Question- What advantages will 3.x bring over 2.6.38 kernel?Will it make my porn load faster?
Answer-No,it wont bring any magic,but

Easier updating the kernel to add security and performance boosts from mainline Linux kernels
More support for new versions of Android
Android 4.0 was built upon Linux Kernel 3.0.x and therefore expects kernel 3.0s APIs
Faster, more secure system
Because it's just better

I will be uploading sources to my github,hopefully together we can atleast make it boot
Also,what exactly did u change in the source code ? I shall compare it with mine and see if anything important comes out

Good start bro! 3.0 kernel help us to port Sense 4 without masturbating
First of all we can boot it with golf config but we need to change physic offset,gpios and irq's and edit memory bank's, because we have older radio than golf
If it will boot, we can port other stuff from pico kernel, like himax touch screen or bcmdhd, or bt stack

Thanks,yeah that's what I thought, allocate more memory.
This will help both Sense 4 and cm10 and future android versions, and might even solve the friggin unstable mobile data......
If this works,we can think about caf msm 3.0/4
Lirokoa already kanged lots from golf kernel, its better to use the whole thing

I was able to compile the kernel by making several changes to source code but it keeps restarting after showing the htc logo
