I all.
I'm looking for a kernel for my galaxy nexus and i've noticed that most (all?) the latest kernel threads (I'm looking for a currently mantained kernels) are stuck at version 3.0.101 while linux kernel is arrived, today, at 3.19.1.
Now I know that the "android branch" is different than the main one but however I guess there should be newer versions around, like 3.4 or, even better, 3.10.
So, why it's so hard to find a newer version?
Any 3.4/3.10 kernel suggestion?
Thanks a lot.

Hahahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahhahhahahahaha... HA!
Funny... GTFO and read why Gnexus never will have 3.10 and MAYBE REALLY MAYBE we will have 3.4 (1% chance to get it)

Sorry emotions was first [emoji14]
Yes 3.0.101 is latest for Gnex, bsmitty will focus his works on 3.4 when he will get Nexus6 (or he got it already, idk)
Its hard to develop 3.4 for Gnex because of missed drivers from Texas Instruments

As the subject states, whats the major difference between these two roms? I've flashed them both, but being new to this, I don't really see a difference. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Thanks a bunch for that. does the same info apply for the cm10 SGT7 enhancement rom posted by twa_priv? i
Short answer...Yes
thanks again!
Hopefully this will be my last question here...but I am slightly confused with the new "old kernel build" update...I figure its new so its an update, but it says old kernel...should i go with the old kernel build?

Yeah, its proven to work. The new kernel build is experimental and is still getting some bugs worked out.
Thank You

I don't have that phone anymore, but I need to clarify some things:
- Bluetooth LE could be possible. The hardware is 4.0 but Google recertified as 3.0. One posible reason is that it needs a 3.4 kernel but it's not stable for the GNex.
- OpenGL ES 3.0 is hardware dependant. The PowerVR GPU on the GNex is a bit old.
- The 3.0.72 is not that old. In fact is one of the latest of the 3.0.X branch (if I'm not mistaken, the last one for that branch is 3.0.84). Like I said before, a 3.4 kernel is not stable on the phone. Maybe some dev can port it successfully and then enable Bluetooth LE, who knows.
So, there's nothing to complain. In fact, from what I heard, this update gives performance near 4.1.2 with all the features it always had plus the new ones.
This thread it's almost pointless and must be closed or repurpose it to the bugs found on 4.3 and things that are present that you don't like.
Cheers!

Latest is 3.0.86
It's possible to port BLE to 3.0.x but it isn't easy.. :/
Any idea if TRIM is build in on this version or we still have to root and use other programs?

Actually, 3.0.87 is the latest.
Have complaints? Present them to Google or in this thread, since it's about the same issue... and it was created yesterday.

Who made the kernel?
After updating to the latest Mahdi rom and backing up what I had, I flashed the experimental kernel and wiped cache/dalvik.
It wouldn't boot, so I had to restore what I had.
No idea what it was supposed to do.

Yeah, if it said it was for the nexus, it wasn't going to work. Kernels should be device specific, and I am very skeptical of those that have been supposedly ported over, rather than compiled from the device's kernel source and then updated with new options.
Experimental in regards to kernel devevelopment means there are probably issues beyond the norm.

The filename is Mahdi-Hammerhead-exp-4.4.2-v1.7-23-03-2014.zip, but I thought that just meant it was somehow derived from the Nexus 5. Don't know why it would be posted in the Mahdi rom OP if it didn't have a chance of working.
To make myself clear.I said that nexus 5 thing, because the file of the kernel says hammerhead..But everything is fine..I use the rom as it is....I want to thank the dev for this amazing rom..A big thank you to all the devs..All of them have put a lot of work to their projects..I just made a question about this kernel.nothing else..Thanks for the reply..

Was reading about the new experimental Google 3.10 kernel, what would this mean for our device?

Well upgrading the device is the best to get the latest.
But it makes no sense if you want to test a new experimental kernel when the OS will never support it (I mean newer than 3.1, because the hox will not get any big updates anymore)

my daily
Ive been using this as my daily for months now. Only had a few random reboots and some of those are probably related to the fact im undervolting.
I have found the CAF version of the Glitch kernel (not the latest like an older version) to be extrememly stable in use with this rom.
Keep up the top work!

now that i think about it... a CAF wouldnt work would it... re reading the derscription of the kernel it uses some CAF sources (for msm specific stuff or used to anyway) but is built for AOSP (And its not as old as i thought i dont think, i forgot i built it from source on jenkins so its got a different namng convention to the ones in the actual glitch thread). If i can work out which kernel it is i will let you know as it is very stable and i have been using as my daily for months now with this rom.
Running up to 1.89GHz with 50ma (or more) undervolting for each step. only had a few issues initially while i got the undervolts right.
The full CAF kernels did not work at all (sorry i should have though about what i was saying haha!)

android 5 from android 4.4.2
I have a rooted, bootloader unlocked, with TWRP nexus 7 2013 (32gb wifi) running android 4.4.2 but have not installed a custom rom till date. Now if i want to flash a custom rom such as this one (android 5, while my nexus is on 4.4.2), all i have to do is download the rom from the link given in the instructions and flash it via TWRP?. From what i understand from the instructions, it doesnt matter what my tablets kernel number etc is, all i have to do is flash it via TWRP. Or is it that the new kernel is included with the flashable zip file, that i am to download.
Any input or advice is appreciated.
Thanks in advance
