I havent been able to get any of the kernels to work for the stock shipping rom of the phone. Does anyone know of the proper version or are there just none?

Most of the kernels that I found built for gingerbread are only designed to work with sense 3.5 and not 3.0. I can't think of any custom kernels that would work for you other than the stock kernel. You really only have a couple of options if you want to switch kernels, find a rom based on gb and use the kernel that goes with it or switch to ics if you can and use a newer kernel.
Well is there a way i could modify my stock kernel to just support over clocking or is it really not practical for a non linux user like myself to just edit some code? lol

Any kind of kernel tweaking will involve more than a little linux knowledge
I saw a post about swapping zimages. Would that work for this situation? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426499 post #2 he mentions porting to other roms.

I have decided to keep ota 2.3.4 rom but I am rooted. What custom kernels will work with the ota 2.3.4. When I try to flash a custom kernel it breaks the camera. Thanks.
Do you mind me asking why you want a custom kernel?
AFAIK there are no kernels designed for the 2.3.4 update although some might work just a mater of finding one. Could i suggest just flashing cm7 that way you can flash some kernels and on top of it you have a custom ROM with a mess of other features.

He probably wants the ability to overclock...

It's a little old now, but this kernel may work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=820172
thanks efrant that kernel did just the thing.

If you're looking for a kernel providing Audio Boost & support for EXT4, here you go, plus within the post there are a couple other kernels that work fine.

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
I recently flashed my Captivate (I897) to stock leaked 2.3.5 I897UCKK1
I am trying to understand what my options are for rooting to regain wifi tethering capability. Unfortunately, I really don't understand the kernel interaction and the potential compatibility issues. Normally, I understand I just need to stay on a kernel that was sourced from the same version (in this case KK1).
Anyway, I am hoping for some information on what kernels might be OK to use with my current ROM. My wish list in a kernel at this point would be BLN, EXT4 Lagfix (Voodoo or new CWM) and Root. From reading, it sounds like there is a lot more support for KK4.. Maybe I need to move to a KK4 ROM as well?
Thank in advance for not flaming the noob (I hope)

I suspect you're right. KK4 does have a good following since it is the newest leak, and there are several KK4 based ROMs out there in active development that support lagfix.
You won't find BLN on any i897 ROMs, though. There's no source code from Samsung so there is no way for the devs to add it in. For that, you would need to use an i9000 ROM or a 2.2 i897 ROM.
Thank you!
Realy sorry for my noob question, I have a locked bootloader
I was researching a bit about the ICS for xperia x8, seeing that only custom roms based on AVD run on stock kernel, because the AVD is based on the same kernel version.
But, isn't possible to adapt the CM9 to run on stock kernel?
Why the CM9 don't have support for X8 on Cyanogenmod website? How developers made Roms based on it?
Moreover, why all the custom kernels are based on version 2.6.29.6? It is impossible or unnecessary to create a custom kernel based on 2.6.32 or up?
Sorry for my bad English.
So ics can't run on stock kernel.Stock kernel miss a lot of components from 3.0 kernel.The kernel is 2.6.29.6 but to have 2.6.32 need to port a lot of stuff so this mean need a lot of time.The nAa kernel's and alfs' kernel is pathed to 2.6.29.6 For now we have ported some components from 32,35,38 and 3.0 kernels.
We do have ics for stock but it is not for daily use. And the development has stopped so don't expect updates/fixes.
As naa said, stock kernel really can't support ics.

yes ics or jb on stock kernel is impossible and trying to port it is pointless.
We have ics for stock kernel, but gods sake its laggy, buggy. Its not good for daily use. U can find roms like ics. X8 is now old. But u can unlock bootloader by paid method. Next time please search.
Really thanks for your answers.
Interesting, I did not know that the custom kernels had several other superior features.
Actually run on ICS stock kernel is impossible, but there is very buggy roms projects based on avd can i run. What I was wondering is whether it is possible to install the CM9 on stock kernel. I do not think it was just out of curiosity noob ... :laugh:

Yeah. Its possible, check in development section.

I've tried the only two ics roms for the x8 stock kernel, and I know it's possible to INSTALL, but did not to use, because there are more bugs than fixes.
My doubt is if I can INSTALL CM9 in stock kernel, since I tested these roms are pure android, not CyanogenMod, they are based in AVD, android debug bridge. :fingers-crossed:
Sorry if this is a dumb question. I'm still learning about ROMs and Kernels.
Before I installed JB Ultimate N7000 XXLS7 Jellybean 4.1.2 v4, I had the Hydracore universal kernel installed.
The JB ROM comes packaged with its own kernel. Is there any reason why I should re-install Hydracore?Is there any advantage to doing this at this stage?
The only change I can see wanting to make to my phone in the foreseeeable future is to try out the official Sangsung Jellybean ROM when it finally gets released as this may include features or apps not in the 4.1.2 v4 and I would like to compare.
Thanks and reagrds
Trevor
which version of Hydracore were you refering to ? if it is compatible with LS7 ( not too sure about that) then the OC version of it will give you the ability to overclock if you are a fan of that feature.
most continue on Phillz ls7 kernel, its the only one which allows the multi-window feature in ls7 to work
hydracore is not compatible with any leak jb based roms. install only if you want your phone not to boot
Many thanks for your reply.
The zip file I have is GL_HYDRACORE_v5-4_STD.zip.
Since, I've no interest in over clocking, it doesn't sound as if there is any reason to re-install this Kernel and nokiamodeln91 says it will cause the phone not to boot anyway.
I just thought having read the claims made by the develope about it being compatible with ANY ROM and all that, that it might offer some advantage if I want to change ROM later.
You mention Phillz Is7 kernel as the only one allowing the multi-window feature to work. Didn't know I hadn't got MW (Duhh!). So would you recommend installing that to make that feature work? I'll do some reading up about that kernel after this.
Thanks again.

Which kernel you are currently on? If you haven't installed any kernel manually, that means you already have Philz kernel, which comes by default with Ultimate JB v4..
Yes, of course, you're right. I just didn't recognise the name of the Kernel. Sorry.

check out the multi-window feature which is the hallmark of ls7 , some ls7 rom OPs have videos on it , learn how to enable it. its KEWL
Thanks. All working fine.
