how to install a cutom rom, btw whts kernal ? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey, im new here. i hav no idea to how to install a custom rom? btw wht is kernal?
seriously, i hate touchwiz.. need to get rid off it. and here the threads are so scattered , i cant find one regarding my question.... the other thing is that is there any future support once u flash a rom ? or is it just for fun! i rooted my phone nd i did a lag fix thru the app market, oclf..
can any one recommend me a suitable rom, no touchwiz, no bloatware, and wht ever is it there...
thankx
help will be appreciated.

after you root you need a recovery that can flash custom roms. you can download clockwork recovery mod from the market and use that first flash a recovery and from there you can flash roms with it.
from there just start flashing roms until you find one that you like.
before you get into flashing roms and kernels i would recommend reading more and at least disabling the lagfix.
you can find a lot of useful information here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734164
btw please post questions in the q&a or general section

Read the stickies, they have everything you want/need to know as a user. And you won't be posting this thread if you have even glanced through them.

Before you flash anything on your Vibrant I think you should do some research because you don't seem to know what your talking about!
Your in the Vibrant development forum any roms on here are more than comparable with the Vibrant! The only think you really have to worry about is if you need to disable any lagfix or not!

yes read up before flashing s15274n has a sticky in the gen section for noobs read that. Then if you want Axura with a ka6 modem, you would need the rom and modem zips. Flash the rom Reboot and go to recovery then flash thee Ka6 modem and you go what you want........... if that's really what you are asking ?

yes, as the previous poster has said, it's not a problem to have questions. Everyone here is really helpful, just gotta post em' in the right place. Q&A, question and answer section, is probably the best place to start. This section, Android Development, is a discussion forum.
- adb push iPad2post.apk to /forum/thread
Yes u can.
But there its a problem with clockwork cwm wiping so get the edited one that romracer posted here in the dev section. Also make sure to research the roms before flashing as some require att atrixs. Gl hf. And QandA section next time

[Q] ROMs flashable through ODIN?

Just wondering..
What ROMs are currently being developed here on XDA (both the original android & android ROMs sections) are flashable through ODIN? and is there a benefit to flashing through CWM?
Thanks heaps

flashing through odin you can flash stock roms from different regions and also litening pro...check the android development section and you will find the rom thread there. also if you are going to root do your homework first...
benefit of flashing through CWM is it makes life alot easier...ie flashing through your computer each time you want to put a new rom on your phone...all your answers are in the original development thread
Yeh..I've been using Lite'ning Rom (currently on v6.1) on my SGSII, but I wanna jump on android 2.3.5.
Any recommendations on ROMs that can be flashed via ODIN..and provides good battery life?
Stock 2.3.5 from Intratechs thread .
jje
Do stock like JJe suggested and then just enjoy the beauty of it...give yourself a week trying it out and in between read through the original dev forums about roms and how everything works...each rom thread has guides on installations and how they work...if you got more questions feel free to ask me

How to restore stock recovery?

I just rooted, I've got ROM Manager and I'm about to use it to install the ClockworkMod recovery.
If I ever decide I don't want it, can I restore the phone's factory recovery console? If so, how? And will the method vary as kernels, firmwares etc do?
Thank you.
As much as I know, ROM Manager does not work on SGS2. Please search for the "CWM" thread in the "original development" forum.

Then I wonder how I am to perform the same kinds of activities ROM Manager supports, like installing and backing up ROMs. Is there a GUI-based alternative?
Im also some what new at thia stuff.
First you should get your hands on the program called ODIN and also the cf root that matchs your current phones verison.
Thay way when you flash your phone tou get clockwork mod and then back it up.
I am sure others can get into more detail but as i said.... I am also new at using ROMS

First stop posting your questions in the dev sections, second you don't need rom manager to do all that, you simply need a to flash a kernel that has cwm recovery built in, that's what rom manager boots into anyway.

1. flash the matching cf root from chainfire thread in sgs2 thread.
2. download your custom rom and copy it to sd card.
3. reboot into cwm and flash it.
actually you have to post this q in sgs2 sub forums to get much better response
the section is right here
