Kernel for JB - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I tried several kernels for JB. Air, Matrix. None of them worked for me. After flashing it, it won't boot the system and turn off the device. I currently use JellyBelly 1.5. Any idea? Is it ROM bug? Thanks!

I can't use Adam's Jelly Belly rom, as I have a NS4g, but I do follow his work. I believe that his rom comes with Thalamus kernel, and if you want to flash a different kernel, there is a file which needs to be deleted before doing so. There was quite a discussion about all this in his thread in the development forum. That's where you can figure it out ... good luck!

same for me
Hey i also tried to flash thalamus kernel but my phone didnt start it was hanged up on the boot screen. I am using Nexus S i9023 SCLD version stock rom 4.1.1 build JRO03E and it is rooted.
Can anyone please help me and also which other kernels are supported on stock rom.

There's a script you must delete in the init.d to use another kernel in Jelly Belly 0.1.5
Otherwise, your phone will poweroff

i have also a i9023 and i have allredy flashed bedalus kernel, thalamus and air kernel also matrix and vta2 worked for me..
i use JRO03E DX stock ROM..never had a problem
S.R.

(I use stock JB with Air #153, and got i9023. No OC, no NSTools, yet. I have no problem.)
On stock:
Try to do a factory reset/wipe data, or reflash the OS from scratch using factory images. And right after flashing the rom, flash the kernel. Even before installing any apps.
On JBelly:
For this, I think the Thalamus kernel is the best, the rom is come with it, so they made for each other If this kernel works with it, i think it is unnecessary to switch to another kernel right now.
Because JB kernels are not final yet, are "immature", there can be compatibility issues, collisions between (certain functions of) roms and kernels.
After a 2 or 3 releases, both on rom and kernel side, there will be more complete and stable versions.

Have you tried to fix permissions ?

Go to /etc/init.d/ folder and delete a file called 'kernel'. You can read it first if you want.
This is basically a hack that AdamG added to avoid everyone changing kernels and reporting problems about the ROM. He only allows thalamus kernel.

Can please provide me detailed steps of how to flash a thalamus kernel on stock jb because i think the procedure is wrong. I did the following steps:
1. Reboot into recovery( I am using Clockwork Mod recovery touch 6.0.1.0)
2. Wipe Cache partition
3. Wipe Dalvik cache
4. Install the kernel zip file
And after i tried restarting my phone but it hanged up on the boot screen.
Please someone advise me the correct steps if this is wrong
. Thanks in advance

I think the cache partition wipe is your problem. You shouldn't have to wipe anything if you're flashing _thalamus' kernel on stock JB. Just flash and reboot. I've done it plenty of times without problems.

To not have to deal with third party kernel support there is /system/etc/init.d/00kernel that simply powers off your phone if you flash another kernel.
Flash the rom to boot it, delete the file, then flash any kernel you want as you usually would.

wipe is not needed...
but fix permissions should be done...but I´m not sure thats required for all kernel.
S.R.

so this are the final steps...

Firstly, thanks for replying. I need to do the folloing steps (just to confirm because its better to do so and also i dont want to again restore a backup)
1. Reboot into recovery
2. Wipe Dalvik Cache
3. Install the kernel zip file
4. Fix Permissions
or 3. Fix Permissions, and then
4. Install kernel zip file
Please advise the correct steps and thanks in advance.
(I know i am getting a bit more concerned because i had it twice and i am not able to flash the same. So, I am trying to get a correct way and this the best place to ask. XDA rocksssssss<3<3<3)

There's no need for all that... flash jellybelly latest version, boot with the original kernel and delete /system/etc/init.d/00kernel with Rom Toolbox or Root explorer. After that you can flash the kernel that you want. Mind that this will only work for version 0.1.5.1, versions after that one will probably have a framework check to prevent flashing 3rd party kernels because the dev of jellybelly doesn't want to be disturbed with bugs caused by other kernels then not the Thalamus one.
---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 AM ----------
Checked. Version 1.0.0 only allows Thalamus kernel to be flashed. A framework check doesn't allow 3rd party kernels to be fixed so either you stick to the stock kernel of jellybelly or get another ROM so you can use other Kernels.

