[Q] How to revert to stock kernel w/o wiping? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to install Bionix 1.7 w/ JACs OC kernel. I have flashed his kernel before, but i want to know, can I flash the stock kernel and just lose my OC? In case I have to go back to stock Bionix.
So, can I expect to flash the stock kernel on top of Bionix 1.7 to get rid of JACs kernel?

I don't think this will work, I'm not 100% but since his 1.7 build is based off of the JI6, I believe the kernel is different and this might mess some stuff up for you. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong

If I decide to go back to stock, I'll have have to use odin? When I was using 1.4 w/ OC, I flashed stock kernel via clockwork. then I soft bricked :O

flashin custom rom with stock kernel

does anyone here uses a custom rom with a stock kernel? will it still be good? i really do want to flash but i don't want things to get complicated. i just want to speed up the phone.
and with stock kernel everything is simple right? just flash the rom and use it, no other things needed.
I am one of the unlucky people that have a vibrant that cant handle an OC/UV kernel. So yes, every time I flash a custom rom, I flash a stock kernel. Generally speaking most roms I use ( bionix and master ) barely increase the benchmark scores of stock tw... though they do feel snappier because these rom chefs spend alot of time in polishing the user interface... if you want to make your device faster, try rooting it and installing a lag fix. If you have any other questions be sure to click the red text in my Sig.
You do not need a lag fix... too many issues stem from this.

i already flashed a fusion 1.1 stock kernel. i'm satisfied already.
Awesome, just making sure. I didn't agree with the lf suggestion.
If you've flashed Bionix Fusion 1.1 with JACS OC/UV ROM from stock, do you need to flash another kernel or does the ROM include the JACs kernel? Without SetCPU do you then run stock benchmarks?
3rd Q, are there issues flashing back to a custom ROM but with the standard kernel?

to your 3rd question, if you have a custom rom with a stock kernel you can flash back to stock rom without problems using odin.
Thanks. Plus found discussion of kernels under Vibrant Q&A under "Bionix fusion 1.1".

[Q] ota froyo themes

do i have te run a custom rom to install themes?
i have ota ka6 froyo, with voodoo/rooted kernel
pretty much ..yes.. I think a deodex'd version of stock 2.2 allows you to theme. There is a deodex'd version of KA6 in the DEV section if you don't want custom.
do i have to flash a whole rom, or just the kernel?
the whole rom .....disable voodoo first and let it convert & reboot completely
so if i wanna run bionix-v i can just flash without disabling voodoo, since its already voodoo enabled? also would my flashed kernel cause any problems? or will the rom flash ka7 kernel?
It will flash the ka7 voodoo kernel

[Q] what is ULF kernel?

I was wondering that what is ULF kernel? I am using Bionix 1.3.1 with Overstock 1.5 now, I want to flash Trigger Rom then flash the Overstock 2.1 kernel. Is that will work?
I saw that in Overstock 2.1 page," Flash through RED RECOVERY only to install. If you're on a ULF kernel, flash back to a stock+Voodoo kernel first" . What is ULF kernel? Is there any different Kernels, what r the difference?

ULF stands for universal lag fix. It's a type of kernel that can use a variety of different file systems. I don't think anyone is using it anymore because it wasn't very stable. If you are going from one version of Overstock to another you should be fine.
The last kernel it was most commonly used in was Eugene's deadhorse

It was a good idea it just never seemed to work properly. The old ULF kernels would eat my battery in like 8 hours.

If you want the stock CM7 kernel then just reflash the Ba2tF zip. I'm sure there's a way to extract it, but if you're not sure about undervolting I doubt that's something you want to try.
Faux used to have a 'stock' CM7 kernel for download, but I'm assuming with 3 different betas (and nightlies and weeklies) he removed the link to avoid people downloading something that wouldn't match the CM7 beta version they were on.
