Why are we still using a 2.6 kernel? Isn't ICS supposed to be a 3.x kernel? What are the benefits that we are missing out on by not having a 3.x kernel? Is there any difference in performance or features? I have no idea about any of this. I am hoping that someone can shed a little light on the subject for me.

2.6.40 is 3.0
The prime is running 2.6.39 and 2.6.40 was the version that became Linux 3.0. We're just before 3.0. The big issue is that Android develops outside the Linux tree so they have to port Linux changes in to Android. That takes a while. The good news is that Android was merged in to the Linux source tree recently so they should track more closely in the future.

Flagship nexus/4.0.1 already ran 3.0.8, so that's Nvidia fault.
Edit: I stand corrected, thanks DiamondBack.

No it's nVidia's fault. The standard Tegra3 kernel is 2.6.39.
But anyway, we are not missing much at all.
As Gary posted Nvidia Google and Asus has a meeting this week. So at least there is hope they start pushing things forward soon It could very well be that the "gaming issues" discussed in another thread are related to the kernel as well^^ Not that i have an idea what exactly the kernel is doing but its the only explanation i could see with my limited knowledge
.21 is pretty great so far, but we're not quite there yet.
@OP ...good point.

So, what are the benefits and/or drawbacks of a 3.x kernel? Is there much difference?

Apache incorporated the 3.1 kernel in the TF201 CM9 nightlys about 2 weeks ago (sorry - I realize you probably know this ). A lot of people were complaining about it since they were having problems, and he reverted to 2.6. I was pretty impressed with 3.1 - my wifi would occasionally drop off but the power consumption was a load better than the 2.6 kernel.
If anyone is unlocked and interested in how 3.1 runs on TF201, search back through the CM9 thread in the Development section. I am pretty sure that the 05/10 nightly uses the 3.1 kernel...

Only the 3.2 and 3.3 kernels have made substantial ARM and Android related changes. 3.0 and 3.1 are effectively still 2.6.39 when it comes to features.

Gummy is sweet - I really liked it before I went back to my personal favorite - Eos Cornerstone nightlys. I used CM9 for several weeks but moved away from it when Gummy appeared. I will go back to it at some point - they're definitely pushing things in terms of development like using the 3.x kernel, getting the dongle working on a non-stock rom etc
Actually 3.x kernel has no essential features that must be implemented to Prime. I can count some I treat really useful: memory management changes, driver for Tegra AES hardware (will affect SSL and VPN performance, I think), maybe some changes in networking. Nothing we can't live without
Am I right?
Other Device with Android ICS and kernel 3+, work more smoother then with kernel 2,6.
And Google add Kernel 3 to Galaxy Nexus. If there is no more changes? why they do it?
But what about rumors. Asus Doing Kernel 3+ for Prime or We never get it?
Honestly I don't need more smoothness to my Prime and I even didn't overclock the processor yet.
Let Google experiment with Nexus, I need more stable software. There's enough bugs in the Prime, I don't need any more. Of course I'll try custom ROM with the new kernel, but only if it bring something really useful.

I was pretty dissapointed when I found out that the TP was running ICS without a linux 3.0 based kernel. Does anyone think that is part of the lock up and freezing problem? ICS was designed to run on top of a 3.0 kernel and I hope ASUS can bring an updated kernel soon so we can experience a 'more true' ICS. I will say that the TP is by far the fastest tablet I have ever owned so overall very happy with my purchase.

I agree, I'm no expert on this topic, but I do note when CM9 switched to a 3.0.8 kernel for my Galaxy S, it has been more reliable, my uptime has been weeks, and has been faster to boot.
On top of this, this rom is considered alpha quality too .

The difference between 2.6.39 and 3.0 is minimal. See here.
Quoted from the link:
For those of us not on the kernel developer list, what are the major differences between 3.00 and 2.640?
Actually there is no differencies at all between those. They are the same.
This is a kind of discussion Linus Torvalds started would it be time to name the newest kernel 3.0.0 or just continue the 2 series naming.
Generally upgrading the versioning from 2 series to 3 series would require at least one major change. Now it is planned that this kernel would be thoroughly cleaned up from a lot of old cruft, but is that enough, let's see.

With all the kernels and releases coming out, what is the general consensus on when ICS ROMs will be considered stable or feature-complete?
Was the recent i777 leak what developers were looking for to complete/optimize ICS ROMs? Or are we still waiting on i777 kernel source? Is Entropy's kernel a long-term solution?
Just wondering when to flash.
Thanks forum.

