Hey guys I have a surprise for you. It starts with Linux and ends with 3.4... I have successfully built and compiled a linux 3.4 kernel for the k2_cl (no more using the other devices kernel) without the official source from HTC. Now we can fix kernel bugs as well. So I will need you guys to do bug reports of course... anyways here is the boot.img below along with source link

Goo.im Downloads - Downloading jblinux3.4_SickleKernel.img

https://github.com/sicklekernels/android_kernel_htc_k2cl/tree/htc_3.4/

NOTE: This kernel only works in jellybean... dont report it doesnt work in ICS... okay enjoy..

@Shin, feel free to take the kernel I have and add overclock or whatever you'd like. Its what its there for, you dont have to ask :)

hope this will help.
 
Went ahead and re-flashed JB. Looks good! WiFi, MMS, etc. are working perfectly. This thing is buttery smooth.

Very nice work Shinru!


Who is using the new kernel Simon posted?
 
The big thing I did with that kernel was remove system write protection besides it being 3.4.
 
Simon, I gave it 8 then 11 minutes and it would not boot up either time. It'll get to the HTC screen and just sits there.


EDIT: Figured I'd post this here since this was where the kernel was posted. We can move to the Sickle thread if need be. :D

Yup. I'll try it again the the morning. Hopefully it was just a bad download. It happens sometimes. I'll report back in the AM and let you guys know how it went.

Thanks for the info! I'm going to try to redownload it too.

Did you get the same results that I did with the phone getting stuck on the HTC screen?

Pretty sure it's not a bad DL if it won't boot for either of us. Simon may need to take a look.
 
I haven't even tried it yet. I'm still downloading everything. Haha

I might not be able to work it until later today or tonight.
 
I found the issue in that kernel. I'll upload the new one. I had a ramdisk issue
@shin do you have the lte fixed? Ive been searching the stock Rom for a long time trying to find an lte apn

Lte works but doesn't seem to connect. I will have to go over the stock Rom for a LTE apn.
 
I've looked in the stock rom myself and haven't been able to find a lte apn
 
Do you get lte in your area? Maybe it downloads when it first connects. Idk I don't get lte here in Louisville.
 
It shouldn't. I get 4g though. Basically the LTE gets the apn sent to it by the phone. The tower checks it and says your ok let me make sure I know you. When that's done it says okay you can use the internet now. It's a proxy based system to prevent unauthorized access
 
It's a possibility. Because of the lte internet not Woking I had to drop back to ics because I can't set CDMA only
 
backup your ics apn with apn backup app and restore in jb. or make a apn, use voice dialer and say OPEN APN and make a apn using boost info. maybe someone should ask playfulgod for some help. he is a great developer that knows a lot about custom roms. edit; use airplane mode to reconnect to 4g
 
<apn name="Production" numeric="00000" mcc="000" mnc="00" apn="1" user="null" server="null" password="null" proxy="null" port="null" mmsproxy="68.28.31.7" mmsport="80" mmsprotocol="2.0" mmsc="http://mm.myboostmobile.com" type="mms" />

Apparently this is the only apn
 
try these

I just added them and mms and data seem much faster, cant test LTE currently though

Code: 
<apn name="Sprint EHRPD ota" numeric="310120" mcc="310" mnc="120" apn="otasn" user="null" server="null" password="null" proxy="null" port="null" mmsproxy="null" mmsport="null" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="null" type="fota"/>
<apn name="Sprint EHRPD internet" numeric="310120" mcc="310" mnc="120" apn="n.ispsn" user="null" server="null" password="null" proxy="null" port="null" mmsproxy="68.28.31.7" mmsport="80" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="http://mm.myboostmobile.com" type="default,mms"/>
<apn name="Sprint LTE ota" numeric="310120" mcc="310" mnc="120" apn="otasn" user="null" server="null" password="null" proxy="null" port="null" mmsproxy="null" mmsport="null" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="null" type="fota"/>
<apn name="Sprint LTE internet" numeric="310120" mcc="310" mnc="120" apn="n.ispsn" user="null" server="null" password="null" proxy="null" port="null" mmsproxy="68.28.31.7" mmsport="80" mmsprotocol="null" mmsc="http://mm.myboostmobile.com" type="default,mms"/>

I will post a fix with this apn applied to it for someone with LTE to test.
