Well it appears to be a port(?) from the i9000 galaxy s, hence the i9000 in the kernel but that could be the issue right there. You need a vibrant kernel. Really the biggest question is how did you flash a ROM but don't know what it is? The name should be in the OP.
I recommend Hellybean.

When I first flash this ROM my phone was bricked. after many trying I could get rid of this problem. Though I bricked my phone but I continued trying to flash this kernel and at last I succeeded. Now it has some problems such as calling problem which I told my previous post. Secondly I can't hear music in loud speaker !!! I noticed that last night. But the phone is speedy, faster. No I have no front facing camera. My phone is vibrant sgh t949. And in recovery mode I can scroll options without volume up, down button by touching. But before I can't touch In recovery mode. There is also file manager name AROMA in recovery mode.

OK you mean t959...... I am not sure which ROM you are using now but try and flash the ROM in the link, both links are the same I accidentally posted it twice. Be sure to read the op carefully and follow instructions. I am going to provide you with another link for Odin in case you run into trouble but you should be okay. I check these threads daily and will try to give you support in any way I can.

Yes. I'm trying. i have no internet connection last one day and i am downloading my previous apps from play store. i accidently deleted all of my backups. Now i'm downloading AIO VIBRANT TOOLBOX. it's 200+ mb. but i don't understand the very first link (Hellybean 4.1 link). there is no specific download link of this ROM. By the way I will try another vibrant ROM by the second post's link.
Edit: Now.. Odin isn't recognizing my phone in my computer!!!!!!! I have installed exact driver. last time when i bricked my phone. it worked in my fried's PC. now i have to go there, because his PC loves my phone not my PC. i don''t know why this is happening !!!

When it rains, it pours. . You'll be okay. From the issues you are having when you get to your friends house, I would definitely Odin back to stock JFD and start fresh. You seem to have the wrong kernel for your device. So start over and you should be ok.

When you go to hellybean thread in the first post there is a link that will take you to Devil website. Hit the download link it will take you to rootax files. Locate the hellybean 20120813 allinone.zip. and hellybean add ons and DL.
After you go back to stock it is recommended to flash GB boot loaders. Next,(full wipe) Flash cm9 nightly, reboot and wait about 10-15mins to allow time for files to finish, then(full wipe again) flash the hellybean allinone.zip, reboot recovery, (no wipe)flash allinone.zip again (no wipe) flash add on zip, fix permission and reboot.
Give 15mins to let it settle then setup and enjoy.

Finally I flashed my phone by the real ROM. Thank you so much. I used cyanogen mod 9 Stanky. It has no problem with my device. All my problems such as phone calls, volume up-down are corrected. Now it is Glitch recovery mode. Not devil and this recovery mode is not touchable. Thank you so much.

Awesome! Glad to hear it. You may want to edit the title of this post and put the word (Solved!) in it...

After flashing I didn't get into play store or any Google apps . But when I entered into Google apps such play store, gmail it didn't enter I mean forced closed. So I flased the Devil Addons. Now I have two gallery and two camera otherwise all of them are correct!!!

The apps that are force closing, go to settings, apps or manage apps, forget which its called and the find the app in question. Force stop it and clear data. Should work after that.

Apparently the ROM has gapps baked in and the hellybean add on is for jb not ICS. You can try and manually remove but it would probably be best to reflash the ROM. (Full wipe)
If you want jb go to the hellybean link I gave you and follow op directions.

Yes i have downloaded the ROM you said. I will try this. Now i am using the SKANKY ROM. PROBLEMS AFTER PROBLEMS.(BUT I AM NOT TIRED BECAUSE I WANT TO BE LIKE YOU, I AM LEARNING) NOW MY GALLERY, WINAMP, GOOGLE MUSIC CAN`T FIND THE SD CARD PICTURES AND MUSIC FILES. IF I OUT ALL FILES FROM SD CARD AND AGAIN INSERT THEM I THINK THE PROBLEM WILL BE SOLVED. OTHERWISE ALL OF APPS ARE WORKING VERY SMOOTHLY.

[Q] Hey There I Need Help!!

