Flash question and understanding.... And a basic question

Hey.
I want to buy a SGN but I'm aware of the emmc brick bug.
Tell me if I'm right:
If my galaxy is rooted and on a safe kernel like Notecore, I can make a data reset in recovery right?
But if I'm not on safe kernel use mobil Odin or just Odin to downgrade to GB wipe and flash afterwards. Is this also correct?
If I'm on safe ICS and i Want to use a CM Rom, I can also wipe data and the bug won't come, because CM9 doesn't use Samsungs repositories. Is this correct?
So that means, if I'll use TW (ICS) with a safe kernel or CM9 or CM10, I could wipe data with no problem?
What is about wiping boot and system?
I hope you can answer me.
And another one:
Would you upgrade from a S2 or do you would wait for other devices.
Thanks

Wait for the note 2, it will be introduce in aug.29, i know you would wait for it. Because samsung know about defective emmc chip of note1 they will implement a new safer emmc chip that it will be brick bug free. Im sure samsung will learn from there mistakes and be wise enough to do it right in note 2. So all your concern about brick bug will not be there in note2.

i agree with jon, i would wait for Note 2.
but it seems you have already done a lot of reading from the available literature in this forum....and maybe even collected files ?
Notecore and speedmod and CM9/10 kernels are safe to do your wipes from, this includes wiping boot and /or system if specifically required .
Mobile odin is safe too for all the functions it does.
once in a while you will find yourself on unsafe stock/stock -based kernel ,
you may wish to change your kernel for various activities ( like flashing roms/wiping), its best to change to a safer kernel via pc odin. this gives you a yellow triangle but this can be erased with the app - Triangle Away which works on 4.0.4.
as regards moving from a ics rom to cm9 or cm10 please follow the instructions in the OP of the rom thread.
GB is the safest place to be in. you can move to any point from there.

Next scenario:
If I'm on an unsafe kernel and i Want to switch Rom, I do:
Flash safe kernel like speed mod
Wipe data
Wipe boot
Flash Rom I like for example tw ics rom
Flash safe kernel again
Maybe fix permissions
And reboot
Is that correct?
So basicly as a crankflasher nothing changes if the kernel is safe.
If it's not, make it safe before...
ALSO TRUE?
too bad no one recommends the note. I know the note 2 will be presented on Wednesday but what will be the release price? 600€ or more...
Now I can sell my s2 for 250€ and get a note 1 for 330€....
Why you cannot recommend the note 1. Only because of emmc bug?

Important reboot recovery after flashing safe kernel. Of course dependant on how its flashed, better safe to stress to bebon safe kernel, and rebot on safe kernel recovery. Then
wipe data, cache and dalvik, instead of boot.
when going from gb to ics, format system in mounts, data is optional to have clean install. Sometimes sdcard to, but then remove external sd in case sdcard and external are mapped incorrectly. (dont format efs here, rest can be safely formatted). Its also applicable for ICS to ICS if you want clean install with minimum risk of lingering files that can conflict.

Thanks so I understand...
Is there a safer than safe kernel? Basicly its not important if the safe kernel fits the the Rom right?
So flash safe kernel, reboot recovery, do what you like...
So know, pls tell me, why you can't recommend a note 1 )
Thx a lot

Dont get me wrong here i love my note 1, i had galaxy s2 also, if not for note 2 and without blinking i would recommend note 1 to you and answer your questions. I love note so much that if i had money i certainly buy the note 2, this is not wise dicision for me right now. Maybe next year i will buy note3.

Thanks for your response. Maybe another opinion, to buy note 1 or not.
I'm a bit unsecure

Hello! I just buy a mini s3 and am looking for a good rom, which is the best? which do you recommend?

You will get many answers. Everybody has his own "best" Rom... Try one, or make your own.

There are only 3 updated roms for the s3 mini currently so just download them and try out which one you like
i would say go for BenZ rom as it is the most feature packed rom IMHO, go for DMod if you want some s4 experience, planning to switch to benz as i dint really like the new enox update

Thanks for your opinion! It was helpful!

