I want to ask can a kernel cause a screen disorder?

Why am i asking this (according to myself, stupid) question?

Because when I flash HCDR.Jacobs v4.1 or v4.2 kernel on any ROM it causes the screen to flicker and screen becomes snowy while turning on. And when i flash any other kernel, problem disappears.

And, by jacob, that kernel can be flashed to any ROM.

P.S. Can you tell me whats the best kernel according to you for wildfire (include link to the kernel thread please)?

If you are using CM7, stick with the stock kernel included in it. (nFinity by arco). It's the best one IMO, because arco has optimized it a lot for the Wildfire.

Jacob's kernel v4.2 may cause stability issues because it is clocked at 768MHz OC by default, and, many Wildfire's hang or are unstable at that speed. It's unlikely though why its happening in v4.1, but, in any case, its highly recommended to stick with the CM7 stock kernel as stated.

If for any other ROM, use this one. It's the same as arco's nFinity and Jacob's kernel, but, modified a bit to run on other ROMs

Kernel is something like a bridge between the hardware and software to communicate with each other. Eg: oc kernel allows overclocking.

Thats funny as I'm connected to a WIFI N @150Mbps, which I find strange as the device isn't supposed to be capable of it.
Which rom and which kernel are u using.

Have u manually added the network or does it detect automatically.
