On my case I stopped on KA15.
3G consume lot of battery so I use my phone on 2G and only connect 3G when I need it.
So I have good battery life with KA15 and RC2 kernel.
Tried KA16…KA17…KA17.2 but didn´t like it. KA17.2 for some reason I don´t know give me a lot of FC on several applications.
So waiting for better days…or betters releases.
Keep your nice work KA :)

I had it too (local itinerance too, between Simyo and Orange). Try raising a bit the min CPU freq (mine was 122.88, I would say that was upper with NE kernel). I've set it to 246.76 and solved the problem.

Edit. If you have the roaming mark and want to get rid of it, you can test this (it works for spain)

Thanks for your answer, but in french, its special, free telecom hasn't enough network cover (only 30% of french so Orange cover the other 70% and in 2G orange cover 100%) so the change network provider between orange and free is very often .. so the signal network falled down.

But i try setcpu or no frills cpu apps in order to ugrade freq cpu like you ask me .. thanks for help

It's a good rom, very fast and reliable if you don't install the supercharger. If you install it is going to be very slow and crashes all the time! Good job krabappel2548, keep working your room is awesome!

Thanks for the tutorial about how to remove the roaming mark, I really hate this! :)

    Thanks for the awesome rom. I would have no problem to donate a bit so you can continue developing this rom. But I need to be sure that you keep developing if I donate (not like: I donate, it is not enough and you still stop). So could you could give us more insight in how much you need? Maybe more people will donate then.

    EDIT: check this post first Explanation of everything :)

    I will stay developping my rom and keep my Neo, so I can stay and update my rom :D
