There are some great kernels here for d801...but nothing that supports cm11 4.4.3. ...is there a reason no one is building cm kernels...code issues...source?

Question about Different ROM bases.

So I want to install a custom rom but I am confused as to which I should use. I've read different roms and I've seen that they have different rom "bases" like cm 10.1, aokp, aosp, and PA(does it have a different rom base?). Just a question, what is the differences among them? Please help so I can decide which to flash.
Hmmm, good question, well most of the ROMs here are build off of official ROM source and thats what it means by base and the difference between them is almost everything from ui to features and stuff like that and to know which ROMs you like try flashing the the official ROMs like AOKP, CM, AOSP, and PA and then once you find the base you like then flash the other ROMs that are customized versions built from that ROM base

All of these ROMs are built from AOSP; that's Android Open Source Project. It's where Google officially releases the source code. All custom ROMs on this type of device will be built on AOSP. If a ROM says it has CM or AOKP base, that means they built it off the source code for that ROM (which is initially built off AOSP) and added their own tweaks or whatever.

I'm a little bit confused as to which ROMS use 4.4 kk kernel? CM, PA, Mahdi?

Hello everyone!
I'm currently on CM11 nightlies on my d800 and I'm a tad bit confused as to what is going on with the 4.4 kernels. What AOSP ROM's are currently using 4.4 and not the JB kernel?
Does that mean CM11 is falling behind because it's still using the JB kernel?
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks a bunch!!

There is a list that usually has [4.x.x] in the Roms description: [INDEX][REPO][AIO] LG G2 - ROMs | Kernels | MODs | Recoveries [NEW-UPDATED][5.5.14]
By the way, [4.x.x] is the ANDROID ROM version (Jelly Bean, Kit Kat etc), not the KERNEL version.

I think the OP is confused.. Maybe he's trying to ask the same as i..
1- What are the AOSP ROMs that are actually using the 4.4 LG Sources?
2- We all know that PA is using the 4.4 LG Sources (at least, Houstonn has started to merge them).. So, what ROMs are using Houstonn's source code?
Anyone?

This is exactly what I'm asking! I didn't know how exactly to type it out.
I don't have a direct answer. There is the XDA Kernels, but there isn't much there.
I guess searching would be the best thing to do.
Why the worry about the kernels anyway?

Mahdi 2.5 release 1
Paranoid Android 4.3+ betas
Furnace kernel 2.2.x
Those are the only G2 ROMs/kernels that use the full 4.4.x source tree, drivers and binary blobs. You need to use the LG 4.4.x baseband with these ROMs.
All other ROMs and kernels for the G2 use the 4.4.x Android sources with the 4.2.x kernel sources, drivers, and binary blobs. You need to use either the LG 4.2.x baseband, or the 4.4.x baseband modified by dr87.
You cannot mix kernels between ROMs if they use different source trees for the kernels.
And is you use the wrong baseband for the ROM, you will lose sensors, GPS, and auto-rotate; or it will bootloop.

Only those two ROMs?
So far, yes, those are the only two.

Question before buying, CM , Kernel.

Hi,
I'm deciding what to buy , LG G2 32 GB or Nexus 5 16 GB.
Nexus is more expensive, but it has very stable Custom ROMS, and many kernels for STOCK or CAF ROMs.
My question are:
- Is CM stable and bugfree on G2 ? Does it have the same battery life as stock ? First thing I would do would be flashing any AOSP based ROM, can't stand LG bull**** ( happy optimus 4x HD user )
-What kernels are compatible with CM, is there division between stock and CM kernels ?
-Is Dorimanx kernel CM compatible ( it seems like the best kernel here ) ?
-Does the permament screen damage still happens ? ?
thanks a lot !
- Is CM stable and bugfree on G2 ?
Somewhat. A few random reboots here and there is to be expected.
Does it have the same battery life as stock ?
No. It's worse.
First thing I would do would be flashing any AOSP based ROM, can't stand LG bull**** ( happy optimus 4x HD user )
Stock based roms are much better than AOSP.
-What kernels are compatible with CM, is there division between stock and CM kernels ?
AOSP kernels for AOSP ROMS and Stock based kernels for stock based ROMS. Render kernel is compatible, have a look around in the original android development section.
-Is Dorimanx kernel CM compatible ( it seems like the best kernel here ) ?
Dorimanx kernel is only for stock roms, although there has been somebody who has made it work with AOSP. It's pretty outdated now, I think.
In short, stick with a Nexus 5 if you want AOSP. And horrible battery life.
AOSP is a must for me... This LG stuff is so ugly... I would not be able to use this phone with stock ROM. Anyone here can say something about running AOSP ROMs ? How is your experience ?

possible replacement for Boeffla Kernel when upgrading to a cm14 based ROM

I am currently using Boeffla Kernel (3.3 Beta 1 atm) with ResurrectionRemix 5.7.4 (atm Blackjubel's 20161012 build) and I am very happy with it. I have slightly overclocked my G900F to 2.6GHz, I have NTFS support, I can activate UMS Mode, if I want (one of the greatest features recently added) there are lots of governors with many different options and I could continue to rave about this kernel but as soon as the XPosed Framework gets it's first working version for Android 7, I will upgrade (if possible to Resurrection Remix, but there is already a great working version of AICP for the KLTE) and LordBoeffla already announced, that he won't continue his kernel for the KLTE with CM14. This is really sad, but no reason to stay with CM13.
What I wanted to ask you with this long and badly written text: has anyone here on XDA an idea, which kernel I could possibly install together with a CM14 based ROM if I want OC features, different governors, NTFS support and possibly also UMS Mode to stay?
Thanks in advance

Recent [KERNEL] for Chroma [6.0.1] _r62 ROM for N4

It seems Chroma is no longer developed and the kernel is getting old without security updates. How do I know what actively developed kernel is compatible with that ROM? Thanks for any feedback.
Since Chroma rom is a AOSP based rom, you can use whatever AOSP kernel you like. You can try Quanta kernel (v20). I'm using it on Dirty Unicorn rom since 2 months
Thank you very much. So the first is to find the base ROM, AOSP for Chroma. Also, is it correct to assume I have to pick an AOSP kernel for marshmallow (if they have for all of the Android variants)?
Nevermind: It is in Quanta's page for kernel v20:
"This kernel is made for Android 5.1 (Lollipop) up to Android 6.0. (Marshmallow)"
Thanks again.
