Bad download? Maybe you tried flashing the kernel incorrectly? I tried the shot of awesomeness v1.5 kernel with this rom earlier and I was able to boot up just fine.

Yeah I will try downloading it again. I flashed the kernel through recovery, would it be better if I tried pushing it through adb? I'm not very comfortable with adb so I try other methods before doing that.

the rom is searching for the wrong wifi intarface name

since colectives rom uses wlan0 for wifi it is searching for eth0

in 7.1 aokp uses wlan0 as wifi interface

so start from there :)

BTW the porting guide i read it and its ok :)

It should work if you just flash the everything properly. If redownloading doesn't help, PM me so I can try and help you further. Let's try and get this booting on your phone as well :)

awesome, will download and check it out. so flashing a kernel is fixing wifi? Have you tried switching out the wifi module bcm4329.ko with one from the custom kernel zips? This is what I had to do on the gingerbread collective port to get wifi working.
Yeah, that's probably it. I looked right at it yesterday before releasing and thought "eh, my base and port use the same kernel" so I assumed that that wasn't the problem. I made another test build and tried replacing bcm4329.ko and it booted with wifi. I didn't look too much into it for bugs and stuff, though, as I had to do a restore to make a phone call.

Alright my fellow Blink-head, will give it another shot with the new base and see what comes up. I'll probably just end up uploading the same rom with the wifi fix later today and upload any bigger updates from The Collective as they come.

I redownloaded and booted up like a charm and this is one smooth gunner! Thank you for all the help. Also I think mms isn't working for me though. I tried sending a screenshot of my lockscreen since this rom makes it so easy to customize I had to show it off :cool: It however doesn't let me send the image through text.

Odd... I sent myself a mms and it worked. In addition, I sent an mms to a friend of mine to see if it REALLY worked and it seemed to have sent fine.

Yeah I guess my data on campus was intermittent today. It ended up sending after my lab. Oh and I tried using the Tapatalk 2.0 app on this rom but it wouldn't connect to any forums. I googled it and it seems that the beta is over now and they won't connect anymore, just an fyi. I haven't bought the Tapatalk app or anything yet.

Well if the beta is over and the app isn't functioning, I guess it'd be easier on you guys if I were to just remove it. I'll upload another version in a sec with the beta removed and working wifi from install.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. Hope the bacon is being enjoyed.

EDIT: A couple games of Gears later and the rom is done being uploaded. :) Link in OP is updated. Enjoy the rom without worrying about flashing a kernel to fix wifi!
