Overclock Kernel Sensation XL

Hi this is my first post, hope i dont break any rules.
I need an overclock kernel for the "Ice Cold Zomb.e" ROM, I seems as though everyone has different kernels but I cant find one. BTW, bindroid kernel doesnt work on this ROM.
Can you help me please?
There isn't an over clock kernel for our version of ICS yet. If you want to over clock you will have to go back to gingerbread and you should be able to over clock any of the GB roms with BinDroid kernel

Thanks for the reply.
Will there be an overclock kernel soon? For me, it isnt worth changing ROM as im going to donate once i get paid. Its great!
FYI - I flashed that kernel to stock ROM and my phone didnt reboot, but I got a lucky escape due to having a random ROM saved in my downloads folder, I then worked my way to this ROM. (Always wondered why they accept no responsibility for bricked phones )

Custom ICS for Sensation xl?

At first, sorry my English, come from Germany..
I have a question for the Sensation Xl..
The good news are, ics come for our Xl, but, does anybody make a custom rom for the xl?
1. My bootloader is unlock ..
2. Superuser is onboard too..
3. What about updates for the device?
4. The most devs sell or leave the xl section..
Think about to lock the bootloader again, unroot my xl, flash the backup i made befor and install stock rom, to keep updates in future..
What do you think? What know? At the moment i used bindroids rom and i really happy with this rom. But if this was the last custom rom for the xl, i think its better to have a branded ics rom at last..
Hope you understand what i mean..
Thanks..

Installing an Android 2.3 ROM

Hey,
Attempting to get a HTC Sensation XL 2.3 ROM but not really finding anything. It seems that everyone has moved towards ICS 4 with it being the latest and greatest.
Using a bunch of Android devices to test a mobile website we're creating but someone upgraded them all to 4 so don't have a 2.3 anymore (which is why I need to downgrade).
They're all running hboot 1.28 it seems as well.
Also tried to get the RUU Runnymede stuff but there's zero information about which one is the correct one to get, they've just got mental names like......
RUU​_Runnymede​_HTC​_Europe​_1.05​.401​.4_R​_Radio​_20.5101​.30.​.
I'm not sure if that's ICS or Gingerbread or what, they're all names like that without any sort of label as to what they are.
I tried the R2 version of that and even after re-locking the bootloader it says that it's wrong (which I'm assuming is because the device is upgraded to 1.28 and ICS 4).
Well if u r looking for flashable zip via custom recovery then u can go to my thread

[WIP] [ROM} [sense5][4.2.2] [htc one mini port}

Ok. with a few people trying to do this i decided to give it a go.
I HAVE NO DEVICE TO TEST THIS ON.
Flash at your own risk. I am not liable for any
problems that do occure from this rom
i may be able to test these this weekend when the girl comes over. if anyone tests these please let me know what the outcome is.
I made 2 different ports going by 2 different guides. i named these beta 1.001 and beta 1.002
These are made from the HTC first deodex and the M4 one mini deodex.
These are compiled on the Newest September 2013 versions of both. trimmed from 1gb to below 600mb
STOCK htc first kernel
No Root
Debloated at&t apks and some useless files
Htcspeak.apk removed (190mb)
TEST VERSION DOWNLOADS
]beta1.001 removed
Beta1.002 Download this versions boots to the boot animation and stalls at HTC ONE Logo
thanks JMZ for the deodex roms.

cool i tried to port it awhile back with no luck so if one of them worked it would be awesome. i gave my First to my daughter so i would not want to test it and mess up "her" phone also I have her on the latest update cause I had to flash a RUU and did the latest by mistake so it is s-on right now and i have not been able to downgrade. I messed it up trying to port cm 10.1. So another reason i would not want to test till i could downgrade and re-s-off. but i do wish you luck.

you couldnt revert to a backup after the cm10 failure?
Nope I had no other Rom on my sd and some how when I did my wipe before flashing the zip my backup got erased I try sideloading and could not get it to work with twrp or cwm so after 3 hours I flashed ruu.