Hey Whats Up Everyone My Names Michael And I'm New Here. I Currently Have A Samsung Galaxy Vibrant And Been Trying To Re flash Clockworkmod Into My Phone Again. I Recently Had Chimera Ics Installed And Uninstalled it Back To Factory, But Been Having Problems Re installing The Clockworkmod. I Accidentally Deleted Some Folders In My Phones Memory Card And Its Been Giving Me This Problem -
E :Cant open /sdcard/update.zip (No Such File Or Directory) Installation Aborted
How Can I Have The Phone To Re install Clockworkmod Again?. I Need Help!!!!
Put the update.zip in your internal storage. Not in a folder. Just right out there in the open.
If you don't have that file at all do a quick search of the guides. I think Woodrube has it posted too. See if you can find it. If not I'll look later.
ok so i just go into the root of my phone and remake a folder name update.zip?
No just put your downloaded file as it is in your phone

This is because the camera and Google apps are a separate zip file called Gapps. Its right there in the OP, can't miss it.
how do i get that.do you have a link i can get paranoid and everything for the camera and google apps?
Id go with a stable ICS, most of the peeps prowling this thread are updating, ,,,not daily drivers, my daily is an ICS, this is really a flashers web, but theres some great ICS Roms to download...

Wish the ROM's with a stock kernel were a bit smaller, it's a pain in the ass to download a 1GB file to flash, my other devices were usually only like 165MB!!!

yes, after you flash ROM to to selected Rom slot, then select the kernel patch zip and flash that after ROM is installed.

I flashed the elclipse rom with no issue and did the kernel patch right after but I can't verify wifi as I am work. My wifi analyzer program sees our WAPs so thats a good thing.
I also did the GPE Rom and kernel patch and wifi does work. My only hiccup was I lost of radio/mobile data on the stock rom as well as GPE rom and took me a bit to see the network selection was not on CDMA/LTE/EVDO. Once I selected that, everything worked

@xxaqib Thanks for maintaining this thread! Really useful. i'm sure i'll be following future updates:good:
---------- Post added at 01:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 PM ----------
Btw which TWRP do you use @xxaqib? I used to install t0lteskt which supposed corresponding to my E250K. unfortunately nandroid backup doens't work, restoring any backups (even w/o space in filename) will result in bootloop.
Would like to share a few findings after using WIDzard kernel for 3 days.
1. The kernel probably needs to flash with widzard recovery which is a mod of Philz 6.57.5. My first attempt with philz touch 6.48.4-t0lte caused a strange bootloop: samsung logo > recovery > samsung logo > recovery....
2. 8~10% performance gains compared to stock kernel. The benchmark was not made on the same ground though.
stock kernel - DN3 v5 : 18239 @antutu 4.5
Widzard kernel - MawrickROM : 20988 @antutu 4.5
3. By overclocking to 1.8GHz, the performance is very decent. Sorry Aututu auto updated to v5, so oc benchmark was made on v5...
To conclude, I found widzard kernel is very smooth and stable. I didn't got a glitch in the past few days. I recommend people give it a try to report back if any issues to the author:highfive:

Yes my daily device is Z1. My wife uses Note2/E250 that's why I cannot mod it as easy as my Z1 - you know why! Everytime*before doing any mod to Note2*I need to do a quiet intensive research. I'm sure your thread will help a lot for those looking for resources. Note2 was a great phone but it needs a refreshment to make it still good in 2014!*

