Hey everyone I'm kinda new to the whole kernel flashing business and I'm trying to flash the UV Trinity kernel to my Nexus S. From what I've read I only need to flash the zip from recovery without having to do any sort of wiping. The main problem when I tried this is that the phone went into a boot loop and wouldn't go past the boot animation for the kernel. I'm not sure if it's because the kernel is based off of 2.3.4 and I'm currently running CM-7.0.3. Morfic's thread indicated that the kernel was made for CM7 so I don't know what's going wrong here.

You have a ROM based on 2.3.3, meaning it's not compatible with a kernel made for 2.3.4.
Try flashing the latest cm7 and then the kernel.

Would it work if I tried a CM7 variant that's based off of the 2.3.4 source? I'm going for a stable phone and unsure about the nightly builds at this point. If not I'll probably just wait CM to update and release the rom.

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!!

I was just wondering that if I am going to update my kernel is it necessary to re-install the rom or do I just install the zip with clockwork and away i go? I've searched the forum and couldn't find anything regarding it, I would appreciate the help! Thanks.
you can just use CWM to installed the kernels without installing the rom but there might be some compatibility issues, so check before doing it.
Ok because the reason I'm asking is because I have SupeAosp with the Trinity kernel but I'm thinking on either upgrading for Trinity 12 to 14 or trying out James Bond Kernel and I thought that there might be some prep work involved.

just flash the newer kernel on top. be sure its compatable with the rom. if you do have issues, just reflash the rom(that will bring you back to the roms "stock" kernel).
In this case you can test out different kernels but make sure you have the trinity kernel file in the root folder in case which ever kernel you do flash doesn't work out.
In such a case you would just boot into CWM and re-flash the morfic kernel.

Thanks for the insight, I look forward to testing out many kernels!
hey everyone,
does anybody know if these two are compatible to work together or is it something where it's either or? i've been looking through the threads but haven't manage to find any answer for it. i appreciate any answers.
THANKS!
All reports say there is no reason for Pauls patch on custom roms.
oh alright. thanks for responding

Faux kernel is not a ROM. He is using it on that ROM - so the question was not specifically answered.
I had Paul's patch on stock kernel when I first flashed faux kernel, but don't know for sure if it is needed (ie - is the patch of the kernel or something else?).

Let me be more specific in case the OP did not get it. No, you do not need Pauls patch for custom kernels or roms. It is strictly designed for the stock rom to fix a mistake by LG.

The patch was an updated services.jar messed up by lg in the stock ROM. Do kernels also include a services.jar?
If so, then no need when kernels are flashed either, as it would be overwritten. This would be the clarification he (and I) was looking for. If not ??
Note - when I look in a whole ROM zip file - I can find it. Cannot when I open a kernel zip file.

What does that mean.so is the kernel baked into the rom: when we install faux's rom, we automatically get the kernel .

Yes - if you flash faux ROM - you get his kernel as part of it.
But the OP was about using faux (with) stock kernel on the stock froyo ROM. The stock ROM had some messed-up up stuff by LG in the (I have read) services.jar file in the stock ROM.
He asked if he could (should) use the paul patch with this combination. Since the services.jar is (I also believe) not changed by the kernel only, it appears that it should be flashed on top of the stock ROM once (unless you wipe and it is then gone), and then flash the kernel (I did that).
For ALL CM ROMs - different services.jar - no problem. But for EB and other stock based froyp ROM's - I am not sure. If the Dev's built paul's fix into the services.jar -then they are OK. If not, they might be able to use the fix also.
Would REALLY like to hear from one of the Dev's on this. Been all over the forums, and with respect to the kernel only and other than stock froyo ROM's - it has not been clearly spelled out.
its for STOCK roms not custom kernels dont matter in this pauls patch fixes a problem with lg stock rom all custom roms should have this fixed
Hello Xda-developers community!
I have been having consecutive problems with trying to flash a custom kernel onto my Lg G2x.
I can successfully flash any custom ROM with ease, though when I go to flash the kernel, it installs successfully, but upon reboot the device never loads.
I gave it a good 10 minutes to load, though just sits at a black screen.
I'm not sure if I am doing something rong or not.
One of my attempts was to flash the Trinity kernel with CM7 already on my G2x, though upon successful installation, during reboot I simply get about a 5-10 second android robot logo, and then the screen just sits at black not loading.
If anyone would mind helping me solve this problem, or perhaps tell me if I am doing something wrong, I would greatly appreciate it!
If it doesn't boot then the kernel is not compatible with your rom. If you are running CM7 nightlies only the kernel supplied with it is compatible.
I have the latest CM7 release for the g2x at the moment.
I tried the Trinity Kernel with Bionix 2 and CM7, so far the same result.
I saw a you tube video promoting someone who had the Bionix 2 ROM and Trinity Kernel with each other. I tried flashing them both, but it never booted.
Are there any roms compatible with CM7 at the moment?
Or is it only the Eagle's blood ROM that has kernel compatibilities for the g2x.

The only kernels compatible with CM7 nightlies are the kernels packaged with the update zip for that nightly. Flashing anything else is just a waste of time and you are going to keep frustrating yourself to no end.
When you say the latest cm 7 for the G2x do you mean the latest nightly or the latest stable release 7.1? If you have the 7.1 you should be able to use the trinity ELP but if you are using a nightly build then you can only use whatever came with that build as Jboxer said already.
Edit There are a few that you can use for 7.1 not just trinity ELP just look in the thread for each kernel and they say which ROMS they are compatible with. Also eaglesblood 2.4 is based of cm7 so if it workes on EB 2.4 then it will work on cm 7.1. Also when you flash a kernel make sure you clear the cache and dalvik cache. And wehen you boot up for the firsdt time after clearing the dalvik cache it could take 10 min to boot up mikne usually takes about 5 minutes but I have seen it take up to 10 so keep that in mind.
I solved the problem, thanks! Now I was looking around for roms and I found an miui rom for the g2x.
I like the ROM, so any idea what kernel would work with that?

Under developement, faux's kernels (based off cm7). 3 different types, cm7 stable, nightlies and a different version for nightlies. Miui works with one of his cm7 kernels. I believe it is 44s

About your question, i got running on my lg thrive, which is identical in hardware to the lg phoenix; gingersnap, gingerdx, gtr, cyanogen mod 7.2,, only that ones...
Currently joban's kernel is only supported in gingerbread, even in those roms is kind of unstable...
Now, we have a new kernel from the great developer DJnoXd, it supports Ice Cream Sandwich, and Jellybean... But if you are only interested in Gingerbread, tell me and i will pm you a better method to get roms
DJnoXd kernel will work on GB also. Arjen has a kernel that will work on GB too.
joban kernel is old base band... so any p500 rom that is obb will work.

can you give me the link to the rom and kernel your useing
Do I flash the rom then the kernel right after or do I flash the rom, boot up the phone then go back into recovery to flash the kernel
Just figured out djnoxd kernel no good for gb. Found in original development here on xda
Arjens is found at androidcentral under Phoenix / thrive thread
Sorry no links .. on phone.
Flash rom. Reboot recovery. Flash kernel. Recamend full boot. Then flash gapps. But can flash gapps after kernel
iirc I just read the new kernel runs on the p500/505/509, I don't know which one is the phoenix tho
