how to flash cm10 or cm9 over ics rom?

how can i flash properly a cm9 or cm10 rom if i'm currently using kingdroid v7.1 and notecore kernel ???

If you mean notecore kernel.. It is safe to flash roms from there as it has MMC_CAP_ERASE disabled and you can perform all the necessary wipes in order to flash the new rom

Notecore is safe but not any ics.kernel is safe to flash cm base ROM
Dont understand why op asking someone tried, why someone flash from ics when it can brick device. Just to try brick?

i'm sorry cause in a cm10 based thread i asked if it is safe to flash cm10 with notecore kernel and someone said that it's a safe kernel..So what do they mean by that? just finding a way how properly flash cm9 or cm10 if i'm on kdv7.1 ics and my kernel is notecore v13.. sorry for the misunderstanding....

i meant notekernel by gavin..

Notekernel is safe means you can safely wipe, flash CWM, can take nadroid backup/Restore on ICS ROM only.
Here in your case this safety have no concern. Notecore is TW based ICS kernel. You can't flash CM based ROM on any ICS based kernel/ROM.
To flash CM based ROM, get GB ROM/Kernel + CWM and flash CM based ROM using that.

Yes. Flash using pc odin, then root and install cwm, before flashing cm9.

That is 100% wrong,
you CAN flash CM{9,10} from a safe kernel, be it SpeedMod, franco or NoteCore, exactly the same way you can flash a TW rom from a CM kernel, as long as it's a safe kernel you can do whatever you want.
Now, if you flash NoteCore *after* you flash CM, your device won't boot, however you can always use the recovery to install a CM kernel or just a TW rom.
You do NOT need to flash a whole GB ROM, you can just flash the kernel and boot into it's recovery.
Also, you do NOT need a GB kernel or Abyss to flash anything as long as you have a safe kernel, aka SpeedMod, NoteCore, CM9/10, Thor, etc.
Your statement about flashing a whole GB ROM just to flash CM is misleading and wrong.
I still appreciate all your useful posts.
@PierreTech, it is 100% safe to wipe and install CM from NoteCore.
Steps :
0. Do a nandroid backup or a titanium backup. (optional really)
1. Reboot into recovery.
2. Do a factory reset.
3. Install CM9/10/whatever.
4. If it doesn't include google apps, make sure you have the appropriate zip file and flash it too.

Hehe dr.ketan I gotta agree this guy... You can use notecore kernel to flash any ICS custom rom... Aosp or tw.. As when you flash the rom via cwm the rom will flash its own kernel... In the case of CM9/10 the proper kernel will be flashed along with the rom overwriting notecore/speedmod..
But I can not agree the tone he does make things clear.. He could just kindly say no dude this works this way or that...
I'm sure you know way more things than me or him but in this little thing they guy its right

I meant no disrespect to dr.ketan, without his great guide I wouldn't have been able to root my phone.

Oh, i really dont mind. It.is possible i may not knowing everything . My opinion was just based on Instruction on cm9 thread where it is mentioned that cm based rom shudn't flash on ics based rom, and that only thing i took into reference. I never have used any custom rom so may be not aware of fact, but this also be useful if such clearification to be made on installation instruction on op of cm rom thread, as really i m feeling awkward to go against developers instruction.
Just to edit :
@life.eq.null
You finds my statement to flash full rom misleading and wrong, but actually
I already used word 'GB ROM/Kernel' to flash.
That just means either rom or kernel. I never said you need to flash only ROM. I showing you one possibility, if someone on Non rootable GB ROM, then it will not be easy task to flash Full prerooted/rootable ROM to get CWM? in that case it is niether misleading nor 100% wrong.
Now here i am copying text written on CM9 thread installation instruction
Make sure to run CM9 or an AOSP-based ROM : FLASHING FROM STOCK ICS OR ROMS BASED ON STOCK ICS WILL RESULT IN A BRICK!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now if my statement is 100% wrong. totally misleading then you should head up to developers of CM9, to edit instruction in more clear way. b'coz here ROM itself said to avoid, no instruction about to use safe kernel mentioned.
I am agree your information may be recent and experience based, even i can say may be better and useful to users who are on safe kernel. But that doesn't make older instruction wrong and misleading, when till now everybody following this instruction which is instructed by developer only.
Regards.

