they say that ketuts blackhawk kernel is pretty good ( but not the best as best kernels dont exist)
and what do u mean by ics for ace ??? i guess we already have cm9 beta 8
the camera issue may take a while though

agree with the prev post.cm9 is great,we just have to wait for the bug fix

Concerning the kernel, one that seems really promising is "The Ace Kernel beta 3.1" : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1606352
It has a lot of features, seems quite stable, even if still in beta.
Notice that it is not for stock roms : only for CM7 roms.
For ICS, there won't be an official release for the ACE. But some dev are working on compiling CM9 (based on ICS sources) for the ace. Look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1490867
The main issue with this port, at the moment is that the camera is not working. In fact that's an issue a lot of CM9 roms are facing at the moment. So, it may take some time to be fixed, but the work done on this rom is simply amazing. It's worth a try.
Edit : If you want to ask generic question about this rom, use this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500234 as the one in the developpers section should be used only to report bugs, and things like that.

Touchscreen problem.
Hi guys,

In my opinion something went went wrong when you flashed. Simply try again to wipe everything then flash again. I use this rom and flashed it on top of 2 other roms, and no problem for me.
I had issues after flashing some other roms, and I think they were caused by some other roms data not wiped before flashing

No ICS / JB rom either cm9 based or cm10 based offers a good battery life. If you want battery longetivity, the name is stock roms.

[Q] CM7 Stable Freezing Issues...

Hi friends... i'm having this problem since RC stage until the lastest Nightlies including the Stable version:
I'm using CM7 stable now and i got randomly freezes when i try to wake up the phone... anyone have this problem too?...
NOTE: i try changing governors using stock cm7 kernel, and I also change it by huexxx kernel, but still having freezes... i also make a full wipe and reinstall cm7 stable but nothing... any suggestions?

List what apps u have installed. Maybe it app-related.
Also i remember that p500 had random freezes with crt animation on so turn off all animations.

In the CM discussion thread, it was mention that LG provide a faulty driver for 2.3.
For a workaround, use a old kernel which have the old drivers: use the huexxx 4.0/Novav11c with the MOD
Don't use huexxx 4.1 kernel

yes i'll do this. i will perform a new clean installation, and then i'll install apps one by one from play store. maybe the backup i made with titanium backup is corrupt..

Try to use a custom kernel (I recommend huexxx kernel 4.0 with mod).
Try to fix permissions too.

I had this problem with all roms I tried... so frustrating when it freeze during night and your clock alarm is on your cellphone.
I tried a full wipe and fresh install with all roms but no success.
The only one who seem to work better is the CM9 nightly 6 ! there is some issues like the phone app crashing ( I'm using a dialer app on the market and it work very well !) The camera is buggy but I dont really need it. The battery ran out faster than others.

Even with ZEUS rom ? i'm using it since first release, and never experienced any SOD

Use CM7 with Huexxx kernel 4.0 with mod. I never had an SOD in 2 months

Listen to this guy!!!

I'm on Cici ROM final.. originally, the CPU min freq set to 200mhz.. I'm having SODs with that.. but after set it to 300, no more SOD.. I think, freeze or SOD on wake up is happening when the CPU is too weak so cannot wake the phone..

Random reboots into recovery

Hello xda
I know there quite a few posts out there with people detailing their phones rebooting randomly but my phone just hit a new level of weird.
My i9000 reboots randomly into cwm recovery menu for no good reason (I know there is another thread about this but that instance is on the Nexus S and the thread has basically died). This started occurring shortly after I flashed slim ROM 4.2.2 build 5 (came from CM10.1 nightlies). Flashing the rom again and updating it to build 6 has done nothing to alleviate the issue.
I'm using the Semaphore kernel with no OC or changed settings, and having recently bought a new battery, I'm really not sure where to start looking for the problem.
If anyone can give me some tips it'd be greatly appreciate, thanks in advance.

hi
randomly i will got this problem if i m flashing backward. like from 4.2.2 - 4.2.1, or 4.1.x to 4.0.x. or repeatedly changing between kernel (i always do this to modified ROM to suits my settings n need) its probably due to changing partition in system or kernel clash (even i did all wipe) in internalsd.
Sorry to say. it will come worst sometimes if u ignore da problem or keep flashing ROM to avoid it. 'Luckily' about 2 hour ago my sgs just did. Constantly booting to recovery n its juz bootloop between kernel splashscreen n sgs white splashscreen after it.3 combo button will not working for recovery n only download mode accessible.
no more method for me . Juz flashing back to stock firmware JVU +CF-ROOT with odin was da answers
but if u dont familiar with odin.seek guide here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2149455
but use it as ur last method!
clashing between titan.....no! kernel maybe da reason.do some wiping before changing kernel or ROM. n format system if necessary before flashing!

