My guess is you are using a custom kernel along with the install? Carbon 1.6 is based on 3.4 kernel and 1.6.1 is based on 3.0 kernel. So if you flashed 1.6.1 and flashed a 3.4 kernel, it will not boot. Carbon 1.6 and 1.6.1 are the same functionality-wise but they just use different kernel versions.
If you are using a custom kernel, check out the kernels OP most likely the dev has a couple links one for 3.0 and 3.4.

[Q] [i9020-T] Trinity UV Kernel Flashing

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.

[Q] Custom Kernel

Hi my skyrocket is currently running 4.0.3 ics leaked rom, and I was wondering if i could flash custom kernel on ics rom, or would I have to stock gingerbread to use custom kernel. I just do not want to get bricked etc. Thank you.
It depends on the ROM, if it's SKY ICS or some other modded Samsung rom, then you pretty much have to stick with stock, or do some research because I don't really know what Kernels are available for it. Maybe someone with more knowledge will chime in...
If it's AOSP based (CM9, AOKP, Chimaira, etc), then the only other option I know of is InstigatorX's kernel, which seems to work quite well. Pick a stable version, since the latest has issues with the camera. The stock kernel for CM9 is also quite good, but the CPU governors added in Instigators are great for saving battery.

You can flash cymbaline. Don't try to flash instigator's cm9 kernal you aren't using an aosp rom. Cymbaline fits your deal nicely. You'll dig it.

kernel

Hello,
I have read about kernel for a while.
The phone I have is Verizon Samsung Galaxy s3 I535 with Darkhorse them SynergyRom 1.7 installed. I do not install Kernel yet. I read lot of forums and quite not sure which kernel to install into SynergyRom 1.7. Don't want to have kernel mixed up causing bricks. Have Nandroid backup two back up one on phone and one on pc. I have read this Kernel requires busybox and ez recovery?
I await your reply.
Thanks in advanced!

I am using Imoseyon BETA leanKernel on Synergy 1.7. Use EZ Recovery to flash CWM 6.0.1.0. You do need to have Busybox installed. Let us know how it goes!
Your phone will look like it's turning on 2x every time you turn it on/reboot. I believe this is just kexec doing its thing.

Yes it will boot twice it appears like a boot loop but its really kexec doing its thing...I personally use inviableks kernel...can be installed with ez recovery

The last time I used invisibleks v2 it did not auto reboot? You had to reflash on each boot in recovery..has it since been updated?

I have not had any problems with needing to reflash it I always just reboot recovery and it loads the kernel but does not go into an actual recovery since it is hybrid

Works as charm! Was scared first but it went well! If I want to install different rom will have to flash stock kernel before flashing different roms?
Thanks!

Nope! When I flash new versions of Synergy my kernel goes back to stock. Just remember if you chose Imoseyon's kernel from my link above that it is only for TouchWiz roms.
He has posted an AOSP version over on rootz as well.

+1 I flashed this kernal last night and so far have seen a huge improvement in battery life (not that it was bad in the first place). Overall it seems snappier as well.

Latest version of Zeus/ GB kernels

So I've been running the unofficial ICS and jellybean ROMs and have run into some problems. To avoid that, I'm going to return to stock .3.6 and just in GB ROMs. Zeus treats the battery kindly, so I'm going to run that. However, I can't find the latest version. I can only find v6.0.. the original.
Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1412957
I would like to run the latest version of v6.
In addition, I'm looking to run a good GB kernel. The defuse kernel sounds like it will accommodate Zeus very nicely. I found the defuse kernel v1.4. Will this kernel be compatible with Zeus?
Thanks

defuse kernel is froyo. you'll be in a boot loop treat if you flash it over zeus.
zeus 6 may have been on the infusion kernel by bedwa,..i can't remember...
the choices you can run with zeus: uclb3 stock, zen's a1600 or b1400, entropy's dd.

Phew. I'm glad I didn't do that. I'll look up those kernels. Thanks
Do you know what the latest version f Zeus and where I can find it? I can only find the initial release version, v6.0.

V6.0 is not the initial release....that is like the 6th release...actually more then that if I remember correctly there were also some "x.x" releases as well...you probably won't find the latest as dman took it down and requested no one make mirrors...because I guess people were being dumb and complaining

Hmmmm. I was looking for v6.x.. just could not find them. That would make more sense after what u said. I know there were previous versions of Zeus, like v5 for instance. So over time the bugs should be pretty much worked out. V6 sounds great!

Can't Flash Kernels

So I lost my phone, got a new one, rooted using the casual root/unlock w/twrp method found on this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2332825
Is it possible to somehow improperly root/unlock without bricking? Or that I just got a bad download. I am having random reboots with just about every kernel I flash, some worse than others. I can only run the stock kernel. Running a clean 2.9 and the latest TWRP. Would it be useful to do a full wipe and "reroot/unlock"
What rom are you using and what kernels are you trying to flash?

Right, sorry. Liquid 2.9..tried flashing multiple builds of BMS, a few lk builds, dkp, and team kernalizer kernel. I think that's all of the available kernels for the s3

Clean flashes, freshly installed rom after first boot with the stock kernel, I reboot and flash the new kernel and just never fee stability.

Well, I follow AOSP kernel development a little bit. If I were you, I'd start by flashing a kernel built within seven days of July 20th cuz it seems every two to three weeks, kernel commits render older roms useless. If you don't follow AOSP commits in the more popular rom or kernel threads then I suggest staying away from custom kernels cuz they move quickly. Custom AOSP kernels built on 8/13 won't work on older roms for example.
Edit: I got July 20th cuz LiquidSmooth was last updated on July 20th btw. Just to be clear.
Good advice. I don't follow the aosp commits but I did have the same thought and flashed an older version of BMS (I really want to give it some burn) didn't work... I'll try an older build of lk too just to see where I am.
Really hoping 4.3 somehow resolves this issue for me.
Thanks for your help.

Hope so too. I'm trying out Slim Bean beta 2 with BMS kernel from 8/15 and it's working great performance wise. I'd even suggest trying newer 4.3 rooms (CM, Unofficial CM, PA, etc) just for a couple hours and trying your hand with a custom kernel from 8/13 or newer. Or trying a newer 4.2.2 nightly with a custom kernel. For BMS, I believe GideonX said that 7/30 is the last JB 4.2.2 kernel he's made.
How long would you say you waited before flashing the kernel? I usually flash rom, reinstall my apps, set up home screens, then flash a kernel. Maybe 20 minutes between rom and kernel flash cuz of habit.
