I've never flashed a custom kernel. What's the procedure? If I flash a custom Rom (AOSP Extended) when should I flash the kernel? After, before, during? Or does it not matter. Also. I would have to use the hex_a because the AOSP Extended Rom IS for the 6x?

Update:
Cannot install in mi6x, i am using hex_a it says invalid partition. If you could do for single partition(slot-a) package i will test it.
