Aokp rom

[sadiqsamm]

I am using aokp ROM on top of stock kernel. What am I really missing out folks?

????????
Vague information provided
Which rom?
What software build?
What kernel?
What are you trying to achieve?

Which AOKP ROM?
Now that I think about it, did any of the aokp ROMs use the stock kernel? I think most of the time they use leankernel, but I don't keep the same kernel long enough to remember.

I'm on AOKP JB build1 with Trinity and loving it

Aokp_maguro_jb_built-1
Black-bean-v3.1.1
Kernel: 3.036-tuna-faux123-jb-019+

Ok...so what do you want out of it?

 

[tgyberg]

Is that the stock kernel or is it the faux kernel?

 

[dezymond]

I think OP may be confused. I'm pretty sure tuna isn't the stock kernel, but it came with the ROM, hence his confusion with the use of "stock kernel".

You got a top of the line ROM with a kernel that the dev believes works best with it. If you want to switch kernels you certainly can.

Actually who knows what the stock JB kernel for maguro/GSM looks like?! But yea, unless the op specifically flashed the stock kernel after flashing the rom, I'm sure that's the kernel that the dev included with his version of aokp.

I don't know any devs, especially Team Kang that sticks with the factory kernel

The stock kernel in aokp is the faux kernel... tuna is the board...... that's a great kernel.. with that kernel you've not really anything

Thanks alot for the eye opening discussion. I tried flashing lean kernel yesterday without success. My phone went into boot loop. How do I know a kernel is jb compatible and how do I flash it when I have already flashed a custom ROM of my choice? Forgive my ignorance/naivity. I am totally new on these things.

With lean kernel.. the new build.. 4.x are jb kernels.. 3.x is ics

As mentioned for Lean Kernel his JB kernels are 4.X thus far, he may bump up to 5.X at some point, and may go beyond that eventually too. His ICS kernels were 3.X and below (there was a 1.X and 2.X series).

The kernel dev should have listed what the kernel is compatible with in their description for the download.

You flash a kernel the same way you flash a ROM. Remember to clear the cahe and dalvik cache before flashing the new kernel in your custom recovery.

I am greatful.
