First of all. This is development section. Not big problem section.
Secound. Not exactly sure which kernel you mean, but if you are going to flash one and the same Kernel on ICS and JB then you will have problems.
And last but not least. If you donĀ“t read the forum rules, nor for which ROM the kernel you are using is supposed to be, you will get even bigger problems.

It's a known issue caused by your display. It affects CM10.1 and CM10. It's a kernel issue. Please try to use the General section for such topics.

Maybe I understood this wrong, but as you say it is only related to CM10+ ROMs. But if he is saying he is having the same issue with a CM9 based ROM, there is only one possibility to get it there. This is by flashing a CM10 based kernel onto a CM9 based ROM.

ckckckckkc,
read first post in every thread u visiting carefully dude.

just have to say one thing. the white screen issue was fixed already on a certain 10.1 kernel.

I don't think you can use such combination. Never tried but I don't think you can boot up like this.
So anyway, this is not a rom issue. Maybe I misunderstood. But the best way to avoid these issues is by making a clean installation of the ROM. Always.

I tried it already and it worked. Just this will break a lot of things or make them not to work correctly. So either he flashed the CM10.1 kernel after reverting back to the ICS based OneOfAKind ROM, or simply flashed this rom over the AOIP without doing a clean installation.
Either way. This is not a reason to start a new topic about his issue in the development section. This is a kind of ignorance by not following the forum rules, not reading the installations instructions and not posting into the correct threads just to get more attention.

Best AOSP 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!

[Q] Can't flash KT747 kernel on Slim Bean Rom?

I'm running Slim Bean 3.1.0 on my SGS3. Recently, I've been trying to flash the AGAT and KT747 kernels on my phone, but with no success.
I've tried flashing kernel,wipe cache/dalvik, rebooting, and then installing the Slim Rom file over it.
Anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong?

98% Sure you are trying to mix an AOSP based ROM with a TW (Stock) type Kernel. That doesn't typically work. There is an option for the AOSP version of Ktoonsez kernel though that _should_ be a better fit with that ROM.
Have fun and continue to read up *Grin*
The thing is, I'm almost positive I downloaded the AOSP version for the KT747 kernel

That's a good start, the AGAT says LJ7 based in the Post, leading one to believe it is for TW ROMS. And on the Ktoonsez it does have a download link for either TW or AOSP. One you are looking for should be named "KT747-Kernel-AOSP-JB-SPR-12-11-2012.zip". Verify that and speak up again if you are still having issues.
Yes, I'm certain that was the file I flashed, because I remembered noting that the file was 7.72MB prior to downloading.
Also, I'm sure that the Slim Rom is compatible with the KT747 kernel because several posts were made on the thread saying that
the battery life was amazing, which made me wonder if I was doing something wrong.

Reading your original post, The order should go 1) ROM then 2) Kernel ... Then Wiping Cache and Dalvik-Cache (And other wipes if needed). Reason for this is if you flash the Kernel first, then the Rom you are over writing the custom Kernel with whatever is packaged with the ROM.
That is the only other obvious thing I see at this point. Hope that helps..

Please report back on how you like it, and if you really notice any differences.
It dropped 1% in approximately 30 minutes, half of the time the screen was just on, other half I left it on my desk (all while connected to Wifi).
My settings are 96/1998 on ktoonservative.
In my opinion, so far its amazing as compared to other AOSP roms I've tried.
hi guys! i've got the same problem, can't change the kernel in my i9300.. could you please tell me where i can find the kernel fix that you mentioned above?? Thanks!

[Q] $100 to the man who fixes my wifi

Try another kernel ? Make sure you use aosp version of the kernel. What exactly is the problem with wifi ?
Sent from my GT-N7100
I tried the Zoot's wipe you suggested earlier, didn't fix the problem. Tried a few different kernels, all bootlooped.
The wifi takes a very long time scanning for networks, and won't connect to any network (unsecured, WEP, WPA, nothing). Works perfect on roms mentioned in first post, but not on 4.1.2 based PA.
Why do you want pa ? For per-app-dpi ? Well that can be done on normal phone also.

Try to change the flash root file. Look for cwm6-root-n7100 and flash it through Odin. It should work fine after that. Good Luck =D
Wow $100. Just trying to help only.
Odin back to original stock rom. Check all connection its ok or not.
Check ur note 2 version *#1234# and also imei *#06#.
Flash pa according to ur note2 version.
Check ur imei.
Flash kernel n modem based on ur note2 version.
I've tried all these things and none of them make wifi work for me on cm10 4.1.2 based roms. I don't think the problem is as simple as changing a setting or root/recovery, because simply flashing a different rom (TW 4.1.2 or 4.2 based PA) fixes the wifi issue entirely.
The $100 offer still applies to any developer who knows what the problem is and can provide files & specific instructions on how to fix the wifi connection issues I have with 4.1.2 based PA roms. Until then I'm gonna run an unofficial PA3 rom, with zero wifi issues.
Try this
First do a mega wipe.
Then flash the latest stock rom for your country.
Then do a mega wipe again.
Then flash aosp kernel(redpill or uneak)
Then flash pa .
Then flash gapps.
Try all the aosp kernels.
Try previous versions of the rom.
Try different versions of gapps.

