If you look in the clean Rom preview thread he has the stock kernel posted. I will add a link when I get home to his thread if you have trouble finding it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] denversc:
You can also just backup your current kernel in TWRP recovery, and restore it if your new kernel doesn't work out. Select "backup" in recovery and checkmark "boot" to backup your kernel only.

Hi there.

I very rarely need to post on forums to ask for help but in this instance i would like a little help before i proceed.

I have unlocked bootloader, and rooted my phone but im stuck on the next two steps i would like to proceed with.

Before hitting me with the old "use the search button" i have been through many pages and i am genuinly stuck. So please genuine help only.

The two steps i would like help with are the following.

1: Installing a custom rom. How is this method performed? Do i download rom and put it on memory card and install from Clockwork or do i need to do a bit more reading and install from fastboot?

2: I would like to install a modded kernal as well. Is this done through Clockwork or fastboot and does it require installing in a specific order i.e. rom first kernal second.

All help would be appreciated.

The available guides out there are not bad (and very appreciated), but i feel leave a few holes that I have ask for help for in the above for the modest rom flasher, Hopefully the answers to these questions could help others with simalar need.

Kind regards

Alex.
[HTC One S] WCCobra:
You are in the wrong forum section. To answer you questions:

1. Download rom and put it on memory card and install from Clockwork

2. Fastboot

No specific order, but I usually install the ROM first and then the kernel.
[HTC One S] invasion2:
Lol if you searched you would've seen the stickies in the forum you posted your question in, which is the wrong forum!

1. Backup, wipe, flash ROM.

2. Reboot to fastboot then flash it using one of the many guides in this forum if you really searched.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] victorinoxs:
Hi,

I've done battery pull thousands of times, never an issue. Today, I hit shut down first, and pulled the battery before it's properly shut down, the device was then immediately soft bricked. I didn't know it was possible to brick a device by pulling battery...Is it really soft bricked? Could it be something else?

Now it's stuck at Samsung logo bootloop. Recovery Mode still works. I tried wiping cache, dalvik cache, flashing different recovery, kernel...etc, still stuck at Samsung logo.

Is it possible to fix it without losing all the data?

Thanks a lot!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] victorinoxs:
Thanks.

Yes, my kernel is safe.

So, the nandroid backup will be clean (not infected by this problem)? Will it be safe to restore later? Will it also restore the soft brick problem??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sahilarora2003:
Nandroid Backup will restores you the state in which you were when you took backup. How can you be sure its a soft brick ? Hope its not. Just a corrupted system or file maybe. Just restore it and c if it works for you. :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] victorinoxs:
I made a nandroid backup, did a factory reset, and then tried to restore System & Data separately.

After restoring System, it still boots; after restoring Data, it enters the same boot loop problem.

So I guess it's just corrupt Data caused by battery pulling....

I'll try to restore apps from the nandroid image....fingers crossed...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
fastest would be to wipe cache, dalvik and then fix permissions. That usually fixes stuff.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] victorinoxs:
As a matter of fact, that's the very first thing I tried, no luck. I was using NoteCore kernel by g.lewarne.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
yeah that kernel has some bugs. Try new or different version.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] victorinoxs:
What bugs? The version I had was 14.1 and I think it's even more stable than the most recent HydraCore, at least on TW ROMs....

I also tried the latest HydraCore and Speedmod kernels.....anyway, that didn't help.

Something must have happened during system shutdown and the battery pull just happened at the worst time possible and caused the Data corruption and bootloop, which can only be fixed by wiping Data.

Fyi, I already use this app, work fine previously on gingerbread 2.3.3, but after I do the phone reset, wifi freeze agian. So, I tried out using back this app, but not successful. Then, I thought if I upgrade the android version will remove this issues.

So, after I upgrade to new ROM, method as mention above, problem still persist.

Lastly, I tried using this app on current ROM, ROM JB X-Treme CM10 1.5 Pure, using Siyah dorimanx 3.0.42, the progress stuck at reading profiles as picture attached. Please help..

I heard this is because of board prob, after they upgrade to ICS ROM.

Hi

I am trying to put together a really good 2.6.35 kernel so we can have a stable CyanogenMod 7.2. I am using TomGiordanos source here:

https://github.com/TomGiordano/kernel_huawei.git

and building off the 2.6.35-ICS branch using the .config from the b5xx kernel here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1653699

I got the source to compile and it all seems to work quite smoothly. It has a couple of issues though. Biggest is that the wifi just gives an error when trying to turn it on. Next is that the key brightness does not work, but I think I know where the problem is with that. Any help to get the wifi going would be awesome for a start though.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PaulMilbank:
Buckington is pushing to the TomG source repo. Wireless is fixed if I build against their cyanogenmod_u8800_defconfig instead of the config from forumbers kernel he found. HDCRJacob had made a commit which forced the wifi to enable in the cyanogenmod defconfig and another file.

