[KERNEL] Android 2.3.4 custom kernel - Atrix 4G Android Development

I used the latest MT870 kernel source, link below, to compile a fully working 2.3.4 kernel. I had to fix some minor bugs in their source code, hence the patch.
I can't guarantee it will work for you, but everything works for me. 4G, Wifi, GPS, USB, etc.
My overclocking patch also cleanly applies to it, but I haven't tested it.

Thanks for all the hard work, Edgan!

Don't gunzip it. He is just missing the file.

you should type
fastboot boot zimage
fastboot flash zimage zimage
how ever when i do this i get a remote error of 00030003, unsure as to why
If i am wrong on any of this please let me know.
I am confused now more than ever as to what file im suppose to flash the kernel source is 84 mb but the zimage is like 3

I downloaded the file in Linux, the file is labeled kernel.tgz. Do I unzip this? How do I fastboot install this file? Sorry newb here.

P.S.
You need to Wipe before Flashing via ClockworkMod Recovery..
Currently Testing the zImage Flash atm, so I'll likely have an update shortly that lets you flash the zImage as well.

So (just to be clear) Do I download this, rename it to update.zip, then "reinstall" in recovery?
Or do i have to install rom manager, and flash from its boot screen

Don't Rename, well you can... But never rename to update.zip as this is how Clockwork is Used.. You select from install from .zip & select the name...
You and do either
adb reboot recovery from cmd prompt once you Have the update.zip downloaded from Rom Manager
or
You can Flash from Rom Manager.
Hey,
Great work here.
but, one question. I was told by koush during our talks about getting the bricks un-bricked that the only way to flash the baseband/radio was through odin.
does this flash the radio/baseband?
Thanks. Just want to clarify.

Clockwork Recovery 2.5.1.8. Gt540

This recovery has had NO faults with me so far. Some people have been saying they got this working on GT540 a while back but had issues. This one is fine. I never noticed if anyone had posted this recovery on here yet so here you are:
How to install:
Power the phone down and then put phone in to fastboot, POWER+Camera.
Plug usb in to PC.
Open CMD.
Put the file in the root of the C drive. (C:\)
In CMD type: cd C:\
Then type: Fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery_clockwork_2.5.1.8_swift.img
Once flash is finished type: Fastboot.exe reboot
As soon as the LG logo appears hold down the home button and wait for your new recovery to appear.

Well it's faster @ Backup of files. Similar restore speed though. Also has the ability to partition your SD straight from the Recovery. Which is a great feature for 2.1 users. There are other new features on it too. Not looked at everything yet, but if you require I'll have a good look tonight.
Ok great i will install tomorrow with my pc

It doesn't meant it lol. I has been released several days ago (about week ago).

Sounds like you don't have fastboot. What ROM do you have flashed on your phone? Is it a stock Android version 1.6, 2.1 or do you have a custom ROM 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3? You need a custom ROM with fastboot mode enabled - an explanation of this is beyond the scope of this thread. Try this thread to flash a 2.1 ROM with fastboot enabled. Sorry to be brief but there are tutorials on flashing recovery images and this thread is really just a newsflash for a new release... HTH
I have stock rom 2.1. I did not flash anything yet exept root.

If you have a stock rom you can't flash recovery because you don't have fastboot.

You CAN flash recovery with a non-fastboot enabled ROM. Here's the tutorial:
JackG from MoDaCo said:
Yes there is, make sure you have the fastboot rom flashed and you are rooted, and download something called "flash_image" (from the attachments below) and put it in the root of your SD Card, get your recovery image in the root of the card too.
Then, download Terminal Emulator from the market when it opens press the menu button and select "Toggle Soft Keyboard" when the keyboard comes up type in
CODE
su
cd /sdcard
chmod 755 flash_image
./flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
(Change the recovery.img to the name of your recovery image eg. recovery_clockwork_2.5.1.8_swift.img or recovery_clockwork_2.5.0.5_swift.img)
Then, reboot the phone, and hold down the Menu+Power and you should be welcomed with the Clockwork menu.

Thanks man, really appreciate it.
I'd love it of you'd upload it. More importantly tho can you explain why certain Roms/kernels don't flash without error? It's a recovery issue I'm assuming? Hoping a recovery is update will be made available soon. If not I'm contemplating flashing back back to 11A lol.

Stock Kernel

Greetings XDA'ers,
Can someone point me where I can grab the latest stock kernel? I went on Google and downloaded the stock image and extracted it but could not find the kernel in it. As for the actual system image I could not open it up with 7 zip... Ideas?
7zip works, not sure what you're doing wrong. The kernel is the file called "boot.img" so that is what you will need.
