Hi, I just want to know how to install CyanogenMod 9 on my Live, and X Kernel. I can't consider myself as a noob, since I have already flashed SE phones before, and now that I have my first smartphone (WT19i) I'm very happy with it and I've already root it and installed CWM. But the problem is I have never installed a Rom before, and I don't know how does they work, but I saw a video of a Live with CM9 installed and I really liked it, so I want to know how to do it and install X Kernel too. Has someone already try CM9? I would like to hear how is it going for you.... Thanks.
No u cant. Currently the xkernel only supports gb roms. Cm9 needs its own kernel.
And u probably need to update baseband too.
Ok thanks for your quick reply. So if I have ICS Stock Rom installed, what Kernel would you recommend me to save more battery life?
And is there a better ICS Rom than the Stock one? Because I would like to try something new..
Only stock or stock based rom will give best battery life.
Last time I try cm9 it got horrible battery life. But that was weeks ago. Hearing good thing about latest fxp cm9 126.
My personal favorite and daily driver is muiv4, with my own kernel. Miuiv4 is beautiful and got many cool feature that I need. But still a little bit battery drainer tho.
In the end it depends on your needs.
Want battery saver, use stock or custom rom based on stock.
Want blazing fast rom use cm9.
Want beautiful elegant rom use miuiv4.
is cyanogenmod9 has its built in stock kernel? or i will install kernel cyanogenmo9?

You need to install cyanogenmod kernel by fxp or the one provided in the zip file
It's a boot.img and the easiest way to flash it is using flashtool...
How to install custom roms/kernels is in my signature...

Hi Guys, Need some help! I want a simple rom. I HATE the Telus boot animation!!!!! This is what I have. By the way, It is rooted and unlocked. Samsung Ace GT-S5830D. Android version 2.3.4.Baseband S5830DTLKI4 Kernel version 2.6.35.7-perf-CL568978 [email protected]#1. Build number GINGERBREAD. DTLIK4
Can I use any rom?? I think the stock rom is ok but I want to add a few cool things. I'm new to this Samsung Ace and I'm not sure what to do. I had a HTC Sensation I did a lot with so I know how to flash and all. This is a different animal. Thanks in advance. Thom
As u might know there are a lot of same qs like this
Unless you are on froyo u can flash every rom
If fllow instructions / guide
Don't Thank me ! Thank The World
I think you'll find a stock-based ROM the best. They are still simple, but faster and have great battery life. Plus they have the stock goodies (I really miss the stock phonebook). There are some pretty good SGSII themed ROMs.
Why don't you try to flash that ddkq8 rom via Odin?
U can try stock roms. :thumbup:
There are a few awesome other cm7 roms too in competition with it.
from XDA app
Press THANKS if I helped
fastest rom ever.
you can use ace of spades here. best and fastest rom ever.
bit.ly/ace-of-spades
I would recomend u stocklite_v6 from tj droid
its a stock based rom with amazing speed and battery life ... welll ... you'll get a huge surprise ! It as a cf-root kernel wich also allow´s u to overlock your phone!
I´ve been using it for a while and i am really satisfied
Look for it in dev. section
Use stock ddkq8 its the latest stock.

I think the best choice is an CyanogenMod ROM, simple, effective, and supports everything without problems
The better choice is CM7.2 by vo-1
and you can even disable bootloader with the ROM Toolbox app
sorry poor english D:
rom
Ace of speed is by one of the fastest, lagfree and smooth rom I tried (it's based on CM7). Unfortunately since yesterday it isn't available anymore. I think the next one I'll try will be the galaxyics, based on cm9 and supposevely a porting of ICS. Before flashing a rom (generally if it's a custom you'll need clockworkrecovery), do a full wipe (even a couple of times) and clean cache and dalvik cache. and don't forget to backup...

Well first, It's ace of SPADES and ICS by galaxyics is unofficial port of REAL ICS on ace.
Back to the topic.
Yes you can flash normally. Here are my suggestions
Since ace of spades is down, I suggest CM7 Unofficial By FAT, or Jusada's ICS Final (but it's kinda outdated), Thse are my choices for CM7 based
As for stock,
Try OmegaROM, TheMyth ROMS (any of em. They look nice.), Stocklite also has a good reputation but haven't tried it myself'
Do everything with Lagfree and turboboost. Except for chinese roms
Hi,
I would recomend u stocklite_v6 from tj droid, it's very smooth and using the latest ddkq8.

