[Q] About Semaphore kernel flashing

hi,
i have stock Galaxy s i9000 with 2.3.4 XXJVP.. i want to install Semaphore kernel... hoping it will improve overall performance and give even better performance with games like asphalt 6,,..
all i want to know is that can flash it over my stock with SGS kernel flasher??? or are there any other pre requirements for it???
or is there any better kernel for playing games lag free??
THX

Ny reply??? :-(

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 ?

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...

[KERNEL] PimpMyCpu: OC/UV profiles and per application OC/UV !

Hi,
Here is the first release of a PimpMyCpu compatible kernel. I wanted a kernel as stock as possible with only OC/UV added trought my application PimpMyCpu.
I will not go trought the PimpMyCpu possibility as it's described in the previous links, but essentially it allow you to use OC/UV profiles and rules and even assign an OC/UV profile to every application on your device !
- Based on XXLA* kernel sources
- Only changes made are OC/UV capabilities trought PimpMyCpu
- Packaged like CF-Root: contain latest su and busybox binary, Superuser.apk, CWMManager.apk and of course CWM recovery (same as CF-Root XXLA*)
! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK !
Attached is a CWM flashable .zip and a (probably) Odin compatible .tar

Nice to have more kernels to try

Iam trying right now, report later. Looks all ready good.

Hello mate and welcome...
From description in your OP, if someone don't want to overclock or undervolting then your kernel will react same as CF-root kernel right???
Cause you write that is as stock as the CF-root but with the ability to OC/UV...
Or your kernel contains more tweaks/tricks than CF-root even if we don't OC or UV???
Thanks...

Probably a kernel issue, Try switching a different Supported Kernel, Also post in his ROM thread and / or search to see if anyone is having the issue.

Install SpeedMod 3-9 kernel - it solves both WiFi and BT issues and is excellent on battery life.
I am using it for 3 days now and still very impressed.

Notecore V4 with Criskelo 9 here and no problems with WIFI and BT.

thanks a LOT...I have some stupid question though...
it says "These all are stock ROMs and this can be flashed using PC odin without exclamation mark or raising flash counter. Read installation note at end of list"
my phone gives the exclamation mark when it turns on...does that mean that I can not install these roms??
and also I don't know which country is my phone from...I mean I don't know which exact firmware I should download...all I know is that I have the LC1 kernel, the phone was brought from finland and I am currently using it here in bangladesh...
I am so sorry is just that I don't know where to start and I am panicking right now...

No, it doesn't mean you can't flash them. It just means that if you flash them, they won't raise the flash counter and won't cause the yellow triangle to appear. You can flash them safely. If you still have the yellow triangle after flashing them then use TriangleAway to remove that triangle and reset the flash counter.

There's another option though, you can try and download CyanogenMod9. It's only 150MBs.
Either way, good luck!

really I can use any country's firmware??so what are actually the things I should look out for when downloading a rom??the kernel??I mean what are the precautions I should be aware of before downloading a rom??
how does the cyanogen mod9 works??the thing is I need to flash my note becouse it is stuck in the boot logo...then it turns off without booting properly...is there any risk I should take into account before flashing cyanogen mod9??

No, you won't need stock ROM if you are flashing a custom ROM. Just follow the instructions very carefully. Most important of all is to flash a safe kernel to wipe. NEVER wipe using stock ICS kernel as that will brick your phone (read about emmc bug).
Flashing CM9 works like any other ROM. You download the safe kernel and flash it using Odin PC then boot into recovery to wipe data and cache. Then copy the ROM zip file to your memory card or internal storage and flash it from recovery mode.

---------- Post added at 11:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:37 PM ----------
Also you might want to know that you will lose all Touchwiz applications when you flash CM9 like S Memo and S Pen. You can flash it until you get your hands on the stock ROM later so you can use your phone now.

Yeah and when you get around to it use mobile odin to flash a stock rom

guys thanks a lot for the replies...
so here is the thing I can flash any rom i want into it right??
but I have to use a safe kernel...my question was can I use any a kernel that's different from the kernel that's on the phone?? (XXLC1)??
oki thanks a lot for the replies...I wil ltry the CMW mod9 way...I don't use s pen or s note anyway...I need the phone to work..
guys another question though...since my phone is stuck in the boot logo then it just turns black(the display of course)
won't this prevent me from flashing cm9 into it??I can still get into recovery mode and download mode...plus mine have a rooted gingerbread stock rom 2.3.6 that is apparently "soft bricked" or needs to be flashed...are there any other option such as cm9??I mean there are a lotta bugs in the CM9...maybe an older costum rom??should I get the safe kernel for cm9 before installing cm9??
thanks a again for all the help...

Nope. You don't need a working phone to flash ROMs and kernels. As long as recovery and download modes are working then you are fine.
Just boot into download mode and flash ANY safe kernel using Odin and then you can wipe data and flash any ROM you want from recovery.
For safe kernels, there are a couple of them. There's Notecore, speed mod and the one included with CM9 (might be speeemod, not sure). Check the forum you will find many of them.
I think you already have a safe kernel though. GB's stock kernel is safe as far as I know. But to be on the safe side, follow the instructions on CM9's site to the letter and you will have a working phone.

SPEEDMOD AMD NOTECARE ARE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH CM9. if you have speedmod or notecore installed cm9 will NOT boot
you need a non touchwiz kernel
you can download the cm9 kernel from this link... Have the cm9 zip ready to flash on the sdcard and run it. It is safe to wipe without worry about hardbrick omce cm9 kernel is insyalled.

"CriskeloRom Note V7 No Wipe

CriskeloRomNOTE.v7-MD5-5F1906B96CA2380265104AC12D7EEF5C.zip
NOTE CriskeloRom V7

• Kernel 4.1 AbyssNote
• Full support for BLN
• New and improved dialpad
• More wallpapers in the stock application
• Repaired, Select Wallpapers
• Jkay v13.5.1 + Spanish
• Improved response when an application
• More things that I remember and all of the previous version"
so basically it says kernel 4.1 abyssnote...does that mean that I have to install such kernel to flash this rom??
also what does "No wipe" means??that if I wipe data before flashing will it brick my phone??
I am sorry i these questions may seem stupid and very bugging I just don't want to take chances before flashing...thanks again for all the help though!!

Abyssnote is a GB based safe kernel. You cam flash that. Abyss is safe to wipe from and so is your stock gb kernel. Just do notwipe if you are on a 4.0 based kernel that is not a safe kernel. All kernels in the post i did above are safe. All gb kernels are safe to wipe in. It just says no wipe because it doesnt require one if going from certain other roms. You shoukd wipe if you choose that rom...
Flash it with pc odin with a wipe... So long as your not on ICS based kernel the wipe itsrlf should not brivk you..

In this case you just have to flash the JB Speedmod kernel the same way you flash previous one. The phone is not booting because of having an ICS kernel on JB rom.

If you want all the Samsung features then check AryaMod rom.
If you are OK with AOSP, cm 10.2 or omni 4.4 are great roms. It's up to you to try and decide which one suits you the best.
This time for rooting and cwm, use Philz kernel. Methods and explanation in his thread in the Original Development Section.

Sure, I'm very ok with AOSP and I was thinking about cm 10.2!
Please, clear me up if first of all I have to install the Philz kernel or the rom cm 10.2! (that wasn't the last question! )

First root using Philz kernel.. Then back up your efs folder. Then flash the rom or your choice. Custom rom can only be flashed using cwm recovery.

AryaMod v3 is very good and smooth stock LTA based TW rom. I'm on it since it was issued. As the owner set v4 will be issued in few days. You can try it.
