Alright I got A newer evo with full root nand unlocked s-off I was using fresh and could not use any kernels as it killed the camera i have latest radios and everything full wipes I also could not send or deceive texts while roaming I switch to myn"s 2.2 and still no camera with custom kernels have not been to test roaming yet also i can not update profile I'm settings
I have hardware revision 4
Thread moved to Q&A.
Try a different ROM maybe? I have Myn RLS4 without any camera issues. Hope this helps.

HTC changed the camera in HW version 4, and, unless I've missed something recently, they haven't released the source code for the new kernel. No custom kernels have been able to get the drivers for the new camera, so you're stuck with the official kernel for now.
Try htc #15 that was just released. It should work with all versions now
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk
You need HTC 17 or 15 if you have the newer camera hardware. If your not running a 3.70 rom than you should use #17. If you updated to the latest radios than use #15. If you updated to the latest PRI 1.90 then you should be on a 3.70 based rom or you will have problems.
Are there any Kernels with UV/OC that work with the new Camera Hardware? Any Tweaks? Anything?

No. Toastcfh and Shinzul are working on getting the late-003/004 camera working as soon as they finish polishing up WiMax, which hopefully will be just another week or two. Then all you Sense-lovers can kang the CM source to get the driver, seeing as how HTC is retarded and breaking the law by not releasing their kernel source.

Hey guys, I have a Hardware version 0003, with the new camera, I have it rooted and have tried several custom ROMs and kernals. From what I understand from what I've been told the kernel is responsible for the hardware drivers and overclocking abilitys. I need some help finding a Kernel that supports overclocking and also supports my new camera drivers. I've found that the HTC kernels support the camera but none of them support overclocking!!!! I need some help please!!! Right now I'm running Azrael v2.41 ROM with the included HTC #10 kernel.
Another off topic question, when I try to wipe the Divek cache, nothing happens. Is this normal? When I wipe user data and regular cache, scripts come on my screen and gives me the process.....
if you have hardware 003 you shouldn't have to worry about camera drivers, you still have the older camera.
It's only if you have hardware 004 that you need to worry about your cam
Also, if you use clockworkmod there is a known issue with wiping cache, idk if it's related to dalvic cache but I get the same thing when I wipe it, no scripts. Try Amon Ra recovery for a working dalvic cache cleaner
What new camera? Is it better?

Wrong. I have an 003 with the new camera. My camera will not work with any of the developed kernels....only the 2.6.32.15 #17 kernel. Mine has a late Oct build date. I received it when my launch day EVO was broken by the sprint repair center.
OP, just wait for HTC to release the kernal so the developers can work their magic on it. This kernel is fast enough for everyday use as is.

Anyone that had both builds notice any difference on battery life?
There likely won't be any custom kernels that support the new camera until HTC releases the source code for the 3.30 update and they still haven't released the source for the 3.29 update so it might be a while

This is incorrect. The build date is printed on the inside of the battery cover, just above and to the left of the opening for the kick stand. It's printed in black and kind of hard to see. The date on the HBOOT menu, I believe, is when that version was finalized. My Hboot menu says 4/30/2010 while my battery cover says 6/22/2010
The new camera is not any better or worse from what I can tell. As far as I know HTC added another supplier for one reason or another.
Some 003 hardware phones come with the 3.29 software, others with the 3.30. It's the 3.30 series that doesn't play nice with the camera's when flashing custom kernels.
yes, in hboot it shows the build date....or what I am assuming is the build date (don't know what else it could be), mine is Oct 14 2010.
Guess I'll just have to wait fior HTC to release then....
I read somewhere that the 0004 hardware phones have a different camera in them that does not work with some roms. I am looking into rooting soon, possibly today if I can get it to work, if not I will wait for unrevoked's update, I am just wondering what roms work with the camera or at least have a fix.
I really don't need or use sense, but that was when I was on the hero and sense bogged down the phone greatly. I just want a fast performing rom that has themes available and tweaks available.
Thanks for your help!!!

It is not the ROM that causes the problem. You can use any Rom you want to but if you want the camera to work you can not use custom kernals. The only ones I know for sure that support the new camera are HYC #15 and #17
15 is actually the newer kernal released with the 3.70 OTA
This applies to later model 003 phones like mine also. It's a real bummer. I'd love to use one of the battery saving kernels, but my camera won't work with any of them. I wish someone would put the mods in the newest #15 kernel...
I say try different kernels and see what works for your Evo. Make sure u do a nand backup first. I personally have an 004 Evo and i have tried various roms and kernels and i havent had an issue yet (besides an occasional reboots) but my camera/camcorder works great....i have used ava v10, myn's 2.2 rsl4 and currently culkins....i have used ziggys, and net's various kernels with no issue either
The ROM's not the problem. I can run any ROM, as long as I replace the kernel with #15 or #17. So far none of the newer modified kernels will work with my camera.

About to flash CM7. Seen some mention of 'kernal' in various threads. What does it do? and do I need to update it?
Cheers.
same question
The Kernel controls things like battery drain and CPU levels for overclocking etc... its not a must do but recommended for best performance. there is probably not a "best" one but more like the best that suits you. If you are running CM7 i would recomend Vork Kernel's or ManU kernels
Richardtrip's kernels are also very good: overcklocking, manual voltage level, Two-way call recording.

Since I'm new to Desire and HTC- what is the difference between Sense and AOSP kernels?
(before you ask- I know what AOSP is)
Do Sense firmwares require some extra drivers/modules/settings in kernel?

