Custom kernel included in rom?

Custom kernel included in rom? - HTC EVO 3D

I want to include a custom kernel in my next rom update, not to sure the best way to go about it? My roms currently just have stock kernel, I've found a great custom kernel I would like to include, I did Google didn't find too much help.

You can use dsixda's amazing android kitchen to bake it in. What you need to do is take your ROM and set up the kitchen with it. Once that is done you go into the advanced option of the kitchen and select unpack boot. Then in the boot-extracted folder you replace the zImage with the zImage of your new kernel you want. Once copied you repack the boot.img and then copy the modules from the new kernel into the ROM.

Great answer, Thanks buddy!!

If you're interested in learning how to integrate the kernel yourself instead of using a kitchen, the process is fairly simple.
There are two main areas you'll need to add into the ROM
1) The actual kernel, generally a boot.img file.
2) The associated kernel modules, usually stored in /system/lib/modules.
The best way to add in these two sets of files.
1) The kernel boot.img can be added into the root of the update.zip file. The associated code needs to be added to the updater-script file which will essentially write the boot.img into the boot partition memory. Great example can be found in my ROM . The updater-script code should be the same for CDMA and GSM, as the function is fairly generic.
2) Associated kernel modules can be easily copied into the system/lib/modules directory of the update.zip file and will be copied over along with the rest of the ROM by the current package extract command in the updater-script.
Hope that helps add some technical detail and best of luck!

[Q] How to port a rom?

Could anyone teach me how to port a rom, or could someone do it for me, I am trying to port Tweaky Rom from Galaxy S I9000 2.3.3?
Thanks

The question is like asking "how do you write music" A bit complex....
You can use some of the apps and tool out there to help you extract the rom and or other information you want, kitchen and rom oven are a couple that come to mind.
You need some understanding of Linux and ADB
Here is a basic explanation of sorts but this not complete:
Take a base ROM from another phone. First thing, delete the boot.img. That boot.img contains the kernel, which usually will not be compatible for your phone.
Next,
Add the boot.img from your phone to this rom (use commom sense, if you are porting a vanilla rom, use an AOSP kernel, if porting sense, use HTC kernels, if you are porting other UI’s like blur, use an AOSP kernel.)
Then>
Go into the /system folder. In here, we want to first delete the usr folder. The usr folder has hard button and keypad drivers. Replace the usr folder with the one from your phone.
Then>
Go into the etc folder. delete the vold.fstab andapns-conf.xml and replace with the one from your phone. Next, we want to go into the lib folder. Here, we will want to replace the lights.(device name here) (and the sensors.name if it is an AOSP port) and replace with files from your phone.
-There much more to it but this is a basic overview-
Every phone is slightly different I have never ported on a Vibrant but this was my memory of how I did it on my HTC.......... hope that clarifies for you......

If your porting w i9k rom, replace the kernel and modem with the ones from our phone. Since its gingerbread, you will need a special modified gb kernel. Simply honey 2.3.3 uses chainfires modded kernel. See if you could use it. Or register at the edt site. We have custom gb kernels on our site. Then you will have to modify the two files in system/usr/keylayout; malfes_touchkey.kl to get the home button to work, and aries-keypad.kl to fix the volume buttons. Next you need to decompile the android-policy.jar and edit the phone window manager to make the haptic feed back work on the home key. Hope this helps.

There you have it from the porting legend

Thanks, both your responses were really helpful, I really appreciate it.
One more question, would it be possible to use the custom gb kernels with jvh which is what I plan on porting?

That's what I'm using. All the vibrant gb kernels, with the exception of the cm7/miui kernels, will work with 2.3.3.

[Kernel] mKernel v1.3 - Stock with Dimmed LEDs + TUN2.3.4 ROMs

So after a couple of days of reading guides on the internets, I've been able to compile a mostly stock kernel that incorporates some of the changes made by joe85 in his NOLIGHTS Kernel. This kernel is stock other than the changes outlined below. The anykernel scripts keep your existing RAMDISK intact. If you had init.d support/other RAMDISK mod(s), it will still be present after flashing this kernel.
mKernel_v1.3
-Added TUN module for VPNC support
-Changed Display Maximum PWM from 232 -> 255
-Changed Display Minimum PWM from 8 -> 6
-Dimmed LEDs (from 20 mA -> 2 mA) or turned off completely
-Remove LED notification timer (does not shut off until dismissed)
------NotifyTimerOn versions use default timer to shut off notification LED

Adding overclocking has proven to be too much for me to do (more info on challenges of asynchronous dual core OC here. There isn't really much of an update going from 1.2 -> 1.3. I just re-did the changes from stock and tracked them using github. I did leave out the setting that joe85 made that allowed users to set a LED brightness via cmd line. There are 2 versions - mKernel_dim_1.3 for dim capacitive LEDs and mKernel_LEDoff_1.3 for capacitive LEDs which are always off.
You need a 2.3.4 based ROM for it to work and it can be flashed from recovery.
You can also flash it via joeykrim's Flash Image GUI with runs on your phone and is compatible with HBOOT 1.50. LINK!
Thanks to koush for the anykernel scripts and joe85 for all of his work (I just copied it into the new 2.3.4 kernel).
Everything works fine on my phone, but please post if you have any problems (not responsible, blah, blah, blah ).
github source with commits showing changes from stock kernel. There's not many and none should affect battery, performance, etc. compared to stock.