I'm on benzrom with goldenkernel and i'm really happy with them! Give a try to the kernel by lupohirp, it has more governor and scheduler to better fit your needs, more then stock kernel

[Q] I9070p custom kernels?!

Hey all, im currently running rooted Jelly bean on my 9070P, with few stock apps removed, but im still looking way to improve battery life and overall speed ot the device.
CoCore-E-6.0 was in my sights, but are there other mods to consider, which dont cripple anything (losing NFC ability is currently tolerable).
Of course the kernel must be compatible with P version, but as i heard, they all pretty much are, without the risk of bricking the phone?
Thanks.

Afaik there are no custom 4.1 kernels that are specifically for i9070p... i have cokernel e 6.0 and its working quite good.
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9070P

Can you please elaborate on "quite good", what isnt working, what is worse than stock? Did you use TWRP?

I use CWM and everything except nfc doesnt work... otherwise its exactly like on the i9070 everything
is smooth and snappy... I can last a whole day with one charge what is quite good for my usage.

I hope you meant everything besides NFC does work
If you say it can last a day with one charge on your usage, how much did it last with stock JB?

About a day too... yes everything except nfc works...

thx bro. i will subscribe it.

Would be nice if Hashcode & DHacker join the Party. Those two Guys made the XT910 an official supported CM Device :thumbup:

just a personal opinion here... I don't see much difference between Omar's rom and CM 10.1 (apart from having something else to flash).

You have a device with Cm10.1?
Our perfomance its the best on stock roms, but we dont have themes, or more feature like lockscreen personalization, etc etc....
Thats why
Intel device - Razr i Owner
Hit thanks if i help you or you like my style

yes, I have a Razr Maxx running 10.1 and apart from some bells and whistles I think the Razr i is a far better phone even without Cm. But as I said... it is fun to have different roms to flash so the more the merrier.

i thought about flashing omars rom, but as i red there a still some unsolved bugs, Is there an internal updater? without im not willing to flash his rom

[KERNEL] Ouya-Odysseus-Kernel-V0.1 15-09-2013

This is a custom kernel for the ouya gaming console based on stock kernel source.
My goal is to improve performance and stability.
Kernel Features:
compiled with linaro 4.7.4 toolchain
memory performance tweak
improved async I/O latency
For now i have to admit I'm new to kernel-development, so dont expect anything too fancy yet.
Download:
None for now - Anyone interested in alpha-testing is welcome to apply via pm. be sure to know how to get back to stock if anything goes wrong.

I'm not and will never be responsible for what you do to your device.
This piece of software is provided as is, without any guarantee on functionality. If something breaks you better know how to get back to stock by yourself.

Just to keep you informed: for now the boot.img doesn't boot up correctly. Since I was that stupid to just flash new boot.img i'll have to unbrick first and then look what is causing this issue.
Btw anyone got news on uart?
Recover from brick has highest priority for now

good thing you have this included in your kernel:
https://github.com/invisiblek/andro...mmit/f745249b52cab9feb5b7821b54d47176ae093617

hmm already tried that but didnt work =/ but thanks anyway.
seems like kernel does panic quite early and then just sits there doing nothing. then even sysrq + X doesnt work.
but will keep on trying the coming days.
if nothing helps i may have to get myself a new ouya. good those aren't that expensive
new ouya on the way... could take some time to ship to germany tho...

If you plan to keep developing this you need to make sure you give instructions to users of how to boot this without flashing using fastboot. Because of the lack of good recovery options it doesn't make sense giving users a flashable kernel they can't recover from. Keep up the work though. There aren't many devs working on the Ouya...

I surely will keep on developing this kernel. But first I want a bootable build and need to know what broke mine. This i can't be sure of before I get my new outs...(should arrive this week).
Then I'll give it out to some testers. Only when I think it's stable and safe enough to make it public I'll post link and steps how to flash.

Oh and about fastboot. I could make a flashable zip but don't think that would change anything... Maybe with safe recovery... Will have to test

This kernel is dead ?

Not dead, just way too much going on in my life for now. I will let you know if there are any news.
