[Q] How can I install a kernel? (please don't kill me)

Hi everybody!
I tried to search everywhere, but I can't find it.
Does anybody know where can I find a tutorial/guide to install a kernel (voodoo if possible) un our SGS flashed with darky's 8.1?
Every info i found is uncomplete or requires certain things I've never done before.
thanks in advance!

Flash .zip(kernel) with clockwork mod recovery like you flashed darky's rom.

Every kernel developer writes installation instructions in first post. Well,
*if you have rooted phone with ClockWorksMode recovery you just download one of CWM zip files of kernel of your choice and go to recovery and install zip file from there.
*If your phone has 2e recovery do the same as above but rename your zip file to update.zip and place it in root of sd card and flash update from recovery
*if your phone has 3e recovery you need to use Odin - download odin version of kernel of your choice, unzip it to get .tar file, add this tar file to PDA field of Odin, start your phone in download mode and flash it from Odin.
You can also use "SGS kernel flasher" from the market. It is simpler (recommended). Use CWM versions of kernels or unpack zImage somewhere.

You do understand that Darky's Rom comes with a kernel (Voodoo Advanced without OC/UV I believe).
You can check it's enabled by enterring recovery mode on your phone by turning it off and then turning it back on with the combination of Vol-down + Home + Power and then the appropriate sub-menu.
If you want to install a new one, download the CWM (ClockWork Mod) version of the kernel and flash it through the same Clockwork Recovery.

three excellent responses, each one better than the other
Thank you, thank you very much !

Sorry to be picky but its vol up, home and power.
Vol down gives you download mode.

Yes, as Zeroundead said, if you already have Darky's ROM, you just reboot into recovery, and enable it.
Darky's Version 8.1 has Speedmod kernel.
Here's a video of enabling the lagfix in version 8.0.

[Q] Cyanogen Mod Question

Hey.im kinda new to android...i was using 2.3.3 gingerbr .
i was tryin to root my phone and get the cyanogen mod on it. through this link
i have a galaxy s i9000.after i flashed the zImage kernal. my phone is stuck on the start screen that shows the galaxy S logo.it stays that way . i can go to download and recovery mode though. but i really don't know what to do .. im a noob.your help will be appreciated
i can't post the link here for some reason.. just google "cyanogen mod galaxy s i9000" and youll see a link saying cyanogen wiki something.. and then you will see steps to get cyanogen.. please help

I find it easier flashing CM7 coming from froyo. What you need to do is flash JPU then flash speedmod kernel k13c (for the recovery) then go into recovery, then mounts and storage, format system, data, cache and datadata. Also wipe dalvik cache and wipe cache partition, then flash CM7. Holla if you need more help

Ok dude, download XXI9000JPU, latest nightly of CM7 and Speedmod kernel k13c before you do anything. Once you have all them (if your on a custom rom now, do a nandroid backup) if not don't worry coz you'll lose settings and apps anyways. Power off your device and put it into download mode (Vol down + home + power) then open Odin, and connect your device (a yellow box in Odin will confirm your phone has been recognized) extract JPU (if you download it from samfirmware.com the password will be samfirmware.com, exactly how its written) then in Odin in the left of the screen, check repartition, and in the .pit section, browse the JPU folder for the .pit file, in the PDA section browse the JPU file for the file with PDA in the name, the same with phone except it will be called "Modem" in the JPU file, CSC will be called CSC in the JPU file, once all files are in the correct place, and repartition is ticked, click start to begin flashing froyo. Once done, and the setup process has completed, make sure CM7 is on your internal SD card, power off your phone and put into download mode again, now with the speedmod kernel, make sure your download the Odin version from touristinparadise.com (it will be a .tar file) connect your phone to Odin again, untick repartition, and in the PDA slot, browse for the speedmod kernel, and press start, let your device boot fully, then power off and enter recovery mode (Vol up + home + power) release all buttons as soon as the Samsung logo appears. In recovery navigate to mounts and storage, format system, data, cache and datadata. Then go back and go to advanced speedmod and wipe dalvik cache, then go back and wipe cache partition. Then install zip from SD card, then choose zip, then browse for CM7 and install. Once done, go back and reboot device now your all set

Do you have samsung captivate (at&t branded galaxy s)? You can't flash I9000 (international galaxy s) roms to captivate.

If your phone is samsung captivate, you can try to flash stock captivate rom with odin.
There is captivate forum in xda: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=703

Oh, i'm sorry. If you can't go to download mode with "vol down + home + power" combo, i think that you need usb jig. You can make it yourself or buy it somewhere.

ODIN (choose GT-I9000): http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=5&t=1&o=1
Stock rom (choose I9000XWJVZ): http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&t=1&o=1&m=GT-I9000&r=1#regiona
This stock rom come without root, so if you want it, you can flash some custom kernel e.g semaphore. Flash stock rom first and then flash custom kernel also with odin (kernel goes to bootloader box in odin).
Semaphore kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112908
edit: You need to register to sammobile if you want to download.

ok..thanx for that..but can i go for a custom ROM rather than a stock one? plz gime the ODIN for that aswell..really appreciate ur help!!

Yes you can flash custom rom, but first flash stock rom. Most custom roms are cwm flashable, so you don't need odin to flash those.
- Flash stock rom with odin.
- Flash semaphore kernel with odin.
- Download some JVZ based custom rom from here.
- Put custom rom (whole zip, don't extract) to internal sdcard.
- Go to recovery (shut down phone, then press and hold vol up + home + power). When recovery menu appear, press vol up/vol down to move and power to confirm.
- Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, then go to advanced menu and wipe dalvik cache.
- When all wiped go back main menu of recovery and choose "install zip from sdcard" then "choose zip from sdcard".
- Find custom rom's zip file and flash it.
- Reboot your phone.
- Enjoy

ur the best man!!! am just waiting to fix the brick n then i do as above!!
i went into this state as of i cudnt get into recover, wen i did thru CWM i couldnt open the update.zip..it was strange..lets c!!
thanx a million!

can you tell me what to do
or give me a guide and what is the best recovery to install i it ?

You need first to check that you can get into download mode by pressing volume down + home + power button.
then just flash as base kernel with odin or heimdall.

yes i can get into download mode
give me the best recoverry and tell me how to use odin ?

go on google and write: 'install firmware update on galaxy s i9000' - first link
you can update any firmware by this tutorial. other, newer firmwares are available on sammobile.com, have a look
after you flash base rom, you just need to a flash a new kernel with odin. i suggest you to use CF or Semaphore kernel.
recovery is already intergrated in thoose two kernels.

Another solution before, I could flash from recovery any path or system image from your system? Its only one solution, I think, but Im not developer, I dont know that solution, thanks.
Other solution possible, could to be if we can flash any custom rom, dont you thinK?

I gave you link for flashable backup..put the foldier into clokworkmod->backup
boot into CWM and try restoring boot.img..if this don't work use ROM manager and hardbrick you'r phone.They will give you a new one or change motherboard..
Sorry for your loss :S
