Sooooo, any plans to support other kernels, like Chevys perhaps? I miss my ulv.
Every time i flash anything pretty much other than Slayhers kernels i get a bootloop. Any fixes, workarounds, or suggestions for another ulv kernel that WILL work with this rom?

I love the rom, but im using Slayhers 1ghz 1.6 kernel (which appears to be the only one that doesnt cause a bootloop) and my phone was dead by lunch. With pretty much no use either. (thats 4ish hours of sitting idle in my pocket with wifi off and 3g on) Normally i have around 80-90% by the time schools over. It was completely dead by then. And i even had setCPU set up to under-clock to 250mhz on sleep! Whats the deal?

Chevy's 1.2ulv works for me on rc3. So does sapphires and jdlfg.slayhers work for me with the wifi fix. I haven't tried p3's

Just flashed a Sapphire kernel to CM 6.1 RC3 and seems to be working fine so far. Cleared just cache in clockworkmod before flashing it. No bootloop.

Sapphire kernels:

Update: well maybe not. when I turned on wifi via the power control it rebooted and now may be stuck in a boot loop. lol

The only kernal that i have been able to get to work for me are slayhers, which is an issue most people seem to be having. I tried 1.2lv chevy kernal on rc2 and rc3 and it didnt work for me :(. maybe ill try the ulv to see if that works

would be nice to use other kernals for my phone though, im a fans of chevys as well.

I have a hunch that they arent working properly because the android version is 2.2.1. I could be wrong but kernels seem to be version specific, as there are eclair kernels and froyo ones.

Sapphire v1.1.4 which is android 2.2.1 works with the latest Sapphire kernels.

Does it work with chevy's?

I tried flashing one of chevy's to Sapphire 1.1.1 and it bootlooped.

Restoring CM 6.1 RC3 w/stock kernel clockworkmod backup now. Might try one of P3Droid's next flashed to CM 6.1 RC3:

P3Droid Kernels

Update: installed P3Droid 900lv kernel from link above for Android 2.2 and works so far. WIFI turned on from Power Control in CM no problem. I don't use comcache so I don't care if it works. Just looking to see how battery life is using another kernel and overclock a bit more.

I ran the 8-1 ULV 1.1 kernel with every CM build I've flashed up till I tried the RC-2. It's not 2.2.1, it's all the added stuff or possibly an even lower voltage in the LV/ULV.

SlayHer 1.6 LV1.1GHz kernel runs on mine, but it heats up faster and the battery discharges slightly faster.

However, compcache is the tradeoff. For the moment I can live with it.

furbearingmammal seems to like it :) comcache slowed my phone down after a few days when I used it on Sapphire which required a reboot to get things running ok again.

spoke to soon, sapphires kernal is now causing random reboots for me (after turning on wifi), but i didnt get a bootloop

In the past ive used chevys kernals and sapphires kernals with no issue
