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!!

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.

whats the best combo

whats the best combo for rom and kernal for the g2x.
im about to install the eagleblood 2.3.3bg (since it has the stock camera) and was looking for a kernal so i could oc it. thanks for the help
also whats best 2.3.3 or 2.3.4 or 2.3.5????
For the most part, rom choice is going to come down to personal preference. As for kernels, faux's is pretty popular. Personally, I'm running eagleblood 2.3.3 and stock kernel.

I am running Triggers 2.3.5 with Fauxs 0.3.5-sv OC to 1.4Ghz and it is awesome. No reboots or issues at all.
There is no kernel made for the ota (2.3.3) roms only 2.2.2 froyo, 2.3.5 cm, eb2.3.5 so basically any rom that is based off the new 2.3.3 ota will not have a oc kernel for it yet LG didn't release source, and best rom kernel combo is definitely cm, and fauxs latest or morfics it a toss up, but honestly the newest nightly runs so nice u wont need one and it has voodoo built in and boot up time is super quick, idk IMO oc kernels are not needed with this phone it is already sick quick I get 3100 quadrant with cm stock kernel, now if u want to save battery life grab a UV kernel
blondie or brunette?? LOL its all up to ur taste for roms and kernels! Im having a great time using the rom and kernel on my sig! But all depends on you and your phone... (some phones dont like oc/uv), the only way to know is to flash, flash flash and flash (watch out not to become a flashaholic...)
Any rooted 2.3.3 ROM, with the Stock Kernel, and LG Camera App.

Use NVFlash to get CWM. Once you have that you can flash new ROM's, just don't forget to wipe and format /system first.
UV is under-volting your processor via a kernel. You can do that with Faux's kernel. Although for now, I suggest you stick with stock kernels and read up on what other kernels do before applying them.

[Q] OC and Undervolt Kernels for EVO 3D

Hi,
I'm new to rooting and flashing roms but I was able to to install the Sick Sense vx ROM and it is working very well. From the many hours of searching and reading I've done, I understand that I need to install an undervolt kernel as well as overclock kernel.
Any recommendations for...
undervolt kernel that plays nice with Sick Sense ROM?
and OC kernel?
I'm afraid of just flashing anything and bricking my phone. I read in one of the posts that someone thought he might have bricked his phone because of an OC kernel (Silver Needle or something like that) he had installed with Sick Sense vx ROM.
Thanks in advance...
You do not have to install another kernel. The one that is built for the ROM is usually the best. And you can't install 2 kernels...it is one or the other.

I used the Configurator that came with the ROM to try to enable undervolt but it gave me this error...
"your kernel does not support this feature"
But it sounds like others are able to enable to undervolt and unfortunately I don't know how they are able to...
Help?
Thanks...

[Q] Best Kernel for ICS on G2x?

I've recently flashed to an ICS rom, and I am now trying to figure out what the best kernel is to run with it (I'd really like to see one that maximizes battery life.) If you are running ICS, would you mind please posting what ROM you are using and what Kernel you have along with it. Also, take a second to explain the pros and cons of that Kernel so we may all make more informed decisions as we prepare to potentially flash one...
Thank you kindly!

I would say Faux123 its a good kernel and its good for a good battery life.

Does faux123 support voodoo sound? Also is it compatible with Hellfire?

I believe Hellfire already added faux kernel in the newest rom 1.4 check this thread.

Mr. Apocalypse uses Harsh's kernel for Genesis. Owain uses Harsh's kernel for his ICS build. x0xhellx0x uses Faux's kernel for Hellfire Sandwich. I think you can use those as starting point. I like Morfic's Trinity kernel because you can OC to 1560.

Everyone is. NVIDIA has yet to release ICS drivers... so there is sub optimal video on all ICS builds.
We await the official release.
i would recomment the harsh kernel 1505 oc i love it smooth nice battery. i'm against faux it's good in battery and fast, but when you try doing too many stuff it starts hanging
