Im planning to switch to another rom im currently running stock jfd with Oclf and root. Should i disable oclf first and flash my desired rom or leave it that way?

Thank you

I am looking to reload the stock boot/shutdown animations back to my phone. Does anyone have a CWM zip file to replace these?

Very simple, flash through CWM just like you would any other ROM.
1. Download
2. Place in Root of SD
3. Go to CWMR
4. Install zip
5. Choose zip
6. Yes
7. (Optional) Wipe All
8. Reboot
Wipe all ....do or don't? What are the benefits of wipe all?

I personally don't wipe, but people say that it ensures a safer more proper flash. My phone's just fine and I didn't wipe when I flashed the modem and kernel.
Can I download the new kernel to my phone I don't have a laptop at the moment?

Probably... but over 3g? it's probably gonna take HOURS.
I have wifi that's pretty fast will that work?

I've downloaded a whole rom with poor signal in less than an hour so I don't see why a kernel would take so long.

Wait, you're downloading a kernel...you'll be fine then.
Just move it to the root of the sd card.
Another Question when u say download to the root of sd does that mean my external sd card?

yes........i believe
Does this method apply for flashing a modem too?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
yea it should be just like flashing a rom
Modems and kernels both flash in CwMRecovery just like a rom. Both need to be placed in the internal sd just like a ROM to flash. Although I keep a copy on my external sd and my pc for backups and recomend u do as well.
You can download them directly onto your phone but your chances of getting a bad download go up. To ensure a good download always use a pc with a known good internet connection. Good luck!=)

I had to disable Voodoo in order to flash Eugene's Ginger Clone. Now I would like it back. Which zip file do I need and do I just need to flash it with CWM? And is it going to overwrite SuperIO?

Just flash it with CWM, I did and it worked like a charm. Yes it will overwrite SuperIO.
Can someone post the appropriate zip file I need? I was getting confused by all the choices of Voodoo for different kernels.

If anyone can link this I would be very very appreciative, I need it to get CWM so I can "flash forward" to some ICS.

There is no eclair overstock kernel, use the update.zip method in the noob guide to install clockwork

Install rom manager it can flash cwm for you... But it's not on the market so your gonna have to push it using root explorer or you could just download an old version somewhere
