You can install this Kernel via Odin easily, and YES it will improve your overall performance
Ps.:Flash Gingerbread 2.3.6 its really good

Remember to disable lagfix.

The best kernels for playing games on gingerbread roms are the Semaphore Bigmem kernels. But if you really want lag-free and super smooth gaming, you should consider using froyo 2.2.1 roms.
Oh, and to answer your question, yes you can flash the kernel using the kernel flasher app, but it's probably safer to use Odin.

Thx fr the replies...
I would want to know which version of semaphore to download..??? Thrre are two versions.. 2.1 & a bm version ...

How do you do this?

you should download the RIGHT kernel, if you have JVP download the kernel for JVP ,not the kernel for JVZ.

for gaming and performance TalonDEV kernel is the best

Semaphore kernels link
Hey can someone give me the link to semaphore jvt 1.9.2 kernel?
TIA

If you dont know, you probably dont have to. My guess is you have never used lagfix or ext4. if you think you might have, go to cwm recovery - shut down phone, hit the 3 button combo (power + home + volume up) until samsung galaxy boot screen appears and leave the buttons immediately. in the recovery mode, go to advanced and see if theres any option for Lagfix or Ext4.

No you should not do that. Use a kernal that is meant for your firmaware. If you want to flash semaphore 2.1.1, first upgrade your firware to JVZ using Odin. The are plenty of links to this firware under General.

This could be a silly question
As per the SamMobile.com the JVZ released on November 2011
so how comes this forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112908) postdate is 6 June 2011 ?
My Base version is I9000XXJVT
Kernal version [email protected]#2
can I use above way to root my phone ?
Please help

Hey sorry have been away. Well you should be able to flash a kernel but there arent many out there and i am a little wary of flashing a kernel as they are all in a very experimental stage. Moreover, i find teamhacksung's (pawitp's) build to be more stable and the aries kernel was a whole lot more better. hated glitch the moment i flashed it.
Happy flashing...

Need Rom for i9001 plus...

hello,
wish all here a happy xmas. sorry for my bad english but i hope that i can explain my problem.
I cant find the right firmware in your list.
what i need is a brandingfree firmware. sorry but iam a noob
firmware is 2.3.5
Baseband I9001XXKPF (this what i cant find)
wed-sep-28/KST2011
csc- 9001/XEGKP2
you need more ?
and question is : which custom firmware are pos. ?
hope u can help me
lg marc

You should be able to flash any custom firmware, like Performance Edition RC2 or Cranium Rom. If you want just the stock unbranded firmware, you can flash last one on the list - 2.3.6 XXKPS. I don't know what language are you using on your phone, if it is not English, pay attention to that as well - you'll find all info in relevant threads.

@tomi555,
I flashed the regular 2.3.6 yesterday.with odin very simple and easy. like 10 minutes.
I need a custom firmware a mixed between speed and akku protection.
anybody an idea ??
lg gyver

Well I can recommend you try Performance Edition RC2, it is currenty in beta, you can wait a day or two for the final release. If you are going to install beta, be sure to change CPU governor to smartass v2. Final version will have that enabled by default. It is really fast with good battery life and no bugs (but you can have small issues with installation). You will really see a difference compared to stock rom
Or you can try Cranium rom, but I haven't tested it, seems it currently has a problem if you want to set mp3 as a ringtone. Other than that it seems to be great if you want to overclock your CPU. I don't have such needs so I'm not using it.

thx tomi
ok I have the rc4 now. but how I can update to rc6 or rc5 ?? Is it pos. to run rc6 on my i9001 ??
pls help
thx gyver

You mean Cranium RC6, of course it is possible, you can download the Odin one package from their website.
http://sakindia123.prophecy.li/
For other questions, info and installation tips check out its thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1313650

thx soooo much.
I used this thread to flash to rc4.
Installation:
Installation for RC6(comin' up)
*Recovery Package (Now,easy to install!)
1)Install FeaMod Recovery
2)boot into recovery mode
3)Flash Cranium Rom
4)dont wipe cache.............and fix permssions!
thats all for update up to rc6 ???
lg gyver

