[Q] Kernal question. - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am running Evo 4g Supersonic. I have RA reloaded recovery , running the latest 4Korners ROM. Was reading through the post and see allot of kernel suggestions but they are making reference to other roms that developer has made. I just really was wondering what kernel that allows over clocking and works best with that rom. Due to having so few posts I am limited on where I can post. I hope I am posting in the right forum. If not I apologize in advance. I have tried reading and researching but some forums have 100s of pages to try to sort through. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know it sounds like a lot of work. But the best advice I can give is to read through the thread if your going to use the Rom. At the very least skim through most of the thread. It will help you out in the future.

Its sense 1.0,so you can use Ca1nes Underworld kernel,Classic kernel or Lithids Freedom kernel.

Android :: HTC Evo 4G :: Questions on flashing custom ROMs/kernels

Hey everyone,
I'm still fairly new to Android. I had an iPhone previously, which I jailbroke and was quite comfortable with doing that. Now Android has a whole new slew of options that I'm not quite sure I understand and/or am comfortable with.
My Evo is rooted with the most up-to-date OTA, so I've got that down and I'm comfortable with how all of that works. I've installed ClockworkMod and wanted to start flashing some custom ROMs and kernels... but I don't know how they work together.
So, on to the questions:
## Can you flash any kernel with any custom ROM?
## Does the order you flash them in matter?
## I have a recovery ROM in case anything goes wrong... but how do you recover the kernel if things go wrong?
Really just looking for some quick and dirty info on these topics.
Thanks!
Hi, I will like the same info as you. I flashed kings kernel #11 on my EVO and I noticed that my videos don't play as smooth as they did with the original HTC Kernel. So I too will like to know how to recover my original Kernel. I hope someone could help us. If I found anything, I'll let you know.
reported it to mods, so that it is moved to the right section, more help will be provided in the right section

Flash rom first, kernel second. Threads should specify if its for AOSP roms or Sense. What rom are you on? There are lots of kernel threads in the dev forums pick one you like and go! HTC kernels are there too if you search.

[Q] Need some help...

Ok I have alot going on over here on my brothers Epic 4G. First off i rooted it and is running ACS SyndicateROM Twilight Zone 1.0.4 (Malanga) EB13 build, im pretty sure you guys know exactly which ROM thats is, but anyways, he is getting horrible battery life and I was going to try to put him back stock and see what the newest updates for the Epic would be. For some reason whatever I do to try to Odin it never works but thats another story. Basically what I want to know is what ROM out there that doesnt really have alot of bells and whistles and that has great battery life that I can load up? Since I cant seem to upgrade to EC05, I guess i have to stick with a EB13 build.
I also know kernels has alot to do with the battery life as well and right now its running kernel 2.6.32.9. IDK just by looking at the kernel you know if it has bad battery life or what. I am going to try to wipe the battery stats and see how that works out.
Sorry for all the noobish questions. I am very familiar with loading ROMS and kernels and Clockwork and all that since im a ROM tester for the Droid 1, and I know things are similiar but I do see their are some differences. If someone could help me out I would greatly appreciate it.
You probably won't get much response or get a response you don't want posting in a dev section.

some roms like midnights will automatically update you to ECO05, but a good, stock rom would have to be Simply ASOP, otherwise, just flash all the other EB13 roms. there hasnt been an update to most roms in months now though

#1. There is an update.zip to change the modem, have you tried this? I am unsure of Samsung's tool as I upgraded my modem through that update.zip that was made by ACS as well I believe, look around...
#2. Go to the ACS newest ROM (3/27) it is 1.1 I believe, and they have detailed instructions on how to upgrade, as well as pretty good instructions on Kernels, I would look at the Twilight kernel that runs with ACS well, just to keep it easy for now (although there are others and no disrespect to any others). The instructions to load the new kernel and modem will be in the ACS thread, please go there and read the first 2-3 posts that give you a good rundown of the ROM, and if you really do have some techie knowledge you should be able to easily load up the newest ROM....
I know this is the wrong section, but I'd rather help than bash, next time you can play with the forums and figure out where to post please (actually not general discussion, there is a Q&A page...).
I would really recommend ACS newest ROM 1.1 it is solid and the kernel is an excellent every day driver.
You may be having trouble going back to stock with odin die to the conversion to ectension4 try and tick the re position box if you go that route.
You won't be disappointed with acs 1,1 takira(i believe)
Peace

Moved to Q&A.

Currently Best Recovery?

