I am looking for a kernel which has no or very little disturbance on the Touchpad
Best for the stock rom 2.3.4 4.0.2.a.0.42
It's not the kernel which affects the touchpads, it's the ROM.
DooMLoRD or KeiranFTW's kernels will work fine
Your question's very broad with little detail anyway,
DoomLord kas provided kernels for latest .42 version and older ones, also for CM7, GSM, WDCMA, r800x, etc., please search the Android development thread. Keiran also has some of his own spice of Kernels, you need to read mate
If yours is GSM version of R800i like mine, best is DoomLord's version 8.

Hey guys,
New to Installing Custom Kernels/ROMS onto the Xperia Play but not new to flashing in general. So I do have a few questions.
As I have an Unlocked bootloader which I have of course unlocked I am looking for CWM and a Good ROM to use. So my questions are as follows
1. Where can I get hold of the latest and fully functional CWM for the Play ? I heard Doomlord has a Touch screen version ?
2. What ROM would you reccomend for performance but full functionality ? I am personally looking more so towards Doomlords work. I am looking for a ROM to tide me over until the Custom ICS Roms are at a more stable point. I would though want a ROM that does not force an Overclock, I currently want to stay at stock CPU.
I already have the latest Flashtool Oh and I have the R800i
I look forward to your guys response, I love the Play and love the Play section on XDA, Really active!
I think since you are so keen towards the ICS thingy...hence DarkForest ROM by KeiranFTW- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1388166 will be suitable for you..(check for the screens on the 2nd page)
As for CWM for your unlocked bootloader http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390771 (though it says for locked bootloaders, but since its based on just flashing it, hence should suffice)
for rest of the tweaks & other modifications http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1294129 thanks to Logseman
cheers!
Thanks I will take a look at them, I was keen also on Darklords ROM here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1176502
But I just need to find out if its a Pre OC ROM or if I set the OC later as I would prefer to flash a Stock CPU rom to avoid damaging my phone.
Just get SetCPU, then you can change the overclock yourself, i.e. return it to stock settings if a custom ROM has changed it

Hello, I'm new to the custom kernel and ROMs. Been looking to install new ROM to my arc s with the loop device ability to install UBUNTU. which one should I pick ( doomkernel or CM7 or another one ).
Now - what is the difference between the stock and those two? Would I lose something and the most important thing - can I go back to the stock kernel and how exactly?
Now before ou ask me to google it or search your forum - I've been googling and searching the forum but can't find explicit answers to those 2 questions so I will be grateful for any explanation.
Thanks,
Romand
You get oc and more without losing anything.

Hi, I like to know which kernels suit best for me.
important:
ClockworkMod Recovery in a recent version (at least 5.0.2.7)
nice to have:
ext4 support
additional govenors (such as smartass/smartass2)
I was interested in a DooMLord Kernel. Then I just saw a thread about a GB kernel. In a survey I read there's a doomlord kernel also for ICS. Can you provide me with a link?
the stock kernel with CWM I already tried and it has a slightly outdated CWM. So maybe someone could stab me in the right direction
The "development" section perhaps.

Hey folks,
I've been looking to overclock my Xperia Arc (runnin ICS 4.0.4, build: 4.1.B.0.587) and I'm quite the noob at this so I'm looking for answers and advice. From what I gather, I need to install a kernel and I hear there are many options. One of the most popular one seem to be DooMKernel. I'm thinking about using that and I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520654
Now, my question is, is that the most updated thread? Is there a newer updated DooMKernel lying around (that is newer than v5)? It's fairly difficult to navigate the forums and so I have a hard time finding all the right posts.
My next question is, if I were to install CyanogenMod, does it install a new kernel that allows me to overclock or is OS separate from the kernel?
And also, feel free to recommend me any other kernels. Are they all pretty much the same or do some of them have particular enhancements?
Thanks in advance!

1. The Doomkernel you linked have problem with some battery drainage, thanks to not using newest kernel sources (if I remember correctly?) and also that Doomlord haven't updated it at a long time so. Look for some other kernels before that one becomes stable enough!
2. The Cyanogenmod ROM requires it own specially developed kernel which can be found in the zip package of each initial release (CM7 - CM9 - CM10) and it have to be flashed through Fastboot before you are flashing the ROM in recovery. Follow instructions on Cyanogenmod homepage for each installation on your prefered device for more info!
3. If you're on Gingerbread, use Doomlord v22, for some amazing performance / battery and a lot of functions (underclocking, undervolting and some other stuff).
If you're on ICS, use latest Lupus kernel (version 8) - that kernel is a beast in every way and you'll definitely like it, it's stable enough to satisfy even you!
It's some difference between the kernels in speed, stability and performance / smoothness / battery life / functions, yes. You have to check them out yourself to find your own favourite.
Hope my answers helped you!

Awesome response, very helpful. Just one more question, do the CyanogenMod kernels have overclocking capabilities? Thanks for the reply, much appreciated!

Yup, CM kernels was created with overclocking and extended performance in mind, hence why Cyanogenmod ROMs are known with expanding the possibilities to some crazy ass performance and level boost (I have only tried CM7 and using it was like driving an Ferrari at 220 km/hour, later versions should be equal in their own specific ways).
Hope you got some useful answer on your question, dude!

I can recommend Sega Rush v3 kernel to use with your currrent or any .587 based custom rom, it can if you so wished be used up to 2ghz,( as could Doomlords V5 ), but be warned and advised to tread carefull with overclocking as you can cause permanent heat damage to, and even kill your phone if you overcook it.
I think the links to Doomlords v5 are down at the moment he is not active with it, so you may struggle to find doomkernel v5 to download, however if you look to the credits in the latest release of Sega v3, you will see him mentioned, take that as a good omen.
PS there are plenty of kernels to choose from, but I would say try to use one that is currently under active development, so that any upgrades / improvements are kept constant.
I can't comment on Cyanogenmods never tried any, but they seem popular enough, and look pretty well supported.You really are spoilt for choice, have fun
