[Q] Kernel variants to use with Parnaoid Android

Hi,
I am sure this will be a quick answer for most people. I am on Paranoid Android 3.99 RC2. I was looking to flash a kernel, such as Elemental, but there are a few variants - which of these do I need to use please?
Sense 5.5 Android 4.3
ElementalX-m7-6.1.2
OR
Sense 5 Android 4.3 (not working on base 3.10, works on all others)
ElementalX-m7-5.6
OR
Google Play Edition Android 4.3
ElementalX-m7-4.4
Thanks in advance

You shouldn't use any of those. Those are for sense-based and google play edition roms. If you want a custom kernel compatible with AOSP based roms you can try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522854. Its for Cyanogenmod, don't know if it will work for PA. Make a nandroid backup just in case. Hope this helps

Ahh ok, thank you for clearing that up.

[Q] Need a little thought-provoking impulse - ROM-ing not just MOD-ing?

Hi,
since I own a S3 Mini I am into this board and the great custom roms here .. :good:
but what I still don't get: how close are the custom roms to the stock rom.
for instance:
stock for S3 mini is 4.1.2 - kernel 3.0.x?
custom roms: 4.2.2, 4.3.1 and 4.4.2 - all (maclaw roms) use the same kernel 3.0.101
but 4.4 uses linux kernel 3.3 or 3.4?
so what does this difference in the kernel versions (3.0.101 to 3.3) mean? Isn't it like using windows 95 with a windows vista or windows 7 theme?
dont't get me wrong, I love the custom roms! Using the slimrom of maclaw and like it a lot. Just wanna get it right in my head :silly:

I dont really know what are the changes in the different kernels but think of them like software updates, there may be tweaks, fixes and new features
All we have is 3.0 is because there are only 3.0 kernel sources and STE died and are not releasing kernel sources anymore

Hi,
thx for the information!
i've just read about the "STE" thing. Is it the "munjeni" - "story" in the Sony Xperia thread in this board and the legality of using leaked source code?
What a pity

My advice, I would stay away from any custom kernel for the time being. Sense 6 for the M7 is a port and Sense 6 isn't official yet. Though there are many users on custom kernels in the International and AT&T forums, most of these users are using the stock kernel that came with the new base. If you really need to use a custom kernel, I feel that a kernel for the 4.4.2, Sense 5.5 base would be a strong alternative. As far as I know, there isn't a fully working Sense 6 kernel at this time. Good luck with your search and choice.

This is not my Rom but it does look like an official build, it is 4.4.3 which may have problems with newer firmware , I have gotten bootloops but I am having problems with my m7spr and will be downgrading to try this and attempt to use Rom

I guess this only shows on the Chinese website? [I looked on en.miui.com] Is it still KK based?
Are we not better off following STRYDER~007's guide and building on a LP AOSP base if so?

Its 4.4.4 and it would be better to build from source , as I have damaged my m7spr and switched back to the nexus 7 grouper ,I can not build or make this ROM without testing , I have only had problems with boot.IMG but it is pretty easy ,as of now there should be a 6.0 source I have seen it was ported to a new device

I'd be all for giving it a go. I think that sticking to 5.1.1 for now would make the most sense, 6.0 isn't anywhere near ready to daily at this point. - I could give the @STRYDER~007 method a go, but I'm not aware of any non CM bases. I don't have the room to compile from https://android.googlesource.com/ and I don't know of a "clean" AOSP ROM. Any suggestions there?
...I may give CM12 a try, it just seems that leaving as little room for error as possible would be ideal.

What's the solution for mm's camera bug? I think m8 GPE!

Dev's are sayin' mm's camera libs and frameworks is buggy for m7. So we can't upgrade our phones. But I got an idea. M8 got the mm update (offically) so maybe they can search the cure in m8's GPE ROM. Maybe port ROM works well. I don't know. We are desperate for now..

^it could work indeed.. sense 7 based ROMs that are ported from m9 system dumps work flawlessly; full camera and ir blaster support. But as of now there ain't no sense 7 based marshmallow Roms; only 5.0.2. Let's hope someone does port a sense 7 based MM rom soon.

Chances are little to none sadly. Our beloved M7 came to the end of its life it seems. Development is rapidly decreasing, so I wouldn't hold my breath for MM Sense ROM. We can hope, but I seriously doubt it will come ?

Guys, maybe they won't port mm sense rom but there's a hope about mm GPE rom.. I hope they will port it. We can flash sense apps, we can use other thinks but it should be mm..

^Yep.. as should be expected for a 3 year old phone. But there are 5 year old devices (like the galaxy w i8150) that got 5.1.1 and even 6.0.1 based custom roms. while the m7 might not be so lucky, porting a sense 7 based MM rom should be easier than building on a less compatible cm13 source.
