[Q] 4.4 Roms won't boot with Franco Kernel - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I've tried several 4.4 ROMs with Franco's latest kernel (r394 I believe) and they will not boot. I can run Dirty V and Tiny with no issues. Is this just me?

Latest is r395 and works properly.
In other news, official r394 won't boot on 4.4.x ROMs, but @osm0sis 's modified version will.
Sent from Google Nexus 4 @ CM11

Yeah r395 is the latest and greatest, and works fine, just choose wisely: http://franciscofranco.minooch.com/GalaxyNexus/

Thanks guys. That makes sense. I have the paid version of the app and r395 is there now.

Use the optimized stock kernel that comes with CM 10.1 or try them all until you find one you like.
Most kernels work very well with CM 10.1
Try AK kernel, it's very stable and fast and always updated to the latest. You can flash it in recovery.

I think Fancy kernel is better.
I use Franco Kernel and I'm satisfied with it

I am not responsible if your gnex turns into a apple.

MIUI English
MIUI Android
Note: There are two MIUI builds available for our Gnex
1) Official MIUI builds &
2) Official MIUI-Android (serving International Unofficial MIUI ROM Support since 2010).
Both are updated regularly on Fridays, There is not much difference in two builds.

2) Reboot into recovery(CWM or TWRP or Phillz)
3)wipe data/cache
4)wipe dalvik cache
5)format/system
6)install ROM
7) reboot system it is must,Do NOT flash ROM and GAPPS back to back! It will cause Home button not working..!
(Also If you are gonna use Mpokang 1080p kernel then flash the zip just after this step i.e.after flashing ROM without rebooting)

I recommend you to use Mpokang because it can be configured through Trickster MOD App and also it is battery friendly and stable.

Battery life is way better and antutu score 10500 vs 11500 [purity/franco].

on which kernel you are??
the lags are mostly because of kernels
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium HD app
As per MIUI Android community,
there will be no daily or weekly update in this week as there in China they are having national holiday,
the weekly update will resume from 11th October....
till that the last 3.9.27 is stable enough for daily use.

[Q] current rom

now which rom u use and which rom u flash next
Stock ROM+Xposed Framework+Gravity+francos kernel, gives me pretty much all I need and want. That being said, I do plan on installing MultiROM and trying this out.

Stock ROM rooted with xposed framework, root and everything. Seems like it's the most stable ROM, but I'm going to try CM11 for the extra features !

Scrosler's clean rom 2.6. I'll probably flash cleanrom 2.7 when it comes out, as clearnrom suits my needs.

+1, and I have Elementalx 2.4 with minumal tweaks.
OmniRom as they are a new team with some good ideas like multi window however currently not implement of their official nightly builds. Also has opendelta which is an ota with a twist. Trying it out so far so good and stable running ART.

Also I'd like to say they seem to have a lot more activity on their gerrit than say PA, which translates to a more enjoyable testing experience (at least for me) due to more changes in nightlies.
Mahdi ROM for nexus 4, will probably stick to this or purity until carbon release their 4.4 ROM

SlimRom 4.4.2. build 2.6 with ElementalX 2.6 kernel.
Everything is working smoothly, the only feature i miss is keyboard arrows buttons in navigation bar when typing.

[Q]Can I flash a new ROM while I have a custom kernel installed?

So guys. I've installed CyanogenMod 10.1
Swapped memory seats with a modified vold.fstab
And installed the stone kernel.
I want to install CyanogenMod 10.2 or CyanogenMod 11 or OmniRom but I'm pretty unsure if I'm gonna get bricked. The main question is. is it safe to flash a custom Rom while you have a custom kernel installed?. Thanks.

Yes, you can insatall any one ROM that you like Every ROM contains its kernel and when you install ROM you also install new kernel.
You can flash any other kernels but this in ROM is optimized for it.

Mostly correct, but some cases are troubling (most notably installing 4.3.x over 4.4) so if it rejects known good ZIPs try flashing them over stock kernel+cwm6.zip
Anyway it's better to not change kernel from custom ROM's because they are good enough

Nexus 7 2013 Installed Franco Kernel Bootloop

Hello, I have got a Nexus 7 2013 unlocked bootloader, rooted and running CyanogenMod 12.1 nightly. Recently I have tryed to install the Franco Kernel since i have heard a lot of good things about it, but whenever i do, it reboots into a very laggy CyanogenMod 12.1 boot animation and goes into a bootloop. I have tried installing through recovery and through the non pro version of the Franco Kernel app. The only way i could fix it is by installing the CyanogenMod 12.1 ROM again. Any help would be much appreciated

That's because the kernel isn't compatible with cm12, cm and stock are built in a different way and a cm kernel is not compatible with stock and vice versa..
If you ever see a laggy bootanimation after flashing a kernel you can be 99,9% sure that it is not compatible with your rom

Do you know of any kernels compatible with CyanogenMod 12.1. Thanks in advance
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Forums
Use the CAF version of a kernel for CM or CM-based roms. Use AOSP for stock or aosp-based roms.
Franco doesn't have a caf version but most of the other kernels do.
