steps to update the kernel in thunderbolt

[kksrikanth]

Hi,

Could anybody let me know the instructions to update the kernel in HTC Verizon Thunderbolt phone?

I followed the instructions in the link, Howto: Compile Your Own Kernel V. 0.1 - RootzWiki (https://webmail.maxim-ic.com/owa/re...opic/8824-howto-compile-your-own-kernel-v-01/)
,but the printk messages that I kept in my driver are not displayed in dmesg. I observed the software information in the phone info, which is set as the factory purchase date and HTC server name.

I got 64-bit Ubuntu 10.3 LTS, downloaded and compiled the kernel from the link above,signed as follows

cp ~/thunderbolt/kernel_htc-mecha/arch/arm/boot/zImage ~/signEVO/2.2package_template/kernel/.
cd ~/signEVO/2.2package_template;zip -r KERNELTEST.zip *
mv KERNELTEST.zip ..
cd ..
java -classpath ./testsign.jar testsign KERNELTEST.zip KERNELTEST.signed.zip
adb push KERNELTEST.signed.zip /sdcard/.
adb reboot bootloader

Choose the same KERNELTEST.signed.zip, from SDCARD.The printk messages that I kept in my driver are not logged into dmesg.

Please let me know the appropriated course of action to successfully update the kernel,thanks in advance for the quick response.



Regards,
Srikanth
