What is a custom kernel i guess?

Dude....just read.....A LOT.....and when you think you got it.....go back and read it all again. If you brick your phone....be a good guy and replace it yourself.....meaning, don't take it back to your carrier and tell them it stopped working.

can you give me a link where it has info on kernels and roms

Just go to your devices specific forum and read the stickies.....they will have all the info you need.....

Also to keep people from flaming you or just hating you.....use the thread search and don't open a new topic.....if you are asking the question....it has already been asked a million times. You can also use Google with a search like

Ex: Samsung Galaxy I9100 custom kernel XDA

You will have more than you care to know.....but read it all and you can help future noobs.

Think about in this way, Kernel is a main component of an operating system , to make things easier let’s call it the operating system: and users with android phones install custom operating system mainly because their phones came
with official 2.1 or 1.6 android 3.2 or more recent builds because, as you know, not all phones get the privilege of getting the latest Android 4.x operating system.
Now, in order to install an operating system, you need to root your phone which is the equivalent of being an administrator account , and not a user
: the most famous custom kernel is cyanengon mod

From there, you are able to understand more about custom Android operating system kernels.

The kernel is the part of your device that stands inbetween the hardware and the software. It controls all the basics like charging, handling CPU usage, memory use, etc.
