[KERNEL] 2.6.32.15-g3a8614e [email protected] #7

Why nobody has made this up yet is beyond me. I tried searching and it doesn't seem anyone has released the new HTC kernel by itself, only packaged in a ROM.
So here you all go.
A couple points of interest: (READ EVERYTHING)
This will overwrite your /system/build.prop as some values have changed for the new kernel. I am too lazy right now to write a script to only make the needed changes.
If you have tweaked your density, it will be reverted to stock.
Your ROM version will also show as "Mixed 2.6.32.15" in settings / about / software.
If you flash anything after this that modifies /system/build.prop, and is not designed specifically for this kernel, best of luck to you.
In keeping with my current practices, flashing this (except maybe in strange cases) will NOT require you to wipe *anything*, including caches.
This should be compatible with most any ROM. Right now it is only confirmed working on VaelPak 2.1.
Cheers!
As always, I am not responsible if this blows up your device. It is happily running on mine.

no FPS unlock correct.
It's not a link lol it's just underlined. Maybe I should change that. The points of interest are under it

My phone hung on the boot screen. I'm on Baked Snack 1.75. Is there any chance you could repackage this with Koush's kernal updater?
Edit: I'm giving it a shot. I'll post if it works. (fingers-crossed)

lol that was def a blond moment for me. ****, i feel retarded lol

Not sure what all the hype is with this Kernel. Personally it gives me terrible battery life.

I repacked the kernel in Koush's tool but it still isn't getting past the splash screen on BS 1.75. I'm puzzled.

I don't see how my phone has been up for 14 hours last it was plugged in was at 11:30 am central time and I've used the hell out of it for 4hrs 30 mins and battery is at 53% its 4:30 pm central time. This HTC kernel is better than any other HTC kernel made for the evo.
I unchecked enable on always mobile data and turned roaming of to just Sprint towers lowered screen light a little bit unabled haptic feedback on keyboard and rom and also added the undervolt.ko to the rom I found on this website some where in the evo development section. Also using autokiller app and no set CPU or overclock widget.

Flashed on top of virus rom stuck on splash as well

Got back to your nand backup, I ALWAYS wipe the dalvik cache and cache when flashing a new kernel. Try that.

Tried this as well no go as of now

I think this is why no one has posted up a flashable kernel with this kernel cause I've tried this kernel on a 3.2.6 Rom back when this kernel was first available and it was a no go.

Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk

Thanks a lot. Honestly, I really hate ROMs. I much prefer being able to essentially build and customize myself without someone else's customizations. Update.zips are the best.

yeah I think this needs the 3.28.651.1 framework

Would you guys want a update.zip with just the kernel and framework? Or just the framework? I figured most roms would be using it by now (the framework at least)
Also, caches can be wiped in the update script, which I do. Before and after the flash for good measure. Cache, boot cache, and dalvik.

For those who have flashed kernels already

My only experience with android phones so far has been with the captivate.Flashing kernels on that phone was easy with neldars app.Does anyone know if that app is functional on the inspire or if theres a similar app.
Thanks in advance guys.

I haven't tried neldar's kernel flasher on the Inspire yet, but flashing a kernel on the Inspire is pretty simple. Just reboot into recovery, install zip from sdcard, and select the kernel. Flash and reboot

DO NOT try that app on the inspire.
It's called sgs kernel flasher for a reason

Sorry for off topic but di11i are you going to be developing the source?

Im gonna try my damndst
Just got the phone last night and rooted, flashed leedroid with stock kernel and radio just so I wouldn't be stock today at work( and I work construction, and can't even use my phone much during the day.- that's how much I do not like the stock set up and bloat)
So I'm gonna try making something tonight, deodexed zipaligned debloated and optimized.
Mostly waiting for kernel source to fix audio as that should be fairly easy , but I'm gonna try to make something to hold some people over until then

What was your reasoning for leedroid? And the TELUS kernel works just as well with faster data and connectivity without any instability.
I'm also down to be a beta tester.

Stock rom with root?

Can't find anything like this. Want to use a stock rom until CM7 gets its crap together.

U dont have a back up of your stock rom ? Take them from this time onwards. Its situations like these when u required them

What's wrong with CM7? Seems better than stock to me atm.

