GB safe kernels - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

As long as you're only flashing GB roms and/or mods to those roms any kernel is safe. You only have to worry about the brick bug when flashing from an ICS kernel or when flashing an aosp rom from a twiz kernel that hasn't had the MMC_CAP_ERASE command edited out

How to update my ics rom help

I am currently running the epicTouchAOSPmod....my question is how can I update this rom with out loosing my current set up and having to start all over? I know that flashing a GB kernel isn't compatible with ics so it won't boot past the splash screen...any one know if there is a way for me to upgrade??

You need to odin a GB kernel, then upgrade, then flash one of ICS kernels.
ICS question.
If I'm running Calk's stock/rooted/fc07 v.1.0 and he releases a 2.0 version can I just flash over the upgraded version of fc07 without reverting back to GB el29?
OR
If I want to flash sfHub's fc15 ics rom can I just flash over ICS to ICS?
Thanks,
Pp.

You should be able to upgrade FC07 stock to FC07 modded by Calk.
You should probably wipe when flashing someone else's FC15.
But first odin to el29 kernel. I heard that you could brick the phone by using FC recoveries. I think even Rogue team suggest using EL29 kernels for flashing things over their own FC kernels.
Here, use this http://goo-inside.me/kernels/TeamRo.../rogue_ET-recoveryonly-1.1.4-rc0-odin.tar.md5 . This is an EL29 Rogue kernel I use.

How Do I Get CWM on FD19 & Any Newer Leaks?

Without having a dev do a repack of the Kernel?
Is there i way i can ODIN cwm recovery onto these new leaks of ICS as they are released?

No they have to do repacks its part of the kernel

Even if you could it is not a good idea to flash using repacks.
Edit: we won't get any official CWM for ICS until kernel source is released.

CM 9 to Blazer ICS

I don't wanna flash CM9 anymore since its very buggy for me and i wanna try out the Blazer ics rom so how would i make this transition.
I believe you use sfhubss 1 click e l 29 odin. Look in development for the thread.

What about flashing agat's ff18 recovery, calk's format all, then Blazer ICS?

Odin el26 kernel then calks format all the then flash blazer ics done easiest quickest and safest way hands down have done this many times on every new build release of blazer CM9 and aokp with no problems

Safe Flashing?

I just flashed to the Mijjz Rom found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1512419
I am currently wondering what a safe and battery friendly GB based kernel would be that I can flash things to this rom with. (I want to stay on this Rom, just flash a few zips onto it safely). Thanks!
Twrp hands down
Agat's 0.2.1 kernel built from source. It has the command removed that bricks our phones.

Honestly guy there are only 3 choices chris41 CWM, agats CWM or TWRP. You got to flip a coin or something and make a decision...

[Q] GB Kernel vs JB Kernel

If one is using a GB kernel and a JB Rom are you truly running JB.
Well no you won't be running JB because it wouldn't boot with a GB kernel

You tell me.
You used el26 kernel to flash cm10 but then cm10 came with its own kernel.

As they said. Once you flash a rom the kernel in that rom replaces the one that was on the device. CWM6 will be pretty easy to identify upon boot versus the CWM5 in the el26 kernel a quick boot into recovery will be a good sign for you. Could always go into the phone information and look at the current kernel.
