I rooted using zedomax root method. My question is can I use CM7 with the zedomax kernel or do I need to revert back to the stock eg30 kernel?

Where are you going to get CM7 from?
We don't have cm7 yet. Unless your a tester Orsomething you would have to ask the cm7 team.

Lol something tells me he was just going to download CM7 from the I9100 or a random phone not knowing the difference. Someone that would be lucky enough to test a CM7 alpha would surely never post a question such as this.

if there was a device profile for you guys id compile nightlies for ya, however im not gunna take each nightly and edit it after compiling for use with us cellular, sorry i dont have that kind of time. if you had a device profile like this https://github.com/EpicCM/android_device_samsung_epic4gtouch then i could merge it in and add it to my build script, would take it maybe 20 mins extra to make it :/
my suggestion is to get a modified device repo going and then you could have a from source build
Downloading 6/19... so I just flash this straight over 6/18 from recovery? Should I wipe everything beforehand????
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Looks like the nightly is done uploading. ~35 downloads while the md5 was still changing (good half a dozen were mine) ;-)
Sorry if I ask this....might be common knowledge, oh well. I'm on 6-18 nightly atm, if I want to update to 6-19 (I'm already using goo.im from the play store, and already dl the rom) can I just use the included safe CW from 6-18 to flash? If so, After flashing do I need to do anything else? Thanks again for the help..

for those of you that have flashed the 6/19, it's still FF11 based right?
I thought you guys might wanna run FG31 kernel with custom recovery
so you can flash what ever you want without changing kernel.
Here is repack (like good old days) of FG31 with my tREC_v0.2.1
1. FG31_AGAT.zip flash in recovery.
2. FG31_AGAT.tar flash with ODIN or Mobile ODIN.
I have tested this repack with my tFF18 rom and it works.
So far no problems.
Hope you guys will enjoy it.
Thanks and nice work.

This kernel has a safe recovery so there is no risk to brick phone from recovery point.
We don't have a source for kernel itself so I can't tell if it's safe.
Also my recovery will use updater-binary packed into rom zip file and if binary not safe and has emmc bug you
still can brick your phone.
However you can safely backup and restore using this recovery. Wipe the phone. Do factory reset and flash any other zip file that doesn't have ICS updater binary and/or doesn't have format() command in updater script.
How is the FG31 radio
Thank you Agat for yet another option for us all.

I think you're thinking of his FF18 kernel, this one is FG31
I think the FF18 kernel is on v4.2, and the recovery is on v2.1 is how I see it..
ie, I label my backups according to kernel & recovery.. so with the latest FF18 kernel, I put v4.2.2.1 at the end.. just so I can keep track..

That's what I was thinking...in a basic-sense. I wasn't sure if there were 3 or 4 "major" differences, or if it was just the FF18 vs. FG31 change, or something else, or ... Was curious, more than anything else. Thanks sj [& agat, of course. ]
I've been running this kernel and fg31 modem with Blazer 1.5 for two days with no problem.
Thanks a bunch for the great work .

Hi, and thanks to whoever takes the time to help out,
I would like to make the jump to PhantomPhreak53 CM10, and i am currently using a GB rooted ROM nothing special, and i'd like to know which kernel to download from Chris41g's list of kernels, he has so many and all have similar/different names, Please Help
Those kernels are only for cm9. Won't work with cm10. Just use the one that's packaged with the rom.

I was curious because he specifically said to make sure to have a safe kernel and then links to the page so i assumed he intended for Chris41g's kernel to be what he had in mind for flashing his ROM, so your basically saying, i'm good to go without installing a kernel for good measure ?
No off you want a safe kernel download el29 direct boot and install it via Odin and then use that to flash cm10.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
All GB Kernels are inherently safe so flash away. The new Kernel will be installed as part of the new Rom install

El29 direct boot was made specifically for flashing ics based roms. You can find it on the epic touch cm9 blog. Just do a Google search for it.

New E4GT user here. I'm rooted and on EL29, what is the latest build or baseband number and how do you update to it?
I want to update to Jelly Bean, but I understanding that with this phone, you can't just flash any ROM you want, correct? It has to "match" your build or baseband number?

Latest "Official" OTA Thread by RWilco - No root and rooted links.
Latest stock Leak thread by RWilco Best stock leak imo..
As far as JB builds go, my only suggestion is to read each thread of the rom that interests you in it's entirety. Mixed reviews and different issues, different ways of flashing.. etc..
baseband = modem - mix and match to find the best performance for you and your phone. You can run a ICS generation modem on a GB build, and vice versa.
Check out the op in the Modem Repository by RWilco. How to flash and all the links provieded there.
Build and kernel match (usually) based on the rom. Just follow the Op's instructions on the rom thread. read for any issues etc.
Thanks for the great info!
So, when I flash a new ROM, does it comes with a matching kernel and baseband? I'm still a bit confusing about that.
Most or all Roms come with kernel, some, if you use Odin will include modem. I usually double check and flash the modem that I want via cwm...
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Depending on the dev of the rom.
Yes, most include a kernel in a custom rom since it is the easiest way to keep what they build to an error free environment.
You may find a custom "rom only" but that is rare.
Stock roms (vendor leaked or "official" ) you will find complete sets in one clicks and tars. Then, usually, you will find it in separate pieces in the reference section. In Rwilcos posts, they are found in post 2.
With your goal of going to JB, you dont have to go to the latest stock.
You can go to a custom recovery, like el26 cwm or a safe Agat recovery, and try out a JB build. There are several good ones in the dev section.

I'm on PA2.1 and its definitely daily driver worthy idk what JB roms you've seen that aren't. Everything I'm PA works like it should and its based off of sbrissens aosp and phantomphreaks cm10 vendor trees. Which would make both of those roms just as stable if not more so than PA, and aokp JB is based off the same vendor trees so it should be just as good.

Remember to just keep it simple, "New E4GT user here" you should sample some ics and see how that works for you and understand how to go back to your "original state"before you go into jb territory being that ics thought not perfect yet has more stability than jb at the present. Like Mo said read and reread before you take the plunge.

I've been using PhantonPfreek's CM10 ROM for a week now. While not perfect yet, it is a Daily Driver. Most of the major bugs have been handled. currently Bluetooth and headset volune is a problem. This ROM is very close to becoming an official CM rom according to Phantom. i came over from AOKP Mil6. This ROM is its equal. Of course JB features added icing to the cake. I'd say have at it. just make sure that you are on a safe kernal to flash from.
