I know that we can't use roms like carbonrom with locked a bootloader because of the custom kernel involved, but in a case like Carbon what would the possibility of using a stock kernel be?
Would it be the same rom with no OC settings?
Sorry if its a dumb question, I'm just a little pissed off at this locked BL thing haha

Was that a serious answer?
To simplify:
Q. "What kernel should I use"
A. "Use one of the kernels"
That's essentially what you just said.
@OP Use either the standard kernel that comes in the .rar (called boot.img) OR use the mjolnir kernel. (I'm talking about CM9 only here).
I'm using boot.img inside the zip of rom. Thanks!

I experience very high batterydrain in CM 7.2 RC 2 ....
I lost battery from 100% to 38% in just 1 night!!! Wifi etc. are off, just stupid 2G.
Any idea why that is happend? I reflashed the rom, to be sure everything is correct, but nothing has changed...
please help me!
PS: i am using the stock Cm 7 kernel...
Hey guys, after searching several thread about Good Battery life Kernel, i concluded that Cow kernel is the saver one. Is it right?. And, Is my Bagux ROM suitable for Cow Kernel?.

Any custom kernel should be compatible with any custom rom, as long as the Android version is correct.
Ya..

Yup, or a stock, whatever you prefer flashing. To prevent bootloop/brick make sure you flash a kernel that supports your android version and read the rom's posts to see if it works completely with the kernel. Had a problem with the JB kernel and our JB MIUI, home kept foceclosing and such, but coliv_aja fixed it and posted a compatible version for the rom.
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.

Hi
I picked up a newn AT&T Ion on Craigslist for $75. A real nice device. I am pleasantly surprised. Perfect size and very smooth with ICS.
I've looked around and initially thought it couldn't be rooted; however I've seen a couple of threads contradicting that.
Can someone tell me if I can root?
Thanks

You can root with Eroot (search) but you cannot unlock the bootloader.
Unlocking is needed to load custom kernels then?

Exactly.
Therefore, you can only flash custom ROMs that is based on stock ROM.
Is that any rom in the ion section? If not then how do i tell which custom roms based on stock i can flash? Thanks

1. No custom kernel for locked bl.
2. Usually the ROM thread will tell you if this ROM is based on stock ROM or CM or AOSP or whatever.
Most stock-based ROMs are locked bl friendly unless otherwise stated.
Could someone explain to me why and in which aspect the baseband underlying a custom ROM is important?
I can understand it in that way, that the stock ROMs have had different RAM sizes and therefore the size for the custom ROM would be different, but beside that?
After a certain version AFAIR they all had 624 MB RAM.
So why is there e.g. a recommendation of MH1 (or is it already MH2) for CM 10.1 Canjica?

i guess some of dev use certain baseband when they build that custum ROM, if we use the same basebabd that the dev use, we know that custumROM will work at least like what dev expect CMIIW
I guess its cuz for new firmwares u need new basebands. Newer basebands are better too, cuz they have more 3G/2G speed so... why do u want an old baseband if its worse? As an Ascend G300 I gotta say that there's a small chance doing a multibaseband ROM. But, as I said, the last baseband is the best.
Hope it helped u guyz
Easy answer:
For a new base band I would have to flash a new stock firmware and therefore would probably loose all apps and settings...
But you are hopefully right in that point... that the newer the better...
So next time I flash my ROM, I will use mh1 as a base.
