Kernel Manager released! Lite (free): http://tinyw.in/0i8, Pro (cost): Available in the Market...ENJOY!
Hey everyone! I wanted to introduce a new app with a very simple but ambitious goal: create a place where all kernel developers can submit kernels easily and reach a much wider audience with ease.
The app currently does this:
1) Downloads a kernel from our fast and stable teamwin server
2) Unzips the relevant files (modules included)
3) Flashes the kernel
4) Installs the kernel modules
5) Clears cache/dalvik-cache
6) Reboots to apply the changes.
This entire process takes less than a minute, generally, (depending on download speeds of course ), and it is extremely simple for end-users to find a kernel, filter by kernel features (BFS, CFS, HAVS, SBC, etc) download/install kernels, and submit ratings for their favorite kernels.
In order for this to be a success, we need support from kernel developers like YOU! Submitting a kernel to Kernel Manager is totally free and we even provide hosting for you! Right now I'm looking for kernel developers to submit kernels to start populating the app. Submitting kernels is easy!
If you use IRC, join us in freenode in #kernel-manager!
THE LINK IS FOR KERNEL DEVELOPERS SPECIFICALLY! Go to http://kernels.teamw.in and register for an account! Once it's approved, you can easily enter new kernels, which immediately show up in the app. The app will be released in the market, and there will be a free+ad supported version, and a for-cost version that removes the ads.
Right now, we have a specific list of supported phones, but plan to add every nand-unlocked phone as soon as possible. (There are a lot of variables to account for on multiple devices to make sure the process works )
Please feel free to provide me with any feedback you have, or feature requests in order to make this a great tool for all of android to utilize!

Pardon my ignorance, but you are able to flash kernels, and from the several I downloaded, they use the "standard" anykernel method... how is it that you can flash custom kernels using the same method as others without having s-off?
And if that is the case, what makes you say that you won't be able to use the app to flash them? Would you be willing to test it, just to humor me?

The only way to gain write access to the system partition is through recovery. Even trying to flash things through ROM Manager causes lots of problems on the Aria, so we generally avoid using that, too.
I will try it if you'd like, but can't with no kernels listed. Or is there a way I can select one manually with the app?

drumist, sent you a pm with some instructions, thanks for offering to help us test
If this app works in the same way Rom Manager does with flashing Rom's then there's no reason it wouldnt work on our Arias. I'd assume it uses some script to tell the phone what to do once its in recovery? Whatever the case is, Id be willing to give this a test run as well if we could get a kernel up.

Unfortunately, based on our testing with drumist (thanks drum!) it requires s-off in order to complete the flashing process, since it flashes completely without having to be in recovery.
It still works great to downlad and find kernels, if any kernel devs are interested in sharing their work through KM, but the second half of the functionality that KM provides won't work .

Thats still helpful for kernel developers to reach a broader audience. I never flash a Rom with rom manager, but I use its built in update service to notify me when rom updates/nightlies are released. Would be nice to have the same thing for custom kernels.
EDIT: downloaded and gave the app a try. It really is a very nice app. Very intuitive. It automatically brought up a kernel for my phone and a little bit of info on its compatibilities. The kernel download was very quick as well. And I like the ability to rate the kernel and its stability.

Koush is supplying a great too with ROM Manager
It supports,
-Kitchen like facility
allows a modaco kitchen like setup where the rom can be base and the RM will apply update.zips selected by the user to have a custom rom
-ROM update.zips
-easy to set up for RM
-Generally awsome
If the majority of XDA ROM devs used this would make everything much easier and make roms much easier to navigate...
at the minute we rely on a lot of forum threads that people have to trawl through?
Is this really the best way?
Continue to have ROM's available on the forum but it is much better to use for buy reporting etc.
This would also reduce the need to check forums constantly for updates as updates would be notified by RM
Just imagine
Alternativley if your lazy please provide QR codes for your download links.
Using this tool QR Generator
Thanks to Koush for this tool.

I give devs free versions of premium. That's what I've been doing for Dream, Sapphire, Hero, N1, Droid, etc... not a problem!
A developer doesn't actually even need the premium version for a developer to add a ROM.

maybe it should be free for devs to upload there rom. Now they have to buy the app to be allowed to upload a rom. I don't think that will work.

Yeah, no Kernels so far for the Hero I hope I don't regret buying the pro version. I'm not due for an upgrade for a little while.

I totally disagree. Yes this is an app, but it's to install/swap KERNELS, which are most definately "development" and are advanced so to speak, so this is kinda more than a simple "app" that belongs in themes and apps. Jus my 2 pennies.

Yeah, I put it in the android dev forum specifically because the point of the thread is to encourage kernel developers to submit their kernels so that end-users can see/download/flash them a lot easier. I re-worked the later threads I posted about it in other forums to be more dev-centric .

Hero CM kernel hasn't had any changes for a while. Almost all of the builds should have the same one.
I'd rather not focus if this is in the right forum or not! but I choose to congratulate the dev of this app!
Very well thought out! and keep up the great work! I will download and try it out next time I want to flash a different ROM.

