Fastboot flash boot <filename> right? Everytime I try to flash a kernel, whether it is the sickle kernels in the sticky or any other ones. Now I'm not positive (I've been wrong before about this stuff) but I'm sure that every kernel I've tried is for my variant, but I get bootloop or no change every time. Any clues?

Here's the pertinent info...
K2_cl running 4.2.2 with nearly current updates (I haven't installed the newest ones yet.) Rooted and s-off. Recovery = TWRP 2.7.1.0 ( that version number is from memory don't quote me) thanks in advance

Are you sure your flashing the right boot.img for 4.2.2 because that can be a reason for the bootloop.
