Possible to use different kernel with MIUI?

[jaypop]

I want to use the kernel from JLB 7.0 Stable (3.4.0-ge78e751-00663-ge1b70f8 builder@taishan Dec 26) because the kernel from 3.1.11 and JLB 10.0 Stable (3.4.0-g6c... Jan 14) has broken WiFi for me.

Is it possible to install the JLB 7 kernel on top of JLB 10, leaving the apk fixes intact?
Alternatively, is it possible to install all the fixes in JLB 10 on top of JLB 7 and be left with the old kernel?

Wi-Fi on 3.1.18 is working perfect, not sure about JLB 10. I haven't installed it.

I doubt it, because 3.1.11 was broken for me too.

With correct password, WPA2 network forever says "Saved, secured with WPA/WPA2" with grey box. See logspam: http://miuiandroid.com/community/th...-wpa2-personal-aes-wifi-network-broken.19336/

If I forget the network, it says "Secured with WPA/WPA2" with grey box.
It won't ever say "Connected" with an orange box.

Try a factory-reset!

3.1.18 (3.1.11 etc.) is very stable, no problems with wifi...

By "factory reset", do you mean Wipe Cache, Wipe User Data, and Wipe All Data? I've done this dance a dozen times and had to restore settings plenty more. (Is it really not possible to backup your Theme settings?)

There's a problem with wpa_supplicant / kernel / other WPA2-Personal AES authentication issue in 3.1.11+, I linked to the logcat spam. Last working version is JLB 7.0 Stable.

No, the "normal" wipe. (probably it's the same )

Maybe Miui Dev. 3.1.18 will fix the wifi-bug?

Same error for me. Unable to connect to Wi-Fi WPA2-AES. WPA-AES works without problems, WPA2-AES works without problems only in 7.0 JLB.

Do you have your phone setup with adb/logcat? If so, can you see if your system logs are similar to mine (http://miuiandroid.com/community/th...-wpa2-personal-aes-wifi-network-broken.19336/) and if so add to the Bug thread there?

Yes, writes me the same error in wpa_supplicant, it probably will actually be a bug in the new kernel. Today I'll try connect to another AP with a different chipset.
