hello everybody, I have a question its maybe a little noob but Im still reading and can't find the answer. is possible to flash a custom kernel in a stock rom without lose the camera quality? and if it's possibly which one is the best.

I trying to change governors in the stock kernel/rom but they keep reverting to initial values, in slim rom can stop the cores which is what Im looking for but the camera is very bad compared with stock.

thanks to all.

Flashing a custom kernel requires an unlocked bootloader.

Please read THIS if you're interested in unlocking your device's bootloader.

thanks for your answer but I got the unlocked bootloader, I'm asking because I can't find if there is any problem flashing a custom kernel on a stock rom, for now I'm a little tired of flashing roms so I don't want a bootloop again XD

If you stick with Sony's firmware, you must have a kernel based on it. Flashing any CM/AOSP-based kernels will conflict and bootloop.

Most people seems to use this kernel.
