Great Silver is back!!!!!!!!!!!!
silver... excellent work again amigo! I'm testing the UCLA3 kernel zip you PM'd me and all good so far. I wiped cache partition first, then CWM flashed the kernel zip. Script worked without a hitch. Rebooted, and confirmed kernel playing well so far. Did a SpeedTest.net test and it's about twice as fast on 4G (I was getting around 3700 kbps on KK1 kernel... now on getting ~ 8100 kbps on UCLA3 kernel). I already had the UCLA3 ROM and UCLA modem flashed but the missing piece was this kernel.. very happy with it so far.. great work guys.
I've just applied the kernel through CWM after wiping cache, delvik and battery stats..rebooted and Kernel still shows 2.6.35.11 under "about phone"!!
The patch applied successfully with no errors

By the way that fixed the tethering problem
Silver, you are a goddamned hero. Thank you good sir!
Thanks UCLA3 radio and kernel work great on stock-rooted odexed 2.3.6 ROM.
CIQ was disabled on my phone before the kernel update, now it's ALL GONE!
Thanks!
Thanks!! Confirmed it works on Alien 5.5. Will have to test and see how it performs. Looks good, till now. Of course, I had flashed the UCLA3 radio on top of Alien 5.5, first.
The only thing is the Alien 5.5 boot animation is gone and you have the AT&T rethink possible wallpaper (no animation), initially I thought it was stuck, but realized the animation is in the boot.img (I am guessing), it does boot up.
Awesome silver, thanks bro.

...my thanks are maxed out for the day. But will hit you with some tomarrow
Just a quick note...
I think I read this somewhere else, but I'll put it here incase it helps someone else. I noticed my bottom 4 touch keys wouldn't light up after flashing the Kernel. I went to settings and saw that they were still set to "stay on" (which I keep that way). I unchecked the box and re-checked it and they only stayed on until I left "settings" and turned off again. I went into Clockwork Mod and "fixed permissions" and all seems to work fine now...lights are lit. Very simple but maybe it will help someone else.
I did pretty much the exact Same thing and my buttons light up as normal.

Seems I spoke too soon. It worked for a while, but then I noticed when I hit the power button "to put the phone to sleep" they sometimes come back on and sometimes don't? I tried fixing permissions and wiped the delvik cache a couple of times already.
I only "wiped the delvik cache" before I installed the kernel. DO you think I need to go back and take some additional steps and try to re-install the Kernel?

Why nobody has made this up yet is beyond me. I tried searching and it doesn't seem anyone has released the new HTC kernel by itself, only packaged in a ROM.
So here you all go.
A couple points of interest: (READ EVERYTHING)
This will overwrite your /system/build.prop as some values have changed for the new kernel. I am too lazy right now to write a script to only make the needed changes.
If you have tweaked your density, it will be reverted to stock.
Your ROM version will also show as "Mixed 2.6.32.15" in settings / about / software.
If you flash anything after this that modifies /system/build.prop, and is not designed specifically for this kernel, best of luck to you.
In keeping with my current practices, flashing this (except maybe in strange cases) will NOT require you to wipe *anything*, including caches.
This should be compatible with most any ROM. Right now it is only confirmed working on VaelPak 2.1.
Cheers!
As always, I am not responsible if this blows up your device. It is happily running on mine.

I don't see how my phone has been up for 14 hours last it was plugged in was at 11:30 am central time and I've used the hell out of it for 4hrs 30 mins and battery is at 53% its 4:30 pm central time. This HTC kernel is better than any other HTC kernel made for the evo.
I unchecked enable on always mobile data and turned roaming of to just Sprint towers lowered screen light a little bit unabled haptic feedback on keyboard and rom and also added the undervolt.ko to the rom I found on this website some where in the evo development section. Also using autokiller app and no set CPU or overclock widget.

Got back to your nand backup, I ALWAYS wipe the dalvik cache and cache when flashing a new kernel. Try that.
Tried this as well no go as of now
I think this is why no one has posted up a flashable kernel with this kernel cause I've tried this kernel on a 3.2.6 Rom back when this kernel was first available and it was a no go.

Thanks a lot. Honestly, I really hate ROMs. I much prefer being able to essentially build and customize myself without someone else's customizations. Update.zips are the best.
yeah I think this needs the 3.28.651.1 framework
Would you guys want a update.zip with just the kernel and framework? Or just the framework? I figured most roms would be using it by now (the framework at least)
Also, caches can be wiped in the update script, which I do. Before and after the flash for good measure. Cache, boot cache, and dalvik.