I have yet to find a single bug running Shoman's rom. Your mileage may vary, read the thread et cetera but if you're asking when to flash I'd just go for it.
+1 on Shoman's ICS rom. It has operated flawlessly for me.
I9100 source is what we needed. We're only a little bit behind I9100 now. I9100 ICS has some nasty stability problems, I'm hoping to fix them before releasing DD for ICS. I'm working with gokhanmoral and a few others on it, it's not I777 unique.

SHOstock ICS rom is amazingly stable and already in 5th release with more on the way
CM9 now has nightly builds for I-777. I fell in love with CM7 and am really liking the official CM9 nighty builds so far.
ICS leak
The ICS i777 leak, which has been bundled as a cwm zip without bootloaders
is working good for me with only a few minor bugs
alarms not working
wifi only scans after toggle
battery stats graph crashes
I don't know how this compares to i9100, the ICS leak is the first I've tried.
It's stable enough for me to not look back and stick with ICS
I'd definitely recommend SHOstock2, it's head and shoulders above the ATT leak in a lot of ways and I haven't had a single crash or noticed any bugs since installing RC4.

I agree with the uclc2 leak, I had the following issues: Titanium Backup would not install any of my games+data and 1/2 my apps would not install. From what I could tell were any of the apps and games that I had moved over to sd card would not be restored under the leak. Than all of a sudden, my phone had locked up after getting most of my apps *from the batch restore missing apps and data* and quit even getting service when wifi was on and try to turn off wifi = lockup/reboot. Really weird after 4 hours of running it. Under SHOstock2 Rc4 everything restored properly and even upgrading to rc5 which gave back the multi toggle options and running very stable. Zero issue with it.
HTH,

Been running the AOKP build from Ported Dev thread with no major problems. Only problem is that when I am listening to music and a text or notification comes in, the music volume is lowered by 2 notches, then when I try to turn it up it goes by about 3 notches. Its a balancing act to get the volume back. Thats my only grippe. I havent had much time to read so I dont know if the newer ICS roms have fixed that issue.
It seems like all the ROMs have a few little glitches. Is there an ICS ROM that can record video at 1080p? Or connect to a 5GHz AP? Or has HDMI/MHL functionality?
I'm switching to the first one that does all 3. I'd be really excited if we can get NFC too.

I don't give a piss about OCing. Anyone calling ics slow hasn't flashed the roms available for the note.
Ocing this phone will not benefit me in ANY way whatsoever. Already score 3800-4200 in quadrant on this rom. Have full premium suite. Run ANY game at a rate that is super smooth. Get enough battery life to have 4.5 h of screen on with 24h unplugged.
Pray tell, how the hell will official ics help me? It won't.
Quit trying to sound cool and say "oh but ocing!" "oh but this or that!"
Fact is, with current roms the note is hitting close to its maximum potential and there isn't much else to improve.
Actually flash what's currently available before you comment on what the note "will be". It's not going to get much better.

There is a lot more you can do with a kernel besides overclocking after the source is released. It will benefit each of us. I say ICS is useless without the kernel source. It may be good now for the people that have updated to the ICS roms but it will be great after the scource is released. You can say what you but there will be no comparison to the roms now and the roms after getting the source even without overclocking. You must have no idea what your talking about or maybe your just not familiar with custom linux based kernels. The custom kernels is where its at.

Since this is a pretty touchy subject... I'll handle it.
We do not have full functioning AOSP roms. The rezound has very difficult tech to reverse engineer. The AOSP roms that do exist all have no data, text, or call capability. Not even wifi. A few have tried to work on getting AOSP over but either stopped in the hopes that the ICS OTA stuff will help or they just dumped the rezound completely. I just hope you don't get flamed.
What hurts the rezound, was that everyone was expecting to get it and then immediately switch to ICS so the gingerbread development lacked a lot. And leaks don't really help us at all as far as ICS goes. Here we are 8 months after the debut of ICS and we are still left out in the cold.
There are a few people still trying to make AOSP happen, but for now, senseless is as close as you'll get.

