(Q) How to apply a new kernel on an old rom... - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Guys,
Due to the fact that I can't find the right way how to apply this I'm opening this thread. Personally I don't like to open threads but I think this could be usefull for other users.
So actually I'm facing the following problem.
I'm a big fan of this rom LeoRCMix S v.1.9
But there are still some things wich don't work properly like wifi/data switch and the glitches. A new kernel should fix this...
I don't know which kernel I will find out but.....
For example a kernel like this... TYTUNG_R14
I have to change the ... initrd.gz... how does this works and what are the actual steps to make? I flashed a lot of roms... but this is abracadabra for me
Is here someone who can help me out?
Thnx in advance grtz John

Yeah oke, that's not the point... flashing is daily bussines
But in the kernel threads they are warning that the initrd.gz.... is different and it wil not boot. So I have to change something with that initrd.gz...thing but I don't know what

Unzip the ROM you have then go to the boot folder. There will be a file called Initrd.gz. Copy it over and replace the initrd.gz of the Kernel you are trying to flash. By the way, I think that Tytung r14 is for CM7 and MIUI isn't it? Why not just use Marc1706's kernel for GB/Sense ROMs (stickied)?

Thans for your reply! This makes everything a more clear! I just suggested a kernel. Maybe the v6 kernel of sbryan could be a good one ;-)
I'll flash a few and test around.

[Q] Kernel question....

I do not have a PC Reader, so I can not install Kernal 8.5.1, is there build with at least 8.5 built into it? Every build I have tried so far, drains the battery really fast, even when I just text all day. I heard that the build's with sense drain the battery, but I can not find a Froyo build without Sense UI, can anyone help? I wish I could install this Kernel without having a PC Reader
use your usb cable
That is not very specific. I have Hastarin Kernel 8.5.1 on my Desktop right now, but how do I install that kernel onto my phone, also are there any builds with 8.5.1 already built in? Please give step by step instructions, I have my phone plugged in via usb, but I do not know how to go about installing the Kernel.....
Don't you think you should be asking this question in the thread were you got the kernel from? Instead if opening up a new one.

Give him a break, it's the Q&A section after all.
@TS: boot into WinMo, and just transfer the kernel files to your SD card with the usb cable. More info on which files should be moved where, check the first post of hastarin's thread.
Thank you Stephan. I found a Build desire HD2, by Cedesmith, it seems the build already has Kernel 8.5.1 built in it, I could be wrong, please verify that, because I would install that build and just be fine with it.

Just read whats in cedesmith's thread, I'm really not gonna check that for you. Most people here are glad to assist but you're gonna have to learn to figure some things out for yourself.

Does flashing a Custom Rom such as Energy, help runt the phone faster, and would it help the battery life while running Android?

[Q] Need help to port a Gingerbread (2.3.3) ROM to HD2

Hi. I am keen to learn how to port a Gingerbread ROM which I like to HD2 and would appreciate if someone could advice or recommend me the place to start. The closest I found was in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898215 but someone mentioned that it is already outdated as the advice would only work with older android version.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

I am not sure if this is call making an android Rom ... what I want to know is if I see a good gingerbread rom from the HTC desire for example, how can I "cook" it for hd2?
Yeah I think u mean making,cooking a rom for HD2,not flashing it to HD2 ,right?
I think u need to put alot of time to make a good stable rom.that's y I prefer to download one and just flash it and see how it runs

Yes. I am not referring to flashing it but cooking it for hd2. I have already tried a couple of the custom Gingerbread Rom for hd2 but am not entirely satisfied so I decide to cook one for myself based on the other HTC handsets.
Aha I see,I'm using BOYPPC-SHIFTPDA GINGER 2.3.3 RAM_V5 and so far it's great.
ppl also recommend this:
TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 RC2 v2.6.2 [2.3.3][A2SD][tytung r7]
but if u wanna make ur own rom ,if I'm not wrong u can find a Chief program easy to cook a rom for ur desires ,but I'm not 100 percent sure it's an entire rom or just the interface ,I never tried that, have a look at that.
Been using TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 rom on my device this rom updates very quickly

So in that case come back when you have flashed sense onit and tell me that it hasnt got glitches....

