I am trying to port 3.4 kernel for s advance and if i succeed i'll try with s2+ too. but it seems a very long work. Just to update from 3.0.31 to 3.0.32 took some time. Btw to apply patches is better to use git apply name-of-patch and if it says that there are conflicts type in git status and it'll show coloured in red the files with conflicts to fix

We already have 3.0.101 sources see https://github.com/SamsungBCM-Cyano...ommit/aa186646ef23e57c9ae9b48d6bafc1a47165ace.
3.4 kernel is much harder. We have to redo all patches to 3.0.0 and then merge mainline of linux git into our sources.

yeh you must redo it is in the kernel document ... because there is already changes redo them to apply proproly patch ... and about 3.4 kernel you can't just over write there is kconfigs and make files that have the dirs that contane our drives if you over write them you will loose the drivers ..

I know it's a long way but the simplest one. A lot of patches don't even give error.

succesfully upgraded to .101, wifi works.
Move the script I attached to your kernel root directory and execute it to automatically upgrade to .101.
If you get prompted, type "y".
Wow it's much better performance.
THIS IS WHAT IM LOOKING FOR, It's all about Kernel Version

Ok so I have a device HTC Desire 620 a31ul and I am trying to port it to LineageOS 14.1 and that's why there are so many rejects, because the kernel version is too low, thanks guys!

Why isn't there a 3.4.0 to 3.4.1 patch? I'm on 3.4.0 and I need to get on 3.4.1 to be able to use these patches...

    i managed to upgrade the kernel to 3.0.33 without errors .. tried to upgrade to 3.0.101 or 3.4 ... i got errors .. and it is to much patches ..and it needs time so here is how to do it ..

    we can upgrade our kernel via .. linux kernel patches you can find them here ..

    https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/ linux for kernel .. and patch for patch ..

    https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/incr/ those patch are small steps like from 3.0.31 to 3.0.32 ........

    put in the source dir .. cd to source dir apply patch

    there is two things reverse patch or patch

    patch :

    patch -p1 < ../patch-x.y.z

    reverse patch :

    patch -R -p1 < ../patch-x.y.z

    we use reverse to undo to go to the first one like from 3.0.31 to 3.0 .. something like this ..

    for more information go to kernel-source-dir/Documentation/applying-patches.txt

    Good luck ..devs :good:
