how to install a kernel on (windows 8.1) urgently

You have to disable driver signature verification with an advanced startup (search some tutorial if you don't know how to).. than install the flashtool drivers and flash the kernel.

EDIT: look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36603439

Well i have 8.1 and it works

Well i have 8.1 and it works

I read in another thread it works if you use a USB 3 port. Dont know personally, I have windows 7. I also use virtual box which allows me to run windows XP 32 bit and share my USB ports with the virtual PC, but I think I can only share the USB 3.0 ports.

Oh you're right, that's why my 2.0 ports wont work. However to install Flashtool drivers is necessary disable driver signature verification from the advanced startup or you got an error during the installation.

Sorry for my inactivity lately, but I'm back again.

I've added a few new roms to the OP (thanks devs, you guys are awesome).



and I got a newer Firefox os version, the only bug is the camera not really working, I'll post it later.

Still waiting for a poll reset. I'm sure a lot of people are using 4.4 now, or at the least they're interested in who is (such as myself).

 

[kentchristopher]

Thanks to the help of one of the moderators, the poll now has an option for Android 4.4. Update your vote and let's see who's using what!

As a lot of you may have noticed, I've kinda left xda developers because of school and my life are taking a lot of my time.

Which means that I'm not able to update this list anymore. I also don't have my ray anymore as I moved to windows phone.



I'm looking for someone to maintain this list and update it when new stuff comes out.



You need some experience on this forum and have helped a few people, pm me if you're interested

I have a new phone now (Moto G LTE), but I am thinking of changing my Ray into a MP3/Media player device (disabling all phone features/apps, except Music/Video player, WiFi, Bluetooth and maybe Camera).

What is a good stable ROM to flash on my Ray with this in mind? It doesn't need many features, I just want it to be stable 24/7. I'll remove most apps anyway and I will try to max the battery life on it.

You better go for optimax with the ctcaer kernel. Best battery life and stability.

most gingerbread roms always gave me the best results when I still had my Ray,

Check out miuiv2 roms, they're even faster than most stock roms.

repack4pda or illuminative are lean/clean and as fast as possible

I have a Z2 now and plan to turn my Ray into a smartwatch Well, have it do all that only. That is, measure the distance I ran and play music during jogs. Which Kitkat ROM would be the best?

As I require kitkat to pair it with smartband and bluetooth optimizations to listen to music via bluetooth headset.