Reboots into CMW with Slim Bean 4.3 and Semaphore
Hi guys, any news on the subject? Exactly the same thing happening to me. I did a clean installation of Slim 4.3, after using CM10 and everything seems to be working perfectly except it reboots into CWM every 1-2h!!! I haven't changed any configuration and didn't mess with the kernel that came with the ROM, which is Semaphore... Is it a kernel issue? Should I try to flash the latest version?

I run into the same problem with my current update of my I9000 to CM 10.2.1 and the Semaphore Kernel 3.3.0 (JB).
Any ideas on this issue from the pros?

I realized that it was happening to me only when I was loosing the network coverage, like being in the underground or roaming or things like that... I don't know if it happens to everyone but in my case it's definitely this. If there is no network available my phone will boot into recovery after a while. If the signal is OK, it doesn't happen. Maybe it has something to do with the modem?!

[Q] Re-Rebooting after rebot/start-up

Hello,
I have a minor bug on my HTC One, ROM Viper 1.2.1, kernel ElementalX, TWRP recovery (cannot modify the xda forum signature yet)
everytime I reboot/start-up my phone, it gets stuck after loading my Homepage, then it reboots again and gets stuck at bootlogo
then I have to restart the device by longpressing the powerbutton, the phone rescans all applications and finally starts-up correctly
Have been trying to find some solution on the forum but did not find anything
Does anyone have a hint how to get rid of this?
Thanx in advance

How long have you been running this Rom Kernel combo? Sounds like it could be a kernel issue. Have you tried flashing the rom without the kernel?

I did not mention that I also have removed the red text using the Dark Booloader procedure from this forum and I have also changed the bootanimation and downanimation, just to provide complete information about my phone...
I have been using this combination since three weeks and changing to a different kernel did not solve the issue, I tried Stock and Team7-Performance kernels. I dont want to go away from ElementalX kernel, seems to be the best for me.
According to user signatures on XDA there are many users on combination ViperOne+ElementalX. Is any of you guys experiencing the same behavior?
Thanx

It's not a kernel issue. You need to wipe and reinstall your ROM.

I didn't mean to imply the kernel was no good i meant maybe he was overclocked to high and his phone didn't like it.
No disrespect to you flar

After installation of ViperOne 2.0.0 is this problem solved, for now case closed

If you have followed the instructions correctly then the most common problem is that you are not on eclair(2.1), but donut(1.6). Go to settings>about (or "about phone") and see the "baseband". If it doesn't end in 015 (xxx015) then that's what causing the problem.
Follow this guide to get to eclair (2.1) and try one more time to flash a custom rom, hopefully this time it will work:fingers-crossed:.

No i have 2.1 and the latest firmware,baseband etc...i want to try to flash nAa kernel for this rom but i am scared for another brick...can anyone tell me how to do this step by step?

Yeah, that's normal, custom kernels don't work with stock rom.
Don't let the phone to start.
Boot into CWM (while on kernel logo hit the back button repeatedly) and install the rom. Also make sure to full-wipe, follow the installation instructions.

yes but if i dont see any logo? If i only see black screen?

Mate, you are contradicting yourself.
At first you mentioned that you had soft-brick while flashing the rom, then you mentioned that you had problems while flashing the kernel.
At first you mentioned that you had stuck at the logo, then that you don't see the logo.
Lets make things clear, have you followed the installation instructions?
What have you done exactly and were is your problem?
Have you ever booted on CWM?
If you read my first post again then you will find a guide about how to revive your x8 from soft brick, use it.

Look...i have tried 4 times...i only stuck at the kernel flashing...1 time with freexperia kernel i stuck on logo of fxp kernel...the other times with other kernels (i think alf and nAa (the wrong)) i only see black screen and vibration...i know how to revcover my phone...i flash mother rom with flashtool...i use only cwm...i know this things

If you mean the one that you can download from cm site then I think its better to consider flashing another cm7-based rom as there are better options.(like gingerdx, minicm, etc)
If I remember correctly this rom needs the FXP kernel.

Generally speaking, you will find this info at the first post of the rom's thread you want to flash.
Typical procedure for cm7 based roms is the following:
flash kernel(if the rom requires stock kernel you just skip this step, in other cases you flash the kernel that the rom works with)
boot into cwm
full-wipe(factory reset, wipe dalvik cache)(no need to wipe battery stats unless you have a problem with the battery percentage)
flash rom
(optional)flash gapps
first boot may take up to 2 minutes...

Ok..thanks... have you any suggestions for me but for roms with stock kernel...
