Hi Guys,I was quite surprise that cwm recovery is already installed.can someone enlighten me?I was previously using Motorola Atrix and it was different.just hope to understand more on SGN.

Kernels nearly always contain CWM Recovery, so when you flash a kernel, you get the CWMR as well.

Thanks for your reply!you have really brighten my knowledge on SGN.

are kernels ICS and/or GB compatible only or can we flash any kernel on any rom ?

"are kernels ICS and/or GB compatible only or can we flash any kernel on any rom ? "
Nope. ICS kernels only work on ICS roms and vice versa for GB kernels.

Ics update

Sorry for asking this late but I was out of internet access for the last couple of weeks. Just a question when updating to ics though. Do I need to revert to stock rom or can i update via a custom rom?

Check dr.ketans thread in the stickies for installing stock roms.
It depends if you're currently on ics repack or dangerous kernel. If you're on lpf or lpy, or other later India kernel, it's safest to flash a GB kernel, before flashing a full ROM.
Any big writes to any of above kernels will cause fatal damage, whether instantly or not.
there's also a great thread by chasmodo on the topic of ics upgrades/downgrades.
Wish you well.

[q] which ics roms are safer as of now?

1) which ics roms r safer as of now?
2) is criskelo rom safe?
The latest stock ROMS that came out last month or so I've heard.They say brick issue is solved now with the CFROOT 5.6.Can't confirm though I wish someone could.
All cyanogenmod roms are said to have a kernel that's "safe" from the brick bug and the aosp ui of cyanogenmod roms greatly trump in comparison to the touchwiz ui!
I'd recommend CM9 roms as they're free from the brick bug.

As long as you flash abyss kernel before you flash the rom, you ll be fine. Also with the rom make sure you run a safe ketnel like franco, speedmod and a few mirea

Notecore is not a ROM, it is kernel . And as long as you are on safe ICS or CM kernel, no need to flash Abyss kernel. You can wipe/flash roms on safe ICS kernels, make sure to read the selected rom OP before flashing it.
opps...my bad, i mean cleannote rom. the.problem is he is not in safe kernel, he is using stunner 1.4.19 version which is not safe. i knw can flash abyss then flash some other safe rom..say if he wan to flash cm9/cleannote, after fullwipe under abyss recovery, can he flash either 1? again, thanks for replying.

Yes, if he is not on safe kernel then using Abyss kernel is good, you can flash any custom rom once you are on safe kernel.
But the best you can do is to flash pre-rooted GB rom using odin and then flash whatever rom you want.
yea..but him wanted to flash abyss then flash other rom..doesnt wanna go bk GB to start all over again...

All roms other than created by OEMs (Samsung in this case) are custom hence cleannote and all other CM, AOKP, MIUI and TW based roms modified by XDA developers are custom
Flashin stock GB is best method, you can also use abyss kernel and flash other roms using cwm recovery.
Yes but no need to flash abyss kernel you can just flash first notecore v14 or speedmode kernel then flash to your preferred custom rom.

Right, I already told him as long as he is on safe ICS custom kernels he is good to flash any rom, but he is familiar with abyss kernel and if comfortable using it then it's good to use abyss kernel as well. Moreover he is not on safe kernel and has to flash that as well, so it's just a matter of choice using custom ICS or Abyss
Yes, these kernels are also available in cwm flashable .zip files as well, so you can flash them using cwm recovery too.
thanks a lot guys..i will tell my fren then let him choose which way he wat to use.:thumbup:

edit: my fren did this--> flash abyss, reboot recovery, fullwipe, flash alliance rom(latest), reboot. Everything is fine now. Thanks.

Stock XXLSC & XXLSA safe kernel?

Are these kernels safe for factory reset or to format the cash? I see these stock roms with stock kernels, are they safe?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
The kernels that are with the ROMs build from xxlsc&xxlsa is a safe kernel which is philz kernel unless your on alliance rom then its twrp kernel.both are safe
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA Premium HD app
It has been mentioned that the stock kernels have been patches by Samsung to avoid the bricking in some way but I do not know if it has Ben that extensively tested
I'm using "as i9000" stock rom. I'm sure it's not a philz kernel cause it doesn't have his info when I bootup into recovery. It's a great rom the fastest so far, just a few freezes when booting. I just want to be safe if I do a factory reset.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
For now better use Phil kernel till the official sources are out and it's completely confirmed
philz 3.71 bestest!

Help noob

I have stock ICS 4.0.4 rom and I want to root
my Note and flash to Cyanogen ROM or paranoid rom.
1 question: Will I be able to flash using Philz Cwm6 Kernel, or should I use other Kernel?
2. Does a stock ICS rom is a peoblem flashing to Jelly Bean Cyanogen or is the kernel which is important for flashing?
P.S Sorry if I wrote something because I'm still noob on phone modding.

just go to install a safe kernal here for ur ICS4.0.4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191
my advise is do a backup using the safe kernal b4 flashing any roms it might help u in case something when wrong.
if u really don't know how to flash CM u can go find a rom manager it might be the easiest way for noob.
Flashing cm requires first flashing a cm 10 or 10.1 kernel, have a look in chasmodo's kernel repository in the stickies somewhere for cm based kernels.
Doesn't matter what rom you're on, you're right it's the kernel that's the important part.
Also if flashing cm base, make sure you perform full wipes before and after flash for best stability.

No, you need a specific cm kernel. Otherwise you'll face boot loops.

You won't be able to boot into ics, but once you've flashed cm kernel, then reboot into recovery and flash CM rom and then gapps, then do 3 wipes before boot.

Philz has fixed th error 7 on the 3.99 release. So you can go ahead and do the formats and flash the cm rom. There is actually no need to flash the th cm kernel first.
I have done it myself a couple of days ago
