[Q] Flashing CNA 1.4 over Onecosmic 3.1

Hello! I'm thinking of flashing the latest release of Codename Android(1.4.0) on to my Samsung Galaxy S i9000, currently running OneCosmic's RC 3.1. I hace no problems with the rom but i would like mor options etc.
In the CNA thread it states that a full wipe is neccesary, but I have read in the thread that you dont have to do a data wipe if you're comming from 1.3.3. Now, my question is this, do I have to wipe data comming from OneCosmic RC 3.1? And if I have to, is Titanium Backup working properly for ICS?
Thanks!

It's better to make a full wipe.
And yes, TB works with ICS ...
So it's no problem to make a full wipe and restore apps with TB. Only a few minutes of work ...

[Q] Dark Knight V4

V4 was released today and I have the following questions:
1) Download link not working
2) Does the modem have better wifi reception
3) Are there any included launchers
Thanks

1) http://www.mediafire.com/?3d6da7j5i306v7u - That link works.
2) Test different modems and see which you get the best with, at the minute my best is JVU.
3) Probably not, check? Also you can get more from the market / on here.

2. All Dark Knight Roms got no Modem pre installed. If you got a modem, u will keep it after flashing from ur earlier installations.
3. Try Nova Launcher or Apex Launcher from market.
Dark Knight rom got an pre installed Nova Launcher and this one runs very smooth (except the sporadic rom bugs )

TV
someone can say if digital tv is working in dark knight 4?

In this case how can I flash KB3 and where can I find it?
Also would you suggest formatting to ext4 and how should I do it so that I don't lose anything?

Hey guys, i flashed V4 and now my phone is stuck at the bootanimation (i had it booting for 20 min). I did a full wipe, wiped cache, wiped dalvik and even tried to reflash. Any suggestions?
edit: i got it working after 3rd reflash

I didnot like it.....

My suggestion: wait for an update
I have tried switching from V3 to V4 yesterday. I encountered problems with Titanium and GPlay kept FCing so I returned to my backup of the stable V3.
V4 was rushed out so I´m waiting for the next update.

Did you directly flash the ROM ? In that case you may face FCs often.
Better take a nandroid backup.
wipe cache and data
flash the rom
Rebot and let the phone start
Go to recovery and then from backuo and restore -> advanced restore -> select the backup you did -> restore data
I moved from Elite V7.1 to Dark Knight 4 and dint face any such issues.

in my case titanium crashed while restoring and couldn't complete the process.I think I'll stay on gb rom all the way till a gb-stable-and-smooth- like ics rom comes out.

I think it includes the devil kernel because I when i flashed V3 over stock ROM it changed to Devil Kernel

Stability
I can confirm that Dark Knight v.3 is much more stable than v.4.
Upgrading to v.4 I found these bugs:
1) After the first reboot I activated the wi-fi toogle and it started to switch on and off repeatedly. The system error that appears every time forces you to reboot the device.
2) Many users reported problems with titanium backup (I didn't try it)
3) Trying to move an application to USB (SD) causes a hotboot ( !!!! )
4) The new "Dark Knight" application crashes if you try (f.ex.) to install a new theme or a new battery icon ... after this crash you can no more change the battery icon from the ROM control menu.
I upgraded from Dark Knight 3, wiping everything before flashing as recommended. I made a second try upgrading from the original gingerbread 2.3.3 by Samsung (and wiping everything of course). The result was the same in both cases.

Stable DK4
If someone has flashed a stable DK V4 pls post the procedure that you have performed

Thought of going after this rom. But its better to wait for some better version in future with lesser bugs

My worm suggestion is to go with 4.1.2.More stable and everything works.
You can flash 4.2.1 without wipe over this(not recomended).But there will be a time till 4.2.1 be fully functional.
Try 4.1.2 you won't regret.
Many regards

Thx for reply
I'll try 4.1.2 and in the future I'll try 4.2.1 if i want it... xD
For installation... can I flash over a clean 2.3.6 directly or i need flash a JB or ICS first (as CM)?

You can flash over a clean 2.3.6 but first read tutorials. Basics:
1. Get root permisions
2. Install CWM
3. Get your ROM (zip file).
4. Then follow ROM installation intructions.

Hi again,
I install 4.1.2 before and all was ok... then try 4.2.1 and had very problems
Install from CWM it's ok, but when reboot and start config... only have this messages:
"Installatiewizard is gestopt"
And FC, FC, FC.....
Of course i try to install 4 times and ALWAYS I did 3 wipes....
Can help me pls?

