Which kernel is better and why?
I google, but can`t found diference of this two.
Quarx for V20B/MMXTREM's for V20C
patry95juve is correctt .
MMXTREM 666 kernel actually works for many 2.1 versions if not all. Tested on v20e, 20b, 20d, 20c I haven't tested on v20a but should work. This kernel is the #1 right now

I read that it is #1, but can not found why.
bouth have iptables, suport ext3/4, swap, good overclocker...
I'm wondering about this as well, actually. My gf's phone has a rooted stock v20a (if i remember correctly), and Quarx's 0.3.1 kernel installed, but if mmxtrem's 666 would work and would be a better alternative.. why not? I'd test it myself, but with exams and everything, I'm not sure when i'll be able to.
EDIT/NOTE: They mention something about a battery boost of like 20% with mmxtrem's kern, that's why I'm considering it.
Battery should be better with the Infernal Kernel. Also it supports init.d scripting (don't think Quarx does). Oh & it was compiled using LG's latest source (v20c).

What about pcfighter kernel? How good is it?
Whats the latest state of affairs?
I'm asking because I'd like to flash best kernel to EleganceSwift 5.0 (Eclair).
Or is EleganceSwift 5.0 already using mmxtrem's boot 666?
How can I deteced that?

in the settings install the rom and under android version theres somewhere the kernel
Just that easy. Was confused about all the versions and where to look it up.
So when I'm using boot 666 (which should support swap) with EleganceSwift 5.0 I'm able to enable swappiness? If yes, how can I do this?
Yes... after flashing kernel download script from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19814203 and copy it to etc/init.d folder, set permision and reboot.

I flashed MMXTREM boot 666 with init.d support, created swap partition via cwm and moved the swapon file into right direction.
But after restart swap seems not not work (terminal shows 0). Where could be the problem?
Edit: With Swapper 2 swap works, so I think the Rom should support it. But why not nativly?

have you made a swapfile on your sd card or used the partition when doing it with swapper 2 ?

Swapper 2 creates a swap file by itself.
For nativ support by swapon script I created a partition.

Whos it does effect stock too, though it causes graphical glitches
Yeah I take back what I said it works on stock kernel, though I don't recommend it.
tried this on j's cm7 20b
achieved avg 82fps...
it makes a lot smoother but also makes lag...for me
ive attached a signed zip with modified init.local.rc
flash this with xrecovery
hope it works
Is there any potential danger doing this? I'd might try it on 2.2 for testing only :O

thank you utsubo.

will test once my battery has more juice.
Tried on 2.1 optimized. No improvement on benchmarks and screen jitters badly. Also saw 4% bat drain in 10 mins, but that could have been down to trying to multitask wiv mod applied (wifi,BT,sync). If I can provide any further useful info let me know. B-)

hey,guys, i need help...
it's ok with the tytung's Kernel, but the hwa rom is based on Dorimanx's Kernel,i just cant use any Dorimanx’ Kernel or any rom with this kernel, i really dont know why...
anyone know what is the problem?
and thank u so much
I there,
I have the same problem. I think it has something to do with the hwa driver...somehow some hd2 must have hardware diferences between them.
All the other ics roms withou hwa works grate. Hope someone help us
Sent from my Nexus One using xda premium
i hope it is not wrong with my hd2,but the kernel is..
What rom are you using? Do you have any bad blocks? Any version works before ? More details will help like what version of the kernel you are using did you place your from init
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA
all other roms work great. I used before the AOKP 34 and tytung 1.6 ics rom without problems. Since the release of ics with hwa i cant boot. I tryed cm9 and aokp and both cant boot.
Sent from my Nexus One using xda premium
I do have the same problems with kernels higher than 5.7 . I just tried flashing kernel 6.5D but I'm again stuck at GO GO GO...
I use Dorimanx 3.1.6.2, working well with 5.7.
Luke the newer kernel got hwa so the libs changed so you need to wait till tytung updates his tom as for aokp or miui au ics or cm9 you need to put the init.gz in the custom folder and update hope it works

no problem always here to help ( a click on the thanks button will be highly appreciated)
first get your rom extract it
go to the kernel folder and extract the init.rd
download the dorminax kernel also extract it ( PS it has to be higher than 6.6c)
you should see a folder called initrd-Custom and paste the init.rd there and zip all the files use a zip manager ( i use 7-zip)
place the file on sd card and install it through recovery like usual
enjoy it should work

