I am currently on Calkulin's E4GT.2.ROM.V1.6.
I want to run CM10 alpha2.3: Android 4.1.1.
I noticed on the download instructions that it says 'Assuming you are on a kernel that has a safe recovery.".
I just have a simple question, can I download and flash CM10 on top of my current Calkulin build, or should I download a 'safe' kernel and then flash CM10.
I'm trying to be very careful here.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Calkulin stopped developing his ROM before kernel source was released and the emmc bug was patched up, so yes you need to use a safe kernel... el 26+CWM is the safest way to go to jellybean i believe.
As Pyrotoast said, using the EL26 would be the best route to go. If you are using the kernel that came with Calk's ROM, you are likely unsafe. Agat's kernel, which is compatible with Calk's ROM should also be a safe alternative.

Ok guys im on android 2.1.1 DI18. I was wondering If i can flash these roms and kernels to my phone? Like are they compatible with my DI18?
I'm interested in this Rom & Kernel...
ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=864445
and
Rodderik's 1.2GHz Overclocked Kernel (Thats what the Rom says to use!)

ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=976194
and
Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11763114
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
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

Hello everyone. It's been over a year since I rooted and flashed custom roms on my phone. So please excuse me for my question. So I rooted and installed Clockwork/TeamRogue with the help of ACS's youtube video. I see a lot of people on FE22, I am on EL29 and I am using The Blu Kuban's ICS rom. Is there is a difference having FE22 vs EL29?
Welcome back to flashing. First, a couple of things: As soon as you flashed the Blu Kuban your kernel was changed to the one that the ROM comes with. EL29 is the stock kernel that came with your phone (and is a Gingerbread kernel). I believe you are now using Calk's FD26 Repack kernel (an ICS kernel). Under 'About Phone' in your System settings it will tell you the kernel version you are using.
Unfortunately, EL29-FE22 are also numbers for modems. So you are probably still using the EL29 modem and the FD26 kernel. The Blu Kuban has an awesome ROM Updater in the System settings and contains all the different kernels and modems that you can use with the ROM. Just be sure to use safe flashing techniques as the E4GT is still very susceptible to being bricked.
And don't forget to follow the Blu Kuban development thread, there is a wealth of information in there.
Is it possible he's running the Blu Kuban GB ROM (hence the reference to EL29 unless he's talking modem) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1449023 as opposed to the Blu Kuban ICS ROM? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625535
The main difference between EL29 and FE22 is that one (EL29) is Gingerbread while the other (FE22) is ICS.
Read up big time before making the leap to avoid any nasty bricks.
thank you for your help
strange. I went to the development section and installed the ICS version and used the FD26. I will make sure to readup

Good idea and enjoy, it's a fantastic ROM.
So I decided to try Cyan 9 and followed the instruction including adding EL 26 as it says in the instructions but it still shows EL29. If I decide to go back to Blu Kuban can I just use rom updater and flash the FE22 modem?
som roms come with kernels some without but most roms dont come with modems they leave it up to the flasher to flash modem seperately. blue kuban makes it ez by making it all available within the rom updater options for reduced bricking risk.

All roms come with kernels. They wouldn't boot if they didn't. I think you meant to say custom recovery.

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

Can you just mix and match a kernel with a custom ROM? Or how do I know if they are compatible, without nandroid+trial+error.
I was using stock/rooted jellybean ROM + franco kernel. I just flashed AOKP which includes it's own kernel (tuna-faux), but want to go back to franco.
Thanks for the help. I did try searching but did not find this information.
as long as the kernel supports the android version (4.0.4 or 4.1.1, etc) of the rom you are on, you're fine.

And are they backwards compatible? Can I use a 4.1.1 kernel with a 4.0.4 ROM?
Thanks for the reply!

Trial and error I'm afraid. I had AOKP and flashed Franco on top and it broke a couple minor things, like Settings - Storage would FC every time with this combination. So I assumed there is a reason AOKP came with tuna-faux, it was tested on it and made for it.
aokp and cyanogen come with a kernel for their code, i think you can't flash other kernel

I've rooted my HTC Evo 4G (not LTE). I tried to set up a swap partition and learned that i need a different kernel. Regardless of whether or not i use swap memory, I'd still like to find a good ROM/Kernel. I'd love ICS, but they all say that 4g and the camera doesn't work yet. I have trouble finding the most up to date information. Recommendations on ROMS / Kernels / combinations?

That's akin to asking what car with what engine is the best. You'll get 100's of different answers, so here's mine

Okay, I found the kernel ... now I need to find the rom, right? because if I flash the kernel into the stock rom it will freak out ... so it's just a matter of executing two zips from recovery, the rom then the kernel? or am i forgetting something?

As long as the kernel matches the stock rom you can use it. It needs to be a git gingerbread sense kernel of you are on 2.3.3 or 2.3.5 stock if you're on 2.2 stock needs to be a froyo kernel. If you go to something like cm7 or decks reloaded, anything aosp based make sure you use an aosp gingerbread kernel. If you try ics and want a custom kernel or jb make sure to use matching kernels or you'll end up in a bootloop and need to reflash the rom to fix the kernel
Edit: when flashing make sure to do the proper wipes. For a rom wipe everything but the SD card, for a kernel or a modification wipe only cache and dalvik cache. When flashing a rom and a kernel at the same time, wipe everything but SD for rom then wipe.cache and dalvik and flash the kernel

Yes cm7.2 is a rom, I always used tiamat 4.1.0 on cm7.2. The kernel will add different governors, clockspeeds for overclocking, change the scheduler and allow for undervolting. The kernel is what allows the rom to talk to the hardware and vice versa, it contains all of the drivers for the hardware.
