Kernel questions - OnePlus 5T Questions & Answers

So I've been reading about kernel flashing on the op5t n im seeing tht to switch kernels u should dirty flash the stock rom b4 flashing the new kernel then reflash magisk to keep from any issues on oos. Does this apply if im flashing a new\switching kernels on a custom rom as well? Like i should still be dirty flashing the oos rom to switch kernels even if im on lineage? Or do i dirty flash lineage in tht case? If someone could please clarify the process id really appreciate it as everything i can find is all about oos based kernel switching not about if ur on a custom rom going from one kernel to another

You should dirty flash lineage and then flash the kernel because if you flash a kernel on another kernel it may cause issues

Ok cool so its just tht you need to revert any changes made to \boot... So basically i only need to reflash magisk after doing the dirty flash of the rom on oos based roms then correct?

The incremental update is not the full ROM, they're just small updates for phones already running the ROM. The full ROM will be about ~100+ MB. Also, you will need to have an unlocked boot loader and a custom recovery. Once you have that knocked out just Download the ROM and put it in your SD card. Make sure you wipe all data after you make a backup of your current ROM. Finally, Flash the ZIP and reboot your phone. One more thing, with the CM9 ROM, you need to download the ICS GAPPS so you have the Market and etc. Enjoy.

I know that I said I know how to flash and I just want to know step by step on flashing incremental I have the full rom and I have everything ready but I don't get the part about stocks kernel? I know what kernel is I just want to know what he means by stocked kernel as in the sence kernel or a different kernel
The stock kernel is the kernel included with the rom. If you have flashed a different kernel you must find out which kernel was included with the version of cm9 you are running and download to SD card, then flash. Then flash incremental. Also do not skip incremental. Flash in order of date after your rom download. Example rom- 6272012 incremental-6282012.
I feel more like I do now then I did then.

Try out the Mason kernels and see how they treat you. I think the JMZ CM9 Kernel is the Mason kernel. Also, look for the unreleased Mason kernels as they might include new performance fixes and possibly hardware fixes. I heard a rumor of WiMAX hitting CM9.

JMZ stated that if you flash a custom kernel after flashing a nightly ROM you will need to flash the SAME custom kernel after flashing the incrementals I believe he has gone back to the evervolv kernel on latest ROMS for compatibility issues

[Q] Can Any Kernel Work With Any Rom?

Hi I am new to rom and kernel flashing, and I am interested in flashing the ElementalX 1.1 kernel on AOKP. I love AOKP, and I am way interested in the swipe-to-wake and double-tap-to-wake features of ElementalX 1.1.
What kinds of things do I need to know about compatibility between kernels and Roms? Can you typically use any kernel with any rom?
Loving the Nexus experience and looking forward to learning more!
They often can but not always.
Android versions need to match.
Usually you can flash any kernel on any ROMs but if its a CM based ROM and you flash a custom kernel then slimport features sometimes don't work or some times you flash a custom kernel then the boot animation gets cut and turns black it doesn't really matter I have done lots of flashing and I would say that every kernel can be a flashed with any ROM without problems I am currently on CM kang and using kernel elemental x and everything runs smooth..hope this help click thankksss
Don't just slap any kernel to your device you might seriously brick it.....learned this lesson when I had an Atrix4G.....

Nexus devices are different then the Atrix4G. You can not seriously brick it by flashing an incompatible kernel. Even having no kernel will not prevent you from accessing the bootloader and recovery.

[Q] Quick questions on installing a new kernel

I want to install blackhawks kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2439564) but I've never installed just a kernel before.
I found a thread saying to install using a recovery, but I just wanted to make sure I was doing it right.
- Do you just flash it like a ROM?
- Can I flash a new kernel over a compatible ROM, or do I need to flash the kernel then the ROM?
I have a 210R and I'm going to use SvelteNole (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2722582)
ANY advice is appreciated!
First you flash a recovery,reboot to the new recovery,flash the new Rom,reboot to the new Rom,reboot again to the recovery and then flash the new Kernel. I have SvelteNole with blackhawks kernel !!!
You can flash the rom and kernel during the same session in recovery. Rom first, kernel second.

Thanks for the help, guys! Can't wait to try your ROM, gr8nole. =)

[Q] I'm considering trying Franco kernel, what do I need to know?

I'm using PA 4.6b1 on my OnePlus One. I'm considering trying out Franco kernel, but I've never used a custom kernel before. How will this effect me when it comes time to update PA on my device? Will I just get the OTA update and then re-install the custom kernel? Or is it more complex than that?
Every ROM flash over writes the kernel. You can just flash your new kernel along with your ota, in the ota app

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.
