Kernels - Miui - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

So I have the newest miui rom that is in the android development section. I am wondering if there are any kernels that I can change to that are better than the one it comes with. Am I even able to switch kernels?

Get the AOSP version of it JB also

Isn't there a kernel by faux or something? Or is there only one kernel I can have?

Yes, Fuax has a JB CM10 kernel. It's what I use since KT747 doesn't ever work for me.

[Q] Help needed! Urgent

My friend asked me to flash cyanogenmod on his play. But when I flashed it, it was very slow. Doomslord kernel, not the ice one. And cm7 from official cm site. Is there something wrong with this setup that causes the extreme slowness? Pls help me.
First try and see if CM lowered the CPU frequency. Go to settings -> cyanogenmod settings -> performance (or something similar) -> CPU settings.
If this isn't the case, try flashing their own kernel or install a nightly build.
Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't it state that cyanogen roms are only compatible with cyanogem kernels? So any other kernels would cause problems.

That's not entirely true. Some kernels can use CyanogenMod sources, but with tweaks, so technically those aren't CyanogenMod kernels. Then there are times where there are very minor bugs while using kernels that aren't CyanogenMod kernels. In many cases, those bugs are negligible, and easily worked around.
So no, there are other kernels that would work with CyanogenMod.
What model of Xperia Play is it? Is it GSM or CDMA? Which specific DooMKerneL was flashed, can you link to the thread?
Can someone link me to that kernel? I'm very lost over here. I've rooted and flashed roms to so many devices but the one is the hardest to date.

Kernel and ROM Mix/Match

Can you just mix and match a kernel with a custom ROM? Or how do I know if they are compatible, without nandroid+trial+error.
I was using stock/rooted jellybean ROM + franco kernel. I just flashed AOKP which includes it's own kernel (tuna-faux), but want to go back to franco.
Thanks for the help. I did try searching but did not find this information.
as long as the kernel supports the android version (4.0.4 or 4.1.1, etc) of the rom you are on, you're fine.

And are they backwards compatible? Can I use a 4.1.1 kernel with a 4.0.4 ROM?
Thanks for the reply!

No, you can't. Stay on the same version.

Trial and error I'm afraid. I had AOKP and flashed Franco on top and it broke a couple minor things, like Settings - Storage would FC every time with this combination. So I assumed there is a reason AOKP came with tuna-faux, it was tested on it and made for it.
aokp and cyanogen come with a kernel for their code, i think you can't flash other kernel

You might be on Alpha 29 or a lower version based on the timestamps on Morfic's site:

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.

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

[Q] Compatibility Of Kernels Question

I have recently installed CM10 on my AT&T galaxy s3(sgh-i747) and was wondering how to figure out if a kernel is compatible with my device. I was looking at the Devil kernel and didn't understand how to know if it would work with my phone.
Read the kernels thread OP. It should specify if it's for AOSP ROMs or Touchwiz ROMs. Kernels for our devices can be found in the Android development and original development sections.

You mentioned CM10, so you want one that works with AOSP based ROMs. Also make sure they explicitly say CM10(Jellybean 4.1) or CM10.1 (Jellybean 4.2.1), depending on what version of Jellybean you have.

So im I'm looking at the kernel kt747 by ktoonz and there is a version for jellybean 4.2.1 and one that just says jellybean would it be safe to flash the one that just says aosp jellybean version (BTW I have cm10 so I have 4.1.2 not 4.2.1)? Thanks for all of the help.
Flash the one that says jellybean AOSP (12/11).

Yes. Flash the normal JB version. 4.2.1 is solely for 4.2.1. Not 4.1.2
Thanks
It worked well, thanks everyone for the help.

[Q] AOSP only and moderns

I have a couple of newbie questions I Hope someone can answer. I'm rooted and using the pegasus kernal. I looked at the kernal page for my phone and saw that the Matrix Kernal was AOSP only. What does that mean? I was also wondering about modems. Is it safe to flash then with the stock rom, or do you need something else before flashing s modem. Thanks for any advise.

AOSP = Android Open Source Project. So matrix kernel will only work with roms that using AOSP. Example: Cyanogen Mod, Carbon Rom, Pac Man Rom...etc..
Its safe to flash modems using the stock rom. You can do it on AOSP as well.
Thank you
