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..
Did you flash the kernel fix that slim says you need to flash in order to run another kernel? Guess you didn't...

See that now, thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.
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!

If your using the I9300, i would check the thread for that phone. Otherwise you risk bricking it flashing something from this one.. This is for the US Variant SPH-L710.
Go here for all the I9300 stuff, Please save yourself a bricked phone. Thanks! http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1563

Customization? I thought you wanted stock...
Anyway. thederekjay(retired, but ROMS can still be found), Rushing, ptmr3, and Jamison904 are probably the best developers on the board. Just about anything from these guys will give you a slight twist off of stock and are suitable for DD or wife usage.
Caveat: Rushing's ROMS are odexed.
thanks man. i just wanted to have a stock rom and maybe mess with it. but i'll just use JK6 for the time being.

it better be touchwiz and be for this device.. LoL I dont know for sure but I bet Jedi would work or faux's kernel... no guarantees though, wait for someone to answer that knows LoL or google it... I never have played around with telus ROMs and TMO kernels together... it should work but again not sure. if you test it let us know the result.

On ICS they would generally mess up the auto rotation, but work otherwise.
Rushing, thanks a lot for this, will be flashing soon.
Any indication the new infamous wipes are needed for flashing the telus 4.1.2? (versus TMo?)

Thanks Rushing. Been waiting to try this, but didn't want to have to go through Kies or ODIN and reroot. Knew someone would come through.
Thanks, a lot. Maybe people can use the telus one for the base of their ROMs now. It's clean of bloat, tethering is native so you don't have to mess around, etc. I mean it's pure TW. I know most custom ROMs are debloated. But where TMO is concerned it can never be clean enough.

I agree, but TMO has wifi calling so that base is quite popular, but I am sure there will be a nice custom telus rom eventually.

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

Take a backup of the EFS by using the tool here. Then it'll be easy for you to restore.

I know that, but... I wanna do it the easy way, without having to backup & all...
Anyway, guess I'm gonna have to do that.
One q. Now, as I am on XXDME4, if I ever switch to another modem which changes EFS... if I revert back to XXDME4, will it be okay?
(still got a lot to read on this thing, that's why I'm asking for now)

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.

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.

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.

if your bootloader/modem is nj1 , which i assume you mean by recovery , you cannot downgrade !! it will brick your phone. perhaps using a custom kernel would help.

One thing to keep in mind is that there are custom TouchWiz kernel and custom AOSP kernels. Don't put a custom AOSP kernel on a TouchWiz ROM, or vice versa. You can sometimes find both kernels in the same post if a dev maintains both. So pay attention to which you download based on the ROM you are running.

Sure you can install a custom kernel.
The stock rom is a TouchWiz based rom, so you would want a TouchWiz (TW) kernel. You can find kernel threads in the dev subforum. I am using the kernel that came with my rom and have not experimented with it or any others. This leaves me with no recommendation as to what would be better for you. All I can say is read the threads and see which ones work with the stock ROM.
Have you check to see what is using the most battery during the times your phone is running hot? This may give you an idea of what is causing the problem.
