[Q] Is there any GB custom kernel on the way??

Hi.. Anyone who knows if there is any custom kernel in the making for the Gingerbread roms??
Especially for the CoreDroid HD GB 2.3.3 V5.1
And anyone who can tell me which radio functions the best on the CoreDroid??

I think mike, the maker of Android Revolution HD, had something on his thread regarding a custom kernel in the making. But I believe that will be for his rom ARHD 4.0.
Im also running coredroid v5.1 and im using the newest radio, 26.08.04.07_m3 and it seems to be pretty good. I think you should give it a shot, and you can always switch back if it does not work out.

We need the source files for the kernel from HTC before any custom kernels can be made. The source files will be released some time after the official gingerbread updates have been released.

Okej I will try it out & see how it works out..
But is there anyone who knowes where it comes from???
In the radio thread it say that it´s not fully tested and so on...
have U hade any problems with it??

Until HTC release their official Gingerbread OTA, i do not think there will be any custom'ed GB Kernels yet but now we just have a "prototype" one. As usual.. we have to wait. Im not sure about myself too.. would prefer to receive some comments too. =)

[Q] update my rom... which one?

need to stick a better rom than the one i am running on the phone at the moment as it is quite old now and hasnt been updated for ages. i am currently using one of the camera mods to enable my green lense camera to shoot high def.
i see the greenbread mod will allow me the chance to have high def video recording on a gingerbread rom and so my question is.
which 2.3 rom should i choose that works with the greenbread mod, that will give good battery life (minimum of 24 hours medium useage), that is fast, stable and if possible can be themed?
thanks in advance

Which ROM are you on at the moment?

You can take last CM7 nightlies, battery drain is solved and it's the fastest ROM.
If you want an official ROM, take CEE or Nordic.

rom on at the moment is the old leaked froyo 3.4.2.117.
Is cee or nordic 2.3? i thought they were 2.2.
thought about cm7 but i dont think greenbread mod works on there. correct me if i am wrong cos if i am then i will jump on the cm7 bandwagon gladly.

Sorry, sorry and sorry !
Yes, CEE and Nordic are 2.2 and yes, greenbread mod doesn't work yet on CM7...

Try this Rom >>

where can I find this? The cyanogenmod nightlies section is blank on their website?

Sometimes it wobbles under load (lots of people downloading) - wait a while and try again ... http://defy.tanguy.tk/jordan-nightly/ is the one I use and its pretty damn reliable overall....

thanks bud i will give it a go.
it amazes me the number of replies from people who dont actually read the op properly!
i may yet try cm7...
does anybody know if i can enable the camera mod for the green lens that allows 848x640 video? i am using that mod at the moment and it works perfect. in all honesty if i could enable this then i would more than likely go with cm7.
so if anyone knows let me know if not the rom above looks like the winner.

mb525 cm7.2 gb kernel

hi all
I wonder if the gingerbread kernel can work quietly on my defy mb525 green lens module BAYER. I currently have the CM 7.2 nightly with linux kernel 2.6.32.9 (stock froyo 2.2.2) and I'm wondering if this rom is actually compatible with gingerbread kernel, and then everything would work .
in my case, the greenbreadmod lead the camera to work without problems on the cyano?
thanks for your support

yea you can use gb kernel on defy...
defy can work perfectly on froyo and gb kernel but defy+ cannot work on froyo kernel!

Do you have green lense or BAYER module? I think you are confusing things. Green lense is SOC module and red lense is BAYER module.

I think so, but i read the log "Detected BAYER device" and 720p does not work. looking better on lamp i see that the lens is green.

sure it have problem with battery? i want to do this upgrade for improve the battery life, and to make the phone more responsive.
I read that greenbreadmod allows operation of the green lens camera on the gb kernel. by that I could also record video after this upgrade? it's compatible with the cyano?

up
I read the 3d started from chachoi : I liked the arpith.fbi's answer, but would like more information about what actually rom works on that kernel and if I can run it with 2nd-boot. I did a test with walter74's 109_DPP-4.5.3-11-kernel, but does not start on CyanogenMod 7.2 (and in fact I riflashed the cm7 kernel signed to return to normal). so there is a gingerbread kernel that works on CM 7.2? (If needed, I would be willing to change even though Rom for having these features.)

see i will try to explain in simple words..kernels in android is like BIOS in a computer..it can run only on one kernel at a time..if u r dual booting, u can use only one kernel..either froyo or GB..u cant run one ROM with froyo kernel and another ROM with GB kernel..
Walter's kernel is GB kernel while CM7.2 uses froyo..tats y it dint start..
remember 2nd-boot is like a virtual OS, it has same BIOS(it uses same kernel)..

got it
so if i want to exploit the kernel gb I'll have to switch to one of the defy+ roms for defy. What about the GGL Rom? seems to be a great rom for green lens defy

if you have bayer module than your lens is red. and it does not matter that you can see it green.

