Which rom should I use to flash?

Here are the details of my tab
Firmware Version: 2.2
Baseband Ver: I987UCJK1
Kernel Ver: 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1
Build Number: FROYO.UCJK1
Carrier: At&t US
So I managed to root my device using Superoneclick but I'm having trouble running clockworkmod because of a package verification error. I've realized that I need to upgrade my kernel to make it work. But I'm having trouble finding the right kernel/rom. I'd prefer to flash a new rom using ODIN but I'm unable to figure out which rom to use. Can anyone suggest me a rom to choose? I'm confused by jk,jv,ja terminology

Flash the rotohammer JME version 4. Then flash chainfire cf root to get CWM. BE SURE TO USE FROYO VERSIONS NOT THE GINGERBREAD VERSION.

I believe AT&T is a GSM tab, uses a sim card, so any GSM roms will work. If its doesn't use a sim card look for the CDMA roms.
I would suggest upgrading to gingerbread as that works really well.
The best advice I could give is read any guides on updating REALLY well, go slow, doublecheck what you've done and DON'T skip steps because you read through already.
If you want to keep all your Contacts, Apps ETC... then backup with Titanium Backup before you flash as this will clear it out...
GSM ROM
Go here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888071 it will give you an app thay allows you to check your bootloader.
You may have to go to settings>Applications>unknown sources needs a tick to install.. This allows the installation of 3rd party apps using file manager. Run the app, it will tell you if the bootloaders are locked or ask if you want to unlock... Use at your own risk...
So saying, this was the first gingerbread rom I flashed - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1073854
Instructions were - Procedure (ODIN !):
- Download and extract the firmware zip
- Download and extract the attached gt-p1000_mr_PIT.zip
- Download and extract the attached dbdata.zip
- Flash the firmware tar as PDA, repartition enabled, use the attached PIT
- After flash immediately boot into download mode again - wait for it to go to the samsung LOGO here as a whole heap of writing goes up the screen then it reboots. DO NOT TURN OFF UNTIL IT REBOOTS TO THE SAMSUNG LOGO...
- Flash dbdata.tar as PDA (NO repartition) in ODIN again.
- After flash immediately boot into recovery mode
- Wipe cache
- Wipe data / factory reset
- Wipe Dalvick cache
Then flash this in ODIN - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=593112&d=1305133135
This will root your device.
I then updated to this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074759
Cheers...
Added this set of instructions, it has pictures, remember there will be some differences... - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=596770&d=1305467639

Before you flash anything, kindly check if you have protected/locked/signed bootloaders.

Thanks for the quick replies guys. Do appreciate it. So regarding the bootloaders, what should I milk for?signed, secured??

Just a comment about the procedure above.....unless you have CWM you will not see an option for dalvick cache in the default recovery,at least for mine the last entry was for cache-no advanced features like battery wipe and dalvick......

[Q] Update ROM help needed

Hello,
as i have no access to development forum i have to ask here my question:
My current status is:
- have my Samsung Galaxy Note rooted using Zergrush Method
- rom: KKA
- kernel: AbyssNote v3.1
my questions are:
- how to flash newest stock rom LA3, which method to use CWM, mobile odin pro or Odin PC?
- do i have to reflash the kernel to stock kernel of KKA rom before i can flash the new stock rom?
I like to keep my device rooted with CWM if possible. If someone please who got time could give me a detailed guide step by step how todo it. Sorry for my english its not my native one .

You can download CWM or MobileOdin versions of the modem. I used the CWM version and added it I think as a flash update. Just go through each of the options till you get the one that lets you choose the downloaded modem file.

[Q] How to reflash rooted I9000 without Market

Hi guys,
Got myself between rock/hardspot. I'm trying to re-flash kernel on my I9000. Every time I try to flash via recovery (stock 3e), I get error saying failed E-signature verification.
I can't download any fixes from Market/Internet because of error: SIM not detected (this actually is *why* I want to reflash). However I CAN update via tar & Downloader using Odin 1.35, or from zip via stock recovery (3e). I can't flash *anything* (like ROM Manger or CWM) because of verification error above. Phone *does* appear to have CWM app installed, but it boots to stock 3e recovery *not* CWM recovery.
I spent over a week searching XDA and the web and tried many dozens of supposed solutions but can't find one that works. Most were either crapware or required Market access or ROM Manager.
Help! I have little hair left to pull out!
Details:
Model: Samsung I9000 (no suffix)
Current Kernel: Kernel_XWJW5.7z (2.6.35.7-I9000XWJW5-CL1045879) (downloaded this from web - not sure who produced it).

Flash a custom kernel or CF-Root to install unsigned zips.

What he said, gets you cwm.
Plus it doesn't look like you have a modem/baseband installed, that will need to be flashed via ODIN, regardless.

Still No Joy on flashing ROM without Market
Thanks thedefault, but still no joy. Same old problem "E:signature verification failed". I tried CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVK-v2.7-CWM3RFS.zip and CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS. This is the same old problem that's driven me batty for over a week - can't flash any zips. Any other suggestions?

How to install baseband/modem
Thanks nyloncrack. Excuse my ignorance, but where do I get "basebane/modem" to install? I thought this was included in Kernel(s). Note that I can't flash any zips because of E-signature problem, can only install via Odin.

Maybe signature check is enabled by default

Signature Verification IS on
thedefault:
Yes, signature verification is always on. (At least I can't figure out how to turn it off). I read in another thread that the stock Samsung recovery (3e) checks to make sure that the file was signed by Samsung. They further advised the enquirer to roll back to version 2e which did not include this. Of course, I can't get there from here.

But with CF-Root and custom kernel a custom recovery is used. No signature check at all.

Recovery that is in use
thedefault:
I'm not *running* the "custom kernel/custom recovery" - I'm trying to *flash* them. The kernel/recovery I'm *using* is the XXJW4 kernel and Samsung 3e recovery.
BTW: One Step Forward/One Step Back
I noticed that the CF-Root zip actually contained just a tar file. Eureka!, I can use Odin to flash it! But noooooo, after I did so, phone went into continuous-reboot-loop. Arrrrgh.

I rememberd that happend to me once but I found that reinstalling a full custom rom helped me out try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379650 it might work out.

Well, you obviously have flashed wrong cf-root kernel. Grab one that goes with your current rom (jw4, right?). Just flash correct kernel with Odin and it should work just fine
And there's many good guides/tutorials in general section which should be quite straight forward stuff..

Eureka, Success!
I finally got the phone rooted and working. For the benefit of others, I describe what I did:
1. Downloaded SU_i9000XXJVT.zip (non-rooted) that I stumbled across on the web).
2. Flashed PDA+PHONE files using Odin (CODE_I9000XXJVT_CL617736_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.md5 and MODEM_I9000XXJVT_REV_00_CL1064602.tar.md5).
3. Flashed kernel again with CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS.tar.
The phone booted as root, registered on network (data+voice) and everything worked. Joy!
I think (but cannot prove) that some of my earlier problems were caused by missing or hosed modem file.
Thanks to all who contributed guidance.

S5830 CF Root Kernel & ClockWorkMod for XWKTM

So I got my SGA back and decided to flash a fresh stock ROM. After I googled something about the latest ROM for Ace I found a recent firmware for Spain - XWKTM, so I flashed it via Odin.
Now, I needed to root my phone and got the zipped file from here: http://everythingprecise.blogspot.com/2012/03/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-ace-s5830.html.
But I want to flash CF root kernel and change the recovery with CWM. Should I proceed with flashing the said 2 files without worrying about probably bricking my phone? Just wanna make sure, of course.
See attached "About Phone" screeny. (if it helps)
