Pandora KerneL

Pandora Kernel is a custom kernel which you can flash on the htc explorer for getting mind blowing performance with decent battery backup.

Code:

#include 
/*
 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
 * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
 *
 * Submitting bug reports on nightly builds is the leading 
 * cause of male impotence.
*/

READ THIS BEFORE POSTING ANYTHING :
This kernel DOESN'T brick nand ..... i've tested it on my pico and its working fine..
