Cm7 to cm9 - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to simply flash cm9 via cwm when upgrading from cm7 (and thus not use acme installer)? I'd imagine a full wipe would be necessary but other than that it seems logical that this should work.
Thanks for any info.

As long as you wipe everything - data, cache, Dalvik cave, and system, you can upgrade from CM7 to CM9 in CWMR.

[Q] HALP.... installing cm7 rc1 please

How the hell do i get cm7 on my i9000?
Im running the stock rooted 2.3.4 with the help of odin and a nice tutorial.
Can someone please point me to the proper method {tutotial} ...
This is not my first Android but is my first Samsung and i swear this is killing me
thanks in advance
You need to flash stock froyo, then a kernel with cwm, before you flash cm7 in recovery make sure you go to mounts and storage, format system, data, cache, datadata and wipe dalvik cache, then flash rc1
Hope this is clear for you

Go ahead and do it.Just be sure to fullwipe in order to avoid any problems.
As said, full wipe on ics before flashing, then after flashing gapps, clear cache and dalvik, you'll be fine.

Installing CM 10.1 on p1000

Hey, im a noob so heres my problem, ive experimented alot on my p1000 and one thing that bothers me alot was the video playback which was either choppy or laggy on CM so ive always restocked it back to GB. I think the solution for this is to use another kernel other than CwM. IS there any other kernels that i could try, the ones that could result in very good hd playback once im on a custom rom?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda app-developers app
First kernel and CWM are two different things CWM is one of the recovery mode.
For HD videos... You can use CM 10 or 9 or give AOKP SGT7 a try.... They are much stable...
Sent from Android
Ok so kernel and cwm are different i get it, but could you tell me how to install the heimdall kernel on p1000 step by step? Ive read from somewhere that it could improve hd video playback. And ive already used cm 9 stable and there is no cm 10 stable yet before but the problem persisted. . .

Heimdall is a tool to flash ROM/kernel.
It is not a kernel. You read wrongly.
Find the same article and read again with the new understanding of what heimdall/kernel/cwm are, and see if you can make out what is that that was recommended.

Yes you're right, I kinda read wrong, the article said about the humberos, now that is a kernel right? I've installed it, and I realized that its a modified version of CwM but the real question is that do I have to keep using the firmware from humberos or could I use other custom roms like SGT7 aokp or Cyanogenmod?
It should be fine using it with other ROMs as long as both are from the same android version

Humberos is the guy's nickname. His ROM and kernel may also be referred to as Humberos.
But he made kernels back from Gingerbread days.
So we better know which one you flash.
You can use his kernel, for example his JB kernel in, in cm10 and aokp jellybean.
you can use his ICS kernel in AOKP ICS, CM9, and so on.
For CM10.1 it is yet a different kernel.
And it is not just different cwm, the kernel itself is different.

Well ur explanation makes sense, I installed humberos and then humberos's cm 10.1 but the problem was with the camera so I decided to install aokp Sgt7 jb and then the aokp logo goes into boot loop. I then powered off, did the power + volume up and realised that I had installed the cyanogenmld cwm over the humberos. Now what to do?

That's because you installed 4.1.2 ROM with 4.2.1 kernel... It is better for you I'd you restock then update again... And please please please install the ROM with it's kernel because both of them are good AOKP or CM
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Actually from the description, installing aokp sgt7 jb after running cm10.1 should not be an issue as long as you do the 3 wipes (cache, data, dalvik-cache).
aokp sgt7 will replace the cm10.1. But nevertheless, if it is still looping, do the restock.
They are all using CWM 6.x nowadays, it doesn't really matter, but the kernel has to be for the right ROM.
BTW, too many people think cm10.1 is just a little update from cm10.
It is not. It is a completely new framework. Treat it as a different ROM.
So all I gotta do is restock back to GB, root GB, install the humberos cm 10 kernel from SD after wiping everything, and then install aokp Sgt 7 or cm 10 right?

ok well ive flashed the overcome kernel and then I flashed the overcome 4.1 aka the overcome experience and its actually quite fantastic. On my way to flash JB from CM. btw do I have to register the divx licenses? as well as other licenses?
ok im using overcome 4.1.0 and its fabulous. but before I go towards JB, can someone pls explain how to wipe the 3 caches using the overcome kernel, since its quite new to me? also when flashing to cm jb, do I have to clear the caches and then install from internal sd card? Is that how I upgrade it, not clean install it?
ok so I flashed aokp and the big problem is that it installs cwm over the overcome kernel and so the video problem still persists. Isnt there a way to remove the cwm recovery from the aokp rom?
You got it all wrong.
in P1000, recovery is included in the kernel.
Overcome kernel has cwm 5.0
Aokp kernel and cm kernel has cwm 6.0.
Wipe cache and wipe data are there in main menu of cwm.
Wipe dalvik cache is in Advanced menu.
You have overcome ROM 4.1, boot to cwm and flash aokp a few times until it is done, then flash gapps.
Reboot.
There is never a need to remove cwm. Where do you read such idea?

I didn't read it, I just thought about it. Anyhow, I flashed aokp a few times just like you said, and flashed gapps (obviously), but result is still the same. I'll post a video ASAP on the video playback performance that I'm still complaining about...
Video is a kernel/codec related problem.
It is not logical to link it to gapps or cwm.

Kernel Info Not Updating on Phone Specs

Hi,
I'm using Maclaw Cyanogenmod 10.2 and have flashed a few kernels but the kernel info never updates in the phone specs, it stays at . I wipe the cache and dalvik and flash in CWM. Am I missing a step or is this just a bug in the ROM?
Thanks.
I noticed that but assumed the updates were for cm10.2. I'm running cm10.1

[Q] Kernel issue

Noob here so:
I just flashed vanir Rom and i was looking for a kernel so i tried iodak and warewolf but it bouth said after i flashed them "lot's of menu stop and other things stop" Hope someone understand what i say. I searched and i coudn't find something that could helped me. I have to say i searhed for about 4 hours before i asked. P.S. Made the account after i searched so i could put the question.:crying:
So my quiestion is: What kernel i have to use, what version? I tried warewolf CM 10.1 and stock too and v8 from iodak
At first we need to know which Vanir you're on, 4.4.2 or 4.3?
And you should ALWAYS wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery prior to kernel, otherwise you may run into problems.
The kernels you use should be any kernel versions and thus be compatible with most Roms.
Try iodak 9.5 and it should work.

I have 4.3 btw you suggest to go for 4.4.2?
I wiped every time sir.
When i make a backup with rom manager it will save the rom and the kernel?
A backup will save the whole thing boot image, system, data etc
Vanir 4.4.2 has definitely a even better performance and with iodak's anykernel 9.5 it's awesome. Give it a try I'd say but you should wipe /system within CWM.
