That's actually a bug in the CWM version included in the Kernel, not the Kernel fault. Would need to be repackaged with a more recent CWM and everything would work as expected.


I agree on the fact that this kernel is a reference. Fast, stable and branding free. A really good job!
Too bad can't find sources online ;)

This is my first kernel
So I though aroma is half screen with malfunctioning touch!!!
I was wrong!
How to remove that
Even though it's not a big prob and I can navigate using volume+home button, touch aroma would feel better!

Repackaging the kernel is quite easy... But wouldn't dare posting a modified version of this kernel without slade87's approval.
In case he doesn't mind somebody posting in here his kernel with a more recent CWM...

Yeah but no ;)

I respect people that put a lot of effort in providing a fine piece of work, especially when it is for free.

I won't usurpate his work by posting a modded kernel based on his work.
People that want an updated CWM in Kernel Panic may follow any guide available that explains how to unpack and repack a kernel.

For reference, here are the steps:
  • First, you need the appropriate tools: unpackbootimg and mkbootimg. You can find them in this repo with the required info to build them too.
  • So you now first need to unpack the kernel. To do so, use unpackbootimg. Take the kernel img you want to modify and execute a statement similar to the following: ./unpackbootimg -i kernel.img -o boot
  • In the current directory, directory boot, the kernel will be unpacked and you'll find files called *-zImage, *-ramdisk.gz.
  • Provided that the current ramdisk is packed with Gzip, create a directory inside the current, cd to it and to unpack it you'll need to execute: gunzip -dc ../the_kernel-ramdisk.gz | cpio -i
  • now you have to cd to that directory. Find a file called recovery and replace with a more recent version of it. Beware that you can't replace a 6.0.x.x. version with a 6.1.x.x version, you'd have to change many more things and success isn't actually guaranteed.
  • So you did replace the recovery? It's time to zip it. Command will be find . | cpio --quiet -H newc -o | gzip -c > ../new-ramdisk.img
  • Finally, repack the boot image: mkbootimg --kernel ORIGINAL_KERNEL_FILE(IT_IS_CALLED_SOMETHING_zImage) --ramdisk new-ramdisk.img -o --my_updated_kernel.img
  • With a bit of luck and good will, your updated kernel is now there with the name updated_kernel.img


Take care,
Ka.

If the man died, left the scene, got married, etc... and he left behing a verry nice kernel, but with a small bug = CWM.

Nobody will fix that only because of the credits?!

In my work, if someone helped me( for free) just editing and replacing some files - thus eliminating the bugs that I ommited, I'll be thrilled.

If someone who have the knowledge to help me by guiding some users who want for example: shut down animation..( i didn't put it in my rom)...help these users... is gold for me.

This means that I have the time and energy to develop further and I'm not wasting time and energy to search and replace some files in my kernel.

So, if you have the time and files... edit the kernel, post it HERE in the same thread, credit you and the initial developer... and that's it!

Everybody wins.

Hi Slade, I'm glad you're OK :)
The statement above means you're no longer updating this kernel I asume. Mind if I ask you, what is / are the reason(s)? :)
I'm using it and plan to use it for as long as I can :) Your kernel is (in my opinion) best what is here so I thank you very much for your work till now :)