I'm surprised they're at RC status on CM based on some of the various bug reports and missing features I keep seeing pop up here and in the general section. The short answer to your question is that it's not-quite-ready-for-prime-time in some people's experience.
I'll turn your question around: what's wrong with stock? Gingerbread/NS is first Android combo I've not felt the desire to use a non-stock rom on yet even after two months.
To the original poster, I'll second what @suhas_sm said, you don't have a nandroid of your stock/rooted system? That should always be the first thing you do after rooting any phone, and the first step in flashing any new rom, ESPECIALLY a new rom that is in alpha/beta status (like CM7).
If you don't have your own nandroid, the development section does have nandroid images of a stock rom you can restore over your phone via clockwork recovery.

I have the stock back up but won't I lose root after I reboot?
I LOOOVE CM roms but CM7 is too buggy for me. Can't wait to use it when it's stable.

I will say I love my stock ROM with the Netarchy Kernal @ 1.2Ghz it is blazing fast. This is the first android phone I have had and damn its great. I don't think i need to go doing new ROMs other than the whole theme option sounds great.

[Q] Rooted phone, now what?

Hi folks!
Very new noob here and very curious about what else I can do now that I've rooted my Inspire 4g. I used attn1 hack kit and it took me roughly 30 minutes to complete the root process.
So, first question is - I've noticed, and already read about it, that my wifi is no longer working and that I need to do something.....yes I'm a noob and I'm not sure what exactly I need to do to get my wifi feature working again.
Second - What else can I do now with a rooted phone other than the tethering/wifi hotspot features? Any cool apps? Any updated core (not sure of term) program that will replace the default image loaded with attn1 hack kit?
I'm honestly completely content with what attn1 hack kit did minus the wifi.
So basically looking to fix my wifi issue, i can connect to networks but can't use them, and also looking to tweak/speed up phone even more and load some cool apps.
I apologize for being a noob.

if you want, you can try the rom in my signature....
in all honesty, try every rom out there for your phone. see which one works for you

You have a lot you can do still, read around these forums, use the search, and read the stickies, they'll help you out a lot. The first thing I'd recommend looking into is flashing a new ROM (the "core program"), which should take care of your wifi problem.
Just remember, most questions you'll have have been answered at some point, always search a few different ways before posting multiple threads asking questions.
But good luck! Welcome to being rooted, once you learn what you can do you'll realize why everyone recommends it. As for root apps, ROM Manager is must have IMO, makes flashing a lot easier, Titanium Backup is good, Root Tools is pretty useful (although on some custom ROMs like CM7 there are easier ways to do most of the stuff it can do), and SetCPU if you want to overclock your CPU.

My favorite thing about being rooted, other than flashing roms, is setcpu. With a Rom that supports it, you can overclock and underclock. I underclock when the screen is off and it helps battery life immensely. Just be careful with overclocking. Some phones do better with it. I never overclock past 1.2 ghz.

I stick to 1.3 max and I've never had a problem. My kernel can go up to 1.9 But that's just unnesseccessarry.

Did you flash the stock ROM (w/ or w/o SL) from his thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1058042
I was previously running it and didn't have any issues with WiFi.

The very first thing you need to do is flash a rom. The hack kit leaves you with the downgraded rom, which is strictly for the exploit during the root process. It is not intended to be left on the phone. You can flash back to the latest stock rooted rom or find a custom modded rom to try out.

Honestly you have tons of options. I have had a rooted phone for a long time and just now joined the site. I have been reading all the posts for months now and have gotten pretty good at it all. You first need to flash a new rom and learn how to tweak the base roms. Then once you master that, you will start flashing new radios and RILs. Then you will learn to mix and match kernals and roms. Then you will start to overclock and undervolt your cpu for performance enhancements and battery saving. There is a ton to do but reading the post in the development section will get you where you need to be. It will take some time but you will learn it all. Rom Manager is probably the most needed app of them all to start with.

