new kernel dev needed - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Since we lose intX and his kernel, anyone can take over his kernel and continue to update? Lets take a look the dev forum, except mohans rom and kernels , almost all thread is cm ,aokp roms.

Don't think you're gonna find help this way. Since the only incentive is interest, you'll just have to wait.

I've been thinking about building a custom kernel.. there are some extra modules I'd like to include anyway.
I've built the Linux kernel thousands of times, including cross compile for arm and custom patch sets etc.
But for some reason when i tried building an Android kernel a few months ago it just wouldn't boot no matter what. So don't get your hopes up.
I'll give it a shot though when i get a chance. You mainly want some extra governors? Under volt?
I'd rather start with a fresh cm base and merge in specific things as i go.

everyone need custom kernel for different purpose. for me , i need only badass and the newest interactiveX governor, i think that is all i need. you can PM InstigatorX, he is move to a new phone , so may you can take over his thread. thanks anyway , it is a good thing to have hopes , and wait patiently ......

Ill be doing kernel builds and theming soon. I can do rom builds but we have enough devs for that at the moment with the rookie thread bringing in quite a few new devs. I have done things going on with my 4 daughters but as soon as I get that worked out ill be moving to kernels. Will be about a month before I have my first custom kernel released.

(Q) kernel for cm7

I know but another one. if ther is another one. Cuz I ve seen alot kernel out there like the og kernel. titan. Incrediblekernel. But those don't work with this rom
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda premium
Alright, let me explain what a kernal does, so you'll understand why exactly they don't work.
The kernals main and only feature is to maintain the hardware and how the phone works, entirely. It's not actually Android User Interface (AUI), but what makes the AUI work and give the usability of the phone to the user.
Each phone has a different base kernal, making it impossible to used on a phone with different hardware. The only kernal available for AOSP/CM is the one that it comes with. If you choose to use the Sense ROM's, some of them work with the OC/UV kernal RomanBB posted linked here.

aosp kernals

so i finally did the dive for root and s off wow am i glad that i did... so my question is where are the aosp kernals aka cm7 miui i am wanting to flashing the up to date miui rom of miui.us but i am not seeing any kernals strictly for aosp roms or did i miss something thanks
There's only a handful of custom aosp kernels and a lot of them haven't been updated in a while.
Here's some links for a few

KERNELS aren't bad once you know where in the source to find certain things that might need some tweaking to work on ported roms. Our phone uses the HTC-msm-7x30 and there's tons of msm-7x30 devices by htc out there that a lot of the hardware is the same. If you want to try and port a kernel just search github for msm-7x30. Only device specific things in the kernels are things like the hardware keyboard, camera/video drivers and things like that which you can find in toastcfh's kernel.

This is all correct... I'll also add that the G2/desireZ (vision) is almost the same as the shift, making it, for the most part, easiest to port. I highly recommend dl'ing Toastcfh's source and a few others (scary ghoul, sparksco, x99) so you can compare. It's convenient to have a solid source to look back on when you get compiling errors.

umm and libs and drivers aren't different between the tegra 3 and Snapdragon S4?
Yes they are but you don't need source. I come from the att note which doesn't have official ics or source and we had pa. Pa is a aosp rom like cm9 and aokp and we have both of those. Which shows kernel source is not needed
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
We don't need kernel source for the initial port, though we probably will to get the port bug free (for example, the CM9 build and multitouch).
I tried downloading the PA source a few days back but it kept erroring out (something about signatures not being trusted or something)
It might just be an SSL error on my PC, I'll have another go at it sometime soon. Seems like an intriguing ROM.
Yea its a cool rom. A team mate ported it to the note and its pretty bug free. I haven't looked at their sources lately but have they released source for pad?

if i can do anything to help please let me know, im more than happy to be a tester and provide bug reports/logcats or whatever. also thanks for the responses!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I'm sorry I've looked at paranoid android before and for some reason I was confusing it with Coredroid.
I haz a stupid.
However, kernel source will make building an AOSP kernel much easier. Right now we're using the One S kernel source and while it works for the most part, there are still some niggling issues as can be seen in the AOKP and CM9 threads.
But hell yeah build that thang!
Yea in that aspect source will be great but since the kernel for cm9 seems good it'll work for now. But if any one does do this good luck they put their code everywhere and if you miss one strand it won't work

learn how to build from source first
then learn how to merge cm9 commits into a local clone of paranoidandroid repo
then build it, and upload your device tree to git for others to work on

i727 ICS source now available

After lurking on Samsung open source for some odd weeks it looks as if the ICS source is available for the at&t galaxy s2 skyrocket.
go here and look for SGH-I727_NA_IC_Opensource.zip. As that is the source.
Bingo, ICS Platform and Kernel source.
We can finally get a tweaked out/more stable build :good:

touchwiz or aosp roms will benefit from this. This is the floodgates to lots of **** coming now. Most importantly though, I would expect us to go RC on CM9 very soon now.
Clarification
Well, reading the posts it seems there is general lack of understanding of the Android Kernel source tree. First of all if you look at all the Celox source tree released by Samsung (Kernel) there are all based of AOSP 3.0.8. This is little bit too late . Samsung already had the Celox sources released with SHV-E110S and T-989 last month. All the proper drivers for the SGH-I727 bit are already there in that kernel source.
I doubt, I will find any difference if at all there is any in this new source. (BTW, if people who have not developed kernels Sammy sources that they release are as ****ty as it gets, they NEVER release the manufacturing source, tell me I had to fix a crap load of stuff).
As far as Cymbaline, the source is now so far merged with upstream kernel sources (which is what one does, anyways) that it would be pointless for me to even consider starting with these source. And all those useless govs, bln, oc/uc tweaks are already there in my source tree ..And anyone who is making to attempt those will need to do it exactly the same places ....

I'm in the same boat as you. My wife rooted her T869, and installed clockworkmod and wanted the QuickPanel mod, CRT tv animation, and custom boot animation, that she has on her T989, and when she found out that she couldn't because her rom was odexed, she flashed CM10, and while it did have some of the mods she wanted, it lacked the things she liked about the stock ROM such as the mini apps tray, the music player, and the task manager in the system settings.
She has also noticed that the font is way too small for her status bar, but overall, she misses the look and feel from the stock ICS rom. She just wants something that is exactly like the Darkside Evolution ICS 4.0.4 ROM that she has on her T989. It is based on the stock ICS ROM, but has the tweaks she wants and she has the customization options as well.
I have searched and asked if there was a deodexed/zip aligned rom based on the most recent UVLG7 update for the t869, but despite a few views, no one seems to have an answer. We have been looking into how we can try to deodex it ourselves, and our jobs takes up most of our personal time and so we've no time to learn, but we seemed to have hit a wall, and I am hesitant to ask because I don't want to be judged, warned or banned for asking what others might consider a "noob" question or ridiculed for not having the same level of experience as everyone else around here.
So, in the meantime, I just quietly wait and hope that more options will present themselves.
Actually i can learn how to deodex my tab...bcoz i done deodex my previous device...but, just deodex...i dont know how to tweaks, how to make a custom rom, how to make a custom kernel, how to make a themes(but i know how to change Jpeg file on system.ui and framework-res)...ohh god...i hope we will get dev on our section...

That's just the minimum that are required by them to be released I think, it's not everything. ATM our CM10 relies on some binary blobs for things such as the kernel from the S3 simply because there's no source available to build yourself and there's not enough documentation to write one yourself either.