Sure, lots of people do. CM11 is still Beta Software. Incomplete, a work in progress, and pretty darned good. I used to think that Snapshot builds were "Official stable releases" by CyanogenMod. They are not, they are just another Nightly build that the company selects to "freeze in time" as a snapshot, so they can take official bug reports from the public. They do not take bug reports on Nightly builds. Because snapshots are "just another Nightly build" they are not as good as the current Nightly build because each new Nightly build is supposed to be an improvement over the last successive build, or, at least, that is the general idea. Some are really good, some are not so good, and some Nightly builds are pretty bad.
I cannot speak personally on the last Snapshot build as I do not install them and choose the Nightly builds instead. They are more current than the Snapshots.
The idea is to pick a known good Nightly build (I will tell you more about this in a minute.), clean out your rom slot by deleting it or wiping Data, System, Android Secure, Cache, and Dalvik Cache clear. That's right, start out totally clean. You then pick out a PA-GAPPS package that you like, Mini-Modular is recommended, and flash the cm11 Nightly build with the pa-gapps build, boot to System, and finish the Install Wizard. Good idea to go right to play store and shut off automatic updates so you can pick what to install and when. First up is getting your phone setup and finished, all working good, shiny and new. Uninstall any apps you will not use. Keep it clean and mean. One you get your rom setup and working well, you can then update through /Settings/About Phone/CyanogenMod Updates/ and pick your update. Try and make sure you pick a good one.
How to find "A known good Nightly ROM"
In the main developer thread for the Razr phones we discuss "Build Reports". I learned a good tip I will share with you now. Go to the developer thread mentioned and go all the way to the most recent posts. What you want to do is learn to "Mine the thread for good Nightly builds". Read backwards to find a Build Report. You will see where a member installed a new build and reports on it. "Installed Build 10/07 and all is good. Ran for a full day, no issues so far". That is a good build report. If you can find the same build mentioned by another member and he confirms the rom is good, all the better. Now you found a good Nightly build. Download it before it slips off the server. Flash this known good build with your pa-gapps and you are off to a good start. That is a good tip, learn to find "good Nightly builds" and avoid the bad ones.
Snapshots are nothing special and they are improved upon by the subsequent Nightly builds. When you get a good running build, back it up in Safe Strap. If the next Nightly build you install has problems or is "not as good or better" than what you had before, restore your backup. Point is that Nightly Builds are crap shoots. Some are good, some are bad. And Snapshot builds are Nightly builds.
Once you reach ten posts, you can post in the developer thread. Tips to make that easier:
Ask your question politely but read before you post as your question may already have been answered.
Use the "Search this thread" box at the bottom of the thread to see if what you want is already posted. I.e.: "build report"
Thank someone who helps you by tapping the Thanks button next to their post.
Report back how things worked out if you can.
The current Nightly builds are experiencing some problems. Last really good rom was on 10/07, you can tell by reading the file name like this cm-11-20141007-NIGHTLY-spyder.zip. Nightly build 10/10 is reported to be good as well, but I find 10/07 to be a little better, IMHO.
That should help you get a good running rom. To conserve battery, turn off WiFim Bluetooth, and WiFi-AP when not using them. Avoid heavy use CPU governors like "Performance" in Settings. Let us know if you get results. Hope this helps and Good luck. :good:

It was on the first page,now it isn´t,I don´t know why...
Here,I attached it for you,just open both zips and replace that folder in CM11 with this one.
Yes,you can wipe everything,but I suggest that you leave stock intact and to flash the rom on the system 2,that way you will have your working stock if anything goes wrong.
On European network, is better XT912 or XT910 ROM for XT912 phone?
Hello everyone, I'm new in the forum an I have a question, but before I tell you the story of my phone to better understand the situation.
I am owner of the RAZR (XT910) from the mid-2012 and at the end of 2012 I have bought a RAZR MAXX (XT912) with broken screen from the USA.
Therefore I converted my RAZR to MAXX swapping battery frame, battery, inner frame (the one with antennas, I also swapped the different antenna) and the back cover. I finally got a fully functional XT910 RAZR MAXX until June 2014, when the phone began to freeze.
The pone was on stock Motorola Jelly Bean, rooted and with some Xposed modules. Thinking about software problem, I restored the phone to default but the problem continued to recur. Unable to determine the cause of the problem (I also checked the flash memory via ADB with e2fsck with no damaged blocks reported), I flashed the CM11 ROM on the stock slot of SafeStrap. The phone became smoother but the freezes/black screens were still there. I went ahead continuing to update the rom hoping for a solution, but the feeling that it was a hardware problem became stronger and stronger. Yesterday, tired of the ever more frequent freezes, I decided to swap the motherboard of the phone with the one of the XT912 knowing that it could operate on the European network. I swapped the motherboards (that are glued to the screen, why Motorola, why? ) and put the antenna as it was originally. I finally got a XT912 RAZR MAXX with the screen of XT910.
After, I restored the data partition, the android secure partition and manually the internal memory; next I flashed the last Nightly for XT912 with mini PAGapp (not the full because the system partition on XT912 is 636MB and there isn't enough space, on XT910 it is 770MB; again: why Motorola, why? :crying.
After rebooting the phone and have discovered that my transplant of backups (done as a butcher ) had worked, I noticed that the phone doesn't recognize my SIM card. Searching the Internet I found that only with the original ROM the phone will operate on European networks and, for other ROMs, is necessary to apply a patch. After the flash of the patch the pone work correctly with the SIM and the problems of freezes are disappeared, indicating that it was a hardware problem (I hope ).
Today, driven by curiosity, I tried to flash the latest Nightly for XT910 in the first slot of SafeStrap to see if with it the XT912 motherboard will operate on the European network, and it did!
Now, the question is: for a xt912 on European network, is better the XT912 ROM with the patch or directly the XT910 ROM without it?
Waiting for an answer from someone more experienced than me, I apologize for the length of the post and for my bad English.
Thanks,
Marco.
thanx a lot,,,,,,

