Hi to all....i was wondering if it is possible to use a gingerbread kernel on froyo firmware....
thanks....
No it is not possible, they are not compatibe, moreover the kernel for 2.2.1 at this moment is more developed, for instance you can check "speedmod froyo" by hardcore

what would be the best kernal and modem combo for this rom i really want good battery life I just got my captivate 6 days ago and out of 3 roms i like this one just want to know the best choices.
Speedmod k12t kernel and KP1 modem.
Take a look at my signature, results speak!!
Nothing against what any particular person will state or tell you to use, not all combination's will necessarily have the same effect from phone to phone. This is really the same as which ROM is the best because what works well on phone "A" might not work the same as phone "B". Just try different combos to find what your phone likes because these phones are very finicky.
i've been reading and this is what i come up with looking at the rom i flashed this is what is says.
model #sgh-i897
firmware 2.2
baseband i9000ugjk3
kernal version 2.6.32.9
build # gingerr5
off this info which kernal would i flash the one for captvate or the one for galaxy s i9000.i just dont want to do something stupid sorry for the questions.
You would flash an sgh-i897 kernel.
Here's a link to hardcore's kernel, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893880.
you can use sgs kernel flasher to install it.
The link is at the bottom of the original post in the attached files box
not to ask more ? but is that because my phone is still based on captivate but with just a base rom.and what is really a base rom 2.2 mod to work on captivate?
Yes, the captivate sgh-i897 doesn't have 2.2 froyo yet, because it hasn't been released yet, but developers used the leaked version of froyo to base their roms off of. An i9000 rom is actually a rom from an i9000 galaxy s phone that was adapted for the captivate. But basically, all you have to worry about is whether or not the numbers match up.
Hi all i just flashed my galaxy s to xwjv1 Gingerbread.
i would like to install /voodo/speedmod/CWM kernal
I have trtied with the latest speeedmod odbin package but after install it wont boot! have to flash pda again!
How can i get a hacked kernal on this rom?
You can't run a froyo kernel on gingerbread. Look for supercurio's hacking gingerbread kernel for fun thread if you want a custom kernel.
Until samsung releases gingerbread sources, probably close to official release, true custom kernels won't be possible.
For now, i'd stick with js froyo roms.
Sent from xda premium app on i9000m.
Thanks Got it rooted thats all i need anyways as Ginderbread runs good without lagfix! Even bat life is good with standerd modem!!!
Cant wait for the offical rom will make the phone even faster!
Simple questions:
If I have installed a cooked Gingerbread ROM (2.3.2 JV1 or 2.3.3 JVK evolution), can I replace the kernel with a Froyo version kernel (2.2.1 as JS8 or others)? What happens?
Doesn't work or doesn't boot? Will I have stability problems?
Does it downgrade version of Android on my device? So I will have a Froyo device?
This question come to me cause on other Devices (HTC Desire, Hero, Magic) I had before Galaxy haven't distinct versions: Froyo o Gingerbread ROMs are one package. In Galaxy, instead, I can change Kernels with ODIN, replacing the one that comes with Cooked ROM package... And I read sometimes Ginger Kernel based on 2.2.1... ??? what the hell?
Ciao
You will get bootloops
Btw, this is in no way development related and should be posted in general. Just for your next question...
Should be on Q&A
Hi Guys
I am upgrading to a SGS i9000. Previously had a Motorola Milestone, custom kernel is new to me.
I've been searching and couldn't find anything. I want to load gingerbread XXJVK and use SpeedMod Kernel. Will this cause any problems? If I do experience problems would it be straight forward to go back to stock kernel?

Speedmod is a kernel designed to run with Froyo, not Gingerbread. Many custom 2.3.3 ROMs have you install Speedmod as an intermediary step just to get CWM installed, but it will not work with JVK. You will need to install one of the kernels specifically designed to support JVK.
I STRONGLY suggest you read the many threads posted here about JVK and the process of flashing to it, AFTER you have read the stickies about flashing ROMs on the i9000. Foreknowledge is always better than Support Calls.

Thanks for the advice. I keep going back to the stickies about flashing ROMs to i9000. I guess I will keep reading.
I would wait for the release of Gingerbread . Once its released the devs are going to have a more complete set up to work with .

There's no source to work from... so there's no speedmod as of now. Your best shot could be supercurio's hacked JVK kernel which can convert partitions to ext4. But remember, the rom is still a beta.
My SGS came today. I'm going to look at flashing darky's rom tonight.
I have Cyanogenmod7 RC3 on my milestone at the moment but I don't think I'll miss the 2.3 features.
Again thanks everyone for the advice

Hi, I've been searching about the problem of Wifi with 2.3.4 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118589). So i figured out that the problem could be related with Gingerbread's Kernel, So I wondering if I can flash Froyo's Kernel on Gingerbread.
Thanks
As far as I know no but if you want you could give it a try but here is another kernel that will work for gingerbread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14252293&postcount=28
