Dear Developers and Publishers of Custom ROMs, here is a suggestion and request to publish your Great ROMs.
Since many of us flash your ROMs and most of are not really that well versed with working on the system, it would be helpful you all publish your ROMs using a common template that simplifies the flashing of ROMs for everybody without getting confused about the ROM+gapps+kernel+Radio+SPL combination that work.
You could mention, the name of the ROM, its features and changelogs. Then publish the information of the requirements something like this.
ROM version:
Kernel :
ROM link :
gApps link :
Radio :
SPL :
If there is a new version, information about it could be added as a new row either above or below the previous.
This would help the users to find the information easily and quickly.
The other benefit would be the number of testers for the ROM would increase and thus provide you with valuable feedback which would help you to fix the bugs or make improvements for the ROMs.
Just a thought.
Hi,
I am trying to modify a kernel for Samsung Galaxy 3. I have successfully compiled stock kernel from Samsung Sources.
I am new to kernel development and want to add new features to it like overclocking etc.
Can any one please suggest me links or give info regarding how to go about it.
For example, how to modify the frequencies supported by kernel or bus speed in the source code?
Thanks,
Abhijeet
Check github for modifications to the base. I don't know about Samsung kernels, but a quick search of github shows plenty, like this:
https://github.com/kangsterizer/android_kernel_samsung
click on the comments to see only files affected by OC/UV mods like this from the above example:
https://github.com/kangsterizer/and...mmit/1817cd02de8165a4f96746d4dddec3ef4347cb2d
See if you can move those changes into your own kernel.
Anybody knows which files contain the information needed to oc the cpu and gpu?I'm trying to build a kernel but i can't find info about this for our phone.Actually there isn't much info for this subject in general.Other phones with the same cpu have plenty of oced kernels so it's doable for r4p as well.
Ask the devs who works on kernel on Telegram.
Hi all,
I like to try tweaking and hacking my phone. I've tried some ROMs on my kugo for some time, but I figured I wanted to make my own personalized build. Right now, I'd like to use the 'Night Light' app from F-Droid, which requires KCAL support. In order to enable KCAL I'd need to edit the stock kernel (I know this can be done, it was the case for Genesis Kernel on Nougat).
Hence I'd want to learn to compile a kernel, but I can't get to the end of Sony's tutorial. I've downloaded the kernel source but I am totally lost with defconfig files. How should I configure the kernel ? There is no obvious choice for a defconfig, and I can't get past point #6 in the tutorial..
Given that I've just discovered kernel compilation today, would someone be kind and take some time to maybe point me to useful doc, give me a clue as to what my next step could be, or teach me how they compile kernels for their device ?
Many thanks for any help,
Cheers
TLDR. How to compile a kernel? I have Sony's source for kugo, but don't understand how to configure the kernel compilation.
I am new to android kernel build stuff. So please forgive me if this is not the right platform to raise this query.May i know the steps involved in building the kernel? I am trying to build the stock kernel updated by oneplus in github. Any help or supporting links about kernel compilation will be of utmost help to me. Thanks!

Kernel devs most likely uses scripts to compile their kernel which you can probably find in their github and adapt for yourself
