[Q] Stock Kernel With CM7

Hey,
Would it be possible to flash CM7 with the stock kernel on Xperia Arc S?
I want to try a new ROM but I'm not sure if you need another kernel than the stock. And I couldn't find any existing thread with this problem
(I have rooted it and an unlocked the bootloader)
I hope you can help me out

You need to flash the kernel of CM7 or any custom kernel that's compatible with CM7.
As FXP already stated in his thread:

HOWTO
to flash cm7 rom you have to take 3 steps (after unpacking the 7z archive)
step 2 - flash new kernel (always use the kernel provided in CM7 / it is incompatible with stock ROM)

Yup, AOSP-based ROMs don't work with the stock kernel.

Okay thanks. And when I want to get back to my origional ROM (stock), I don't have to flash another kernel. Or do I have to change the kernel everytime I change the ROM? And what makes Doomkernel so special actually?

Some ROMs need specific kernels to work properly. Of course this doesn't necessarily mean that each time you change your rom, you will have to change your kernel as well. Most of the times, in the thread of each ROM you will find info on what kernel is needed each time.
I'm using DoomKernel because I'm very satisfied with its speed and its CWM recovery which is veeery helpful if you wanna try things on your phone!

I already use CWM. Isn't there a kernel that works with any ROM

Xperia Arc ICS Overclock?

I have used the DooMlord LT18i flash method to get ICS and rooted my Arc, i would like to try clock it a little to maybe 1.4ghz but cant find a kernel that will work, does anyone know of any possibilities

[KERNEL][ARC/ARC S]ArcKnight Kernel V8 STABLE - ICS/ Update May 1st!!
[KERNEL][ARC/ARC S] DooMKernel {ICS} [Rel:v4][Dt:22/MAR][FW:ICSBeta/.562(LEAK)]
both can be used for overclocking

thank you massively, i thought they would do, but am not 100% great at modding etc so thought i'd ask just to be on the safe side

You'll also need an app like this or similar to overclock the kernel.

no frill cpu, set cpu...there are many app who can do that

I know its locked, but that kernel can still be used with .431.
I'm using it right now without any problems so far

with a custom kernel

Unlock the bootloader then flash triniity kernel then intall no-frills for overclocking.

If you want a overclocking without app I can help u

clock work recovery restore to ics?

I am on 2.3.3 rooted with doom kernal v14 i have jb theme I was wondering if you could install ics or jb from a backup and restore copy I know the cola rom you can do this? I have a r800x verizon and any time I flashed any ics or jb rom i have no phone service..
thanks..

No! You need the right kernel for the backups. DoomLords v14 is a GB kernel and Cola rom is Gb stock rom so you don't need to change kernel's for that

You cant use Doomlords v14 it only works for GSM xperia play. Do not follow the post above you will get a black screen if you do. And yes you can install ICS on the R800x you just wont have phone service.

For battery Life the stock One is the best. If you want some Extras Flash the custom One. For me the stock One ist best

I am using Lupus v14 since they release it,,i like it qua performance very good and battery life is upto 12 to 13 hours its more than enough for me also alot of tweaks example zram,usb oti,verndor options, network optimizations,defend against arp spoofing , micro sdcard speed.
so go on and flash it and try it i think you will like it.
