[Q] Flashing a new Kernel

Hi everyone.
I have the teamhacksung's ICS rom (build 14) that I have installed above the onecosmic's rom.
I would like to know how I sould proceed to install THIS new kernel.
Should I just have to flash the zip in recovery mode?
Thanks

If you are flashing from another rom.
1. Reboot into recovery using button combos.
2. Flash RC3.1.
3. Reboot into recovery, wipe data / factory reset.
4. Wipe cache.
5. (optional) flash new kernel
6. Reboot.
If you are upgrading from an earlier build.
1. Flash the newest build in CWM.
If you have rebooted and your phone will not go past the kernel screen.
1. Boot into CWM and wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition.
2. Reflash the appropriate kernel.
3. Reboot.

If u just want to flash a new Kernel, it's not neccessary to reflash the whole ROM. Put the Kernels ZIP into internal SD-Card, go to CWM via boot or 3-Button-Combo, head to the zip-file and install it.
It could be useful, to flash the Kernel-cleaning-script that u will find here:

[Q] Slim ICS problem! Bootloop, tried everything!

So the other day I tried to flash Slim ICS on to my i9000 but I failed. There's like three methods you can try between if the first one doesn't succeed... Non of them worked for me. I still got the same boot loop on every method, every time. What am I supposed to do? Can someone please be so kind and write me a step by step tutorial of how to install Slim ICS. Worth mentioning is I'm on Darky's gingerbread rom JVQ v10.2 RES.

You flashed ICS Kernel first? Tried to install the Rom twice? First to install Kernel and second to install Rom?

Step 1. Boot into CWM recovery.
Step 2. Wipe data/Factory reset.
Step 3. Mounts and storage> Format / System.
Step 4. Advanced> Wipe Dalvik cache & Wipe Battery stats.
Step 5. Install from SD card...
i. Flash Base_3.6.zip
ii. Flash Base_3.6.zip again
iv. Flash 3.6_I9000_Essentials.zip
v. Flash any other .zips you require like face unlock
**Step 6. Flash an alternative kernel like Siyah or NEAK, SOD reports from users of stock kernel. I flashed Siyah from the beginning when I updated to 3.6 so can't comment.**
Reboot.
Happy days!
**EDIT: SORRY don't flash Siyah or NEAK because they are GT-I9100 kernels!! Ma bad!

I tried to install the rom twice without any luck. I haven't tried to install ICS kernel first though. Do you recommend one?

I've followed step 1-5 with no luck whatsoever. I haven't tried step 6. I will probably end up in a boot loop after step 5 so how do I install the kernel? Should I put the kernel on the SD card together with the rom and the essentials and flash the kernel before the reboot after step 5?

You could flash your I9000 with another ICS via Odin and then try??
PLEASE NOTE I edited my post above, blasted Tapatalk.

OMG! I'm panicking! I just cannot get it to work... I've tried everything! Done all the methods recommended. Flashed semaphore ICS 1.1.1 and it still won't work! The only taste of this "well spoken of" rom I can get is through slim ICS v2.6, it doesn't boot loop but when booted I can't seem to get any 3g or signal. So not even that works. I WANT THIS ROM SO BADLY! Please someone help me!

Follow a thread like Team ICSSGS for dummies or ICS333 to get ICS on your phone then follow steps below (from Slim website).
From another ICS ROM
1. Download my latest Base + Essentials (from downloads page download zip not md5)
2. Enter CWM, wipe data, format system ( in mounts and storage)
3. Flash Base*** AND Essentials, Reboot to system.
*** - If the base flash is too quick ( < 5 seconds or so), reflash base before flashing essentials.
You can also clear cache & dalvik cache,clear nstools & init'd (advanced menu). You should clear cache & dalvik cache, nstools & init'd before flashing semaphore. Also once in ROM it is best not to actually use nsTools but rather use semaphore app.
No need to clear battery. My battery is as good as ever and I've never done this and I've flashed a lot of different ROMS.
if you are coming from gingerbread you will need to flash a modem.

