Hey,
I have Paranoid Android installed on my Nexus 4, I started off by flashing franco #116 which I then changed to msm_hsic_host wakelock fix kernel because the franco kernel had issues with my wifi in one of my rooms, this fixed my wifi issues.
I then flashed faux123's flash reset kernel and then his Mako 012 kernel this resulted in my phone having no wifi, the wireless was just "turning on" constantly.
I flashed several different JDQ39 stock kernels but still no wireless, I re-flashed msm_hsic_host wakelock fix kernel and my wifi is now working.
Basically, I want to know how can I reset my kernel completely so I can go and try out Faux123's Mako 012 kernel
Any help would be much appreciated
I would try reflashing the rom. Dirty flash should suffice. That should reset the ramdisk or whatever. Then flash your kernel. Remember to reflash gapps too! Good luck.

Hey,
Dirty flash = overwrite without wiping right? (This time I'll remember to do a nandroid haha)

yes, just flash kernel and rom again without wipe
Read the WiFi fix kernel thread OP more carefully, it has a link for reverting the WiFi changes.

I knew I saw something about a revert, but couldn't find it. I guess I shouldn't do stuff when it's so early in the morning

I'm thinking of flashing Trinity kernel on my Nexus 7. If I have troubles after flashing the Trinity kernel and want to revert back to my present kernel do I restore a nandroid backup or is there something else I have to do to get present kernel back? Am currently running CM 10.1 jb 4.2.1 on my Nexus 7. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Just do a dirty flash (flash CM10.1 again without factory reset, just wipe cache and dalvik). Your kernel will be overwritten.

yup, thats the easiest way. but you dont have to wipe anything, not even dalvik or cache. you can always extract the boot.img from the cm rom and flash it via fastboot too.
Thanks simms. I'm still trying to figure everything out just got my Nexus for Christmas.

Flashed Trinity kernel on my Nexus 7 and it is great. Am running CM 10.1 JB 4.2.1 latest nightly and so far everything is working awesome. Thanks for everyones input. Thanks to morfic for a wonderful kernel. Boom! Freak out now.
I recently rooted my nexus 7 and now im trying to flash clemsyn's kernel to it, however i haven't been able to get it to work. I've tried rebooting into recovery and wiping the cache and dalvic cache, then installing from zip, but it always fails. any idea why?
You flashed it on which rom? I think it's not compatible with your rom.
Ensure you read the OP of the thread to verify that the kernel is compatible with the version of Android that you're using. Remember, always RTFM, even if you think you know what you're doing.
Do you have to flash a ROM before you flash a kernel?

Roms include a kernel and will overwrite the previously installed kernel. If you want to flash a custom kernel in conjunction with a rom, you always flash the kernel after the rom.
Oh! That makes sense. I'll try that later and see if it works
Hi Everyone,
I have stock rom with franco kernel. Yesterday I reverted back to stock kernel and noticed that it lags now when I wake it from the unlock screen. I did a factory reset, but the lag is still there. This was never there when I had it from the begining. Should I flash the factory image?? Can the backup stock kernel get corrupted?

Try _motley's reset kernel, it restores other files that may have been changed too

after using franco kernel, you have to reflash your rom then kernel. franco kernel hides tweaks inits ramdisk. flashing another kernel on top will not change this ramdisk, so you have to flash your rom first(no wiping anything).
As I stated above...can I just fastboot then flash the factory image??

You can fastboot flash the OEM boot.img; I'm guessing you fastbooted Franco's kernel?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=&d=1361814949
Flash this reset kernel which has the INITFRAMS.
all will be ok.
You don't have to reflash the whole phone.

I suppose I can...however....I currently have a chromebook (ARM)...dunno if I can use fastboot with it. I wanted a solution I could do straight on my phone, like, flashing CWM recovery, then downloading the stock (rooted, CWM flashable) ROM...and flashing it.