SalvageMod is a AOSP project developed by myself, Barnacles10, and echoside.
This software is built from the Android open source project 2.3.5 branch.
We are offering 1.4 both odex and deodex. Keep in mind, most themers theme deodex ROMs.
Make sure to choose what the google add-on that corresponds with your ROM choice.

I achieved a Quadrant score of 1460 with the last build. I'll report back after flash and restore.
Great job man. I'm just curious. Did you odex post-build or did you compile Rom with an odex option? Ive been playing with Rom building for some time now and have only messed with sense. I managed to build a stock aosp Rom the other day but would like to learn more about aosp building. Feel free to pm because I feel this post is off-topic. Thanks man.
Now that I have root again I might have to give this a go (would be first aosp Rom).

Being an AOSP ROM, these do not rely on the HTC kernel code release. There are any of several fine kernels to choose from, so its virtually always possible to find one that your phone likes.
Regarding the 'problem with the sensors', can you elaborate on that? I've used a couple versions of the Evo-deck ROM and have yet to experience any issue.
I look forward to trying this ROM! For some reason, I couldn't get the 1.3 to run on my phone, but that could have been a bad download or similar issue. I was just too busy at that time. But I read so much good about the SalvageMod...I gotta give it a go!
Thank you for your time.
P.S: Thank you for offering the community both odex and deodex versions! I love themes, but the odex ROMs run way quicker on my phone.
Looks good I'll give it a try later.
Thanks lit.

I noticed there was a 1.4 deodexed Gapps package, but I didn't see one for 1.4 odexed.
I am assuming to use the odexed gapps that were already posted, but wanted to double check.

Ah, I did run into this problem occasionally. I also found that when I would press the power button to wake the phone up when asleep I had to hold the power button down for a few seconds or it wouldn't wake up. I was using the SZ 2.2.1 kernel at the time, and later found that I experienced these things when using the smartass or SavageZen governors. I switched to InteractiveX and didn't experience them any more.
Thank you for your time.
Dang, lithid, I was just about to flash & test your kernel with the Synergy RLS-1 rom and then I saw this: Salvage-Mod 1.4....I was like, "WHAT!" ...Oh well, your new kernel can wait...hahaha.......flashing the latest Salvage-Mod cannot wait. Thank you.

Yes those will work
Team Epic announces a proof-of-concept source-built kernel for the Verizon SGS3, complete with kexec hardboot support. This kernel serves two purposes:
1. To be included in custom recovery images, as it proves the capability of booting-via-kexec custom kernels from recovery.
2. To serve as a proof-of-concept boot kernel, to demonstrate that custom kernels are capable of running on the Verizon SGS3 in its present form.
Please see our blog post, Kexec, and a Proof-of-Concept Source-Built Kernel for the Verizon SGS3, for full details and source links.

Just to confirm, the kexec hardboot approach used here is a bit different from the typical kexec. The main difference is that we actually perform a hardware reboot, reinvoking the bootloader just prior to booting the kexec'd kernel.
The advantage to this approach is that it maintains a high-degree of compatibility and minimizes buggy behavior. The disadvantage is that it requires that the bootloader is capable of booting custom recoveries, which the present Verizon SGS3 bootloader is capable of doing.
Thus, it's very important that folks do not apply any over-the-air (OTA) update, until it is confirmed that custom recovery booting remains intact.
If it eventually arises that booting from a stock kernel/recovery is necessary, then it's likely a bunch of kernel bugs will have to be fixed, and it might still have compatibility issues observed in previous kexec attempts. It's linked in the blog post, but there's a bit more of a technical description of the hardboot approach in this old thread.
Thanks to invisiblek and captjtkirk for testing.
you guys are awesome xda has the best devs ever! I worship you guys!
Wow! Thanks for taking the time to do this even though you guys aren't vzw owners. Great example of how great this community is.

Forgive my paranoia, but does Verizon have the ability to force an OTA without us pressing an "OK" button?
Thanks to all who worked on this, you're awesome!

nope. you have to accept the OTA
Just a question does the kexec allow the sgsiii to use both cores. I have heard that kexec on both the droid razr and droid 3 doesn't allow for dual core yet. Any such issues with sgsiii or is it too soon to tell?

Depends. My rezound didn't ask. I would wake up with my phone in recovery. It would fail to install the update because the stock recovery wasn't there but it never gave me a choice to install or refuse

Say we needed to return to stock, can we just use Odin, flash back the ROM or would their be a bit more to it?
And THANKS! You are just missing the raised finger picture to Verizon over this.

I know this was an issue back in April(?) I haven't read anywhere that this has changed and I am curious to know this as well.

