I've this section and there are so many ROMs to choose from along with kernels.
Any precautions I should take first before installing a recovery, custom ROM, kernel and root?
Any recommendations for a custom recovery and lollipop ROM please? Preferably with camera raw support?
Any kernels with overclocking?
Thanks
Try cataclysm last. You're unlikely to change again.

Back up your EFS. Put the backup someplace off the device.
Read all the stickies.
Flash away.
Thanks all

Awesome ROM, does faux kernel work well with it?

No idea but I don't see why not. Most people including myself use ElementalX. Not much wrong with stock, I just like to tinker.

As you all might know, the evo comes with a default htc kernel that doesn't let you go past 998MHZ. Im trying to overclock my evo. How do i do that? And what kernel should i use please?
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Most kernels other than stock will allow overclocking. Which ROM are you using? There are many kernels out there. One of the most popular is netarchy's.

Im using the default sense 2.2 rom. I tried all the roms i can get my hands on. Myn, cm6. 1.2, fresh, baked... didnt like them, so i was hoping i can change my kernel in sense 2.2 to netarchy or something... hopefully you can help.

Try any of netarchy's kernels. There is tons of information in his thread. Just put it in the root of your SD card and flash like you would any ROM. Wipe cache and dalvik cache before hand. For future reference you might get a faster response in the Q&A section. This section is more for developers and their creations.

Thanks ill look now and find the thread. Is it going to go to the correct directory if i just put it in the sd card, go in recovery mode and click on it? Thats what flashing is right? And sorry about that. Next time ill get it right. .

Yes, put it in /sdcard, boot into recovery, wipe cache and Dalvik cache, then install from sd card, browse to kernel zip file and flash.

Every phone seems to react differently, If I were you I would just read through netarchys thread ... the last 5 pages or so and get a feel of what they seem to like. It's easy to flash.. like the others said... do it just like a rom but ONLY wipe cache and dalvik cache.. DON'T factory reset or you'll have to start over flashing your rom.

I don't have a custom rom. Im using sense 2.2 will it work for sense 2.2?

read the thread that you download the kernel from first. some will say for aosp roms only. also make sure to do a nandroid backup before you flash anything. cant tell you how many times mine phone has rebooted into the boot loop after flashing something. good luck

Are you rooted? If you're rooted then any rom is a "custom rom". A sense 2.2 rooted rom is still technically custom, but, it can just be a pretty much stock rooted rom. So yea, you can try custom kernels.

is this a good kernel for sense 2.2?

No, that's for AOSP only
I was under the impression that newer hardware and hboot versions couldn't use custom kernels so if that's your case I would be careful.

Wrong section I believe. This should be Q&A.
I'm using netarchy's kernel with stock hatch rom right now. More-havs smartass etc. Allows overclocking and great battery life.

which current roms are ok to use with the new 4g phone? i think it would be nice to know. also is there a stock rooted 2.3.4 i can use when i get my phone this week? i see there is already a kernel we can use which is awesome.

I may be wrong but I don't believe any ROMs work with our phone yet. What I did in the mean time was just root using the fastboot method and flash CWM. Works like a champ
that's funny because netarch said last week they would work.
2.3.4 stock rom please devs!
The kernel works (I have it on my phone) as netarch stated, but rom's I *BELIEVE* are not compatible

I said the kernels should work fine, and roms possibly.
On closer inspection of a system dump from an ns4g there are some differences that will prevent current custom roms from working properly.
I'd need a guinea pig with an ns4g to assist me in testing to find out the exact changes necessary to make them compatible.
Atm there are at least 2 files I've found that would need to change.
You can go ahead and flash Net's kernel and start overclocking though!
I ended up getting so used to stock 2.3.4 rom that I am still on it!

Thats what I used. The rom is ready, but you will have to still flash superuser in recovery. I dont think the script is right. Im not really a dev after all Just wanted this, so I made it happen...

Did you have any trouble deodexing any of the apks? Mine keeps failing on NetworkLocation.odex. I just pulled the apk and odex files out of the origi_app folder to get around it.
Ok, so this is a stock deodexed ROM for the NS 4G. I am not a dev, you flash this at your own risk. With that being said, Im running it and I havent found anything wrong...yet. It does have netarchy's bfs kernel, you will need setcpu to oc, it is good up to 1.4. Your phone may not be. Do not check set on boot in setcpu until you know your phone is stable. You WILL have to flash superuser in recovery, you can flash it right after you flash the ROM, no need to reboot. So, here it is...
O yea, I added spare parts, CM file manager, and CM mms.apk so it doesnt have to be white...
>>>>>>I recommend wiping data before flashing<<<<<<
ROM:

i had no problem deodexing using the htc/sgs kitchen. just and fyi. it did everything with no errors.
Ok here is the thing i have few questions about rooting my device and flashing custom kernel.
1) I want to root my nexus 5 and yes i saw the tutorials its not my first time to root a device but its first time on n5 so if i root it and install custom recovery and keep stock rom and kernel will i be able to recive ota updates without any problems? Or if i just root it and keep the stock recovery will i be able to update?
2) And my second question will franco kernel work fine on stock rom? Because if my first question is not possible then i would flash franco kernel on my device too and later when an update for stock rom comes i would flas it manually of course if that is possible too?
Thanks for help.

No because you're rooted it won't accept the ota update due to modified software.

Just flash back the stock kernel and the stock recovery(if using it) and roll back any system changes u made.
hi i just a simple question, if i flash a custom kernel such as the franco one, and then i would return to the stock kernel
i just need to flash the cm 11s for example the 38R and nothing more right?
thank you for replies!

Yeah just dirty flash the your ROM and you'll be back on stock kernel. You could always try to find the stock kernel somewhere and flash that.
Also, simple questions like this could be asked on the main Questions thread on this forum. Just keep that in mind next time

Hi, I have Android stock. Should I flash another ROM or not? I need ti change Kernel?
Ask yourself
For example, on S3 was required to replace the TouchWiz. If the Nexus performs is better with another ROM l flash another ROM now.
Yes, flash cataclysm and code blue kernel

But is a beta version! :crying: I want it to go better with stock Android.
If you need extra features then do so. If not, I do not see the point of it. Anyhow, I suggest you use multirom so you can easily try all those roms out there.
No, I do not think I serve other customizations .
Then this thread is pointless. Close please
This means that the stock is fine, ok thanks.
Personal preference. If your not happy with stock then get a root. I suggest rooting the stock rom first before you try roms tho. You have alot more options for customization to the stock if you do that.
OK thanks I understand, if I want another options I root my device or I flash another ROM. A Stable ROM!
