[Q] Factory Rom - Kernel Version? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I joined the Samsung Galaxy S club yesterday (previously a HTC die-hard fan) - anyway I digress... hit the romming scene with a zeal and after mucking around with a few roms, kernals etc, I decided I liked the feel of the samsung factory rom (used the CheckFusDownloader)
I used the oneclick root tool and am enjoying the benefits of a rooted android.
Enough waffling, my question is, after I messed around with kernel uploads etc, am unsure if Im using an optimal kernel at the moment for the default samung rom... here's a screenshot...

Another side-question... when you flash a factory rom... does it also replace the kernal?

don't know which kernel is the best, but try some of them out.
If you flash a ROM your kernel is also flashed.

ATT Tilt Custom ROM Reccomedations?

I am using the latest official ROM, but want a faster version. Can anyone reccomend a custom ROM that is mostly based on the official only stripped out and sped up? I dont want to go too custom. Make sense?
Hmmm, you don't seem that new so i'm surprised you asked this :S. There are different ROMs and you should try them ALL out (yes, i said all) to see which one best fits your needs. You have no idea how tedious and stressful (at times) cooking a ROM could be so it's only fair you go try them all out and decide for yourself
I asked only because there seem to be SO many, and I really just want a simple paired down plain-old stock rom. Nothing fancy, just a few "speed her up" tweaks built in. I wasnt about to ask in the ROM thread, thats suicide.. I thought here would be ok.
I have posted some here and lurked for a while now, but only flashed like twice. 1 custom then the 6.1 official. I am not a big flash junkie, only a speed freak.
Anyone got a suggestion?

I you want stock go with "Imnotatreofan" ROM - Stock At&T 6.1 ROM with no bloatware - I have run it and it is very good.
If you want F-A-S-T - the try the "NoThrills" ROM - I am currently running this one and love it. Sorry I don't have links, I just saw your post and thought I would reply.
Useless Thread. Best is Subjective. Try them all. They are like Pokemon, Must Collect them all!

[Q] [Question] How to Dump ROM and Root New Device (Mi700 DroidPad)

Hi guys,
{

I know this is not a G1/Dream question, but I believe the best developers are in this area. I am about to get my hands on a new Mi700 DroidPad, a budget Android Tablet, with Android 2.2. I wrote a review which was picked up at Engadget http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/30/csls-500-spice-mi700-droidpad-runs-froyo-looks-awfully-famili/. The software as I can perceive it so far is problematic (slightly buggy). Since this is a new device (and I have checked for any development efforts from the Net and found none so far), I was wondering what I should do in order to:
1) Root the device
2) Dump the ROM
In regards to rooting the device, I was thinking since it shares the same CPU as the Aria and Legend (MSM7227), can I just use the one-click root method? I will try that, but would like to know alternatives if that fails.
On dumping the ROM, well... I have no idea what can be done, but would love to try doing it, so that Flash can run on it. At the moment, though it is on 2.2, Flash does not appear in the Market.
Anyway, thanks a lot guys. If anyone can help clarify the matter or point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated. Btw, I'm trying to arrange with CSL to give developers some discount on purchasing this device which is equal in functionality with Samsung's Tab, without the crazy pricing.
Thanks!
we need someone hlep us how to root ???? please help!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Q] I need a bit of help removing all signs of root/flashing.

I've messed up my efs folder, and idioticly didn't back up, and now my phone doesn't work with my sim card, so I'm shipping it off to Samsung to get fixed up. But of course, I've rooted, used half a dozen different roms and firmwares, and I'm not really too sure how to cover up all my tracks.
I've unrooted using BackfireNL's method for Eclair, before upgrading to Froyo (just to make sure).
In my 'About Phone', though, three things are concerning me. my Baseband, kernal version and build number. My Baseband version is 'I9000XXJPP' and my build number is 'FROYO.XXJPO'. These don't seem very official looking to me. I've flashed the JPO rom from Samfirmware.
And, more worrying is my kernal version.
'2.6.32.9
root(at)sep-35 #1'
(I couldn't put an at symbol cause the system thought I was trying to post a link)
Surely it's not supposed to say 'root' all up in there, plain as day? Is there an official stock kernal I can flash? I've had a search, but I can't seem to find one.
Those are the correct settings for the JPO ROM.
I have exactly the same and haven't rooted yet:

[Q] Spls/radios and flashing to CM6 or CM7.

Ok...I know this has probably been asked a few times but I am on my phone and would like to know thos before I get home.
So I am going to root and flash a Tom on the g1 I just got for my friend. I was thinking about trying both cm6 and cm7 and seeing which one runs better on this phone.
After I root and clash the custom recovery will I be able to go straight to froyo or gingerbread or must I flash the correct radios/spls first.
I found a few good guides on how to root and get a recovery but if anyone could point me in the right direction on how to get to cm6 or cm7 it would he much appreciated. I want to make sure I get this down before doing it so I don't brick his new phone. I am onlybfamiliar with rooting/flashing roms on samsung phones and the thunderbolt.
Thank you in advance for any help you guys can give me.

instead of cm6 i would use froyo by laszlo which is the same but much smoother with a theme. for cm7 go with cm7 magpie which is the fastest in my opinion. both roms use radio 28.25 ( on the threads. magpie doesn't have a thread.) and hboot 13d.

[Q] What kernel should I use with Cyanogenmod

Hi,
I recently flashed my Note from the stock ICS to CyanogenMod (I cheated and used the app). I have then updated to the latest nightly release and all is looking good, however, I am wondering if I am running the correct Kernel version, or if there is a better one that I should be using.
Also, where can I download a safe version of the Google Play Store apk?

Inbuild kernel is good.
Play Store apk is in GApps.zip available.
Hey, thanks for the reply. I have just managed to get GoogleApps installed from here wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps. Lets see how I get on now
Or this one found vie forum search: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942
Hi, yep that's great thanks. I just put that in there as an after thought, hadn't done a search I know newb sorry.
I was more concerned about the kernel question as I feel that's a little harder to search for when I am not entirely sure what I am looking for. When I initially rooted the phone I believe the "rooting" method I used installed a custom kernel, and then by the looks of it the cyanogen app has now updated it to a version they supply. Just wanted to know really, if this kernel is the best to be running on my N7000.

Yes, for rooting a custom kernel WITH recovery got installed for the rooting. If you flash an update for your CM Rom you will automatically get also a new kernel which should fits fine. Or do a search and you will find some nice alternatives, but be shure it' for your Rom!
