Do all kernells work with all roms???
an does this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682419
work with the rom:RCMixHD
No,ASOP kernels are for ASOP roms like Oxygen,CM7,DeFrost (= non-Sense UI ROMs) and Sense kernels are for ROMs with Sense UI. RCMix is Sense ROM. No shure about that kernel,but it seems like krenel for non-Sense ROMs.
asop kernels work for roms like cm7, redux, ginervillian etc. senmse kernels work for sense roms like leedroid 2.2. rcsmixhd is a 2.3.3 gingersense rom which needs a gingersense kernel. so far, there is only the leaked gingersense kernel. thats it thats all. youll have 2 wait until the official kernel source code is released b4 they can creaate custom overclocked undervolted kernels
Sorry to interfear in Ts's topic, but i thought my question is somewhat realated.
Are the kernals included in the roms. or do you have to flash a apropriat kernal yourselve?
Same question goes for radio and i flashed a wifi N thingy my previous rom advised. do i have to undo those things before installing a new rom?
lnodder: custom ROMs include kernels already, but you always have the option of flashing a differenet kernel. Be careful to distinguish what kind of kernel you're flashing vis-a-vis what ROM you have (Sense, non-Sense, etc)
Radios by and large don't need to be flashed/reflashed if they're working fine. Flashing radios improperly is one of the biggest causes of bricked cellphones.
Okay thnx for the info.
But in case of an update from froyo to gingerbread. you do need to update the radio?
At least here the dev. states "Requirement:
Latest Radio 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08"

hi, i'm about to flash leedroid v 2 on my desire hd, but i was wondering what the kernels in his site for? do i really need to flash them? and how?
This is what a Kernel does:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_(computing)
Or, a short explanation: It's the interface between your Hard- and Software.
The faster and the more optimized it is, the faster, smoother and energy efficient your DHD runs.
If you're on Leedroids ROM you already have one of the best Kernels around.
In this case it only makes sense to flash another Kernel if you want to overclock your device. (And no, I won't describe overclocking, too. If you've clicked the link above, you're already on wikipedia to look that up, too ;-) ).
i think leedroids rom includes his latest kernel anyway, the flashable one is for people not using his roms
Every ROM comes with a kernel. Leedroid 2.0 came with a kernel. Then later Lee added some modifications to his kernel and a new kernel 2.0.1 was made available and so forth until 2.0.4. Since changes were somewhat minor he did not introduce a new ROM version. But this means different people may be using the same LeeDroid ROM each with different kernels and different experiences. For example the latest recommended kernel seems to be 2.0.3 as 2.0.4 has more battery drain.

Hi all. I have been looking around at the various ROMs and Have found with my DHD (out of lack of experience maybe with modding) that I can't get an overclock on Android 2.3.X ROMs. Any reason for this? I've tried a few kernels as well and some aren't compatible with the ROM so I'm not sure what to use if any.
Any knowledge out there?
The source code for gingerbread w/ sense kernels aren't released yet so there are no custom kernels thus no overclocking. The kernels used are stock ones.
Ah thanks. I wasn't sure if there was any support out there yet. I have been flashing a few roms, radios and kernels to see if anything fitted. Also why doesn't the new sense version agree with these custom ginger roms?
So I have got a question that maybe many others have yet to voice or address (maybe it's just me, and I am delusional). In any event, I am not new to rooting and flashing ROMS. I am also familiar--at least conceptually--with what the kernel is and what it does. For the purposes of this post however, I should mention that I have not ever flashed a custom kernel and am unsure as to why one would or why there is more than one floating around. I have been vacillating back on forth between stock and custom kernels....it seems like in order to flash this ROM you need this Kernel, or that ROM flash that Kernel. I want to learn and to know. I would really appreciate feedback on this.

Kernel's are installed or "flashed" in the same manner as a custom ROM, either through CWM or Odin. Kernel's just add an extra level of customization, most people use custom Kernel's for overclocking although they also have many other uses.
Kernals can also highly affect battery life and the speed of roms. The kernal has to match the kind of rom. Samsung kernals go with samsung/touchwiz based roms. Aosp kernals go with aosp based roms like cyanogenmod and aokp. There are a few jellybean kernals and those will work for the current jellybean aosp based roms. Samsung will eventually release their own jellybean update and when that happens expect to see jellybean samsung kernals made for roms based on samsung jellybean.
Hello!
It's been quite awhile since I've been on here and got sick of Sony's ICS builds and how awful they are. So last night I unlocked my LT18a's bootloader and and flashed back to 4.1.A.0.562 firmware and rooted my device, I'm running DooMLords ICS Kernel as well.
So now I should be completely ready to flash ROM's, but I would like verify some things first. Since I'm on ICS, can I only installed ROM's based on ICS? Like CM9 etc..
I'm not sure how it works on the Arc S compared to other devices I have used in the past (Atrix, Nexus S etc..)
To the best of my knowledge, as long as your on an ICS kernel, you can flash ICS based roms. CM9 has its own kernel I'm pretty sure you have to use.
Each Rom should indicate what it is compatible with in the thread, but from my adventures, if your on an ICS kernel, you can only flash ICS roms.
as a general rule, keep like with like. GB kernels for GB roms and ICS kernels for ICS roms.
and of course CM kernels with CM roms.
Which Rom were you thinking of flashing?

Ah, sounds right. Thanks for all the information.
I just flashed the official CM9 with the Free Xperia kernel it and it seems to be working nicely.
Awesome, glad I could help mate

Okay I am probably going to sound rather stupid here but I am confused
I have installed many custom roms and many kernels. I am experiencing very very bad flickering with all but the latest stock kernel 1.29.401.11
I got it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692404
Most AOSP roms don't work with this kernel though, so I am going back to a cooked sense rom. I suppose they should work with 1.29.401.11.
However I am wondering now whether this actually is the latest kernel? I am seeing lot of people using 2.17.401.2 base?!
Is the latter the rom version using the 1.29.401.11 kernel?? ....Like I said, probably stupid but confused nonetheless :laugh:

I think the answer is no.
But you can try ARHD 9.4.0 it use the latest stock kernel building on 2.17 base.
Enjoy it

Thanks will try that one!
The screen flickering is a manufacturing issue that has been discussed heavily on XDA. (See here)
And as too9s said, ARHD is a great custom ROM based on 2.17. However, there are repacked kernels that work well with ARHD in case you wanted to flash a custom kernel.
The one by Faux is very popular: Link
I'm on arhd 9.4 with faux 07vf oc 1.55 uv -75 and it is amazing
Heres a link to all repacked kernels for arhd plenty to choose from
