OK so I think something is keeping my phone awake and I think it's the kernel. I am using greenify so I'm not sure if that's something that'll do it because I get great battery life still but feel like something is keeping it awake after looking at my stats. Anything look out of order:

Well, you've got maps as one, that's a huge drainer.
From the looks of it, all that keeps your phone awake seems to be alarms.
You won't be able to narrow it down, unless you go to BBS Settings > advanced > Root Features
then after a while, check the "Alarms" tab under "Partial Wakelocks"

Yea I figured out that for whatever reason, it was still being active despite me having location services and all disabled. Converted it to a user app so I could greenify it and all has been well since (thank gosh!). Greenify has really saved me so many times in these types of situations.

Figured you all would appreciate this, the VRBMF1 OTA source has been posted by Samsung. Feel free to pass the word onto your favorite kernel devs.

Zues V5 fixed every little bit of my system UI lag that I even had with stock. Can't wait till V6.

Edit: Forgot to add I'm on bonestock 2.0

It's a great kernel, I liked it a lot before moving to the off site kernel. Pegasus and Zen combo was awesome for me. What settings are you using?

I was using smartass v2 and sio. Worked great but I ended up having more lag later. I have a lag with my notification shade pulldown if I have more that like 3 notifications on every single rom I tried. I have had less lag on the galaxy player 5.0 and it only had 412mb of ram.

    Hey guys,

    As many of us try out the various custom kernels for the various custom ROMs, we like to share our experiences, good or bad. However the problem with doing this is that we often clutter the ROM thread with unrelated kernel talk.

    So here is the perfect thread to share your experience.


    ALL THAT IS ASKED OF YOU IS THAT YOU LIST THE ROM AND KERNEL AND THEIR VERSIONS IN YOUR POST AND PLEASE DO NOT POST MIRRORS... JUST LINK TO DEVELOPERS THREAD IF LINKS ARE REQUESTED

    THANK YOU

    A git patch is worthless if you don't know what it's doing or how.
    Give a man a fish (or patch) and he eats (or codes) for a day, teach him how to fish (or how to fix code) and he can eat every day (or fix code on his own).

    Silver platter or valuable knowledge :) think on that.

    It would be easier if devs paid a little more attention to what they were doing instead of whining about git patches to copy from...

    Now... your more than welcome to provide input in this thread but keep your snide and immature, subtle or blatant attempts at insulting others to yourself

    I thought I made it clear there was to be no in depth discussion of Anthrax
    No discussion of the site it comes from, nor the developer there or his practices!
    If you have the Anthrax kernel then you have access to the site, please discuss it there
    I will tolerate no disrespect of any developer whether they are on this site or not
    Do not come onto XDA inciting any wars about this! What happens there, stays there!
    You want to discuss GPL with that developer, make an account there and discuss it with him
    Do not post here where only third parties can speak for him
    Thank you for your cooperation

    OK, let's not turn this into a huge....thing.
    The offending post has been edited by the poster but apparently not before being quoted.
    Let's end it here before it gets out of hand.
    We can all appreciate an intellectual debate which furthers development
    Stick to that. I do not want to see attacks just to prove you can.
