I have took the plunge and finally rooted my HOX, and I've noticed the difference already, the question is though, whats the best kernel out there for viperx or coreDroid, battery is my primary concern and I have no interest in overclocking my device.

Faux's Kernel is apparantly brilliant, especially when coupled with Viper X.
I've seen claims of up to 4/5 hours on Screen time.
Hope this helps mate.

Welcome to the party
I'm on ViperX and have only been using Faux since the 006 series. The newest released kernel which is not a beta is the 007 kernel. If you want to go for great battery then the 007m is the one you want.
There is a new beta from Faux called 10b5 which also has great battery life. I just got 5 hours of screentime out of it, but do keep in mind that this is a beta kernel which is overclocked.
Hope that this helped shine som light on the subject
The best way is to download the zip to your computer.
Extract the boot.img from the zip\kernel folder and put it in your fastboot folder.
Place the .zip on your sd card.
Boot the phone into fastboot through the bootloader.
Open cmd promt (windows button+r --> wirte: cmd)
navigate to your fastboot folder (eg. cd C:\fastboot)
use the following commands:
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot erase cache
On your phone go into recovery
advanced --> wipe dalvic cache --> go back
Install from sd card --> choose zip file --> locate the zip and install it
Reboot your phone --> done
Hope this doesn't sound too complicated, it really isn't as soon as you have done it a comple os times it takes 2 minuttes or less to do

No, the 007m isn't overclocked - the gpu is unlocked to 520 mhz, but that's it.

Actually guys I'm confused, why is there two One X development threads, 1 original android dev and one x android dev, why is this??
Also can I use viper flasher to flash the 007m kernel or do you have the link to it, I can only find the 007 version or is it me being a noob.

First you will want to update the rom using the OTA service that the Viper team provide. This is found the same place as the normal OTA from HTC (Settings --> about phone --> Software update), newest version is 2.1
Use the step by step guide provided a couple os post's back. Go to faux thread in Original Development and find a download mirror.
Listen guys, this is important: For ViperX you should not repack you kernels. This will only make the rom unstable.

The "Original Android Development Thread" is for ROMS that have been built from the Ground Up. (From Scratch?)
Where as the "Development Thread" is for ROM's that are based on the Stock ROM but have been tweaked etc
Hope this helps.

4. Flash the boot.img from the zip of Endeavoru-Faux123-007m.zip(downloaded from One-X Kernel 007 Mainline)
5.Go into the recovery mode and also flash the Endeavoru-Faux123-007m.zip

Just flash the boot.img in the rom zip and flash the rom again with ONLY wiping cache and dalvik cache, NOT data.
But believe me, once you've tried faux kernel you'll never want to go back to stock again
I thought so too... battery life and performance is great, but my phone hangs when I finish a call and I need to reboot every time I make a call :crying: :crying: So no use for me altough I wish. Problem is I'm on viper 2.1.0 which means I need to flash 2.0.0 and go through OTA again? ...

I'm sorry but what are you doing?? Your downloading things ready to flash them even when you have no idea what they are or what they do.
Now I'm not being funny with you but PLEASE!!! Come on, read,research etc etc. If you don't know what or how a kernel is flashed then you seriously should not be messing with it.
P.s. I really don't know what all this obsession is with o/c to Max because then you'll be moaning about battery discharging too fast.

Matey, this has been answered a few times (to say the least) so try using the search bar to see if your question has already been answered, which i know it has.
If you are using CM7.1.0.1 u dont need to flash another kernal because the kernal that comes with the rom is oc'able.
Go to settings > cyanogen settings > performance > cpu
Use my settings in my Sig as a guide. These are tested and stable and battery life is fine. I do not need to OC to the max.
EDIT: I have attempted to OC to the point where my system is stable, I get 2 days battery life, and angry birds plays smoothly
Flash like anything else

Hey guys,
I'm currently running CM10 and I use my phone quite a lot. I got wifi and 3G on all the time, but I want to maximize the battery even further.
How can I? I only installed CM10 Rom.zip and flashed boot.img. Nothing about kernel (or does it do that automaticly by installing a rom...?)
Let me know!

install the NCX kernel v10 b1, the AOSP version http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1873615, read carefully the steps to install, and wipe your cache
just complete a full charging cycle, which means drain the battery to 0% then charge it to 100% then start use ur mobile normally again, just tell me after a day of use, have u reached n3o's (the kernel creator) results?

I took the standard edition and also flashed the modules. Wiped all cache and stuff, except reset user data.
It just booted and now it has screen 'android is being updated, app # of # is being optimized"
And now it booted.
Guess that is normal? Anyway.. I hope battery is better now!