Yes, I believe that's the method if you downloaded
Cranium Rom RC6 (CWM Version)
You can flash it via Odin MultiDownloader from your computer just like the stock rom if you download
Cranium Rom RC6 (Odin Version by nikagl)
But... like I said I don't have that ROM so perhaps better double-check / ask in that thread

I dont know how I can install Feamod Recovery.
If I have it to flash with odin ?? where is the ariesve file ?
or can I use the same as to flash the rom ?
lg gyver

got it.
damn this is very cool. thx to the hole xda team.
@tom special thx to u

[Q] Clean Install

Hi everybody, i've a question about installation of kernell and roms.
I must flash my phone with Ufficial Samsung Firmware before install new kernel and new rom?
And i have another question (i just used search but i didn't find anything) about differences on XWJW1 JVZ and go on.. which are differences?
Thank u

u dont have to instal an official firmware before instaling a custom kernel or rom. its obvious that if u didnt flashed the phone yet, it has an official rom on it jvs jvz jvt - depends on the location where you bought the phone (i think) i am kinda a new too

Ok thank u, then about jvz jvs jvt i should know the corrispective locations..

I think jvt is the most stable, works really well with latest semaphore kernel, waiting for next stable release, then hopefully ics will be worth a try

[Q] Which rom should i use?

What rom is best and most stable?

JVT stock rom with the semaphore kernel.
or wait for the F1 Innovation ROM Version 15 which is gonna be released tomorrow:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1058814

thanks for the reply ill wait for the f1 and see

ICS 4.0.3 rc2.1 onecosmic
ICS 4.0.3 rc2.1 onecosmic
love these rom

ICS from onecosmic ist really cool, but think about the problems.
Some Apps dont run with this rom. For me, there ist no connection with MyPhoneExplorer. Also problems with unsing external SD, because it is rooted to mnt/emmc.
After flashing GOA 6.0 and some other custom roms, i am at the moment on doctorz rom 13.1 with no FCs or any other problems. It ist smooth, all apps are running..for me the best rom at the moment.

First thing you should decide if you want a 2.3.x ROM or a 4.0.x release. Then you can decide which ROM is right for you.
Check the screenshots and see what you like the most. I can advice MintBerry which is very fast and good looking, but since it's not based on a Samsung ROM you're gonna miss the Samsung Apps (as far as you can miss them).

Stable - any stock ROM or Stock Rom based; you can speed it up by using a different kernel (try semaphore) and/or tweaks (Thunderbolt's). I don's advise any ICS based ROM: they are still a little away from what I call ''stable''.
As for best... well, it depends on what you think. My advice is to try several ones. Each user has it's thoughts on what they think it's ''best''.

i want 2.3.x because i know ics isnt that stable and alot of things dont work still..
currently im on jvq 2.3.4 flashed with odin ( i don't have cwm because i dont know if it will void my guarantee :/ )
and a user above suggested jvt but i also saw jvz and im wondering which is better ( both 2.3.6 )

I have tried lots of roms, I found galaxydroid 3.3 gave best battery life, but 5.0 lost it. I am currently using mitrerom, and this seems very stable, nice tweaks, boots very fast and thus far have no issues. I am avoiding any 4.0 rom, as they are still all in beta stages and can still have issues. Best thing to do, is see what you like and flash, flash and flash. You cant do any wrong if you read the tutorials and take your time, oh and dont touch the bootloader!!

Buttwad. Why not to post a link to that "mitrerom"? I can't find it anywhere.

can someone post a download link for odin please ?

GingerReal2 R2.0.0 + Semaphore 2.4.0 i the best

Myhm... someone can.... first post here...

if i want to flash semaphore with odin i put it in the pda ?
it wont break stock jvz?

ANY kernel in Odin -passes as PDA.

JW1 with CWM-Kernel or SauRom ....

so stock jvz will work fine with semaphore 2.4?

bump :/ this is my last question

[Q] I9000 Kernel odin flashable

My phone is completely stock 2.3.6 xxjvu at the moment. Can anyone direct me to a good Odin-flashable kernel? I've tried a few kernels but one of them doesn't work so I guess my phone is kinda nitpicky, so I request a stable proven kernel rather than an experimental one.

Those are firmwares though (and stock kernels)? I request a kernel with root. Sorry if I am missing something.
