Hi...I have just bought my new Huawei U8800 and I am a complete noob in the android world. So, I want to to put my CPU at 1,2 Ghz with setCPU and I have read that I need to put a custom ROM and change the kernel and I just don't know wich of both I should use or even how to install them..... I have read that Franco's kernel is pretty good, but again, I'm a noob....
Thanks for the answers in antecipation...
1. You need root: ROOT
2. You need clockwork recovery: RECOVERY
3. Then you can upgrade to custom ROM : VOID or OXYGEN or MIUI Void is probably the most stable, but Oxygen and MIUI is Android 2.3. There are a few more ROM's, but this is the best @ XDA.
4. You can now download SetCPU, buy from market or download here: SetCPU
5. If you want you can install franciscofranco's kernel for you ROM: FRANCO.KERNEL I use it for my Oxygen ROM.
You need to read a little bit to understand what to do, but in the end it's all worth it

Thanks for your answer, I just don´t understand what you mean when you say tha OXYGEN and MIUI are android 2.3????
That is the version; Froyo is "Android 2.2.x" and Gingerbread is "Android 2.3.x". So Void is Android 2.2.2 Froyo, Oxygen and MIUI are Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread. Gingerbread is newer than Froyo, and better
so, if i install OXYGEN or MIUI, i get android gingerbread in my phone, right???
Yes, but MIUI looks not like stock 2.3 Gingerbread, while Oxygen does. Watch som videos on YouTube. I personally like MIUI and will use it as my default ROM when it becomes stable/bugfree, but now it isn't and Oxygen has a little fewer bugs. But, You must choose what you like and want
If you install the latest version of OXygen, you don't need SetCPU anymore. It has all it's functions embedded in the Oxygen Settings.

Did you managed to install a custom ROM? There is a new version of MIUI with almost no bugs which I'm pretty happy with
I didn't do it yet, I had connection problems in my computer, but I just want to ask another two thigs:if I root my phone will I have the same language in the system, and if I put a custom ROM??? And if I have any problems with the phone, can a flash the original ROM because of the warranty???How????
Rooting the phone does not change the language selection. Not all custom ROMs necessarely support all languages though, just try it out.
If you want to revert your phone to stock settings just download the firmware directly from huawei (there is a install-guide provided i think).
Real quick issue: I have an ATT Atrix 4G rooted and unlocked, want to flash custom kernel, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1156040 However, I'm on gingerbread with a different kernel to the one that the forum thinks gingerbread should have. Is it safe to flash this different version kernel onto an older version (stock version)
Thanks
I just wanted to say that updating the kernel did not break it or anything, in case anyone else wondered....
Hi friends, I searched some foruns with information: How Can I do Root + CWM Recovery on GT-I9000B, but I found only old methods.
Can anyone help me by sending a complete "step-by-step" on how to do this?
After that, someone recommends a specific rom that is stable?
Thanks
Sorry for bad english!
Nobody help me?
Im in the same problem.
It depends on which version of android you are using. I'm using Gingerbread, so the option I use is Mafalda 0.9.4 kernel. It WAS a great Kernel,. but I think it's a bit old since there are several new versions of android since the kernel was made (It's based on Android GB 2.3.3... now we are on 2.3.6)
Another option is talon kernel but it's even older...
For ICS you can use official version from google (the one that uses the ICSSGS 4.2 mod) or the much better Semaphore kernel ported by f4k for our Galaxy S I9000B.
Anyway, I'm at GB 2.3.6, so if you know about any UPDATED KERNEL please notify me.
Good luck!
I'm running the official aokp 4.2.1 rom on my nexus 10. I was wondering if I were to flash say the paranoid android 3.15 rom which is aosp, would I need to do something special when going from aokp to aosp rom's? Also, was wondering how to update TWRP 2.4.4.0 from an older version of TWRP? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Even though you could have put a little effort into searching for the answer but since you didn't, I'm here.

I don't want to sound like a jackass but Searching for your problem before making a thread would be great
:angel:
I know how to flash lol. I just didn't know whether there were different steps that I have to follow for flashing AOKP roms and AOSP roms or whether i would have to flash differently when coming from/ going to one to the other lol. Hope I didn't come off as being an a-hole, just was wondering lol
Hello, I have been using Paranoid Android roms for a long time (Moto G).
I recently acquired a HTC ONE M7 and currently have Paranoid Android '4.5-BETA3' flashed. I want to flash a custom kernel but am unsure which are compatible with PA 4.4.4.
My device is UK 32GB Non-Gpe.
Thanks.

At first: i am new to custom Roms. Is it Necessary to Flash a custom Kernel?

you will need to find a kernel that is compatible with cm11/aosp. both cm11 and aospa are based on aosp and they use the same kernels.

no, since the rom comes pre-packaged with the default aosp kernel configuration for your device. you can flash a custom kernel for extra features and whatnot, however the kernel that comes in the rom will suffice.