custom rom do come with there own pro's and con's u have to check the changelog of that rom to see whats different in it also some apps which do require root previlage wrks fine with custom roms rather than stock one's
stock roms do have better batt life compared 2 custom ones at the cost of customization with there dull and boring looks
thanks for your reply i guess its just finding the correct balance between customization and battery life then. cheers
go with custom
I had the exact same thoughts when i first decided to flash a custom rom.
Personally i would now flash a custom rom at the drop of a hat, however as the previous comment said there are pros and cons.
do some research on roms with functionality that you require and you'll find one you want to flash no doubt.
hope i helped
i am now running CM9 and its so smooth and looks amazing, a millions times better than stock in almost every way!
Check out the ROM and the comments which people have wrote. Some of them may be good and others may be bad.. you'll be able to work out the missing features of the custom rom bother you or not ^__^ That's how I work out whether to install the ROM XD Most ICS ROM's have their benefits and cons, Gingerbread would be considered the most stable Hope this helps you

Highly customizable. You can overclock, undervolt, theme, use different launchers. To me they're faster too.

cheers guys i guess custom seems the way forward, just need to research the changelog of each rom that takes my fancy
thanks again guys !!
What about if I install a custom kernel, but keep my stock rom? Is there any benefit at all?
To clarify: I'm on i19100 4.0.3 which I've recently rooted. Thinking of installing Siyah 3.5.2 but for now I want to keep my stock (Bell) ROM. What do I stand to gain when I get the Siyah kernel, if anything? Or is the kernel really *only* just a prerequisite to get a custom ROM?
Thanks!

But there's already no brick bug on 4.0.3 right? So... what exactly would I gain with the Siyah kernel?
The only thing I can think of is CPU/kernel modding

One BIG reason I'm on stock ROM and KERNEL is that currently no custom Kernel supports MHL (please correct me if I'm wrong)
For me this is a big problem as I'm always watching movies and playing games on my TV with my phone

It's the ROM, not the kernel, that determines if MHL fully works.
Apparently video works with AOSP, but not full mirror of the display.
However, if you want full mirroring, you'll need to be on a stock Samsung based ROM.
That said, you can still run a custom kernel, such as Siyah or SpeedMod, and MHL will still work as long as you remain on the Samsung based ROM.
I'm currently running stock XWLPX with Siyah 4.1.4, and MHL works fully for me.
If this is a noob question, sorry....i'm a newbie. I want to download the rom directly from www.cyanogenmod.com.... I have a LWW unlocked bootloader, running Real ICS with extended stock kernel. But i don't know what kernel i need use to work that rom.
My english is horrible

Another thing that's worth to mention: you won't be able to boot without any kernel rather than FXP's, the other ones are specially for oficial based custom ROM's as they are built using its source. By the way, don't worry. FXP's kernel is fine. I flashed CM9 with the FXP kernel of course and I am getting better battery savings than I expected it to give me.
Ok so now that I've played with JB, I wanted to try out xperia ultimate hd for instance.
Problem is, I already had a lot upgrading from stock ICS to JB FXP.
So now the question: What are the steps to be sure there 's no problem at all while I change from
Flykernel+FXP
to
Xperia ultimate hd.
I unzipped the source, but can't find any ICS kernel to flash with flashtool. And I think I can not just reboot in recovery and flash the new rom, am I wrong ?
Searched for a clue on xda, sorry if I missed a post with the answer in it.
You should flash an ics kernel like rage kernel and flash the xperia ultimate HD rom in recovery. Don't forget about the wipes, it should work
What are the issues you are afraid of?

flykernel for ics has recovery just use it. You will want to flash the kernel first and then use the CWM from flykernel ics to flash the rom. Since there was no kernel inside the ROM this probably means it uses the stock kernel.
Ok thanks ! reasons why I want to change is :
-> Google Search is leeching my battery, I tried everything from disabling location or history, still draining do not know why...
-> No OTA on FXP, you guys know if there is any chances there would be on CM10 unoff ? CM10 supposed to bring OTA, do not know if FXP will.
->Still my battery is fine with smartassV2 / Sio, but I miss the auto brightness and I wanted a more stable / Battery friendly rom. Is ultimate HD the right choice ?
3 questions in one thread...:silly:
I was just wondering whether i should use munjeni's stock rom with oc kernel, or is the cm9 rom by fxp is worth it. Has anyone tried both and if so which gives better performance.
About CM9 and the .54

In my Opinion the Stock ROM ICS: a burden, seems like a just out of the 'beta' rom.
The CM, something is bothering me and I didn't found the thread about the Stock ROM b.54 ... Why do we have to have this ROM instead of the c.10 ??
Seems illogical for me regarding the baseband modem.
So if you find the answer to the b.54, please share it.
About you doubt bet on CM.
Regards.
There is no need for overclocking the cpu. I use CM9.1 on my Go and it runs very nice.
@lvcargnini the .54 ROM updates your modem firmware

ok, So it is done.
Running CM9 now, and it is really nice and neat this FXP203, of course this LED bar is annoying me.