Hi there!
Sense is HTC proprietary software built over the top of Android. This code is not open source and is what HTC use to set themselves apart from other manufacturers like Samsung etc. Sense is what they sell as their user experience.
AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project. Since Android is an open source operating system, Google publish all the code and necessary tools to develop Android. Companies like HTC get the code and then write Sense over the top. Devs in this community like Cyanogen take the AOSP code and build their ROMS from scratch.
When you see ROMS that are for Sense 2.1 on Gingerbread for example this means that someone has been able to port software running on other phone models like the Desire HD or Incredible etc to your phone model (Desire)
As for the kernels you will need to make sure that the kernel you run is supported on the device and that's about it. The Kernel has to have some key components or the phone won't work so the ROM you use just uses them.
Having said that, ROM developers usually optimise around one or two particular Kernels. They are usually included in the ROM or the Dev will tell you which one they recommend for certain purposes.
You do have to have apps in the system that can access settings if customising the performance beyond what the dev has already done is what you want to do.
Thanks for the answer but it's not exactly what I'd like to know
Thing is- what makes Sense kernel incompatible with AOSP firmware (and vice versa)
Sorry for not answering what you were looking for. I'll try again.
The Kernels for Sense would have specific code that enables features in the phone that HTC build. LED control, light sensor etc. I assume Sense is quite strict about what it will work on and what it won't.
The AOSP Kernels are built without knowing the exact hardware maps of the internal components and as such won't work with Sense because they simply don't know how due to HTC keeping a lid on all source work for Sense and the handset itself.
The best developers can figure most of it out (certainly I am not a dev, just a geek ) and teams like CyanogenMod have it mostly discovered and configurable.
Is that more helpful?
Isn't Sense a HTC's android framework "mod"? I mean does it "just" provide more/different functionality than AOSP?
AFAIK all kernels must be built knowing exact hardware map, otherwise some devices will not work or kernel will not boot. The only autodetect I'm aware of is display panel type and filesystems (I did mess with kernels @samdroid.net)
i have a question about kernels an such from what i understand is you don't need to update the kernel but its a good idea too do so. couple questions i have.
1. how do you know what kernel you have installed currently.
2. How do you flash or get a new one installed if you need or want it.
3. scene i am using core droid 6.3 gb2.3.3 what kernel would be the most compatible or effective?
I have had my inspire phone for 3 months an finally rooted it 3weeks ago sence then i have used the rom manager too play with different roms an make backups of the 2 i have found i like the most. After reading i have seen it stated too get the most out of these roms though you should install a different kernel.
To know your currently version, you have to go in parametres and then logiciel version and look at build. Sorry for my bad English.

You will find that many roms contain a kernel in the zip file, so it will often change when you flash a rom. If not, the developer may recommend one.
Radio is independent of rom flash, and unless you start getting connectivity problems there is normally no need to change it. Again, some developers will recommend a radio (and maybe a RIL if they know a particular combination works well with their rom.
NOTE: This PATCH is compatible ONLY with MY GB Kernel version 2.6.2 and beyond. Older Kernel versions are NOT Compatible!
Why bother with this patch? For me, the old Froyo WiFi Calling was very finicky and often times did not work due to router configurations. With Native GB Wifi Calling, I was able to have WiFi calling as long as I have a stable WiFi signal regardless of router configurations. Besides this is Native GB app, so it matches up nicely with GB ROMs, such as CM7, AOSP, GB MIUI, etc..
The Patch ==> Native GB WiFi Calling Patch <==
[ Installation Procedure ]
Before installation, make sure the following lines exist in the build.prop located @ /system folder (these lines should be there in all CM7 or AOSP derivatives)
rild.libpath=/system/lib/librilswitch.so
rilswitch.vendorlibpath=/system/lib/libhtc_ril.so
rilswitch.ganlibpath=/system/lib/libganril.so
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Install zip
3. Reboot, DONE!
[ Patch Details ]
This patch included the latest RIL (Radio Interface Layer) libraries from the Leaked GB ROM for Glacier.
Currently, all CM7 derivatives are using FROYO version of WiFi Calling module, since the real GB leak, a Native GB version is now available. I had the kineto_gan.c source code from HTC Saga a month ago, but we didn't have the matching libraries and GB WiFi Calling App until recently with the Leak.
The patch included Native Gingerbread ril libraries and Native Gingerbread WiFi Calling app. The patch will DELETE the FROYO WiFi calling App and REPLACE Froyo version of ril libraries to Native Gingerbread versions.

It DOES NOT work with any other kernel because they don't have kineto_gan.ko which is needed by GB wifi calling module.
kernel modules such as kinteo_gan.ko MUST follow the exact version of the kernel. So ONLY my GB kernel version 2.6.2 and beyond will work.
Got it. Looks like ill flash your kernel then

Well I still wouldn't suggest doing it as I did it by mistake, just saying that it did work. I suspect it would be unstable. I did not use it for very long so I can not comment on the stability at all. I ended up updating to your latest kernel as you suggested.

I am currently running kingdom stock sense 3.0 and my ? Is does anyone know of any good kernels to go with this ROM? This will be my first kernel I look into installing so I'm still gathering info before I actually do it so any info is greatly appreciated.
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
There aren't any kernels that will work with that rom aside from the stock one that comes with it.
To further explain as far as I understand it:
Since the sense 3.0 roms are based on leaked versions of gingerbread, we do not have access to the full source required to customize the kernel. Older Froyo kernels are not compatible, so we have to use the stock one that came with the leak. Be patient however, since we are supposed to be getting the official gingerbread OTA "soon" (current rumor is by the end of the month), and HTC has launched a developer's site, that should provide even more resources in the near future.
Awesome thanks for the info
