incredikernel | no0b question

How should I go abount intalling intellikernel on cm7rc3 . I am a noob and do not really understand the importance of having a seperate kernel (incredikernel is supposed to be superior than the default CM7) .. would I have to do some tweaks after I flash this?
Do I need to wipe anything before I flahs this or any new kernel? is it stable?

Where did you get the "intellikernel" at. Is it supported for the Glacier?

That is for the Droid Incredible.
That is why it will not work on our phone.
You can only flash 3rd party kernels related to your phone, and your skin design. meaning you cannot flash an AOSP kernel for Sense ROM, nor a DInc kernel to a OG Droid.

But I am running CM7 RC3 ... which is AOSP.... I am a little confused.

But the Kernel you are looking at is for the Droid Incredible, not for the HTC Glacier. They are two different phones, with two different hardware packages. You must use AOSP kernels for the HTC Glacier.

Could you suggest one that you really like? and do I have to wipe anything before I flash any kernel?

Personally i suggest running the stock kernel that came with your ROM. And i will only use the kernel that comes with the ROM. The developers have built the ROM to run around that kernel. So it should work the best. I know Faux123 has built some top notch kernels....but i cannot speak first hand.

scroll down until you get to cm7 kernels and download the latest grandkin kernel! instructions are on the page =)

I use fauxs oc/uv just cause he's awesome and you can oc it to 1.8 ghz but you have to be careful when overclocking I'd suggest setting up the governers and profiles in setcpu after flashing the kernel. But no you don't need to wipe anything just boot into recovery and install

Hey y'all, I have CM7 on my Evo and tried to flash incredikernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848453 using clockwordmod rom manager. Everything seemed to go fine but now it will not get past the white htc evo 4g boot screen. How shall I proceed? I was going to just reflash CM7 but wanted to see what the 'correct' thing to do is, help please!
SOLVED, I definitely learned something new today. Kernels are phone specific haha!

What's the most vanilla ICS rom for Note?

Hello,
How are you?
I am a bit tired of Touchwiz and some lag on the phone, so I would like to switch ROMS.
So, I was wondering what is the most pure vanilla ICS 4.0.4 ROM for the Note, wich is stable and has the fewest know issues?
I am sorry for this thread, but there are so many roms developed that it is really hard to choose.
CHeers and thanks!

Well, Paranoid Android is a fantastic ROM for the Samsung Galaxy Note, as it offers a near-ICS experience that allows for both tablet and phone modes. Try it out!

Do I need to flash a modded kernel for that rom?
Or does it work stable and fast with stock GB kernel?

For an ICS ROM you need to use an ICS kernel. But Paranoid comes packaged with the kernel. By the sound of it you are on GB at the moment. If it's already rooted, do a full wipe then flash Paranoid and the GApps package from the same thread.
If you are already on ICS, do not do full wipe until you have read up on how to do it.

Any downsides to this ROM?
I am currently on stock Note, with ICS 4.0.3 and stock kernel. Not rooted.
Would a kernel like Speedmod work better with the nightly rom? Or is a stock GB kernel better?
Whichever rom I choose, I need to use PC Odin to revert to GB before flashing anything, right?
Cheers and thanks!

Why would anyone use cm9 If Paranoid Android is the same with much more features..
You cant use any tw kernels like speedmod. Cm9 need cm9 kernels

can i install Paranoid Android from ICS through Abyss 4.2 kernel ?
i want the safe steps to install ...........

copy Kernel and PA Rom and Gapps Files to your internal SDCard
boot into Recovery
Flash Abyss Kernel 4.2
boot back in Recovery (to find under "advanced")
Factory Reset
Wipe Dalvik Cache (under "advanced")
Flash PA Rom

You can use modded kernels with PA, but only cm based ones like AniDroid/bbq etc.. and not the touchwiz ones like speedmod/franco.
To install, follow what the post above says, or as you mentioned use Odin to go back to gb, root/install cwm, full wipe then install Paranoid Android.

As stated above cm9 only uses cm9 based kernel, you don't have to worry about that, it will install itself when you flash the ROM.

Because not everyone like tablet mod, I've tried PA but returned to cm9 because the phone UI is more suitable for the note .
And then there is the faster update cycle of cm9.

