[Q] about kernel under phone info.. - Epic 4G General

i looked a little hope this hasnt been brought up...i am just curious about if a rom comes with a kernel (if that even is the case) no matter what ROM i flash my phone still says Kernel: 2.6.32.9 isnt that supposed to change and is that stock?
im running dk28 Bonsai 2.0 ext 4 with gingerbread 1.8.5 runs great just curious though..

that's the kernel version your reading and we don't have to source code yet so no custom kernals.

Is there a link for the official 2.6.32.27 kernal?

First off I have had nothing but problems running user made/altered kernals, they always hang my cpu at 100% after the phone had been running for 40+ hours.
Anyway I am currently on the (official) fast charging 2.6.32.17 kernal. But is there anyway I can get the newer version? The .27 one?
I'ma let you finish, but...
kernel*
Sorry bro.
Not sure there is a .27 kernel for the Incredible yet, but if there is it would probably be linked from the "HTC Droid Incredible - Official Kernel Thread," located at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=866736

[Kernel] Clemsyn's Kernel for 1.2 bootloader only Froyo/Ginger/Honeycomb Version

This is my version 11 kernel specifically build only for Bootloader 1.2. Just for you information. Bootloader 1.2 allows us to flash adam ROMS etc...This should also work for zpad. So if you updated to 1.2 bootloader and would want to go back to your old rom (Vegan, TNT, Clemsyn+Caulkin combo) all you have to do is flash the ROM and then flash the kernel and you should be good to go. Here is the link.

Clemsyn,
I appreciate all you and Roebeet's work on bringing HC to the gTab. I installed BOS a2.3 Saturday and your version 11 kernel Sunday. This morning I install BOS a2.4 and reinstalled your version 11 kernel. Each time I look at the Kernel Version it says 2.6.32.9-clemsyn-g568f750-dirty. Am I doing something wrong or have you been too busy to update the version number?
Regards,
Daris

That is right, but if you use BOS a2.4, there is no need to flash my kernel since it is already in the ROM
Good to know. Thanks! I am looking foward to future updates.
overclocking
can the hc kernel be overclocked and if so how? set CPU will only clock to 1000.

Using bottleofsmoke with your kernel now, great job.
forum search is down.
May I know where to get rndis_host modules for the kernel, want to use usb tethering.
I'm wondering what for this 1.2 Ginger kernel for since I cannot find any Ginger ROM using 1.2 boot loader. Anybody can make use of this clemsyn kernel for Ginger?

its postulated that you can restore a backup of a 1.1 ROM while using the 1.2 BL and then flash the 1.2 kernel in order to get the ROM working. This needs to be tested.
I got stuck myself running the CM7 2.3.4 nightlies.

That is the right process in which you can restore run 1.1 ROM, and then flash it with Clemsyn's or Pershoot's NEWBL kernel.

No go for me
I have BL 1.2 which I got earlier by flashing stock 4349 and update to HC BoS
HC BoS has already CWM 3.028
I cannot update any 1.1 Ginger ROM (Tried Vegan, Vanilla, Harmony) using CWM 3.028
The error message :
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "harmony" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "harmony" ||
getprop("ro.build.product") == "harmony"

i just turned on my new g-tabler for the first time. it wants to update from 3551 to 3991, would that put me on 1.2 ? or doeso only the 4xxx update move to 1.2?
Also, i read 1.2 is locked and does not allow custom kernels, this seems to be a custom kernel for 1.2, so was that info proven wrong? the thread is locked so i cant ask there
i am looking for stability and full hw accel (and something actively developed) can someone suggest a rom?
I do part-time android developer, you can see my apps/projects in my sig, I may see how I can contribute to the g-tablet now that I have one
thanks!

I think 3991 using 1.2 boot loader
To make easier update, see roebet honeycomb thread
You will find everything there for upgrading to 1.2 BL
I suggest to use 1.2 based ROM since more upcoming ROM such as honeycomb will use 1.2 BL
Lot of people say calkulin+clemsyn combo 6 is fast stable ROM
Btw, if you know some android! programming, maybe you can
work on Bluetooth DUN dial up client application.
Gtab only has wifi, meaning when travelling and can't get wifi, it's cripple
There is solution already with android phone to have wifi tethering.
But for people don't have android phone, Bluetooth dun tethering will be better
choice since most of smartphone have Bluetooth DUN capability.
I think this what lot of people missing now in gtab.
I have study a bit and find out in fact android git already implement Bluetooth dun
functionality. However missing DUN dialer application.
Only Archos makes their own DUN shipped with Archos 70 series
Clem is it possible to get a 1.6 oc version of this for 1.2 honeycomb? I had my tab up to 1.6 on 3.1.4 enhancement and was stable and flying. Like to push it as far as I can.
The link to the rapidshare download for Gingerbread doesn't seem to be working. Is there an alternative place to pick it up?

