If anyone has ran any of these listed kernels could you tell me which ones are more better for battery life and which ones for performance.Im just wondering if these different kernels are any good.I would appreciate any information on any of these kernels if you have any experience with any of them. Thanks in advance... :)

I meant atrix not matrix.Is it true that tamacore and Sebastian kernels are better for battery life than bricked kernels?are only faux kernels built for performance,speed,etc?

Running kernels made for different devices can usually result in two ways: 1. your phone won't boot / 2. it will, but with a lot of errors.
Maybe a kernel for a HTC device close to the sensation will work eventually, but chances are next to 0.

Since Bricked and Faux has better core management and Sebastian's kernel is almost stock - then it is false. Faux's & Bricked kernel can be configured either to save battery or to perform fast.

I personally have only gotten great speed out of faux kernels.and great batt life out of bricked kernels.I have seen that tamacore kernels also provide good batt life as well.I was just wondering if anyone has ever ran any of the different kernels that I have listed and what kind of rests that they experienced with them.

The Vivid is HTC's codename for a different phone, IT IS NOT A KERNEL! Its like htc named our phone the "pyramid" so flashing a kernel for the vivid is not a good idea.
The kernel devs that are active on sensation are, Show-p1984 with Bricked kernel, faux with faux kernels, sebastian with his kernel and tamcore who does CM/AOSP kernels only so dont flash tamcore kernel unless you are running an AOSP/CM based ROM.

Sweep2wake means that your screen will turn on and off by sliding your finger across the capacative touch buttons at the bottom of the phone.
Unless you are a dev, you really dont need to know what the kernel cmdline is or does.
