I have a fully rooted phone but sticking with the stock rom, the latest. Is there anyway I can flash a better kernel capable of overclocking?
Pull a nandroid then flash one via CWM. I don't think the current kernels are optimized for the last two versions of stock software. Which version of software are you running. If the kernel sucks load your nandroid and you are back to where you started.

I'm not sure how to pull one from the custom roms. I have OTA 1.63.531.2

None of the currently available kernels will work on a stock ROM higher than 1.28.531.10. So, if you're running the latest 1.63.531.2, you're out of luck.

Is anyone out there planning on making any custom ROMS/KERNELS with the OTA updated? I am running the rooted version, and I' m really missing being able to undervolt... any help would be appreciated.
I have tried all the Desire HD ports, RIL's, APN's etc but the stock OTA has the fastest and most consistent data speeds for me.
Just flash and undervolt kernel. That's what I did.

I can't just use any kernel though right? Has someone posted an undervolt script for the stock kernel with the ota?
you can use any 2.2 sense kernel
There was only one setting changed in the OTA kernel, and it doesn't change anything that we care about (allows use of NAND IDs without using the MSM driver or some such). Otherwise, the boot.img is identical to the stock. You shouldn't have any problem with any kernel based on the stock ace 2.6.32 (g3c08447).
I'm running one I compiled from HTC source with nothing added but the undervolt/overclock tables.
This is The lastest Stock ota Rom, whit the latest radio http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1058042, and if want the a custom rom with the latest ota update use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996368

Thanks again for the help.
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.

it should work on any 2.3.4 cm based roms.
This is my 1st time on this forum!! be gentle!
I have stock rom and trinity kernel, can i get OTA working?
you won't be able to install it regularly because you changed the kernel, but you can always flash a full 2.3.6 rom through cwm. i'm pretty sure you'll be put back on stock kernel though

Just flash the rooted version and you are done.

I'm currently running MIUIus 2.1.20-EN-Pyramid
Kernel 2.6.35.13 Trinity
Firmware 1.45.401.2
Recovery v2.2.7 RC3
So far I've been pretty stoked on this ROM (ARHD is the only other one I've tried but I'm sick of that interface). Here' s some questions I have before rushing out and flashing the new build:
Is the 2.2.3 build really much better than the 2.1.20?
Do I have to superwipe from recovery before flashing?
Is the 3.12 Firmware manditory for this new rom or just recomended?
I'm reading that people are having better luck with the Trinity kernel wich is what I've got installed (installed when I first flashed MIUI). Do I need to find a newer version than the one listed above?
I'm reluctant to update because I've got the phone totally dialed right now. Titanium backup has never been very reliable for me and I hate to loose my themes and settings. How can I retain all this info?
Thanks
For me, it seems faster. Better battery life. Flash this from, then flash the Trinity miui kernel for more stableness

What exactly is firmware? Is it the boot loader? Okay for now I know that an Android phone has Bootloader, Kernel and ROM (android) but what is firmware it is something I've never bothered with. If I upgrade my firmware and I want to use my warranty is it easy to go back to my GB rom and S-on and will my phone provider spot that the firmware is upgraded and if they will is it easy to downgrade it?
About Kernels. Installing new firmware or ROM doesn't change the kernel right? Right now I am using Bricked 1.5 and InsertCoin GB rom but I want to upgrade to ARHD ICS rom. So will bricked kernel be compatible with ARHD ICS? Are all kernels compatible with all roms? What I should install first kernel or ROM if I want to change them both? IF the kernel is not overclocked can I manually overclock the phone using setCPU or similar program?
Which is the best recovery tool? I am using clockworkmod for now but I was wondering should I change it and can I do it?

From Wikipedia:
In electronic systems and computing, firmware is a term often used to denote the fixed, usually rather small, programs and/or data structures that internally control various electronic devices.
It is basicly a small part of software that handles some of the hardware. In the case of our mobile phone, it handles things like the bootloader, battery and wireless functions (phone signal, wifi).
If I upgrade my firmware and I want to use my warranty is it easy to go back to my GB rom and S-on and will my phone provider spot that the firmware is upgraded and if they will is it easy to downgrade it?

The firmware is included in every RUU. The one that is in the RUU gets flashed.

The Gingerbread kernels and ICS kernels aren't compatible, because Gingerbread uses Linux kernel 2.6, and ICS 3.0.

The kernel comes with the ROM. If you want another one, you can flash it afterwards.
IF the kernel is not overclocked can I manually overclock the phone using setCPU or similar program?

Yes, you can.

The best one is the one you like the most . I personally still use CWM because I feel like 4EXT Recovery Touch is bloated.
Thanks. I waited for that reply to begin installing ICS )
