Back up your existing setup,
d/l another kernel to your SD card - compatible w/ ROM you are using
boot into recovery, wipe Dalvik
flash new kernel from SD card - read notes for error(s) in CWM after kernel flash/install before reboot
reboot
check which kernel is running
Note that not all kernels work with all ROMs - certain AOSP ROMs require AOSP kernels, same story w/ Sense ROMs.
What if I just wanted to return to the stock kernel?

Yesterday I installed a ROM for the first time. Today I would like to try a different Kernel. How do I just install JUST the kernel ?

Kernels are flashed same way you flashed the ROM. Put it on your SD card, boot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvix x2, and install from SD card.
will i have to install the rom also all over again ?
No. You wont have to reinstall the ROM.

perhaps this will be of help. this is for CM6, but the steps are the same for Sense ROMs.

Make sure that if u have a sense rom, u have a sense kernel.. if u ever get bootloops just reflash the rom and the kernel will be replaced

Why don't you just reboot into recovery and flash the zip?
I wonder as well how to do this. What if my SD card takes a crap and I don't have another. How to install a custom kernel via ADB ?

I an building a rom and want to scrap the stock kernel and replace it with a custom kernel. In other words, I want to pre load a custom kernel into a stock based rom. I want to do this from my pc. Any idea how to do this?

Compile the kernel then use koushes "any kernel flasher" to flash the kernel through recovery

I'm looking to flash a new ROM+Kernel to my phone. I wanted to flash MIUI and Tiamat's new kernel but am unsure of the proper procedure. I've only ever flashed ROMs.
Do I wipe everything, flash kernel, flash ROM and then reboot? Are there any issues I should be aware of first?
Thanks.
Wipe data/dalvik, flash rom, boot, boot back to recovery and flash kernel.

Don't understand all kernel try flash keeps me in bootloop why? I Follow the steps right end up getting bootloop I even switch different recovers the same problem.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
You wiped cache and dalvik, then flashed?
Yes, always end up in a bootloop
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Try this:
-boot into your rom, backup all your apps, home screen, ect
-boot into recovery, do a complete wipe, flash your rom, boot into the rom
-boot back into recovery, wipe cache, dalvik, then flash kernel, reboot.
You're also flashing an aosp kernel for an aosp rom, and sense kernel on sense rom, not mixing them?
There's one time I manage to flash taimat sbc on sense the only problem it made graphic flickering so I restore back to stock kernel. The was it after that i can't even flash any kernel.

That's your problem right there. Tiamat is an AOSP kernel and you're flashing in on a SENSE rom; its not gona work. If you want to you use Tiamat, you need to be on an AOSP rom, like CM7, Evervol, Salvage Mod, ect. For Sense, try the netarchy kernels.
Netarchy tried that too same problem.

What recovery are you using? It sounds like something isn't getting properly wiped. When you flashed to a new rom, did you happen to try using Calkulin's Format all.zip? It certainly wouldn't hurt. Then get the new rom flashed and booted, then try wiping cache and dalvik cache again, then reflash your kernel. What kernel are you trying to use and on which rom? Perhaps the kernel has major undervolting and you're phone doesn't agree with it, which is not uncommon. There are options with netarchy kernels to use more, less, or no undervolting. With aosp kernels, there are some scripts you can use to change/alter the undervolting, to adjust it to where your phone is stable. So I guess that it's either because something isn't wiping properly, or because your phone doesn't like to be undervolted, or doesn't play nice with HAVS.

It seems that the main issue was some emmc issue causing bricks when flashing with ICS because we didn't have an official release or the source.
I've seen a few rom developers state that they think this problem has been solved in some later kernels. Now that we have an official ICS release, Is this a safe process now? Are there certain roms or kernels I should be using to get ICS recovery to work safely?
Basically I want to no longer have to flash el29 just to try things like Google Now ports and stuff. I want a fully mobile option to flash multiple roms at my leisure like other phones
Agats kernel/recovery is safe. Sleshepic's kernel/recovery is also safe. I flash ICS to ICS alot thru their recoveries no problem.

I am glad someone else asked this because I was just about to do the same. I am on Agat and was about to go from stock rom to AOKP Milestone 6 but wasn't sure if I could flash back to TW based roms without having to go to EL29.
How do I flash their recoveries? I already rooted and have superuser. I just don't have a recovery and I'm confused on the articles I've read. Thanks in advance.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Every kernel is safe as long as you don't factory reset. use calks flash all zip instead of the wipe in recovery. Rujelus22 has a 2x wipe zip that does it twice. They wipe cache, dalvik, and system data in one shot.
What kernel should i be downloading? I have stock ICS rooted.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Flash Agats kernel. The .tar file in odin or mobile odin.
