What's ZW Fascinate stock kernel?

Hi, I'm not new to rooting/flashing. My sister-in-law wants her Fascinate to be faster and lag free. So I'm here to help her but got questions. Is EB01 the stock kernel? I'm looking a stock kernel + voodoo. She's gonna wait for offical release of 2.2 on her phone so I'm looking for 2.1 stock + voodoo. But if I have too, I can flash a 2.2 ROM and tell her that VZW can screw.
Please and thanks in advance.

EB01 is the version of the latest leak of 2.2, not the version of a kernel.
Search the Development forum for Voodoo. There are quite a few Voodoo kernels out there for 2.1. The ones from jt1134 are pretty popular. Also, adrynalyne has some test kernels available. I was using his Test 5 (non-voodoo) for quite a while and it was pretty stable. There are other developers with Voodoo kernels as well, so look through the search results and figure out what you like best.
The one thing to keep in mind is that some of the newer 2.1 kernels are only compatible with the latest officially released firmware (DL09). You might need to upgrade her phone (OTA) before proceeding with adding these newer 2.1 kernels.
There is a Voodoo kernel available for 2.2 currently, but you would have to upgrade everything to 2.2 (i.e. EB01). There is a thread for it by jt1134, and it's a stock 2.2 kernel with Voodoo and custom boot animation support.

Tiamat Rom 2.0 Manta Ray is great. For me, stock rom is boring. With Tiamat you get all the functions stock 3.2 still doesn't have.

If so could u help me to have Tiamat rom on mine? I think i have the stock rom rooted now.. .not sure tho cuz i dont know much about this stuff.. step by step guidance will be very helpful, thanks alot

You do need to know whether you are rooted and what rom you are currently running. This information will determine what method you use to flash the Tiamat rom.Have you tested to see if you have root? That will make things easier.

thanks okantomi for your advice, the guy who sold this xoom to me told me it's rooted. i even downloaded a few apk apps and they work fine. i am sure it's rooted but i don't know what type of rom its running. could you be able to tell what rom it's running by looking at the info? thanks..Here is info on my xoom

[Q] Any word on 2.3.3 compatible kernels?

Just curious if anyone was working on one. I'm sure someone is but ya know... I'm all sortsa impatient. I have a feeling that a rom based on stock 2.3 with an optimized OC kernel will be smoother and faster than Cyanogen Mod based roms. I'm looking forward to finding out.

no because source has not been released

[Q] How to root stock ICS 4.0.3 on Nexus S i9023

Hello guys, I have a Samsung Nexus S i9023 GSM SLCD version in India. I installed stock ICS 4.0.3 IML74K on it. There is too much battery drain and it restarts 1 or 2 times daily and sometimes gets very very slow. I want to try other ROMs if they help. I want to know how to root it and which are the ROMs which are as close to stock ROM in appearance as possible. Providing the links may do fine.

Instructions are here: http://theunlockr.com/2010/12/17/how-to-root-the-samsung-nexus-s/ In my opinion the best custom rom is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1463437, & combined with this Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1469842, your phone should fly! (or you could try latest Matr1x Kernel also!) Good luck!

[Q] I9003 - Downgrade from ICS CM9 to Gingerbread

Hi all,
I have currently installed ICS CM9 (Dhiru) on my SL i9003. There are a few issues ( tethering, Camera) which make me think of returning back to Gingerbread.
Can someone suggest me what I should do to safely come back to GB ? If possible pls give suggestions on the best ROMs to use ?

Why back to GB! Why not upgrade to JB of loSco's qwerty rom or Xgamers rom of Lolation?? These r good enough for daily usage..
Sent from my GT-I9003.

I want to downgrade to gingerbread too, for app development purpose. As far as I know the android gingerbread emulator won't support gle20 and google play services, so I have to test it on a physical gingerbread.

agree there are great ROMs available for i9003. but if u still want to go to 2.3.6 , follow the
