[Q] Franco Kernel with stock?

Stock with Franco:
Will it work? Will it give the same benefits as CM 10.1?
Will OTA work? If I sideload OTA will I have to reflash kernel?
CM 10.1:
If I flash new ROM/update ROM, will kernel stay?
Thanks,

Yes the kernel will work. The kernel and rom in CM10.1 is obviously different to stock and francos so im not sure how they compare - try both yourself ?
Im not sure about OTA. I would just flash a AOSP stock ROM every time there is an update just in case if you want to stay on stock.
If you flash a new ROM no the kernel will not stay you have to flash the kernel again as CM10.1 (like most ROMs) comes with its own kernel that will overwrite your current one.

I've been wanting to ask this about faux's kernel since I'm having the (very common) msm_hsic_host wakelock issue. Since we're on the subject: does anyone have a suggestion for the most stable, closest to stock, AOSP ROM?

Kernel for Stock MIUI?

I really want to use Stock MIUI, but I want a custom kernel, so I can control temperature and other stuff. And now that Xiaomi released kernel sources I'd thought I'd find a kernel easily here. So if anyone has a kernel with thermal for Stock MIUI on kitkat, please share it

Which kernels work on Lineageos?

Which kernels work on Lineageos? I'm interested in flashing vegito but I'm unclear if it works? It says to flash over only stock kernel, which lineageos doesn't have, but would it work if I flash stock kernel of lineageos first, then flash vegito?

ElementalX, vegito and quark kernels should work on Lineage OS without issue (though still check their respective pages!)
By flashing only over the stock kernel, the instructions usually mean only flash over the kernel that originally came with the ROM. I imagine it's a bit confusing given the Motorola ROM kernel is also regarded as the stock kernel, but in this case, the 'stock kernel' refers to whatever kernel the ROM you flashed came with. (As an aside, don't try to flash the Motorola kernels on custom ROMs...)
Lineage OS, as with other custom and stock (Motorola) ROMs come with their own kernel included, which you replace when you flash the custom kernel. A reason for requiring that you flash over the stock (originally coming with the ROM you've flashed) kernel only appears to be because custom kernels modify the ram disk of the kernel, which other custom kernels will be incompatible with and may lead to random issues. The stock (in this case, the original ROM kernel) is clean and has no modified ram disk, so should be stable, and thus suitable for flashing a custom kernel.
If you have the original Lineage OS kernel already, then you can flash vegito in TWRP. I'd recommend taking a TWRP backup of your system and of your boot partition before flashing. The boot partition should contain your kernel as it was, so if it's clean, you can revert back from vegito by flashing the boot partition backup. And the system backup is just in case anything happens!
Alternatively, a dirty flash of your current Lineage OS build may flash an original kernel if you don't have one already.

What kernel to install?

First of all, I apologize if I'm in the wrong section. In doubt, you do.
I keep the s4 i9505 with the RR RR 5.8.5. (Last build at the moment).
The problem is the kernel. Because I would like to flash a custom kernel, in order to use Synapse on Nougat 7.1.2.
I've seen Smartpack recently, but I've noticed that the developer has stopped developing and there is no kernel available for the latest build.
Which kernel do you recommend? Which is compatible with RR, possibly the latest build. Thank you in advance!

Guide How to test different Kernels on MIUI 9 ported rom

Friends , we all know that Agni kernel is the only give official supports to miui based rom on redmi note 3 . But there are lot of very good kernels for our kenzo but all the kernel developers support stock android os . I have little bit of issue will agni kernel .so I have been searching xda for a long time about other kernel that can be useful for miui 9 ported rom .
The main problem is all ported rom come with Agni or Unicorn blood kernel . But we can't flash a custom kernel over other custom kernel. so we need stock boot.img to flash first and then we can flash any custom kernel based on android 7.0 .
Today I found a ported rom comes with Radon kernel. so I extracted the boot.img and tried to flash on EPIC, MiuiPRO, Xiomi.eu roms & MIUI.AM by turkdevs, all are working like a charm.Then I tried to flash shadow kernel over it , booting successful but blank screen.
I reflashed Radon Boot.img, get every thing ok . Then I flashed franco kernel and it also working fine .
my point is you can try this and test a good kernel for you now. look at the attachment bellow for radon.img file
you can try it on epic, miuipro based or turkdev ported roms.
FLAST RADON.IMG >THEN CAN TRY ANY CUSTOM KERNEL (obviously based on android 7.x only)
I think this post will help you .
I will not responsible for any thing wrong to you device

Thanks for sharing :good:

I tried this, to see if pokemon go works well with Agni and MIUI.AM (it comes with unicorblood), but it works bad like I reported in Agni Thread.
NOthing changed.