Could you clarify this for me, If in the future I need to do it? So, after leaving franco kernel, i.e. If I'm using franco kernel and wanna go back to completely stock again; before flashing stock I'll need to re-flash the current rom that I'm using, to re-flash the rom's kernel and this way replace the ramdisk to the stock from rom? If I'm wrong, please correct me; you guys are awesome!

yes, kinda. reflashing your rom will replace francos ramdisk. all the other kernels use anykernel, so dont have ramdisk included. generally, its only after using franco kernel do you want to do this, the other kernels you can flash right over each other. anykernel kernels grab the available ramdisk. theres plenty of stock/aosp rooted roms here on xda, any of them should work for you.
Anyone else have the issue of it just continuously trying to boot? I'm using the CWM auto-loki that's in the development section.
Reflashed it three more times. Now it freezes @ Samsung battery screen when charging, or if I wait long enough it'll unfreeze. Still loops at Slim Bean startup, what sucks though is that for one thing it mounts as an MTP device so it seems like it's on but just not initializing, another thing is that the original flash I was able to get to the slim bean battery charging screen (but obviously still couldn't turn it on)
Thinking it might be a kernel issue, since I installed ktoonsez's AOSP kernel when I installed it. Any recommendations of a kernel to use? I'm using the CWM recovery that has auto loki so, I could probably use ones made for 9500,9505, etc.
(Pasted this from the Slim Bean thread, haven't gotten an answer in like 5 hours and it's a little urgent xD. I'm on the AT&T S4 of course, any other information I'll be glad to provide. Hopefully this is just a simple fix)
I bet is related to the kernel. I have been using Slim Bean flawlessly, with none of the issues you mention. Using TWRP to flash and recover.

Stock Kernel.

I installed Slim Bean with Ktoon kernel and it worked fine. Just make sure to wipe system and the caches. It did take a little longer to boot the first time but after that it was all good.

Isn't ktoonsez kernel for a Touchwiz based ROM?
Slim Bean is AOSP, therefore i'm not sure they jive correctly, which would clearly explain the OP's problem.
EDIT: Didn't realize he updated an AOSP based Kernel. In anycase OP, I would still attempt using the stock kernel to see if you problems get fixed.
Slim is already LOKI patched, so don't use the CWM that auto-patches, use TWRP

Patching a patched kerenel changes nothing. Dan said if you run loki on a patched recovery or kernel it just send the original to the output. Nothing happens.

I know someone else clarified this already, but when I downloaded Slim it actually wasn't Loki patched for whatever reason, and I couldn't boot without reinstalling stock. I did download the one in the right thread, it just didn't have a boot.lok in it for whatever reason. Anyways, I'm gonna try reflashing and wiping /system another time, wish me luck. I don't have the original kernel backed up though because I'm an idiot, so does anyone have a link to that? If not I could probably scour it out somewhere, but just wondering for convenience's sake.

In advanced restore boot is the kernel.
Download the ROM and addons again, you shouldnt have any issues... If you are currently on stock, do a comprehensive wipe, a manual format of system and data

No files found :/ I guess I'll reinstall stock, back stuff up, and do the comprehensive wipe like you said. I really, really want Slim, lol.
Edit: Well, ****. Reinstalled stock with Odin and now no matter how many times I reboot I only have a status bar.. phone is fairly hot too. So, now I don't even have access to recovery ;-;

I have the sph-l720 s4 running the Google Edition port and the wifi will not turn on and it only seems to be getting 3g with terrible speed test results <5mb down. I have been searching for a couple days to try and figure it out but havent gotten anywhere. I tried flashing agat but that just made my phone boot loop. Please help. If you need any kind of log I can provide one if you tell me how to do it. I'm still a noob

Try Faux kernel, WiFi worked for me using his kernel. MDX is then one I used when I was on that rom and had no WiFi issues.
Jfltespr/CM10.1-Skank 7-28/CM kernel
I would back your apps/data up and format /system, then reinstall the ROM and kernel. Don't forget to clear dalvik cache. Did you install the ROM over an AOSP one?
