Best advice for you better not to try things if your not sure because if you mess it up then it would be over. before you try something then you should KNOW the DO's and DONT's and you should know how to go back or FIX the problem at anytime.
well...there's FAQ thread here. we should ask any question there, not here. maybe you've seen that there're lot of user who didn't obey it. this is because they want to get a quick responses for their post. nevertheless, most of more experienced user will ignore this kind of post. there's no point asking a question here if you need an answer for an expert.
btw, I'll try to answer your question. kernel is a part of os which used by the program (or OS) to communicate with the hardware or the reverse. it also used to boot up and load the OS to the computer (or device). it controlling the app and the hardware behaviour and setting. the structure is kind of like this.
programs<-->kernel<-->hardware
for an instance, when you use a music player, the music player is transmit the digital data to the kernel, then the kernel send the data to speaker as analog data. the same principal works for another app. you'll need googles help if you want to know much more about kernel.
So can i change kernel on my stock rom dxlc1?can i use maroc?

I don't think there are serious bugs if you flashed it on stock rom. For me it's quite stable to use for normal usage. use the latest version
What does it do ?
Are you using it now sir? im not sure if ill use it i dont know how it works.
What do you mean? Im using sd partition and link2sd. so it causes error if i use them ?
BTW bro off topic . when im using link 2sd. and im moving installed apps, and when i install new apps. i check the automatic link? whats the meaning of that linking. thanks

hey adi_pat,what say abt a little bit of company from me,eh?
Bring it on! One of my best fellow devs!
I got compiled zImage and modules, but I am not getting this initramfs thing.. Its usually built into zImage..
EDIT: Someone please test the compiled zImage and let me know
PS: Its a plain compiled kernel, let me know if it is booting.
Hello, i saw that you guys got source and thought that maybe an article on the XDA Portal would help get you guys some more dev support.

Downloaded the test kernel but I can only test and give feedback in next 9 hrs when I'm at home
Meantime, any info what we can expect from the test kernel ? Or you want to know if it boots ok ?

I didn't no, but then again I'm not looking to port a kernel, so try asking your question in the section that's there to help, or read the material that's freely available using google (like I just did to see what's available) to help with your quest.

I cant find any tutorial on how to potr kernels. So Im asking it in a thread.
Sorry if I posted in wrong place, but no subforum for the Pro.
Hi! Developing kernels is way to different than just porting ROMs. Also you don't port kernels you develop them from scratch. There's no way to port a kernel into another device.
Here's a very2 basic tutorial on building kernel for Xperia but you still won't understand it without proper knowledge.
http://developer.sonymobile.com/wp/2011/05/06/how-to-build-a-linux-kernel/
Here's the source code.
http://dl-www.sonymobile.com/cws/download/1/105/457/8/1339505718/4_1_B_0_431_tar.bz2
Take note that source code doesn't contain any modifications compiling that right away would just leave you a replica of stock kernel without overclocking, volting, tweaks etc.
Kernel development is a critical part of android customization and anyone is not recommended to play with it even for average developers. It could harm your device to the point that it would burn out or explode.

My point was to try asking in the section dedicated to Android development, as you'll probably get better help or pointers than you will by posting it here, and if you've not found anything at all in regards to kernel building/porting then you're obviously not using google correctly.

