Flashing Custom Kernels with Custom roms

[anotherfiz]

Sooo, i've had my Tbolt for about a week now. Rooted it on day one thanks to you fine folks.


I've been testing and testing and rom selecting for days now. Also tried stock and MR2 radio, seems like MR2 is better for signal strength and battery life, but that is strictly anecdotal at this point

So far the rom ive used the most (and enjoyed) was the perfect storm 1.5, but i felt it was lacking since it had no CPU clock adjustment tools (and minor little annoyances like no Alarm clock notification on the status bar). I ended up switching back to stock so i could try BAMF 1.8. because i was interested in trying to fool around with OC tools. Right now i have my phone running at 245min 1.28max with "interactive governer". Ive done some reading about them and it seems like I just have to test and see which is the best for "my use".

Though BAMF is cool, i've read the Imoseyon Sense kernel is the de-facto best battery life kernel out there from a CPU management perspective. Can i just drop the Imoseyon kernal over my BAMF and expect the tools to work?

I've understood so far that MR1 Kernels wont work with MR2/2.5 radio, which is why im back to MR1/Froyo.

As far as I know, yes.

I will say this though, I'm running the kernel that installs with BAMF 1.8 (and have for quite a while, with settings pretty much the same as yours), and I get great battery life with it. May want to give it a day or two to see how you like it...?

Admittedly, im still in a phase of rebooting, reflashing, extracting, installing applications / roms / themes.

So battery life is like 3-4 hours max for me due to all the intense applications. I try to gauge my settings based on how much i lose over 1 night sleeping. so far the biggest factor ive seen has been 3g vs 4g. Tried wifi last night with 4g turned on and lost somewhere in between 3g and 4g with no wifi.
