[KERNEL][03JAN12] HTC-Holiday-2.6.35-kx 001

---

Disclaimer.
This is a largely untested alpha for a very expensive phone. I am not responsible for anything you do with it.

Information.
This is the initial release of HTC-Holiday-2.6.35-kx, a custom kernel for the HTC Vivid.

This is currently only for PirateGhosts's RumRaider Beta10, but may work with other versions of RR.

More information to follow.

Instructions.
If you don't know how to use this, you shouldn't be using it anyways. BUT....

1. Fastboot flash the boot.img
2. adb push the bcm4330.ko (WiFi module) to /system/lib/modules

Changelog.
001:
Snapdragon compile tweaks
Perflock disabled

Future Plans.
OC/UV
SPEED
Loopback?
Whatever

Known Issues.

• Kernel breaks camera

Instructions for porting to other ROMs.

1. Unpack the kx boot.img
2. Unpack the boot.img of the ROM you are porting to
3. Replace the ROM's zImage with the zImage from this kernel
4. Repack boot.img, flash with fastboot, and push the wifi module

This should, but is not guaranteed to work. Flash at your own risk.

I wish I knew more about this stuff, but unfortunately I don't and here comes a noob question:

Should the kernel not work properly or cause a boot loop etc...would I need to just re-flash the ROM from CWM? Also, will this still work with the Rogers HTC Raider?

So this is based on the Sense 3.5 kernel from Telstra? I guess it will work on any ROM based on this one, right?

Thank you so much!

Yesss

Can you add loop device support in the fuuttuureee!?

If something goes wrong, you should be able to just fastboot flash the original boot.img. It's always a good idea to make a nandroid / Titanium backup before flashing anything though.

This is based on HTC's ATT Vivid sources, packed with the ramdisk from RumRaider 10. It should work with any ROM currently available, but would have to be repacked with the respective ramdisk. Read: This will not work out of the box for any ROM other than RumRaider.

Please read OP; Loopback is planned.

Thanks. Why'd you have to pull the battery?

it locked up while initializing the camera. tried it again just now and it was fine, aside from the camera not working part.

This is on hold until I can figure the overclocking on this out. I compiled Raider sources, and bananacake's kernel, and am unable to change clock speeds past 1.2GHz in SetCPU.
