I want to install Fancy Kernal, i am running CM 10.1 right now. Can anyone tell me how to do this, (do i need to format all my data and start fresh or can i just wipe cash or dalvik cash.) If anyone acct. uses it- is it a good idea to switch?
Thanks
Firstly. Wrong section you've posted this. Secondly the instructions are given on the kernels page. Third? It's kernel not kernal, and it's cache, not cash.
Kernels are flash in CWM/TWRP and use, they're straightforward.

I am relaxed if anything. Because the higher ups may either just write this off as 'please use the search function' or answers already given on thread and have this locked.
like I said you need to read the thread, there are alot of things you need to consider. For one you're using Verizon, officially you don't have 4.2.2 or 4. 3 but thanks to cm or muzzy you have 4.3/4.2.2, you can't just flash off without knowing what your firmware is. 4.2.2 or 4.3, it will work for 4.2 just not 4.3

Well cm and regular roms usually have different ramdisks. Unless the kernel is universal. If I were you just flash the latest fancy, then boot up. If It loads fine, all and well but if it fails and loops you, just boot into recovery and flash CM again on top. That should save you if you get stuck.

Seems like a lot of stuff on the XDA links, but if you watch the video, he'll tell you exactly what to download. Some little things got updated with the files/names, but you should be able to figure it out.
Well welcome to the community just follow the information the users above posted and you will be fine.. The information can be overwhelming but but far from impossible.. Enjoy your device & wish you much luck
Thanks guys! I'm already learning a lot and look forward to learning more. I'll probably stay away from ICS roms until the source stuff is integrated to significantly reduce my chances of bricking.

The new kernel from the source is out. Its in the wiki section under kernels. Its safe for flashing ICS to ICS. They disable the "brick bug" So by all means if you want to try ICS it should be safe to do so. Make sure you follow the dev's instructions.

Ding is right.. And the other day way which was to mobile odin an el26 kernel and wipe from there to flash your ics rom.. But with the new source kernel out its all good... Just was throwing that other info at you
So what would be the method of flashing to an ICS ROM from a GB ROM now with the source kernel?

From my understanding as agats said in the link below. If you are on a GB rom just make sure it has clockwork mod kernel repack or it won't boot. Flash the kernel on there and flash your ics ROM

Hi, I am not new to rooting and custom ROMs but it has been a while and the forum has so many roms that it is hard to decide which is the most stable.
Would you guys please recommend to me the best/most stable/most customizable(cyanogen) AOSP rom for this phone? Basically I'd want the best CM9 rom and hopefully CM10 once its stable.
Thanks

1. I believe the difference between the to sections is that Original development is for AOSP based roms while android development is for roms based of stock or leaked firmware. That being said i dont think that many people understand that when they post and it has been kind of a Cluster f.
2. Are you currently on the OTA? you will need to odin a kernel that has a working recovery with it. If youre going to another rom right away it may be easiest to odin EL26 cwm, then load into recovery and flash because this will install the kernel/recovery packaged in the rom.
3. Ive used AOKP some and its pretty nice but i am one that likes to stay with a rom that still has activity. That way if i have problem there may be a chance that it is going to get fixed. But if you are ok with a few problems here and there go ahead and test out CM10 or sbrissens AOSP.

1. Yeah I was going towards that conclusion but I dont think people understand it either.
2. I already flashed CM9. I used the mobile odin method in this link: http://e4gtcm.blogspot.com/p/cm9-install-guide.html
I flashed the kernel and I got stuck on recovery and couldnt get back to my regular rom. I was just wanting to get a recovery then I mounted the storage and put CM9 and gapps and flashed away. Now im running CM9 and its flawless.
3. Can you link me sbrissens AOSP? Thanks!

Hi Everyone,
I was searching through the threads looking for the official stock Telus T989DTLUMC4 firmware update. I was able to find the Odin flashable version of the update but I was not able to find one that is flashable through recovery. So, I decided to make one and share with everyone here in the community.
This is the official Telus T989DTLUMC4 firmware downloaded from the SamMobile website. I have rooted, installed busybox, zipaligned and deodexed. I am currently running it on my T989D Telus Galaxy S 2 right now and it's running great.
I don't intend to add any additional tweaks/mods to this ROM. It is meant strictly for people that want the official TLUMC4 release but don't want to have to flash via odin and reroot.
Also, if any dev's or chefs want to use this as a base for their ROM please feel free to do so, you do not need to PM me to ask for permission. However, I do ask if you choose to use this base in your ROM please give me a thanks/thumbs up in the OP.
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (If followed exactly as below you should not have any issues)
- You must be rooted and have TWRP 2.4.4.0 custom recovery installed
- Download and place the Infamous Cache Wipe and Infamous Super Wipe scripts from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2235141 on either your internal or external SD Card. This will be needed for later. Thanks to @Jamison904 @thederekjay and Team Infamous for this fantastic tool.
- Reboot into TWRP 2.4.4.0 recovery and create a nandroid backup (Always do this step before flashing any ROM)
- Go to Wipe, Advanced Wipe and select Data, System,Cache and Dalvik (then swipe to wipe)
- Press the home button and select the Infamous Super Wipe Script
- Click on add another zip file and choose Infamous Cache Wipe
- Click on add another zip file and choose TelusT989DTLUMC4RootedDeodexed.zip
- Swipe to install all 3 files
- Reboot (First boot may take approx 5mins, be patient)
- Wait 10mins after first boot and allow phone to sit (do not log into your account)
- Reboot again and setup your account
- Enjoy

I actually just downloaded the stock firmware for the Tmobile version today, was going to build a Stock, rooted, deodexed version for the TMo guys and gals as well. When it's up I guess you can give this one and the TMo one a try and see which you like best. Typically Telus has less bloat but also doesn't have wifi calling.

I was going to suggest that as well, but needed/wanted to have yours or Jamison's permission before suggesting. :good:
No permission needed my friend...as long as no one reposts them they are free for anyone to use prior to installing a stock 4.1.2 ROM. Feel free bud!

If you are still wanting to run JB check out one of the one click Installers. I suggest the rooted wipe all version. Remember the wipe version will format your internal sdcard so back up anything you need first. These will get you back to the JB file system and got should be able to flash any of the ROMs available here. Good luck
I've done every jb one click ..rooted, unrooted full restore with Odin on my PC. Not one will work. Just stays in boot loop. But ics and gb flash just fine
