I just wanted to throw my 2 cents in for those who have had problems with their G2X rebooting or locking up and requiring a reboot. I update daily to the latest Cyanogenmod build and have already been going on strong for 6 days without a single reboot/lockup.
Before this, I was experiencing multiple lockups/reboots throughout the day.
Except for battery life, I'm happy with my G2X now.
Ditto.
CM7 is what brought sanity back to the phone for me.
Only reason I reboot is because I flash the dam thing every night.
Can't wait for the RC or stable release.
I guess I must be a lucky one. I haven't had any reboots or issues like that with my G2x. The only reason I rooted this phone was because I suspected the bloat was causing my Audio to studder. After rooting and installing then Ultimate G2x Rom with faux's stock kernel, I can say this g2x is now one of the best phones I have owned. I can't help but wonder how many issues with rebooting and what not would be solved by removing the Tmobile and LG crapware they put on this phone.

Same setup here and no reboots or freezes or anything like that.
I'm running the stock ROM rooted with the faux kernel and I've NEVER had any rebooting or freezing.

Same with me, stock with faux. I also applied paul's fix.
Are you using the pre-UVed kernel? Did you UV even more? Right now I'm undervolted -25mV in addition to the -50mV in the kernel
The only rom that gave me trouble was the unofficial GB leak. Every few hours the phone would be off in my pocket.
All other roms ran like a champ. Been running CM7 since #0, only straying to try other roms for a day. No complaints.
To OP, CM has always been rough on battery life. Try using another kernel and you should get more life.

yea u would def have to restore your stock nandroid backup, because no one has just the stock kernel from lg u can flash, so yes u would restore the backup, then if u wanted to flash the kernel wipe cache and dalvik then install fauxs kernel and your good.......also and if u dont like it which u probably will, just restore the backup again, and u should really try ebfroyo 1.0.5 it looks just like gingerbread and u have the stock camera app and its so quick, awesome rom
Im def going to give ebfroyo a try! Thanks for the help bro!

With a little of trial and error you can now flash any modem whether it be FC09 or FC19 or any other modem without odin! How you ask?!?!?! with a little renaming and rezipping youll be on a ns4g modem or a epic 4g modem without ODIN!!! And noone likes ODIN lol
All you have to do is flash the modified kernel then reboot recovery into the new recovery and then my zip either the FC19 or FC09 modem in cwm with the rom its meant for then either flash your kernel again say your on cm7 flash the modified kernel flash the modem then reflash your kernel like shadow or nyan same thing for cm9 or cm10 just make sure you have another kernel to flash so it will boot this is the only way i have figured out OR you could flash this Kernel then install the modem then after you install just reflash your rom and gapps for a fresh install. if your on cm9 you can keep the kernel installed but if your not after you get done installing the modem install the correct kernel for your rom
For Epic 4G modem!
BEFORE FLASHING MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ANOTHER KERNEL TO FLASH AFTERWARD OR YOU WONT HAVE THE EPIC MODEM! NEXUS MODEM IS ALL GOOD
These Kernels should allow changing modems if your on them.

For NS4G modem!
To be on a ns4g modem go to xboxfanj's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1842037
NOTE:Make sure your not on NS4G patched rom or your baseband will be unknown until you go to the appropriate rom for the modem.
HOW TO:
1.Install any of these kernels above.(doesnt matter which one because it will only be used to flash the modem)
2.Go to advanced in cwm
3.Go to reboot recovery.
4.Now that your in the new recovery flash any of the above modems.
5.Then after you flash the desired modem flash any rom and it will replace the kernel with the one from that rom.
6.flash your gapps then all should be fine.

you mind posting the md5 or sha1s when you got a min?
Awesome job, joemossjr.
Sure will post some md5's for ya
so I'm just on normal CM7, but flashing either FC09 or FC19 doesn't seemt do anything. I'm still on EL30. md5s match. Am I missing something here?
imma try to find your problems
ok i odined the el30 modem gonna flash the Fc09 one real quick hold on
I will see if mine works.

