I am looking for a KitKat 4.4.2 kernel with adhoc wireless support. Is there one?

Installation failed every time I tried to install it. Do you know why?

Are you using TWRP? Or CWM? TWRP installs never fail unless you're installing on an unsupported device (a device that is not the Nexus 7 2012 Grouper/Tilapia).

I am using TWRP. Boot into Recovery Mode (Team Win Recovery Project v2.7.0.0) then Install Grouper.zip with or without Zip file signature verification fails.

I downloaded the file with the "Download" button at the top right of your page ( https://www.dropbox.com/sh/pwe87rpzciojb9z/I3UHL9pLE4 ), not from the list. I know that installing kernels works because I previously installed "franco.Kernel".

I got #16aosp installed. Adhoc hotspot shows up (my Nokia E73 phone running Joikuspot Premium) but the Nexus 7 won't connect. It tries to but can't. I am using WiFi Manager with the Android ad hoc warning turned off. Any suggestions about how to get it working?

I haven't tried it myself. But I'll try tomorrow (or ASAP) to create an ADHOC network from my Windows 7 distro and let you know. I think ADHOC networks are supposed to show u pnormally in the WiFi section of Settings.
