Missing/unrecognised kernel? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi All,
I had a few issues when upgrading from Coredroid 6.1 to 6.8 on my DHD.
Something went wrong and I was left with the phone booting to the HTC screen but managed to get everything restored, following which I upgraded to Coredroid 6.7.
I have attached screenshots of the before and after software information screen from which you will see that after the upgrade it is no longer recognising the kernel.
Can anyone give me any guidance.
Thanking you in advance

Apparently this is normal
The kernel is MDJs kernel which is not recognised by the system software info display.
Latest Coredroid comes with leedroid kernel which does display correctly.

Virtuous 0.9.5 / Android 2.2

I installed this yesterday and after testing a few things, i'm pretty sure, that part of it is based on a htc 2.2 rom and is older then virtuos 0.9.
i noticed the flashlight application is called "blitzlicht" again if you set the language to german. that was corrected in 1.72 / 2.2.1 to "taschenlampe".
other problems:
-if i close an application, it sometimes takes forever to get the symbols and widgets on my desktop, much longer then on 0.9.
-APN settings for swisscom are missing and have to be entered manually
well as this is your first post, i welcome you to the forums and i hope you continue to post on here. but to answer your question, yes the version of android on the newest virtuous is not 2.2.1, but rmk insists that this is the newest version of the htc sense that was released. he said in lateer builds that it will be updated back to 2.2.1. all of the problems you mentioned are getting worked on, because everryone is having the same issues as you. just sit back, because rmk always has updates and patches coming out for fixes. dont worry!
hi patrick
i noticed you're having the home screen problems as well.
i still think it's based on an older version even if it does have some new fixes.
htc seems to have some problems with their branches of the dev. tree.
i'm back to 0.9 for the moment, as it works better for me.

[Q] Camera resolution/ color depth problem - COREDROID

Hi @all,
i tried to find a solution for my problem, but i still couldn't find one.
My Desire HD:
ROM: CoreDroid HD GB 2.3.3 V5.0 & FROYO V3.3
Android Version: 2.3.3
Sense Version: 2.1
Baseband: 12.28e.60.140fP_26.04.04.17_M2
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.10-g1418c33
Software Number: CoreDroid Desire HD V5.0
My Problem:
I flashed my original ROM with the CoreDroid HD GB 2.3.3 V5.0. Everything works fine, except the camera. If I try to make a picture, it seems, that the color depth is like 8bit. -> See attached picture.
Flashing another ROM like RCMixHD_v5.6_ORG -> same problem.
Is there still existing a thread for this Problem or does some knows what i can do?
Greetz Andy
That looks awesome
A question: Does the live view of the camera show the same picture? Or is it correct and only changes when saving?
Anyway I would recommend a full wipe & reflash of the ROM. If that doesn't fix the problem, there might be a serious problem.
The picture looks also on live view so bad.
I tried different ROMs and for wipe datas i allways used the Full_wipe_1.3.zip
I don't think that it's a hardware problem, because with the original ROM it allwaxs worked fine before i flashed.
I did following things:
- had original ROM
- downgraded from Baseband 1.75.x to 1.32.x (followed Forum Thread HOWTO...)
- Radio S-OFF and ENG S-OFF
- Flashed new ROM CoreDroid
- Radio Update to 12.28e.60.140fP_26.04.04.17_M2
I hope this helps....
Thanks
Did you already try other ROMs? It might fix the problem, if you do a full wipe and flash a different ROM, if it is ROM specific.
Have you already tried to go back to stock ROM and checked whether the problem persists?
Yeah, i tried the RCMix ROM and the Revolution HD ROM.
I didn't try stock rom yet. Didn't still found the thread with stock ROMs, so, don't know where to download from.
Does someone knows the title of the stock ROMs Thread?
Its definetely a ROM issue . So my suggestion to you is :
- Either the issue come from not properly functioning ROM or not properly functioning KERNEL . By re-flashing them , I guess you would managed to fix the problem .
- If you have made a BACKUP before flashing your new ROM , you should just restore your previous ROM and maybe the issue would disappear .
Ok, so i'll make a Kernel Update and try another ROM or Stock ROM (tomorrow) and then post you my results.
I hope that works
I die a kernel update, Radio Update, flashed stock rom 1.32 but this didn't fix the Problem.
Any other ideas that can be a solution für my Problem?
Hi,
I have the exact same problem with my DHD. Was a solution ever found?
For me, 'till today, sadly not
I think the camera sensor is busted. If you already flash lots of different roms and still not fixing it, best probable guess would be the hardware itself.

