Story how i got that idea
(Skip this if u dont give a single **** about other people)
Can anyone please help me
I have a Galaxy S3 with a half-way-broken Screen. The reason why i say half-way is because the display actually works butt has very very low brightness so i am not able to see anything on my screen when i go outside or go into a room that is bright. Before i got this S3 i had many other phones like Omnia 2,Galaxy s2,Galaxy Note, and so on and i remembered a feature from siyah kernel on my Galaxy S2 wich allowed u the set a GAMMA SHIFT up to 50+. It was goddamn bright and i also knew that the siyah kernel is also awiable for the S3. After flashing it i was very dissapointed because exactly this feature was not there anymore. I flashed al the older versions of siyah kernel i found but non of them had gamma shift. Then i searched for another Kernel that could have this feature but i was not lucky at all. I quit messing around with my phone and used it as it is even it was a real pain in the ass. Some days later one of my friends who is also a person that has very good knowledge about android, ROMs, Kernels,.... He told me about that he has succesfully flashed a Galaxy Note 2 ROM to an Galaxy Note by only changing the files in the meta-inf folder from GT-N7100 to GT-N7000. When i heard about this i have tried to do the same with the siyah kernel from s2 to convert into a s3 kernel with the features from the s2 kernel that was missing. So long i had no luck by converting it. i have also looked up to threads in there people show how to convert ROMs from phones to ROMs for another phones.
THE REAL QUESTION!!!!
Is it possible to convert a phones kernel to another phone?
If yes, how do i do it?
Which programms do i need?
Can anyone please help me with that?
Hi there
You can learn more about kernel development here: [GUIDE] Build Your Own Android Kernel{Easiest and Fastest Way] [Using The NDK]

Hello there I'm a total noob on this forum and ive been searching for quite awhile for a rom for my samsung galaxy s fascinate on telus (as you can probably gather from the title of the thread), and I have had absolutely no luck does anyone know of any roms that could work for me?
Thanks in advance
Do none of these work ?
Im not sure ive been looking but I need to find a rom specific to telus for my fascinate as I dont want to brick my phone. Im sorry for my huge noobishness Im more familiar with iphones and such in the hacking department these androids are alot trickier
The telus fascinate has gotten no love from developers but there is a work around possible.
ROMS:
Some i9000 roms will work with the fascinate, same goes for a few tmobile vibrant roms. Its mainly luck which ones do and do not work but ones such as Darky's rom will work fine since they're actually designed for all SGS variants.
IMPORTANT:
Do not load any roms that include a bootloader in the update package; this WILL brick your phone. Also when flashing any roms be sure that lagfix is disabled for first boot again this WILL brick your phone otherwise.
KERNEL:
As for your kernel there is 1 custom voodoo injected one based on the stock telus kernel available specifically for the fascinate but you lose out on any overclocking/BLN/etc features. You are able to use the kernels available for the i9000 such as the speedmod kernel but you will lose your home button functionality.
This loss of home button functionality can also be fixed by remapping your buttons using a hex editor.
RADIO:
For the most part all radios will work but I found using the stock telus radio to be the best in terms of battery life/signal strength.
I have bought a galaxy ace and unfortunately it is gt-s5830i which hasn't got any custom roms till now as far as I know isn't there anything that be done to overclock this phone over 832mhz. ickyyy wrote that we can use the roms of galaxy y but it would have some bugs such as camera would not work. ickyyy if you are reading then please help me I can bare some bugs but I am mainly excited to overclock my phone. In one of your posts I found the clockmodrecovery and have backed up my phone please can you suggest me that whether should I use a ROM of galaxy y and if the bugs are too much for me can I restore my phone (as it is my first Android and I have bought it 3 Weeks before and haven't used Odin etc).
Also it would be a great help if you tell me or just give a link to the full and the easiest easiest way of flashing.
My advice is don't risk to flash ROM's for galaxy Y.It has the same hardware,however it's not 100% sure that it won't kill your phone.The display resolution is different.It may be posible that you would be able to flash and run it but it has no point.For overclocking you need a custom kernel which.Flashing a kernel for a different device may be very dangerous as it can kill your phone with no chance of reviving it.Just wait some time and there will be custom roms,kernel and everything for s5830i and you'll be able to overclock it.Many people are currently trying to port some ROMs and developing kernels but there are no good developers for this phone yet so it's very hard and slow...don't rush it!Use the stock rom.Samsung must release a new update to optimize applications and the videocore IV so it should give better FPS on games and etc...
hi ickyyy .
where are DEVs . why they dont work on s5830i ?
there are a lot of people waiting for a custom rom for 5830i !!!!
sorry for my english .

I have a rooted samsung s2 mobile which I have flashe dthe ICS 4.0.4 I am interested in learning more about Kernels, which ones can I use, how do I know which each one does and how do I understand the language of the Kernel. If anyone can help / advise dummies guide required......
thanks in advance

You should be able to find several kernels suitable for your SGS2 right here (XDA). Search for 'kernel collection sgs2' on google. The 3rd link from the top should be useful and have current ICS kernels (which are compatible with your device).
To name just a few:
N.e.a.k.
Siyah
CF-Root
Phenomenal
Make sure that, whatever kernel you decide to try, it's compatible with your ROM (in your case ICS 4.0.4).
best kernel for galaxy s3

Thx

hi i would like to know if we can use ANY kernel for our galaxy sl phones for example using a galaxy s1 or htc kernel for galaxy sl. is it possible?providing both phones are running either GB. ICS or JB roms
i have looked else where but cant find a related thread and i am not allowed to post in the development thread (maybe coz im new?)
Dont do it, if you dont want to brick your device. Each device have his own stuff and its very dangerous to play with this kind of things.
Hey guys, I have a couple questions regarding my Galaxy S3.
ATT Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-i747)
I'm currently running the latest snapshot version of CyanogenMod 11. I have Ktoonsez 747 Kernel. Now on his kernel, it changes my splash screen from the Galaxy SIII Cyanogenmod screen to a not so good looking picture displaying his Kernel Domination thingy, which I have downloaded a zip to change from that one to the orginal SIII splash screen, but, I would love to change it to the CyanogenMod 11 SIII splash screen. Is there any .zip's out there that anyone knows of that could do this for me, or would anyone mind making one for me? Also, the maxium I am able to overclock to is 1809Mhz. If i set it up to 2.1Ghz itll reboot, and i know this is common but I was wondering if anyone knew of a way i could get my phone stable at either 1.9 or 2.1 as id like to get this old phone as maxed out as I can. Ive looked for other Kernels but im quite new to this and Ktoonsez is the only ive managed to find and try out and im quite fond of KTweeker. One more thing, i just updated to the latest CM 11 but on my last version i would randomly lose all my contacts.... does anyone know anything about this? Thanks for all your help ^^