According to Noobnl in the IRC channel, the dual core thing isnt an issue since its a hard reboot so it reloads the bootloader; "this is a more advanced form kexec."
Glad to see some love from familiar faces. This is one if those times when i nuts being on sprint. From the galaxy tab, to the og epic, to the touch, sprint has allowed great things to happen on their devices. Now in big red, it's great to see we can use/reuse stuff across networks.
Big thanks!

In short, yes.
Longer answer:
Traditionally kexec works by having one instance of the kernel boot a second instance directly, that is, by avoiding the bootloader. For this to work, every kernel driver has to shutdown in such a way that the same driver (in the kexec'd kernel) can revive and restart the hardware it controls.
The problem is that some, maybe many, drivers aren't actually capable of doing that. For the most part, it's a feature only needed by kexec, so unless the device manufactuer is specifically targetting kexec support, usually one or more drivers will put some part of the hardware in a confused state. That's the main source of compatibility bugs with kexec.
Now, what we do in the kexec hardboot approach is use the Linux kexec infrastructure to load and stage a new kernel in memory. Then we perform a hardware-level reboot, reinvoke the bootloader, and then at the very beginning of the recovery kernel code, we check to see if there's a kexec'd kernel out there in memory and if so, jump to that instead.
The advantage with this technique is that once the kexec'd kernel is booted, the environment is the exact same as if it was a kernel flashed to the device--there shouldn't be any hardware compatibility issues.
As it turns out, the one compatibility thing we have seen, which is unusual reboot behavior, isn't actually an artifact of kexec. The same thing would happen if you flashed a "boot kernel" to the recovery partition and booted it directly.

This is a temporary mechanism. To return back to the stock kernel, simply reboot the device.
To remove the custom recovery and fully flash back to stock, yes, you would use Odin.
Great work guys. You guys are awesome.
Amazing news!
So when you say you just reboot to get back to the stock kernel, is it a certain way of rebooting?
As in, if you were running soap and a kexec aosp kernel and rebooted and it forced you to the stock Samsung kernel, the phone wouldn't boot right?

For us, this is about creating something we can be proud of and hope you will enjoy.
Please feel free to look at, build, and use our code on CarbonDev GitHub.
We would like to thank CyanogenMod for their device trees, framework/settings mods and their code that was incorporated into this project. We also extend our gratitude to the devs whose code that we have incorporated. Proper authorship has been maintained and can be viewed on our repository.
Special thanks also go to Slim Rom for some of their features, PA, AOKP, and anyone else we may have borrowed commits from that hasn't been mentioned here. If you feel you have been unfairly left out, please - let us know.
While we make every effort to test these builds as much as possible, we are not responsible for anything that may happen to your device, family, pets, or perception of reality. We ask that you do your part to know your device and know how to recover from problems before you flash! If you have questions, ask your fellow users or ask us in #teamcarbon on freenode IRC.
Features
Simply stated, we can't really list features here. There are too many and they change too frequently, and we now support a truly insane number of devices. Chances are, if you like a feature, we have it already. Seriously.

Support
We spend an astonishing amount of time developing this software. We can't spend much time on XDA as a result, so if you need support, please try the following:
1) Search. Search, search, search. Yes, you. I don't care how unique or important your question is, it's very likely someone has adressed it already. Especially if you're even close to new at this.
2) Read our FAQ, which can be found on our goo.im page linked above. It's new, but expanding fast. Just like us!
3) Ask a question in your device forum. Someone will no doubt try to help you. Warning: this help may come in the form of telling you it's a dumb question that has been asked before. See step 1 - such are the perils of asking questions when you haven't done the research yourself. Android is about helping yourself.
4) Join our G+ Community: http://community.carbon-rom.com This is where we spend the bulk of our time and the best way to reach us and other community members. We update and frequent this community far more than XDA, simply due to time constraints and the convenience of G+.
5) Ask a question on our IRC channel. Connect to #teamcarbon on irc.freenode.net or click here. You'll find several other Carbon fans and usually one or more devs as well. Please be polite.

I did manage to get it to boot after a fresh install on system 3 but since wifi wasn't working, I rebooted the phone. Unfortunately, everytime I go to system 3, it's stuck at the black screen.
Haven't heard from any of the other guys who have installed it, so I'm not sure if that's just a problem with me or someone else is having it too.
Appreciate your help and concern. Back to MoKee for now.
i cant turn on wifi,even reboot three times.

Yes I've noticed this as well. I dunno how u had issues at first. Mine booted and rebooted fine on system 3 coming from MoKee and JBX. Beautiful work here man! Love it so far. Only issue is what's quoted and I kinda noticed a bit ruff on the vibration, as I type this I notice vibrate is feeling maxed out lol. Hands are tingling lmao! Great work man! Keep it up! :thumbup:

Couple of additions that would make this ROM even better are - fixing the Halo ofcourse, pop-up installation and uninstallation windows (like in MoKee) and ofcourse kernel additions for OC and better support for 4.3. Great work so far!

So in short, halo is what needs attention.. And as for pop up installation, I think that comes when you change dpi? I don't use this rom on a regular basis..