Let's not flame this guy. Let's turn this into a productive thread about AOSP even though we have scattered comments about AOSP/AOKP/CM in random threads.
Chad is working on RIL issues in his upcoming kernel. Chad is an extremely busy student so don't expect anything soon although he has gotten calls/sms/1x data working.
We really don't have an updated version of CM9 or AOKP but since we don't have data for them yet, there is no reason to make a ROM bot for them automatically compiling roms nightly.
OK now let's get productive. We have GB source. I don't understand why we don't have a CM7 rom yet. Well, I didn't understand why until I tried do compile/port one myself. I am not an expert at compiling from source especially when our device isn't officially supported but my port won't boot past the splash screen. I am thinking about putting the port up in the dev section and turning it into a community project. I have tried the Demonizing AOSP kernel and I have compiled multiple CM7 kernels from source but still no booting.
I know CM7 is GB based but it's better than nothing at least until we get ICS source.

Fix RIL would still be necessary for CM7 as it is for CM9. So given our most recent leaks/RUUs, makes since to focus on one vs. The other... Gingerbread is ooooooold

That's interesting. I always just assumed everyone was so focused on ICS/CM9 that they just never bothered with CM7. I would probably use CM7 over our current crop of ICS choices to be honest.

Yes but it would be much much easier to fix because we has source. Chad even said that 99% of the issues is just rearranging libraries in the kernel.

I would use CM7 over ICS sense as well. I believe a lot of users on here would feel the same.

Alright thanks for letting me know who he was. So now, basically, Chads upcoming kernel will make all current AOSP roms a daily driver (with ril working)? Please tell me if this is incorrect. If its not then I'm actually kind of excited!

There is no guarantee of him getting 3g/4g data working, but if he does then ICS AOSP roms will become a reality.

Alright awesome, thanks for the replies everyone, I can't wait for chad's kernel. And I believe that atm I would use CM7 over the assortment of ics roms we have as well.

I wouldn't hold my breath. Bottom line is that there has been no updates released to the "public" in a couple of months, just word of mouth that they have it working, except for a few bugs.

I think making it a community rom is a pretty good idea.

If that's all you really need then use Slim or CleanRom DE. Slim especially has pretty much all of Sense stripped away either is worlds better for battery life.
Chad is doing what protekk couldnt do.

I just wanted to start a thread here so not to clog beans ROM thread.. We have another kernel for our Verizon TW Roms... I'm sure we will get an official thread from the developer eventually.. So far I ran version 2..and this morning I flashed V3..running smoothly so far and latest has Boeffla support..

Faux posted on twitter that his thread here was getting flamed too much so he took it down. Way to go XDA community. Great kernel though, have been using it for a couple days now and couldn't be happier.

Wow really... I didn't see the original thread.. I don't have Twitter.. It's definitely running smoothly.. I've run his kernels on my Nexus.. We like options.. I hope peeps respect and if not for you move along... That's what is great about having choices.. Did you change any of the settings?

Kernel smooth so far
Running great here. Seems to fix some of the little stutters tw has.

Faux does really good work, and this is definitely worth a look. Thanks for the heads up, but did you ask for the Dev's permission to post this?
003 is out in case you guys didn't see it. It fixes the OC bumping above the max level. It's running great for me so far. Ondemand + intelliplug works like a charm.

Thank you for asking.. I will reach out to Paul on Pm.. I started this thread bc I only found about the kernel on beans 17 thread.. I didn't want to clog up his ROM..

Curious
So what settings do you recommend...I searched the threads but most of the information pertains to Nexus devices
I'm trying ondemand with intell plug.. I'm using trickster mod currently but will be getting his app to support..

Nice!!
Just flashed the 03 note 2 kernel...and my phone is running a lot smoother. downloaded the app to support this kernel...keep up the great work...tracking down info on this kernel has been well worth it!!
Gonna have to try this when I get home, loved his work on the G2X, the only kernel my phone played nice with.

Big supporter of Faux. Bought the app waaayyy back when it was released, even before the Note 2 was supported and been using the kernel on all my phones every since my first Android (and his too I believe), the MyTouch4g. One of my favorite phones ever btw.
Anyway, stories aside, I finally got this thing to mount an sd card on boot. Had to go back to my 32gb san disk. Guess I'll drop out my 64gb since I swear by Faux's kernels. Every thing is smooth as butter so far. Running ondemand and gonna let this baby settle and see how long the battery can last. I think I saw on Twitter someone said they got 7 hrs screen on time.
Btw, faux... does this support you faux sound yet? If not, will be putting in support for it eventually?
It supports boeffla sound which is pretty good. Bought the all too myself. Best way to donate.
