Exciting news. Thanks for the link.

Yea, woke up today to find mt4g on clockwork recovery and kmobs twitter pic of a booted, yet very broken cm6. Thus begins the flashwars! All during the black ops release lol.

I'm so ready for this.
I'm permrooted, have custom recovery installed, made a nandroid backup, now all I need is this.
Waiting patiently.......

Amazing news, hopefully they remap the Genius button to Search in that rom.

This right here is one of the reasons im getting rid of my vibrant.

Anyone else notice that its using the stock kernel?

I don't think that kernel source is available yet for the MT4G.

Would the kernel source for the mt4g be required to get C6 running? Or, would it be required in order to run C6 optimally?

You use kernel source in order to compile a new kernel, although you can still create modded ROMS that use the stock kernel, and you can also create kernel modules to add functionality, until you have access to kernel source.

just when I thought this phone didn't need root. CM pops up his head.. damn it here we go again... Flash flash flash

Is that why we don't have overclock ability yet. The G2 processor is kicking our buts. (Keeping it P.G.)

Definitely excited for this! I'm no sense hater but it is no CM for sure.

I would love to see some customized build for this thing that would keep some of the Espresso things or, better yet, keep HTC framework optimized with CM goodies. This way we can just push things we like to it.

2.6.32 desire kernal

I was wondering when the 2.6.32 desire kernal will be in any ROM's? I'm trying to work on it now but having trouble in Ubuntu. Anyone got any ideas?

Direct from HTC, http://developer.htc.com/ ? Problem is, the real "Desire" isn't very similar to the Eris other than the old codename that HTC gave the Eris model, "Desirec".
More from Google, including a lot here at XDA.

Excuse my ignorance, but what is the advantage of this newer kernel? Do we even need it now that we have everything on our devices working on the .29 kernel?
Some think it's best (or reqd) to have the latest.

We don't "need" it but it will be more streamlined to work with froyo. Instead of having a million work arounds to get something like facebook syncing to work things will work by default. I've said it forever, the biggest thing for our phones is updating kernels.

[ROM][SenseUI] Rooted Android 1.5 v1 11/08/10

Well for those of you who want it, here is stock 1.5 from the MR2 with the following changes:
Superuser
Bash/Nano
BusyBox
Deodexed
Zipaligned
Rooted Android 1.5 v1
http://www.multiupload.com/2MX3IUX3G4
Now does anyone know how to OC 1.5? Every kernel I tried kills the touchscreen and everything else.
Change Log:
v1:
Initial Release
Not working:
Overclock (hopefully this is possible)
s10onn2o is looking into it for me, and I'm trying some things myself.
Well, 1.5 used a 2.6.27 kernel. I don't believe anyone ever made an OC version of .27. If you've tried OC'd .29 kernels and they didn't work... I would think that the only option is to either just not have an OC kernel or make a .27 one. Here's one of the best posts I've ever read on just about anything. Read that. Read it again. I've read it at least 3 times, and I feel the need to read it again. Heck, I don't know. The patches might even work on the old kernel source. Someone with more knowledge than me might know. Or you could just try it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=679102
I'd love for someone to take the time to OC the .27 kernel, and I'd use it in Retro1.

It's very technical for sure. If the thread dies, it can sit beside Retro1! Thanks for the work on this. Just keep on having fun and learning new stuff and passing it on. No biggie. I still go back to Retro1 every so often. Stock 1.5 is actually nice and stable and responsive. It just works. No bells and whistles, for sure. But it works and works well.

Okay so i think i might be able to patch the .27 kernel to OC, but it needs a desirec_defconfig file. I have one from the .29 source code, but would I even be to port it over to the .27? Or should I not even try?

Android Builder has a .config that I pulled from the .27 stock kernel. Just look in there. Or install 1.5 stock and pull the .config.

There's a file under the AB folder called 'config-eris.2.6.27'. That's a .config file from a .27 Eris kernel. You can just grab that file without actually running Android Builder if you just want the .config.

[Q] How to revert from ROManager 3.0.0 to 2.x

I used a method that someone posted here to get ROMANAGER 3.0.0.
Now it can't flash anything.
How do I revert it back?
It's called working on CM7...
I'd head desk, but i'd only be feeding the trolls.
But how come villain is beating him to the punch?
gingervillain is based off builds of cm7 so.... yeah.
So from what I understand, cyanogen is hard at work, building a masterpiece, while Villain is taking the intermediate "prototypes" and releasing it, with a few minor tweaks of his own?
Have you flashed some of the unofficial cm7 builds?

You got ClockworkMod 3.0. To flash to 2.x just use ROM Manager to flash the recovery.

"cwm 2.5.x all" is only recovery that backs up stock rom to my knowledge. You will need to flash it to make your backup then flash "cwm fixed for cm7" to proceed with cyanogenmod.

Recommend a kernel and why

Hey
Ive never switched kernels before and Im in the mood to try some out Which do you recommend? I like battery life but I also like decent performance obviously
Which are your recommended? (Only universal compatible ones eg. they work with all (or 99%) of ROMS)
GB/ICS? AOSP or sense?

I ment by universal just that: they work on both AOSP AND Sense.
And I apoligize for not mentioning what version: Gingerbread
The reason he's asking is because there is obviously no universal kernel that'd work for both AOSP and Sense.

Well, I suppose that you can try the Tiamat kernel. Credits go to canyiarb.
You can also try the ILWT kernel. This is what I'm using right now, I've had zero issues with it and it's blazing fast. Credits go to Tsubus.
Alternatively, there's also EliteKernel. It includes custom governors, something ILWT doesn't have. Also a great choice.) Credits go to Nik3r.
All three of the above are excellent kernels (in my opinion). You shouldn't see much of a difference between the three.

How can I backup my current kernel if I want to switch back?
Not sure, I suppose you could make a backup of your /boot partition (if you're using 4EXT Touch there's an option for this in Advanced Backup I think).
The best thing to do would be to make a nandroid of your existing installation in entirety.

Cyanogen roms have there own kernel, check in settings/about phone/ and look under 'kernel version' you'll see the name there.
If it's stock, yes it is using it's own kernel.
