Hey all, i need help installing a custom kernel. I dont quite understand what i need to do. Am running Wolfbreaks CM and under his post, there were instructions to install baseband 52 and patch before installing kernel. I am currently on baseband 54. Do i just flash the kernel or do i still have to install baseband 52 over my mod?

You should flash the correct baseband using flash tool. Then do an xrec backup. Flash the custom kernel you want to use using xrecovery and reboot. You can verify that you are running the custom kernel by going to the about phone section of settings. If you choose to revert to the stock kernel you can restore your previous backup using xrecovery

So flashtool is the only way to flash baseband? And i install the kernel via xrecovery like normal? Thanks.

Thanks but i have another question. by the end of flashing custom kernel, i should be having baseband .52 with custom kernel and running wolfbreak's custom rom. Will there be any incompatibility? Cause i was having baseband probs an hour ago and just reflashed WB's rom. Will there be no problems? Or should i flash yet a new baseband after custom kernel installation? like .58 or .54?
EDIT2: Apparently i was having probs with direct update to v06..had to go with increments from v54 to be on the safe side..trying for the last time today to get that kernel on..
flash baseband with flashtool and custom kernel with xrec its easy bro

Morning....
Im currently running 2.2.1 by Trip and i would like to get to x10 free beta 3 - 4
Looking around, it seemes i need to go back to 2.1, then update the baseband , then i can go with x10 b3-4....
Does that sound right?
Nope, u can directly flash the basëband using flash tool by bin4ry
And then flash beta4 using xRecovery
Note: not all ROMs support the new baseband except the latest stock SE & a few custom.
Edit : Use steve.adams.x10 's guide for flashing via flash tool.
Happy flashing
Regards

You can flash beta3 through xrec with your current rom but if you want beta4 you should flash the latest baseband first using flash tool. Search at androxyde and steve adam's thread for guide.

my x10i is looking sweet and running even sweeter.....thanks all.
I have a quick question about this recovery. Do u flash this over xrecovery with xrecovery?
I know about the .52 baseband it must be on. So some help will be great. I would love to flash the new 2.2 pure cyanogen ROM kxhawkins and try its speed.

Which miniloader are you using? V1 or V2? Go to miniloader page and download older version.

You'll need the flashtool which you can get from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928343
Take your time reading & learning the posts.
You'll also need XRECOVERY which you can install from the flashtool. How to instructions are also on the link above.
Then you'll have to decide which custom ROM to install. Here are 2 examples of custom ROMs which gives you the option to install with STOCK or CUSTOM KERNELS.
If you want to stay on 2.1:

Hi All,
I've X10i [Stock FW 2.1 Update 1 ; BB 2.1.54 ; Kernel 2.6.29 ; Build 2.1.A.0.435] Already RooTed by Z4RooT, with XRecovery, Busybox & SU Installed.

2. Is EWJet xKernel/zKernel compatible with My Phone Spec..?
Many Thanks in Advance Bro..;-)

Yes you can flash that through xrec. When you download the file, unzip it to your PC and you'll see an APPS folder, BASEBAND folder and update zip file. Make sure you use BB52 otherwise that rom will not work. If you look in the basband folder, it actually includes the flashtool so all you have to do is flash the included BB then reboot in xrec to flash update.zip.

The zkernel you'll have to use on a different rom that's compatible with it because the CM7 rom that you asked about above contains it's own customer kernel.

1. You'll have to flash black your stock firmware before SE update would work
2. You got bb54 but that rom/custom kernel is for bb67. I got it to work on bb58 so it might work for you. Give it a try but make sure you make a backup before you begin.
