All of this android stuff is rather new to me, so recently I have been messing around with roms and what not. My first rom was wajees rom which was working, except for the 4g, so i went to go back to the default. For some reason my kernal didn't go back and I dont have a copy. So, does anyone have the default kernal for 4.0.3? thanks.
If you are s-on I suggest faux's kernel.... If you are s-off I recommend kozmik's...
If s-on... You have to manually put the bcmdhd.ko from faux's zip into /system/lib/modules to make your WiFi work

While I agree with you, that's not really what he asked for. If you want the default kernel, you can find here as posted by Kozmikkick.
Sorry... I didn't remember that you could get the stock kernel from his thread

I"m using the AT&T deodexed rom. I'm trying to put faux123 on but all it does is cause it to lock up when it hits the lockscreen and reboot. Sure enough I flashed the stock kernal back on and it boots up fine. I thought all the kernals were compatible

Cool thanks, I'm basically building my own rom, Given the limited amount of choices for this device it seems to be the best way to go. Don't look for it in the developer forum though lol.
I'm basically looking for a stock like experience with a few tweaks.

Kinda new to the android os, coming from windows 7 and windows mobile before. First, i have a HTC Vivid.....I am currently still running the vivd stock rom...I have rooted it with S-off, and have flashed a few different Kernels. Doesnt matter witch kernel i use, if i try to set the CPU to a higher MHz it seams to only show 1188 as the max. A couple of the kernels are suppose to run little bit higher than that, like for one, the KangBang kernel is rated at 2.0 with S-off, but i still only get 1188 option as the max. Now, with these apps like SetCPU really able to change and or adjust the CPU frequency?
Thanks!!

Before flashing a custom kernel you have to first flash an insecure boot.IMG. if you want oc. Go to my kernel thread and down load the stockish kernel. Extract the holiday.IMG from the zip and flash it in fastboot.
It may be flashable in recovery selecting the holiday option when the installer asks. After doing this you should be able to flash any oc kernel of your choosing. You only have yo flash the insecure boot.IMG once. Afterwards you shouldn't ever need to do it again.

Thank you! Didn't see anywhere about having to do that, will try that when I get home today. I'm guessing that after I flash that .IMG I need to reflash the kernel too? The kernels work really good without oc but just wanted to tinker...boy I tell ya, I'm really liking android over windows that's for sure

Well i tried it and it said it flashed, but it is now stuck at the white HTC logo on boot? Do you have a suggestion to fix? Should i just go ahead and flash another rom? If rom, what rom would you suggest me to flash? Thanks

Yes sir that is correct....i went ahead and wiped my data after i couldnt get it boot. So i guess i got to start over now.. I downloaded your pegasus rom, but not to sure how to install rom yet but am working on figuring that out. Do you have instructions to install your rom?
All the other stuff , unlocking bootloader, perm root, and s-off was pretty simple...

You just flash my ROM in recovery. I'd advise selecting stockish kernel when asked as the installer can be picky about what recovery you use for kozmikkernel.

Thanks for your help buddy, everything went really smooth.....im loving your rom very much so!!!
My wife and I both own raiders, originally from rogers..I s-offed both phones and we've been running the dark raider rom since about version 1.2 with no problems..still using wcx recovery as I haven't had any issues with it.
Our friend liked our phones enough to jump ship from blackberry and went and got a used bell raider running official ics. I unlocked his bootloader successfully, s-off worked like a charm, but here it gets weird.
It boot loops after trying to install ANY custom rom..! I tried 3 different recoveries, all of which failed on kernel install.. tried the old way and fastboot flashed the boot.img and still got boot loops or crash to recovery..I'm not new to these procedures..even had hyuh from juopunutbear irc remote in and try his hand at it with the same results.
I restored from bell ics ruu - phone boots normally. What gives? Did bell modify the hardware??
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium
My buddy has the Rogers Raider (and I have the Bell) and I've done the root/s-off etc. on both of them and there was no difference in workflow needed.
BUT - I think you may have to flash an "insecure" kernel just once to allow your recovery to successfully flash kernels during the ROM install.
Below is the thread where you can download kozmikkick's insecure (aka "stockish") kernel. It's mentioned in the first post of the thread below. Give that kernel a flash (It looks like it is in a ZIP format that you can install via your ClockWorkMod recovery?) then try to flash your desired kernel. If you want to flash the stockish kernel manually, look inside the zip. There is a "holiday.img" file.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1572015
Also - Not sure if this matters, but I have been using ClockWorkMod v5.5.0.4 recovery and I have been able to flash many roms (and their respective kernels during the rom install)
Good luck!
So, since he's already s-off now and whatnot I can flash the "stockish" kernel you mentioned on his stock rom? Or will I have to try flashing a custom rom along with it? And if so, coming from Bell do you have any rom recommendations? I'm a fan of the dark raider rom personally.

