I'm looking for a stock cos12.1 rom with CAF kernel. I like the roms with CAF kernel but I don't want to loose the cos12.1 stock apps like boxer (with exchange support) and other apps. Is there a rom like this?

I'm pretty sure there isn't such a ROM, but check my index thread in the general section, I could be wrong.

There is currently no COS ROM that uses Sultanxda's CAF trees. The closest thing to that would be downloading one of Sultan's latest CM12.1 nightlies and adding ported apps and zips yourself. (there are quite a few around xda and google).

Hi guys
I am a new user for Nexus 5 which is also my first Android device.
Can anyone tell me what is the source of Mahdi-Rom?
Can I flash Franco kernel for this ROM? I noticed the the Franco kernel is not compatible with CM sources. So I want to confirm the source of Mahdi-Rom in case it is from CM source.
Pls help :banghead:

I believe it's ASOP base but has some CM aspects.
Either way if you check the 5th post of the Franco kernel FAQ thread it lists Mahdi-rom as supported

Hi everyone,
I know this is probably a really nooby question, but im running the most recent nightly of cyanogenmod and i noticed it has its own kernel under About Phone. I would like to use faux kernel instead. Is it safe to flash faux kernel over the top of it or will it mess things up? Thanks guys!
All ROMs have kernels. They can't work without one so this makes the rules of changing kernels with cm no different from any other Rom.
You're right though, it's a really nooby question. I'm not trying to offend but not knowing this means you're not ready for flashing kernels. Please read the sticky threads in Q&A and general to bump your knowledge up to the next level first
Fyi, cm use CAF kernels only so you can only Flash CAF kernels.

you can flash any kernel you want.. but it doesnt mean that itll run. cyanogenmod uses caf for source, the moved away from aosp. so you can flash and run kernels based in caf, not aosp. faux kernel is an aosp kernel, so if you flash it you wont boot up.
Yeah, but only flash kernels for the n5. Flashing something else can brick it. If it's a caf based rom flash a caf kernel.

Ive read the stickies. I wanted to be cautious because im new to cyanogen and i didnt wanna mess anything up. I was using Cataclysm with Faux so I didnt need to know about CAF kernels back then. Thanks for your help anyway

So, do you need a specific ROM for specific kernels? Or can you download kernels without a ROM?

If possible to download kernels, can someone link me to a list of them if that's how it works.

I know I am sounding like a total noob right now, I've flashed ROMs many times but don't know much about kernels
@jongonzalez716705
Of course you can flash a kernel without a rom.
Make sure that the kernel is compatible with your current rom.
Profits about a kernel;
+ Some kernels let your overlock your processors
+ faster boot time
+ some kernels have some other advantages.
Which phone do you have?
Hit the thanks button if you think this post is usefull .

I currently have a Samsung Galaxy S 5 SM-G900T. I'm currently running XtreStolite ROM but currently running through some issues like wallpaper picker keeps force closing when I choose one, Setup for Fingerprint says to restart, I do, and still nothing, and tried downloading MyFiles but when ever I do an action, it force closes.

I know but I've downloaded a ROM before that had its own custom kernel. Had fun overclocking but spent more time underclocking. Is there somewhere where I can download certain kernels?
Yes,you can flash Kernels.
Why are custom kernels android useful?
Ans:Kernels are the brain of your Android device and communicate between software and hardware. Therefore, they are responsible for managing things like CPU / GPU clocking speed, screen sensitivity / colors or voltage. By using a custom kernel you can not only improve battery life, but also increase system performance.
Many custom ROMs already come with their own kernels. This is done to implement software communication of the custom ROM with the hardware of the device and also to ensure a better performance. Nevertheless, you are often also able to flash custom kernels to custom ROMs. If you decided to stick to a rooted version of stock Android, flashing a new kernel can offer you additional performance with the convenience of a stock OS.
Always make sure to check compatibility of the kernel with your ROM and device, because flashing a wrong kernel can brick your phone!
You can use this apk called as Franco.kernel. The app is available in playstore.
Yeah I was wondering this too....
Is it possible to take my original rom kernel (built for mediatek 6582) and use it on say cyanogen ?

Atm i have elementalx kernel installed and thinking about switching to franco when i install a new rom. I am on stock rom and will probably flash to Slimkat, will i just have to flash Rom + google apps and then elementalx/franco?
Read the op for slim. If it says to flash gapps then you'll need to do that. Then flash the kernel

......I wouldnt ask if I wanted stock. Phone gets too hot with normal use and there isn't many tweaks I can make to make it cooler.
The kernel is cm based.
Btw. there is no aosp kernel for the oneplus one. We have 4 different types. Based on CM; based on Sultans CAF kernel; based on omnirom; based on Color OS.

Lightning Kernel v22 (updated to 23 now) and Lightning kernel based on Linux kernel v3 works for me with exodus. Personally prefer the latter. Boeffla didnt boot for me with exodus and i didnt try any caf kernels.
If you have heating issues you may want to try the 6th June build if you arent using it already
Heat issue does exist in build may 23 - june 1.. Even if you change the kernel.
Check your current build.. Update to the latest one
