I've searched around, but have yet to find a definitive answer. Can I run ANY i9000 rom on the captivate as long as I use a reorient kernal, such as Setiron's?
run, yes, flawlessly, maybe, won't know until you try it.
That was the intended purpose of the reorient kernels from Xcaliberinhand. Setiron has simply extended Xcaliber's kernel with the tweaks and lagfixes of some of the other i9000 kernels.

Right on. I've been running Tayu's Lite with setirons for the last few weeks. I didn't use the rom supplied in the Dev section, though. I pieced it together separately. This is by far the best setup I have used yet, but after using the cogs previously, i became a flash junkie and want to try something else out.
I am also using Tayutama's rom but I will be trying out cognition once true source code has been released allowing proper kernels and tweaks to be done. I imagine cog will come back with a vengeance after the true update and source are released. Happy flashing.
Can I simply flash a new kernel on top of my ROM? For instance, can I flash SetrioN 1.3.3 if I'm currently runiing 1.2? Just put in in Odin under Phone? PDA?
Still learning here.

If you've made adjustments to you OC/UV, you need to reset those to default. After that, you can just flash the new one right on top using CWM rec.
Thanks. I haven't messed with those settings.
Props to both of you for asking your questions in general. Remember to use a good descriptive subject in the future though.

AnyKernel zips will only replace the kernel in your boot.img.
To define a boot.img:
Kernel(zImage) + ramdisk(root file system + init scripts) = boot.img
Where AnyKernel came from:
While searching for different kernels for my Motorola Droid I stumbled on a great idea implemented by Koush. Basically it will split the boot.img from recovery while your phone is running then replace the kernel and make a new boot.img and flash it along with the correct modules for the kernel.
I figured I would implement it on the CDMA Hero and it worked out.
This will work on any rooted rom with a custom recovery running Sense UI including the stock rom.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are the undervolted and overclocked kernels for Sense ROMS
These kernels are built from the HTC heroc-2.6.29-bc0d2ccf source with toasts overclock patch modified by darchstar/Decad3nce to include undervolt.
The git repo for this is @ http://github.com/zenulator/htc-heroc-2.6.29-bc0d2cff
The GPL license can be read @ http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html
ZenKernel-HTC-08122010 no perf lock
It has perf lock disabled to allow full overclocking with out the need use setcpu to disable perf lock. The clock speeds will stay at what ever the target rom uses unless you running a rom with no overclock built in. If so it will scale from 19mhz to 768mhz.
Download
ZenKernel-HTC-08122010 perf lock
Same as above but with perf lock enabled. It will run at stock values on any sense Rom until you use setcpu. To overclock it you will need to set setcpu to autodetect and then disable perf lock inside setcpu.
Download
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
StockVoltage Overclocked Kernel:
This kernel is built from the same source as the rest except the voltages were changed to stock values. It will max out at 691 and the governor is set to performance.
Download
Setcpu is free for xda memebers and can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3638937&postcount=1
Instructions:
Download the update and copy it to the root of your sdcard.
Reboot into recovery.
Nandroid (just in case you want to go back)
Flash the update
Reboot
Check Settings > About phone > Software information > Kernel version
_____________________________________________________________________________
If you wish to modify this with another kernel just extract the update and replace the zImage in the kernel directory with the one you want and replace the corresponding modules. Then rezip and resign and flash. It will work on any 2.1 sense rom regardless of boot.img.
Damn good work zenulator I am downloading it now and will test thoroughly tomorrow and see how it go's.
Thanks for the hard work.
Works great, using it with your beta ROM. Lock screen lag is gone
I got used to it so I barely noticed it... but now it seems a lot faster
I know you just started this and it says for sense. But I gotta ask is there anyway that this will work with froyo? I'm not a fan of overclock roms because of the lag when you push the menu key till when you screen is actually ready to go. And this gives me hope
of having a kernel that doesn't do that

Yes it will work for froyo if you modify it and put in the correct zImage (kernel). It won't work with the update I posted since it's made for Sense roms and uses HTC's Synaptics driver which isn't compatible with AOSP 2.2 Froyo/Cyanogenmod.
If you want a AOSP kernel with no overclock and no ability to overclock at all then I can do that but not for a couple days. If you ask darch he might be able to do it quicker since he already has everything set up and most likely only two files will need to be changed before a compile.

Uhh. I'm going to give a brief explanation.
AnyKernel is a tool created by Koushik Dutta found here on github.
The beauty of it is that it can flash/add a kernel to any boot.img regardless of ramdisk. It literally does the unpacking of the boot.img, extracting of the ramdisk, deletion of the original kernel and repacking of the boot.img together with the kernel of your choice.
The difference with this is probably changes in base address/cmd line and possible how it's extracted(haven't looked at it). Very awesome tool nonetheless, and is a lot more efficient that going through the process of coupling the kernel with each specific ramdisk before releasing a boot.img.
That's how it's different from your quoted "kernel".

