Razor's kernel is the Defuse kernel but yes, you can flash the different kernel over your current rom. But the Defuse kernel does appear to have a couple bugs in it so I wait wait a little bit.
thank you very much
if the android version is the same and they are for the same device it is very likely for the rom and kernel to be compatable. exceptions touch wiz roms need touch wiz kernels, aosp kernels need aosp roms, sense roms need sense kernels. there are some rare situations where a rom and kernel build need to match like some gingerbread versions for the i9000 dont work with kernels from certain other gb versions. but since we only have 2 firmware builds and they dont have a conflict between them you should be able to use any rom with any kernel unless the des did something wierd to get a feature working.

I hear people talking about updating kernel on a CWM rom, im currently using CoreDroid DHD v5.4 With the kernel that came with it. im checking my kernel info and it has a date of march 9 on it. so can i use the kernel update utility 9 on this rom to update it. also i here people talking about changing kernels whats that all about.
Thx in advance
CWM is merely the acronym for ClockWork Mod, the recovery.

Ok i meant a kernel for a coredroid DHD rom, is there any kernels
I just made a post about this yesterday when some one was asking about battery life, but I will post again.
The only roms that have custom kernel are the ones who's source has beeen released, or have been built from source ie. Froyo builds, CM7 builds, Miui builds. None of the ginger bread roms based on the leaked DHD have custom kernels, and probably won't have custom kernels. HTC is more then likely not going to release the source to their leaked rom. Also when flashing kernels you don't not want to switch bases, meaning you don't want to flash a CM7 on Coredroid (gingerbread) or a Froyo based rom.
If your still a little confused about what a kernel is, think of it this way ( I forget who said it in a thread before me), but a Rom is what you see on the screen, and a Kernel is what makes it happen.

Close but not quite, there is a custom OC/UV kernel for several different gingerbread roms. here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1050106
i have used this kernel with coredroid 5.4 and it works flawlessy

Very well it came out four days ago. Even though what I said is still true there still isn't a custom kernel from the dhd source, because HTC more then likely won't release it. Good to see they ported one though.

true, i'll give you that one. that's the nice thing about linux through it's open source nature makes for the ability to use one devices code to create a work of art for another device.
Coredroid is using leedroids latest custom kernel. It doesn't work well with 5.4 but works greatttttt with 6.0!!

How would i got about flashing a new kernel?
im using this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1376027
and will flashing a kernel trip the counter?
are all kernels compatible with all roms?
can i use an att kernel on my 727r?
and which kernel would you reccomend? i hear a lot about Da_g?

Flash the Kernel thru CWM and you wont have to worry about the counter.
no Not all Kernels are compatible with all roms, but we only have four right now any way. and one is a CM7 kernel so you only use that with CM7.
the others are Romracers stockish kernel, Da g's OC kernel, and the Stock kernel itself.
just read the kernel OP it will tell you if its for rogers or at&t.
i personallly dont like to recomend roms and kernels....so my advice is flash away and find one that you like
good luck
thanks for the reply... im interested in the oc kernel, have you tried it? and do you think its worth it to oc? is it stable? i know its has a fast processor on stock so i dont know if overclocking pros really outweigh the cons.

i personally LOVE to OC, but Da G's kernel does have its hikups....and i have been using his Kernels since 0.1 and its now on .43 the overclocking is great, it does seem to make the roms run smoother, but i seemed to suffer alot of SOD's while using his kernel. but they are patches that you can run, like the one in TPCs Rom Thread that may fix that.
but not eveyone experiances the same stuff. again i would just try them and you make like them.
the stock kernel is fast though, but once we get a stable OC kernel believe i will be oc'ing to the max trying to melt my phone.....
Just flashed the CM 7 kernel with the Sky Ice Cream ROM. Now my phone won't go past the Samsung boot screen and I can't get it into recovery. NEED HELP PLEASE!!

I have ICS, and i was just wondering what would happen if i installed a gingerbread ROM? and just another question with kernals, if i download a kernal are some only for ICS and some only for GB?
thankyou.
Well you can flash Gingerbread rom and kernel and you will no longer have ICS. If you wanna go back to ICS just flash any ICS rom and Kernel you will be good.

There are usually dependencies between kernEL and non kernEL code - non kernEl code is referred to as "userspace"... Typically you can't just swap a kernel meant for one version of android with another, unless the manufacturer has done a great job of abstraction. Not so in the case of most phones.
thankyou both for your replies
Hello, I have been doing some reading here as well I sit on IRC on the #skyrocket channel which is pretty quiet these days.
I am using TPC GB rom build with Da_G kernel, and so far (since november 2011) it has been solid.
I have tried alienROM for the ICS leak, but it is missing some kernel features I like, however is a decent ROM. I was wondering if there were any nice ROMs or Kernels for ICS yet, or are well all still waiting for samsung to release an official ICS build so proper kernels can be made. It has been quite awhile and are we even getting an official build for the I727R (Rogers)
I wanted to post here if that is OK because I have not been finding too many answers to what I am looking for. I am in no rush really, but wanted to start thinking about tweeking my phone. Would it be best to play with leaked builds or just wait till some official builds come out then wait and go from there. If anyone has suggestions that would be great.
Thank you for your time and comments.
Hi. All the roms you'll find here are decent and will each appeal to different people and their needs. I've found the latest SkyICS to be excellent in many ways. Try a few different ones to see what you like. Any will be better than stock GB.
As for kernels, there are a few out, but none will have all the features we like about a custom kernel until the official ICS is released because -as far as I know - the code for the kernel hasn't been released yet.
For example, we won't have overclocking until someone can tear into the official released kernel.
I am not a developer, so please, someone correct me if I'm wrong about this.

Without kernel source nothing can be done. No oc, no uv, no bln.

Thanks for the reply, I am on GB (not stock) running rom / kernel (4.3.5) just can't decide on what ICS I want to go with. So I will continue to read away

Doesn't the Cymbaline kernel have BLN now?

Yes. He posted that before the t989 source dropped. Cymbaline used fixes from that source. We also have instigatorx kernel for aosp based roms.

Hi my skyrocket is currently running 4.0.3 ics leaked rom, and I was wondering if i could flash custom kernel on ics rom, or would I have to stock gingerbread to use custom kernel. I just do not want to get bricked etc. Thank you.
It depends on the ROM, if it's SKY ICS or some other modded Samsung rom, then you pretty much have to stick with stock, or do some research because I don't really know what Kernels are available for it. Maybe someone with more knowledge will chime in...
If it's AOSP based (CM9, AOKP, Chimaira, etc), then the only other option I know of is InstigatorX's kernel, which seems to work quite well. Pick a stable version, since the latest has issues with the camera. The stock kernel for CM9 is also quite good, but the CPU governors added in Instigators are great for saving battery.

You can flash cymbaline. Don't try to flash instigator's cm9 kernal you aren't using an aosp rom. Cymbaline fits your deal nicely. You'll dig it.
