. 1.19 instant lock up
 
I always wipe Dalvik cache before installing new kernel.

That's recommended on King Klick's page.

I'm liking the Interactive governor in the BFS #4 Kernel, it's snappy.

BFS and CFS are IO schedulers. They have absolutely nothing to do whatsoever with "channeling volts". Please stop spreading misinformation.
 
I'm using King's BFS #4. Did a Dalvik cache (under advanced) wipe before flashing as was recommended, and it works great for me with Virtuous 2.7. The only reason I flashed the custom kernel was that Angry Birds beta doesn't work with the stock kernel (look at the comments in the Market for a ton of 1-star reviews from folks who can't use it on their stock Incredibles and Evos), and my kids love that game.
 
Angry Birds is awesome! It did work on stock Virtuous kernal for me. I had to keep tapping the the screen while it was loading to get it to load up though. Im on Adrenalynes kernal now and I sometimes have to tap the screen still. My battery life is greatly improved though I am underclocking and using a screen off profile. I am using overclock widget instead of set cpu. I like that app so far. Anyone else use it over set cpu?
 
Virtuous 2.7 + King's BFS#4. So far no problems with it. I'm getting slightly better battery life than with the Virtous custom kernal, but nothing substantial.
