Welcome everyone, I was asked by a friend from my old slice of XDA to write kernel tutorials on everything I know about them. So, here we are!

First, you MUST learn C coding. It is not hard, once you begin; XDA Senior member mhrsolanki2020 has written a tutorial for it here on XDA.

So now that we know C, lets try basic step one. We need to compile it!
Go to this tutorial I have written here to learn how to do that. To compile a kernel for your device if you don't own the one v just get your own source, and then use your own defconfig. You will be golden from there.


What do we plan on teaching
  1. Compiling of the source
  2. Making a boot.img for your device
  3. Use fastboot to test your kernel
  4. Debugging the kernel
  5. Using ADB to your advantages
  6. Trick of the fastboot-fu
  7. All about a ramdisk
  8. Adding drivers
  9. More?? You tell me
