What kernel should i use?

I tried to put cyanogen mod on my arc s but i was stuck in a boot loop and i thought maybe i need a custom kernel for it.
What kernel should i use? Cyanogenmod Kernel or DooMKernerl for Cyanogenmod ?
Will the ARC-DooMKernel-v18-FIX1-lower_boot (1.6ghz) will work with cyanogen although i wont overclock the cpu? And whats the order of stept?
Root, flash kernel and then instal cyanogen from sd via cwm?
Thanx

Use FXP's kernel inside the package.
DooMKernel for CM7 is no longer supported atm.

I don't really understand your question, are you in a bootloop?
Sent from my LT18i using xda premium

I too had the same problem.
Its not exactly instant boot loop.
When CM boots up the first time, it asks us to touch the android to begin.
The moment you touch it, it reboots.
I got around this by downloading a lower/older version of CM. Helped me boot first, and analyze later.

do you flash the right baseband?

[HELP]Xperia Arc LT15i stuck on SONY after installing Xperia Ice Bean

Hi
After attempting to install Xperia Ice Bean on my Xperia LT15i awhile ago then reboot the phone, I am now astuck on SONY Logo. Itried giving n 10 minutes to wait for the tools to be installed however, I still got this SONY logo. I performed full reboot by removing the battery and still getting the same.
Now, I'm trying to revive my phone by installing the stock ROM of ICS 4.0.4.
Can somebody help me on this. I'm so nervous already that I might not be able to revive my phone.
Please I need your help guys ASAP.
BTW I'm using LT15i running on Rooted ICS 4.0.4 with the updated Busybox installed.
Managed to install CWM.
Here's what happened.
I have to tell it honestly. I didn't follow the instructions on how to correctly install the ROM. I just mount the sdcard and install the zip without even wiping the data and doing factory reset. I know its wrong but I still did it.
Can somebody assist me on this.
Thanks, I can donate some of my cash to your build if I revive my phone back.

Assuming you can get into flash mode, just reflash stock Rom available in the general arc section, use flashtools for this.
After you get stock back you are at the point of decision, do you stick with current set up or try custom roms, remember custom roms sometimes need custom kernels as well so you will need unlocked bootloader to send them via fastboot.
I have found some custom roms don't work I too get blank screens etc, but have installed the pureness build and it runs well

[Q] Bricked and not responding to Reboot Request

Xperia arc s: rooted and unlocked
Symptoms are as follows:
Attempted to install Cyanogen mod through using X-parts, however on initial reboot it simply got stuck at the Sony screen.
Cant get it to respond to any buttons or combinations there of and the PC wont detect it either. So its just sitting steady at Sony.
Are there any options or is this the end of the line?
Thanks,:crying:

Download Fusion kernel and flash with fastboot (google how to install custom kernels on arc s) then boot to CWM wipe all and install CM10 again. For CM9 download Lupus ICS CM9 based kernel and do the same.

Unhappy [Q] Bricked and not responding to Reboot Request
I agree with pypcier But on your post you say rooted & Unlocked when you say unlocked do you mean your bootloader is unlocked or your sim is unlocked?Also X-parts is really for locked bootloaders because it is installed to your system (where your rom is) when you install other firmware and format/wipe system you erase X-Parts so have to install again.That's why you are better of with a custom kernel with cwm built in :good: obviously you need unlocked bootloader for this

You say your phone is stuck at Sony logo so you forgot to flash the kernel. Just flash it through flashtool or fastboot

Not possible on locked bootloader because bootsplash is in kernel, and you can't install custom kernel.
Even on unlocked bootloader it's not easy to do (but not impossible)

i didn't know you can overclock it on locked bootloader...
Maybe add andreno booster on that list. It can speed some games up...
Feel free to test GB roms and find what you like most
Also search for orochi themes for GB on xda, IMHO, they can be pritty nice
Or you can be creative, uninstall apps that you don't use from /system/app , or install apps that you use often to /system/app (so you can have more space in data partition), clean up or add you favorites to /system/media/-ringtones-notifiation...
But that's pritty much all you can do... Because of kernel you are bound to GB roms...
Next level is unlocking your bootloader and trying other kernels or ICS/JB roms. They are more cool Slower, but cool

I m having xperia tablet z lte (sgp321) can i flash custom boot animation on locked bootloader? ??????
If yes. Then. Can i use boot animation app
