hi guys
has any of you managed to get their hands on kitkat on our n7, or somehow know is the kernel version still 3.1.10?
thanks, cheers
Kernel is still 3.1.10. (At least in the current non-official build released by PA)

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!
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)
You can contribute and follow the progress (dev wise) at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2243410 and http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/t...lopment-0610-android-booting-firmware-issues/
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?
Hi,
there are a lot of us out there that still use the Galaxy player (3.6, 4.0, 5.0 and 4.6(I think it is) ) if we could get some form of backport to these devices for this rom that'd be great!
also currently I am running the sultan kernel v7 for the galaxy player 5.0 and the pacman rom nightly build but would be willing to help test builds on the player 5 for Omni if need be.

I have a Player 5.0, although it's been hardbricked for over a year. I never got around to using AdamOutler's Unbrickable Mod to resurrect it - just haven't had the time.

that sucks. come to think of it. back when I was using your kernel for my device in gingerbread I remember you saying something about that!
at any rate. if you build or whatever I can test. i'm proficient enough in flashing my device that I can probably handle alpha builds of kernel and/or roms
btw I don't know if you've been following the sgp forums here or not but a guy recently released this thread outlining how to flash the player back to stock kernel and firmware while keeping it rooted even

Hi, How do I know if zRAM is enabled in the new update from Google for my Nexus 7 (2012) WiFi ?
I tried running ZRAM Status ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=id.co.ptskp.android.zs ) and it fails to open zRAM related files.
Kernel version
Hi
You need a fairly new kernel version (At least 3.7 I think) to have ZRam available for Arm devices, so check you kernel version. I'm pretty sure it's too old for this. I'm currently trying out the exact same feature using linaros android release with the 3.10 kernel and their fast models simulation tool, simply because I haven't found a device with a proper kernel that is stable.

Hi, I have a Nexus 5 running Android 4.4.2 with kernel 3.4 in it. I know that 3.4 is old for zram. I'm trying to compile 3.14 for Nexus 5. But the kernel image of 3.14 can't run properly on my Nexus 5. Do you have any idea? Thank you!
I use z-ram.. should I?
I put slimkat on my n7 2012, then m-kernel a69 on that. Trickster mod has a zram option now. Should I use it? With only a gig of ram not sure I want to lose 10%. Tests with it on or off seem the same.
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?