I understand the explanation but have to ask what rge different change. I know this will just change the kernal from the boot imiage which is great and it has the HTC synaptic drivers in the kernal but that kernal with the HTC drivers has already been implemented into the latest boot.imgs. its a cool concept and would make it easier to change just the kernal for a one shot stop when a newer kernal comes out but as of right now that's the same kernal most of the sense based roms have already implemented into them at this time. If im wrong I'm sorry.
Now with the HTC Synaptics driver included, the swipe action once the screen is on is no longer lagged. However, I notice that there is still lag from the time the power button is hit to the time the screen comes on as compared to stock where there is almost no lag. Is there some other driver or something that causes this?
Well just an update but it has been very smooth so far, 8 hours as still smooth . Great job. Screen rotation and scroll seem quicker also .

This will just make it a lot easier instead of having multiple boot.img for different roms like in the other thread. Plus this will work on other roms not supported in the other thread. I know the kernel brings nothing new but for instance if someone wants to overclock my old ZenHero they can now do that. Or if someone just rooted their phone and installed RA or some other recovery this is all they need to over clock and still keep their stock system.
So when someone makes a new kernel they can use this and have it work on any Rom instead of just a specific Rom.

Makes sense. I thought about it actually and it will make things easier. I used it earlier today on a boot.img I flashed first that had the ramdisk mod for battery tweak but I think was missing the HTC synaptic driver. Lag is all gone and it worked great.

Now this is what I'm talking about
I was looking for something like this. Darchstar is one helluva dev, but it seems like the only kernels in use these days are Toasts (base) then modded toast kerenels by Darchstar (which are great as well). But I'd like to see a couple of tweaks fixed in the most recent Kernel #6 such as the typo that Uroshiol mentioned that is located in the actual zImage in the DArchstar uv2 kernel 710 with freememkiller
Nice nice work ya'llz and great stuff Zen... makes the addition of new kernels a breeeeze
Wait...so there is an under volted, oc kernel available for nfinite's .6 stock rom that eliminates the menu button wake lag?? i dont like the lag but deal with it. although if there is a way to eliminate the lag, please share!!
Zen, you're definitely an unsung hero (no pun intended I swear) around these parts and I for one definitely appreciate your work. Cheers!
I was hoping to conduct a brief survey of which Kernel people are using.
Please list which Kernel you are using on your Charge and why you like it? Also, what other Kernels have you tried?
I am pretty new to this whole deal of flashing Kernels and ROMs as I have only had my Charge for 2 weeks now(my first smart phone). I am currently running EE4 stock right now but I have tried a few different ROMs(Gummy and AB) and JT's Kernel(root/voodoo/CWM). I keep coming here every day for the last 2 weeks reading and reading on what to do and what works well and what doesnt. I was curious as to the Kernel specifically and wanted to find out what most of the more experienced users are using and liking.
We have 4 kernels, Stock, Kangfuscius, JT's, and Mine. Stock is what it is, the stock kernel. JT's I believe is stock with modified initramfs for Voodoo and some other functions. Kangfuscius is built from source, but has few modifications outside of OCing and some initramfs tweaks I believe. Mine is built from source, has a variety of mods to it, as well as tweaked initramfs with fixes, features, and voodoo. The kernel really comes down to what you are looking for. Personally, I run my own
Right now I'm using imnut's kernel. I used JT's right after he released it, and switched to imnut's because it is more heavily optimized. So far I like it just fine.

PB & J all the way! I've had zero problems with this kernel, just hoping for some overclock someday.
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
imnuts's PB&J mostly because I like the lagfix, it's the newest, and he is the most active in the community, so I feel like we get the best support.
Also, what CWM do you prefer? Imnuts one or JT's? Or the one packaged into Droidxcon's AB rom?

AB has JT's bundled in. I prefer imnuts's because the buttons work, he removed the potentially damaging backup/restore options, and he can test on the Charge. JT threw his out as a favor, but I don't think he actually has a Charge he can test on, and doesn't plan on doing dev for it (my apologies if I'm wrong on that).

initramfs=ramdisk It sets up the system as the phone boots to get it ready to run.
OK I installed Inmnuts new CWM and PB&J kernel earlier today. So far so good. I do notice it is decently faster with the lagfix enabled. Although the EE4 update did improve the speed alot IMO over ED1 and ED2. I have learned so much from all of you guys reading all this stuff over the past few weeks. I wanted to say thank you for all the advice and hard work!
I think the Gtab devs should team up too.

