DOES anyone know where can i download the android 5.1 original kernel?No modifications.Or at least original stock android 5.1(that comes with kernel too).
look here for your device and the android version you want.
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
After downloading, extract everything until you're in a bunch of .img files.
boot.img is your kernel

I have been looking around for the JLS36C stock kernel (In order to upgrade OTA...) But couldn't find it
Obviously I can extract it from the factory image ad push it from my PC but if anybody had a TWRP flashable version I would gain a bit of time if anybody has it around his desk...
Thanks
I wonder whether there is help for someone who thought he knew how to flash a kernel but apparently is deluded. I have the original nexus seven Wi-Fi tablet android version 4.3 build number JWR66V. The system still wants to update me to 4.3 because I ripped some files out of the cache directory to prevent OTA updates. I have both fastboot and adb. I have read the stickies about flashing.
The phone is rooted and the bootloader is unlocked. I use TWRP custom recovery, and it's a good thing, because I solidly bricked myself up just trying to get my lollipop. I know there are tools to root a nexus seven even with stock lollipop, so I thought I'd upgrade my phone to stock lollipop and then use one of those methods. I tried both the stock lollipop kernel and the one provided by chain fire, which I understand is rooted already. (I'm assuming upgrading to lollipop will lose me my root, unless I want to recover back to 4.3.)
I tried to do these things a couple of different ways. When I tried fast boot, I got the message "error: neither -p product specified nor ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT set". There was a YouTube video suggesting how to deal with this error message. I'm pretty sure I followed the instructions but no go. (I was using the "flash all" command.) This was after I had put the file containing lollipop in the directory, both zipped and unzipped (so that I had an .img file instead of a zip file). I tried using both the zip file with all of the lollipop partitions and the system image file individually. No go. I also had a message that android-info.txt could not be found, even though it was in the same, working directory.
I could be wrong but I don't think you can install a complete updated kernel from a file on the device. I think that works only with update.zip.
I'm still thinking fastboot is my best bet, but there are dependencies apparently and I don't know what files to include in its directory. Then, am I wise to go to stock and then root, or should I simply flash the stock kernel already rooted? I assume that's what chainfire is providing, correct?
I notice the lollipop official ROM nor Chainfire’s supposedly-rooted image have any file named nakasi. I have only .img files, no .zip files.
I found a dozen sets of instructions on how to flash a kernel but something I need is missing from all of them. Does anyone know what it is or can anyone offer some helpful advice?
Thank you,

How would I go about if I want to create my own rom based on the latest samfirm/updato rom?
I have this far downloaded one for s7edge. Unpacked the first zip so I get AP/BL and so forth. I've then unpacked the BL and managed to unpack the boot loader stuff so I have kernel an ramdisk by them self. I then unpacked the ramdisk.. But how do I go on to make this a flashable rom? Preferred is to replace or remove the recovery so I can preserve TWRP. I've done all this so far to get a flashable stock rom that doesn't enforce encryption.. If I get all working I might do more stuff with it
Any help or pointers appreciated!
can somebody post the link for the stock recovery.img .??
Here.
Also, you can download one of the stock ROM images in the Guides section (ensure it matches your latest build), extract the image and inside will be a recovery image.
