Disclaimer: I've been searching on the Q&A section for a similar question and in the general section and I haven't been able to find a relevant answer.
So I was recently running CNA latest version 3.6.6 but a few things were not working so after about a month I came back to my stock backup and of course got the OTA notification, if you haven't figured out yet what I would like to know is what kind of update is this. Will it update the system partition completely, data and cache or just a small update to a partition specifically?
I would like to know if the update will go through without issues even though I am rooted, using Franco kernel and custom recovery and if will need my /data partition.
Thanks in advance

Hello
I am using codename 3.6.6 rom now
I was trying to flash leankernel 1.7 which was released today
However, after I flash it, my phone didn't turn on
I did wipe cache, dalvic cashe, and fix permision after I flashed
please help me! I want to install a new kernel
Or please recomend me some good kernels
Thank you
Need a kernel that's compatible with the older version of the ROMs. There are new fixes in the cm code that will screw things up if you flash a newer kernel. You need to go in and wipe system and try to reflash cna ROM and home for the best. Otherwise you need to wipe everything (data,system,cache) and start over.
Read a little more in the kernel section before applying. If did make a back up then you're in luck.

Transfer a ROM and COMPATIBLE kernel to your phone or sdcard. Do a FULL wipe (factory reset, cache and dcache). Install the ROM and kernel.
If that still doesn't work, use an ODIN image and flash via Odin. That'll solve the problem for sure.

Are you sure that kernel is for the sgh t999??
Sent from my SGH-T999V using xda premium
pretty sure. do u have any suggestion or mayb a link on where to get a basic jb kernel and rom that is know to work. just so sick of the aokp the camera sux
There might be a box that you need to uncheck "md5"
Here. DL the jb stock kernel here. There is a cwm package zip so you don't have to flash the whole ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1892297

Installation 7 usually means it was a bad download. Have you tried just restoring a backup or flashing Odin stock.

I'm not sure if its just my phone, had this problem for a while now, but when it occurs, i usually just flash another rom, but basically, when it comes to my rom and flashing a rom that comes with a custom kernel, its a no go what so ever, its force close central, and boot loops and all that, no idea why, but my phone just simply doesn't play nice with any custom kernels at all, started with Jellybomb, use to love it, worked perfect, no problems, then when it updated to i believe 10, 11, not precise on what version, and he used a custom kernel, then bam, tried everything, no luck, and couldnt use that rom with my phone anymore, or any other rom that comes with custom kernels, and still cant, and i guess its time to mention it to verify if this happens to anyone else.

where would i find that?, and what specifically does it do?
i dont want to hijack a thread but also dont want to start a new one since there is this one. has any cspire s3 users flashed a different kernel and had success with it. im on the latest pacman rom and want a diff kernel. ive flashed one before and got a softbrick. just curious.
@ IonIcone, Keep the thread to the user that's asking the question.
Search the whole forum first / search it online, if it's a no go on both parts, then start a question
thread of your owns.
@ ParkourKid93
KernelCleaner can be downloaded here.

scripted by mattrb, you can thank him for that file.
When using kernels make sure it's for the right version
JB or AOSP. and also make sure its for the right version
4.1.x or 4.2.x
Usually when you're also installing a rom with a dif kernel ( and you CAME from a rom with STOCK kernel )
you'll need to wipe cache and dalvik cache, and re-set permissions via Custom Recovery.
If those don't work, search the original ROM thread for a [Q] of the same as yours and see if there was a fix / reply for that.
If all else fails, contact the dev of the rom with your specific issue.
I've been switching between kernels and JB versions and i've never ran into this issue. Anthrax, K747, Agat's and Stock Optimized.
Have you tried odin flash restore to stock LJ7 and re-installing the rom as well?

I actually tried that same exact kernel cleaner this morning, I searched and found it, had no luck with it though, and for the 'choosing the right kernel', it comes built in with the ROM, its the jelly bomb 14 ROM I'm referring to, also did wipe both caches and fixed permission, still no luck, I want to believe its my phone itself though, because I know it wouldn't be the ROM, I deff trust the ROM and developer obviously, and used his work before, but that's when he didn't use a custom kernel, but when he included the custom kernel built in, I believe jellybomb 10, or 11, then it was the last time I could of flashed any of his Roms, I do remember having similar problems with other Roms that uses custom kernels also, the only kernel my phone plays great with, is the stock optimized, and the cyanogenmon kernels, but ktoons and agats, and even anthrax (when I was using freeza fregs3, just went no go on my device

My apologies if this has been asked before. But from my understanding the Google edition still has all the touch wiz framework. I was Wondering if you had to Odin back to stock in order to flash a modified stock Rom? I had to do this on my s3 because it always gave me problems. This is an issue for me now because my hard drive on my laptop is fried and have no access to Odin besides mobile Odin.

A modified stock ROM will be packaged to flash in recovery. Just be sure to properly wipe since you will be going back to TW.
So all I have to do is do a super wipe, system and all. And I should be good to go? Can I nandroid back to my current set up if I don't like the Google edition Rom? Or will that cause complicatIons that will require me to Odin back to stock?
I know it's a dumb question. But I want to Bork my Device

Nandroid is fine, and doesn't need any wiping, it does it before the restore, but I wipe anyways.
If you just want to flash a different ROM, for going from ROM to different ROM, it's best to:
Factory Reset
Wipe both Caches
Format /system
Flash ROM or ROM and gapps if it's AOSP
To upgrade a current ROM to an updated version, if the base version of Android hasn't changed, you can dirty flash, which is the exact steps, minus the factory reset.
Okay thanks, I was just curious. Because I can't currently restore from Odin because I don't have a pc.
