Replace the stock kernel - Honor 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi,
I would like to make a few small modification in the stock kernel.
At this moment I don't want to switch to any custom ROM.
Could you tell me how I can get the official source code (or maybe the OpenKirin will work?) and create a flashable zip?
Thanks

Is this the latest kernel? Currently I'm running kernel 4.1.18-g83d04d8, probably this version is older...
I think I will manage to compile it, is it enough to replace the kernel image on my honor with the compiled one?
I want to have a possibility to revert this change.

[Q] CM10.2 Kernel Choices?

Quick question if I wanted to install for example TripNDroid's kernel on a CM10.2 (4.3) ROM should I repack the kernel to get it to boot. I haven't tried a straight install yet, and the reason I ask this is the Kernel's don't explicitly state support for any AOSP version greater than 4.2.2. I've searched this but can't seem to find an answer.

I repacked XM's kernel for someone to use on cm10.2 and they reported all ok

Try both...if you have a backup you cannot really screw up. You can always restore and flash stock boot.img.
I would recommend a repack to accommodate possible/probable ramdisk changes between 4.2.2 and 4.3.
Lastly, the kernel DOES NOT officially support 4.3 so it may not work at all.
Thanks for the help to both of you I will try the repack if that fails I'll just restore the nandroid or attempt to reflash the CM10.3 boot.img

Hey what's up guys I need your help please.
I modified the latest rom by LiquidSmooth(and it's a KitKat Unofficial ROM for the i9300, no bugs), and I didn't have a computer at the time I was making it, so I modified and did it all through my phone. So what I am asking is, is there any way I can take that ROM I modified and make I flashable ROM out of it, so I can upload it and people can flash it to their own phones?:highfive:

..ask permission to the developer and maybe he can help you with that flashable zip.
Remember that you would need to make sure that it has a meta.inf folder. And also inside the meta.inf folder the updater script is updated to include the files you have included or the files wont flash properly or work.

So, were you ever able to accomplish this? I'm looking at getting an S3 9300 to replace my now-deceased S2 which WAS running another adaptation of KitKat and I got REALLY spoiled by the features of the LiquidSmooth ROM. Would love to see a KitKat LiquidSmooth!
One suggestion, the PhilzTouch CWM (on my S2) had an option to make a flashable .zip file of your current ROM. Maybe give that a try. But to reiterate, you might want to communicate with the LiquidSmooth team to be sure they are ok with that.

I don't there there is a custom ROM for your device. You'd have to develop one yourself. Best off using Xposed framework to make the modifications you want.
Dont change the ROM
Many of the alcatel's are not tested with custom ROMS, i hope 8000d has the better android version. if you really want to change the OS, go for cynagenmod which is tested in many devices.
What is with all of these mediatek device requests? Mediatek doesn't share their source so now good custom roms will come to these phones

Cyanogenmod of Huawei G510 works on the Scribe Easy, but i donĀ“t know how i can install CWM or TWRP

[Q] Can you flash a custom rom to a different Kernel or vice versa?

Im just new to flashing roms and stuff so i have a question
Can you Flash a different Kernel to a different rom?
like for example , i have my Xperia S running on ParanoidAndroid 4.2 Beta 1 and since overclocking is not posible i want to flash a new kernel because i dont want to system reset my phone.
is it posible? Pls help

Yes, it's possible, just flash the kernel you want with cwm without wiping system or data. (Note that the kernel must be compatible with the rom!)

It is possible, but I don't think there is an overclocking kernel for PA yet. Deedwar wants to include it, but hasn't come to it yet. The AOSPA legacy ROMs will definitely not have overclocking though.
Hello @deedwar, @Redstarr1!
While we're on the subject, i was wondering if you could explain to me is it possible to use the boot.img from the newest experimental CM11 build by RaymanFX and use it (flash it) in AOSPA Legacy builds by Deedwar? Considering that the AOSPA legacy builds have cm as a base.
Thank you in advance!

Not this time you cant. He has upgraded a few very key areas that require newer sources that need to be included in the ROM itself. So you will have to wait till i get around to editing the kernel and adding it to my github for AOSPA to build from.

Here you go. Link
@Zayn1 your request is incorrect.
Because kernel is also constituted by custom libraries, residing in /system.
By flashing kernel, you would mess up the device with incompatible libraries.
The solution is much simple: you have to reflash the full rom from recovery.
Both kernel and system libraries will be replaced with official ones.