Panks_4ever
What I always do.. (phone i9023 X-JB Stock).
1. flash kernel zip
2. wipe cache
3. wipe dalvik
4. fix permissions
i only know that thalamus kernel don´t need any wipe...also i don´t know if this procedure is right or not
and i don´t won´t discuss about i only can report what worked for me so try it or not its your decision....
S.R.

thank you

PLEASE - Need Kernel 2.6.32.9-dirty (to fix Skype)

As reported by many users upgrading to kernel 2.6.32.28 will kill Skype on your GTAB ( It will be stuck on Sign-in)
Can anyone PLEASE post link where to download the older
2.6.32.9-dirty kernel?
THANKS
Reflash the custom rom you are using. It will give you the kernel you want. Dont wipe data and you wont lose anything. It will replace the custom kernel you installed with the one that came with Vegan rom.
Thanks, I may have to do that.
I wish there was a way just to extract the kernel from the zip file.

Did you do a backup of the rom before changing the kernel. It is contained in the boot.img in the backup. Just use one of the flashable zips that flash the kernel and replace the boot.img and wireless.ko files from an original nandroid with the one in the flashable zip (ones I looked at the boot.img as in the kernel subdirectory). wireless.ko goes in /system/lib/modules directory. Just use 7-zip and open archive. Delete the boot.img and paste in the one you want. Cloese out 7-zip and then you have a flashable zip with the stock kernel. I have attached the boot.img from the stock GB rom. Make sure you unzip the file and remove the boot.img. Do not try to flash this zip. It won't work.
I went ahead and made a flashable zip to restore the stock GB kernel. A big caveat here is that I have not tested it out myself as I am currently already rocking the stock kernel. If you are a brave soul you can try it out. Based on my experience it should work with no problems. If it does work please report back here and I will make a new thread in the development section. Many people have been looking for this, including myself. Once I venture out to another kernel to overclock, I wanted to have a way to restore to stock if I needed it. For now I am sticking with the stock kernel as I find the phone fast enough as it is.
Make sure you clear the Dalvik cache before rebooting or you might hang during boot or get a boot loop. The first boot will take several minutes due to Dalvik cache being rebuilt.

I will post a thread in the development section once somebody confirms it works. I am pretty confident it will work. Using the same method that is used to flash custom kernels, but I used the boot.img and wireless.ko from the stock GB rom flash.

Not sure if I done anything wrong but here are the steps that i did:
- clear cache
- clear Dalvik cache
- flashed the zip file
- reboot
All I got was a black screen. I waited for about 15 mins but still black screen.

Did you flash it over the stock GB 2.3.3 rom? This is the original kernel and ony compatible with the stock rom. If you are running another rom that would result in a black screen due to incompatibility issues.
I'm using Xboarder's Stock Tweaked OTA Gingerbread build v1.2.2. I don't have the original stock rom. (stupid me, i didn't backup the stock rom before flashed another rom )
Edit: I tried again and it works beautiful. Thank you.
Thank you.

[Q] Why can I not install a new Kernel?

Hi All
Finally plucked up the courage to register and ask a question after lurking for the good part of 2 years.
I've an i9020A and have flashed CyanogenMod 9 v4.0.3 v1.0 which is great, however I wanted to try Steve Garon's kernel which just wont take.
I reboot into Recovery, wipe Dalvik Cache a couple of times, install Steve's kernel which apparently flashes no problem.
I reboot and get the optimising Android applications screen then check my kernel under settings.
It is still the original KalimochoAz kernel and I cannot turn on my wireless.
Now this has happened previously when trying to also update my kernel under CDTDroid's AndroidMe 1.2 which I could only fix by restoring back to 1.1.
Any idea on what may be wrong here guys?
Appreciation in advance.
Lally
Have you tried just flashing again? A bad flash often results in wifi not working and may be the cause of the about page showing the old kernel. Remember to wipe dalvik cache again, too.
Thanks for the reply Harbb, do you mean a re flash of the Kernel or ROM? If Kernel then yeah I have done, same scenario. I'll also try a re download of the Kernel to see if that improves anything but this is much akin to me trying to update from Speedy3 to Speedy4 under AndroidMe 1.2 which was unsuccessful.
Just the kernel, as you've already tried. Just remember to do a NANDroid backup (CWM --> backup & restore --> backup) when you have a stable, working ROM. Can save you alot of trouble if you don't have a relatively recent one.
Also, are you using CWM 5.0.2.0? And could it be that your phone isn't particularly happy about the 1100mhz OC with Steve Garon's kernel?
I'd suggest updating CWM recovery to the latest version.
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
Cheers for the help guys.
Yes, using 5.0.2.0, but something is not right cause I just tried to flash CWR again from within Rom Manager (4.8.1.3) and it gets to around 95% and the app gives 'Rom Manager is not responding.
Looks like I'll have to try a complete wipe and reflash.
Will report back the results.
Forget rom manager all together.
Download the recovery you want to use.
Flash it via fastboot
flash kernel.
I'd do what albundy said - flash a new recovery through fastboot and make sure the bootloader is unlocked (vol. up + power --> bootloader: unlocked)
Ok, downloaded CM9 1.1, redownloaded Steves kernel, reinstalled recovery from fastboot.
Wiped and formatted everything twice then installed from scratch.
So far everything is good, still getting errors on Superuser, but installing again via recovery seems to fix that issue.
Cheers chaps.
Good to know Lally, happy you got it sorted out.
Cheers Harbb, the test will be when I want to change the kernel again I suppose, one complete wipe and install a day is enough