Nope, not necessarily. For the leaked Sense JB, you need to update the hboot, which means you need to have a matching CID.
u can use faux kernel which is just amazing, you can see some people up to 6 hours screen time with wifi on, don't know if 3g will make a huge difference though

Hi guys,
I'm not very skilled in flashing ROMs, but I do it anyway every other day or so as am curious on what new ROMs can provide. I now longer panic when the phone get stuck at the bootscreen. Now when it occasionally happens I now have time to thinking about the reason for the bootloop - and that's why I start this thread
For some reason there are ROMs that I'm not able in install, like the official nightlies from CM 10 and Liquidsmooth RC9 - but I have no problems installing the "pure" Jellybean 4.2.1 (AOSP), TripNDroid CM 10.1 and Blade v4 (desensed) which I'm currently running.
Can anyone explain why some are able to boot on my HOX and some are not?
For your info, I'm on the Tegra 3 version using HBOOT 1.36 S-ON - Recovery is CWM 5.8.4.0
Thanks in advance.

I always do this - of course I can miss it sometimes. So I always trye reflashing if the phone get stuck in bootloop... But with the above mentiones ROMs I can't install them not matter what I do.
I think it may be caused by your hboot version: 1.36. You may need a special repacked boot.img to run some AOSP/AOKP/CM10 ROMs.
DO you Flash the correct boot.img ???
I always thought the hboot versions was backward compatible?
Regarding the boot.img -> then I alway extrat the boot from the ROM zip - and maybe that's the problem?

The fact of the matter is that most of the 4.2.1 based custom rom are compatible with HBOOT 1.28+ on the contrary to 4.1.2 based roms. For second ones U have to flash a special boot.img.

No, such thing doesn't exist. Every ROM has it's own workaround for hboot incompatibilities.
And every ROM uses a different kernel so it would be impossible.

Hi and Thnx Guy,
I actually rooted my Desire HD for the first time using HTC_QuickRoot_1.1.13 after unlocking bootloader via HTC site. Then I flashed CWR via flashboot using cmd on PC.
After that I just placed the GimmeABreak ROM on SD card and flashed via CWR. Oh and it was stuck in HTC screen after this and after much reading figured out that I had to flash the boot.img via PC.
This is pretty much all I did. ROM works perfectly fine. Except I saw that the battery charges pretty slow. But I read that it takes 2 or 3 charge cycles to get optimum levels. BTW I saw an app that deletes battery stats files and recalibrate it. You think it would help?
Cheers mate.
maybe you can try wipe battery stats under CWM recovery..but i don't know if there are in CWM menu..
or maybe you might also try installing another rom..
hopefully can help..

There's a multitude of ways you can increase your battery life
First off, buy an extended battery, they're around £20. It helps a lot!
Underclocking helps a lot, especially when the screen is off. l usually set my phone to run at 300 MHz when the screen is off and also force it to use the conservative governor. When using the phone I usually set it to 700 MHz so it wont drain.
Undervolting is good

if you one still want used that GimmeABreak rom but want good battery life..just do what GuyInTheCorner say..

i suggest better don't used rom manager to do that all...if you want to backup first..just do NAND backup (this will backup all inside your rom) from your recovery then wipe data/factory reset (except sd card), and then continue flashing new rom from recovery too..

No....what i mean with the Nandroid backup is backup Nandroid image through the Recovery that you used..like CWM, 4Ext recovery, or TWRP recovery..there's a backup option in the recovery menu it self to do backup all your android system and data that you used..
hopefully you can understand what i mean..

Hope Dooms ramdisk is compatible with out rom! I can not see reason for using custom kernel since our device flying with stock kernel but allso since our phone is quadcore I thinking now about http://www.s21.com/sar.htm and don't trust any overvolting like some kernels have non oficially! I think that changing voltages is bad idea since increasing voltage to some chips maybe will increase S.A.R value which is not good for head or body! So think about that !

Thanks for the heads up, yeah the doom kernel for our z1 compact is stock, doom only adds CWM. I agree our phones are fast enough what would be the point of overclocking, underclocking or messing with voltages as battery life is great as well.
I'm more worried about privacy, I will be happy if some good developers contribute here in Privacy Guard implementation! I will start that probably tommorow and seccond day, allready have 70 percent implemented, rest is hard since libbinder will be a problem (probably I will need to use AOSP libbinder and use some changes from CM11 ) , hope we all done that soon. Progress will be on git soon.
You are right about failed install message in CMW! Zip downloaded from git can not be installed! I must make rom manyaly and give you new link for download, sorry!

No bugs, but only 4k video is not working, eerything other is working (background defocus, portrait retouch, timeshift video (no 120fps but its working ok with ~40-~60fps), china photo editor, shortcuts for 4k and timeshift booth in camera drawer + camera widget). Just to inform all, nothing is modified in stock camera so there will be no problems, only patched things is pathed Z2 camera things, so you will have definitelly no problems in cam since I not used copy paste from other ports!
Next step... laynch flash tool, chose latest kitkat ftf...
would that be this one? http://www.mediafire.com/download/g1mahcm5y8cax2q/D5503_14.3.A.0.681_Generic+UK-nosystem.ftf