Just my two cents: I found PA to be super buggy in comparison to CM9, the boot splash didn't fit the screen and the UI lagged a lot more, some of the apps were great in tablet mode, but CM9 feels overall far more suited to the Note.

If I install a custom Rom, either PA or CM9, can the note be reverted back to full stock? Recovery, kernel and Rom?
I am on stock is 4.0.3. What's the best procedure to install CM9 nightly?

If you want a true Vanilla experience install the 4.04 Stock Rom, you will find the there are now a lot of people using it, it is stable, fast and the battery life has improved. There is a large difference between 4.03 and 4.04 official ROMS.
I have been using it since it came out and I find that it beats everything else I have tried. On the down side the 4.04 kernel still contains the EMMC Bug so I cannot do a full wipe without reverting back to GB.

[Q] Does a custom Rom come with a Kernel?

Does a custom Rom come with a Kernel?
My specific case :
Nexus 7 32Gb Wifi
Android 4.1.2
Rom : PA 2.54
Kernel : Franco 3.1.10
My plan is to update to PA 2.99Beta6 which is based on Android 4.2.
I'd like to know if I'll also need to flash a new kernel as part of the upgrade process or if the PA 2.99Rom also includes the required kernel.
My guess is that it will be included with the Rom but figured it wouldn't do any harm to ask.

PMSL, how on earth do you think a ROM would actually work otherwise without a kernel.
Sorry but.... #facepalm
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

My fear was that a Rom might use or expect the stock kernel, cheers for the answer though.
With that in mind, I wonder why Roms don't tend to ship with custom kernels. Franco's seems to be widely preferred to stock.

most roms that are actually developed ship with custom kernels(like cm for example). roms that are just compiled from aosp source that have some mods added usually use the default android kernel(or stock roms with added mods). also, many roms ship with other custom kernels included. anyways, many others prefer trinity kernel

Sorry I may have picked up on your question wrong, but many developers, well in fact most would use custom kernels, some prefer stock, stock kernels are generally very stable but quite limited in what they can do, for example take the pretty amazing Siyah on Galaxy S3 which gives you the ability to dual boot different ROM, s, i had AOSP as my main ROM and a Samsung ROM as my secondary ROM which was great for a while but they novelty wore off for me as I really only used the AOSP ROM, not to mention over clocking , etc, etc, etc.
I use Trinity Seven kernel on the Nexus and i find that the tablet seems to charge faster than with the CM kernel that comes with Liquid Smooth ROM.
Hope that answers some of your questions anyway

[Q] Help with ROM

As you guys may know, I recently downloaded the latest matriz mod by mathkid...do you think I need a ROM installed to use at its full potential? If so, which ROM should I install and do I have to re-install the kernel?

1. U don't have to flash another ROM if you are on stock ROM or another AOSP ROM
2. Feel free to flash any ROM u want all AOSP based Ron's should work with this kernel.
3. If u flash another ROM u have to flash the kernel again because the stock kernel of the ROM will be flashed as well.
BTW. Post this kind of questions into the Q&A forum for the N4.

matrix is not a rom, it is a kernel. all roms include kernels, or your phone would never work. all you do is flash matrix over what you have now, and itll replace your current kernel with matrix. that is all, do not over think it, do not make it more complicated then it actually is. and no, no one can tell you what rom to run, it is only your personal choice and no one elses. there are roms in the development section, read their threads, then you decide.

I know matrix is a kernel, I'm saying which one would be the most appropriate to go with it. One more question: Whenever there's an android update and I have flashed a Rom and Kernel, do I have to redo the flashing process again? ex. Android 4.4.4

What radio you using or are you not having the LTE drop out?

Benzo rom + Vindicator kernel make my N6 the device it was meant to be. Hydra kernel is not bad either.
If you've taken the steps needed to flash a custom kernel, why not just nandroid your stock build and try some rom's? I'm assuming you have a custom recovery in place if you'r playing with kernels. You don't like it, restore back to stock in less then 5 minutes. I personally have not had any issues of note on the kernels and rom I mentioned. I did have issues on other combinations, but no harm done.
The functionality additions are light years ahead of what stock offers; custom drop down tiles, privacy settings, customizations, themes, etc.

Pretty much any kernel is going to give better battery life just out of the box before any tweaking. UV by -25 and u already are saving battery. Most kernels fix memory leaks and such too. Then there's the added benefit of extra optional features like OC/UC and wake gestures.
