I'm curious to know as I saw that Linux will soon have a 3.0 kernel from 2.6.39...
The Glitch V11 kernel for the Galaxy S series is running Kernel 2.6.35
Would we be seeing something from a newer Linux kernel on our phones?
Do our phones run a different version of the linux kernel? God I wish I knew what the clear difference was!!

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.

I know our device runs on kernel version 2.6.32. But what all improvements benefits would we get if we were able to get kernel 2.6.35 or 3.0 working on our device ?? also is getting 3.0 working on our device much more difficult than getting android 4.0.3 working ???

I think the new kernel brings bug-
fixes and security patches.Porting it should be much less difficult then porting Android 4.0.3 but you really need someone like mercellusbe with a fair bit of lnowledge in C
Hi all,
I'm testing the CM10.2 nighties on my Razr M from two weeks. Everything seems stable but I want to try it with the SmartassV2 governor that the CM kernel is missing. I started searching for alternative kernels (like Aaaagh's one) and I noticed that the actual CM10.2 kernel is v.3.0.96: wasn't Android 4.3 supposed to have the 3.4.62 version instead? If so, why Cyanogemod is stuck with th old 3.0.96 version? I've searched for answers but I've find none...
Is it possible that every CM10.2 build has the old kernel, or is this happening only with the Razr M build?
Maybe I'm just missing somenthing...

3.4 kernel for MSM8960 isn't quite available yet.
Hopefully Moto will update to 3.4 if we ever receive official 4.2 (or 4.3)

Ok, everything isclear now! Thanks for the quick response!
Basically we've two options:
1) use the 3.0 kernel with backported 3.4 funcions (the one integrated in the CM builds)
2) use a 3.4 kernel (like Aaaargh's or others) non totally adapted to our device
And all this because we're still stuck with Android 4.1.2 thanks to Motorola/Google/Verizon...
At this point, I think te safest thing is to keep using the 3.0 kernel... Apart for the new governors/schedulers, why soul I prefer a 3.4 kernel (maybe this is a silly question too...)? Are they usable/stable even if they're not exactly matching our device?
Hello to everybody. I need to do a 3.15 linux kernel or 3.2.0 for my grouper Nexus. I was sawing this https://github.com/cyanogenmod/android_kernel_asus_grouper but I dont have the more minimal idea how I have to compile it to do it. Can anybody help me? I dont know if it is possible do a 3.15 or 3.20 version, does it exist?
Unless you seriously know how to tinker with Android device kernels and you have some experience with the N7 2012, don't bother. It took upwards of a year for the 3.4 kernel to be ported and it's only recently become stable(ish)
why 3.15 kernel when we have 3.4 fully functional kernel?
Hello, which kernel do you recommend for Pixel Experience ROM official with overclocking CPU/GPU feature? I tried eXtreme kernel 12.1 but after that I was not able to connect my device to PC, it does not recognize device. Before I use eXtreme 12.0 kernel on unofficial Pixel Experience ROM and I did not have this problem so I do not know whether it is problem of kernel or not. Thank you for help.
Moun Kernel is the best I think. It is stable, have a bunch of cool features and also has OC to 2.2ghz. Definitely worth to try.
Try extreme kernel v13 beta (keep in mind that it'll only work with roms based on linux 4.9)
