[REQ] Flashable Firebird Kernel!! - Captivate General

Hey, was just hoping to try and talk you into posting a cwm/odin flashable firebird kernel!

Take the zImage out and package it yourself.
And don't post junk in development.

i'll be nice and post it for you but what MikeyMike said is true you could always pull out the zimage and zip it up,...

[Kernel Source] ToAsTcfh-Eclair-2.6.27 {Updated- Apr30, 2010} Murder-Kernel

this is my 2.6.27 source for eclair builds of android. this has been a long time project with lots of help from some great friends. i consider this a community kernel so all are welcomed to it, to use in their builds or what not. all thats asked is for all who use it, to give credit for using this source. just as u would for using anyone elses work. thats just to be fair to those who help maintain this kernel.
thanx:
maejrep
flipz

bzo
and if i forgot u ill add u later
current commits:
-msm_hw3d support for Donut and Eclair builds (ported patches made by phhusson and MrPippy)
-synaptics touch driver (backported from .29)
-msm_camera (backported from .29 by maejrep)not yet working
-compcache sources
-overclocking and the ability to scale all current freqs (major thanx to phhuddson, bzo, and maejrep for all the help)
-backported ext4 support
-fixed freq tables to show correct clock speeds
-backported BFS (Brain **** Scheduler) version 316
new commits and patches are welcomed. please submit them for review.

Good job Hopefully these fixes make it into all the awesome ROMs out there (yours included)
So this is the much anticipated OpenGL and Multitouch?
I actually grabbed the source from github /jhansche/htc-2.6.27-heroc last night. Got it compiled and running and I have to say it works nicely. Loving the OpenGL, but especially the multi-touch!
You guys are awesome. Thank you for all your hard work!

Sure is. This is the code base that got me the highest-on-Hero-so-far 29.9fps bench on neocore that I posted a screenshot of in his thread.
Amazing work guys
damn it I really need to get a linux setup so I can compile the kernels. I WANT THIS!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!
Hope this gets incorporated soon into the latest 2.0.1/2.1 AOSP ROMs...also is this compatible with Gumbo's Kernel?

i'm pretty sure that this is a kernel, so your question's a bit confusing. maybe i'm just delirious?
I know its a kernel dude....still it can get incorporated into those ROMs builds like everyone has been waiting to do so...
What I'm saying is that with this now the ROM makers can get OpenGL and Multitouch on their ROM releases, something everyone has been waiting for.
soooo who wants to be so nice as to compile this to zip so people can flash it

yes that is true but you also asked if it was compatable with gbhils kernel that is why it was a little confusing.

Yes, this codebase (the last few days' commits at least) will enable hw3d and multitouch, and can be applied to any .27 kernel that is based on the htc-heroc-2.6.27 code that HTC released (which I should hope is all of them )
And yes, any kernel can be integrated into a ROM, as long as the ROM doesn't rely on custom kernel changes (e.g., squashfs is not enabled in this codebase, but if the developer already has squashfs in his own kernel codebase, he can apply these latest commits to his code, and compile a new kernel with both squashfs and gl+multutouch support, if that's what his ROM requires)

Yea I'm no tech guy/developer...just asking if on a ROM a dev could include this as well as the ability to setcpu which is available by way of Gumbo's kernel.

You can't add just a kernel to an update.zip and flash it -- kernel gets combined into the boot.img, which is included in the update.zip for every ROM. boot.img also has the stuff that goes into / (like init.rc scripts), and so not every ROM will be compatible with the same boot.img, and you can't just flash a boot.img by itself via zip (you can via flash_image in recovery, but still, some ROMs require the boot.img that it was designed for, due to init ramdisk )
So, this is more something for the ROM developers and the not-so-faint of heart. In reality, it's not that hard to build the boot.img, and you can actually unzip your favorite ROM's zip, unpack the boot.img, then rebuild a new boot.img using that ROM's initrd and your own custom kernel, then flash just the boot.img using flash_image, and it won't even require a wipe. That's again assuming the ROM doesn't rely on anything custom in the kernel it was released with.

ok I see what you where asking now majrep already answered most of it but yeah I belive that they could get the setcpu thing going in this kernel.

Uncapped Kernel w/ additional ReiserFS, JFS, XFS support

Hey guys. I was messing with some kernels, and I had Decad3nce's kernel source on my computer. I decided to cook up a boot.img that had ReiserFS, JFS, and XFS support included in it (I think I remember someone asking for ReiserFS support awhile back). So, here it is. Do what you want with it, but give Decad3nce the credit for making the kernel in the first place Oh, and I set the max CPU speed to 691MHz.
Note: It's the same as Uncapped Kernel in the sense that it will only work with ROM's that support Uncapped Kernel. Also, this is the raw boot.img, so it is not flashable. Do what you want with it... I just felt like putting this out in the wild
P.S. Don't forget to rename it to boot.img before you use it!!!

