need Dorimanx V10 kernel - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
I want to dual boot my s2 i9100 with cm-12.1 and cm-10.
I have those ROMs.
but I can't find the "Kernel_Dorimanx-V10.44v004-COMP-mv3-[10-30]-[29-09]-JB-SGII-PWR-CORE.zip" needed for it.
All the links are dead including this one http://d-h.st/zf3O
please provide me this file if anybody have it or tell me alternate way to dual boot.

AFAIK, the specific kernel build is not not required for dualboot (I don't have much experience with dualboot though). Any recent build from the 10.X branch should be fine (as they are all maliv3 patched).

Adapt script - Share apps between roms (dual boot) - Googy-Max kernel

Hi all,
Googy decided to create a new kernel with the dual boot feature, sure you know.
As the title says, I'm interested in adapting a script a guy made for siyah kernel. It allowed to use the same apps in both roms. Here is the link to that thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32662356
I've tried it but it doesn't work, I guess it must be adapted to the Googy kernel. Maybe the folders location have changed and also Android 4.2.2 has its problems because of the multiuser feature.
I would do it myself but I'm not so expert at all of this. I thought someone would be interested as well and is able to make the script work.
So, to sum up, it would be awesome if somebody could adapt the script and then we will be able again to share apps between both roms.

how to port device to different flavor of android?

Ok so I have built cm11 for my device (galaxys s 4g), and ported cm11 from another device to (aries -> galaxy s 4g). CM11 has too much going on IMO and I just want pure aosp on my device, the problem is that there are no (recent) aosp roms for my device, or any similar devices.
So how do I port my device to a different flavor of android when there are no roms of that flavor?
What have I tried?
So far I have setup the aosp 4.4 repo to a different folder than my cm11 repo (the build environment files should be the same right?)
I tried using the manifest from the cm11 rom and buidling with aosp,that didnt work it didnt even finish compiling =(.
I browsed the aosp source for other devices by the same manufacturer, but everything looked completely different from what I am used to.
The most helpful guide in this direction sofar has been cyanogenmods guide but it has left me with more questions than answers.
What [I think] I need to know
Custom recovery - aosp doent seem to include a recovery, the cm guide says to start with the recovery. So i need to know if I need to add a custom recovery to aosp, or if i can install aosp roms from twrp without breaking it.
Binaries - It is safe to use the binaries used in CM11 for aosp/any other flavor, or are the binaries flavor specific? (im thinking they are safe to use, but not entirely sure).
Device files - what files should be safe to use for any flavor?
Kernel - Cm builds the kernel when you compile the rom (or so it says), does aosp build the kernel when you build the rom, or do I have to build the kernel separately? Is it safe to say use a CM11 kernel with an aosp rom?

[Q] Porting kernel?

Hi guys, I'm doing a Cyanogenmod 12.1 porting for my device that is unsupported. I can build everything and I get a flashable zip but I'm using a prebuilt stock kernel image extracted from the stock lollipop rom. After flashing, the phone does not boot and It's impossible even to access to logcat, so I think it's a kernel related issue. My question is:
- I have the stock kernel source (v.3.10) given by the vendor
- I have the cyanogenmod kernel source (v.2.69)
Do I have to build the stock kernel or I can build the cyanogenmod one by merging the drivers modules and others stuff?
And if I flash a wrong kernel image can my device become unusable?
I read that is not fair importing built kernel modules from other kernel version, but if I merge the kernel trees, is it the same?
Sorry in advance if my question is a noob question
Well I don't know much about porting roms or kernels though. But with what I've heard flashing the wrong kernels can permanently render your phone useless..

Android kernel how to make compatible with higher os? (+Where can I find the patch?)

Hello, I'm newbie dev trying to build CM13 for Lenovo Phab plus.
I think I'm almost finished with device and vendor, but I cannot figure it out what to do with kernel.
The circumstance is,
I have a stock kernel source which runs in 5.1.1 LP, with version of 3.10.49.
What I want is to make kernel compatible with 6.0.1.
I already know that linux kernel version doesn't have to be exactly same with new Android OS versions and I can just make a few patches in order to run kernel in higher OS.
So I googled and studied(?) for 2-3weeks, but got not many useful informations and I still cannot figure out where to find required patches for 6.0.1 .
So here's what I am not sure about.
1. I found that I can either upstream, merge, cherry-pick kernel sources from higher OS. For instance, if I merge kernel patches (starting from 3.10.50 to 3.18 step by step) and check if the kernel compiles successfully, is this a right thing to do? I am confused whether merging or cherry-picking is required for my situation.
2. I see lots of commits when comparing with other kernel sources in github. How do you find those kinds of patches? -> just keep compiling kernel and if error comes out->search->commit
Always this pattern goes again and again till boot properly?
3. i'm quite curious with backports. What i know is that "backports" are the files which is compatible for lower version kernels. For example, backported audio driver originally based on 4.9 can be used in kernels with version below 4.9. Is it right?
4. If there is an useful links, anything could be helped a lot.
THANKS IN ADVANCE.

Compatibility problems and custom kernel

Hi!
I've got a really old and "rare" Archos phone and I'm trying to upgrade it but I have a bunch of questions.
-> is there a list of which android versions can support which old kernels? (like can I get Nougat on a 3.4.5 kernel version?)
-> if I want a new kernel, how am I supposed to choose it? I've found the Mediatek kernel for my phone model but I need a kernel based on a newer version. Is there a tuto that explains how to modify a kernel to support a certain device?
-> can I upgrate my existing kernel without needing to go find another? or can I adapt a newer android version to my old kernel?
Basically, there is no custom ROM for my model and I try to build one and am more and more confused about where to start. (Like if I start with Nougat but my kernel doesn't support it that'll be a bit of a time waste.)
Thanks for your answer!
With regards to a list look inside here.
