Custom ROM always comes with their own kernel with some tweaks to improve the performance, but most of them are fixed and not suitable to change the settings according to your need. Independent custom kernel is a small zip, normally below 10MB, it doesn't have ROM with it but it comes with more customizations such as processor overclocking, gpu overclockling, undervolting, fastcharge support etc. You can override your current kernel by flashing custom kernel in recovery, same process as flashing custom ROM, use Trickster Mod app in Google Play to change the settings of the custom kernel after flashing.

I am using WiFi model only and on PA ROM since first day I got it, it's my favorite ROM since the old Nexus 7, but it is not out yet for LTE version.

Edit: You can install custom kernel on stock ROM too if it is based on aosp code, so custom kernel is not for custom ROM only.

There are many ROMs that provide more custom features compared to stock ROM, you need to try yourself to see what features you need. Regarding the battery life, you can try to install custom kernel which has more battery tweaking features than stock kernel.

Any compatibility issue when flashing / coupling different ROM and kernel... Can we even run aosp ROM with custom kernel ?

Sorry for noon question

It seems that Google and ASUS are ignoring the multitouch issues across worldwide!!

My 2cents:
if you're not confidence in Asus/Google's product and solution, you can go for other devices/platform.

No point keep looking at the internet trying to nitpick the flaws..

oh thks bro. lazy to browse, ask u...i know AOKP, but what so good about AOSP? any feature that AOSP has and AOKP dont have? hmm.gif

AOKP is based on AOSP... or to be frank, each and every custom ROM out there are branch out of AOSP.

So, AOKP has more feature than AOSP.

Any generic type can work . You can get from garage sales or eBay. However if you need to connect to USB hard drive those cheaper ones might not work. I have 3 n only one could connect without additional power input to my 1TB harddrive. I bought this from ebay while the other 2 from garage sales n lowyat shop. Sorry bought these few years ago n forgot those sellers.

L to R : Purchased from E Bay, Low Yat shop, Garage Sales lowyat

Mine is kinda same as yours though i think worse. At least yours confirm will charge well if you turn it off. Mine charges super slow till the discharge rate is almost always higher than charging rate, except if i don't touch at all..then maybe can charge like...10-15% overnight. Even shutting it down doesn't help. Once I even had trouble connecting the charger, it kept disconnecting then reconnecting constantly. My pc usb does recognize it though, only 1 port has problems.

Besides all this, my gyroscope isn't working, and my screen quite often gets unresponsive, I actually have to physically hit it to get the screen to register my touch.

Waiting for my wireless charger to see if it makes any difference, but even if it does, I'll probably still send it for warranty..

I'm impressed that you could live with all those issues...

touch the Sphere button to change to english keyboard which is Google Keyboard.

I think Google decided to separate the different languages.