Thanks for the replies folks!
I've gone and flashed my second rom! LOL...I know....what a young'en
I went with the Android Revolution ROM and I gotta say...loving the battery life so far...much better than stock.
I'm looking at changing the main theme and would like to go with the Code Red one. The pre reqs are - DEODEXED ROM, Root, S-Off, DHD Sense ROM, Clockwork Mod and ROM Manager.
So question - I now know that I've got all of the above met except for the DEODEXED ROM. Not sure what this is....I have searched the forums and wasn't able to come up with a clear answer as to what this means.
Oh...lesson learned...back up my contacts before I flash my next ROM. I lost it all! lol

Just a bump for some help.

all custom roms are deodexed. you do have to be careful when applying themes though. most of them are specific for a specific build of a rom. you cant always apply any theme to any rom

Help Picking A Rom

I rooted my device with a kernel and I have EE4. What rom will be good? I had the thunderbolt and used CM7. I know the droid charge dont have that yet. Im a bit confused about all the different numbers that i see around the forums. With the thunderbolt all you needed to know is which radio to have installed with the rom. Some please point me to the good roms that will work.
Im stock right now with root. EE4

I'd recommend Eclipse 1.3.1 for SURE. Having tried both GC and Humble beforehand I can seriously say Eclipse is great. I just like how much better Eclipse looks over the other ones. Sure themes can change that but just try Eclipse out and see how it goes. If you don't like Eclipse then Humble is certainly the one you will like.
If you're worried about losing apps or other such things just download Titanium Backup(just pay for the full version, it's much better if you are going to backup/restore alot).
also, this should be in the general section

can you shoot me a link? Also same way to install like on my thunderbolt right? Either use rom manager and select the rom on my sd card or boot into recovery?

gummy, eclipse, and humble are all great. I have found trade offs with each but the developers are actively involved in the forum and are constantly working on their roms to you just have to find which one you like best...but you will switch from time to time anyway if you are like the rest of us
I have stayed away from the GB roms since there seem to be a few bugs and I was never really impressed with GB on my DX. I still run froyo on that phone.

Ya, stick with Froyo for now.
I've used both Eclipse & Humble and both have benefits. I prefer Eclipse 1.3.1 for now...very fast, decent battery & good looking GUI.

if i install eclipse 1.3.1 will i lose root since i used a kernel to get root?

Nope.
Purchase Titanium Backup if you have not. Back up all your apps/system aps. Download an app to back up your SMS if you want and boot into recovery.
Wipe data, cache, go to advanced and wipe delvik. Back to main screen and install rom from sd card and reinstall your info and data.

No you won't lose root. You need to read the faq in the general section. Charge is very different than TB. Don't use rom manager for any thing. It doesn't work w/ the charge.

I tend to disagree with the froyo. IMO from a rom developer standpoint, even a buggy GB rom is better than froyo, it lacks many things. Im using the Eclipse GB rom now, and really very little in buggy. Now GB roms are lacking a solid kernel that you can undervolt and overlock, the Eclipse GB does lag at times (no i have not yet tried to do the EXT4 hack then used a GB rom.
One thing im not fond of with this phone coming from a EVO 4G and MT4G is that its super laggy, i know it works better with ext4... also the recovery way... when i reboot into recovery... i have to reboot to it.. then pull the battery then it will boot into recovery.

Idk, but I can't get away from Eclipse 1.2. It runs the fastest out of any rom.

Unless I am missing something somewhere I don't believe there is lagfix for GB? If so it would tend to be more "laggy". I notice no lag using froyo and lagfix enabled. I do not overclock.

wait till imnutz finishes the aosp vendor repo for the charge... when AOSP 2.3.4 roms start coming out... it will change the whole face of the ROM world for the charge.
only need to odin for radios... recovery included in rom.... boots into recovery right... all crap removed(OS level crap not just bloatware)... i check his github everyday.

that it says no kernel is included with rom. So do I just keep the kernel I have that gave me root or do I flash the rom then the new kernel the dev recommends?

Just flash the rom. You only need to flash a kernel if you are planning on changing it. If you already have the kernel you are planning on running with the rom just wipe data and install the rom.
I am running the froyo eclipse with the honeycomb theme and it is awesome. Battery life is great and I would highly recommend it. I am running it with imnuts non overclocked voodoo kernel.
