I'm using King's #11 kernel with Fresh's latest. My question is if I flash to Cyanogen 6.1 (when it's released) does the kernel follow to that ROM? I don't want to flash another ROM and run into problems.
Sent while sitting on the toilet.
most roms include there own kernel which will over write any existing kernel you have. CM 6.1 I am positive will have a kernel package with it.
It is safe to assume you wont have any issues
Also ... be sure to do a nand back up before flashing the new rom. That will preserve,, not only your rom, but your kernel as well ... just in case you want to return to it.

I just want to know if those above kernel and roms would work together? The kernels are recommended for the roms!
Thank You!
Could Someone help me! Im a noob at this. This will be my first time! Please Help!
Simply put, no. You need to have the dk28 modem for your first option and the eb13 modem for your second option. So you will have to either upgrade to the leaked dk28 or "official" eb13 to do one or the other first. Just search the site here, im on my phone so i cant link them for you.

You can't.use an android 2.2 kernel and rom on eclair. You have to stay on the same build. Why don't you use Odin to upgrade to eb13 then you can have that rom. And personally o wouldn't use that kernel with that rom. That rom has its own kernel

Installed CM 7.0.3.
Interested in flashing some non stock kernels.
I would like to find the stockkernal [Kernel] 2.6.37.4 [email protected] #27, so that I can easily reflash it.
Unable to find it.
Appreciate a link to a download site for this kernal.
Thanks
I'm not sure about the latest version, but you should check the OP of the nightlies thread in development. There's a link to the stock kernel, I'm just not sure if its the latest. Alternatively, you could just reflash the rom without wiping data.

The incremental update is not the full ROM, they're just small updates for phones already running the ROM. The full ROM will be about ~100+ MB. Also, you will need to have an unlocked boot loader and a custom recovery. Once you have that knocked out just Download the ROM and put it in your SD card. Make sure you wipe all data after you make a backup of your current ROM. Finally, Flash the ZIP and reboot your phone. One more thing, with the CM9 ROM, you need to download the ICS GAPPS so you have the Market and etc. Enjoy.

I know that I said I know how to flash and I just want to know step by step on flashing incremental I have the full rom and I have everything ready but I don't get the part about stocks kernel? I know what kernel is I just want to know what he means by stocked kernel as in the sence kernel or a different kernel
The stock kernel is the kernel included with the rom. If you have flashed a different kernel you must find out which kernel was included with the version of cm9 you are running and download to SD card, then flash. Then flash incremental. Also do not skip incremental. Flash in order of date after your rom download. Example rom- 6272012 incremental-6282012.
I feel more like I do now then I did then.
Thanks

Try out the Mason kernels and see how they treat you. I think the JMZ CM9 Kernel is the Mason kernel. Also, look for the unreleased Mason kernels as they might include new performance fixes and possibly hardware fixes. I heard a rumor of WiMAX hitting CM9.

JMZ stated that if you flash a custom kernel after flashing a nightly ROM you will need to flash the SAME custom kernel after flashing the incrementals I believe he has gone back to the evervolv kernel on latest ROMS for compatibility issues

hey guys..new to this website nd flashin new roms.. currently using paranoid 3.99 for my n7000..just wanted to know what kernel should i use with this ROM for a better performance..?? and how to flash the same..sorry for the noob question bt seriously new to these stuff..
thnk yu..
Kernel choice is up to the user... any AOSP based kernel for your device will work with the ROM. You can make a decision by searching the various kernel threads in your device forum, they should also contain information on flashing. In general you flash the kernel via recovery the same way you flash a ROM (kernels must be flashed after flashing a ROM however, else the ROM will overwrite the custom kernel with it's own).
Hello all. First I want to thank everyone for still being around to help, especially on such an old device.
Anyway, I recently bought one of these and got it rooted via odin. Currently that's all I've done to her. I have been looking over this forum, android forums, and Google in general prior to posting, I want to solve problems on my own, but when I can't, I'm not scared to ask for help. And I need help with a few issues. I will seperate them, to make answering them easier.
1) is twrp not available for this model?
2) if not, the only other recoverys I can find is Phils TouchWiz, and ClockworkMod recovery touch 5.8.1.5. I wouldn't think these are the same, which is suggested? Also Phils Touchwiz was last updated (that I can find) to 4.1.2 which is where I currently am, am I want to go to 4.4
3) I only see 2 ROMs listed on here, and 1 is one of the ones I was thinking of using in Dirty Unicorns. The other I was thinking about was CyanogenMod. Which of these two is suggested?
4) I have no service on this phone, as its my tinkering device. The only thing I need to work is WiFi. That being said, do I need to flash a new modem?
Do I need to flash a new kernel?
Thanks for any help you can throw me. I know there are lots of tuts for all these questions, but frankly they are all very old, and this stuff changes by the day...
1. Yes but this device has recovery and kernel built in together, this recovery is only for flashing / wiping, other than that, it is not usable with other custom roms unless the devs build it to use that
recovery along with the kernel.
2. It's the same as question 1, For Touchwiz Jellybean, you'll need a recovery kernel that supports the android version and firmware, otherwise it wouldn't work or boot up, Agat's Source GB27 for GB27 Touchwiz ROMs. Or specific AOSP Kernels for certain kernel build updates ( versions are compatible with the build date of the ROM's Original Kernel, meaning it only works on certain ROMs that are updated with the same kernel build, for example, A custom 0.0.25 will not work with stock 0.0.26 because there was a major update change in the kernel that'll make 0.0.25 not usable on it. If you use a kernel based on a specific date on an AOSP ROM that frequently updates the kernel, it may not boot up. )
3. The AOSP ROMs that are being updated at the moment are the Teams that do Nightlies. So Cyanogenmod is the only AOSP ROM that's being updated weekly for this device, I have not checked on the other ones.
4. No need to flash a modem if you don't have data service, however it may help either way when using WiFi due to dropped connections, stability etc. For AOSP, use any ICS modem, for Touchwiz, use the same android firmware modem.
Flashing a new kernel is not needed unless you don't like how the stock kernel performs whether if it's power saving or performance. AOSP kernels are kind of limited as the ones out now work with different build dates of the ROMs, Touchwiz has a couple, but Agat63's Source Kernel is recommended by everyone for GB27.
