Most roms include the kernal, if they need something they will let you know generally.

Try flashing a diff ROM if it works then its the download if not then further troubleshooting is needed.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
definitely sounds like a bad download
This is actually the second rom I tried to flash.
First rom was miui and it said the something. I thought it was just a bad link.
Second rom was Tuesday and the problem reaccured.
I am beginning to think it's my phone.

How are you installing on your sd?

Wipe data then cache

are you checking the md5? are you installing it through cwm recovery and not rom manager?
Yup through the clockworkmod

hmmm got me beat.
you can try tdj's super wipe and wipe everything clean
you can try flashing a new CWM
try another ROM?
another microsd?
go back to stock and flash again?
if none of those works then yeah... don't know what to say. make sure to check the md5 to save yourself a lot of time
If you don't mind explaining, what's. Md5?

yup. not from any folders.
oh sorry didn't see this post, but basically the MD5 checksum allows us to check if the file we downloaded exactly matches the original file
example (not real obviously)
Thursday ROM has a MD5 of 1234abcde
but what you downloaded has 2234abcde
that means you have a bad download. there is probably a couple bytes different in your download.
like both files can both be 300.1MB
but they might actually be 300.12 and yours is 300.10
THATS why md5 saves us a lot of time
NOT all md5 are listed, but thats the gist of it.
oh and remember your SDCARD card is
sdcard/external_sd/
That's the thing I tried a couple of roms and they all failed. So I'm pretty sure it's my phone.
In this case scenario what should I do to re root my phone. I know there's a couple different ways such as unrooting to sell.
So which method should I approach?
Thanks for all your help btw!

You don't need to Reroot, rooting is just superuser.. it just sounds like you need to get a new recovery that's all. You're already rooted right?
then just download Rom manager and reflash the CWM recovery in there.
Yes i am rooted. Can you link me to a site where I can dl a rom manager?

Assuming you're rooted, download the zip and flash from recovery. After wiping all appropriate caches.

Could be just some type of glitch that happened during your download and corrupted the zip.

They are all corrupted, I downloaded like 3 from his own thread on first page and all of them had the wrong Md5#, not even close so where the heck am I going to get a legit one?

nope
are you checking md5 for the entire .zip package or are you opening up the zip. Do not open them. You flash .zip's in recovery. After you download move to your phone. Boot to recovery and flash it

Has this worked for your device? I already downloaded the file but I'm skeptical about running it since the original person that posted this said this was grabbed from the cache file do I don't know if it is the right file.

No. Stock recovery Only. Unmodded system
Okay I have supersu, should I remove root from my system completely first before running this??
Also does this also mean I have to remove TWRP from my phone before running? Sorry a bit of a newb and it might help other noobs with this too
Must be running stock is and recovery