Galaxy S - SlimICS
But one thing: I don't know if I need to flash cm9 modem afterwards or does it need to replace the step where you actually flash cm9 nightly?

let's say the following would be the regular installation, do I need to replace step 3(CM9 nightly) with the CM9 modem? Or do I just flash the CM9 Modem afterwards after step 6? (When I have already flashed CM9 nightly)
1.)Download latest cm9 nightly or any ICS kernel (odin or cmw flashable), device_x.x.zip and Slim_Common.zip
2.)Enter CWM Recovery, Wipe data, Format System ( In Mounts and Storage)
3.)Flash CM9 nightly or any ICS kernel ( via odin or cwm).
4.)Reboot to recovery.
5.)Flash Device_x.x.zip***, then Slim_Common.zip.
6.)Reboot to system, Enjoy.
*** - If the flash is too quick ( < 5 seconds or so), reflash base before flashing essentials.

Can't flash in CWM

Hey Guys,
I have this problem where i cant seem to flash to any new roms in CWM with the new roms in zip files on my SD card.
I have tried flashing to new kernels but it doesn't seem to change anything.
The last rom i flashed was Criskelo v7 and i haven't changed because i cant every time i try to flash something new in CWM it seems like it only just starts to do it then freezes and i leave it because it might be working and it always end up rebooting and then i find I'm back on Criskelo v7 as if its a fresh install and it need my google account / full setup as if its new but no new rom.
I have also tried updating CWM with odin it works to update odin but it still cant flash any new roms.
Am i doing something wrong? please if anyone has any idea let me know.
Sorry if this has been covered but i really did try and find similar problems.
Thanks

What does the screen read? Error 7?

if you want to flash any roms using cwm,
1. Flash Safe kernels like Hydracore (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749863) or Philz Kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877270).
2. Reboot in recovery
3. Do all 3 wipes (wipe data, wipe cache partition & wipe dalvik cache)
4. Flash romzip
5. Reboot
If you want to flash XXLS7 TW JB Dump Based Roms , then
1. Flash Safe kernels like Hydracore (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749863) or Philz Kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877270).
2. Reboot in recovery
3. Do all 3 wipes (wipe data, wipe cache partition & wipe dalvik cache)
4. Format /system & /preload in mount and storage
5. Flash romzip
6. Reboot
BTW what rom you are going to install

I had a similar issue and it was a root issue.
To see if it is the same for you, if you have SuperSU, open it, and press 'Continue' if prompted to update binary. If this fails, your problem is root related, the solution of which is below. Unfortunately I don't know how else to test if you don't have SuperSU or if the update prompt doesn't appear.
Below is how I fixed the problem. It may not work for you, and if it doesn't, it's not my fault.
Also note this method will fix the issue no matter what caused it, and wipes data, so backup what you need. It also assumes your ROM is flashable.
1 Put your ROM anywhere in /storage/sdcard0 on your phone.
2 Go to hotfile.com/dl/155490069/c7932d4/N7000XXLPY_N7000OXALPY_DBT.zip.html on your computer to download N7000XXLPY_N7000OXALPY_DBT.
4 Extract this to produce N7000XXLPY_N7000OXALPY_N7000XXLPT_HOME.tar.md5.
5 Flash this through Odin.
6 After your phone reboots (you can't get into the actual OS so you must do this in the Samsung boot animation), enter recovery.
7 Wipe data and cache.
8 Enter download mode.
9 Go to puu.sh/1q5mJ to download GL_NOTECORE_HYDRACORE_v4-3b_STD.tar.
10 Flash this through Odin.
11 After your phone reboots (you don't need to wait to get into the actual OS - you can do it in the Samsung boot animation), enter recovery.
12 Flash your ROM.

Flash ICS via ODIN directly

currently on alliancerom, just wonder if it possible to directly flash ICS back via ODIN or i MUST go back to GB first?

you can flash directly to ICS, you may get some FCs after the flash because of old custom ROM files, So the best thing to do would be to:
Reboot into TWRP recovery (included with Alliance ROM)
wipe cache / dalvik cache / factory reset
reboot download mode
flash ICS via ODIN or Mobile ODIN.

i wonder is it safe to flash philz kernel and reboot recovery into cwm and flash other rom? because as far as i know flashing cwm type of zip will cause big issue in twrp

sure you can, just download it and install like you would a ROM, It might not work with Alliance ROM, so be sure to reboot recovery and change ROM from there. :good:

You can flash Stock ICS and philz kernel at the same time with Mobile Odin. Then, reboot in recovery and do the wipes....that is how I did it and worked fine for me.