chance for cm ROM????
I'll test your sense room tonight!
Any chance at getting a cm port for the first??
Would love latest cm on this phone
I tried the latest beta version of a HTC One Mini port by nlsolja123 yesterday. It seemed to have flashed with no problem, but then it doesn't go past the "One" screen. I would let him know that I tested it since he asked has anyone done so, but I'm unable to since I'm new. Has anyone else tried it besides me?
That was a post in another thread. But it did not specify which one he tried.

i wouldnt think a cm port would be that hard once there is a htc mini cm rom but we would have to start with a 4.1.1 rom for ease.
maybe a htc one xl cm rom would be ported like jmz did the sense rom.
i would like to know what version the people are flashing and the best one i will keep up and remove the other, any one able to get a logcat ?
i am new to all this so any DEV help is much appreciated.
I tried both zips. After installing (I'm S-On) 001, the phone rebooted, then shut off completely. It did this multiple times. I tried 002, it rebooted and went to the HTC One splash screen, but just hung there. I did a hard reboot, went into recovery, wiped everything again and rebooted, but it did the same thing.

Jmz had a post somewhere about the reason he was able to port Sense to the first pretty easily is because even though it looks like stock aosp under FB home it is still HTC and still sense based. I am guessing till the kernel would need to be worked on to port a cm rom. Also in many of the guides i have read on porting roms it says the port and base roms have to be the same android version i bet that would be the problem here. so till we can get a update to 4.2.2 from AT&T there might not be any luck.

In some sense I agree. But, my old HTC one x, had cm4.3 when only the 4.1 was available. And recently 4.2.2 just release this month for it. Going by the specs of the one mini. Everything is identical except the cameras and the batterys. Same processor, and ram size maybe it could be a hboot holding us back. Would be nice if CM picked up a device and set us up a 4.3 Base .
Alright I'm stand here confused..... Why are you trying to port 4.2.2 from HTC Mini.?
For starters you'd have to use HTC Mini kernel source and add HTC First coding on it to have even a chance if booting 4.2.2... Because a 4.1.2 kernel will not boot 4.2.2.
Why don't you port sense 5 4.1.2 to the device, you would hold a higher chance if it booting

Still to even port you have to have the one minis 4.2.2 kernel ported to even get it to the sense ui

Not Working
ROM Not Working on HTC First
stuck on startup
seems kernel problem
Good Luck!
if its a kernel problem. flash jmz's kernel and see if it helps (now that i think of it i doubt it will.)
Then...if you need a good back up...i have one just pm me ill send you the dl link of the stock rom back up rooted
another thing...
HAS ANYONE tried this rom and been able to restore a back up? or has anyone gotten this to work?
EDIT:
By the way...im no rom dev but using my human logic why not do this:
Get the NEXUS rom. like a stock aosp rom (odex or deodexed) and then simply take OUR stock rom, take the drivers from it, (or from the htc one mini which has ALMOST the same hardware) and put those drivers into the nexus rom. Then the kernel? um...as usual that i have no idea how the hek it is made. But still...is this feasible?

Update HTC one M7 to something newer

Hey.
I've been given an old htc one M7 and wanted to set up to replace a Desire 626 for one of my kids to use and (importantly for them) to play Pokémon Go.
The desire 626 says it's not supported and I'm getting in a mess trying to root / magisk the desire to try and make it work... So this may be a better alternative.
It's running stock Android 5.0. if I wanted to update it to something newer (one reason for this is Family Link requires 5.1 and newer). Will I bork it so PoGo doesn't work or anything to worry about with trying to get it running something newer? I've rooted and unlocked and S-off'd devices in the past. But never used magisk (never got it working on the desire)
Thanks!
Hi Mate. The M7, sadly never received the 5.1 update. At least in Australia nothing above 5.0.x was ever released.

I was thinking a custom ROM to bump the version up so I can get family link although at the cost of his current favourite game it's a risk!
So looking for advice. Remove family link and leave on 5.0 until PoGo stops supporting that or try and upgrade. The ROMs kicking around seem to go up to Oreo?
