- Critical Remind:
- Flashing this kernel will make your phone Lose Warranty. So please Fully Get Understand of what you are doing. I have no responsibility of any of your lose by flashing this.
- Before you download and flash, to farthest avoid bootloop or bricking your phone, please make sure you have read and understand sections from 4 to end.
- Please be wisely use the "search this thread" at the top right corner, if you can not see it, click Attachment 1577487 there. New-asked-but-already-answered questions will be ignored and maybe disliked or even scoffed by other members.
- I will never talk about ETAs (Estimated Time of Arrival). So please save your keyboard or touchscreen.
- Please forgive me if I did not answer your question, even you asked before some one I answered. Please informe with message if you need me to answer it. Although I can not guarantee I will answer questions promptly, the carefulness of the answers is guaranteed. If the answer is important to you, please bookmark it cause I may edit the answer post with update instead of posting another one.
- And if anyone don't like any part of my word. Please send me a message instead of posting here. All words above are my begging for the nattiness of this thread. I won't open another thread of discussion, cause I saw the discussion theads were mostly useless. Holding one thread is easier.
- Thanks to:
g.lewarne, chandler929, Formhault, androidindian, noteandfound, chasmodo, teamhacksung, samsung, cyanogenmod team, ......,
and a lot of names to add. - Brief:
First, I would like to thank the people I mentioned and not mentioned in section 2. Notably g.lewarne, you are always the owner of HydraCore. Thank you for your great work. Galaxy Note now became a legend with your masterpiece.
Secondly, I would like to thank all people who gave me support, encourage and advise. Under your help, HydraCore has became a really universal and almost perfect kernel.
In this new thread, the legendary Universal Kernel has a new name -- HydraCoreNirvana. I think the word Nirvana can tell the story of HydraCore. With the new name, the kernel steped onto a new stage -- bootable on JB leaks. It is not fully functional, but it is a good beginning.
I have to say that I am not a dev. And I am another Child's Slave who use lavatory time as off hours. I really don’t know how far I can go on this. So please, forgive me if someday I got stuck and be absent like Gavin.
......more to add...... - Technical Description:
- Safety: mem_cap_erase disabled, so this is a safe kernel
- ROM Support:
- ICS (4.0.X):
- TouchWiz Based: TouchWiz, MIUI
- AOSP Based: CM9, AOKP, some PA......, and maybe other untested roms.
- JB (4.1.X):
- TouchWiz Based: experimental support for TouchWiz JB Leak
- AOSP Based: CM 10, SlimBean, AOKP, maybe some PA, ..., CM 10.1 not supported yet, ......, and maybe other untested roms.
- ICS (4.0.X):
- Recovery: CWM 6.0.1.2 from the legacy
- Root privilege: ADB and SuperSU, thanks to chainfire for SuperSU
- Usage:
- Place the ZIP in the TF card.
- Root the phone: If you and if you are sure that you have a safe kernel with CWM jume to next. If you phone is unrooted, Flash the TAR version in Odin to get Root and CWM.
- Now you may meet bootloop, Press UP + HOME + POWER until you see the CWM interface. (the phone will never boot to the system with a stock rom flashed a TAR version)
- Flash the ZIP in CWM.
- Enjoy
- Please don't ask me how to use CWM. If you don't know, don't flash any kernel.
- Download with Changelog:
- Instructions:
- These are SourceForge folders, so open in a browser. The corresponding source is included in the same folder.

- Little trick: maybe you can try middle-click the links, a new tab maybe opened.
- n3.JBT:
- Download: https://sourceforge.net/projects/max...raCore/n3.JBT/
- Changelog:
- Experimental fix for bootloop on JB 4.2.x roms such as CM10.1. CM10.1 can boot with com.android.phone stopped. So it is Experimental.
- Experimental fix for root exploit on Exynos Chips.
- Minor: Changed the name of the Kernel to HydraCoreNirvana. I think the word Nirvana can tell the story of HydraCore.
- Minor: Changed the version header to n which stand for Nirvana. n3 means the third kernel released in the new thread.

- Download: https://sourceforge.net/projects/max...xFu_HydraCore/
- Instructions:
- Known Issue:
- Vibration Strength not alterable on AOSP roms. I am still working on this, maybe compile two different modules will solve the problem.
- Camera Service not work on TouchWiz JB Leaks. The service is not working so both stock camera and 3rd party camera app won't work.
- HOME button not work on TouchWiz JB Leak XXLSC.
- CM10.1 JB has "com.android.phone stopped" problem.
- An empty symlink /d to disabled debugfs found, didn't see any problem with this.
- Q&A Collection:
- How to flash: like I said if you don't know how to flash, then don't flash. Or you can read section 4.
- Can I flash on ...?: Please get to know you rom type, AOSP or TouchWiz based, then please read section 4.
- Bootloop/Freeze/..., help!: please be concrete, I can not answer questions simple like this.
- Bootloop:
- Please check your rom type see whether your rom is supported.
- Another reason is the unsuppored modules. Look in to /system/lib/modules if it exist. And delete dhd.ko, j4fs.ko, scsi_wait_scan.ko and Si4709_driver.ko if they exist. Deleting dhd.ko may also fix WIFI problem.
- Freeze: Usually happens in OC versions. Try to change to STD first.
- Files are crrupted: From 12:00 19.Dec.2012, UTC+08:00, all files uploaded are provided with MD5SUM and double checked with SourceForge. So if the file doesn't work, try to download again.
- May not boot on CM 10.1 (4.2.1)