Do you get a logcat? Have you tried having the initrd.gz a part of the kernel's zip? Or the kernel and the modules a part of the ROM (build a boot.img)?
The CM7 nightlies ate currently using rboot in magldr, which means no more zImage and initrd.gz, but a single boot.img... I had posted a long post in the ROM thread, check a few pages back...

Hi, I have been using a Quarx version of CM10 for a while. I'm having problems with the battery drain, so I want to downgrade to cm 7.2.
Now I'm a bit confusing about how I can do it safely. So I want to ask you! Thanks for your attention.
I'm using Kernel: [email protected]#1
CyanogenMod version: 10-20120924-NIGHTLY-mb525
I'm not sure If I must change the kernel because i'm using a gb kernel.
Thanks again!
just format as ext3 and flash as always..wipe dalvik/cache..

I can't find the option to change to EXT3 in Tools. Why arent it there?

as you all know i was working on a kernel with 400mg system partiton but i didnt had the enough experience in building kernels so i tried doing it a new way
as you know arc s has 400mg system partiton and i saw that we can flash arc s ftf on our play and it will work
ok heres what you have to do step by step
1-install flashtool and its drivers
2-download arc s ftf from here (thanks to @zohaib0001 for his link): http://d-h.st/cyw
3- now install this ftf on your play by doing these setting before flashing:
1-all wipes should be checked
2-only exclude base band
3- no final vertification should be check
4-now simply flash it on your play
5-after flashing install a kernel with unmodified partition on your play(even before booting or anything else)
6-now flash a rom on your play and enjoy 400mg system partiton
important: your kernel should have unmodified partition or you will lose 400mg system partition
red: this mod wont work on this kernel
green: this kernel will work(tested by myself)
blue: this kernel will work but not tested by anyone
purple: this kernel will work(tested by one of the users)

Great guide!
I've tested DoomLord's ICS v3 kernel and it worked
Size of partitions is:
System: 400MB
Data: 420MB
Cache: 100MB
Question: Is stock kernel from Play's firmware having partition layout? Can it be done on locked bootloader?
no it doesn't have have any modified partiton so you can even use this on stock-rom and kernel
but its not necessary because gb roms need less than 200mg system partiton but it will give them a little more data partition
i will add everything about partitions soon
edit: but you have to flash the kernel only not the whole ftf file as you will lose this mod by doing that
Unfortunately for cdma users this guide won't work for us as we can't flash other partitions to my knowledge
Sent from my R800x using xda app-developers app
give it a try(if you have arc s ftf)
it may work
i thought that it wont work on R800i too but it worked
update: added lupus ics beta
tested by myself and its working
this kernel and doomlord ics are best kernels for porting ics roms now
update: tested doom kernel gb too
its working
thread updated again
now most of the kernels are tested
but 2 things are still not tested
1-cdma support
2-lupus ics/gb with cm9 support(as this kernel is not updated to latest version and v6 has too many performance problem i dont recommend to use this kernel even if it works completely with this mod)
also the green color that i used for the tested kernel was unreadable so i changed it with a new color
maybe @Bakisha can do it on lupus v13 JB as he did it ICS..without any mod like that..seems to cause lost of signal and other minor bugs on play..
you wont get any problem because if you do it as i said your baseband will be the old one and the only changed thing will be system(that will be changed again) and partition layout
im running this mod from when i written it and i had no problem
severe boredom made my try this and guess what no go like I said for CDMA
