[Q] confused about kernal

I was wondering about the overclocking kernal for cm7. just how do i put it in. Do I have to do that when I first install or can I add it later. also does it really help. I mean is the difference really noticeable or not at all. I am still deciding if I should do it or not.

Kernels are flashed through ClockworkMod and can be flash anytime after you flash a rom. If you use the search bar you can easily find what particular kernel works for your setup.

OK, I think I found the right one but I was also wondering if I could install it when I first installed cm7. When I installed it I saw that it was searching for the kernel and for gapps but didn't find the n and skipped it. Could I install it then

CM7 has the ability to be overclocked as it sets.
settings > CM settings > performance > CPU settings.
just be extremely careful when Overclocking devices. it can takes it's toll in the long run.
and the g/apps are not kernel dependent they are ROM dependent.

OK but what do you mean by gapps are not kernal dependant

On *UNIX based devices. They have a section of the firmware called the "kernel". The kernel accepts the coding, binary and scripts from the RAM/ROM and tells the hardware how to act, what to do, and when to do it.
The g/apps have nothing to do with the kernel.
The g/apps are Google's property and cannot be included in AOSP based ROMs. Those ROMs are developed from Google's code. And developers do not have the ability to add those at will. So we must flash them after/prior (depending on he ROM) to get the Google Apps.

YES! DO IT!
for me its like day and night, it so much smoother with dals OC kernel. and yes you can flash the OC kernel any time. you can flash cm7 rc1 then OC kernel in the same boot. or you can first install cm7 to check it out for a while and then later flash the new kernel. if you planning to flash dal's 6/18 kernel, make sure to get his app NC Tweaks.

thanks. What I want to know is how to flash it. do I do it the same way as gapps( have wifi and reboot in recovery mode) or is there a different way?

You place the over clock zip file in the root of your sd card and flash it through cwm like you would a rom or gapps. So for example you would flash cm7 then gapps then the overclock kernel.

Not to Jack this thread, but I want to update from cm7 old kernel to New nightly build. Does the new kernel flash with the nightly?

When you move from stable cm7 to cm7 nightly the new kernel is included. However the included kernel is overclockable only to 975mhz. If you want a higher clock speed you'll have to use dals 6182011 kernel, up to 1200mhz.

whats is cmw?

it's actually CWM.
ClockWork Manager
basically boot into recovery then flash.

OK. but this may be a stupid question but will the cm7 kernal work with the stable version7.0.3 because that is what I have.

I'm not following you cannot use just a Cyanogen(mod) kernel. They are built into their ROMs.

sorry, but no. dal's 6/18 OC kernel will not work with 7.0.3....
...just flash n118 and you'll be fine

Ok thanks anyway. do you know when the kernal will work with a stable version

The latest nightly should be considered stable. It is in release candidate stable for the next stable build. The next stable build should be released in the next couple of days.

There is a Clockwork ROM Manager and a ClockworkMod Recovery image.
Together they are known as "CWM" Since one is a recovery and the other is a ROM manager.

[Q] how do run latest cm 10.2 nightly with latest franco kernel nightly

I wanna run these two together but when I install Franco it messes up the screen color....
Plz help

youre mistaken, its not franco kernel that messes up your screen color, its your cm10.2 nightly.
cm xhanged its sourse from aosp to qualcomm, so running any asop kernel in cm will give you that effect. only cm based custom kernels will be fine. theres a temporary flashable fix for this floating around, if it still works that is.

Yes lately cm is causing some color problems.
Here is the colorfix zip file flash this in recovery and also use a JSS kernel AFAIK cm needs a JSS kernel'
COLORFIX zip : DOWNLOAD
Press thanks if I helped you.

how about CM11.. is there any colorfix available yet?
i flashed CM10 colorfix for the 4.4.X based CM11 variant but seems it'll restart the session after the boot animation

[Q] CM11 Kernel situation

Are they still going the CAF route? Or is that ending since it mainly had to do with freezes (if I recall) in 4.3?
It's going to affect my decision to go back to 10.1. I really want to have touch2wake on my kernel and these fixes to make faux and franco kernels function are starting to cause issues on 10.2.
AFAIK, these developers will not be supporting CAF =/

freezes on 4.3 was due to bug in aosp jss code, witch have been fixed in 4.3.1. so update to lastest cm.
and in 4.4 they will continue.

Yeah, I'm running the stable release of 10.2 with ziddley's franco kernel and it's causing issues here and there now. I was hoping they were going to revert back to AOSP. I guess I'll revert back to 10.1 to maintain my desired functionality for now.

Yeah, unless there's some way to get touch2wake working on 10.2; I heard you have gamma settings now with the caf kernel included so I figure I can maintain my color scheme.

try with other kernels.

On CM11 and Cm10.2 try these: 1) Modified franco and faux to work on Cm : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2487246
2) AK has CM exclusive kernel : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2473454

You can always follow a tutorial to build your own cm from source code and enable module support. In that way you won't be using custom kernels, everything will be cm 100%.
I am using touchcontrol in that way, and I'm quite happy with the results.

CM11 is great with hells-core. Touch control works, and battery/performance is amazing.

[Q] install AK kernel with slimkat rom

I am now using slimkat beta 1.95 with stock kernel of the rom and I want to flash the ak kernel v.305 on my phone.
Can I flash it directly?
BTW, how does this kernel do in battery life and what app can I use to adjust the performance？
Thanks...

And I am using the trickster Mod ,I fond a problem that I can't lock the min frequency to 162HZ or even 384hz, it will jump back to 912Hz automatically. Howver, the system monitor app shows that my cpu was working on 384-1512Hz.
Do you know how to solve this pro?
BTW, I have used ak kernel for almost 1 day and I think ak kernel makes the battery drain faster than the slim stock kernel....kind of upset:crying:
