you better ask in their thread.
They have their own kernel. You can use the new siyah kernel if you want but it's not necessary

In which case i would steer well clear of a rom that is a work in progress unless you actually understand what you are doing . Judged on the question you have little knowledge of flashing and risk bricking your phone .

I totally agree with Egan.learn how to flash and troubleshoot before flashing any AOSP rom.
There are many good roms in this forum READ and learn, is the keyword here. Not "i bricked my phone" and learn..

[ROM] [GT-I9300] CyanogenMod 10 -PREVIEW #9
Hi Guys,
Little help needed... Noob Questions
1) I have preview 7 installed but if i want to update to preview 9 do i just install zip from SD via CWM?
2) Also do i need to do full wipe like i did with initial installation or is 'Cache' and 'Dalvik' wipe ok??
3) Finally i've read something about flashing 'Kernal' but to my knowledge i've never done so (Previously Stock - CM9 - CM10)
Thank for any help in advance
Justin
1.)
Yes, u do like you did it when you installed the previous release :>
2.)
That's enough, but a factory reset is never wrong although when it's not needed
3.)
In many cases you automatically install a custom kernel when you install a custom rom, so i think you did it without knowing it
You can download kernels for an example using Omega Kitchen and install them using cwm like a romfile

Hi All.
I'm relatively new to all this so go easy on me.
I've got a Samsung Galaxy S2 on T Mobile.
Model Number: GT-I9100
Android Version: 4.0.3
Baseband Version: I9100XXLPQ
Kernel Version: 3.0.1 5-i9100XXLPQ-CL223505
Build Number: IML74K.XXLPQ
I've tried to root it using a method I found on here, I think it was by chainfire, the Odin app said it was a success but when the phone reboots it just freezes and doesnt go any further.
I want to have the cyanogenmod rom on my phone with it fully rooted.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have searched this forum for answers but its pretty vast.

is this a kernel? if so this one
I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXALPQ_XEO
It's a ROM, we need information about kernel.

That is a full firmware, not a kernel.
You said you used something from chainfire. If you can't tell us, perhaps a link to what you used would be helpful.

This is an insecure kernel for android build UMKK1, which is Gingerbread.
You have an XXLPQ build, which is ICS.
You need to use a kernel that is closer to your build. There is an LPQ kernel in the CF-root thread, flash that. (make sure to use the one labelled as "proper", it fixes some stuff)

Originally my phone had Gingerbread - which is why I used that kernel. However, I then thought it had rooted. So installed ICS. Downloaded Rom manager and it tells me my phone isnt rooted.
Should I still use that one?
Do I need to do anything after that?

Is the information in post 1 still accurate? Is that what is CURRENTLY on your phone? Then use the LPQ "proper" kernel in that thread I linked. Instructions are in post 1 of that same thread, but the short of it is: find the kernel that matches your build, and flash with Odin. (I already told you which one) That should be all you need to do. That will show the Triangle when you boot the phone, but if you don't care about that showing, then you're done.
So you're saying your reason for using the UMKK1 Gingerbread kernel was because you were PREVIOUSLY on Gingerbread? Well, you installed ICS. Your kernel changed along with it. You'd now have to use an ICS kernel to root ICS. Make sense?

Hi there, it rooted, so thanks for your help with that.
However, I tried installing cyanogenmod from the latest one listed in the Rom Manager. It downloaded, the phone re-booted into recovery. I deleted cache and data, then installed the zip file from sd card, however it came up that it had failed and was aborted.
So now it's rebooted and is back to 4.0.3 but with all my data gone.
Man this sucks.
Hope you can help mate

I don't use CyanogenMod, but I would avoid using ROM Manager if I were you. Why don't you just follow the instructions in the CM discussion thread? And which CM are you attempting to install? CM7, or CM9? (one is Gingerbread, and the other is ICS)
BTW - you would have had to delete all data, going to either version of CM anyways, as file system is a bit different between AOSP and Samsung based firmwares.

CM9 discussion thread. Has installation instructions in post 1, which don't involve using ROM Manager at all. As I said earlier, I'd avoid using ROM Manager; it often misbehaves on this device.
Here's some advice... even though I don't use CM (7 or 9), I found that that thread in 1 second by typing "cyanogenmod9 i9100 xda discussion thread" into Google. It was the first result that came up.
I know forum search sometimes is down, but I actually prefer to use Google for my searches anyways. You can even limit searches to a specific site by including "site:" followed by whatever site you are interested in limiting your search to.
For example, if I wanted to search the xda forums for i9100 rooting techniques, I'd Google:
site:forum.xda-developers.com i9100 rooting techniques
This will return a Google search for "i9100 rooting techniques" that are within the forum.xda-developers.com domain.
Rule #1 of the forum is to search before posting anyways... I know you're new to most of this, but you'll find people will tend to either not help or will be kind of mean if you post commonly asked questions.
Hope all this helps.

Boot to recovery. You'll know because CWM recovery has MANY more options than stock recovery. Stock recovery you can only wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache, and maybe a couple other options. I don't exactly remember, it's been so long since I've had stock recovery.

Sometimes it's just a matter of inputting the right search terms.
Anyways, I'd also advise you to follow the "noob-proof" installation instructions only on that CM9 discussion thread. It is the most straight-forward, and involves the fewest amount of steps.

1. Not sure if its been updated... you could ask or check in the respective thread.
2. Official Nightlies just dropped for select devices.. check dev section.
3. Yes
4 Neither.. CM9 based on ICS, CM10 based on JB.. Both are awesome and JB is the newest shiz so... (and actually CM9 may have more features right now)
5. 99% of the time no. Unless you flash a ROM w/ Odin that does not have root or CWM. But- most, if not all, the custom ROMs you find here will have root and CWM. Just look at the ROM features before flashing!

Answer for 1. is YES it's compatible with CM10. Just look at the thread title of siyah kernel.

1. Yes siyah supports cm10. Says so in the title. Always read the change logs for important info
2. It's in beta sort of. They're releasing previews that are quite usable. I'm using it atm. Only annoying bug is the memory leak that can easily be solved by rebooting the phone. 3. Restore only app apks, not phone settings. Restore app data at your own risk.
4. Depends on if you're looking for stability. CM9 is stable but I like JB and I'm going to be sticking with CM10
5. No it doesn't. Flashing a stock rom with stock kernel will unroot it. Custom roms will not

Go to the Original Development section and get CM9 from there. Its good for you to navigate around the site and get comfortable where stuff is. In regards to the bootani, in my experience you change this by modifying /system/media/bootanimation.zip. You can try swapping the new bootanimation.zip with the old bootani.zip and see if that works. But I've never flashed a .zip to change the bootani.. but to be fair its been a long time since I've had any desire to change the bootanimation

you can install it over 27.1 because it's no-wipe rom.
but if the rom says that you need to Full wipe your device,you need to factory reset your phone to be able to flash full wipe rom.just nerdy words,hope this helps.

Because you need cwm to install a zip file to your phone.
If you have siyah running on your device, you have cwm recovery. Use that.

Hello everyone.

I remember running into this problem before but I don't remember the solution. Does it have to do about this new MALI driver I've seen mentioned so much? What is it? Please help!
Thanks
First, this should have been posted in the Q & A section.
Second, error 7 is a common issue which you should easily be able to learn about by searching.
It means the flashing firmware is checking the buildprop on your phone for phone model (I777) and finding a mismatch.

Anytime I run into this issue, I revert to a really old backup (rooted-stock, CM, etc.) and then wipe and flash the ROM. That usually fixes it. Hopefully you have a backup that's compatible. If not, there's a thread around here that explains how to use Heimdell or something to flash a rooted-stock image that you can then use to update to the CM ROM.
It definitely can be done, and it's not too difficult. I've had to do it a time or two. Good luck!