NS 9020t - problem flashing marmite_v4.4 kernel to miui 2.9.7

I'm having a problem flashing marmite 4.4 to the newest miui build (2.9.7).
Basically in cwm recovery and flashed the kernel.
Will say "ununderstandable message 3" and "lid is licked"
Reboot the device and it will get stuck on the miui boot screen.
Tried installing both the "stock OTA" and "All other ROM" version of marmite.
Same message comes up.
Already tried performing a full wipe (actual full restore, format system, format boot), reload the ROM.
Tried wipe cache and dalvic (even though it is not needed)
Just wondering if there is something incompatible or not.
I was able to flash air kernel without issues.
I haven't tried an older version of marmite yet, but will try later.
I'm not blaming marmite, it could be miui as well, or it could be just me.
I'm certain I'm flashing correctly.
I read bedalus' marmite post and saw 2 others with this issue (not same version of kernel or ROM).
The suggestion was that they didn't use the correct kernel for ROM.
I would assume miui would not be categorized as "stock OTA", so I tried "all other ROM" version first"
Am I doing something wrong?
There is a new version 4.5 the message you get I believe is like a joke. It does show however that the installation was successful.
Never experienced boot loops flashing his kernels.
Sent from my Nexus S
Actually, I downloaded that one just now to try and same issue.
It will just stall at the miui (ROM) boot screen.
I am trying some other stuff right now as well.
Really want to use this kernel. :good:
I'll report back later.
Thanks for the help.
Good luck. His kernel offers great speed and stability!
Sent from my Nexus S
For marmite 4.5, did a full wipe again, even formatted the SD partition.
So flashed miui 2.9.7.
Booted to the ROM.
Made sure things seem normal in the ROM.
Restarted just to be sure.
Boot back to recovery.
Flashed marmite 4.5
And it is stuck on the miui loading screen again.
Only thing I haven't tried this time is to fix permissions. (didn't wipe cache or dalvic either)
I'll try it again. :laugh:
Since I formatted the SD partition, it should rule out that it was something on the SD card right?
It's time consuming to copy things back to the NS.
I'll try an older version of marmite afterwards and then an older version of miui.
It should tell me what is causing the lock up by then. I think. :silly:
.... yes I have a lot of time ....
I forgot to mention one thing.
I'm flashing the official Chinese version of miui 2.9.7.
Wonder if that's the cause.
I guess I will download the US or UK version to try as well.
Well if your phone boots with original kernel, it must be kernel related. There's no need to wipe anything before flashing a kernel. Just flash it. It could be that the Chinese rom is different from the others, but that's a guess I'm no expert on compatability.

Took some time to test, but sort of found my answer.
It's the official Chinese miui that's causing the issue.
Well at least some component in the ROM.
I tested with the MIUI UK (miuiandroid) version 2.9.7 and it installed like a charm.
Before flashing the UK version, I tested with earlier versions of marmite (4.3 and 3.5) on the Chinese 2.9.7.
All failed at the ROM boot screen.
I should check with the miuiandroid team and see what they changed that made it different.
When I was testing I did a full wipe, installed ROM, booted ROM, boot to recovery and flashed the kernel.
I didn't even wipe cache or dalvic (which is not needed anyways).
I had to do a full wipe because the ROM just wouldn't boot back up afterwards.
I'm tempted to test with an earlier version of the official Chinese miui and see if it makes any difference.
... too much time and/or no life ... :laugh:
Lol, well it's good you found your answer So its not a waste lf time as you learn from this

If you flash air kernel, and if it worked, I guess marmite's boot.img type can cause a problem.

