I'm Trying to find a 4.4.2 compatible kernel that supports overclocking, under-volting and some battery optimizations (preferably developer supported). I was using Perseus in my Note II and loved it. But since moving to 4.4.2 the one kernel I tried kept the phone from booting. I don't want or need a whole ROM, just a kernel.

I pushed the kernel with TWRP, cleared DALVIK, and nothing but boot loops. Thank goodness for backups. Any ideas of things I could try?

The right kernel would be good.... The link posted was for 4.3, not 4.4.2. The correct version is here

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.

Bott with loki doki which keeps the original kernel.
Alright, I got the update firmware message to go away by just flashing the newest v3.1 Omega ROM and the KT kernel.
Im having the same issue " updating camera firmware. Please wait"
I have tried everything from flash stock with oden and re-rooting the phone and installing CWM with loki and i even flashed loki doki to see if that would help and if i tried to run OMEGA 3.1 without KT kernel all i get is "System software not authorized by ATT has been found on your phone"
Everything in OMEGA seems to be working but as soon as i open the camera app i continue to get "Updating camera firmware... please wait". Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I installed safestrap 3.6 as explained in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2448942
Everything worked fine, created a new slot with 3Gbyte size. However, I could ntot get custom ROM installed there. I copied ROM .zip file (CARBON-JB-1.8-jflteatt.zip) to internal SD card + gapps -jb-20130813-signed.zip. Got "installation completed" message for both ZIPs, and then :
Updating partition details...
E: Unable to mount internal storage. Got green "Successful" message under the window where all log messages were running.
Then when rebooting with newly-flashed ROM slot, the phone does not boot, it is stuck with back screen and the only way to get it back to life is to power-cycle it and boot into stock ROM slot.
Any idea what went wrong?
Phone details:
Model: SAMSUNG-SGH-I337
Android 4.2.2
Baseband version - I337UCUAMF3
Kernel version 3.4.0-812098
Thanks,
Carbon is not tw based. Only touch wiz based roms will work.
I think the only aosp ROM that works is GPE 4.2.2 try that. But check its compatibility first

all the google edition roms work with safestrap as far as I know, I've tested most of them. if it's one from another carrier the most you have to change are the apn settings. I'll be testing VirginROM later.

If you want a good GE 4.3 ROM, try this one:

That's what I use as my daily driver. It works great, and is an untouched 4.3 GE ROM, except for the kernel. You can customize it yourself if you want before you install it.

Hi!
After months of using my S4, I decided to flash custom ROM and kernel. Unfortunately, after flashing KT-SGS4 kernel, my phone gets stuck in Galaxy S4 logo and keeps flashing blue LED. I've tried using CM11 and AOKP, same results.
I hope, someone know how to fix it, thanks!

I know, I'm always doing cache and data wipe. Roms are working correctly, but when i try to change kernel, this happens.
Then you are flashing the wrong kernel. There are 3 different types of that kernel.

twrp. I dont know what you mean by stock rom because this is my first time I did. My device is running 4.4.2. and I chose for kernel 4.4 version of tw.
I think that you have to re-flash a new rom. Then, you have to retry installing root and the kernel.

I agree with msmlz, if you have nandroid restore it or download the firmware in sammobile and reflash it and before flashing the custom kernel again, read the thread, see if someone face bootloop like you. Hope someone with experience on it could help you, I never install custom kernel, just update the last stock kernel on my rooted stock rom.
