Default [Request] AMOLED-Oriented Battery Kernel

I miss the ICS days of Matrix 20.0. I pulled 7 hours of on-screen use twice, and always at least 5 hours of on screen time in 10-28 hours overall. That was some amazing battery life.

I really wish someone would make a kernel or implement these features on a currently active kernel for us AMOLED i9020 Nexus users.

What features?

Under voting, 50 FPS, tweaked deadline scheduled for battery, on demmand with the current settings bedalus uses, 100 min setting, and adjustable (400/800) Live OC.

Some people may argue all of those features save little to no battery. I'd disagree on all except maybe Live OC. I know for a fact that my battery has been NOWHERE near the same as ICS since JB. I struggle to get 4 hours of screen use. I know get about 2.5-4.0. Coming from 5.5-7.3 hours of on screen use this is terrible! I know those 'small' features in combination with each other made a huge impact on battery.

If I had the resources to make my own kernels I would. But I don't have the resources (good computer or knowledge or time) to do so. Hopefully some amazing DEV will make a JB kernel dedicated to battery life on AMOLED screens for our Nexus. That would be great :P...

Nexus S. (GSM i9020a)
Paranoid Epsilon 1.2 (1.992 - 4.1.1)
Marmite Kernel (4.4.5 - Bedalus)
Smartassv2 (1000/200)
Deep Idle (Off - Deadline)
BLX (98 - Inverted Apps)
Black Exodus (Stock Voltage)
LG, Nexus 4

You may not get it. Most of the features you are asking are a strict no-no from the current Kernel devs of Nexus S. The only kernel that include a voltage mod today is Air Kernel, but you may need to do undervolting yourself. You can try reducing all voltages by 25 and check stability, my phone can take up to 75 voltage reduction.

Again there are no 50 FPS kernel for JB. You can modify ondemand settings & voltage settings using NSTools. Live OC isn't there in any JB kernel and will not be included by any one as it is unstable. Bedalus ondemand settings are below:
Sampling rate - 20000
Up Threshold - 95%
Sampling down factor - 1 step

All the best..

I know the DEVs of today won't do it, but that doesn't mean nobody might give it a shot or make a new kernel...Matrix 20.0 was 50 FPS on ICS so it's possible. I've UV at 50 on Air and it was fine. I already know the Bedalus settings.... My kernel is Marmite lmao.

I'm not asking for MK, r_data, or Bedalus to do this. I'm asking someone else. If I could I'd try to make an AMOLED battery kernel. I miss good JB battery.
