Root [Boost Mobile] ICS Compatible kernel

[Androidjerr]

My ics compatible kernel can be downloaded at android_device_ZTE_warp.zip

is it a 3.0 kernel? I have been having problems with the 2.6.35.11 kernel hroark made. Ima download and test it out with my cm9 build and see if some of the speed issues and pmem issues are worked out in it.

It is 3.0 ive been having problems with my AOSP ROM but its definitive functional

like what problems with your aosp rom? and do you have source code for the kernel?

 

[Androidjerr]

not on my laptop and just little bugs like rebooting something you would expect from a beta rom

 

[hroark13]

This is interesting, can you elaborate a little on how you made this?

Which ramdisk are you packing this with.


Has anyone tried this at all ?

I don't know his specifics, but ZTE release the kernel source for the V880 3.0.8. I've been looking through it, and in typical zte fashion, its broken. Hey, nice to see you hroark!

How you doing hroark, can someone provide a zip. I will flash if possible.
EDIT :IDIOT, LOL

thanks


the v880 is ARM 6, I do not think it would be too easy to port to the Warp

I would take a look though, there are some interesting boards in there

howsit

well the file Androidjerr is providing for download, looks like a zImage that needs to be packed with a RAM disk before you can flash it.

I would like to hear from Androidjerr a little before I try this on my phone, or suggest anyone else does.

This Androidjerr guy is creating some very interesting threads in this forum, he is working on Jelly Bean, CWM touch and has released a 3.0 kernel, I am almost afraid it is too good to be true, but I will wait and see.

it is good that you are looking threw that stuff

I think our best option would be if the Blade Plus or Fury got an ICS update

I am very interested in how Androidjerr accomplished making a 3.0 kernel that boots the phone

I'm sorry I was incorrect, its for the acqua series. Looking more into it now
Back from a little reading, its the new zte skate acqua msm7227a armv7.

Well I've tried a couple of things, changed my tool chain to 4.6 and 4.7 also tried tried 4.4.3. Now this all with the config that came with the source. Thing that is really messed up is that they released the source before the acqua was released.

This is a zimage i cant pack it on my laptop and need to get a new one because this wont even run debian squeeze. Cwm touch i just used the online builder and i am currently tweaking it. And this kernel is part of the jellybean project thate and yankee are working on. Yumm aosp. Anyone that wants to work on aosp you can contact me or yankees5963

Hi Androidjerr, thanks for replying.

I was just wondering how you were able to make the zImage, what source code did you use. Did you take 3.0 kernel source from another phone and modify it to work for the Warp?

I would love to help with the AOSP, but as you may know I really do not have the time to do dev work until I straighten some things out in my life.


I have worked on CM7, CM9 and CAF for the Warp, but I always hit into a wall when it come to getting the RIL to work. Hopefully you can use some of the stuff I did in your project.

All I have to say is, if you were actually able to make a genuine 3.0 kernel for the Warp, that boots and functions, you must be a very talented dev, and I look forward to seeing what you come out with

i took the generic linux 3 kernel and edited in device specifics it was quite easy i am supprised nobody had tried this aproach i figured that was kindof the point of open source.

 

[Androidjerr]

also my brother left my l
aptop on the couch and fried the motherboard so im going to have to buy a new one so if anyone wants to help yankees with aosp till then they are welcome to

 

[Yunggin85]

[Androidjerr]
