Root [International] Kernel choices

[lavellep]

Hi All,

Just wondering which kernels you're using on your SIII and what you think of them?

I'm running Omega ROM with the Phenomenal 2.0 which I'd heard lots of good things about. I've not been able to install the Extreme version as it keeps crashing my phone so had to go for the next one down, Medium. Battery life is not bad by any stretch of the imagination but it's not amazing - it's the same as I was getting on the stock kernel which is about 12 hours with heavy use. So, not bad. But not as mind blowing as I'd hoped.

Does anyone know which kernels do give truly incredible battery life and on what undervolt/underclock settings? I've tried navigating XDA - but you need a degree in swahili to understand anything over there, lol.

All the best

I used Siyah on my S2 and continue to use it on my S3. Never had a problem...

Yeah +1 for siyah

If I wasn't using siyah, I'd use ninphetamine.

Phenomenal goes against everything I want from a kernel

Hi su.

Just a quick quest: Does the camera work on siyaKernal?

I had to install ninphetamine in order to get the camera to work (using Latest VillainRom)

Thanks

Villain comes with ninphetamine...

But yes my camera works
