Basically I want a modified version of our stock kernel with different governors, would that be hard to do?

Hello
I'm new to this...
I was wondering if I can install the SpeedMod Kernel on my SGS2??
Why this Question:
When I rooted my decive with cf-root and odin I have chosen the Kernel with the same "version" my stock kernel had.
Now I'm not sure if I can install any sgs2 kernel (in this case SpeedMod) or if the "version" is important.
I think that all SGS2 Phones should have the same hardware so I sould be able to use any Kernel. Is that right?
What do I have to be aware of, when I choose a new kernel?
Thanks

Yes you can, don't worry about it. Versions don't care much after all.
Thanks a lot thought that. I'll flash he kernel tomorow.
But what im interested in:
When you say the version doesn't matter why are there so many versions of cf-root? Is'nt that a lot of extra work? Why not useing only one kernel?
Cheers

That's for people who want to stay as close as possible to stock.
The developers compile their kernel to work with any Samsung or TouchWiz based rom.
CF Root extracts the kernels from the specific rom, adds in the goodies and presents it to us for use to root the respective rom. So basically what you have is the stock kernel with root added among other things
ah ok...
That makes sense. Thanks a Lot for the help
So I have heard that the original kernel of Froyo (2.6.32.9 if I'm right) was not clockable. Well, the kernel seems to have got an update in the Gingerbread version (2.6.35.10 if I'm correct) and there is no more touch screen bug so it eliminates the need to put a custom touch lag-fixed kernel on it. The question is, can you overclock the stock Gingerbread kernel (2.6.35.10 if I'm correct)?
i dont think so. however, you can give it a try using the "no frills" app from the android market
OC must be supported by "more" provided frequencies in kernel. This isnt the case in ALL
android stock kernels - even on HTC and Samsung there isnt overclocking supported by stock kernels.
To use a OC app you need a kernel with OC capabilities.
That's exactly what I am asking. Is the official Gingerbread original kernel (2.6.35.10) overclockable or not? Froyo one (2.6.32.9) was not I guess.
Hi all,
we used to be able to switch between roms with the same kernal. There are so many roms and kernals I don't know is there a kernal we can use with the latest MiniCm 2.1.7 and stock 2.1?
MiniCM7 need nAa kernel, and we know that nAa is kernel for custom GB rom
for stock 2.1, I just try ZP kernel, and I think kernel for both MiniCM7 and stock is not yet build
Thanks for the info.
Only on rare cases do I need something from the stock ROM and sometimes if things go wrong I might need to go back to that ROM for a moment, but I miss having one kernal for both...it was so easy to switch.
I can't complain though, the dev on the newer roms is just brilliant.
If you try to use ZP kernel with stock 2.1 eclair, you will not be able to use your touch screen. Modules are not same for GB and stock ROM.
Hi guyz,
I have simple question here..Im using ST15I - unlocked - rooted- with custom kernel and ROM..I want to know that is it possible to flash a custom kernel and the stock rom..?
Is battery life depends on the kernel or the Rom.?
Because every custom ROM which I tested was good...but after few days it gave me problems like getting slow,Force close,freezing touch screen,stuck menu's,..etc.
So I wonder if there any chance to use a stock rom with a custom kernel for better performance..?
tnx
Sure, there is an option to use stock ROM and custom kernel, but they have to be compatible. I'm afraid any of CM kernels will work on stock ROM, but there's plenty of options - Lupus ICS, Extended stock kernel, MESA etc. And yes, battery life depends on kernel. Some of them are battery friendly, some of them not. But in general any custom kernel should work at least the same time as stock one (from my experience).
Bt battery life is also depended on ron, apps,3g, wifi and usage and a bunch of other things and yes depended on kernel too.
Yes stock rom and custom kernel can be done if they are compatible

Thank you gyz.....
Hi all,
I want to know if a rom always contains a new kernel and can you change the kernel without changing to another costum rom?
I'm sure most ROMs come with a kernel that is tweaked, at least a little. That doesn't necessarily mean it will support oc/uc. and yes you can flash a kernel, if compatible with you ROM, at your leisure.
there is no spoon.....
Almost all roms come with a kernel of some type, but I feel like I remember seeing a rom a few months ago that didn't come with any kernel, so you had to flash one right after you flashed the rom before booting up (that's what the dev said if I'm remembering right, I didn't flash the rom).
And yes, you can flash any kernel at any time as long as it is compatible with your device/rom.
Well... if the ROM doesn't contain a kernel (that's kind of common) your previous kernel is retained.
This applies specifically to stock-based ROMs
