[Q] Changing initrd.gz in boot.img? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hi,
I'm using this rom and want to use this kernel.
So I was wondering how to change the initrd.gz in the boot.img?
I've searched and searched and couldn't find anything.

You can't just change it in the boot.img
You need to take the boot.img from the ics rom and put it in the Zip of the kernel.
But I wouldn't know if the kernel will work with ics

Thanks a lot, but sadly, after doing that and flashing the kernel, WiFi won't work.
I guess i'll have to consult the thread.

Stock kernel to replace a custom kernel

Hi guys,
Is it possible to replace a custom roms kernel to a original one I've been looking all over this forum for a stock kernel to try but no luck.
Why do i want to do this??
I want to do this as I would like to use sky go app and barlcays apps which detect root and it's driving me nuts wanting to use custom again and I can't because the root is in the kernels. Also is there anyway I can remove them from it

From what rom you want kernel?
You can use a stock kernel in a custom ROM but many of the features of custom ROMs require root access so you would lose functionality.
Your best bet is to flash custom firmware in my opinion.
If only there was a way to decompile the Skygo .APK so it didnt check for root access........

I'm trying to use the kernel from an original virgin unrooted GB found at the link. It's T-mobile's official version
And I'm trying to use it with Android Revolution HD™ 7.0.4
Why such the urge to use a certain kernel. Not too sure if the my sense kernel would work with sense3.5

Unpack the boot.img using my tools here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2319018
Then unpack the boot.img from one of your other AOSP roms and replace the init binary inside the OMNI boot.img ramdisk, then repack and reflash with the edited omni boot.img

Hi, i want to try another roms, but i want use houstounn kernel because it's super in battery.
How i extract this kernel rom the rom?
help
I don't know much but , as far as i know,
you cant just extract it, and its built for Aosp rom.
Even if you somehow managed to extract it i doubt it will be compatible with *put any rom name here*
The boot.img file is the kernel. Extract it from the roms zip file
