You have to use dsixda kitchen to unpack the boot.img . Then replace the existing zImage with your one. Take the bcm4329.ko file into System/lib/modules and replace it.
Hope it helps
Please Hit thanks If I helped

if I have a custom ROM zip file .. how do I make a flashable kernel zip file??
wow.. no body knows how to do this??
I tried unziping the Rom and look for the zimage but no luck. So now I'm thinking maybe its different for the evo
You'd have to unpack the boot.img. I use dsixda's ROM kitchen to do it when I need to, check his thread and third post I believe for faq's where he tells you how to extract a kernel from a ROM and repack it into your boot.img.
Thanx ill try that
Hello there,
I am trying to put new kerenel in rom zip(i mean that the rom will include the kernel without flashing it[zip with rom+kernel]).
I tried to take the system/lib folder&files and put it in the zip, and when i flash the rom i get the WiFi error. how do i put new kernel in rom(zip file).
thx and sorry for my bad english :X
Edit:
I extracted the boot.img in linux ubontu but i dont know how to edit the kernel. i tried to extract the gz file but linux says: not in gz format.
what to do?
help me pls
the kernel itself shuld be a zip file
I know that but i want to change the kernel in a ready rom(zip file). I need that it will be ready to install(the rom with the new zip) how do i do this.?
help me plsss
Just take the boot.img and bcm4328.ko from the /system/lib/modules/ folder in the kernel zip and drop them into the Rom in the same folders. Simpuls
dude

Upload you boot.img & kernel files, il pack them for you
you could try dsixda kitchen if you have cygwin or a linux distro
after you do it for me can you teach me pls how do u do this?
Thx!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(You king!!)
i must know how to that
ty man!
download:
http://rapidshare.com/files/450368403/kernel_boot.rar
Edit:
I have already extracted the boot.img.
I tried to put the zImage in boot.img-ramdisk forder and pack it again- but the device stuck at splash screen. i tried to gunzip the kernel gz but linux says that the file not in gz format.
how do i change the kernel? pls guide me
ty
Only you have to move files included in this rar I made 4 u to rom zip you like to use the new kernel (only for sense&HD roms)
Edit: But be careful with this CFS's .28 kernels because sometimes doesn't boot
First Neo, thank you very much i will try it.
Second, how did you do it? i must know. i unpacked the boot.img. then what?
And which kernel is better CFS or BFS?
Thank you!
Unpacked the rom boot.img, renamed zImage to boot.img-kernel and repack boot.img.
All done with Kitchen of dsixda
A second option is; install kernel zip, do a nandroid, catch boot.img from sdcard nandroid (it will have a strong size), go to kitchen, unpack and repack to get the real size (because the size of boot.img extracted with nandroid is bad for people who have bad sectors in boot)
I like more CFS, is depending of tastes, but in .28 CFS doesn't work as good it should. Try all and your taste will decide.
Neo, thank you very very much!!
You and Lee helped me a lot! Thank you!!!
What you need .. ?
->Cygwin
-> DSIXda Kitchen
-> A windows/ Linux environment.
-> MagicISO
-> Base ROM --NOT CUSTOM ROM-- --AN OFFICIAL ROM--
-> 7-zip
Download official firmware .. !!
Extraction of RFS (Basic thing)
Well, THis is the First thing you should do.
Here are the steps:
-> Download a Firmware of your choice from the above link.
-> If you Firmware is in .zip format, be sure to extract the FW to a folder.
-> In the folder, you should find a PDA file ( The file which use put in the PDA place when you flash using ODIN)
-> Install 7-Zip if you dont have it, if you have it...Proceed to next step
->Right Click on the PDA file and open the archive using 7-zip.
-> Now, you can see a file named "system.rfs" or "factoryfs.rfs" or "systemFS.rfs", just copy the file to your C:\ (YOU CAN COPY IT ANYWHERE. I am taking C:\ as my base location)

you can use that post for spesific info about SGY. for an instance, you mentioned about system.rfs in your 1st post. well...SGY's stock rom doesn't have that kind of file. instead, it have system.img which somehow cannot extracted by magicISO. the common method used to build the kernel is a little bit differet too. you may check sgy.creed post about build a kernel. his method is not work for SGY but you can find a proper guide created by irfanbagus on 1st page.

it must be having .rfs !
Wat does rfs mean ?
File system(root) so it must be having .. While flashing firmware through odin does it downloading system.rfs ??
Sent From my lovely FIT..... !! lOvE u Fit
and magic iso can extract .img file
Sent From my lovely FIT..... !! lOvE u Fit
not every device has same structure on stock firmware. some devices have system.rfs but some of them have system.img instead. as a prove, if you use dsixda kitchen, you'll see an option to extract system files from system.img file. you may also download a sgy's stock firmware from doky78's post to verify it.
btw, before you continue I'd like to suggest to make a sgy rom by yourself. no need to make a modified one. you only need to make a flashable stock rom.
factoryfs.rfs

SGY does not have factoryfs.rfs like other Galaxys.
but magicISO works on SGY odinized stock ROM tar files, when untarred. stock ROM is odexed though. deodexing gives you some smali/baksmali error messages.
lol...this old thread. forget it, mai. this guy know nothing about rom development. most of his guide is never could be used to build a rom for sgy.
OK so now people know this thread is not very useful. just to not waste anybody's time
And I thought this was a new thread
Hi folks.. I want make a custom rom made by me (basic) stock based, but deleting some apps or anything for have more ram. I had the S2 and I have used the dsixda kitchen for deodex, edit the update-script and compiling the flasheable zip for CWM.
Anyone knows if the dsixda kitchen is compatible? where can I find the stock ROM IMM76I (4.0.4)
Thx in advance :good:
i dont have an answer for you , but i just want to say best of luck to get something started :good:

you can build it yourself from aosp
The format for each ROM must be one of the following:
- system.img + optional boot.img/lib.img (e.g. stock ROM or Nandroid)
- ZIP file for a custom ROM (e.g. update.zip)
- ZIP file containing *.img (e.g. stock rom.zip)
- ZIP file containing shipped ROM in SYSTEM + BOOT folder format
- Working folder made with this kitchen (e.g. WORKING_old_rom)

you can download the stock roms from here :
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
extract the image and move system.img and boot.img to your working folder.. should work fine just like it did with your S2