So, Ive been around the S3 forums for awhile, but not so much the root side. Im wondering which is the best all around recovery? Back on the evo, clockwork recovery was HORRIBLE and flashed all ROMs bad and always messed them up but AmonRa did everything flawlessly.
Is there any S3 recovery's that are messed up and flash roms incorrectly? or does everyone just seem to use a main one? If so, which.
Also another question. Do developers on the s3 actually update OP with bugs people find? On the original evo, it was horrible because there would be so many bugs on some roms and OPs where only updated with change log and not known bugs.
Also, can someone tell me the most used ROMs on the s3? nightlies i tend to avoid because they lack to much details and im practically blindly flashing those.
Any 4.2 stock or 4.1 stock or anything? Any kernel suggestions, anything i should be warned about?
Thanks in advance.
Also, sorry for being a forum pest =p
All of these are subjective questions...try out both CWM and TWRP, find which you like better and look into the Development section to see what roms are available, the only way to know for sure whether a rom would be good for you and whether you like it is to flash for yourself rather than taking peoples words for it
Also, theres been at least 5 other threads like this where people have asked "what rom/kernel?", I would suggest looking for those and reading.

You could do that or just use TWRP .

I came to the GS3 from a long history as an Evo owner. While i was on HTC hardware I loved TWRP as it was always the most stable and best supported. On my GS3 though i find that there is better support for the CWM recovery. It seems to work better in my opinion. I have tried both but keep using CWM. I am a CM10.1 user as well and I think that it likes CWM better than TWRP.

Most stable Rom? and is this the easiest way to root? (first root and rom on this pho

Hey guys,
Ive had the S3 long enough (couple months) that its time to root it, so i can tether and get rid of this lag (which a phone this powerful should not have). I have the Tmobile version. Ive rooted all my previous android phones, so this won't be my first.
Is this the easiest way to root?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746682
Also, can you give me a couple suggestions on which Rom should I start with (most stable and smooth)? Please note, I am not asking what is the best, most featured packed Rom. Just asking for a couple of options on the most stable and smooth easy rom to start with....(guessing something that is 4.1.1 or 4.1.2?)
I realize that asking which Rom is best just gets old as it has been asked and constantly changes every couple of days and just pisses everyone off, so please don't think I'm just asking for the best rom, just asking for a couple suggestions on a very, very, stable and smooth rom?
Thanks!

thanks, i actually did look before i posted. that is where i got the link for the root information.
Also, your resource guide is awesome, but i know these rome get updated every few days, and it looks like its been a little over a month since some of the rome in your guide were updated; which is why i was asking for suggestions on the most stable/smoothest rom out now.
Thank you
Kennyglass,
thanks for moving it. i just now noticed i posted in general instead of Q and A...
Any more opinions on if that is the way i should root, or which are the most stable/complete/smoothest rom would be appreciated
I say root is best by Odin and then using goomanager to achieve the latest recovery.
best rom is up to you, what you are looking for is in my resource guide and further more in the dev section. Reason there is no best rom is because that is an opinion, these threads all get shut down cause it is a pointless question, that ALWAYS gets sidetracked and goes south. Every thread ends with a mod letting you know, flash and see which works best for you. So, do just that, read and flash which looks like you will enjoy the most. Use my guide as reference or starting point, and read from there.

Problem installing Roms

After trying my hand at installing a mod (cyanogenmod 10.2) I need to go a different direction and get a more stable rom. So I wanted to give cyanogenmod 10.1 a go. Unfortunately it fails on install. After reading through some forums I saw that I needed to install it after I load up stock fl26. But fl26 also failed on install. I'm going to prep for install with another rom but is there something basic I'm missing here?

Hey bud, Your thread the other day got closed (for asking what the best ROMs are), but let me give you some more pressing advice:
Do a lot of reading before doing anything else. It sounds like you might have jumped into this a bit too quick if you're having this many problems. I don't mean that in a bad way, not at all. None of us knew anything when we started... There is a lot to learn in terms of messing with what's inside our devices. If you can't get a ROM to flash right, I strongly suggest you stop - just set the thing down and read, before you brick it and have no more phone.
Every ROM has a Post #1 (the "OP") that has exact flashing instructions, and links to applicable downloads. Make time for that reading - the FAQ threads, the General threads, and the thread for the ROM you want to flash. Because you're on an older device, I promise you that all of the kinks have been ironed out or bugs are well-known (and not going to be fixed) and this is all available from reading. Okay? Good luck.

Install a stock GB27 one click rom. That should reset your phone, and let you install whatever custom rom you want.
I know right... reading....... like when you read a thread about "Best" Roms and it doesn't say best anywhere in the post. :laugh:
Thanks for the help Bud! :good:

If you would like... I can link you to a mobile Odin guide I put together for another member.. it's the easiest way to flash roms on this device( in my humble opinion )...
FYI... I sense that you might be a little upset with some of the posts...Rest assured... nobody is flaming you in this forum... These guys have tons of experience and just don't want you to brick you're device...
Also... this should have been asked in the noob friendly Q & A thread ( it's stickied at the top of the page )...no biggy, We are just trying to keep the Q & A section clean... for all of us to use...
Let me know if you want the link... and Welcome to XDA.. Epic 4g Touch forum...
