ANDROID 4.++ custom rom and stock Kernal for x8 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

anyone can make a custom rom and stock kernel (Android 4.++) for x8 ?? For the X8 user which cant unlock bootloader

nothing will function properly. plus it will be laggy as hell. stock kernel has very little RAM (about 165MB) but custom kernels can provide up to 185MB of RAM. hope you get what i mean.

mmmm well i personally prefer rage kernel but it is actually about taste, you can always try it for a couple of days and change it if you don't like it; it will not mess up with the rom data so it will only take a couple of minutes to change it.
i am currently using xkernelv4, no additional tweaks made for cpu gov and i/o. just leave it at default settings.
still currently testing it, was using rage before, might go back to bbooff once he releases a new one.
still a matter of preference,

You may want to use xkernel v4 by kish. It is stable and battery friendly, everythng is running smooth. CPU and I/O governor also included should you want to OC.

That could be a problem. You´ll need a custom kernal for a good performance.
A custom kernel is especially build for GB and yours is for eclaire and current roms which are verry smooth work just with custom kernal.
That's bad tommorow i will try to unlock it Though i still dunno how to.Those tutorials are so bad(no offence )
Edit:Can someone give me tutorial in which links are actually working ?

i currently have rr 2.2 rom but appart from the looks and animations etc.. is there a difference in performance/ battery compared to stock?
its been a while sinse i have been on stock so i cant remember what it was like and i just wanted to know are custom roms more better in terms or speed/battery/power etc..
thanks

custom rom do come with there own pro's and con's u have to check the changelog of that rom to see whats different in it also some apps which do require root previlage wrks fine with custom roms rather than stock one's
stock roms do have better batt life compared 2 custom ones at the cost of customization with there dull and boring looks
thanks for your reply i guess its just finding the correct balance between customization and battery life then. cheers
go with custom
I had the exact same thoughts when i first decided to flash a custom rom.
Personally i would now flash a custom rom at the drop of a hat, however as the previous comment said there are pros and cons.
do some research on roms with functionality that you require and you'll find one you want to flash no doubt.
hope i helped
i am now running CM9 and its so smooth and looks amazing, a millions times better than stock in almost every way!
Check out the ROM and the comments which people have wrote. Some of them may be good and others may be bad.. you'll be able to work out the missing features of the custom rom bother you or not ^__^ That's how I work out whether to install the ROM XD Most ICS ROM's have their benefits and cons, Gingerbread would be considered the most stable Hope this helps you

Highly customizable. You can overclock, undervolt, theme, use different launchers. To me they're faster too.

cheers guys i guess custom seems the way forward, just need to research the changelog of each rom that takes my fancy
thanks again guys !!
What about if I install a custom kernel, but keep my stock rom? Is there any benefit at all?
To clarify: I'm on i19100 4.0.3 which I've recently rooted. Thinking of installing Siyah 3.5.2 but for now I want to keep my stock (Bell) ROM. What do I stand to gain when I get the Siyah kernel, if anything? Or is the kernel really *only* just a prerequisite to get a custom ROM?
Thanks!

But there's already no brick bug on 4.0.3 right? So... what exactly would I gain with the Siyah kernel?
The only thing I can think of is CPU/kernel modding

One BIG reason I'm on stock ROM and KERNEL is that currently no custom Kernel supports MHL (please correct me if I'm wrong)
For me this is a big problem as I'm always watching movies and playing games on my TV with my phone

It's the ROM, not the kernel, that determines if MHL fully works.
Apparently video works with AOSP, but not full mirror of the display.
However, if you want full mirroring, you'll need to be on a stock Samsung based ROM.
That said, you can still run a custom kernel, such as Siyah or SpeedMod, and MHL will still work as long as you remain on the Samsung based ROM.
I'm currently running stock XWLPX with Siyah 4.1.4, and MHL works fully for me.

DUAL BOOT

Just wanna ask...
Can i have dual-boot Android ROM (GB and ICS) on my rooted and locked BL LWW???
fyi : boot manager application is not supported for my phone
since ICS is bit buggy on playing games, so i can switch between GB and ICS just in a single reboot..
thanx...

Repost.!!
I think u will have ROM space problem...
Mean to say installing both (if possible)will leave you with very less user memory available and as a result your phone may slow down....

Read this.
Yes you can, but it won't provide you some features like USB storage. Furthermore, you'll be confined to CM7 only (for the GB-based ROM) and possibly other ICS--based ROMs too. But you say Boot Manager is not compatible, so long story short, no!
Furthermore, you'll need to unlock your bootloader. CM9 gives almost a comparable performance as CM7 on my LWW.
Simple way, make 2 different nandroid backup with 2 different ROMs that support same kernel.

why?

I have rootet ray 2.3.4
4 navigator programs,and 45 other aplication and games and 8gb class2 microSD.
190-200mb free rom.The mobile is amazing fast
Why i need a kernel(many have problems) or not stock rom?
Why indeed
Sent from my ST18i using xda app-developers app
The question makes little to no sense, but I will try to answer your question, A kernel is needed for every Operating System, it is what connects the hardware to the software, and is specific to each device, Custom Kernels are kernel's developed by custom developers and as a result they may have some issues.
A stock rom is what comes with the phone when you buy it, a customized version of android in it's own right, which is official in sony's eyes, which comes with it's own official kernel, which may also come with some issues.
His question was "what reason do I have to switch to a custom rom (and kernel)?"
One answer is because you're running an outdated OS.
Another is to fix issues the stock version may have.
And another is for extra features not included in the stock rom.

I dont think so. I think he asks why should we change kernel although with the stock kernel, phone still fast.
Well, with stock kernel you have a limit. You can not overclock, undervolt, and some other actions which can make your fast android phone becomes smarter and faster.
Correct me if I am wrong.
P.S. if you are using GB, it is better to try to install Aire's kernel. And you can answer your own question.

overclocking, jellybean, nicer visuals (come on, gb is fugly compared to ics or jb), speed (jb is much faster/smoother than ics, no matter what ics-rom you use)
