Hi, I know this is a bit of a noob question, but I want to flash a new kernel, and I don't know which kernels are safe to flash. I'm running CM 10.1 Wild for the Night with CWM 6.0.3.3 . I have a EL29 modem and the current kernel is something like 3.0.64-CM-q31f128d. As to why I want to flash a new kernel it's because I have an audio problem (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2374061) and other people with the same problem, but the GT-I9100 version of the s2, have reported it fixed by flashing the dorimanx kernel. However, I can't flash that one because it's only for the GT-I9100 right? So my question is which kernel can I flash?
I believe the only current AOSP kernels are the standard CM one (and its derivatives) and the LightningZap kernel. The CM one is the standard one in most of the AOSP ROMS.

Yeah I believe the cyanogenmod one is what I currently have. Is it possible to flash the LightningZap kernel using Mobile Odin while keeping my current Cyanogenmod 10.1 setup? Thanks for the quick reply!
As long as there is a tar for it, yes. If they have a zip, you can flash from your current custom recovery. Either way nothing will change but kernel and recovery.

I'm running CM9 alpha 4. Just wondering what the best/most recent custom kernel for flashing would be?

i would use the FE22 plus (Plus = unlocked recovery, initd, bootanim, usb-ms, adb-root)
located here
remember to use the EL26 cwm
There's a thread stickied right in the development section that has pretty much every kernel you need. Also the only kernel you should use on cm9 are the cm9 ones. The one listed above will cause the ROM not to boot past the samsung logo.
FE22 latest CM9 kernel here

If im not wrong, you're ment to use FXP's default kernel (CM Kernel) to make CM work. Otherwise using another kernel for CM would give you bootloops.
NOTE: CM is based on its own source-code so thats why you MUST use default CM kernel (not android-sourced kernels).

Hi,
my phone-info states that I have this kernel: 2.6.35.7-perf-CL783107 [email protected]_dev-pc#1
Which one is this? Are there better kernels available? Can I flash a kernel without resetting the phone or whatever? and is a kernel included in an nandroid backup?
I know, a lot of questions about kernels , trying to understand
cheers
you're problably on cm7 or better said cyanmobile.
as cyanmobile is modified cm7, you cant flaah different kernels, just stick to the current one

It's kernel related. You have to find kernel that support higher overclock.

There is various kernels in the Original development thread that support overclock.
Make sure yo read the OP and figure out which is best for you and your phone.

Could be a few issues.
You could be on an old version of JellyBam that does not use the 3.4 kernel. You also could have downloaded the wrong kernel from the page linked. If you could give us your ROM version that would help.
Its 7.5.0
But do u have to flash a kernel with odin

Kernels are flashed in recovery, not Odin. The problem may be the recent display changes in KT's kernel. You may want to check his thread for an earlier build (pre 4/19) before the display commits were added.

correct. flash his 4/11 release.
and if you ever find yourself in a bootloop from flashing the wrong kernel, just flash the correct kernel in recovery. wipe cache/dalvik, fix permissions and reboot. good to go without having to restore or reset anything.
also, i'd stick with ROMs in this forum that are supported by the dev.
Closing this one...as OP has posted duplicate thread here...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2246321
Do i have to have a rom to get a new kernel. Thats the first question the others will be after this one is answered. Thanks in Advance
It really depends if the kernel supports the phone and rom. Most kernels only work if the rom supports that kernel. Take cyanogenmod for example. If you were to flash cm that has stock 3.0 kernel, you can't use the 3.4 kernel or above unless the rom supports it. If you want a more recent kernel then you'd have to flash a rom that supports it.

You need to be rooted with custom recovery to flash a kernel. But, you can use the stock rooted rom. Does that answer?
Also, if you stick with stock rom, or any touchwiz rom, can only use touchwiz kernels. If you want aosp kernels, need to be on an aosp rom.
