I would like to compile several different sets of modules for the stock kernel. I can't seem to get a straight answer on this. If I can, can someone point me to a guide that I can use. If I cannot, can someone point out a tutorial on how to run a kernel with kexec? I asked in another thread, but after several months I didn't get an answer. I would appreciate it, and will post all the modules I compile for all to use. Please educate me.

Kernel newbie here. I've been looking for instructions on how to add netfilter support to the android kernel (2.6.29 in kernel/msm from android.git.kernel.org), but coming up dry. I've asked around before but all I've heard is "you have to add a lot of lines of code" basically saying I need to do copypasta for the netfilter module to get it enabled in the kernel. I read somewhere else that I should use toolchain arm-eabi-4.3.1 and the option to enable netfilter support should be in the kernel's .config and it's just a matter of saying 'Y' to it.
I tried it, but I still couldn't get wifi-tether to work once I had built the kernel and wlan modules.
I haven't much experience in the linux kernel (actually, other than building it, this is the first time I've tried to modify anything, so I'm tackling it head-on), so I need some guidance.
Any experienced linux-heads willing to help?
Could someone within this forum post instructions on how to get the default oc settings in cmparts (jerpelas rom) to use doixanhs x8oc module. Preferably by moduleman himself or jerpelea.
Thanks in advance.
Reading here Link will not only give you instructions on how to install that properly but also knowledge and understanding.
Its a great module, post and thread, but i still miss some info, like how to get module to work with native oc settings in cm rom. a lot of custom roms have this, all except jerpeleas rom. thats the rom i want to use.
Is there anyone with knowledge of this issue. please share it.
Maybe i suggest posting your query there. Making another topic with an existing one will find yourself ignored!
Firstly, I haven't got much knowledge about programming. I'm just quick learner, have a lot of free time and some ambitions to do something on my own. Don't hate me if i did anything REALLY bad ;p
My way of modifying cm10 kernel is simple and intuitious. I've looked at Huexxx's and boype's githubs, read a lot here on xda and tried to understand as much as i was able to. Results are not so bad, i've compiled my own cm10 kernel just with few changes/modifications. But when i wanted to change cpu opps, voltages i realized that i need help of someone more intelligent than me
The question is here: If anyone experienced can look at THIS github, especially at "further modifications" commit connected with CPU frequencies and voltages (this is a step when i failed) i will be thankful. Result of flashing this kernel is being stuck on LG logo forever, with leds turned on.
I've set up github today because i failed to make further modifications and wanted to ask for help.
Thanks in advance,
Hbo.
I suggest you to see my github. Look at how i add 900MHz
It will be better if someone could explain exactly what mistakes i've done, because as everyone knows, learning from own mistakes is best
You need to correctly modify some arrays in smartreflex. I am not a professional at this point and only huexxx is sure of this. There is another method for directly modifying OPPs but i am unable to teach you as it is extremely difficult to understand. PM huexxx, this will be much easier
I was able to root my XT1068. What should I do now to 'enjoy the benefits' of a rooted Android? Someone please guide me. I am an absolute beginner.
if you dont know why you're rooting, why you're rooting?

I know why I'm rooting. I know basic things about flashing ROMs and kernels. I flashed a CM13. I read that there is lot of other stuff that can be done, like increasing RAM and CPU and all that. But I couldn't find any specific guide anywhere. I don't want to mess up my phone, so asked. I tried to flash a (Halogen) kernel using some not-so-helpful guide and it had bugs. E.g. The WiFi wouldn't turn on. That's why it would be very helpful if someone told me properly what to do and how to.

Technically you can't increase your RAM and CPU.
There are apps which say they do but I wouldn't do that if I were you.
Well if you fashed cm 13 then you know it's already rooted (in developer settings).
Flashing custom kernels is your choice.
Rooting is not that great, it does open up a whole new window of things but it comes at the cost of jeopardising the security of the system.
Do some research yourself, apps which you can use ,mods etc.
Everybody's uses are different so you won't get a proper answer but you will get tons of opinions.
And if you need help with anything then ask in the related thread and you will receive help.
Hi all,
I have a rooted sm-t810 running stock marshmallow kernel 3.10.9.8374498 and I have been trying for a long time to add support for my xbox 360 wireless dongle and controllers.
I read a lot online about it and it seems that I need to load a specific module (xpad.ko) that is not available by default in my kernel.
However I have no idea where to find one that is compiled and compatible with my kernel and I have absolutely zero experience with compiling the kernel and/or the module from source, I wouldn't know where to begin or what to do about it.
From what I understand I should download the source of my kernel in a linux desktop, compile the module in it, copy the compiled module to my decide and run insmod it, but again, I have zero experience in all this.
Could somebody help me by giving me the compiled xpad.ko for my kernel?
If not, could you tell me step by step what should I do it to do it myself assuming im a total ignorant in kernels,modules, their compilation, the specifics about android, and everything around it ?(before yesterday I didn'teven ever rooted my tablet )
Thank you in advance if anybody is willing to help!
Cheers,
Mastro
