I just got my Virgin Mobile one a few hours ago. Got kernel source for it from HTC Dev ( "VM/Sprint" )

shinru2004 · Nov 28, 2014

the VM/Sprint kernel source isnt the proper kernel source for the device, it is however the proper source for the cricket device. once i get a config file that works on the sprint/boost/vm devices i will make a kernel. Check arch/arm/configs the a11ul_defconfig exists but, there isnt an a11chl_defconfig. However, once i post the kernel you can test it to see if it will boot.

Has he tried using the recovery dtb from the stock rom? does the recovery not flash or just doesn't boot? is the kernel source available?

inside4ndroid · Nov 30, 2014

no he just compile stock recovery with twrp and thats just it with fastboot boot recovery.img the output is an error about dtb yes there is a source or from what i believe on htc dev

i believe the kernel for my network unlocked eu 64bit device is the one below my stock phone says kernel is 3.10.28 in settings:

Desire 510
hTC Asia
WWE
CRC
3.10.28
v4.4.3 441 MB
1.50.707.1

if not then the kernel would be the same version but the uk one on htc dev i bought the phone netowrked unlocked but it came with orange sim???

shinru2004 · Nov 30, 2014

if the output is an error about dtb then he needs the dtb file from the stock recovery or he needs to create a new dtb file to flash with, i will join the google group. i need two things if he can provide them. the stock recovery dtb file and the compiled kernels dtb file. i will make a new custom dtb file that should allow you to flash the recovery and see if it will work. i had to make a custom dtb file for my kernel.

Anyone tried this? feedback would be appreciated, if your gonna leech at least say thanks in the OP

eincognito · Dec 4, 2014

Ben Cosier · Dec 9, 2014

Same. My HTC splashscreen shows for half a second and then reboots. The loop continues. I can still get into HBOOT and FASTBOOT though. It is the Australian (Telstra) version, not sure if this causes 64 vs 32 bit issues?

rbheromax · Dec 9, 2014

If on non-american/us variant, I'll make a build for you guys at a later date

shinru2004 · Dec 9, 2014

This kernel is for the US Cricket wireless variant ONLY no 64 bit device will run this kernel. If you flashed this without a kernel backup then you are bricked until your device has a working recovery. I posted a warning in my OP if you did not read it then that is your own fault I can not be held responsible....

valery · Dec 10, 2014

thanks! will wait

jivewayne · Jan 15, 2015

US Cricket HTC desire 510 here. Kernal version = 3.4.0-g509b88d and@ABM102 #1 SMP PREEMPT. How am I able to tell if this is a 32 or 64 bit device? I don't have a backup phone, and would like to see some testimonies that this will work before I dive in. Sorry I can't be the guinea pig.

chrisflow200 · Jan 29, 2015

Can any one put up a link for the cricket version stock ROM backup mines got erased.

I had to have missed something but was this new kernel for the 32 bit or the 64 bit cricket variant? I see where it's for the cricket but with this phone having 64 bit capability going with the 32 bit now will blow all possibilities for 64 bit in the future I was told. If you could please confirm this with me if at all possible. I thank you in advance and FYI I appreciate everything you do to for the android community.
Thanks again
Jackson
