hi all, I have a nexus gt-i9250 this unlock and root for wugfresh, i install the rom aokp build 27 but my question is I want to flash james bond 1.4ghz kernel to flash a kernel is the same process as a rom or different process, sorry my English is not my native language and I'm a newbie
thanks a lot

same process. Just wipe cache and dalvik cache (under advanced) and you're good to flash!

Check my sig for more info if you ever need it.
But yes, same process.
Don't wipe data/factory reset.
Just wipe cache and dalvik cache (in advanced)
Edit:
Ninja'd.

sorry I'm wrong, i install the rom apex, has custom kernel imoseyen, now I can install the james bond, with the same process or when I have a custom kernel is different process
thanks and sorry

Nope, it is still the exact same process as everyone else mentioned. The file for the kernel will only contain what is necessary for it and replace just the kernel.

What are kernels? Which one should I get and why? I am a newbie too. I also have AOKP.

This is a kernel. You can get any one your heart desires, everybody has different preferences. LeanKernel and Franco are the most popular I would say. But the stock AOKP kernel is good.

[Q] serious question guys!!!!

can i flash the darkside kernel in cwm like a regular flash even tho im running jugg 5.0. or would i have to be running darkside rom??
Yes you can flash different kernels over the default kernel for that rom. I know there are a number of people running this setup. One thing to keep in mind is the kernel is not developed for the rom and you may run into a few issues but overall you should be good to go.

[Q] Custom Roms / Kernel Questions

I have a AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-1747) that is running stock with root.
I have rooted my phone using the samsung toolkit located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746665
Since that toolkit flashed a CWM Based recovery I have installed ROM Manager and flashed CWM Recovery version 6.0.1.2
My questions are..
- with my current setup.. am I technically running the "Stock" samsung kernel?
- why would you want to flash a different kernel to your phone?
- and is it necessary to flash a different kernel in order to use certain custom roms?
- At first I was leaning towards flashing CM10 nightly but the more I look at it.. I want to flash PARANOIDANDROID 2.22 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818199
Is this rom fully compatible with my AT&T phone? and since i'm running stock with root, do I need to do anything special before flashing this rom? Factory reset? Wipe Data? I've already made a full nandroid backup.
Thank you!
- with my current setup.. am I technically running the "Stock" samsung kernel? I believe so
- why would you want to flash a different kernel to your phone? Different kernels do different things.. some have better batter life.. some let you OC and UC..
- and is it necessary to flash a different kernel in order to use certain custom roms?Well sometimes.. Well technically.. most kernels will work with most of the ROMS out there.. as long as you stay withing your phones threads.. But some ROMs have a kernal with them.. and some ROMS you need to flash your own kernel..

Thank you for the reply.
On the rom i'm wanting to flash for my SGH-i747 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818199
The steps for flashing are as follows:
CWM: Install Zip: Rom: Download Here Make sure the file you download is PA-2.22-d2att.zip
CWM: Install Zip: Gapps: Download (These are the new ones)
CWM: Wipe Data/Factory Reset
CWM: Advanced/Wipe Dalvik Cache
Reboot and edit your Apps Dpi & Layout under Settings/Paranoid Settings - DO NOT RESTORE YOUR OLD PROPERTIES FOR NOW
Would i need to wipe data, factory reset, then also wipe dalvik cache BEFORE I install the rom and gapps since i'm running stock with root?
Thank you
i'm also reading that for paranoidandroid you must first flash CM10 then flash paranoid.. is this accurate?
umm.. not sure where you saw that you need to flash a CM rom before flashing the paranoid ROM..
I believe the Paranoid rom is based off CM
The instruction on the link you have, in my opinion, is wrong..
The way that i flash my roms is...
Wipe data/factory reset..
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik
Format/Data
Fomat/System ( i think deletes backups) only do in emergency.aka optional step
Flash ROM
Flash Gapps.
THATS IT
Some people will wipe cache afer flashing a rom..
But if you wipe data/factory reset i believe deletes the ROM...

If you are already running CM10 then you don't need to wipe Cache. Just dalvik and data. Im pretty sure thats what was confusing, since this is based off of CM10.

yeah, I just keep reading and reading.. probably making this out to be more difficult than it really is just don't want to end up with a brick or anything.
I'm already on stock + root + latest CWM so I just need to put the files on my phone and flash but I believe these are the steps i need to take:
1- Download ROM and Gapps to internal sd card
2- Boot phone into recovery
3- WIPE Cache/Delvik/Data factory reset> Mounts and Storage- format system
4- Flash ROM and Gapps

[Q] [Arc S] Installing any JB - same problem

I have a problem with the installation of JB. No matter what ROM I install, after boot, when home screen appear, my touch screen does not respond. I've tried a lot of roms and a lot of kernels. I have unlocked BL. In stock rom I have no problems.
What could be causing this? Should I format system before installing rom via recovery or just wipe data, cache and dalvik? When I should flash kernel? Before/after installing rom? I care about CM10. Plz help.
P.S. sorry for my english

I've tried to do that way but but not succeed
Certain ROMs require phone-specific patch, make sure you install it!
Other ROMs have different downloads for different phones, make sure to download correct one!
If you install wrong phone ROM, touch dies.
All question threads belong here in Q&A so please post in the correct sections going forward.
Thanks

The problem is caused by the kernal. You MUST have JB kernel to flash any JB ROM. Generally, for each ROM you will find the recommended kernel and the required steps. Do exactly like posted by OP.
As an example, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1979829
You can make an idea on the steps to follow.

Ok, so now I have installed Xperia T rom (7.0.A.3.195 v6.0 for ARC/ARC-S). Should I flash V77 baseband, then flash kernel from CM10 FXP150 pack via fastboot, make a wipe (data, cache, dalvik) then install ROM via Recovery, and then install GAPPS and it should work? This is what i'm gonna do, so if I'm wrong please tell me.
EDIT:
(edited in case someone had same problem)
I found the solution:
I had to flash BB 72 and libs, then flash ROM+GAPPS and libs once again, then everything works awesome. (edited in case someone had same problem)

Could you please tell me that how can i flash 'libs once again' So, I can try on my Arc.
Thank you very much.

Just read the OP for instruction on the rom you are installing. different roms have different instruction but mostly identical like wipe data,cache, delvic cache.

[Q] How do I install a kernel?

Device:AT&T S3 SGH-I747
ROM:AOKP(Jellybean 4.2.2 )Task650 (4.5.2013) (AT&T)
Kernel:3.4.38 Underwear kernel,[email protected] #1,Fri Apr 5 08:26:52 PDT 2013
Max:1512 MHz
Min:378 MHz
Gov:interactive
IO:row
Issues: self reboots,turns off on its own at times,screen scrolls up/down on its own.
I have been running this ROM since day one basically and I always MAKE A NANDROID,Boot into recovery,Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache, then go into mounts & storage and format system,Flash ROM,Flash Gapps with every update but as of late ive got these issues and my thread has alot of people talking about kernels and im wondering if i flash the devs latest Underwear kernel 4.7.2013 that will fix these issues of mine? But at the same time ive never installed a kernel before ive always just flashed the devs updates and it seems i need to figure out how to get into flashing kernels so if ya can help me out with any info that will up my kernel game please help!
flashing a kernel is as simple as wiping cache & dalvik, flashing the kernel zip and rebooting. where it get's serious is when you're looking for the kernel. flashing one that's not for your device or version of android, say, will generally soft brick your phone. as long as you've done your research, flashing a kernel can be something you do easily in order to try and gain better performance or battery life. cheers
