I'm not new to the rooting seen at all, but I am new to the M8. I know Sense kernels go with Sense and GPE with GPE. My question is I don't see any AOSP or CM kernels. So are GPE kernels compatible with CM or AOSP? I'm having trouble understanding the kernels. Thanks in advance.

Do all kernells work with all roms???
an does this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682419
work with the rom:RCMixHD
No,ASOP kernels are for ASOP roms like Oxygen,CM7,DeFrost (= non-Sense UI ROMs) and Sense kernels are for ROMs with Sense UI. RCMix is Sense ROM. No shure about that kernel,but it seems like krenel for non-Sense ROMs.
asop kernels work for roms like cm7, redux, ginervillian etc. senmse kernels work for sense roms like leedroid 2.2. rcsmixhd is a 2.3.3 gingersense rom which needs a gingersense kernel. so far, there is only the leaked gingersense kernel. thats it thats all. youll have 2 wait until the official kernel source code is released b4 they can creaate custom overclocked undervolted kernels
Sorry to interfear in Ts's topic, but i thought my question is somewhat realated.
Are the kernals included in the roms. or do you have to flash a apropriat kernal yourselve?
Same question goes for radio and i flashed a wifi N thingy my previous rom advised. do i have to undo those things before installing a new rom?
lnodder: custom ROMs include kernels already, but you always have the option of flashing a differenet kernel. Be careful to distinguish what kind of kernel you're flashing vis-a-vis what ROM you have (Sense, non-Sense, etc)
Radios by and large don't need to be flashed/reflashed if they're working fine. Flashing radios improperly is one of the biggest causes of bricked cellphones.
Okay thnx for the info.
But in case of an update from froyo to gingerbread. you do need to update the radio?
At least here the dev. states "Requirement:
Latest Radio 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08"

So what kernels are available for this device that are actually updated once in a while?
I'm looking for Paranoid Android/CM11 kernels or what is better known as AOSP KK.

The kernels are found in Original Android Development and the Unified Development section. The OP will tell you if the kernel is for TouchWiz, CM, or GPE ROMs; and if the kernel happens to have different versions of the same kernel for each CM, TW, and GPE it will list that also. Just check when the OP was last updated to know when the last time the kernel has been updated.
Hello there
4.4.4 has been out for a while now on a couple of custom ROMs but unfortunately I cannot seem to find any custom kernels that support it. I looked in both the Android Development and Original Android Development sections but the latest I could find were for 4.4.3.
The reason I am asking is because I would like to install MultiROM but it requires kernels with kexec-hardboot patch, like ElementalX and such. I am currently running the latest Android Revolution HD 20.1 4.4.4 which I assume has a stock kernel?
Can anyone please help and/or point me in the right direction? Would it be possible to install kernels based on 4.4.3 if 4.4.4 ROMs are still using an older kernel or would I just have to wait?
Thanks1

No custom kernels exist yet for Sense 4.4.4. Custom kernels require access to the kernel code, and that is yet to be released yet by HTC. Unfortunately, those who have tried 4.4.3 kernels on 4.4.4 roms have ended up with bootloops.
Yeah.. bootloops is what I was afraid would happen. Thanks for your information, cr1960, I appreciate it.
Is it possible to build 4.4.4 for the m8 from aosp, without basing off the code from a custom rom like cm11 or PA?
Why not? They did it. ?
Gotta be an expert chef tho.
I know, I've tried looking it up but I can only find guides for aosp-based roms
Well, it's a pretty well known fact how many advantages are there for new custom roms which are either based on AOSP or CM.
But what are the disadvantages of these roms?
What are the things I would be missing out if I moved from stock based roms to either AOSP or CM?
