If that doesn't work, QuickPic will(and it's a great gallery app). DL it and when you go to wallpaper, select QuickPic instead of gallery. It didn't work for the lock screen though(since it has to be cropped), only home screen.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AldenIsRad:
Use Multipicture Live Wallpaper. I normally use this for multiple wallpapers but it allows you to not crop and fit whole home screen. Just download from play store. Hold on on screen click wall paper, then live wallpaper, then multipicture live wall paper, settings.. And assuming yo uwant the same wallpaper for all, go to general settings, picture source, find the picture, and just go back and press set wallpaper.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Searz:
Heya, everybody.

I'd like to know if you guys could recommend a good kernel for undervolting and overclocking the Nexus 7. (I'm only looking into very mild overclocking, I don't want worse battery life)

But here's the main thing: I'm wondering about how you'd best go about updating your tablet after flashing a custom kernel. Will I be able to take OTA updates? Am I forced to flash new ROMs every update?

I'd just like the most simple way of updating my OS while being able to overclock and undervolt my Nexus 7. (OTA updates would be the most simple, right? If possible ofc)

I've got a Nexus 7 32GB. Android 4.2.1, IC 3568A-ME370T, Model ME370T, Build JOP40D
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berkos:
there aren't many kernels so quick search through android/original sections 1st pages you can find information about everything you need. i would suggest m-kernel or omega most stable (on my device) and with features you seek, although OC is kinda pointless IMHO if you are not going to benchmark it and given how scores/real world perfomance show well...it's pointless :D

i think you can't easily just update rom and keep kernel, but it's not much work, download newer version of the rom flash it, flash kernel, boot and resume... 5mins tops.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Searz:
Okay, I'll have a look at them. Thanks.

Well, even if I'm only getting a 5% increase in performance or battery life I still consider it worth it. It's a rather simple upgrade that will last for years (I plan on taking good care of my device :) )

Wait, so you can update Kernel and ROM separately?

Am I correct in assuming that most ROMs (including stock) come with a Kernel that will replace whatever Kernel I have?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevk60:
I am using trinity kernel alpha 4 version along with cm 10.1 ROM. Can over clock to 1.7 GHz with this kernel. Downloaded trinity tool box also. You can under clock, over clock and set voltages along with some kernel tweaks. Has worked flawlessly so far. I also downloaded and installed cyan delta app. It will flash the delta file of each nightly you want and also flash kernel all in one shot. (Cyan Delta will only work with CyanogenMod ROMs.)

I found this thread:

I'll probably use Franco if possible, cuz amazing battery life. I noticed that my Nexus 7 only lasts like 5hours when gaming with it(stock clocks). That's not good enough for me! :S

If it doesn't work I'll probably go for Omega or M-Kernel. (or AOKP stock kernel)

I'll probably go for Paranoid Android 3.0 with the Franco kernel. I've read that they're compatible.

Updating to newer versions might be a bit of a pain, but the cool functions are probably worth it :3
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ynrozturk:
You don't need to update every time a new version of a ROM or Kernel comes out, you know. If it's setup and working perfectly, the best thing to do would be to enjoy your tablet.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
OTA updates do a lot of validation checks before they begin; in fact, they perform a checksum on every file targeted for a patch update.

It is quite common (not always, but common) for the kernel or ramdisk to be modified during an OTA update - so this means a high likelihood that an OTA update will not succeed on a device with a custom kernel.

There are lots of ways to do what you want, though; two basic strategies would be:

- From a backup, restore only the (stock) boot partition. Apply the OTA, and then restore a backup of your OC kernel/boot partition.

- Using Titanium Backup (or Carbon), back up your apps & data. Restore a pure stock backup, and take the OTA update on that. Make a Nandroid Backup of this. Flash the replacement kernel & a root kit. Boot and restore your apps. (This method is more labor intensive).

Note the frequent mention of full (nandroid) backups in the above. Backups are a good thing to have; make them early and often.

Anyway, there you go - two methods for the price of zero.

I prefer PA3.0 & Motley Kernel

I use PA3.0 with Motley Kernel and it works like a champ. There are stretches where I get 2-3 days of battery life (but I am paranoid and have everything disabled when I don't use it, and brightness down to ~15%). ;) The link you provided though is a good resource.

--dchriste
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] berkos:
Well don't expect major improvement in battery life while gaming, maybe if you down clock CPU for less demanding games, if you run demanding 3d games like Horn you will drain battery fast. Kernels change from version to version, performance and battery wise, so try different versions from same Dev. When it comes to games the way tegra 3 is designed you will not see much of benefit if any from oc cpu. Just look at the latest m36 kernel, your n7 will basically become dual core device with immeasurable performance loss. All I want to say don't expect wonders. If you are after battery life I would suggest you to look into other less bloated ROMs, like code fire, dirtybox, rasbean jelly. Paranoid is great in some aspects but I found less popular roms are easier on the battery, but not by a large margin.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevk60:
I would have to agree. You do not have to update your rom with every nightly or your kernel with every version. If your tab is working fine, use it for what you got it for. Sorta like Murphy's law. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. (Read the changelogs)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Searz:
Yea, I won't be reflashing things unless there's new features that I really want.

Motley is apparently one of the "worst" kernels when it comes to optimization and battery life. The best thing about it is probably the features, but I don't really need any of them, so I probably won't be using that one :P

Yea, that seems to be the case from what I've read. But flashing the stock kernel would make it work fine, right?

