Therez no need to..just keep a copy of zip file in your SD..kernel involves no data saving so no need to backup..

Just ask if someone can upload a flashable stock kernel for you.
There is always someone willing to help
After that you can flash back.
Thank you for help
Please someone upload the stock kernel for 2.3.3 v20 stock rom.

Hi,
I am from India, and using official stock rom v20c 2.3.3. I want to overclock my phone for playing lag free games. Can anyone suggest me how can I do.. what kernel i have to use so that I would not like to face battery drain, overheat, Problem with 3g or wifi, hotspot, tethering issues.
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THAT before flashing custom kernel please tell me how to backup my official kernel.... so that if in case i will go back to the stock one.
Please share the link of custom kernel.
Is there any need to backup phone data such as apps, contacts ,messages, etc.?
one thing I also want to know that what kernel do.. what is its main role..?
Thanks in advance..

IMHO most stable kernel is paolo v5/v6, it overclocks quite good (with external app - e.g. No-frills), no problem with tethering (wifi or usb) or 3g. I think v5 has a little longer battery life.
To backup stock kernel you need to make nandroid backup (that creates backup of everything on your phone and in case of restoring, it will overwrite every change you made on phone since backup). To do that you need recovery (I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery, but there is also other recovery somewhere in our P500 thread).
Recovery is also needed to install new kernel. There is short guide how to do that in kernel thread (you need to install downloaded zip). New kernel doesn't wipe your msgs, contacts or apps if you made no mistakes.
Custom kernels do few things: fixes bugs made by lg, boost phone performance (different kernels give more or less boost), unlocks overclocking, changing governors (controls CPU clock transitions, and therefore battery life and smoothness) and scheduler (i have too little knowledge about android to say, what it should do, but i observed no difference between schedulers), gives you better battery life, fix touch lag (but not multitouch inversion lag bug).
You should try Paolo's and Franco's kernels and choose which one fits you better. Franco's need app to use wifi tethering but is faster than Paolo's.
I experienced more restarts on paolo's v6 and franco's than on v5 (my favourite so far, but there is also new paolo's based kernel that I haven't tested yet).
To install recovery (and kernel) you need root.
All needed instructions and links are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901247
AND MOST IMPORTANT THING - ALWAYS DO WHAT INSTRUCTIONS SAY AND DO NOT INSTALL KERNEL THAT IS NOT INTENDED FOR YOUR ROM, SO READ AND INSTALL CAREFULLY.

Hey Indian user, don't be afraid of flashing Kernel, you can always change it.. and I went twice to service centre with CWM 5.2.0... OC-480-729... franco's .35 kernel ... and they didn't came to know anything... but if you give them a phone with custom ROM then the'll reject it..
Abhinav i m a newbie to android.. actually i m an IT person.. n understands what u r saying but i m feeling afraid of doing any thing wrong bcoz i have already bricked my phn earlier while flashing gb through kdz.. so its very important for me to under the process first...
As per ur suggestion.. plz correct me or help me if i m wrong:
Firstly i have to download adb n install over my xp based pc..
Secondly in adb i have to run adb push command for sending the database file to the phn...
STOP..... WHAT file IS THAT DB IS...? N from where i get this.. i mean where did i get this stock recovery,? in which format is the recovry is?
And how the process will be run .. n how the clockwork recovery is replaced with stock one.. i have tried the combination of three buttons at startup in stock rom but no menu opens instead the phn will forcefully reset. so where is the official recovery?.
Help me plz expain how to do n for what to do in each n every step...
Is it true that after installing cw recovry n custom kernel we cant do a kdz stock flash..... Confirm me that after having custom kernel.. it should not lead the phone in non detecting position.. n if kdz works n can remove both kernel n cw recovery too then i think this is much easier ... i had seen a lot of post that o1 bricked by kdz flashing gb.... so if it possible then i have decided to flash froyo first n then update the phone via pc suite.... help me.... plzzz
Sent from my [email protected] OpTiMu$ On€ [email protected]
yes if u flashed a cutom kernel a custom recovery or a custom rom you can use kdz just turn on the usb debugging mode in setting>application>development to flash official stock froyo or official gb.. by using kdz method everything will be reverted back to stock recovery, kernel, rom, everything.. i suggest you to firstly flash the stock froyo using kdz method so you will be psychologically satisfied that you can go to stock

No need to wipe anything.
Backups are always handy. But be aware that backup done by amonra or cwm are not compatible to each other. That means backup taken by any recovery will only be restored with same recovery.

That zip file is for amonra recovery which doesn't have an option for formatting system. In cwm recovery, you have the format system option.
Flashing doesn't lead to bricking normally.
And all custom roms are always rooted.

no. I just flashed. you can wipe cache+dalvik if you want. check for two files mentioned in franco's thread. if you have them, You HAVE to delete them before flashing. if you dont, just flash. you need setCPU to change the CPU freq coz CM OC screen does not display at the moment. battery and smoothness is great.