I can not create a new user in the terminal (pm create-user name) and I can not create a new user with the user managemed app, my question is if I am doing any wrong or if this ROM (Beast 4.2.1-20121214) can not have multi user.
Sorry for my english, but it is not my first language.

[Q] Quick question will +REP

Basically I want to get smooth flash player working on my P990 and by looking at this old thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498458
Some guy says that he gets 720p smoothly over Flash Player with temasek's KANG ROM so the question is this:
I currently have a offical v20q rooted and installed CWM recovery, I downloaded the zip temasek's KANG ROM, so what now? Go to recovery and just flash? Or do I need to wipe format system or what?
Just tell me the few steps I'm missing do I need to do something in recovery before going to "install zip from SD card"?
PS: If somehow I don't like the temasek's KANG ROM, how do I revert back? Just make a backup of the current v20q and reflash the backup right?

I don't understand why you want to go CM7. It's old now. I personally never got smooth 720p on Temasek CM7. I recommend you to install stock based ICS ROM if you want to stay near stock or CM10 based ROM if you want AOSP feel. These ROMs should have even smoother Flash Player.

I would also recommend an oval stock rom. Like django manuchete or optithrust. They are fast stable and battery friendly.

I'm sorry for bothering you guys but I dont wanna fail WILL +REP
I decided to try out the "DjangoManouche" ROM, because it's stock based as you say.
These are the steps:
1 - Go to this Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2020737
2 - Download the amazing AIO tool by Spyrosk and follow his guide to change partition layout from old to new (if you come from GB roms) and unlock bootloader
3 - Install 30 based CWM 5 or 6 (see OP)
4 - Install DjangoManouche
5 - Reboot After Install
6 - Enjoy
So if I got this right, I should go in the AIO tool and do option 4 first which is: " Change Partitions from OLD to NEW layout and vice versa",
then I should Install "30 based CWM 5 or 6", what a hell is that? I already have stock GB v20q rooted with CWM installed, what is a "30 based CWM 5 or 6 and where do I get it?
Thanks alot for your time, will +REP!

First, put the rom on external sd. Then, use option 4, you can automatically choose a CWM recovery which will be installed.

[Q] Mixed ROM and Kernel

Hi i'm new here, just installed Carbon Rom JellyBean v1.7 Release and the kernel is from the ROM itself (3.0.31-CM-g209ebe6)
Question is:
1) Can i install SpeedMod N7000 Jelly Bean Kernel on that ROM?
2) If yes, Can this ROM be installed with ANY N7000 Kernel?
Big thanks and sorry if i'm being too noob
And excuse my english, too

No, the speedmod is for the Touchwiz based [TW] ROMs. Carbon ROM is CyanogenMod [CM] based. So not all kernels can be installed on any ROM, when u read a kernel thread, you'll have the compatibility of the kernel with ROMs written in that. Never flash any kernel on an incompatible ROM, may lead to a brick.

Oh i see. So is it okay if i install CM9 Kernel on a CM10.1 ROM?

I am not sure about tthat, but better not flash it on CM10 as most likely it won't work, CM 10 is a totally new version. Better not try it.

No. You cant flash different version kernel on different roms. CM10.1 only supports CM10.1 kernels. Currently there are NX kernel and Asylum kernel for this.
Remember never flash different kernel on different rom. This will brick your device.

Alright thanks. Any recommendations of kernel that can do over clock and gaming ? Currently my Real Racing 3 just plays at 12fps.. That's unplayable for me. Thanks before
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2

NX kernel for CM based ROMs, check out the various kernels in the Android Development thread... Many CM based ROMs will have the CPU frequency option in the performance control menu. Careful, overclocking can have adverse effects, may fry up the motherboard...

Thanks, that kernel should have increase my performance right?
But signal problem was reported if i'm not mistaken. So i'm a bit confused as i do a lot of phone calls.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192893&highlight=nx+kernel Read the features of the kernel in this thread. No there wont be any connectivity issues, NX kernel or the CM kernel are stable ones. If there are some issues, then flash a stable version of those kernels.

OK, when the process is successful, will i lose my data?

If you just flash the kernel then no you won't. You lose the data only if you do a Factory reset (Data wipe from the recovery). You have already installed Carbon ROM now just go to recovery and flash the .zip kernel file.

Then what about if i want to Change ROM , but it requires wiping data. If i restore the CWM backup , then it'll get to the previous ROM, no?

If i restore backup from CWM, will i get ROM A or still ROM B ?

If your ROM A is completely backed up. Yes after wiping data and restoring you will get ROM A and ROM B will be completely gone

Yes you can, back up contacts using google account or even via apps like go backup. Apps back up can be done via Titanium Backup, it is very convenient.

Well then thanks guys , really appreciate your help