Hello all,
I installed the latest Sky Ice Cream Sandwich ROM RC6.3 and used faux123's kernel but have issues where my skyrocket never goes into a deep sleep causing a severe battery depletion.
Using CPU spy shows instead of a deep sleep my device is CPU is at 384GHz.
Can anybody help with suggestions? I tried Da_G's 0.42 kernel with the ROM and battery isn't great either.

Turning off wifi makes a big difference, letting it go into deep sleep a lot more than 384
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
I agree with trying out the .3 Da_G kernel. I was having some of the same issues you were having (Deep sleep, battery depletion, bricking a phone for example). Try that out.
How do I change from one kernel to another?
Download the kernels and place the .zip's on the root of the SD card. From there, since most of them are CWM flashable, boot into recovery and wipe the cache and the dalvik cache. From there, install from SD (or internal SD) and you're good to go!
The most popular ones are the stock ones, Da_G's, or I've even heard of some people satisfied with the Cyanogen ones, if that's your thing. If you still have issues try flashing a stock kernel and/or rom. It never hurts to start anew!
Here you can find instruction on changing kernels!!!!!!

Mainly I was wondering if doing that will erase or overwrite the other flashed kernel I have. Sorry if I left some info out before.
Oh. Well. Yea, they will. If you want to keep them then go ahead and make a nandroid backup.
Now that I think about it, I heard somewhere that flashing stock kernels before flashing another custom one reduced chances for bricking, but, I haven't practiced that and I'm doing just fine. Might be just me though.
OH shi** i m sorry. I updated the thread and that's y it did that. Forgive me for doing that. Here is the rite one.

EDIT: wow. don't know why this thread wasn't refreshed for me. sorry you already answered that a while ago haha.
OK. I started over by installing sky ics again. Then CPU spy. And as soon as I install set CPU, my phone will no longer go into deep sleep. Even if I uninstall set CPU. Now what.
Update- I cleared set CPU data under manage applications, then installed, then UNPLUGGED THE STUPID CHARGER!!!
Now it gets deep sleep again. I guess I will have to try system tuner with the next OC kernel I try..
The problem is Setcpu. Use No-Frills CPU instead.
I may give that a try
Update - I flashed latest faux123 kernel and I checked CPU spy and i'm overclocked to 1720000 with no tuner app installed. Problem is definitely with set CPU.

Thank you everyone for the quick replies... There are two KERNELS submitted by Da_G:
1- [KERNEL] AT&T/Rogers dag .42 1.83GHzOC/UV/init.d/BFQ/BLN/FUSE/adb root/optimized
2- [KERNEL] Cyanogenmod Skyrocket Kernel 0.43pre v4
Which one do I use? I attempted to use the Rogers 0.42 kernel
Oh BTW is anyone experiencing any SoD's with the latest Sky Ice Cream Sandwich ROM (RC 6.6). I've gotten two with less than 24hrs since I installed it yesterdat .

go based on what you are using. and which device you have. If you are using a rogers device and are NOT using the CM7 beta rom, then yes the rom you listed is the correct rom.
Terribly sorry but the search function is not working for me right now and I'd rather get this sorted today. I am completely new to this game and just installed Jellywiz.
I use SetCPU to overclock, and previously on the stock rom when I flashed Invisiblek V2 Kernel in EZ-Recovery, it allowed me to OC to 1.8Ghz in SetCPU.
Unfortunately now with Jellywiz installed, when I flash Invisiblek in EZ-Recovery and hit reboot recovery the screen stays dark, blue light stays on, and the phone just vibrates in these intervals.
My device is an SCH1535, what can I do to overcome this?

So why is it a bad idea to flash TW kernel on JB rom? Is it because it's made for ICS? What would starting over fix?
I just want to be able to get SetCPU to allow me to OC to 1.8Ghz, and the only way I knew how to before was flashing to Invisiblek in EZ-Recovery.
Just reflash jellywiz. And yeah it's JB and not ICS, their not compatible apparently.

Kernels are touchy things, and on the GS3 they are definitely tied to the base ROM you're running. An ICS-based kernel won't work (or boot) on a JB ROM. Until Dan ("invisiblek") gets his hands on the source-code for the kernel, we're all SOL for overclocking using what we're used to.
I've seen/heard that the KT747 kernel will work on the VZW I535 with JB, but I've yet to prove it myself. It boots, but it comes up with nothing but lameness, so I had to put it down and reflash my BOOT.IMG using CWM "Advanced" mode restore so I just grabbed the kernel out of the backup and not God and his dog and everything in between.
Why are you flashing through EZ recovery???? I'd say flash through normal recovery. Why take the beaten path?
Again, another example of somebody making their life tougher.

