If you check out the CM7 Q&A forums they mention not to flash any kernels and use only the included one that comes with CM7. As for the modem, KH3 is a great modem, but XXKI1 has been released which I am using and is working very well...
Cheers

I tried 3 separate kernels from different Samsung Galaxy-S phones (2.2.1 firmwares), all ended up in disasters. A couple times almost unrecoverable, for example I was able to get into download mode but Odin simply refused to connect or see the phone.
Needless to say I would not try again after 3 times. My luck can't hold out forever... YMMV, Your GSM Telus Fascinate may very well be much more compatible than my CDMA VZW Fascinate.

I am on darky's 9.3 final with a telus fascinate. I put it on before I realized that there was a vibrant edition and have been happily using the i9000 verision since 9.2.
In case you are curious:
Install darky's 9.1 (stupid i know but do it) using the telus kernel,
this step i dont know if it needs to be done but i did it anyway: Install rom configurator and install darky's 9.2 no modem no kernel.
Finally install 9.3 with speedmod kernel and modem straight from the configurator. Thats how i did it. I am using the i9000 speedmod kernel because i find the battery is amazing with speedmod on ext2.
I have tried the telus modem and the one that comes with darky's and i can not see a difference so I am sticking to the one that comes with the rom because my phone is working perfectly right now.
The vibrant edition may work and may save you from investing in buttonremapper But this is what works for me

[Q] Kernels??? and cyanogenmod

Hi all,
I have a few questions now I am running cm7. And I can't find the answers propably because (you're a NOOOB!!!) I lack some basic understanding of the relation between kernels, mods, modems etc.
First the situation: SGS2 (duh) rooted using CF-Root OXA KG3. Flashed CM7 nightly (88 or 89 don't know from the top of my head).
My understanding of the parts is limited to the rom (cm7) is running on top of the kernel. Where the modem fits in I don't know.
Now the questions:
1. Does cm7 have (and am I running) it's own kernel or am I still on CF-Root?
2. If I want to switch to another kernel how would I do it and where can I find kernels working well with cm7? (I know about Swi7chblades thread)
3. Where is the modem for and can I change and improve it? (sorry couldn't find it in the guides nor the glossary on the wiki)
And I thought I had more but will say what pops up when I read your answers.
I think CM7 has a own kernel but i'm not sure
SiyahKernel v2.0 will work for you if you are still running CM7

Yeah I am still running CM7 and plan to stay there until their is either an ICS version or another ICS rom. Thanks for the kernel suggestion will check it out.
edit: SiyahKernel v2.0 looks promising, I'll put it on the list of things to try.
I tried siyah 2.0 stable but it wasn't a success. I ended up going back to stock and flashing cm7 again. On the modem front I flashed to KI4 and things seem a little better. But I still don't really know what to look for. Anyone?
CM7 has the kernel from cyanogen dev codeworkz. I'm using siyah ATM though which is decently stable.

[Q] should i must have to change the kernel if i change the ROM?

hi guys,
i wanna ask you senious guys that,should i have to change the kernel each time if i want to change the ROM of my galaxy s II or any kernel will work with any ROM?
kindly assist me in this matter.thanks.
What type of Rom are you trying to flash?
Most custom roms include a kernel so you you will have to refresh back to your preferred kernel.
Or you can open the zip file and replace the kernel of your choice as long as it matches your firmware version, ie GB kernel for a GB rom etc.

any kernel may not work with any ROMs...almost all samsung firmware versions has got its own versions of Kernel.
In SGS2 normaly custom kernels are used for rooting your phone, like CF-root, whcih are made for almost all the samsung firamware matched kernels, you only want to pick the one matching for your ROM.
It is also seen sometimes advised to back up your Kernel, this can be done using a tool from Market called "Ktool", at a worst scenario, when your installed custom kernel giving you a treble you can restore the previous one.
EDIT : you are already on a custom ROM as well as Custom Kernel. both have got their newer versions alredy.
checkrom is now on V6, and Siyah kernel is now on v2.6.14
Well your still on gingerbread and an early kernel and early checkrom. There are many roms and kernels you can try the best for battery life us what works best for you and only you can figure that out with testing.
Try out an ICS Rom if you haven't done so already and there are now custom kernels for that as well.

On xda there are many roms with included kernels. Resurrection Remix v1.1 is my personal favorite ICS rom at this moment, with stock kernel battery life is very good. Just search on xda

I meant the kernel that is already included with the rom when you flash it. So just flash the rom and you don't need to install another kernel after it.
Here is a link to the Resurrection rom:

Hope this helped you
If you flash a rom it replaces the kernel you've been using with that of the rom you're flashing...
Soooo
Eg cm9 + siyah
If you flash a new nightly it'll replace siyah with cm9s kernel so you have to flash siyah each time.
Think that makes sense..!

Just picked up an S2 today, need a little advice.

Hello, Just Picked up my S2 I900m today. I am on the Bell Canada network. My previous phone is the I9000m (still love it) which was Rooted using Slim ICS and the Semaphore kernel using the KG3 Modem.
I've spent a few hours reading/research and for some reason the 9100 seems a little more complicated. I basically want a smiliar setup as I had with the i9000.
I think once I get the recovery figured out, I can start by flashing CM9 and then SLIM ICS.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Edit: I forgot to mention I bought the phone used so it has been upgraded to 4.03 MUGLD3
well, the great thing with i9100 is that you can basically match anything up (considering of what OS you're in: GB or ICS) unlike that of i9000's, you have to be on that firmware so you can flash that something and etc.
if you have a good background in flashing things in i9000, then you're good to go in the i9100 world

[Q] Q's about installing ROM & Kernel on Player 5.0 INTL

Hi. I wont introduce myself as there is no need for that, i'll just say that i have no how to PROPERLY install a ROM and Kernel on an Android. I know how to do it in Symbian S60V5, but that was ages ago.
I have a Galaxy Player 5.0 International, YPG70-EB confused
I already rooted it, but i dont like the TouchWiz 3.0 at all. I installed a custom TW 4.5, its much better but it crashes often. So i got rid of it.
Anyways, what is a Kernel? Do i need to put a custom Kernel? If yes, before the ROM or after the ROM? Do you install the both via ZIP file in
Android System Recovery (3e) ?
I'm sorry for being a total noob, i already tried this once and i hard bricked my Player. Cost me 20 euros to fix it.
Firmware version: 2.3.5
Kernel version: 2.6.35-G70XXKPF-CL562492 ([email protected] #2)
Build number: GINGERBREAD.XXKPF (KPF, not KPH )

Did that. Quite dissapointed that in the kernel thread, OP didnt say that Camera doesnt work.
I know that in CM9 camera isnt working, but before flashing ROM, i was in GB and it didnt work.
Camera is working.
try flashing again.

Link for custom ROMs
Go to this link. You can find all the custom ROMs as well as stock ones for the Samsung Galaxy Player. Note that the stock based ROMs are simply modified versions of stock firmware, most have alternate launchers installed. The non-stock based ROMs usually have some problems, so if you want a fully working ROM with cool tweaks, use a stock-based one.
