Where are the Kenerl Sources for fw 1.2.1 - Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I'm looking for the kernel sources 1.2.1, but i only found the sources for the 1.1 stock rom.
I'm currently a Noob and just compiled a stock kernel for my Sony Xperia Z1, but there is already a good kernel, so i want to try my luck with the tablet.
I think some features like Faux's Sound control and some governors and a bit OC (Yeah I'm a perfomance freak) would make this tablet the ultimate killer ..
But either I'm stupid or blind, I Can't see the sources of the kernel.
Can someone show me them, please.
I'd really appreciate that.
regards

No problems, it just seems like Nvidia hasn't added the data on their page, which still has 2.4 builds.

installing the Xboarders56 rom on G2x

im a newb so my bad if ths sound kind of dumb ... but can i install the Xboarders56 tweaked 1.2.2 on my G2x or the gingerbead update V1.0.0 rom if im running on 2.2.2??????????? how and where do u get the right kernels as well..would appreciate the info
You can. Assuming you have CWM on your device (http://bit.ly/r119F8)
Different kernels do different things, for xboarders ROM there are techinally 2 kernels:
1. The one that comes with it when you flash (install) it: the stock gingerbread kernel
2. Faux's kernel; the latest version can be found at his twitter (http://bit.ly/pMb2kz) (if you don't want to dig through his twitter, latest version here http://bit.ly/qccGDt)
Faux's kernel allows overclocking which increases your devices processor speed. You'll want to install an application like setCPU to overclock.
if you do the LG update you will get the new baseband which cant hurt then it is even easier to root and you get improved service I think.

Kernel questions

Hello everybody,
I'm looking for a good kernel for an ICS rom (I'm still on stock 4.0.4).
I have been looking at [Kernel][S4 ICS][10 DEC][SENSE] Beastmode BRICKED Ville [Linaro -O3][3.0.56].
I have a few questions about that kernel:
1) does it support init.d scripts?
2) does it improve multitasking in any way? Other kernels use zRam for this purpose, but I don't understand if this kernel does that too. Has "Google Snappy Compression" (mentioned in the features) something to do with this?
3) will I need to use a 3rd party app (like kerneltuner) in order to undervolt? And will the undervolt stick when shutting down the phone?
4) will I be able to go back to the stock kernel by restoring a backup with TWRP?
Those features are implemented in Fusion kernel, although it's no longer mantained...
Thank you in advance, it's my first time studying the kernel subject, sorry for bothering.

[Q] Stock Kernel - Add frequencies and/or governors

Hi community:
I wanted to know if there's some way to edit frequency values on the stock kernel and hopefully to add new governors. I tried some custom kernels but right now I want to stick to the stock kernel because I read that it has a proprietary driver that manages CPU (MPdecision I think it is).
I would be willing to compile, test and stuff on my device but if someone knows an easier trick (build prop or stuff) I'll gladly appreciate it.
Also if there's a stock-based customized kernel out there with such capabilities (I searched but all are AOSP based) I would try it.

i don't know if it works but try using engineering mode..
This app was mentioned on XDA news today - claims to let you tweak CPU: (no mention of it requiring a custom kernel)

Question - Wich LineageOS based ROM is Overclockable ?

Hi everybody.
I have testing some LineageOS based ROMs lately in my P5110 and P3110 and found no overclock option so far ?
Considering the low hardware profile in our tabs and the actual real overlclock, better user experience and battery tunning / real gain we get with some CyanogenMods 6.0.1, I see no point using, until now, the new LineageOS based ROMs!?
So I ask: Is there any known LineageOS ROM or compatible kernel with overclock potential that allows to improve the user experience as the "old" CM 6.0.1 does ?
Thanks

No luck here as well mate, I've been forced to stick with CM13 since OC and themes are a must for me
Best user experience, for me, is with CM 6.0.1 from "[ROM][P31xx][P51xx][MM][6.0.1][Linaro][SaberMod] CyanogenMod 13" (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2686613) and "[ KERNEL - AOSP] Dhollmen Espresso" from (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2176563&page=138).
Can run everything I need with good speed and make tweaks to allow battery savings even possible!
Hello everybody.
I have read previous answers, thanks.
Considering the time since the original question, I would ask again:
1- if there is no option so far to add an overclocked kernel to our tabs ?
2- I am not a developer, but maybe I could get the info needed to build my own overclocked kernel and share it with the forum, where to start from ? I think these would really be faster for those already with the proper skills to do it! I mean: do you developers really use your tabs without overclock nowadays ?
Thanks again.

1-There is still no overclock available.
2-I am not a developer (yet) but I think the tab is fast enough as it is (running Slim7 if you want to know) and I don't think overclock is necessary. The place to start for building a kernel is google. I think I saw a guide in the past.
Also, keep in mind that devs make things because they want to and get no reward for that. So don't ask or press them to make anything. If you create your own kernel it will be greatly appreciated, but I think you wouldn't like people constantly asking you for something (and yes, overclock has been asked for a lot of times in the past).

[Question] Custom kernel for CM13 with OC ability??

Is there any custom kernel for CM13 on the Tab2 10.1?
I really would like to OC my Tab2, but seriously, there seems to be not a single kernel that works with CM13...
There is one out there, but its for CM11 if I remember right. The Dhollmen-P51xx-Kernel_20131026 - but it doesn't work for me.
All I get is a pretty scary colourd and blurred display output on boot.
So, does anyone know a kernel for CM13 with OC feature? Or can anyone explain me, how to make my own OC-enabled kernel?
Like editing some files in the stock CM13 kernel or something like that? Is it that easy or not?
Thanks for reading
Problem solved!
Problem solved, Dhollmen's latest Kernel DOES work for CM13.
It got OC ability and its max. freq is at 1520Mhz, meaning its like you got "a third core" :good: :highfive:
Found this link on his second post:
https:// www .androidfilehost. com/?w=files&flid=26201
The kernel runs really good with CM13, I'll check LAOS14.1 soon.
