CyanogenMod 10.1 + Semaphore 3.2 + Modem kk4 ? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all
is possible to use cyanogenmod 10.1.3
with semaphore kernel 3.2.0 and modem Radio-CM7-ICS-KK4-Captivate-signed.zip ??
I am interested in KK4 modem

CM10.1 is Android 4.2.2 based ROM, Semaphore 3.0.0c is the right kernel.
Default CM10.1 UGKG3 modem works well in most places, why you want to change it?

I see mobile data works better with KK4 modem, in my country.

OK, I never had to change a modem, so wait for someone with more experience to answer this question.

Thanks for your comment

Changing modem is probably the most basic thing when it comes to flashing. Your ROM/kernel and bootloaders don't depend on it.
So flash away, you can flash whichever you want and as many times as you want, all it affects is your connectivity.

Ok tanks, i test kk4 ICS modem.

I should mention that you gotta flash the right modems zips. I believe it's the I9000 zips for the cappy (unless it changed since i last used my cappy).

Kernels/Modems

Hey guys I'm really new at this, can some someone explain what a Kernel/Modem is. I know what the Kernel is used for but, there are some many different Kernels that people use and I have no idea on how to pick which one is right for me. Currently I'm running Cognition 3.04 with Stock Kernel with Voodoo Lag fix.
a modem deals with signal and data speeds (different modems work better for people in different places) i9000 modems can only be used with i9000 roms and vice versa for the captivate roms (cognition)
modems thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835272)
a kernel deals with drivers (not 100% sure) oc/uv (overclock, undervolt), free ram, and tweaks that make it faster/smoother.
gb's kernel thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=887315)
seitron's kernel thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=828052)
if you want more clarifications just ask
ok so with my current configeration, ,I can run any captivate based rom right?(im running cog3.04) and say I wanted to try those i9000 roms I have to change my modem not my kernel, correct?

When you flash a rom it will change the kernel and modem
Any i9000 will come with compatible modem and kernel
Oh ok I see so just flash the rom, thanks for the help, greatly appreciated.

Help with jv rom versions.

Hi
I currently have an vodafone unlocked galaxy running bujv9 rom. and cf-root XWJVH kernel. phone is rooted.
I been looking at kernels which support voodoo sound and other stuff as my one does not.
How do i go from a jvh rom and kernel to say a jvr kernel and rom which supports the voodoo stuff.
Is it a simple wipe then CWM flash new rom then odin jvr kernel. or other way around. Not sure.
Sorry still learning galaxy flashing. well different from HTC flashing.
Cheers.
If you want to try latest rom and a kernel with all features flash stock JVS in odin and then flash Darkcore 4 or Semaphore 1.7 in odin

Your desired rom should have kernel so no need for flashing twice.
You will probably get away with factory reset and cwm flash. Any probs you may have to flash stock first.

There are apps that will do this, but may not work properly (depending on a lot of things). If you're unsuccessful with the app, or if you'd rather another way, the main to go about it is to flash a kernel that is already rooted.
Thanks for your reply, my problem is that i can't find the right cf-root kernal and also because phone locked to network my build number is bujv9,
Flash the stock jvX that you want first then flash the kernel from odin as pda,safe way

[Q] New on android and I had problems with kernel talondev

Hi all,
I'm new to android and some things I do not understand, for example I have the galaxy captivate with the following characteristic:
Rom Android 2.3.4 I897UCKH3
boog_kh3_kernel3
su-2.3.2-efgh-bin-signed.zip
I updated my cellphone using these files, and all works fine but I wanted install a new kernel the last talondev, but after install it I think that my sgs is on soft bricked, displays the logo of AT & T and then starts "loading talon...", but then restarts.
This kernel can be used with the rom? it is compatible? or What should I do to choose a kernel?
Best regards
Talon is I9000 port kernel you are using native I897 rom. Use Samurai, Corn kernel or Boog's kernel. Actually Im not sure there is a corn or samurai kernel for KH3. I know they have it for KJ roms.
I have to find kernels for KH3, right?
Thanks
Correct. Or update to a newer leak like KJ3 as a example.
And I can change to a custom rom? or that such the cm7 rom?
I talk to do this to exit the soft brick and have it back.
thanks
CM7 has its own special instructions. I haven't kept up with it so go to their thread and read. But ya you can change to custom roms like Fusion IX, Fasty and others that are based of a newer firmware version.

You need to flash back to boog kernel. If this does not work it is best you re-flash to stock KH3 with the one-click solution here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300843
Choose the one WITHOUT bootloaders since you already have those on the phone. It is safer that way.
Regarding CM7 ROMs. You must know they are completely different system compared to the normal Captivate ROMs. Read this thread before flashing:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=978150
Don't get me wrong. THEY ARE VERY GOOD CUSTOM ROMs...absolutely. But you cannot mix and match.....Follow CM7 instructions strictly.
thanks for the replies, I will be reading information about their opinions.
thank you very much , I'll let you know the results.

Flashing HP kernel

Hi,
First of all I have to say I'm really a noob in flashing etc, but I'm trying to learn
I am interested in flashing the horsepower kernel.
I read in the Hp thread that it is only compatible with V20 l/j/g/i/c/e.
I check on my phone and I have V20m...
Is that going to be an issue ? I'm not interested in flashing a custom rom, I just want the extra performance So I'd rather keep the stock rom
And I also have a few questions about the kernel itself. Are there any downsides (apps that won't work, ...)? If ICS is released for the P990, can I just update or do I have to flash the original stock kernel back ? I also read of people that had troubles with baseband, is that something that is kernelrelated of romrelated ?
thx
Just flash the kernel and see what happens
If it doesnt work, restore your backup you made in recovery before you flashed
I've seen people complain that they can't play games like PES2012 with certain kernels.
I think when ICS comes out you can update regardless of what kernel you are using. From my understanding when you flash a rom you overwrite kernel and BB, so if you want a different kernel and BB you have to change that after you flash a rom, but you'll have to confirm this, I'm not sure this is accurate.

The ROMs which have Kernel built in....but then you can also use custom kernels which are used to optimize the performance of the device...and ROM flashing does not overwrite any BB....but yes...you have to flash through Smartflash method for changing a BB. Changing a BB will wipe the data for sure....but then after the flashing ROM you also need to change the RIL accordingly....
If you have the wrong baseband, can't you just flash the baseband that worked on the stock rom ?

According to Sreeprajay flashing a kernel will not change your BB, so you will keep stock BB.

you are right....else i would just flash a kernel for the ROM and jump to different BB for different ROMs....unfortunately it does not..... ;(
testing ROMs will become an exciting game...just a few mins

thank u..

It takes about 10 seconds to flash a modem. Most of them are small files. Just flash them give them some time for testing and get a new one if the one you tried does not work.
