Just for future reference, there is a search function on these forums. For example, I typed 'custom kernel stock rom' into it and a whole bunch of useful information appeared.
Having said that...
Is your phone s-off/rooted? You could flash a custom kernel provided that the build numbers are compatible. For example, Bricked kernel is stated to work with the majority of roms since it creates a boot.img from the one on the phone. Ultimately I would recommend extreme care and I would personally be flashing a stock-look custom rom if you still wanted the stock experience with the custom kernel.

[Q] Need Rom that can Overclock.

Okay guys hear me out, sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forums, I'm currently rooted on the stock build I believe, my specs are as follows: Build Number: JROO3C.WW_epad-10.4.2.13-20120907. Android Version: 4.1.1. I rooted to remove bloatware, and whatnot, but now I want to overclock, and it can't be done with the kernal I have I guess, Stock rom doesn't support it, So I'm on a quest to find a working rom for my build that has been tested and working properly, I have the TWRP recovery I think it's called. And if you haven't guessed my device is Asus TF300T. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'll be around waiting for a response, so if you need any other question answered or need more info I'll be around, Thanks for all the help.

SO your TF300T is unlocked ?
Apparently, you have the TWRP recovery.
And you want a rom that can overclock ?
So you have several roms, but the best you can do, it's to click to my sig > index for the TF300t, and you will find all roms based on stock and others based on Cyanogen.
The best thing that you can do is to read a little, choose 2 or 3 roms that you find interesting, and try one after one (one week per rom) and you will choose the best rom for you. It will be your choice.

Yes it's unlocked,and thanks, going to try the Hydro rom I suppose. Are the Cyanogen roms compatible with what I'm running? TWRP and Stock JB?

Hydro ROM does not have CPU OC, I think jb blue and [email protected] has overclock. Latest CM 10 is compatible with jellybean boot loader and latest TWRP.

[POLL] Kernel Knowledge

I am experienced with rooting and flashing Roms, but I have never flashed a Kernel. I know how to and I know why I would need/want to. I am just wondering what I need to do if I decide to flash a different Rom or even return to stock Rom. Example: If I flash a Kernel while running The Executioner 3 Rom for my rooted Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III, would I need to restore that Rom's original Kernel before flashing a different custom or stock Rom?

Re: [Q] Kernel Knowledge
Depends on the kernel.
Check kernel thread.
But I doubt you will have any problems

So pretty much I would just be able to wipe data and cache and flash new rom as usual?

Nah when you flash a new rom, it flashes its own packaged kernel as well. If you flash a newer version of that rom, say Executioner 3.5 was released, it would also flash its own kernel so you would need to reflash your other custom kernel if you wanted that back. If you're moving between different roms, you wipe and clear away all of the previous mods/kernels/etc that you flashed from your prior rom.

Questions and help go in Q&A
I changed the title to reflect a POLL rather than question
FNM

what i do is set up rom to my liking, make a nandroid, then flash kernel, if i dont like the kernel i go back back to my nandroid.

Thank you all for the great answers.

Custom kernel for MIUI v5

Hello everyone. Is there a kernel compatible with miui v5? I want the swipe2wake option because official one does not have it.
If there is, I flash it via recovery or?
And, is there a high chance of bricking my DS when flashing a custom kernel?
Thanks

I think that actually is THERE, but the link is dead and dont know what features it includes. And flashing kernel is actually safe, maybe some bootloops or bugs if somethings mess up.

Does rooting a rom performs flashing a kernel?

Hello.
I am new to the forums and i would like to ask a question.
Lets say we have a phone with the stock rom/kernel isntalled. If i root the stock rom do i flash a new insecure kernel or do i just exploit the stock kernel and take root privileges?
Thanks in advance!
