I know this is a very stupid question...but I'm still kind confused. What would happen if you flashed a cm7 kernel on a gb leak? Or a leaked kernel on cm7? What is the difference between the two, besides being built from different sources. What does that actually mean?

I've stopped paying complete attention to the forum so whats the word on kernels? I'm running the new virtuous stock kernel. Has the source for this come out yet? Are ziggys kernels better then this? I get confused by the kernel number since some have newer looking number but are in fact older like kxk
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?
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"

Is this only a big deal for TW users or will the benefits help out with AOSP roms as well? I personally prefer AOSP roms (MIUI and CM9) so I'm really hoping that this recently released code will help those roms become more stable. Can someone briefly explain the significance of the source code being released and what it means for TW and AOSP roms? Thanks
You'll see some kernel tweaks/improvements and possibly better battery life. And we have the kernel source, not "source". "Source" would imply to me that we could build the whole ROM which we can't. Just FYI.
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