The NS4G modem that was posted in this thread when I first found it works, at least if you're already on the NS4Gmod CM7
Now the question is, which NS4G modem will give an Epic the best signal and data speed... has anyone compared a few yet?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda app-developers app
Its is now fixed just read all the instructions and fallow all directions turns out there is a certian file that is modified in the kernel that allows the writing of modems without odin that i needed so just flash the kernel then install the modem then reflash your kernel

it would really help things progress so we wouldn't have to change kernels every time we want to change a modem but its way better then fooling with Odin and having it fail half way then restart lol

Okey doke, for one I tip my hat to you good sir.
Now, just so I've an idea of how you went about this.The kernel(zImage) is left untouched and this is more based upon the init's correct? The Recovery init to be more exact? Or am I off-base and there are patches to the kernel?

I think no kernel related too.. first though just the updater script on ns4g modem that make it happen

I didnt do the kernel people like xboxfanj and marcusant and UBER and other i may be forgeting made the kernel so its not really mine its actually a modified shadow kernel that for some reason allowed the modem area to be written to and if you werent on the kernel it would say it successfully flashed the modem but it really didnt so i experimented and waaalaaaaah things were starting to peice together and i put the puzzle peices together and now we no longer need odin! i dont know what in the kernel allowed it but as soon as we figure out it will most like be in some other kernels and it would make the process easier and more user friendly:highfive:
has anyone contacted qbking77 to make a how-to-video on this ? ... :fingers-crossed: ( preferrably the REAL qbking77 NOT the blackqbking that has been mentioned in other sections / threads ... LOL )

Hi.
I'm going to root and unlock my device this weekend. I can't settle on a ROM because I want a steady ROM and a really stable ROM. I don't want to be flashing every 5 minutes.
Basically I just want Voodoo sound badly on my device. I am running 4.1.2 at the moment.
Is it possible to flash a custom kernel with stock android?? I have read you need to delete a file before flashing on 4.1.1. Is this still the case on 4.1.2.?
Can anyone recommend a Kernel?
Thanks.

Yes you can do it. I suggest you to try Marmite Kernel v5, it's really smooth and it has a good battery life.With this kernel you can stay with your stock Jelly Bean 4.1.2, like me, and use a custom kernel (Idon't have to delete any file, I root my phone flash the kernel and gooo)
Wow thanks for replying.
I have heard many good things about Marmite .
So I defo don't need to delete anything from stock 4.1.2. Before flashing the Marmite kernel?

Nop, just flash via fastboot a custom recovery (recomend TWRP,link below) and root your phone with supersu or superuser zip.
then flash your kernel (dont forget to wipe cache and dalvik cacche before flashing the kernel)

Hi all.
Well today I gave it a go. I managed to flash my NS using the guide by gullu101. Everything went fine.
I have downloaded Voodoo app and have Voodoo sound at last! :good:
I also flashed Marmite kernel V5, but I have a few questions.
I'm still on stock 4.1.2. and used Marmite V5 Stock OTA zip.
After flashing the kernel I noticed that I had no extra options in the settings menu. I take it because I'm still at stock these options aren't available?? If I was to flash a custom ROM and the 'All Other Roms' Marmite zip I would have these options?
Another thing, after the factory reset I had to install a few things from the market. I also got an notification exclamation error which I had never had before, it said 'need google play services' and took me to the Play store to install it. I have never had to install this app before and I'm wondering what it is.
Thanks.
install NS tools then you will have the "extra options"
Do I need to flash that or can I get that off the market?
Tbh I'm not bothered about tinkering. I just want to know that leaving the stock marmite kernel as is will be fine for my phone?

it's just an app you can download at the google play store.
Hello all,
I made this over at the GNex forums for a stock GNex 4.2/4.2.1 kernel... here it is for the Nexus 7 for those that accidentally flashed a 4.1.2 kernel or just want to get back to stock.
Flash at your own risk, should work just fine though!
UPDATED: Kernel should work now! Sorry about the bad zip before!
Will it work on 4.1.2? I have AOKP on my device, would like to flash this, just need to check if it's safe...

