[Q] FastyII Rom and Clockwork Recovery - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Maybe i did something wrong but when I go to use Clockwork recovery with FastyII I get the following options and no Captivate.
Confirm Phone Model
Galaxy Si9000
Galaxy i9000 (MTD )
Google Nexus S
Nexus S 4G
I know it has to do with the moded bootloader but Captivate is not in that list. Is there a way to fix that.
By the way I love FastyII I get so much better battery on my phone. Any chance a version for Samsung Vibrate

It should have cwm built into the kernel. No reason to use rom manager

Just to confirm, yes, CWM is built in on Fasty II kernel (I am using Fasty II v1.9)

[Q] Xcaliburinhand's reorient Kernel advise

So i got the reorient kernel so now i am wondering which of the i9000 rom's to flash? most of the Rom's over there have their own kernels built in so besides Tayutama's i can't find anything to try out
Voodoo/z4 compatibility preferred.
You can use pretty much any one of the roms that are in the i9000 forum. Just flash the rom and then the kernal right away afterwards through recovery mode. Right now im using Darkys raw steel edition v3.0 with reorient.

I'm making that rom compatible with captivate kernels as we speak (trying anyway, pain in the ass)

You may want to follow this thread since you will be using JPM modem http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=818981 (talks about other options for modems if you have problems with reception) I am currently studying it for possible changes.
My changes to Doc's v6
1) I also themed with mine with the stock lock, circle battery, and power button options which one member posted found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8883089&postcount=1700
2) I also use CM6 email which is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8849671&postcount=1105

Why don't you have a lag fix

Doc doesn't use then because out is fast way it is. I don't like to hassle with voodoo whet you have to disable brite you flash another rom.
Now moved to jpa. Newly out yesterday so not tested yet.

[Q] does kernel matter?

Do you have to use specific kernels with certain custom roms? I am currently running andromeda 3 with ursa minor kernal. Can I just flash a new rom via clockwork mod without changing kernel?
Thanks!

You just have to captivate kernel with captivate modem (unless reorinted i9000 kernel) and sam matchup with i9000 kernel/modem... If the rom is compatable by what I said then u can just flash the rom

Tbh, I don't see why you would want to flash another rom using ursa minor. A3 + ursa minor go insanely well together (which is why they are in the ROM full flash). I believe you can use ursa minor on other froyo custom rom but I could be wrong (Adam, if you see this, please don't kill me if I'm wrong ) as A3 is I9010 based.
Other roms come with different kernel as the devs feel like they're the best/most stable to go along with their respective rom. So if you want the best experience trying a different one, I suggest you do a full flash (which includes rom, modem, kernel) and try them out that way. You can then decide if A3 (or any other) is more appropriated for you.
Just my though tho
I can vouch that. I need teh OC/UV.

Give me some advice - Which kernel should I use for my daily drivers? X-Post

Hello XDA,
I recently acquired a Samsung Telus T959D Fascinate and have anxiously waiting for a ICS release.
In order to use ]teamhacksung's ICS Port for Galaxy S (BUILD 9) for my fascinate, I used >>This Thread<< to flash a i9000 kernel to use the ROM.
Now I am confused a bit. I've done some research on XDA and google, but for some reason can't get a straight answer on what to do in order to flash back a regular Samsung Fascinate ROM, such as CM7.1. I want to flash back, but I don't know which kernel to use because I am currently using the i9000 kernel.
I could flash one by Glitch and try CM7.1 from there, but I'm not sure what the voodoo lagfix option is and why it would brick my phone.
If any of you could recommend a kernel to flash to use regular Fascinate ROMs, and a kernel to use for i9000 ROMs, it would be greatly appreciated
I would reccomend Lords kernel v 9.3 BFS. If you like I can send you the download.

Can some explain to me why I would change my Kernel?

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note NT-7000 which I won in a UK competition ..
Orignally it came with Gingerbread and had excellent life - then I did the official OTA update to ICS 4.0.3 and then I found it much slower and battery life sucked
So I decided to try rooting it to allow me to reset the battery calibration file.
I followed a very good video guide BUT I didn't add the Kernal, simply because I have no idea what the Kernal does.
I am confused as to what a Kernal is and what's the pro's and cons of different Kernals - perhaps that would make for a good video?
As far as I am ware my Kernel is whatever came with the phone. What is the safest / best Kernel to put on a Galaxy Note NT-7000?
I keep hearing for trying out new ROMs that something called the Abyss Kernel is safest? Could someone explain why this is the case and what's the latest version for my phone.
I used to have a ZTE Blade and used to flash ROMs on that all the time using ROM Manager but I don't ever remember anything about a Kernel.
When I tried ROM Manager on this phone it doesn't have any option for Samsung Galaxy Note, so I didn't go ahead and install the ClockWork Recovery.