Is it okay to install a rom directly on the stock samsung firmware?

guys is it okay to install this rom directly from stock samsung android 2.1?
i haven't installed anything on my cell phone, its not rooted etc aswell. Just got it and wanna install kyrillos immidietely
should i just follow the guide given in kyrillos thread?
Also i've downloaded the OC version but i currently have no intention of actually overclocking. Can i use that rom and keep the stock CPU speed? cuz in the future i might OC

hi
1. read carefully on how to use Odin
2. it is always advisable to do a factory/Data wipe and wipe delvi cache and then flash the ROM via odin and if u want to go back to the stock rom dont worry just look in the rollup thread and u will see some links with stock rom with out boot loader for u to flash
good luck and be care full read carefully before attempting to flash
Like it has been said before, it´s ok.
Just remember to follow the guide and you´ll be just fine.
I recommend to flash the Kyrillos Rom 9.2 with G3Mod 2.2.2 noc oc.
Hit thanks if it helped you anyway.
Best of luck
Thanks alot harree.
Also what about the Overclock thingy? and one more question i read in one of the threads that a bettery stats wipe should be done after installing the rom. Well i searched around and i couldn't find a thread on how to do that. I would appreciate if someone can help with that.
@iam_dragonmaster, how can i install the g3mod 2.2.2 non oc (i figure this is a kernal? how can i install a kernal when installing the rom?) with kyrillos rom? besides i can only install kyrillos 9.0 i think then have to use the update.zip thingy to update.

Boot into recovery using the extended boot menu and apply the update for kyrillos 9.2 by selecting zip from SD card and of course you need to put the update in your SD card. You can download g3mod kernel and flash it via Odin one package and it does not wipe your data . Also you can download the battery calibration app from the market and install it and follow the instructions. For me i use Zeppelinroxs die hard battery calibrator script. Can be found with the beta/test releases of v6 supercharger.

Mdeejay Upgrade Kernel on SD - No flashing! CJust COPY/PASTE. - Help!

Hi guys,
How are ya? I hope all of you are in good spirit today! (and give me some advice )
I got HTC HD2 and I have Mdeejay eVo on my sd card and I launch Android from WM6.5, it's working flawlessly and I do not find JET any problem BUT from my research I understood if I update the kernel in my Android I will have more fixes and tweeks BUT I do not know where find the right kernel and how to install it.
I try for weeks and I don't know where I can find the kernel compatible for my android, currently my kernel in hastarin 7.7 and where I can find the update? I already contacted Hastarin but he is retired and can't help me much.
Also I do not have Android flashed on my ROM so I can't use CWM or similar, I can ONLY copy the new kernel into my sdcard, BUT I don't know if it is in the right way to update, or I missing something?
Someone can explain with basic words how to do that? Pleeasee.
Cheers in advance.
.....nobody know how update the kernel? Help.
You are stuck in old times mate. .. Get the native SD roms.. Try xylos Pacman rom on native sd.. From nand section
Hastarin kernels latest one support ics and jelly bean. ..
Secure crt is making great kernels now

my friend, you don't understand, I do not need upgrade, all working fine and I don't have big problems, I just need to undate the kernel. This is so complicated? You have time to do all this stuff again and going for new problems and serchings, I don't.
The only thing which I need is to update my kernel, like many pepole update they kernels I want it too but I am not expert in this section.
Someone know how? For old stuff shuld be easy.
Get an updated kernel zip, unzip it, find zImage file, copy it to SD/Android/, if there's /system folder in the zip, copy it to /Android/root, then hope it will work.
Also, backup everything first.

Oh,
of course I will backup all before but ok, wait, so I have to get ANY updated kernel for my phone (HTC HD2) and take zImage file ONLY and replace it with the old 1 which I have already?
am I right?
And put /system folder from zip in /android/root on your sd. That should be all. Then test it. When making the backup, copy entire Androd folder, because the rest of the files might be affected too.
Also for newer kernels I'd look at Dorimanx' or tytung's work.

ah, ok. well, I do have Dorimax Kernel 7.3 and what I know he is to complicated. I just do not understand nothing from his package, there are many kernels and set-ups, I think that section is for experts. Also I don't know what for you want to update a bit your kernel? If the phone working well keep it in that way. I updated from 7.7 to 8.6 and I losed camera and camcorder. Yes, the rom working well and with this kernel I can do overclock and many other things but now I have to fix the camera. So keep in mind if you update you can have some trouble.
Sorry but I can't help you with Dorimax, is away from my knowledge.