I flashed LeanKernel and then wanted to go back to stock kernel before flashing latest Faux Kernel.
So I have just flashed your kernel but "about tablet" is telling me I still have LeanKernel installed?
If you can overclock then you're still on lean kernel. Either way, I'd suggest a reflash.

It was definetely still on LeanKernel, I tried it twice.
Only issue could be that I was using an older version of TWRP that wasn't updated for 4.2, but it seemed to flash ok.
edit
Ok, tried it again now I have the updated TWRP and the same thing happens...i.e. nothing, it flashes in the normal way but changes nothing.
This is all wrong. The boot.img inside does not match the one from the N7 nakasi factory image and the updater-script is written for the Galaxy Nexus.
Code:
"of=/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.0/by-name/boot");
N7 certainly doesn't run OMAP. Flash at your own risk, indeed.
I urge you to take this down and make sure you know you've got it right before you put it up again. Only saving grace here is you were using the platform by-name method (which just plain won't work on the N7) instead of the actual mmc block names or you could have really messed up some peoples' devices.

Please try again... I have updated my zip and tested it by flashing a 4.1.2 kernel, having the device sit at the X for a few minutes without doing anything (to test a non-working kernel) then flashing my zip, and my N7 is back up and running again.
I am still learning about kernel stuff... sorry about any confusion!

As it turns out, I built a "slightly rooted" JOP40D stock flash kit yesterday (mods to build.prop in boot.img, and su/SuperSU in system.img). I'm posting this reply from that.
I started with the Google JOP40D (grouper) distro to do that. I thought I was going to need to unpack the boot.img from the OP's .zip to do comparisons of the kernels (to answer your question) ... but it turns out that his boot.img has the same MD5 sig as the boot.img from Google's JOP40D... and the OP's updater-script merely flashes boot.img to the /boot partition.
That means one of two things: either the two successive Google releases (for grouper) had identical boot images (which implies identical kernels), or there is some mistake by the OP. (I don't have the 40C distro to check ... only picked up my N7 a few days ago.)
It should work in your specific case though, as you are on JOP40D.
In any event, flashing boot.img is way way more than just a kernel replacement. I haven't looked at it for a while, but I would suppose that Koush's kernel flasher is a much more appropriate technique for switching ONLY the kernel out from underneath an arbitrary ROM.
cheers
That's great info there. I'm searching for the simplicity of just flashing a kernel instead of pushing the entire boot image. Thanks for a step in clarifying this question

My device is Stock DDLF2 so I wanted to flash it with other custom roms hence I flashed it with CF ROOT(DDLF2_CFROOT-05-07-2012.tar) and I flashed the CM9 Alpha14 rom it was working good, then I thought I should flash CM10 based roms so I tried to flash Slim Bean and as per the installation instruction I had to flash first CM10 Alpha4(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1868074) so I downloaded the rom and tried to flash while flashing when it just starts to load package it just reboots into recovery where I cannot do anything, though I remove battery and try to switch it ON after some time same thing, thankfully my download mode works, so what I do is I flash the stock rom again on top of KPE following the thread below:

but same thing, so i tried installing CM9 A14(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1449649) back where I can flash it without any problem and starts just fine, but when I try to reboot into recovery same recovery bootloop. I tried all of those back and forth I don't know how many times but same results. I'm afraid I might brick my phone by doing it so many times. I even tried installing the crackerizer-kernel-final.zip thinking that the kernel that currently i'm might have not supported the kernels in the custom roms that I've been trying to flash but not luck so far.
Please Help, desperately in need of some expert advise.
