Thanks for the prompt reply, I updated defy as you said but I didn't wipe cache,dalvic and still its working fine. Do I really need to wipe and what is the significance of doing so??

[Q] change kernel nexus 7

hi i'm stape and i'm new for this forum and i have this question.
i put on my nexus7 the trinity kernel but the tablet overheats on the retro, and i want to change to standard kernel.
how can i return to standard kernel??
thanks for the answers

What ROM? Or are you on Stock? If on Stock the way i can think of is finding an AOSP rom and flashing the boot.img? Should have made a nandroid before flashing. You could also try using Franco Kernel.. its just like stock and his app is great.

i have a cyanogen 11 and i have changed original kernel with the trinity kernel but i want returned to original kernel
how i can do it??

You should still have the zip correct? Just boot into recovery wipe cache and dalvik. And reflash the ROM and gapps. Reboot and you'll be running the stock kernel.

[Q] Flashing PA - questions about flash and kernel

Hi everyone,
I've recently flashed to CM10.1 and I think it's great, I'm a big UI guy though and understand that PA offers some great UI changes.
I'm currently on CM10.1 +franco r28.
1. If I do a flash to PA, do I need to do a full wipe?
2. Does full wipe remove franco kernel?
Appreciate your help.

Yes, it is always romnded to make a full wipe, especially when coming from a different ROM.
It flashes everything, including gapps and kernel, so you'll have to flash your favourite kernel again after flashing a ROM.

1. Thumb rule - You changing ROM Full wipe to avoid trouble (and Nandroid before experimenting)
2. Full wipe will remove your kernel. PA comes with stock so if you again need franco you need to reflash it after you install ROM and GAPPS

That's amazing help, both of you, thanks.

[Q] Nexus 4 ROMs

Hi,
I flashed PA 3.95 yesterday but I can't see some of the options that I saw on youtube.
Maybe I need to install something else or it just not in PA?
If I won't find the others options I'll flash other ROM so I want suggestions for a stable feature packed and fast ROM.
Thanks in advenced

What options? Most of the customisation options for PA can be found in the Hybrid settings where you can customise almost everything.

Thanks

The buttons are there if you want to thank us..
I would suggest Slimbean 4.3 or wait for Carbon rom. Both are good.

Why not CM10.2 if you want a stable ROM?

If you are on 4.2.2 factory reset first otherwise skip this step.
rest is alright.. also flash the latest bootloader and radio from PA thread first post.. z20i is the latest bootloader and .84 is the latest radio.
very imp after flashing and wiping is done before rebooting FLASH SUPERSU V1.51 so that you wont have any root issues.. Done.

You know how to flash other ROM's like 10.1 and 10.2? It's similar, but you need to install updated recovery from quarx. Here i teach how to flash ROM's for Defy, but if you are a newbie, i don't recommend starting by CM 11 because it's in alpha, not for daily use. Try starting with CM10.

If you are going to flash gapps, delete first some ringtones and fonts.
And look for 11-16 gapps core.

In latest build by Quarx, no need to remove anything. Just flash update recovery and then flash the latest build (Dec 10) and then gapps.

problems install
OK, I downloaded recovery, gapps and the current file. When I flashed recovery ( after wipe and everything) rebooted, now when I try to go to recovery the screen blanks out, then after a minute boots up, and runs normally. I can't get into team win recovery.wtf?