So I've had an issue for months that my ringtones and notifications didn't show up. I was only stuck with anything from a theme or the hangouts notification sound or call. I messed with the permissions and locations of the files and managed to get the ringtones and notifications to show up finally but i lost the UI sounds. Can someone give me the locations for Ringtones, Notifications, and UI sounds, and what the permissions for each should be set to? That would be amazing. Thanks in advance!

Very good Welder. Also you have custom sounds on /sdcard0/ in the following folders:
Alarms
Media
Notifications
Ringtones
root sdcard_r rwxrwx---
Media in these folders come from apps, Facebook, and custom ringtones like you make with RingDroid.
Really surprised you have these issues. To fix the system permissions, you can do a "Dwillian Dump" update. This will wipe out the /system partition and replace it with a fresh set of files and permissions.
Dwillian Dump:
Dwillian said:
Rather than doing OTA updates I've gotten into the habit of manually updating by booting into SafeStrap recovery, backing up current ROM if it seems good, then wiping system, cache, and dalvik cache. Then I install CM 11 nightly, PA GApps stock, and Play Services and Games update (optional, but recommended add-on module to be installed with PA GApps). I install all three zip files in this order and at the same time (i.e., add all three zip files before starting the install). Then I wipe cache and dalvik cache, and finally I reboot.

I did this for 10/16 and had very good results. But I did not do the optional play service zip file. Wiping the /system partition and allowing the new rom update to replace it should put back all the proper permissions for it.

Advice needed to upgrade from GB 2.3.6 to a newer version

I have been happily plodding along on CheckROM RevoHD v6.0 (GB 2.3.6) ('member CheckROM? I 'member) with Dark Knight kernel v2.5.2 since around 2012 but several apps I use need updating and the newer versions won't work below v4. I've held out as long as possible. So, it's time to bite the bullet and get back into flashing.
I've had a bit of a browse here and I'm a bit confused. It looks like the version of CWM I have (not sure of exact version, whichever one was current in early 2012, I haven't booted into it for over 4 years) will not allow me to install a newer ROM from the last couple of Android releases. Is TWRP the newer recovery I need? I also see a lot of talk about flashing a PIT file to repartition the internal SD for a larger system partition. That seems like a grand idea. Tired of moving stuff around to get a new app installed!
In summary, I just need a few pointers and tips on what to do next to move my S2 from CheckROM RevoHD 6 to a newer ROM. I know you can't really ask "what's the best ROM?" here but what's the best ROM? Just kidding...but I would like something stable (no constant FCs/random reboots), easy-ish on the battery, no bloatware etc. If it looks purdy that's nice too. Drop a few names to check out.
I don't need to be hand-held step by step, maybe just link me threads to follow in the right order and I'll be off.
Thanks all.

Hi
What i would do:
- make a backup
- update cwm to cwm 6.0.4.7
- clean flash of cm11 20161119 i9100.zip by @zjq985062714 + pico open gapps together with isorec recovery 3.0.2-1.zip by @the.gangster.
So you will have a good working rom and the latest isorec twrp recovery.
Then you can increase system and data Partitions by using lanchon repit tool.
This is a zip-file in which you can fill in your desired size. Choose 1.0GB for system and 4.0GB For data.
Flash then this zip-file in twrp recovery.
Now you are able to flash any cm12/cm13 and even cm14 (or stay on cm11 for a try)‘
I just want to mention that i always started from JB and not from GB but you have a custom recovery.
2 excellent noob friendly guides by @Saber:
- how to incease system partition .....
- want to update to cm13 ....

I understand, and thanks for the caution. Of course, nandroid backup will always be #1 on the to do list.
I do think i will need to do some more reading here to make sure I can achieve what I want the way I want.
