[Q] Compatibility Of Kernels Question - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

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.

So what specifications would it need to be compatible with my phone.

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.

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

Kernels - Miui

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.

Yeah, plenty of those as well, check the original development forum, that's where all of the CM10 and Aosp based stuff are located.

Can i get Stock JB rom for Xperia Ion?

Hi guys:
My question that if we can find a stock JB rom exactly like the Nexus 4 rom but working on Xperia Ion?? And what is AKOP and AOSP roms?​
Sony not yet released any JB ROM/ Firmware for iON. It's due in May.
You will get official JB fw from the end of May.
AOSP means Android Open Source Project.
It is the "stock ROM" (or pure vanilla ROM) made by Google and is Open Source.
Lots of custom ROMs base on this rom, e.g. CyanogenMod, Panaroid Android, etc.
AOKP (Android Open Kang Projecy) is a custom ROM base on AOSP.

It depends on which ion you have. The international versions that can have the bootloader unlocked there is a CM10.0 (JB) ROM out. If you have at&t one then you're out of luck.

Here you go: Xperia ion Android Development
I wish you can find the rom you want.
you have to unlock your bootloader in order for you to flash CM, AOKP and AOSP roms..go to the development sections for ION and read the descritions and instructions in the OP :good: goodluck
Thanks , my bootloader is unlocked and i foung unofficial CM10 and i tried it , it's good but i want to know is there different between it and the stock android rom like AOSP? Can i find AOKP?​

@ The $niper : Read the above. You were asked to check the Development section. Unless you check the development section properly, asking questions won't be helping much.

I had typed an explanation for you with the differences between all those roms, but then I figured that everything I said could be easily Google'd, and if you didn't bother doing that, I shouldn't bother explaining what every rom is and waste my time...
Just know: AOSP is stock Android (it's what's on the Nexus 4, Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10, with a bit of a different layout for the tablets). CM, AOKP, Slim Bean and Paranoid Android (you should check PA out as well) are all basically AOSP with some extra options. The only way of really knowing them all is trying them. They're all pretty much the same but focus on a different aspect (AOKP and CM are in my opinion pretty much the same though). Also every rom has some screenshots in the thread to show what's new or different, just take a look at those.
One major advantage that all of the custom roms that I mentioned have over AOSP is that they support the theme engine, so you can easily change the looks by installing a theme app. There's lots of those on the Play Store. They're a handy way of changing the looks of your phone once in a while without having to flash a new rom.

The reason why i don't search on google that i am not very good with english language so i can't ream much to find the answer....
So what you are trying to told me that CM and AOKP both are stock android roms right? I tried them both and i saw them both exactly the same , just so small defferents.
Thank you because now i know what i have to search for: "JB 4.2 from CM or AOKP".
I tried both AOKP and CM10 , but also both have the same Wifi problem , it can't find any network.​

The only difference, pretty much, is the launcher is trubutch in cm and in google aosp its googles clean rom
But cyanogen mod gives you more options
And it has the tmobile theme engine
So you can do anything with cyanogenmod and almost anything with aosp

[Q] How do I check if a Kernal is compatible with the ROM im using?

Hi, I have been searching the forum but there isnt a definite answer. So far I gather that not every kernal is compatible with every ROM.
I am running PACMAN V22.11 [link]
And want to try Franco.Kernel [link]
Franco's thread only mentions Android OS version. And nothing regarding roms (searhced that thread for pacman as well)
Is it compatible with PACMAN? Can I go ahead and flash my first kernal? (excited :fingers-crossed: )
Bonus | Whilst we are at it, I wouldnt mind anyone side mentioning proven kernals for battery improvement. Or best performance/battery kernals they have used
-Galaxy Nexus Gsm (maguro)
Bump
Guys, is franco kernal compatible with all roms based on android 4.2.2 for galaxy nexus?
Thats it. Please?

That's because usually only OS version, not ROM, matters for kernel compatibility.

If it says it's 4.2.2 compatible, yes.