Not sure what the boot.img type is, but I'll look it up. Thanks.
I posted on miuiandroid forums and someone replied saying that the Chinese version is odexed and not busyboxed.
UK and US version is definitely deodexed, I downloaded them and checked. I haven't found out how to check busybox.
I have a few choices.
1. I can use the UK or US version, since I was able to flash marmite on them... easy way out.
2. Find out how to deodex the ROM and, I guess, how to add busybox (?)... I get to learn more stuff.
3. Use a way faster ROM (eg. Paranoid Android - great ROM by the way!) and flash marmite on it as well... but really want to use miui again.
Thanks guys for your help though. Really appreciate the information. :good:
Glad you found a solution

[Q] Rom question regarding Lollipop.

Hello guys,
I'm still relatively new to rooting stuff on the Nexus 5 (and 7). Running a rooted stock android 4.4.4. with Franco kernal, but with Lollipop now available.. Of course I want to upgrade. I am looking for a stock android 5 rom with prepoot. Is there a prerooted rom available? And do I have to flash stock kernal first before flashing the rom?
Thanks in advance!

Not exactly no. L root is different from KitKat. You have to flash a permissive boot.img (kernel) before flashing SuperSU in recovery.
There are flashable zips. There is one linked in the "guides and info" link in my signatrue (see section 6)... But you still need to flash the chainfire or @sykopompos Permissive boot.img

Thank you for the quick reply. The rom over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...-android-4-4-3-ktu84m-rooted-busybox-t2557523 may suit my needs indeed. Although he's saying "-Don't install SuperSU (won't work, must use CF-Auto-Root)"
So, in my situation.. what I should do would be:
Factory reset
Flash rom with TWRP (my recovery)
Flash radio
Use the latest CF-Auto Root (for Lollipop)
Do I keep my Franco kernal?

I wouldn't use CF autoroot myself. Its similar to a toolkit which we don't recommend.
All you do is flash ROM.zip
Flash Permissive boot.img (kernel)
Flash SuperSU (It will work in this case)
I'll see if I can find a link to @sykopompos boot image
No, I don't believe franco will work. I would recommend trying ElementalX though. You flash it after the permissive boot.img. You jeep the permnissive stuff as ElementalX doesn't replace RAMdisk (just modifies it) so you get best of both worlds.
Plus ElementalX is a great kernel. You'll also be running teh same setup as me then

Thanks allot for the explanation! Alright, to do:
Put rom on internal memory
Boot into TWRP recovery
Whipe everything, cache, system etc.
Flash the rom
Flash the radio
Flash permissive boot.img
Flash Elemental X kernal
Flash SuperSU
Then reboot
Is that the correct way?

Guys, I got myself in some real trouble I think.
First of all:
I came from 4.4.4. stock rooted with Franco kernal
I did make a backup in TWRP, files are on my pc.
Process:
First of all, I did a factory reset in TWRP
I flashed the rom, radio, kernal for root and supersu.
First boot went fine, although WiFi couldn't be found.
I decided to boot into recovery again to wipe my SD Card
Upon rebooting, phone is looking all black without a real 'launcher', sd card not found etc.
Than:
I managed to push rom, radio, kernal and supersu to /sdcard by adb in rocovery mode
I reflashed all of these, but the same problems occur
What should I do now? I'm ****ting my pants..

Guys, I got myself in some real trouble I think.
First of all:
I came from 4.4.4. stock rooted with Franco kernal
I did make a backup in TWRP, files are on my pc.
Process:
First of all, I did a factory reset in TWRP
I flashed the rom, radio, kernal for root and supersu.

Exactly same problem here, using the same rom. I only flashed the rom. All was fine in the first boot. The problem appeared after I formatted the sd card recovery TWRP version 2.8.0.1.. I tried also to reflash the rom with a full wipe from recovery, but nothing .. black background, no navigation bar, no sdcard and no sim is found.
Try updating TWRP to 2.8.1.0. Wipe system/data/cache/dalvik under advanced and then flash the ROM.
Sorry, only way I know how to flash a recovery is with fastboot, no zips...
Or fastboot flash the factory image but do each img separately as I hear there are still issues using the flash.all script when it comes to the system image.

Will this fix the sd card as well?
Are people having the same problem with clockworks recovery mod?

I fixed it! Please check this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56743199&postcount=10 and follow the instructions.. you may have to flash the seperate .img files though, like I had to.