This seems like it has a possibility of going wrong. I think I'll go with the second method.

This method is actually not that "labor intensive". As long as you've got Ti Backup Pro it's very easy to do this, you just gotta wait a while things backup/restore.

Yea, I realize now that battery life when gaming probably won't change much.

Battery life is very important to me, but if it comes at the expense of features then the difference has to be noticeable.

How has your experience been? (compare the ROMs you've used)

Got tired of this call LG ... send all the paper work .. and now they have to send me a new phone!

This is the procedure to get your phone replace. And by the way ... i never bricked my phone! Still on ICS ... but i try CM10 and got dropping call too...

hi guys, can i flash the ics stock Kernel: 3.0.16 with vipers rom 1.6.3 ? without bootloop ? and if i get a bootloop can i flash the stock boot.img to fix that or no?

i have tried all the kernels but i like to go back to the stock kernel with a custom rom, even if some features is not gonna work such as burst mode. or battery drin... im good with that.

i just wanna make sure they are compatible before i screw myself and format my phone again...:D

thanks:good:
[HTC Sensation] hunt:
My friend, Stock Kernel won't work with Viper ROM at all..u'll surely get bootloop..So dont try even..

Viper is the Pure port from HTC One S villeC2..HTC has never put Sense 4 for Sensation..So that makes no any sense to flash the ICS Stock kernel..

Use Bricked or Sebastian FM's Kernel..they are majorly depended on Stock kernel with modified some changes that can handle ICS sense 4.x :)

Sent from hunt's Sensation
[HTC Sensation] salwansk:
thanks alot for your explanation
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
The stock kernel works with ViperS. First of all, all kernels for the Sensation are based off of the stock kernel source, so it will DEFINITELY work. Secondly, it doesn't matter if the ROM was ported from the HTC One S VILLEC2; there would only be a problem if ViperS was Jelly Bean, but it isn't, so the stock kernel will 100% work with ViperS. Thirdly, the kernel requires no modifications to run Sense 4.X; since I'm a kernel developer, I've looked at the sources of kernels like Bricked and PYD-X, and none of them have any modifications whatsoever specifically for Sense 4.X. Finally, Sebastian's kernel is based off of the stock kernel, and it works with all Sense ROMs, be it Sense 4.X or Sense 3.X, and Sebastian made no special modifications at all to achieve this.

That being said, go ahead and flash the stock kernel :)
[HTC Sensation] hunt:
Will WiFi/Bluetooth works in ViperS with Stock Kernel ?

Not a single developer has suggested or mentioned Stock Kernel in Sense 4.x based ROMs..at least I haven't seen any Sense 4.x ROM with Stock Kernel..!!!

No doubt ARHD and Sense 3.x base ROM uses Stock Kernel..!! But I'm preety much sure that in Sense 4.x based ROM, WiFi/BT or something will definitely get broke... :finger-crossed:

Sent from hunt's Sensation
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
Nope, WiFi and Bluetooth will work. Salwansk, I have attached a flashable .zip of the stock HTC kernel at the bottom of this post. I got the kernel files from the HTC stock ROM .zip in the S-OFF guide located in the General section.

I don't know but why nobody using stock Kernel with Sense 4 based ROM ?

This is just a thought of my mind...!!!

Why so ? :confused:

Sent from hunt's Sensation
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
It's just a coincidence. Not many people like the stock kernel.
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
one reason can be camera's flash

what i mean

me personally i think it is annoying not able to use the flash when battery drops down to 30%

but with custom kernel(sebastianFM in my case) i can use the flash even when the battery percentage drops down until 10%

it could be a reason
[HTC Sensation] rhishavphukan:
Just flashed the HTC stock kernel posted above with Viper S 1.6.3. Its stuck on the htc sensation boot screen.
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
ಠ_ಠ :eek:

Maybe I packaged the .zip file incorrectly... Nope, I packaged it correctly.

Or it could be the same bootloop problem that PYD-X has. Extract the HTC-stock-kernel zip and flash the boot.img using fastboot.

It might have something to do with the ramdisk and not the kernel itself.

EDIT: I'll just remove the .zip I posted because it's not gonna work. I'll extract it from HyperNonSense this time instead of the stock system.

EDIT2: This is the stock kernel from HyperNonSense. HyperNonSense uses the stock HTC kernel but the dev probably modified the ramdisk to make it work. If this zip doesn't work then flash a boot.img from the ROM you're using by using fastboot, reboot, then flash this again.
[HTC Sensation] hunt:
This is what I was expected :)

And after all, I was right.. Pure Stock kernel doesn't work with Sense 4.x :)
[HTC Sensation] Sultanxda:
No, Sense 4.X has absolutely nothing to do with it. It probably has something to do with the ramdisk. I'd be amazed if it actually had anything to do with Sense 4.X because Sebastian made no special changes to accommodate Sense 4.X (look at his commit history here: https://github.com/SebastianFM/HTC-Sensation-overclocked-kernel/commits/master)

UPDATE: HTC's stock kernel just doesn't want to boot up -_- OP, at this point you should just use SebastianFM's kernel because it's the closest thing to the stock HTC kernel. It might not be booting up because of Sense 4.X or some other reason; who knows. At this point it's just a waste of time to try flashing the stock HTC kernel on a Sense 4.X ROM. and it's a waste of time trying to make it work with a Sense 4.X ROM.
