[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?

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 ?
My Base version is I9000XXJVT

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...

Want to update ics

Yes i want to update to ICS. I have previously tried but ended in bootloop.
My current configuration is.
Firmware: 2.3.5
Baseband 19000XXJVT
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-19000XXJVT-CL617736
[email protected] #Semaphore_1.9.1bm
Can i just go into CWM and install

It depends which ICS Rom you want to use, theres Team Hacksung's ICS Port or One Cosmic's, imo TeamHacksungs one is the better choice, its easier to flash and to me, its slightly faster and more things in the Rom are working, if you want to flash team HackSung's one then just create a backup and flash over your current Rom if you want to use One Cosmics port, then you need to flash it over a Cyanogen Mod base Rom, simply flash a CM7 Rom, factory wipe, then flash the ICS Rom over it
(Be sure to hit the thanks button below the message if i helped)

[PRO][KERNEL] Riyal-based kernel with better touchscreen precision & SE logo

Hi, this is my first kernel, this based on the latest Ultima ICS kernel from riyal, with two minor tweaks
-now touchscreen reponse while swiping is 4px instead of 9px, so no more bumpy movements while draging items
-official "Sony Ericsson" boot logo
Information about the touchscreen problem (if you have not noticed it):
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/40474
the problem is present in latest FXP (but probably not in next's) and also in stock kernel ICS
The solutions was 99% done by nicklas lof, here:
http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/22164/
Works in Stock ICS, 431 and 587, it should work with FXP releases too
Installation:
Flash kernel using fastboot
Flash original Riyal wifi Modules using CWM
Riyals kernel thread is here
I do not deserve any credits on this, I just moved a line in code to compile and changed logo. :good:

What is Stock ICS 538? or you mean 587

the recovery are same or did u update it too ?

I have to install the img with fastboot ... And I have everything right???

Thanks for this kernel. will give it try one of these days

New Kernel for PRO [MK16a/i]
Thanks dafsoftware :good:
So just to clarify. Everything is the same as Ultima ICS Kernel v1.4 with the changes you made for the touchscreen precision and SE-X logo. The WiFi modules to flash are also of the v1.4 too right?
I'll try this when you confirm my query, as I am running on the Stock ICS MK16a 4.1.B.0.587 (US) build. I'll try to post any issues that I come across after flashing
[email protected]
MK16a Rooted, BL Unlocked
Kernel: LuPuS-PRo-v3-LiNaRo
Stock ICS ROM .587
BB 77

You are right, this is based in Ultima ICS v1.4, in fact Riyal already has this in his sourcecode, so next's versión should already have this fix, you have to use v1.4 modules

After you flash the kernel you have to flash latest wifi modules from riyal, using CWM

Why now 4px? Was Gingerbread not 2px?

I think GB was 2px, but with the current driver is quite hard to tap on links at 2px, I will compile one at 2px if you want to try

I use this kernel with stock ICS 587 and my phone gets freeze every time I unplug from charger and PC.
Anyone has the same problem?

Can you please update stock kernel to use this fix.
Or give some link to add recovery to stock kernel.
Thanks,
Rajesh

This is based on latest riyal changes, I think it has voltages messed up, so I will have to build it from stock kernel someday. I dont know how to add recovery to it.

I am, but not exactly when disconnecting the charger, only when its charging and very randomly, I think the source I am using has a messed up voltage table, I need to find the original voltage tables to fix it.

OK - after reading more it sounds like there has been some structural change to the driver model (something that needs fixed at a deeper level). Anyway, it would be great if you could additionally provide us with a ROM set at 2px just so we can see for ourselves.

Ext4
Does this kernel support the Ext4 partition? Great kernel by the way...
Edit : and.... Swap partition?

Even better than that, I notice that the Touch Move app has a "tune" mode which allows the user to tune the sensitivity themself. It's currently only compatible with a couple of GSII custom kernels:
http://tegrak2x.blogspot.co.uk/2011/10/touch-move-tune-compatible-kernels.html?m=1
It would be interesting to see if we could get Touch Move Tune working on Xperia devices too.

best kernel

Hey guys im a newbie to captivate and its developments and i need your help..............
i came from the htc g2 where there is no needed for flashing kernels for backing up roms/restoring or for wifi issues, everything was pretty much straight forward after root , but with the captivate you need a specific kernel for somethings to work...i need to backup roms and restore it......so my question which kernel comes alreaady rooted/hack to flash with odin and support wifi,clockwork,backup with clockwork recovery and everything ?
plus after flashing the kernel can i flash a recovery via rom manager?
i want a kernel that supports must miui roms and asop roms (ex: ics, jellybean)
and flashing kernels dosent break/erase root right?
PS: does a rom come with its own kernel?

do i lose root or have to root everytime i flash a new kernel
or when i flash a rom

Devil Kernel is best on JB ROMs. Corn Kernel on GB. Every ROM comes with a kernel in it. It depends on the ROM. Reading is important.

Ok...so I rooted with corn kernel and flashed xm7...but asphalt 7 is too slow...can I flash a kernel to make the game faster ex: devil kernel and keep the Tom with root

[Q] Kernel issue???

Hi porters, I think I am at my wits end...I have a spice mi410 (a variant of the ideos x6) and i've been pretty sick of gingerbread... want to flash ics. So far only edowar's ics a4 worked... The rest, including icecoldsandwich, miui v4.... after flashing, just gets stuck on the "android technology" boot screen... I've done everything right, including restoring from nb0, installing cwm, wipe data, cache, dalvik, even the /system itself..... i think might be kernel issue, anything other than 2.6.32 never worked. i'm lucky that edowar's a4 is on .32, but i wanted to flash miuiv4 badly. any good advice??? :'(

flash sharp rom or andro-id rc3 via sutlr you will get new baseband for newer 35.7 kernel,, and than you can flash any rom or any 35.7 base kernel..

As abenagiel said, it's very simple.
Try to find SUT LR setup in the forum, install it, then download RC3 by TJ style, flash it through SUT LR, then download MIUI V4 by RCSET, posted by COMDEVX in development section, flash that through recovery and enjoy .......
