For my main device we are trying to make a ics port (my device is the yp-g1) but were struggling on the kernel and ive seen a lot of people talking about modifying a gb 2.6.x kernel to work like a 3.x kernel for ics does that mean modifying a gb kernel?
How would we do that? Can u point me to a guide for this

You should ask a kernel specialist for help.

No duh? From his post I'd say that's what he is trying to do.
@OP If you really wanted to take on a project you could look at patching your 2.6.x kernel to a 3.0 version. I don't think you are going to find a 10 step guide to porting the kernel if that's what you are looking for though.

Okay
I guess that that means taking a gb kernel and changing it but what would be needed to patch any ideas?
I asked a guy a while back and he said something about adding last-ksmeg, dsmg and ksmeg or something like that to an existing 2.6x kernel I asked him how I'd do that but got no reply.

Hi everyone I am new to this all just wanting to know can you run a custom kernel on a stock tomorrow.
If so what are the advantages etc also which would you recommend .
I have rooted phone and installed recovery I am currently running stock ics 4.03.
Any help would be great thanks

Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Read the first page of the thread for the kernel you want to try. That will tell you which roms it's compatible with.
No suggestions. Reasons being you use your phone differently to everyone else, have it set up differently & no two phones come out of the factory the same. So you won't have exactly the same experience as me with a given rom or kernel. Also, many people who are users of a particular rom or kernel end up being total fanboys, rendering their opinion on same biased/meaningless.
So...Try out a bunch of roms/kernels until you find one you like. With CWM, it's so easy to backup/restore & flash roms/kernels there's no excuse for you not trying a bunch out for yourself.
Thanks man

Anyone der to help me... I wanna flash my rom but am away from a pc... So cant flash kernel
Sent from my WT19i using xda app-developers app
I think it's better if you find a pc to use to flash it, 'cause you can't do it from it from the device itself if you don't know or don't have the recovery installed...
you can use but with minor edits to source
I have the recovero.... It seems información will need to flash the kernel from pc..... Cause when i flashed Cm 9 without the kernel that came in it my phone got stuck in boot Screen....... Luckily i had a nandroid backup

i cant excatly guarantee for it to work because we need minor changes in source to fit in the different api so ... this just might be your case why not ask someone to upload the kernel for you
I guess the only way to flash it by using the kernel i got in the rom..... Btw thanx for the reply apprentiate it

You definitely can't use the CM7.2 kernel for CM9.1. There are a lot of differences between the two since one is GB based and the other is ICS based.
boot.img
please can anyone tell me in detail , what is boot.img for??????
Boot.img contains all the files required for the device to boot such as kernel and ramdisk. Without it, the device can't start. Boot.img when flashed, will copy all files to the /boot partition.

but many phones use 2.6 kernel for both ics and gb so just the defconfig differs ...

That's partially true. For example, ICS ROMs for my HTC Desire HD used the 2.6 GB kernel as there was no official ICS kernel update from HTC. But the 2.6 ICS kernels required a lot of hacks, forward ports from various ICS kernel branches and backports from GB to work with ICS. For lack of a newer kernel version, the 2.6 kernel was used, but it was very different from the 2.6 GB kernel. It took months of hacks and hard work for devs to get everything working on the ICS ROMs with the 2.6 kernel. After Jelly Bean was released, it would have taken a ton of work to get the 2.6 kernel to work with it and not everything would have worked properly. Fortunately, Team Virtuous made a custom 3.0.xx kernel for the Desire HD all on their own, effectively making any kernel update from HTC's side useless, even if they did choose to release it. Another dev took this kernel and improved upon it like hell, and now we have perfectly working 4.2.1 Jelly Bean.
Of course, I might not be fully right about this because I'm no developer, but I've been following the ICS and JB threads for my phone for a long time and this is the way development was for it.
Im using the Siyah-I777-v7.6.4-S kernal and did the norm whipe and all the cachs and such downloaded the rom 3-4 times on pc on phone directly and still get the error no matter what any help would be great thanks if you can tell me what kernel you are useing with this rom and were to get it thanks.
you have posted in the wrong section for one. to get rid of that error you need to odin back to stock and then root it and have cwm. then flash again. no other way of doing it. you could have asked in the jellybam thread. it has already been stated how to do it.

It's an error with the build prop. When I went from JellyBam to Avatar ROM I had the same issue. I fixed the build prop, and deleted the assert in the updater script

so i can using the same kernel i installed get hte shosock rom to work but i can not get this one to work i even reinstalled the task650 aokp rom and then did the whip and all that and still can not this rom to install my problem and the reason im going from the task 650 rom to a different one is battery life with the task650 my battery would drop like a percent a min and was killing me i want to have a JB 4.2.1 rom would like the multi window option like shoshock rom but i love the aokp stuff so any other rom options with kernals would be wonderful or mods but currently im got the sohshock rom on it 4.2.1 NS WILL GIVE IT A TRY FOR A WILE AND SEE HOW THAT WORKS i dont think im going to stay with it thow cus there not that much to change to customize .
This does not belong in the development section. Continue the conversation through PM and ask a dev to move it to q&a.

That is not correct. It is made for CM based ROMs and made to work on Samsung JB ROMs as a plus.
And this is in the wrong section.....please move this to the Q&A section.

Ok, but there is no universal stock kernel. A stock kernel on a Samsung device would be the kernel that ships with the Touchwiz ROM, or the stock kernel on an HTC device would be the kernel that ships with the Sense ROM. Basically what I'm saying is the stock kernel is specific to the device you're building for. I don't have your answer, I'm just trying to clear it up for the people that come into this thread that do have the answer.

I updated Micromax Funbook Infinity P275 with CynogenMod 10 by reading instructions at the below link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46067975&postcount=2
Everything went fine except 3 things.
1. I am not able to see the Volume Up and Down Icon as it was there in my stock rom. Where do I find this.
2. I am not able to browse to my internal card. In stock ROM i use to copy files frequently to and from phone memory and external memory. I can see it though in device information.
3. When will camera fix be out?
Even I had NoVoTools installed which vanished after firmware update
Please help
Thanks