Sorry bout the link.
I'm not sure if it will work with stock... my assumption would be yes because its called "stockish"... but I dont know. I say wait until you're ready to flash a custom rom before you try it. So - flash the stockish kernel (i prefer via fastboot), then reboot right into recovery, then flash rom... and see if it all went ok?
You have the stock Bell RUU, so if anything goes wrong, you can fall back on that.
Right now I'm on the Pure Velocity rom... loving it.
Omg..ok tried the method u posted with kozmik "stockish"..but got looped at boot... But the rom I was installing had an option to install an unsecured at&t stock boot image and that, of all things, did the trick. What u said made me think to try it.

So... after you got that going, were you then able to flash a rom with a custom kernel (all in one shot?)
Yes. After flashing the kozmik "stockish" kernel, then the custom rom, booting and getting as far as "android is upgrading" before boot looping I figured why not flash the entire thing again this time with the proper kernel and it went perfectly. I was using cwm5.5.0.4 for the record..which I'm told is still the best. My friend was happy, and I was just glad it worked this time..I was so confused why the Bell version wouldn't take the software..!
As always, I found the answer right here on XDA. Thanks again!

I like when things work !!!
Happy romming
this maybe a dumb question, but i'm still learning. I'm running the CM10 nightly roms and i've noticed that the max clock speed is 1188, is there no way to overclock the vivid?
Can you overclock with the Pac-man rom?

Has to do with the Kernel... if you use the kernel that Homeslice made than you can over clock on CM10, in other words it is not rom specific it is kernel specific.
Should be able to find the Homeslice kernel in the PAC-Man thread.

Thank you, another dumb question though. Do you just flash the kernel the same way you flash gapps with the Rom in recovery? And this can be done at any time?
Depends on if your device is s-off or not. S-off = same as gapps. S-on there are about three different ways to do it.

Can anyone point me in the direction how to flash a kernel with S-on?

Use the all-in-one toolkit in the development section

Or since your rooted download the flashimage GUI.apk (free in our themes and app section) and use that app
Here's a link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20926830
We should look into seeing if we can somehow make a script and add it in a Rom that would do this while flashing...I'm sure its possible, just gotta add the files then add the commands to the updater script -this would eliminate the difficulty for s-on users
Tomorrow ill look into it since I get out of school early (10 am ) and have no work tomorrow

That's not like the HTC dumlock thing is it? A script would make things a lot easier for s-on ppl

I don't think that they'll be able to push a full boot.img through recovery while s-on, however they may be able to push the zImage, which should be all that's necessary for kernel changes anyway. So the script would have to disassemble the boot.img and flash the zImage. I don't know for sure if s-on can flash zImages through recovery or not though. At the least, we could force it to reboot to bootloader after flashing so it's waiting for fastboot flash, or we could pack the boot.img in a ph39img.zip that would flash in bootloader? That wouldn't be too bad (or would that need s-off too????).
Idk..I'm gonna decompile the app and see how it actually works after school

Has anyone used the HTC vivid S-OFF tool kit from the same guy who made the all in one tool kit?
What's the process for making my device s-off? Do I have to reflash recovery and my rom again after or can I just do the s-off process and reboot?

Love my HTC One, think more from the tinkering perspective than it actually being a brill functional smartphone.
I have rooted, gone S-Off, latest FW, gotten rid of the red developer text, running Mike's brilliant ARHD 12.0 Rom
Now I am really want to something similar to the above because I miss the tinkering, was even thinking of taking it back to stock again.
So.....what do you guys do after you have done all of the above, basically what is the next level? try different kernel's?
Do what you feel nessasary ive done the same ARHD 12.1 s-off supercid dont no about latest firmware but im using elementalx kernal you should giv that a try next its works brilliant with ARHD :thumbup:

try some kernel, or start to develop your own stuff or just wait for some new releases and enjoy your ONE..