All the ICS galaxy note has eMMC bug which can brick your phone due to wipe/factory reset.so,kernels basically save you from that.and plus gives you better performance and stability.and you can do many stuffs by rooting+wd a good kernel.
if you want a kernel for your stock rooted ics 4.0.3.then go for speed kernel or notecore.both are good and double safe.
You are with a dangerous kernel right now
Flash speedmod or notecore kernel which are asfe and emmc bug free
OK I've done a bit more reading since I posted and researched, so starting to understand a bit more was a kernel does
So right now I have a standard GalaxyNote ROM 4.0.3 (although I removed two Apps Weather App and Yahoo! Finance)
So if I want to simply change the Kernel, all I have to do is push the volume up button, home key and power and then it will book into the standard CWM and from there choose update from ZIP? and that is all that is needed to update the Kernel?
I was thinking of updating using the latest version of SpeedMod on this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1673072
speedmod-kernel-n7000-ics-k3-13-CWM.zip
This version of ClockWorkMod doesn't have any backup option listed will an option to backup appear when I update the ZIP file?
I also now have Mobile Odin Pro could I use that in anyway to update the Kernel?
Do I need to change my Kernel from stock Kernel if I wish to load a totally new ROM using Mobile Odin Pro?
I was looking at perhaps trying Classic_ROM_V3 .zip which looked pretty good?

Mobile odin can be used to flash stock ROM not custom, you can flash custom kernel in same operation while flashing stock ROM with Mobile odin (by selecting custom kernel for kernel Tab)
Custom ROM will already have safe kernel, though you can change later.
Use mobile odin to flash your new custom kernal (a safe one free of emmc bug) you should then have clockwork recovery instead of stock and you can then flash new roms through said clockwork recovery. Or stay stock with the custom kernal.

Cool .. I used Mobile Odin and the speedmod-kernel-n7000-ics-k3-13-Odin.tar Kernel File .... all went well.
Now I am on Samsung's Stock 4.0.3 ROM
I've backed up this ROM in CWM to the SD Card
I ran some benchmarks before and after the Kernel upgrade - according to all the benchmarks it'snow running slower then before BUT the real world user experience seems faster.
If I were to do a Factory Reset would this Kernel now remain in place?
Also on the website I download the Kernal from (http://touristinparadise.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Samsung Galaxy Note)
It states This version is only for Samsung ICS ROMs. It will not work with CyanogenMod or AOKP ROMS!
Does that mean Original Samsung ICS ROMs or does it also include ROMs which might be based on Samsung ROMs?
Main thing I want to try now is moving to an ICS 4.0.4 ROM so I can use the new Movable Video Feature and perhaps squeeze some more everyday battery life out of my phone.
Yes that is only for samsung galaxy note....it wnt work 4 custom roms......

[Q] Semaphore kernel 2.9.9 on Cyanogenmod 10.1 AT&T Samsung Galaxy Captivate I897

Ok I recently got a Galaxy Captivate and want to update it to Cyanogenmod 10.1 but I can't find any good guides on what kernel I should use. I know that the semaphore kernel works with Cyanogenmod 10. So I guess my question is, does the latest Semaphore kernel (2.9.9) work with the latest version of Cyanogenmod (10.1) for the AT&T Samsung Galaxy Captivate I897?

Yes indeed.
Just make sure when you grab Semaphore that you get the one for 4.2 firmware.
Thanks

Re: [Q] Semaphore kernel 2.9.9 on Cyanogenmod 10.1 AT&T Samsung Galaxy Captivate I897
Although the semaphore kernel works I wouldn't recommend it with the Samsung Galaxy Captivate because it only has 3 available overclocking governors and the battery life wasn't very good although I'm not sure if the kernel is at fault. I'm currently using the kernel that comes built into CM10.1 for the Captivate and seems to work fine so far.