Running CleanROM 5.6 with LeanKernel 1.6 seems to be a great combination.
I agree with you. It was my daily driver for a few weeks and I absolutely enjoyed it. It was a professionally handled rom.
Best ROM out there by far.

I absolutely love this Rom as well. Unfortunately for me I will be reverting back to rooted stock. That's the only way my GPS with Maps will work. I tried EVERY suggestion recommended. I tried GPSFix. I tried GPS Status. I even followed instructions on flashing A GPS PATCH and it installed correctly. Tried again same thing. Locks but when I start moving it jumps around. I try to navigate somewhere it shows me in another state. All messed up. When I go back to stock with root I have no problems. Oh well.
Edit; Went back to stock everything on my phone and still having GPS issues. I guess I'm gonna have to go get myself a replacement phone
I too have had the best experience with CR. Jumped on board around 2 or so. I've tried others but keep coming back to CR. Best battery, stability, and support. Thanks Scot!

5.6 is the newest.
When new update is released. Down load ROM and simply dirty flash over 5.6
For lean kernel. One must download and place in SD card.
Boot into recovery.
Flash or install ( whatever you call it) the kernel.
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Fix permission.

Does anybody know if a 4x5 launcher is available for this newest version? I've found some old ones and flashed them to no avail.....
Stock Kernel
Background:
When Verizon released the ML1 Update you had two options, take the new boot-loader and be locked or NOT take the new boot-loader and remain unlocked. If you choose the latter of the two options the firmware and boot-loader never got updated. This seemed Ok but it would cause WiFi not to work because of the way Verizon coded the kernel to look at the new firmware (from my understanding). If the firmware was not the new version thee WiFi would just never turn on.
Intent:
As the name implies, this is just a recompiled stock kernel without the "WiFi bug" for Android 4.3 / ML1 based ROMS on the OLD UNLOCKED firmware! If you have taken the new firmware (aka: the 4.3 OTA) then you dont have to worry about this! It does not apply to you! This is Only for people on the OLD UNLOCKED firmware!
Why no features added?
Not everyone wants a super duper overclock kernel with 10 million features. Some prefer the simplicity of stock. I am one of those people! This is just a STOCK kernel with no mods other than working WiFi for the ML1 base on the old unlocked firmware.
Note: Version 2 is posted with the exFAT option checked for those using exFAT. Oversight on original build!

Funny thing is... This is a PURE stock build. BUT... here are some oddities I noticed over the stock kernel from VZW...
1. The compiled size is smaller (odd)
2. I used the defconfig that samsung said to use and I dont think its the typical Verizon defconfig. The name just seemed weird.
Its been a long time since I did a kernel so my observations may be pointless...
But I can agree with your statement that it is very smooth. I am running the stock roooted ROM I made with this kernel and I am tempted to get rid of my Note 3!
I think Samsung posted the wrong source or modified it after Verizon used it for the ML1 ROM (or I downloaded the wrong one!!!! lol).
Hmm, that is interesting...

Thanks. Will test to see if I get better battery life over lk. Also grabbed your ml1 ROM version. Been waiting for the release. All previous ROMS have been the best. Thanks.
I usually keep 1 custom kernel and 1 stock kernel around, thank you for bringing the stock option!

Just so you know the ML1 ROM has this kernel in it.
AS far as battery life, Im sure LK will be better, ITs a tweaked kernel.
This is a pure stock build no changes to the code, AT ALL.
I didint even add in a build name. I just did make defconfig followed by make -j16.
The odd thing is, WiFi just happens to work but the Verizon build doesn't. Go figure!
Thats it!
After installing this kernel on old&slows ROM, my SDcard discounts and won't remount. I have wiped both caches and rebooted.
Anyone else having this issue? I don't have time to clean wipe right now, but I will try that when I have some time.

Just noticed I'm having the same issue. Can't mount.
Hmmm... I will check in about 5 hours when I get home.
I talked with one of my Site Admins and he said he had no issues running this kernel with SD Card. Granted he is running it on "my" stock rooted ROM.
What size are ya'll running? and what format?

32 gig, exfat.
Just flashed your Rom. Same issue. Wiped cache, dalvik, and system.

Hmmm, strange
I have a 32 Gig I can test when I get home.
I just tested a micro SD a guy at work had in his S4.
Had no issues with it.

Went back to your kernel... SD card not working again.
Going back to lk. I'm a fan of stock bits. Looking forward to a fix. Thanks for your efforts on this kernel!
Working fine on slow&old 12/31 release. No problems with the SD card. Came from lean kernel and this actually seems snappier.

How big is your card? Trying to narrow down why gnader and the other guy are having issues. Thanks for the feedback!
