hydrakernals - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

has anyone else found that the hydra kernal site isnt there anymore? I have heard good things about it and wanted to try it but the site seams to have gone dead

Yea its been a dead site for a few months.
You might be able to still get a hydra kernel but it won't be as updated as what we have now.

SetCpu doesnt work anymore?

Hi, lately i have flashed the Defrost 0.6 rom and i overclocked the cpu to about 1.26ghz and it lasted for a couple of days.
Now after almost a week it doesnt anymore, so i flashed in the new kernel uvoc_audiomod and hoped for the best but it still doesnt work.
I have given it full permissions and also put in the .txt file on sd root - but still nothing.. what am i doing wrong?
excuse my bad english
Some of the static frequencies are broken in the kernel, I guess an update is coming soon. oc_v14 is a bit better from what I've read, haven't tried it yet.
Allright, i dotn know how - but somehow it works now..
Anyways, i look forward to the new kernel with Froyo ROMs

Rooted stock ROM + custom kernel?

I am rooting my 2.2 phone tonight and all I want to do is get rid of the damn 30fps cap, remove bloatware and keep everything else pretty much stock. Is it possible to load a custom kernel when using a stock rom or do I need to use a custom rom as well? I really like how sense integrates facebook into the contacts and don't want to lose that.
Also, any kernel/rom recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I have an 003 evo with a Novatek screen.

Most custom kernels work with any ROM, as long as they are for the same build! I put emphasis on this because if you use the wrong ROM/Kernel/Radio combo, you could brick your phone. So do so very carefully. Only use a kernel/radio if it is built for a specific build number.
So I need to find a kernel that is for the 3.26.651.6 build that I want to install? Do you know which kernel will work?
I've had good luck with netarchy's kernels(currently using v4.18). You can find them in the dev section. Using a stock ROM here.

i just flashed this today, so far i'm pretty impressed and liking it, especially since i'm also using Netarchy's HTC OTA froyo final build, both work perfect together so far, i've seen my fps so far bounce to 47fps, lol, sweet.
Thanks for the input guys. I used netarchy's kernel with the rooted 2.2 rom that got installed during the 2.2 root process. It works great and looks awesome, it's so smooth.
New To rooting and all
Hello Everyone;
I have a Droid X running stock ROM version 2.2 I have rooted to remove bloatware but have not done much else. I am interested in using setcpu but do not want to do so unless I can monitor CPU temp. I am wondering where to find the kernel for this, what is it called, and how do I install it step-by-step.
Sorry if this has already been answered but I have been searching for quite some time and can not seem to find the answer.
Thanks For the help.

took me a sec to realize this was a thread resurrection. i was like wtf??? heh <_< >_>

Few questions

First I want to thank all the devs and everyone who created these threads chalk full of info I needed to learn/how to root my g2, flashing roms, and etc. I went crazy and flashed every kernal rom I get my hands on lol. But now I'm bored flashing roms and kernals...need something new....so I decided to look into radios...(i know flashing radio can brick phone) but the idea of finding better signals or faster 4g speeds I couldn't help it...lol
Normally I don't like asking I perfer using the search engine to find what I need...only way I learn...but I cant find the answer to my question....
I recently flashed radio 12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17...everything working great no problem...but when I look into about phone...it tells me my baseband version is 12.28e.60.140fU_26.04.02.17_M2...umm where did that U and M2 come from? What does it mean? Nothing broken everything works fine...I still want to know why.....
I want to know how and the why's lol

Which kernel are you using and what params for that ( if any ?)...?

well, right now i have franko kernel installed , no params adjusted... not even sure where i would find the section in settings.. on a stock Verizion JB 4.2... im not even sure what would be the best rom to try
some one suggested MetalC.. but i cant find the Gapps that work with that one... so what i need is a solid ROM, Kernel and Gapps..
i was able to root via the Nexus Root Tool kit... that went well... but now i need to decide what Toro version rom i need to use.. and im keeping an eye out to see if the Franko kernel brings any joy for those random reboots and shutdowns... the guy i bought the Gnex from said he will do a full refund but i want to sort this out if possible... this little machine is too cool just to cash out on...
time to research on roms and stuff i guess..

For 4.4 go for cMetal / Playfulgod / dhacker's CM builds, for a 4.3 experience i dunno any one for toro and for kernel i think you can try out MpoKang as it can be flashed on 4.3 and up just have a look in the official thread and you'll be able to find zips plus use trickster app for the kernel control :good: !!
well, a bit of a followup friday swapped out the stock kernel for Franko kernel... and i have had it on for about most of the day yesterday and zero random shutdowns and no SOD.. this little thing is great and its a lot more easy to have this around then a remote for 2 google tv a roku and an xbmc box... i have not delved into new roms, the JB stock seems to be working fine im getting at least 10 hrs out of the battery... this is be best micro tablet i could ever find for 70 bucks... and the screeen is quite nice.. im sure i will be moding soon enough... but for now just a kernel change seems to have put an end to the sleep of death and random shutoffs..
