What kernel you want to use?
If doomkernel, simply flash it via Xrevovery, bootloader bypass included in zip package.

If you just wanna get fps uncap, just flash Z's fps uncap, search it manually at xperia x10 android development.

All custom kernel flashable zips have the bypass toolkit. So just flash them via xrecovery and you're set.
Thank you
But i dont know how to flash it via recovery, which option to choose , where to place the zip file

install custom update option then choose the zip from your SDcard
put zip on sdcard (anywhere you like), enter xrecovery, select "install custom zip", then select "choose custom zip" and direct it to where you placed kernel zip and you should be good.
But i did that and itsbthe same kernel when i check, is the zip file that doomlord provided is enough, it doesnt contain the miniloader and the other one, it only contains boot.img, i am on bluesparks rom 2.1 and bb 52

So you have to wait till bootloader unlocked. That will be better. Grap
After i do yhat it says it succeeded but i am still on the stock kernel

But another guy said that i dont have to unlock bootloader its already provided by the zip file which kernel is in

I wanted to ask the question in villain roms thread but was not able to.
Anyway I have just installed the 2.4.2 rom and noticed that the cwm app which I had before is no longer there.
Is this normal?
I was using another custom rom, then used the cwm app to boot into recovery, wiped partition, cache etc before installing the villain rom.
I can still access the cwm by holding vol up, home and power, but liked being able to boot into recovery from within the phone.
I want to know if I can get the app back, and if it's normal for the villain rom to have removed it.
Thanks
You may not be allowed to post there yet, but you can search there...

Thanks, I failed the first rule in forums, search before asking sorry
Just one more question on this link with the cwm apk http://forum.xda-developers.com/misc.php?do=showattachments&t=1198334
There are two, cwm 2.00 and cwmmanager which one do I use?
No problem
Currently not using Villain, but 99.99% sure I used the cwm 2.00 apk.
Edit 100% sure now - the first link in post #813 on said thread was what I used, that's the cwm 2.00 apk.
Hi,
I didn't want to open a new thread for this,
so I'm using this thread...
Is it possible to install CWM application by taking the CMWManager.apk from a system already having it (different system having a kernel with CWM) and copying it to the system/app folder ...?
I mean, if I install a kernel with CWM (like CF-Root), copy the CWMManager.apk to my SD card, and then copy it back to any other ROM I install in the future, with any kernel, will I have the CWM app in my new system?
Will it work...?

Yes as long as you have a version of ClockworkMod recovery that is supported by the app, aka almost every sgs2 kernel apart from the CM/aosp kernels which use rom manager.

I can confirm this, I have the cwm app running on three devices, all running different software. But because I have clockwork recovery on all 3 devices, the app works fine.
And it does still work with my sgs2 running CM7.
EDIT: Its the tweakmanager app that is dependant on cf-root I think.

Interesting, i didn't think it would work so well, it's mainly that we can't use rom manager on kernels with CWM based of chainfires version of it, rather than a "stock" cwm version

I might be wrong, but I think that might be because rom manager uses a 'fake flash'.
Currently rom manager sees the backups I've made using the cwm app, and vice versa.

Yeh, you can't flash cwm from rom manager without a cwm kernel, and due to modifications made by chainfire this cwm img won't work with rom manager, so says his thread

.tar kernels can be flashed via the cwm manager App.
Flash kernel let's you flash tar files and zimages.

Or is it limited to kernels only?

Nope, you need scripting to flash a whole rom, and that's what makes a zip flushable, the bloody annoying and overly complex edifying scripting.
The tar is just a zimage inside a file!

U may be able to install xrec as a zip with root explorer. You'd have to place it in right place I'm system somewhere and set permissions for it manually (not sure how to do this but a member called Milton.bain has dome it few times try asking him for help)

It depends on your phone model. Because you mentioned flashtool I'm assuming you have an Xperia device. You can't flash kernels from cwm.

No you can't flash a kernel with a locked bootloader except in a few rare cases. What device do you have?

The post above answered your question and the answer is NO.
OK and thanks.
Thank you very much for the information
Hello everybody,
Please bear with me a little and if you would like to answer, please give as much details as possible.
I have and Xperia Acro S, with unlocked boot loader running a custom rom with stock kernel 4.0.4, and I have root access, and CWM installed.
I am trying to install a cyanogen based rom, with a custom kernel obviously.
I have downloaded a zip file which contains a boot.img file.
The developer asked to flash the boot.img using flashtool first, then to flash the rom with cwm. And here's my question(s)
As I understood, this boot.img contains the kernel, do I need to use flashtool if I already have CWM installed, or would CWM install the kernel also?
And let's say i extracted the boot.img from the zip file and flashed it, wouldn't this remove CWM from the phone?
And then, should the boot.img stay inside the zip file while flashing it with CWM later? or should i remove it because CWM can't flash boot.img?
I have successfully installed cyanogen roms on nexus s, with CWM alone, and the phone booted normally, and I suppose it replaced the kernel correctly, or it didn't?
And please if you could explain what exactly this boot.img is, and how is it different from a normal kernel file inside the zip, does it also contain a recovery? you get my point.
Thanks for reading so far, and thanks in advance for any answers.
i have xperia tipo and when i go to flash vengeance kernel with flashtool says:you need to be root and e.g.
i have unlocked bootloader and rooted phone!!!!!!!!please help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!(sorry for my bad english)

Yes. You can look here for your model and for installation instrructions. Happy flashing!
Similar to concept used by user mankotialovely in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2220717
I have compiled a Cwm recovery.
This is for users having LOCKED BOOTLOADERS. When we install a custom from recovery‚ our recovery is wiped
and we have to install it again. Moreover if we get a boot loop
after installing custom rom then we have to flash official rom
again‚ root and install recovery again. To overcome these problems
I have made cwm recovery as a flashable zip. So after installing a custom
rom‚ don't reboot and flash this zip. So we have a recovery after rebooting.
Even if we get bootloop‚ we can restore phone using nandroid
backup.
So basically this is a cwm recovery which can be flashed from
Cwm itself.
Thanks to user mankotialovely
And atis112 for Cwm recovery (http://code.google.com/p/kumquat-project/downloads/detail?name=cwm-1.0-kumquat.zip&can=2&q)
You have compiled or its atis work?
Only compiled the zip. Files taken from his zip.

Yes it can't be flashed without recovery. U can flash it while u r flashing custom rom using recovery so that recovery is not wiped after reboot
Sent from my Xperia U using xda app-developers app
and supposed the rom already has recovery then?
It definitely can give compatibility problems as the file are yet to be set up and boom you already flashed something new
Hope you understand
If rom already has one then no need of it dude. I reapeat it is for custom roms in LOCKED BOOTLOADERS that don't have built in recoveries.
Hope u understand