Nice will be checking this out for ya in a bit. Will report back

From my limited understanding android kernels and upgrading them, if the ROM you're using has it already removed, it will still be removed after flashing this kernel. CIQ removal is just done in the ramdisk. The compiled kernel makes a zImage and that, along with the modules for wimax & wifi, is all that is in the zip. The scripts in the zip extract your current boot.img, replaces the old zImage with the one in the zip, and re-makes boot.img (at least that's how I envision it working...could be wrong).

removing carrier IQ is big task and goes beyond the kernel, as you stated.
there was a guy over on SDX dev's that did it by removing the scripts from the framework.res apk. so basically the programs were still on the phone, but when you fired the phone up they didn't start.
that is the only way that i am aware of that it can be done. it's a lot deeper than the kernel and deleting apk files from the system.
EDIT** and when i say that is the only way i know of, that doesn't mean it is the only way.

Will this kernel work on Synergy 475 with EXT4 Opt.?

Ok there are 2 options...
1. Port ROM from another device
2. Extract kernel and modules from another ROM.
And now i have questions regarding these options.
a. 1st option requires me to have the ROM from the other device i want to port the ROM from? (in this case Htc flyer/Galaxy S)
b. option 2 would be for extracting kernel from my phone's ROM (in this case my I9001). Is this true?
c. Which format the ROM should be in the folder named "orignial_update". SHould it be in .zip format or what?
d. so how does it work, do i use 2nd option first to pull out kernel or is this extracting kernel off my rom?

If you are trying to port a ROM from another phone to yours you will use the 1st option. You will need a ROM meant for your device as well. When you select the first option, if will allow you to see the supported formats.

Since we're talking about porting ROMs here...
What packages/files need to be taken into consideration when trying to port a GSM ROM to CDMA (EVO 4G specifically)?
I've been building a ROM with Misfits Speedy port v1.0 as my base, but I think I'd like to port my own. I've been using dsixda's kitchen for a while, and have had mixed success in porting ROMs myself, but I really don't know what my options are as far as what other ROMs might be compatible or what other ROMs can actually be ported for CDMA use. There are a couple that I'd like to try, but the newest leaked versions of them are for GSM phones.

Thanks for your replies guys. I got further than I have before. I've got a GSM Ace ROM booted up on my EVO 4G! It's got a lot of issues, the biggest of which is that I have no service, but Sense is up and running and all apps that don't require data seem to be functioning correctly aside from some graphical issues. But like I said this is further than I've ever gotten before! It might take a while but I'm sure I'll get the bugs worked out. Thanks again for your responses and help guys! I really apprciate it.

Most of the time, changing the kernel just involves flashing the new one. As for compatible kernels, try www.google.com. I hear they have a ton of kernel choices.

you don't have to add any lines, figure out if your kernel has modules. ex /system/lib/modules
remove those modules and replace with the new kernel modules.
you will have to open the boot.img and replace the zimage or kernel image inside the boot.img. Pack it back up, then simply replace the boot image. Don't touch the updater-script just replace that boot.img (new) and the new modules. If you are still having troubles understanding. Google it. I have given you enough keywords to figure out how to break up a boot.img and replace.

That assumes it has a boot.img in the first place. Otherwise, you have to tell it to install right? I can't say that I have seen a ROM or device where the boot.img just installs by doing nothing but adding it to the rom.

I don't know anything about your phone, but your zip file is incorrect.
You want to put all the files except META_INF into a folder called system. Look in META_INF/com/google/android/updater-script and you will see this is what the recovery is expecting.
Also, add a boot.img since it will try to flash that as well.
This is what the root directory of the zip file should look like:
Code:

boot.img META-INF system

I read that thread a little- it looks like a lot of people trying different things. Also, use post numbers because it's page 17 on my computer
So, where did the updater-binary and script come from? The script has to match the rom, but I think the binary is a lot more forgiving. I think a binary from another ics or gb rom should work. Your phone uses yaffs, so maybe an older binary? I thought a lot of the ics devices were moving to ext3/4?
I think the stock recovery won't work. Usually, they will only accept zips that are signed by the manufacturer.

I cleaned up the system and added the boot.img. if you can get the /etc/recovery.fstab from your recovery, it might help since the partitions might have different names.

thank you
i try and i say if work

does not work I toujour error status 0

I think that is an error with the update binary. Maybe you can get one from a similar phone? It should be pretty generic, as long as it uses a similar file system/android version. So try to find a binary from an ics device that uses yaffs/MTD.

yes works but the boot.img is bad thank you

I thought this was the stock firmware? Could you just put in a similar ics kernel and see if that works? A kernel from an ics moto phone might work, but you'll have to change the ramdisk.

the concern is that the bootloader is locked
and I think he does not want ics files
you have ideas on how to bypass the UNLOCK or
thank you again

Do you have a copy of a working boot.img or kernel? Even a dump from a running phone would work.

my boot.img

So the zip that I uploaded flashes, but it doesn't boot?
I think your working boot image is GB or Froyo and the new one is ICS. So maybe if I take the kernel from the ICS boot.img and add the ramdisk from your working one, then maybe it might work.
Maybe...

This is the new kernel with the old ramdisk. Again, flash at your own risk.
