ji6 stock kernel - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can someone post the ji6 stock kernel, odin package is fine. I flashed JAC's kernel with ji6, bootloops at surgaceflinger now. thanks.
Nevermind, figured out how to do it. Much simpler than I thought. thanks.

For a recovery flashable version:
Pull the zImage from Bionix 1.6 stock kernel in the Bionix thread.
Then package it with the Stock-Kernel-Vibrant.zip from the Frankin-Twiz thread.

Please search before posting ansd post in the correct section.

[Q] Using JAC on the official JI6?

I just ODIN'd to the official ODIN JI6 file, and i know there is a mod thread from eugene about doing stuff to allow back supported kernels to be flashed to newer builds, and i know that the BIONIX ROM has that already setup (and more than likely the FTW ROM from eugene), but how would we go about doing that for the new release?
Thanks!

[Q] JI6 Kernel CWM Flash

I know there is a CWM flash for kernel back support, and i know we have a stock JFD kernel CWN flash file. My question is, could someone get a JI6 Kernel CWM flash file like we have for JFD?
I know the back support kinda renders this request useless, but still, it's be nice to have the new JI6 kernel in case people are nandroiding between JI6 and JFD for tests and for future uses.
really? no one knows how to do this? Hell, if i have instructions on how to do this, i'll do it. i just don't know where to start.

Flash one of the custom ROM's. i.e. bionix 1.8
It's very easy to create your own flashable zips for any kernel of your choice.
For the JI6 stock kernel pull the zImage from one of the JI6 based ROMs (note - don't use the ones that are packaged with JAC's or KK's kernel). Unzip the stock JFD kernel flashable zip you have (i.e. from the Frankin-Twiz thread) and replace the zImage with the one you just pulled. Rezipp everything and voila you have your very own recovery flashable kernel.

Not what i wanted. the custom roms do kernel back support, which i already have the flashable zip for. That gets me no closer to having a flashable JI6 kernel, only JFD kernel.

You do not have to go back to stock kernel, you can just use odin to install JI6.
JI6 has some improvements over the stock rom, but it is not really 2.2 froyo.
If I were you I would rather install the Bionix fusion, which seems to be much more stable than the Ji6 or the stock rom.

How do I flash just the kernel?

I have researched this and am getting more confused by the minute. I have installed Bionix Final stock and I am considering going back to ji6. I have read that I must flash the ji6 kernel even though I dont believe that bionix changed the kernel. When and how must this be done? After flashing to ji6? I would most appreciate it if someone could tell me the steps taken to flash just the kernel or if that is even necessary and also if I can just flash through Clockwork to go back to stock ji7 when Froyo is sent OTA. Would it be safer or easier to just use Odin? Any and all replies are most appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks for the reply but I read this thread and still am confused. Sorry I am not as informed or astute as you are. Let me mention I am a complete nubie and am looking for simple steps or instructions or answers. I am continuing to search the threads for more information. Its becoming evident to me that I should never have flashed Bionix Final as it appears that there is not a lot of support or help for nubies who have questions and do not understand some of the procedures or terms.
Bionix fusion is based on ji6. It does not actually use the ji6 kernel. It is using a modified jfd kernel so I would not recommend flashing ji6 kernel over the top of it. If you would like to go back to the stock ji6 I recomend odin back to it. But if you wanted you could use jacs kernel or kings kernel if your not happy. Fusion also came in three flavors stock, jacs, kings.
Friends don't let friends flash drunk...
Thanks so much for the helpful reply. Does Bionix final have the same kernel as the fusion does? I am on Bionix Final. I will use Odin to flash back to ji6. Would I use just the tar and pit or do I have to repartition as well? It seems the swype keyboard I am so fond of will not go into landscape mode nor will any of the other keyboards. I have checked the settings and can find nothing that would affect this situation. That is one of the reasons I am contemplating going back to ji6. thanks again for the help and kindness. any info on my other questions is greatly appreciated.
All the bionix roms are using the modified jfd kernel. Im using bionix final r1 and im not having any problems with swipe. I find it to be the best touchwiz rom out there. If you do want to go back to stock use the 512 pit amd the ji6 tar and you don't have to check the repartition box. But if your like me and flash lots of roms I would check the box to get all the ghosts out of the closets (fix force closer issues).

Thanks again. I will put your information to good use. I may stay on bionix final for a while longer. I am overjoyed that I now have the correct procedures to flash back when the time comes. Many thanks and Blessings.