In Settings it says the baseband is N7100XXDLK7. This is probably because I've since flashed a stock rom from Dr. Ketan's thread. The label on the retail box says N7100ZNDXSG (but it doesn't say that's the baseband).
Are there AOSP kernels made for specific basebands?
Wifi works perfectly with every rom I've tried except anything CM10 4.1.2 based. The screen tear happened the same way with PA 2.99, and the same neak kernel fixed it, but there was never a problem with wifi on 2.99
Have you flashed isolated baseband from working rom?
If you have stock rom, extract tar and you will find modem.bin and flash it using odin for 'phone' tab
Just for safety make nandroid backup before it.

Isolated, no. Are you saying that flashing a rom zip via CWM overwrites the existing baseband?
At this point, the unofficial PA 3.1 is working for me where the official PA 2.99 wasn't.....so the $100 offer is no more. Thanks everyone for trying to help me fix the problem, but now I've got the phone set up how I wanted with another rom.

[Q] Can I flash any kernel after flashing a rom?

I use cm10 build 6, can I go ahead and pick a kernel to flash over the stock cm kernel?
Well the kernel you want must be compatible with the rom you are using and your device. For example if you are on CM10 you must flash kernels built for CM10/jelly bean. Otherwise you will get boot loops.
There might be some kernels for CM10 in the development section of Galaxy wonder.

It's better to stay with the same Kernel, from my point of view, I guess if you shared with us why do you wanna change the Kernel, there might be a solution for your problem, a friend of mine Flashed a different kernel and it was supposed to be compatible, but still he had problems and he flashed everything back again.
I wanted to use other governors. Btw I flashed a new kernel and it seems fine as of now

Good for you, as long as everything is working smoothly, then good luck with the new Kernel:good:
is it really just limited by CM9/CM10? Like if I am using acro's cm9 RC6 and the kernel was released after RC7 was released, maybe some of the extra features in RC7 causes a slightly different coding for the kernel which of course may cause problems if you use it on RC6?
also i suppose there's no need for clearing data/cache, fixing permission etc when flashing kernel right?
sorry if I'm not supposed to ask questions in a question. I just feel this is relevant to the title and i feel that it is better when people can just read this post and learn more about kernels. The list of how-tos in the dev section has not much details on kernels

What TW ROM should I install and NOT mess up the EFS?

Hi guys.
The title pretty much says it all.
I currently have the XXDME4 modem installed (went to this from XXDLJ2 and... I have no idea what modem I was using prior to that) and am using Slim Bean ROM. But, I want to give a TouchWiz ROM a try, to test something sound related (5 minutes), then be done with it and return to AOSP based ROMs and such. With all this modem/EFS talk... I am very confused. Don't know what modem/ROM base I am safe to go to now...
So. What TouchWiz ROM should I install and be free of any EFS ****ed up things?
Thanks in advance!
If u r happy with this modem, install a rom like assasin which gives you option whether to keep the old modem and kernal or to change it. If you dont change the modem, efs wont be messed up I fee

Ya. If you lose your EFS anytime at all, Revert back to XXDME4 and restore this image.
There is no other easy ways than this. This would just take seconds and you're already rooted.
As mentioned by people before, you're fine as long as the ROMs you're flashing doesn't mess up with modem.

That's easy, download any rom, enter the archive with some Zip tool and replace the modem part with your current one. Or if you feel up to it, edit installation script to not flash modem. You can do the same with kernel so it is not flashed at all. That way you can use any rom without fear
Most roms are in fact compatible with wide variety of kernels / modems (even if some are included in installation - they are tested by developer to be fully compatible) so you should have no problems. For your information you can currently use all roms that are from ME6, MF2 and MG1 family - as Adam's kernel author mentioned, the compatibility problem lies in changed kernel ramdisk and he uses old one so you can flash his kernel over any TW rom without fear of breaking EFS.

For your information you can currently use all roms that are from ME6, MF2 and MG1 family - as Adam's kernel author mentioned, the compatibility problem lies in changed kernel ramdisk and he uses old one so you can flash his kernel over any TW rom without fear of breaking EFS.

Yeah...
Ok. So, as I now am on XXDME4, what other modems am I safe to go to? DME1, DMF2, DMG1...? Anything, EXCEPT for DME6?!

Anything before dme6. Dmf2 and dmg1 are after so not safe if you don't want the efs headaches.

F***. Now I don't know what's after and what's before. Can you please tell me what's before...?
It's hard because even in the modem thread, there is not a list with all modems in chronological order...

Samsung version naming is alphabetical followed by a hexadecimal suffix. Bmf1 is older than dmb2 which is older than dmb5 which is older than dmc3.

It's easy: rom names are created from years and months and inmonth revisions
so LL7 is revision 7 of December 2012 rom
A-January
B-February
C-March
D-April
E-May
F-June
G-July
and so on...
also
A-2001
B-2002

So anything before ME1 is really safe. Best would be to flash stock for example XXDMC2 and on that flash any new custom rom with modem and kernel flashing disabled.
Oh... I think I understand...

I'll try finding a custom ROM DMC.

But hang on a second. What if I flash a new modem? I do not intend to stick to TW - I just wanna test something sound related cause NO ONE ELSE WOULD then go back to Slim/CM etc.
If I use the very latest modem (whichever that may be) and use them on CM... Would there be a problem?

Not from CM side CM mostly does not care what version of modem you have, and it's not the modem that is creating all those problems, but newer kernels (ME6 and newer). So don't touch the modem at all or flash it if you want. But don't flash newer kernel ME6, MF1 or MG1. Flash Perseus 36.3 kernel, do it immediately after flashing rom, without restarting recovery, because once you run new kernel even one time you have a problem.

So... I can flash a ME6 ROM but not boot it, and flash this older modem again + Perseus THEN reboot and I'll be safe?
