Question [Q] EB01/EB16 - how do you know?

Hey, a question...

I flashed the 2.8v, which I thought included the EB16 kernal, but the phone still says EB01 on the "About phone" thingie in Settings. Now, I just flashed the EB16 voodoo zip file on the first page of Adrynl's thread...it still says EB01.

I'm running fine, GREAT, really, but justr wondering where to look so I know I have the EB16 running, and if I am still on EB01, then....why?

Thanks guys, and thanks Adrynl for the fantastic work.

Jeff

You are on EB16 unless you flashed the EB01 kernal after installing SC2.8v.

The only way to check which kernel you are on is by running a command.

Check out post 2178 in the superclean thread (page 218).

I flashed sc2.8v yesterday, and I also still has EB01, and i didnt install eb01 kernal after installing sc2.8, i checked it following the command, shows sat Jan 2, which i assume eb01.

Jan 2... that would be closer to DL30. Did you come from a DL30 version of Super Clean?


Just to make it confusing for you all:
There are currently 6 kernels floating around. EB01 voodoo and non-voodoo, EB16 voodoo and non-voodoo (included with SC2.8), and another set of EB16 voodoo and non-voodoo kernels that were an attempt to fix all the conversion problems (but at the same time introduced a BT bug).

Depending on which kernel you have, you might be getting a different result for the date. It depends on which files they used for that kernel.

If you find that you aren't on the kernel you thought you were, but you are happy with its performance, you might want to think about just sticking with the kernel you have since there isn't a huge difference between them. Everything will get sorted out soon enough.
I have an extra fascinate with a shattered screen. If you have a dead phone I can Frankenstein the screen from, let me know. Thanks!
