So, I just got this phone ~1 week ago. Does flashing a rom change the Kernel? Or is that what the PH98IMG.zip is for? I'm currently running Bamf ICS with the OC kernel. Will flashing CleanROM pro change the Kernel?
Yep...its the kernel...
if you decline to update it when flashing to a new Rom, I would assume it would be whatever the last kernel you would have flashed/allowed.
Now if they all play nice with the different Roms that'll be trial and error...they should but you never know...
all I know is gb kernel for gb Rom and ics kernel for ics Rom unless you like reboots lol
If you were

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".
I successfully rooted my 1.5 hboot with HTC's official method. All my root apps work fine and I installed steel rom 2.01. My kernel version is
2.6.35.13-g84f8edd
I originally tried to flash synergy rom, this caused my phone to randomly (and frequently) reboot. I flashed steel rom and my phone is stable now. I downloaded the showdown kernel 2 from here at xda and flashed it by itself. I don't believe my kernel version changed; I would think it would say showdown something. My setcpu does not have any overclock capabilities right now.
Is this because I don't have s-off? If so, is there a way possible now to flash kernels on evo 3ds with the hboot v1.5?
Also if anyone has any tips on getting synergy to work I'd appreciate it.
Which synergy are you flashing? If you took the update and are on 2.3.4 you can't flash a 2.3.3 ROM. sounds like you are flashing an older synergy.
Edit: also there are no kernels for 2.3.4 out yet except the stock because HTC hasn't released the source code

The file I downloaded was synergy-evo3d-unofficial-345.zip. It took me a while and some confusion to find it. I think the thread said the kernel was included in the rom. But I think it also said 2.3.4. I would rather be on 2.3.3 with a custom kernel.
I just flashed synergy revision 318 and it didn't flash the ziggy kernel. I cleared data before flashing. I see my vrsion of androi is 2.3.3, and I tried flashing the showdown Kellernel 2. Any ideas? It still says I have the stock htc kernel.
You can't flash a kernel if you rooted using HTC's unlocker method.

HTC's unlock method doesn't let you flash kernels ( not to my knowledge but I could be wrong ) I've read several threads about people trying to flash kernels and it looking like it flashed, but didn't actually flash. BUT, your on 2.3.4, so you can't flash a 2.3.3 kernel. You gotta flash a 2.3.4 kernel. And the only losses kernel we have is freeza's kernel.
From what I understand, HTC's unlock method only allows write access to the system partition.

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.
hi. i just want to ask these 2 questions.
question 1:
can i flash over a new rom over my bionix 1.3.1 running bali kernel 1.8.8? i would like to try an ics rom if it will do me good.
question 2:
if i switched to another rom, what will happen to my kernel? will there be incompatibility issues? however im planning to change the kernel if ever. can it also just be flashed over bali 1.8.8?
thanks.
Yes can flash on top might have to flash twice. Wipe is recommended.
Roms usually include kernel so don't have to worry about kernel. Btw 2.2 kernels like bali 1.8 would be in incompatible with 2.3 ics and aosp kernels

Just want to add: Make sure to read the install instructions before you flash and it's a good idea to read the entire thread so you know what issues you might have. You should also know how to recover your phone should something go wrong.
In addtion, make a nandroid back up before you do anything, just in case you bork something and have to go back.
So Im trying to OC my Evo to play n64oid(yessss)
and Im flashing the Silverneedle kernel using Kernel Manager Lite and it hangs on the Flashing Kernel screen.The wheel just keeps turning,am I doing something wrong?I've waited over 5 minutes and it still hasn't completed,am I just impatient or what?lolI've backed up the stock ROM,do I need to change my ROM?
Please help I really need to get N64oid working as thats one of the bigger reasons why Im keeping this phone,the 1.2ghz CPU is just too tempting to not OC and N64oid lags currently,but some people have it playing perfectly on there Evo3d's?I did a kill on all unnecessary apps and it still lags,idk but I need my n64 games
I don't think that kernel plays well on the latest 2.17 build.

Ah which one would you suggest then?
Keep in mind I must be able to OC
OK good news:I sucessfully flashed a Antrhrax Kernel
Bad news:Wont let me OC or install another one.
Kernel manager just keeps going back to the list of roms after I attempt it,what gives?

If you are wanting to run oc you will need to find a kernel that is built to run on the current software your phone is on.. Such are you 2.17 or 2.08? Are you rooted running a stock rom ?