I am also having issue dloading keeps dloading a html file both from here and SlateDroid. Tried skyfire as well, no good. Would really like to see a 1.6 one.
Hey Clemsyn,
Now that rayman has a mostly working 2.6.36 kernel for Adam and they are close to having useful honeycomb roms that run on it, including full hardware acceleration, is there any hope that you'll get in to his git and make a gtab kernel out of it?
I did try booting a boot.img that rayman gave me, and then also the ic1.zip which is a full test rom, but nothing gets past the Viewsonic birds. He has some ideas, and knows changes need to be made for Gtab. It would be great if you could get involved.

Finding out what ROM was installed

Hey
I used to have a nice ROM installed with a kernel that allowed overclocking. I would run my shift at 1.5Ghz and was really happy. Then when Gingerbread was coming out, I decided to flash a Gingerbread ROM because I was just excited for 2.3
Now there were not kernels for Gingerbread ROMs at that time. So formatted/wiped everything from my device using Clockwork Recovery. Now here's where I have a few questions:
After I wiped the entire device, when my phone booted, it seemed to have 2.3 installed so I assumed that since there was an OTA update for Gingerbread, it must have gotten updated somehow. I want to find out whether I have a custom ROM with 2.3 installed or is it a regular Gingerbread stock ROM that's on my device?
I would like to find out what kind of ROM is installed on my device right now and do whatever it takes to be able to flash a kernel that allows overclocking, because going back to 800Mhz from 1500Mhz is just not doing it.
I would also really appreciate if someone gave me direct links to a custom ROM (since I understand at this time it is impossible to flash an overclocked kernel, since HTC has not released official Gingerbread source code yet) with a flashable kernel that's completely stable and allows overclocking to 1.5Ghz.
I really don't care about the whole Cynaogen Mod etc, because I use LauncherPro anyway and from what I understood when I was reading about Cyanogen Mod, it doesn't change THAT much other than adding a little bit more functionality and mainly focusing on changing the phone interface, which is completely irrelevant to me.
Thank you in advance.

If you just did a wipe and didn't flash anything, your still running the same ROM as you were before the wipe. If you go into setting > about phone > software information > more, this will tell you your current ROM (build version). If you would like to continue using Sense but want to overclock I would suggest MikShift 1.1, otherwise I would suggest the Shift Deck ROM. Both can be overclocked with several different kernels, just do a little reading through the dev section to see what best suites you.
Disregard, just typed what crump said but he beat me to it!

Issue changing kernels

So I have 2 iconias. One running stock + honeyvillian kernel, and one that I installed tabooney 3.2 with the 3.2 honeyvillian kernel. On the second, I decided that I didn't want to run 3.2 until the official came out for the a500 (not the 501)
So, I reinstalled stock 3.1 acer rom + stock kernel after doing full wipes. Ran the tab and decided to run the honeyvillian 3.1 kernel on top for OC in the system. I installed it and everything on my tab is backwards. I did a full wipe again, reinstalled the origanal kernel and worked fine. Reinstalled the oc kernel and then everything on the screen was fragged. Back to stock 3.1 kernel.
What gives and how can I fix this irritation? This is my wifes tab and she is not happy lol. Please exuse the noobness of this inquiry and all my spelling errors.
Thanks Guys
The problem lies within user not properly reading the info before proceeding... Considered yourself lucky that you didn't permanently damaged the device
here's the quote from RichardTrip Villain kernel thread:
"As of 3.0 this is only for Honeycomb 3.2"
If you're running HC 3.1 or 3.0.1 ... your kernel version have to be versions below 3.0 !
Yes, I understand that. I should clarify... using version 2.5 for HC 3.1. I looked well over the villian kernel which is why I am confused about my issues. I followed the procedure for the donwgrade on the rom and the kernel and am confused why I can't move to "v2.5" of the honeyvillian kernel without issues. Am I just trying the wrong kernel? I can use the wrong kernel all day and switch back to the stock kernel with no issue just cant move back to a 3.1 custom kernel without issue. I can run the 3.2 a501 rom + honey villian kernel with no issue and re downgrade to 3.1 w/stock kernel no issue but can't seem to get a 3.1 custom to work.
Moved to Q&A
aNY new help?

Amazing kernel with good battery drain

I am using Typhoon CM7 ROM, 3.7.6. The original kernel is Tytung14. It is good but not many options (like CPU governer) to play with. Later, I played with Dorimanx kernel for several versions. Version 3.3 is good. After that, 3.4 to 3.9 was unstable and not suitable for daily use. However, the 4.0 is good and fast again.
Recently, I noticed a kernel created by Seadersn. The version I found was seader_R9, which is the original kernel of Hyperdroid ROM AGAIN. The hyperdroid used another 2.6.35 line in the previous version but switched back to seader kernel in the latest ROM. I flashed the seadersn kernel to use with the Typhoon ROM. I must say it is really stable and battery saving. I know it is an old kernel but I like its efficiency and stability.