Quarx's CM7 Defy+ builds (http://quarx2k.ru/cm7-nightly-defy+/) work perfectly fine with the GB kernel and the battery life is actually better than with the Froyo kernel (at least for me).
You need to install the attached battery fix though since Quarx'x build include the battd for the Defy+. Credits go to Auris 1.6 vvt-i for posting this in the CM9 thread.
The best kernel seems to be 4.5.3-109, which can be downloaded from Walter's MS2Ginger thread.

nice thanks...if the greenbreadmod will work with the camera app of the defy+'s cm7.2?
EDIT: i have just installed the defy+ cm7 and 4.5.3-109-DPP11 walter74's kernel. soon i'll test also the battery. the camera still work, but how to change the telephone model in the telephone details? it will compromise the mb525 hardware on supported applications?

Red lens mb525
Cm7.2
Just switched to cm7.2 from pikachu edition. (figured I check it out) I'm guessing I have a froyo kernel. If I wanted better battery life and smoother gaming would the gb kernel be better to flash or just stay on froyo?
(not the right post but figured I ask it instead of creating a new thread)
V6 supercharger is it worth it.?

how to get the battey % I flashed the battery fix zip yet t shows only "?" icon in place of battery

so is there any rom with bg kernel for green lens (soc)??? if yes than i would like to get a link for it

[Q] ICS camera Drivers

Hey guys I just flashed a sense 4.0 ROM but the cam doesn't work I was wondering if I could use the drivers from the Stock ICS camera from the ROM that I was using (ICECREAM JIBWICH 2.0 ) because it has a woking camera ?

Well if you know how to pull the drivers from the stock rom and put them onto a custom rom go for it. But I have not had camera problems on either the CyanogenMod 9 beta 13, nor the EliteMod ICS rom I'm using now on my G2.

There is no stock ics rom for our phones. The camera that is working with some custom ics roms are patched/hacked and not yet 100% the only ones that work are all compilled from the same rom and will not work across a different base. If you have a sense rom that you like you need to have a hacked camera for that rom. If it were as easy as stealing a cm9 based camera mod and putting it in a sense rom it would be done by that rom developers by alapha.x
Until the drivers for ours or similar device is released we have to happy with what we get. And until then expect flaws

[Support] [FAQ] [BL7] working GB-based ROMs for green lens defys

Hi @ all.
I want to start a support thread for all those unlucky ones who flashed a BL7-sbf on their green-lensed defy.
NOT the Defy+ or red lens, because the green one is the one for real trouble.
I am aware that you can always install a CM10 by quarx, but I wanted to have a more smooth and stable solution.
You should verify, that you are on a BL7. If you don't know what that means, you should not be here, Do not use these rooting instruction unless you know, you are on BL7. If you're questionning here, what are advantages, or disadvantages, or how you can find out what BL you have, please leave NOW.
This thread is for those who know what's cookin'.
I cannot stress this enough - be sure. search the forums. Don't flood this with useless questions.
I'll try to keep the first posts updated regularly, so that there should be no reason to read the whole thread everytime.
Now let's get started:
1. As far as I know, Froyo is no longer an option.
So, your options start with GB ROMs plus the camera fix. Please comment if they work and how.
I am sure somebody already built such roms.
2. You can also use a 2ndboot-based CM7 build like ms2ginger.
I don't know how many of those exist.
3. What I need you for:
Please add your own rom, when you know it's working on BL7.
Please add the rom you're using, when you're on BL7 with working SOC cam.
Questions:
It would be really helpful to know if ANY GB ROM will work with the camera fix.
It would also be helpful to know, if we should use custom MB525 or MB526 builds as base rom.
Working Roms:
1. MS2Ginger
2. tbc.
3. tbc.
First try (all flashed via custom recovery):
1. I managed to get a working CM 7.2, from early may 2013 with GB Kernel. (cm72-20120506-NIGHTLY-Defy+.zip)
2. Rooted via Defy+ BL7 method (sig)
3. Sndinit 2.3 (you should use 2.0, because some said they had problems with the 2.3 version) i am writing this a week later, so I hope this is correct
5. camera did NOT work
What I did NOT get to work (yet):
1. update-CyanMobile-eXperience-Defy-20130502-Release.zip
2. WajkIUI_multilang_3.1.27.zip
3.
Unfortunately "not working" means usually no more bootups, no way to get into custom recovery for restoring or reflashing, so you'll have to start all over again:
1. Flash first sbf (sig)
2. Flash second sbf for root (sig)
3. Install SndInit 2.0
4. boot into recovery
5. flash your new flavour
...tbc

for supporters
If someone managed to get a custom ROM to work, please provide following informations:
Build# of the "wrong" sbf
sbf's used for root (there are already 2 known combinations, CN & CEE)
used SndInit (should be greater than 2.0 i guess)
full flash instructions
which recovery used for wiping
which one for flashing
how many reboots
approx. duration of the process
ROM Version and build
Information about 2nd boot or 2nd init and when to set it
Does the camera work?
Please, ONLY BL7 stucking ROMs, this is a special thread for special cases.

Thanks, but this thread is GB-based ROM's only.
I wanted to have a snappier / more responsive / smooth ROM instead of feature-rich slow/laggy ones. - See OP.
To clarify: 2.3.x-based ROM's only.
Thanks anyway.

I might remove the restriction of GB based Roms, but basically every 2nd Boot Rom works so i might collect only Rom trees, no single versions. Any opinions on this?