EDIT: It is the CFS version as well, not the BFS version.

It's the same kernel as Decad3nce's CFS 691MHz kernel, except it has support the the ReiserFS, JFS, and XFS filesystems. It just gives you more options pretty much.
I want to try this out. Can I apply this without a computer.

Nope, sorry. It needs to be either cooked into a ROM or flashed through ADB.

where are the downloads?

Ive realized that i need a new kernal... how do i get these kernals if i cannot use multi or megaupload? can someone post me some links on where to get theses kernals?
The links for Infusion work for me at least the coreA2 which is probably the one you want.

ICS Kernel

So, if you think this is a stupid question, please closed this MOD
I was wondering, if there any ICS kernel. Have searched and found nothing.....

Patch the kernel and compile from source.
No, I'm not joking.
I believe the kernel devs are working on getting something a lot better than a governor on a 2.6 kernel, but I'll leave that to them to reveal at the proper time.

Hopefully the kernel devs are not givin up
Since this is a GB kernel, it should be simple, assuming you know how to recompile a kernel from source, just to grab the OC etc routines out of one of AntonX's or bhundven's kernels and then just stick them in and recompile. Since everyone is using the same kernel so far this would only need to be done once. This erzatz ICS is slow and sure could use OC, more governors etc.
I added smartassv2 last night, but want to get a "clean" build off the AOKP tree and have a few days running it before I release it to the wilds.

Download his rom unzip it grab the boot.img and flash it with heimdall. Then grab the wifi module(bcm4329 I think is the name lol) and push it to the same place u got it from (/system/lib/modules/)
----------------------------------------------
If helped don't be afraid to hit the thanks button it doesn't bite lol
DISCLAIMER: I'm not responsible neither is thomasraines or xda if you brick your device you are doing this on your own free will. The only thing you can say is how awesome thomas is for creating this and how awesome I am for uploading and writing directions. Any blame will result in me pointing and laughing uncontrollably.
Files removed thomsasraines posted the kernel in the dev section it can be found there. Please visit his thread and follow what he posted so you can get the full effect ok? If not tough I aint re upping the files .
Click the statement above for direct route to the kernel thread.
Unzip the bcm4329.ko, xda wouldnt let me upload a .ko file .
Put the bcm4329.ko file on your sdcard. Then using something like root explorer copy it to /system/lib/modules folder.
I suggest renaming the old one to bcm4329.ko.bak just in case.
Using heimdall you can flash the kernel using the following command.
Code:
heimdall flash --kernel boot.img
This is from terminal in ubuntu or cmd in windows. Make sure you are running the commands from the folder you put the boot.img in.
Once the phone reboots pull the battery and put it back in. Boot into recovery and run fix permissions. Then reboot.
so what will this do again? Is this for a kernel different than the kj6 one?
If you are unsure of what it is for then dont attempt the steps.
Do some more reading.

I have multiple kernels in progress. The common problem on all of them seems to be sd/mmc.

(Q) A question about Kernels

I've been having fun moding Straped365's stock ROM. I've been flashing different kernels with success but I'm having trouble figureing out how to put a custom kernel in my ROM zip. I did some searching and what I did was take Dodges boot.img from a nandroid and put it in my ROM zip and it worked. everything except wifi that is. What is it I'm missing to get the wifi working?

When using a custom kernel inside a ROM you also need to use system/lib/modules from the kernel zip or ROM. If not wifi will throw an error every time. Go look at my posted kernel zip to get an idea behind what you need. Just remember not everyone compiles tun.ko and cifs.ko so if it's not there it wasn't chosen as a module therefor isn't needed for that kernel to run.

thank you very much strapped! you are awesome .
i would actually decompile the boot.img's and replace the kernel rather then copying the whole boot.img

So your saying decompile the kernel to take the zImage and compile it back with the stock ramdisk? If their using someone's sense kernel it would be much easier to just grab the whole boot.img because them zImages were already split with HTC ramdisk.
The wifi error was the current modules did not match the boot.img, wasn't compiled with that kernel ect.
But I honestly see no point in De compiling a prebult kernel to add it to a ROM, because when you flash a kernel nothing is decompiled to achieve a working kernel. ( just like if you added it to the ROM)

i was more just replying in general, thinking specifically about roms like smurfmod which have custom ramdisk tweaks/edits
