Hello everyone!
I have a simple question that I would like to have answered. I'm adept at running custom ROMS on my GTAB, but I've never really messed with kernel stuff before.
There isn't exactly a 'topic' that deals with this, and pershoots website doesn't have that much detail either.
So I would like to know what kernel would be the best for me to run.
I've got VEGAn-Tab GingerEdition running and I just installed pershoots 2.6.32.39-cyanogenmod and it should be the ginger edition
Is this the right kernel or should I be running another?
Thanks
There are basically two kernels that are being actively supported on XDA, pershoot's and clemsyn's (clemsyn has several kernels out, but they're all just slight variations on the same kernel). If you want to overclock above 1.4GHz and/or adjust the voltage settings, then you should try clemsyn's. If not, then stick with pershoot's. It's what I use. It's what most of the devs on here include with their ROMs. For me, it seems to run better with less work. But try them both out for yourself and see what you like better. That's the only way you can really know if you're running the "right" kernel.
Also, pershoot just updated his kernel to 3.6.32.40, if you want the latest version.
Froyo use clemsyn. Gb use pershoot. Jmho...
Hey Thanks! This stuff gets quite confusing.
Another question here. I have installed Roms but how do we install a Kernel? Do we install prior to the Rom?
Thanks in advance
I've tested out every version.
1- froyo -->clemsy
2- ginger --> pershoot
3- flash kernel as you would with any other zip file. Do not use calk wipe all zip.
Hey
So I flashed Overcome 10.1 Series v1.0.0 yesterday because it got nice feedback.
After that I installed Pershoot's kernel and I added the media watcher script and the v6 supercharger.
I expect that Overcome 10.1 Series will make a new release available in the coming days.
Now if I were to flash that release will it overwrite the kernel and will it kill the media watcher script?
cheers
It will. The boot-image will be overwritten so you will loose the kernel, mediawatcher etc.
I am currently running Resurrection Remix ics v1.7 with thoravukk kernal 2.48. I am looking to update to Resurrection Remix ics v1.8.1. I also want to flash the latest thoravukk kernal and the tablet mod as well. After i install v1.8.1 should i install the kernal first then mod or the other way around. I also have my phone undervolted so do i need to set the voltage back to the orginal settings as well?
normally Kernel can be flashed either before or after flashing the MOD, no difference.
still better to ask the dev of the MOD, whether the MOD required a specific Kernel first or not?.
Your undervolt setting will be automaticaly reset when you flash the Kernel, no problem you can set it again after flashing the Kernel.
Hi,
Kinda new to all this so bear with me, I installed the custom ROM ViperX+ 1.0.3, which is working without any problems. I've currently got the stock kernel flashed and was thinking of changing it but theres two that I can choose from nik3r's Elite kernel or the repacked version. however I was wondering does the repacked version get updated as soon as nik3r's is becasue is updated often.
Thanks
My favorite custom kernel is the EliteKernel by nik3r.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012320
It runs smooth, stable and I never got any kind of error.
I use repacked version and very smooth and stable, don't worry, elite kernel is very stable and I dont think there will be an update shortly.
I have an Archos G9 101 turbo 512 Mb RAM, and I want to install a firmware lighter than [ROM] Root & Deodex - Archos Firmware 4.0.28 !. Many people said, the best firmware was 4.0.7.
Which is better and lighter:
-[ROM] Custom Rom - Archos ICS Firmware 4.0.7 - Root , Deodex & Busybox ! or
-[ROM] Update 19/07/12 Custom Rom [email protected] V03 - only for enabled SDE !?
Please respond
Nobody can help me?

They are both based on stock roms, so they are about the same. My recommendation is [ROM] UPDATE 15/10/12 | Android 4.0.4 | Custom Rom | Clean_Slim&Fast V.0.1, as it has been trimmed down from extra stuff. but from those 2, I think the modded stock is lighter, but [email protected] might be faster, as it has some tweaks that stock does not have.

Maybe I formulated the question wrong.
What is the most stable ROM? What has less bugs?

Stock roms and roms based on them are all very stable and mostly bugfree. I would recommend a 4.0.28 based rom, but I have read that devices with 512mb ram run slowly 4.0.28 roms.
Try [ROM] Custom Rom - Archos ICS Firmware 4.0.7 - Root , Deodex & Busybox first. It has no tweaks, so it should have less bugs.

My last question, I hope.:fingers-crossed:
I read that the ROM's based on 4.0.2x Archos firmware slows down the tablet by indexing files, is it true?
In that case, is it better to use ROM's based on the Archos firmware 4.0.x?
Then the more stable the 4.0.7, does it?
Is it possible to downgrade from 4.0.28 to 4.0.7? How?

Yes, some people have problems with the indexing. Personally, I haven't had problems with the indexing.
Some people also report more touchscreen issues with 4.0.2x roms.
For you, I recommend using 4.0.7 roms. They seem to be more stable for most people.
As far as I know, you can't downgrade the official firmware. However, SDE roms are totally different! If you install 4.0.28 SDE rom, you can downgrade to 4.0.7 by just installing 4.0.7 rom.
With SDE rom I am talking about the custom roms. Just to make sure you know: Stock rom can not be modifies, but SDE roms can. SDE rom is the file you download from custom firmware topic. Stock roms can only be downloaded from archos' site.
So, Stock roms -> Downgrading IS NOT possible. SDE rom/file -> Downgrading IS possible.
If you knew this already, sorry. I'm just trying to make sure you fully understand this.