I flashed Franco kernel too, half an hour before. But I didn't check for those two files. But the phone is functioning fine.
Are those two files to be deleted are meant for everyone or for those who have previously flashed Franco kernel?

Hello all,
Today I've flashed a custom ROM for the first time on my P500. Everything was smooth and my phone is now running #Devoid Froyo Final. I've gotta say that I bought this phone already modded with Light 2.2.2 running, but I wanted to learn the process and test other ROMs myself (also I was not happy with Light 2.2.2 battery consumption).
I'm using CWM as my custom recovery (installed via ROM Manager).
Now I want to go ahead and upgrade the Kernel to the latest Franco's build, but I just want to make sure that I have the process right (better safe than sorry). According to Franco's Kernel post the instructions are as follows:
1. Reboot intro recovery
2. Flash the latest kernel version from this topic
3. Reboot
4. Flash the ZRAM module
5. Enjoy
Still I need some clarifications with some of those steps:
1.- Franco's Kernel has two versions on the post: "V.17 and V.17 BFS"... it says that BFS is the one for Noeijns ROMs, so I want to confirm that for #Devoid Froyo Final I need the "V.17 BFS" version
2.- Since the instructions says that I should flash the kernel and then reboot and then flash the ZRAM module, should I use the "Reboot Recovery" option on ClockWorkMod to reboot directly into recovery to flash the ZRAM, or should I boot normally into the Phone OS and then reboot into recovery??
3.- Should I run any of the Wipes before or after flashing the new Kernel? (Data, Cache, Dalnik or Battery Stats). On the gazillion posts I've read I seem to recall that for Kernel installs the Battery Stats should be wiped, but I might be confused (I have posts overload LOL)
4.- Are there any other considerations that I should take before/after flashing the new Kernel?
Thanks in advance.
In general flashing kernels there is no need to wipe, but just be sure do a backup.

Something like:

BFS for: 2.3.X based ROMs

I couldnt find relevant answers bt searching so i am creating a new thread.
I just now installed open optimus rom for 2.3.3(build 2.202.1)
2.6.35.14-franco kernel
i followed this thread
now i am facing some problems
when usb debugging is on, and i plug in usb, it tickers usb debugging connected and then phone freezes, and reboots and keeps on rebooting itself. windows keeps on finding and losing the phone. so i cannot connect in debugging mode. However when i disable debugging and enable mass storage only i can access the mass storage mode
also phone freezes up when i run certain apps(like proxydroid)
and refreshes(ie does not reboots but does some kind of reset of launcher etc which is fast)
secondly
the theme is very dark, i want a more light theme.
edit: i liked the gingerbread theme, this one is bluish, i want black like gingerbread. plz tell how to do i change to gingerbread theme
this is first time i am installling custom rom, (i had upgraded my phone to 2.3.3 manually some days back though)
What should i do to get debugging mode
plz some1 reply to this thread
yes even me faced some problems with open optimus (gingerbread), it has some bugs.
I suggest change your rom ?
ya, i did that, went back to my backuped 2.3.3 stock rom.
i guess i have to say, all custom roms have some bugs, so u cant use them if u want just stable and reliable use of ur phone.
if anyone can suggest a custom rom with no freezes, crashes, and most functionality working, ill be very happy to switch
and i would like to say that i upgraded to 2.3.3 from froyo using info from mak.3736 signature. so thanks to u

This isnt true.I think the most stable custom roms arexygen rom,aosp rom,mik's cm7(both stable & testing) and Andy's rom(but it has video bug,but i cn live without it).And almost all froyo roms are stable.
can u plz tell which rom, kernel u using, is it bug free? and i want gingerbread roms only.. coz stock gingerbread looks way more cool than stock froyo and since i have baseband v20 i dont want to change it.

ok ill trying it again, this time i wiped dalvik cache too.

and how to theme this rom? i want it to closely resemble gingerbread rom in terms of colors
i am still facing crashes or freezeups afterwhich phone kinda reboots. i guess ill stick to stock rom.
if you want to switch to gingerbread cutom roms
first downgrade baseband to v10 follow : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1217504
then you can flash mik's rom or andy's rom or aosp or oxygen , all are good, but as you are new you might like mik's rom 6.5.8 , as according to my view its more stable and most of the functionality working.
ok ill try mik rom sometime(its the one by mik_os cm7 rit 6.5.8-beta1)?
also tell me how can i add powermenu, remove some stock crapware apps and other goodies to a stock rom 2.3.3 , kinda what cyber_avjit did. his rom cannot be downloaded, none of download link is working
i know there is a 'kitchen' but i am a not a pro cook.
so i need some cooking tips too.
thanks for ur patience to bear with me
for building power menu there is a thread in xda (search it)
for removing stock apps from rom you can use titanium back up, but remember there are some apps that should not be removed (if removed causes force close or boot loops), there is a thread in xda (search) which tells which app from stock rom can be removed safely.