WoW Riyal, who is this guy I see you everwhere, are you the BEST android developper???
Can u PLZZZ make Arc knight kernel for Xperia Pro ??? I have some money to donate if u want, or help me do and answering questions / problems im facing.
PLz reply thanks!
I'm not the best android developer in fact I am not an android developer.
I am a server administrator and a programmer and it's just I am also a linux kernel developer.
It just so happens that I am the only and sole android kernel developer which is this active for Xperia Pro. If you don't trust me feel free to approach any other developers like FXP and cross fingers that he would reply to you.
I'll try to look for any arc night sources if I found one I'll guide you if not then try ask the creator of arcnight for it's sources then I'll help you.
Ok here's a quick tutorial. I am not good at teaching things so I hope you understand that. I would also assume you have at least basic knowledge with linux and compiling stuff. If not then learn it first before proceeding.
1st.
You must have a linux machine. No windows only linux.
2nd.
download arcnight kernel sources here.
https://github.com/Jimbo77/Arc-Night-Kernel--4.1.C.0.7-/zipball/master
3rd.
go to kernel/arch/arm/configs/
You should be able to see lot's of config files there just pick these 2.
ArcKnight_defconfig
semc_iyokan_defconfig
4th.
Now compare both files make sure that everything in semc_iyokan_defconfig should be also in ArcKnight_defconfig
Ex. if a config in arcKnight says
# CONFIG_MACH_SEMC_IYOKAN is not set
while config in semc_iyokan_defconfig says
CONFIG_MACH_SEMC_IYOKAN=y
Then change arcknight's config and match it with iyokan's
5th.
Download eabi here.
https://sourcery.mentor.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/[email protected]=lite
6th
follow everything in here.
http://developer.sonymobile.com/wp/2011/05/06/how-to-build-a-linux-kernel/
7th.
in the line
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/arm-2010q1/bin/arm-none-eabi- make semc_zeus_defconfig

Click to collapse
on sony's dev page change it instead to
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/arm-2010q1/bin/arm-none-eabi- make ArcKnight_defconfig
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Done.
Note that I am not responsible if you brick your device. You are using a kernel made for Arc/Arc S and also I am not the developer of that kernel to assure you that it doesn't have any changes which would affect any specific device in any way.
I started and understand the setup etc. but not part 6, when I run terminal and type ''cd kernel'' it says
bash: cd: kernel: File or map doesnt exist

Hi,
Greetings to all,I have been trying to get my hands dirty (learn a thing or two on ROM development) for a very very long time but never had the courage to take the plunge !
Finally I have decided to do it albeit a safer way,I have tried to port latest LEWAOS to Arc using the porting tool by Abinav2. I also tried others but kept getting one or the other errors.
Have taken the CM10 Nightly and the latest Lewa OS5 for the job and the result was successful to a large extent, The ROM installs fine but won't go past initial boot logo,There is no Boot Loop ! Its simply stuck at starting logo.
Have tried multiple kernels and tried to redo the ROM many times but no joy,One more interesting thing I noticed is in Lewa there is no init.d in etc folder,so how does one deal with it ??
So I finally decided to post it here to ask for some guidance and to check whether someone can actually boot into it.
Here's the ROM LewaXperia
PS: This is my first post on development front so please be gentle and Mods if this is not okay than please do let me know before you take any actions or suggest the right thing to do.
Regards.
Hi,
Guys can anyone please reply ? Did anyone of you try it ?? Results ??

Thanks a lot for the help !! I really Am trying to make it work,But its just not happening.
I tried to change bootclasspath as suggested by you but there is no init.rc in both the ROM's !! So what Am I supposed to do now ? In the extracted folder there is sbin (folder),logo.rle and init,Thats all there are no other file or folder like your video shows.

First off you posted in the wrong section. All questions, help and troubleshooting issues should be posted in the Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting sections. You posted in the sacred section of development where only developers should me making threads. Also you need to wait 24 hours before bumping your thread if unanswered.

That was the dumbest answer, u don't need to learn Java first, lol. Hines u can learn Java in the process. This guide is all u need to build, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nathanchance/Android-Tools/master/Guides/Building_AOSP.txt.
You have to sync the CAF Branch for 5T on whatever ROM you choose. I didn't Know first thing about building, and this guide got me successful build. If u fillow the guide toul have zero issues.

The link you posted doesn't work but it was simple to find an alternative on Google. I've always wondered how to build a ROM so it was interesting to look at, maybe I'll give it a shot sometime one I get Linux dual-booting on my laptop. Thanks!

haha if you look at the URL there is a " . " on the end that shouldn't be there. If you cant solve that simple problem I wouldn't recommend getting into building roms since that is 90% problem solving and you do need some knowledge about basic stuff.
