this fix is applied to the source, even if you did unpack the boot.img and the kernel, it would not be a simple comment out of the line

Are you using a ROM ? If so, go to the ROM's page and use the boot.img meant for that ROM.
I'm using stock

You have to find and install stock kernel modules zip file in recovery after flashing the boot image. You can use venom flasher of viper forum to revert to stock

Under android dev thread you will find all official RUUs released. Find the one matching your 415.11 code.download it.
Once downloaded, run it. When the first screen comes up, open an explorer, change dir to %tmp%, you will see two newly created directories. In one of them, find the file ROM.zip and copy it somewhere else. Now exit ruu setup. Open ROM.zip file and in it there are the IMG files you seek. However installing only boot.IMG won't work. They need their modules files to work properly. That's what I meant by flashing the modules zip in recovery.

Stock kernel is the boot.img and cannot be apply from recovery. It must be flash in fastboot mode - fastboot flash boot boot.img or use any kernel flasher. And you need to flash the stock modules too.

Boot.img from Official ICS

Hi,
I'm working on a ROM with ItsMeBdon and Shawn and we're upgrading our current zip to ICS. I believe we need to replace the kernel, I'm not sure how to update the modem to the current. Could we get the boot.img and some pointers?
Here you go, buddy! Just extracted it!
You could've done this yourself, there are plenty of archive tools out there that can open the Official ICS Package: I927UCLH2_I927UCALH2_I927UCALH2_HOME.tar.md5
Okay, one more thing. I've been busy lately so haven't been able to make a flashable zip. Can I get the system dump from anyone who can do it? Thanks

The stock kernel is 'kernel.sin', and it's present inside the ICS FTF file.

Thanks. If i flash custom kernel (.img) with fastboot mode and when i want to come back stock kernel, i flash stock kernel by flashmode, is it right.
(Sorry for my bad english)

Where to download stock boot.img and META-INF for Arc S?

I started making my ROM with Android Kitchen and I dumped system folder from ftf file.
But I cannot find META-INF and boot.img to use for ROM.
I tried using MIUI v4 META-INF and boot.img but I get status 6 error while installing ROM. By Kitchen's FAQ it means something is up with update-script. So, I need to find stock boot.img for latest ICS Arc S firmware and associated META-INF with update-script.
I searched for those files for more than 8 hours, still can't find them.
I hope if anyone posts them that I could be able to normally install ROM without a problem.
Thank you in forward.
Err, there is no stock boot.img. All stock kernels are provided in the stock firmware packages also known as FTF files.
Depending on what you need it for, you can download the source code(, make the modifications) and compile it yourself.
Hmmm, how am I going to make custom ROM without boot.img if it is needed(or is it?).
I can't get any other custom kernel because I want to make ROM for locked bootloader phone.
Do you know what should I do to complete ROM if i can't have stock boot.img?

Yeah, that's what I though after someguyfromhell wrote a post and I made a new zip without boot.img and deleted write_raw_image line from update-script.
Right now I am searching for solution to other problem(some folders and files are not showing up on my sdcard while viewing it in Windows, so I have no space to drop ROM in there, will try when I fix this).
Thank you both for replies, will try to fix this soon.

If you are going to do a ROM for locked bootloaders, then there is no boot.img needed at all. Locked bootloader means stock kernel, means no boot.img.
Also, it is not needed. Some ROM developers supply their own kernels together with the ROM, however it is not a requirement.

Flashing Stock Kernel

Hi,
I am currently running the 5.1 version of the Digital High GPE rom and would like to flash the stock kernel. I looked some on htcdev but all I found was the kernel source. Is there any place that I can find a flashable zip that will install the stock kernel? Thanks!

You can find a firmware zip there with the stock boot img included.

Awesome! So I extracted the boot.img from the zip file. Now, just to confirm, all I have to do is use the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and I should be set with the stock kernel? Thanks!

That would be correct.
Don't forget to flash the matching stock modules too !

Which is why extracting the boot.img from the GPE ROM as I stated in the thread that I linked to is the better option.

So if I flash the boot.img from the stock rom like you stated, do I also have to flash the modules?
