This is one of those n00b questions that probably seems obvious but isn't, at least for me.
One can safely assume a kernel that says it is for CM7 or CM9 will work with ROMs with those names. But what about ROMs based on stock, like DarkForest 3.0.5 or the UK ROM? It's not quite as clear to me and I didn't see that info in the ROMs where I would expect it to be.

DoomLord or Darkforest (stock based, it's a few pages back in dev forum) or stock (flash via ftf) for stock based (darkforest 3/cola/IT-Rom/gbtweaked/r800x UK). Kernel associated with rom for others.

So ROMS should indicate whether they are based on Stock or not, and they should indicate the kernal, shouldn't they?
Also, I think one can also say, if you want to be on the bleeding edge of technology, go with CM9 or maybe CM7. If you want to use your Play to play videos, games that use video cutscenes, etc, stick with a Stock-based ROM. (At this point in development, anyway.)
And, Pax, Am I also correct in assuming when FXP puts up a new build, as they just did, I will want to hold off until Chevyowner updates his link, or is there a way for me to keep the CDMA functionality using other builds?
BTW - CM9 is awesome!
If I ever get around to creating an update.zip, we might have a flashable porting zip for CDMA on CM9

That would be sweet!
The Darkforest kernel links are all outdated so that is a no-go. I installed DoomLord's kernel without a problem, but I can't get into recovery on it, tried back button, volume down, volume up, home, search... nothing.
Just flashed back to stock with the ftf file and installed the doomkernel again - boots ok into Stock now, so that's something. However, I understand that this kernel is harder on the battery use than Keiran's.
The learning continues! Now to figure out how to get recovery on it and how to get in it!.

1) Create the file structure and fill it with the files you want to use.
2) Write the updater script.
3) sign it with testsign.jar.
4) Flash it.
That's how you basically create an update.zip. The really boney part is the updater script, in which you have to figure out the correct permissions, symlinks and other stuff, and/or run the scripts you want to have working.

I recently flashed Doomkernel v11 on my stock rom then flashed the wifi modules and everything is fine. When Doomkernel logo appears on boot, that is the time the LED turns to blue and I just pressed "back" key on my xplay and it boot into Doomkernel's boot manager. However, I also installed CWM 5.0.2.7 for Xperia phones just to be sure. Lastly, it really is a bit of hard battery in the battery but it is fast and stable. Btw, I am using T.E.A.M. rom as of now and it is also fast and stable.

He's on the R800x, I haven't tested out doomkernel v11 (i know doomkernel v10 gsm had an issue with DHCP on R800x) and T.E.A.M. rom is currently not working on R800x (we've been having baseband issues with porting any of the 4.xxx firmware to Xperia Play)

Completely understandable, this thread started as a R800x focused one, but with Logseman no longer updating the Guide/Rollup thread, we do need a new on focused on matching kernels with Roms...

Hi, I have a few noob questions as well:
1. Does a custom ROM like CM7 or Lite'ning have their own kernel ? When I flash them, the kernel I have now (CF-ROOT) gets replaced ?
2. How do I know to match a kernel to a ROM ?

And thus we return to the original question!
I have since found that the best way to know which kernel to use with a ROM is to read through the thread for the ROM you are interested in. If a ROM is based on stock, then look for kernels based on stock, etc.
Also some ROMs package a kernel to be used with them in the zip file. It's always a good choice when you want to try a ROM and you aren't sure what kernel to use.

Because you're using GB and not ICS, which most mods are based on these days, so update to ICS and try again.

i have seen videos on how to update via flash tool but its kinda complicated and still have to flash kernels, is there any other way or an easy way to update my arc? sorry bro for i have so many questions and still i have more.
what rom for GB do u suggest i use for my arc?
Flashing a stock ftf also flashes the included kernel. If you're still struggling with video tutorials or guides then someone else will have to assist as I'm not here to spoon feed for the reason stated in the second line of my guide.

You cant use ICS mods with a GB kernel.

at last my perseverance paid off, lots of reading, searching, downloading and bookmarking and trial and error and came to the point that i almost bricked my ARC. i am now on android 4.0.4 BB-77 with Advanced stock kernel, build# .587 running on xperia ultimate HD 2.0
heres my screenshot.
BTW if there is someone still a noob like me in flashing heres the simplest vid that i found and it work for me, you should have all drivers installed on your pc
do not release the back button until flashing is finished and not all back button are on the right side as seen on flashtool

Itcan be done but with various patches in ramdisk (but not everything woring 100%). I had a kernel on my PLAY for GB ICS and JB but compared to say a GB specific kernel or ICS specific kernel performance decreased.
So to anwser the OP's question. Yes its possible but using a specific kernel for that specific android is much better.

I've been trying to switch from jellybean back to GB. But every time I flash another kernel no matter which one I get a blank screen with only the backlight when I turn on the phone. Not even the kernel image or boot animation show up just a backlight. I've tried every kernel I could possibly find as well as flashing stock ft for my r800x. The only kernel that works with the screen is lupus jb v13. The weird thing is lupus v8 doesn't eben work nor turbo kernel. Lupus jb v13 is the only one that does. I wsd thinking it was a hardware problem but not sure because lupus jb v13 works fine except for when I slide open game pad I have to shut screen off and on for image to show up. Its been like this for a couple days and I finally decided I need help . So if you have any suggestions please help me. Thank you for reading my really long desperate plead for help

Just an idea, is it any command in build.prop to disable autobrightness? So you can change rom before flashing.
Or if you know how to blindly flash a rom (positions in cwr, name folder on sd card "AAA" so it can be first in the list).
Or maybe program on pc that can take screenshots so you can somehow disable autobrightness...
But it's probably hardware fault...

-try to flash kernel with opened gamepad
-flash kernel, turn off phone, pull out battery, try to turn on after 10 minutes
-boot into (jb) rom, from flashtool, select "boot into fastboot via adb"
-flash kernel only when the Moon is in 30 degree angle between Sun and Earth lol
Sorry man, i am getting out of ideas
im going to try everything you suggested except for the last one lol. I think if none of those work i might just give up. But does anyone know if kernel affects backlight in any way because thats the problem. With other kernels the backlight is off so even highering brightness doesnt help. But with the other two kernels fxp and lupus v13 it works fine. When i flashed lupus jb v8 after fxp cm 10 kernel last time it worked. I tried the same thing again but without any results
is it possible to do this on the Xperia Arc S?
I mean stock roms of sony of course, no need for custom roms.
is this done by booting from the SD card?
Thanks for the support!
It's not possible to do so. Booting can be done from the SD Card but both firmwares use different kernels, so unless you can make GB run on an ICS kernel it will be nigh impossible to do it, not to mention the time needed to make it happen.

But why do you insist on using GB? Most JB and KK ROMs are stable enough for daily use, and some ICS ROMs to a certain extent.

If I am not mistaken, LuPuS ICS kernel can boot both GB and ICS.

I want to test my apps on a single device that has GB and ICS rather than getting and older device with GB.

Is there a way to dual boot both then with that kernel? A guide by someone who did it maybe?

I am not familiar with that, you can try looking around on the forum. If there isn't anything, then no one has tried yet. I don't know myself, how it is supposed to work.

well it needs some work to make that thing possible on lupus gb/ics
you need to make a muflti boot kernel using cosmicdan source and some thing from here and there and using lupus gb/ics as your zimage
im not familiar with kernel things but im sure that it's easier than before because of turbo kernel (the hard thing is finished before)
also you can port turbo kernel to arc
that is alittle easier because comsicdan has done some of the optimizations for arc before
but in turbo kernel gb support in not finished but you can test your apps with it atleast