Wonder is this AdamComb v0.1 can be flashed on gtab ?
Anybody knows ?
Dave,
I haven't tried it, but it probably can, so long as you also flash Clem's HC kernel. Some of the drivers might not be there though, like wifi.
I'm really hoping zhyong makes that his next bl1.1 project.
MC
Should be able to.
Ok, I nvflashed back to 1.2, installed adamcomb. wifi works. I'll start testing other things.
I didn't install clem or pershoot kernel. I'm wondering if the vega/adam teams are using anything from Eduardo's .36 kernel port?
MC
Thanks for the heads up. I'll take a look at it.

Adamcomb does work on the gtab, I just installed with cwm, Bootloader 1.2 required, will report later after testing.

As I suspected, adding pershoot kernel killed wifi. I know which files to move and from where, but will test that later or in the morning.
Once I have that, I don't mind packaging as a rom but could use a little advice (or a wiki somewhere) on how to take the rom, copy pershoot's kernel to it, sort out the meta-inf's or whatever I have to do to get it to install kernel, and rezip it.
If anybody can help me there, I'm willing to start maintaining this rom...

As I hoped, Zhyong got it done. He's way ahead of me in terms of knowledge and putting roms together.
I found that using Adamcomb by itself didn't cause sleep of death, but when I added pershoot kernel, I got sleep of death and couldn't sort that out. Going to play with Zhyong's bl1.1 and 1.2 versions and try to see how he did it.
His roms based on Adamcomb are in the Rom dev forum here and it's his 3.0.

Sleep of death is usually due to undervolting. Pershoot's kernel does that. Some tegra-2 cpus can undervolt lower than others. If yours can't, the "sleep of death" is the result.

Possibly, but it only happens with bl1.2 roms, and not bl1.1 roms. I'm pretty sure zhyong used the same adamcomb base, and pershoot kernel, and made one for bl1.1 and one for bl1.2 and I installed and got no sleep of death on 1.1. I'll try his 1.2 and see if the result is the same.
It would possibly make sense as I think originally roebeet built his 1.2 honeycomb roms with clemsyn kernel and switched to pershoot around his version 4 or 5 and before that I didn't have sod, but even now, if I take adamcomb and put clemsyn kernel on 1.2, I get sod. It definitely seems bl 1.2 related, though I know some people have the problem and some don't.
MC
GtabComb is basically a direct port of AdamComb, but with some very useful gTab optimizations. In my (limited) testing it is fully compatible with other Pershoot kernels as well.
Hey guys!
I recently got a Rogers captivate (I896) and have been playing around with it lately... Currently it is running CM7... I followed these steps to put Cyanogenmod on my phone (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Captivate:_Full_Update_Guide) I've been reading up on kernels, and am pretty interested in changing the kernel... But when I checked the kernel, i had a kernel named 2.6.35.7-g8f2a88c-dirty [email protected] #1... I did some searches but it came up empty... What is this kernel?
I've been looking at Glitch, hoping that it would improve battery life...

With a few quick searches it seems that that kernel is the one that CyanogenMod uses as the stock kernel, I don't have CM7 on mine but take a look in the dev forums and you can see other kernels and read a little about the differences. Then choose the best one for you. And if it turns out it isn't the best one for you flash another.

Your welcome and hit the thanks button. As to your other question most roms will come with their custom kernel cooked in some will use the stock kernel but almost all roms will change your kernel when you flash something new. Kernels and roms are completely different things but you can't flash a ROM without a kernel. But you can flash a new kernel without flashing a new rom. Just make sure that you read read read. So that you don't end up bricking your phone.
i had read a couple of posts here and there on how good faux kernel is, on "how smooth it runs or that it gets good battery life" but my question is, what is a kernel? is it only to over/under clock or is it something more that i am missing? what do i need to run it, (requirements you may say) ? i am on weapon g2x 3.0
In a nutshell (from the way i've always understood it) a kernel is basically the bridge of communication between your applications and the phone's hardware. There are no "requirements" to run it on your phone because it's already on there. Without it, you're smartphone would not be functional. These other kernels you hear about are custom made kernels. Kernels can be replaced by flashing one on top of the other (just like a ROM).

Even more basic understanding. Software for your hardware. If you are a car guy...ECU?

There are kernels designed for certain ROMs. We have kernels for CM7 & AOSP Based ROMs, and kernels for 2.3.3/2.2.2 based ROMs.

Yes you can. The kernel is sort of like the engine of your car. There's certain kernels that only work with CM7, or stock, but they'll usually say in the description.
