For the most custom ROMs you have to repack the kernel. However, on ViperX ROM there's no need to repack, just flash the boot.img for the kernel and install the modules in CWM.

Sweet so no repacks needed for viperx Rom just install the original custom kernels then? i.e faux123 kernal

Sorry another noob Question based off of this, but how do you know if a Rom needs a repacked kernal or not?

Yuo, no need for repack. Just download the ones from the official faux thread and you're ready to go!

If there are any ramdisk tweaks you need a repack. It's usually also stated in the OP if you need repack.

[Q]

Hi all guys. I flashed Ice col jelly 4.2.1 and i have some questions.. Why there si no photosphere option in camera app ? Which 3.x kernel can I sue for it to use project butter and optimize battery life ?

Hi. I've heard that photosphere is not supported on our device (it makes the camera app FC) and that's why developers removed it from their rom.
For the kernel, I don't know, I might be interested if someone has an answer.
PS : maybe you should be more specific in the title of your thread

I tried Trip's one x+ kernel on ICJ421 when it first came out it was v002 if I remember right. I was able to boot but got reboot after a minute of use.
The stock kernel is the best at the moment.

Maybe I will try this kernrl to know if the developer fixed this bug! How to flash the kernel ?

Repack the boot, flash like normal: fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then flash modules in recovery.
And nandroid before flashing!

Cant flash any kernels on my hox quadcore

i tried both with viper x 3.3.1 and insertcoin v15.2.0. Every time I try to flash bricked kernel it flashes the kernel and then bootloop. I would really appreciate if someone would give me a zip file of faux kernel. I only find moduls on this site...
Please help I need a kernel.

Currently there are no available custom kernels for the jelly bean base, because htc didnt release the kernel source code yet. All you can use will be the stock htc kernel that is also incorporated inside the rom when you extract it.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

There is the custom-stock kernel made by TripNDroid from Tegra3 references and from HOX+ source.

Just reflash the rom to fix the modules and reflash the original boot.img .....

Yeah , and quit flashing ICS kernel onto JB rom , that can lead into some issues, bigger then you think.

Ok got it. Staying with viper x 3.2.2 and waiting for jb kernels to be created. When is htc giving the source to the devs?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

They should release the code about 90 days after the release.....but nobody knows for sure !

Just got new update from htc to 2.22.401.6

Hi Guys, just got info and installing

Odp: Just got new update from htc to 2.22.401.6
It means "System improvements"
Sent from my HTC One V using xda app-developers app

So whats the deal? I mean when it says system improvements does it refer to the radios or just the ROM

Can not install ...
Direct brush ROM better ...

after 3 day using i see performance boost comparing last version. Now i'm on stock kernel and rom and no need for kernel changes. Full stock rom with stock kernel give's me 4,5k results in antutu v3.

You need stock recovery not cwm
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app

I came here with the same issue, the update today wouldn't apply (rooted, stock, cwm touch).
I now know the stock recovery is required after the last post.
my next question now is...can I revert to the stock recovery until I can install the update, and if so would that be the 'recovery.img' that is in the folder with the full backup of my stock ROM?
And if that's the case, do I fastboot flash that as I did to install cwm?
If not, how do I revert to stock recovery?
Thanks.

[Q] HTC ONE X with CM 10.1 Nightly battery drain

Hi all, i flashed my One X to CM 10.1 Nightly, but the battery drain is awfull. I tried to flash it with the franco kernel but that made my phone stuck in BOOT. I heard of a Semaphore kernel, but i cant find one for the One X only for the Nexus 4 and SIII.....any ideas anyone

Only use aosp based kernels, and kernels for JB roms......franco/faux kernels are for ICS based roms ! Not gonna work
Try XM kernel

Yes xm kernel was the best for me in cm 10.1 roms with battery but with seadrsn rom

What does aosp based mean??

Senseless roms based on pure Google source.
aosp stands for android open source project. Mostly means that there is no HTC sense shell added
So when you are on CM10.1 you need the aosp version of the xm kernel if you wish to try that.

Ok, i am clueless...lol
I read the thread (not all but the topic itself) It seems i need to repack something...hmmm difficult.
And what version should i use Senseless or aosp? Damn abbreviations, is there is list of those and what they mean?

Try trickster mod/Set cpu

Uh oh my WiFI and Internet dont work no more...seems to be a common problem. I could instal another ROM thats works better with this kernel, or?

That will be the kernel modules or the boot.IMG you flashed.
I would suggest using the snapshot rather than nightly.

Well i flashed a new rom : RENOVATE 4 with the xm_kernel_241_RENOVATE. It all works fine now.....thnx for the help.
