Hey everyone! First post here... been using this for alot of my issues with my phone issues but the one I'm having now is confusing me. I have rooted the phone and can use the wifi-tether app with no problem (version 3.0-pre13)
I guess before I continue I should give a little info about the phone itself:
Phone: Samsung Galaxy Indulge
Firmware: Android 2.2.1
Carrier: MetroPCS
Now my initial issue was that I could tether my phone to things wirelessly but the NAT type is always really restrictive (2 or 3) so it works for downloading things but obviously any online multiplayer is either bad or non-exsistant
Anyway I did some googling and i've seen form posts that suggested that loading a new kernel onto my phone might resolve the issue. So my questions are:
a) is this true?
b) is it dangerous? (ie might it brick the phone?)
c) If it is true and it is unlikely to brick the phone, where might I find these kernels and instructions on how to flash them onto my phone?

I kinda figured they wouldn't but I thought I'd give it a try.