hi
i myself googled it (kernel) that is and what i found was something like this
the kernel itself is what controls all the processes, inputs (hardware and software inputs), controles the fysic and virtual memory etc etc.
and the rom itself (this is with out goggling could be wrong) is the software like compared to your pc it would be windows, linux, etc
hope ths helped had to translate so hope you understand!
Thanx ! ! But I still don't understand .... I mean can v be on the stock rom n hav a different kernel? Or can v hav a different rom on the stock kernel?
Sent from my X10i using xda premium
im pretty new to this myself and i've noticed there's so many different choices of roms and kernels out there so what i can tell you are the things i read and and have done/noticed so far.
first of yes i believe you can stay on stock and use another kernel (i actually went with CM7 Zmod first then changed kernels)
second ive seen most roms giving a link to a custom kernel aswell
custom kernel pros are somewhat explained in the following:
* i remember reading that the stock kernel kept on going even while its not needed
*so i installed the doomkernel V6 (CAUTION theres a difference between kernels for locked/unlocked bootloaders)
wich allowed me to set the cpu as i pleased (by another application wich i saw people using in videos etc. ''no frills CPU control'')
i did this before unlocking the bootloader and i noticed the difference in battery consumption aswell
theres so many different options in how to set the kernel that youre better of wiki'ing em . thats what i did and helped alot in understanding what it does.
sorry for all the info you didnt ask for but it might be usefull for later on ??
Yea definitely damn useful!!!!! So frm ur point, should I.change my kernel? Cuz I don't want to flash custom rom. Camera doesn't.work.best. and games don't seem to work properly on.this present stock.kernel of Sony ( srsly PES worked better on 2.1 !)

v06-1113 [medium OVERCLOCK VERSION] ( min/max: 128Mhz/1113Mhz )
so its all out there but im pretty carefull on reading up first and then trying
ive pretty much got it all working on the first try
* CM7 Zmod
* unlocking the bootloader (meaning instead of loading stock kernel first, cancelling this, rebooting custom kernel it just goes straight to the last step (faster!))
*doomkernels V6 unlocked bootloader kernel
So I should unlock my bootloader n then change my kernel to.which ever u r on ( while being on stock 2.3.3 rom) n then overclock it ...logically n technically is what I'm saying is right?

while i was looking for this i also found that he submitted kernels for stock roms wich i didnt use so im not sure why tbh :s
i believe that the CM7 Zmod isnt an actual ''rom'' aswell but a port (whatever that means )
so that means im using the stock rom with this ''mod'' and the V6 kernel non stock rom and evrythings bin working fine for about 2 weeks now
rom = like windows xp software
kernell = using software to mod the motherboard so its compatible with the rom
So can I stay on stock rom n change my kernel?

whatever you use should be you're choice i suppose but what i did was .
get the kernel for the LOCKED bootloader first theres plenty of em out there.
dont forget the app youl need to control the cpu itself
ive seen posts of people refusing to unlock there bootloader mainly because you can mess up and brick (destroy) your phone
so whatever you do . dont unlock it untill some more exp. people explain what its all about.
im not sure so dont believe me on the following.
i believe it was something about unlocking it and doing a full wipe or such means youl do A FULL WIPE bye bye xrecovery and an endless bootloop
because xrecovery isnt or wasnt (fixed or not) build in the custom kernel
so untill then be safe theres plenty of roms/kernels etc to try with a locked bootloader so you'll wait 15 sec longer for the extra booting thats required
only reason i did it was to go straight to the custom kernel and to multi boot roms meaning i can try out other roms and still keep the one most stable for daily use.
What is perhaps the most prominent use for unlocking the booloader is that u can have your recovery built-in at kernel level (as is the case for pretty much every ulbl kernel), meaning u will always have recovery on ur phone

That's it? For just having recovery u need to unlock bootloader?

no no hes saying ''at kernel lvl'' you even got recovery with your locked bootloader if im not mistaken ? (think you told me in some post)
so if i understand it it means even if doing full wipes etc youl always have xrecovery cause its build in on kernel lvl (so build in your custom kernel)
No I mean that if u flash to stock or anything usually u would break recovery but with ulbl it ALWAYS there. There are other reasons too (like extra schedulers and governor's for CPU)

Do any of u know how to increase 3g performance?
Sent from my X10i using xda premium
mean speed wise or signal strength ?

anyways this is what i found speed wise read it carefully seems you have to manually change some lines according to you're provider etc.

good luck!
Hey, I'm interested in this so I'm gonna jump in on the conversation.
I've read that with an unlocked bootloader, the recovery is built in at the kernel level, and from my limited knowledge I thought the kernel resides in the boot partition. Why wouldn't the recovery be in the recovery partition? Is their a recovery partition?
When I did a nandroid backup, I notice that it only backed up the sys, data and dalvik. Maybe theres no boot or recovery partition.... I'll eventually learn all the answers I need, I figured this was a good thread to ask some of these questions.
I really hav no idea ....I myself am.trying to pick points from here