Now we have other problems like camera, light sensors and maybe some other stuff if I use their defconfig. Kernel building is fun...

I just started reading around on here and it seems to have gotten very confusing with all of this kernel talk and everything. Can someone tell me if I can flash a updated kernel while still on this old Rom, and then backup this android 2.3 Rom, then flash an ICS or JB Rom? I need to knkw if she doesn't like the new Rom, will I be able to restore the old 2.3 Rom with this new kernel and recovery.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MiguelHogue:
An updated kernel? If you mean ICS or JB kernel you cant do that.. You can only use gingerbread kernels with gingerbread.. Now if you want to try some JB / ICS

Just make a back up of what you have... Grab your rom of choice

Wipe everything(its safe since your on GB), and flash your ICS/JB rom (kernels are included with these roms so no worries)

Now when you want to restore just go back into the recovery of your rom(whatever you flashed) and restore the calk rom.. It will be just like you left it

Just go to the Android development forum (not original development) there's a sticky there called kernel repository find any gingerbread kernel and as long as it's not rouge recovery you'll be able to backup her current ROM and flash any new one you want.

Hi everyone. I am new to this forum, but trying to find an answer to my problem.

I have an HTC Sensation 4G from T-mobile running 4.0. Recently started Beta testing Solavei. I put the Apn settings that they gave me in the phone. I am getting 4G data, but I can't get mms. Ivemtried several suggestions of other users, but it seems none of them are using the sensation.

I saw a thread on this forum about a file that will reset the factory T-mobile APN, but I'm not exactly sure how I would go about putting the file in and if this would help. I am not really interested in rooting the phone or developing or anything like that.

There are 2 APN's solavei gave me. One for data and one for mms. There are 2 other t-mobile APN's in the phone (data and mms). I'm worried I might need to delete the tmobile mms, but since it's 4.0 I can't use back up and restor to do it.

Any help would be appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Try this go to Setting/Mobile network/Acces Point Names and then press the menu button. When the pop up menu appears select Reset to default. Then open the T-Mobile APNs and edit those APNs to the APNs for Solavei. Make sure press the menu button and select save before you back out of the APNs. Do this for both the data APNs and the MMS APNs.

Also if Reset to defaults does not remove all other APNs then do this. Select the APNs you want to remove and then press the menu button and select either Delete APN or Discard. One of these should remove the APNs. I think if you just edit the original T-Mobile APNs your device should work properly. But you may have to remove the T-Mobile APNs all together and just creat new APNs for Solavei.
[HTC Sensation] Maybaby:
Neither of those work, because the APN's are locked ( there is a little lock next to them). Reset to default just leaves them there and they are uneditable. I already tired both. But thanks for the advise. I'll keep looking for an answer.
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Have you SIM unlocked your device? Also the APNs that the device is using should have a little green dot to the right of the data APN.

Edit: I reread your first post and I think you are talking about the PG58DIAG.zip file. This file will allow you to SIM unlock your device, you must be SIM unlocked to use another carrier with your device. You can find this file in this thread here. You just need to put the file on the root of your SD card and then boot your device into the bootloader and it will automatically scan for the file and ask if you want to install the update. Just follow the on screen instructions and then follow the on screen instructions when the diagnostic starts. Here is a hint when you are done running the diagnostic you will have to pull the battery and then put it back in. Also when running the diagnostic you want to choose yes for all the options it ask if you want to do.
[HTC Sensation] Maybaby:
I unlocked it using the htcdev. Is this different? The green dot is on the solavei data APN, but there is no green dot for MMS.
[HTC Sensation] Maybaby:
This is the thread I was refering to.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1691633
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Yes SIM unlock is different from unlocking your bootloader which is what HTC Dev does. When you SIM unlock the device you unlock it so it can use any SIM card from any carrier, if you do not SIM unlock it you can not use the device on any other carrier but the carrier the device was made for. The thread you linked is just for unlocking the T-Mobile APNs to try and keep them from knowing you are using your device as a mobile hotspot for other devices. It has nothing to do with unlocking APNs for use with other carriers.

Ok, thanks. I will try the instructions that you sent me. Thanks so much!
