Okay I am probably going to sound rather stupid here but I am confused
I have installed many custom roms and many kernels. I am experiencing very very bad flickering with all but the latest stock kernel 1.29.401.11
I got it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692404
Most AOSP roms don't work with this kernel though, so I am going back to a cooked sense rom. I suppose they should work with 1.29.401.11.
However I am wondering now whether this actually is the latest kernel? I am seeing lot of people using 2.17.401.2 base?!
Is the latter the rom version using the 1.29.401.11 kernel?? ....Like I said, probably stupid but confused nonetheless :laugh:

I think the answer is no.
But you can try ARHD 9.4.0 it use the latest stock kernel building on 2.17 base.
Enjoy it

Thanks will try that one!
The screen flickering is a manufacturing issue that has been discussed heavily on XDA. (See here)
And as too9s said, ARHD is a great custom ROM based on 2.17. However, there are repacked kernels that work well with ARHD in case you wanted to flash a custom kernel.
The one by Faux is very popular: Link
I'm on arhd 9.4 with faux 07vf oc 1.55 uv -75 and it is amazing
Heres a link to all repacked kernels for arhd plenty to choose from

question - which is most error free rom that has 2-way recording, ads free, and has current Gingerbread built.
sorry for asking this.. rather than searching, I do not know much, but there isn't a direct thread saying this is all one needs.
I have vodafone australia desire hd, which i updated with new system software update... i know a little bit that to flash a rom i need to downgrade first...
the question is ... all i need is the phone to be adfree and has 2-way recording... that is all i want along with whatever it is right now, with latest update from vodafone/htc.
thanks
The best rom so far with sense surely is Leedroid, its on 2.3.3 currently
I just flashed LeeDroid's latest v3.1.5 rom and 3.1.6 kernel and I must say I'm very impressed.. I previously had a HTC stock 2.3.3 GB rooted rom and there are clear differences in terms of speed and performance
MDJ's kernel (that works with pretty much all sense roms) has the 2WCR patch so if you like look of a ROM but want a different kernel, you can flash MDJ's. For a while I was using it with ARHD (for the 2WCR + higher overclock) but the new OC daemon is too good to not have
I was looking for a kernel for 2 way recording. I will try this one. Thanks

I personally tried several roms, and still experimenting new ones. 2-way call recording is vital to me. I think Coredroid and Leedroid are two good options.
Lee and MDJ are two kernels for Sense-based roms. Both of them support 2-way call recording. Now Lee kernel is 3.1.6 and MDJ's Unity is v2.
I personally chose Coredroid for its eye candy. I settle for 6.8 and then flashed with latest lee kernel 3.1.6. 7.0 is too new to me.
Since you just updated your firmware, let's pray it's not 2.37 or higher, or all you can do is just wait...

What are the differences?
I'm using Android Revolution HD 3.0.0 now and in the description mike1986 claims that stock 3.0.8 kernel is the best so far but with so many people using franco's kernel it must be better or am i wrong?
Also, will flashing franco.kernel on Android Revolution cause any bugs etc? (I'm kinda new to this whole flashing kernels part)
(If there are better roms do not hesitate to recommend me one and please tell me what's better if thats the case )
Thanks in advance!

I can not list the differences for you exactly just go to franco's thread. There are many advantages to flashing a custom kernel. The kernel devs work hard to make the kernel's better than stock in many ways. You'll get extra features and extended battery life for sure out of a custom kernel. Stock better? I dont think so! Flashing a kernel after a rom is the way you have to do it but, ya some settings might not work if the kernel dev had done things differently from the rom dev.
give it a shot if you dont like it you can always reflash your rom package to restore the roms kernel.
before flashing a kernel (or reflashing your rom after flashing a custom kernel) wipe your dalvik cache
so many people around here have a boner for franco but I always highly recommend GLaDOS kernel its imo the best and most advance but to each his own

Installing it now, let's see if you're right about GLaDOS
Thanks for the reply
Hi there,
I have a question. I ran Revolution HD on my HTC One X which had severe flickering in the beginning .... like so many others on this device. However after it was updated to HTC 1.29.401.11 the flickering was gone. Took maybe a couple of days but it was gone eventually
Now I am done with sense and moving on to IceCold AOKP which I absolutely love. However the flickering is back and as bad as it was before.
I am not a developer and maybe even a bit of a noob. But I am trying to understand how things work. So maybe a silly question but do the custom kernel developers incorporate the fix of HTC's 1.29 in their kernels so they get rid of the flickering when using their roms as well?
Regards
J
i have had no flickering on the new 2.05 base roms
It should be incorporated in the kernel as the current kernel sources are old you'll have to wait for new sources to include the fixes.
For the time being you'll have to live with it or flash another custom kernel and see if that improves or flash back to a HTC rom.

Thanks will try some other kernels as well!
On the page of this rom (on which I cannot post as a junior) I read flashing the boot.img included in the download is mandatory. So does this mean i HAVE to use the franco kernel?
I just flashed the stock kernel/modules anyway hoping it would solve the flickering...and it most certainly is not as bad now.
But what could this mean for the rom? Everything seems to work perfectly. So I don't get why franco is mandatory

I flashed the wicked red rom... and that is the default kernel it came with... i know it is Trinity.. but what version?
Should i flash another kernel for better performence?
Thank You

You might be on Alpha 29 or a lower version based on the timestamps on Morfic's site:
http://www.derkernel.com/ics-d2.php
I am on A43, I think A37 introduced tweaks in color, I would recommend upgrading to that atleast.
Make sure you choose the proper kernel, ICS or CM.

How would i know the proper kernel i need, ics or cm... is it if i have a cm rom than i need a cm kernel?

Yea you got it, CM roms need CM kernels, Stock roms need Stock kernels.
If you are on the Wicked Rom, it is based off the Stock Rom, so download the stock kernel:
TGST-STOCK-ICS-ALPHA43b <-----See the difference on how he names the file, download this one
TGST-CM9-ICS-ALPHA43b
I have seen to many kernel threads and none of them seems to say that the kernels are safe to use with the JB leaks.
I really don't see why they shouldn't, but I really wanted to be sure.
have anyone used a Franco, faux or similiar present kernel with the new JB leaks from Insert Coin or ARHD?
Do we have to repack them to be fine?
I know that kernel version should not be a problem, but we only have source code for the ICS kernel based in 2.6.X and the new kernel is 3.0.X
So I wanna know real experiences if possible
Thanks,
Santroph.
Hi, i have tried repacking a few of them as im keeping a list up together for the maximus thread but none of the linux 2 kernels have worked yet, will try trips kernel when i get round to it this week but it says no support for sense so probably a no go. I havent seen anything new yet but will keep my post updated as and when (link in my sig) they should work for other jb sense 4+ roms too :good:
