Can any one tell me what are the differences between stock and other kernals ?
And can someone suggest which kernals is best and which is suitable rom for that kernal ? and is there any way to change the kernal startup screen ?

-- all i know is stock kernel has no swap, and most custom kernel has swap and many other features which u can read on each kernel page
And can someone suggest which kernals is best and which is suitable rom for that kernal ?
-- u can read too on each kernel page for what rom
and is there any way to change the kernal startup screen ?
if that is your own kernel you can do it, but it's someone's hard work and they gave u (us) for free it wouldn't hurt you to leave the startup screen as it is.
just my 2 cents
i think... stock kernel can reboot to xrecovery n custom cant. but custom have big feature... i like
alfs+gdx
naa+gc
naa+gxperia
naa+gdx wifi not work..
sorry i'm new user..

This might be a stupid question, but do I need to change to a Gingerbread specific baseband when using cm7? or is that included in the rom?
And what are the pros/cons of getting a custom kernel?
I'm not really a hardcore user, and i'm not gonna overclock or anything.

i tried nearly all of them,but best working for me is baseband 0218...
when you wanna try custom kernel, have a look at vorkkernel ...
or just run it with stock CM kernel, it´s up to you
What's stock kernel？？And what's latest kernel?I found the words many times in many threads in this forum.Who can help me.Thank you in anvance.
i dont know the correct term but kernel is the thing that kinda complete a rom. u can open about phone under setting in ur phone to see ur current kernel. that is stock kernel.
some roms require certain kernel to enable the rom to works, n some roms can work properly with stock kernel or optional to use with custom kernel.
there are 3 kernels available now for x8, n the latest is nAa v07, however, note that the latest kernel doesnt means that it will provide the best performance. its just depends on the matter of whether the kernel is compatible or not with the rom

Kernel is generally drivers in between your rom and your phone hardware..
Stock kernel is the kernel which is installed by default from the manufacture company.
Custom kernels are kernels made by developers to work better of the roms with the hardware..
sorry for bad english
I want to flash a MIUI rom on my o2x butI now have Horsepower kernel on my phone and it isnt compatible so i want to go back to stock gingerbread kernel. is the kernel included in the .zip or do i have to download it somewhere and if so where can i find the stock kernel?
Pls dont say look in the dev thread, but could you be a little more specific.
Thank you
ROM are always complete that means that there is a kernel.. How would you boot without?
first of all sorry for my bad english
i 've some questions n problems. i 've xperia x8 black n its rooted n xrecovery n cwm both r installed. im using escha arch v3 2.3.7...linuxxperia on stock kernel. but its very slow . i also tried some another custom roms bt same problem with them. performance was very slow. Than i read some topics here on xda and i found that custom kernels will improve the performance.
so i just want to knw
1. how to unlock bootloader and install custom kernels?
2. which custom kernel is better or best?
3. do i need any specific custom rom pre install before installing custom kernel? like as i said im using eshca arch 2.3.7.
4. how can i find my phone model like is it e15i or e15a ?
plz im very upset with its performance . when im using my cell its showing only 30mb or 40mb free ram..

1.there are many threads here explaining how to unlock bootloader, so please read a one of them. also as it seems risky for some users think twice.(you might brick your phone) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436924&highlight=bootloader+unlock)
and when it comes to custom roms, some needs custom kernals and some don't. so decide which rom you want based on their features, looks, etc and if the selected rom needs a custom kernal then you have to flash.
2. read user reviews, also there are some big names like LinuxDX, nAa, alfs etc....
3. nope
4.sorry isn't it showing in "About Phone" section on "Settings"? under "Model Number"?
P.S. i used some custom roms too. but back to stock 2.1 because of battery issues. I used "Sony Ericsson Update Service" aka "SEUS" to reinstall stock rom. and there is a app named "Links to SD" which do the same task of "Apps2SD" so you can free up some memory if you use 2.1.
thanx goldbugbee......
Correction: to goldbugbee
3: yes. For some roms you need a specific Rom. Like minicm uses naa kernel. Etc

2.The best kernels out,in my opinion,are nAa's and alf's search them....
3.the best way to flash a new kernel is while being on stock rom
Attention! You wont be able to boot to stock rom if you flash a cutom kernel,so load the rom to the phone before you flash the kernel,anda then through cwm blabla...
4.Pull out the battery of your phone it should say somewhere
I hope i helped you

Hi Guys
Also, Now Im using Stock Kernel + Stock ROM with some modules from great doixanh
But I need Swap because...sometimes its a little bit laggy and I need custom kernel
It is possible to have custom Kernel and Stock ROM?
cheers

Nope, NOT possible.
Firstly, android is not really ready for swap and it will most likely spoil your sd card much faster.
Secondly, if you need a custom kernel, most probably you will need a custom rom. My recommendation: GingerDx.