[Q] Desire HD LeeDrOiD HD V3.0.1 GB ROM

I have just flashed my DHD with LeeDrOiD HD V3.0.1 GB. when I boot the phone I get a alien noise and some leedroid code before the sense ui appears is this normal?
Thanks for your help.
dont you mean R2D2 that is normal for lees roms
hello,
Not sure is it? The other ROMS I have used have just booted into the sense UI, this one shows a small amount of code and plays the sound before going to the sense UI...just checking this is correct for this ROM.
its a splash screen, only a video, its suppose to look like a bios boot screen then goes into a android man also done it text - the noise is star wars R2D2
ahhh...that's right. Thanks for that. Only just got into this flash ROM thing, and making sure I have done it correctly. Thaks for your help.
yea its normal, as Lee included R2D2 in his reame/FAQ
thank you for that.
Another question ...I notice that the kernel version under software information says unavailbale.
Is this right?
Thanks again...
As a note, 3.0.2 is out now so you can flash that and the reason the kernel wont show is from memory the earlier Leedroid rom used MDJ kernel that didn't show up in info. Flash the new 3.0.2 kernel with this and you will see the information show. Not to mention it is a lot newer and further optimized!

[Q] Stock Kernel for HD on Vodafone

Hello. I flashed my HD with Leedroid HD V3, and also used LeeDrOiD GB V3.0.3 - 2.6.35.13 kernel. This was a big improvement on the stock ROM.
I now have a warranty issue with the active buttons and I need to send it to Voda AUS / HTC. I have a backup of my original ROM, which I have flashed back to and all works fine, but my kernel version now shows as unavailable.
Do I have to flash the kernel back to a stock one to avoid warranty issues? Do they look at this?
Trying to avoid them saying it's my fault the buttons stopped working, well just the lights.
Thanks for your help.
Dont know how to get the original kernel back, but I had Leedroid kernel, then when i flashed the new RCMix rom(Kingdom v0.1), the kernel no longer said Leedroid, it reverted to something that resembled stock (obviously it wont be the Vodafone stock, but it might look 'stock enough').
So you could try doing full wipe & flashing that rom & then restoring your original rom & hope the kernel is changed.
there is probably an easier way
thanks for that.
How did you find the RCMix ROM?
I can't even remember what the original kernel said!
Any ideas?
No idea what the original kernel was, probably should have written it down somewhere!
The new RCMix was really good, but had a lot of bugs though. The next version should be awesome with all the bugs ironed out. It's the only one that's got full 3.0 sense, rather than just bits and pieces.
The live weather lockscreen was pretty cool!

is that what you wanted?
Yes that looks like the original kernel details,.
I tried flashing kingdom and then my original voda rom and the kernel stayed as per the stock kernel supplied by kingdom.
Thanks for all you help.

[Q] Problems with Virtuous Roms

Hello Guys,
Ive Got a Problem, thats why i'm here.
Ive got a Rooted HTC Desire Z (data under my Question)
and everytime I want to flash a Rom from VIrtous or with Virtous Basement
I get a Blackscreen at rebooting, other Roms are working (like CM9)
And because thats very weird I want to ask the Pro's
Data:
- Hboot-0.84.2000 (PC1011000)
- 4Ext Recovery System
Thanx Eddiegame
(and if theres a [Q] existing, it wouldnt help cauz my Cell is very crazy)
Edit: Actually, this is the Desire Z hboot...Have you tried flashing Sense ROM's or the ICS ROM they offer?
Jss i did flash nearly all Virtuous Roms, which are aviable
But none has been working... all Blackscreen.
Even Virtuous Sense 2.0.0?
I presume you have set up and have a grasp of how to use adb. If you haven't, look up a guide in our forum.
So, does adb recognize your device while it's trying to boot? (You can confirm this if you run "adb devices" ) If it does, what output are you getting when running "adb logcat"?
Sent from my DZ.
Jes i know how to use adb
and i tested with the Primadonna Rom
and it Said :
Code:
- waiting for device -
error: protocol fault (no status)
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
and the "error" is coming, when the blackscreen starts ...
hi, i am trying to flash the sense Android Revolution HD with HTC Sense 3.5 rom as posted by you on my G2 but it after installation it gets stuck at the htc boot screen, amazingly this happens with all sense 3.5 roms like CoreDroid v1.3, Virtuous Affinity etc. but roms like CM7 - PyroMod etc. are installed and run pretty ok(ok the andriod process keeps crashing while calling), could you put some light on the matter. i am new to this previously the g2 was running the mexdroid rom and i brought it online. i really want the phone to run HTC stock rom or similar coz i love the look and the feel of it. any guidance on the same would be greatly appreicated. cant post on the form coz i still dont have the rights to do so.'
TIA,

Dear mh09ad5578
Habe you tried the BlissSense ? Its the best one with 3.5 in my opinion the others did also not work for me so try this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1485689
Eddiegame
I suggest against 3.5 entirely, it's way too bloated to run smoothly on our phones.
There's plenty of Sense 4.0 development. The ROM's we have right now are blazing fast and pretty much everything works, except for camera. Won't take long till we have fully functional Sense 4.0 ROM's.
So my advice is to stick with Stock (Virtuous Sense 2.0.0), until Camera works in Sense 4.0. Also, flash the Unity kernel, I have v9 on mediafire (can't find v10 right now).
Eddiegame, in case you haven't tried that ROM then please do. It's stock with Virtuous kernel/tweaks.
But my Problem is that virtousroms aren't working right now.
At the moment im at Glite, waiting for a fully working Sense 4.0a
so i will wait c:

Might need to flash the dz hboot. The system partition needs to be larger for many sense roms