"Quote:

I think they only talk about the Kernel, not about the whole rom. I flashed many times a cm9 rom on a stock ics rom, but always AFTER flashing through CWM a safe cm9 kernel, or abyssnote4.2.
from ics stock, usually I boot to recovery, apply the cleaning script Sybr, flash my safe kernel (do not reboot, it will work now), do the 3 wipes, then flash new rom cm9 based. then reboot.

Yes, you can flash any rom if you are on hydracore or any other safe kernel like speedmod.
After flashing new rom make sure to check the kernel in it, most of the custom roms have safe kernel now but if not then immediately flash safe kernel after flashing new rom.

I need wipe all data before flashing custom rom right? So do i need reinstall supersu busybox, titanium backup all those apps?

Yes, wipe is requied for clean instal. No need to install supersu or busy box after flashin custom rom using cwm as custom roms will be obviously rooted, just check and update supersu if required via playstore.
But yes you have to install all other non system apps downloaded from store or sd card.
Better backup all downloaded apps using titanium before wipe.

[Q] Safe to flash Hydracore Kernel under "Crash Rom"

I just flash "Crash Rom" under Hydracore Kernel but when I done flashing "Crash Rom" my kernel version become N7000XXLRK-CL811902. Is that safe for me to flash hydracore kernel again under that rom? If i want changing rom i can wipe data through that kernel(N7000XXLRK-CL811902) or better on hydracore?

Crash rom includes CF-Root XXLRK kernel by default (as the latest version is without aroma I guess), that's why Hydracore was replaced by it (N7000XXLRK-CL811902)
CF root kernels are safe to wipe but are not 100% safe to flash roms using cwm, look here. Yes, you can flash Hydracore again.

I suggest flashing HydraCore (former NoteCore) kernel before performing a full wipe / flash.
Flash HydraCore kernel.
Reboot recovery.
Perform a full wipe (manually format /system/, too, if you come from TW and want to flash CM, for example - I've had troubles with that).
Flash your desire ROM.
Also, HydraCore works on all ROMs : TouchWiz, MIUI, CM9, CM10, AOKP, ParanoidAndroid... everything . And HydraCore is the kernel I'd reccomend for general use, anyway .

[Q] Mixed ROM and Kernel

Hi i'm new here, just installed Carbon Rom JellyBean v1.7 Release and the kernel is from the ROM itself (3.0.31-CM-g209ebe6)
Question is:
1) Can i install SpeedMod N7000 Jelly Bean Kernel on that ROM?
2) If yes, Can this ROM be installed with ANY N7000 Kernel?
Big thanks and sorry if i'm being too noob
And excuse my english, too

No, the speedmod is for the Touchwiz based [TW] ROMs. Carbon ROM is CyanogenMod [CM] based. So not all kernels can be installed on any ROM, when u read a kernel thread, you'll have the compatibility of the kernel with ROMs written in that. Never flash any kernel on an incompatible ROM, may lead to a brick.

Oh i see. So is it okay if i install CM9 Kernel on a CM10.1 ROM?

I am not sure about tthat, but better not flash it on CM10 as most likely it won't work, CM 10 is a totally new version. Better not try it.

No. You cant flash different version kernel on different roms. CM10.1 only supports CM10.1 kernels. Currently there are NX kernel and Asylum kernel for this.
Remember never flash different kernel on different rom. This will brick your device.

Alright thanks. Any recommendations of kernel that can do over clock and gaming ? Currently my Real Racing 3 just plays at 12fps.. That's unplayable for me. Thanks before

NX kernel for CM based ROMs, check out the various kernels in the Android Development thread... Many CM based ROMs will have the CPU frequency option in the performance control menu. Careful, overclocking can have adverse effects, may fry up the motherboard...

Thanks, that kernel should have increase my performance right?
But signal problem was reported if i'm not mistaken. So i'm a bit confused as i do a lot of phone calls.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192893&highlight=nx+kernel Read the features of the kernel in this thread. No there wont be any connectivity issues, NX kernel or the CM kernel are stable ones. If there are some issues, then flash a stable version of those kernels.

OK, when the process is successful, will i lose my data?

If you just flash the kernel then no you won't. You lose the data only if you do a Factory reset (Data wipe from the recovery). You have already installed Carbon ROM now just go to recovery and flash the .zip kernel file.

Then what about if i want to Change ROM , but it requires wiping data. If i restore the CWM backup , then it'll get to the previous ROM, no?

If your ROM A is completely backed up. Yes after wiping data and restoring you will get ROM A and ROM B will be completely gone

Yes you can, back up contacts using google account or even via apps like go backup. Apps back up can be done via Titanium Backup, it is very convenient.
