[Q] SiyahKernel S3-v1.6RC with viking rom - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

will this version of siyah kernel work with viking or pretty much any sammy rom????[ i'm only a month old with android so still a noob] really wanted a better opinion as messinh up kernel definitely leads to bricking !!!!

If you possessed the ability to read, look around and search, you'd notice by now that Siyah Kernel 1.6X supports only stock JB builds and unless I'm heavily mistaken (which I rarely am), VikingROM is indeed based on stock JB which means Siyah Kernel 1.6RC will work. Although, since it's an RC, do not expect it to be rock solid.

RC is release candidate. In layman's terms it's a beta version released to the public.

How to know which kernel is correct?
As of now I am using Sensation rom which has Siyah kernel 2.5.2 and I want to flash speedmod kernel or N.E.A.K. Kernel,
N.E.A.K. Kernel only supports sammy roms
I tried to search but I could not find out if Sensation rom is aosp or sammy do you have any idea of it?
also does speedmod kernel support both as nothing it written about it on its thread
Thanks

Normally on the first page of a rom thread you will get a description what is the rom. For example MIUI is well MIUI. Hyperdroid is sammy deodex rom with of course modifications and tweaks in the build to make it better than stock.
Sensation rom is sammy deodex no aosp nothing like that. And when you normally look for an AOSP rom it normally would say it in the heading of the thread anyway.
On the kernel thread it has a guide of what roms the kernel works on and which ones it does not. Siyah works basically with any rom. CM7 to AOSP to sammy deodex. Regarding Simone's kernel which is the NEAK version or something like that it is based on only sammy stock deodex roms and that is mainly the ones in original development and android..just look out for deodex, sammy and stock rom
AS above its all a question of reading the info on the first page of the kernel post .
Plus if it does not work flash another one .
the Neak kernel should be ok been on mine for a few days .
Speedmod likewise ok have used it before .

Thanks everyone for their wonderful help!
I have got one last question
Speedmod kernel says "it is only for Samsung Gingerbread ROMs. It will not work with CyanogenMod or MIUI ROMS!"
does this means it will not work with sensation rom?
Edit: ok looks like the different versions are just the updated ones
But still the question is if it supports sensation rom?

Now, if you look at the VERY FIRST page for SensatioN ROM,, it says:
SensatioN ROM Features:
-Based on Samsung Firmware XWKK5 Android 2.3.6
With all of this information, you should be able to deduce that the Speedmod kernel WILL work with your ROM. If you still don't understand, I'm going to suggest you don't flash anything to your phone, for fear of ending up with a paperweight.
Ok this time I understand everything
I didn't knew that Sammy roms means that the ROM is based on Samsung's stock ROM
Also I thought that speedmod only works on stock ROM so all this things got me confused
But anyways now its all clear

Thankyou so much
is there a direct download link to ics then ? and thankyou for your very quick reply...Regards from brian
There are no stable ICS releases for SGS2. You can find two ICS roms, one leaked from Sammy and another is CM9.
Though alpha CM9 is pretty stable .. check out the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410400
Learn how to restore before flashing an unfinished Beta rom on my phone would be my first step .

LOTS more reading!
CM9 is good, but it sounds like it's high risk for you at the moment - it's not all plain sailing if and when you get there.
Why not wait a few weeks for a more stable version.
I would say your better off waiting mate, maybe flash vertumus's ics theme until a stable version is out.

[Kernel] ICS 4.0.3 Stock Kernel

Don't flash this as you already have one from ur ICS ROM! I just did not see any Stock Kernel that is the reason why i made a thread!
Haven't seen a stock ICS 4.0.3 kernel in development section so i m just dropping stock kernel in case some one needs it.
It meant we'll have mod kernel soon? Better battery faster ... everything.
Sent from my AT&T Galaxy Noteā„¢ - please forgive any typos
ummm... what?! Is this i717 specific, or just the AOSP 4.0.3 kernel? How did we get this for the i717 without source? Where is it from? So many questions!!!11 lol
If this is for real, someone please throw a bucket of ice water (and/or trout) on Da_G...
I have tried to use this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20806471&postcount=1 to inject init.d support into the stock kernel but cannot tell if it worked. It worked on the stock ICS kernel for the Asus Transformer according to this post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23005237&postcount=104
Anyone else more familiar with init.d care to try it? It did give me an init.d folder, and the command prompt on PC seemed like it was successful but I can't tell from the file it placed in init.d after first boot if it was successful or not. I tried putting a supercharger script in the init.d folder but it doesn't seem to be working.
edit: Also at the risk of sounding dumb I don't know what set permission as 755 is. I tried to set the permissions of the folder to match the other folders in the directory.
I don't understand why are guys so happy about this ?
This kernel (boot.img) is already in ICS ROMs,
you can just unzip one of those ROMs or the leak and there you have it !
They need kernel SOURCE to do overclock etc.

I was assuming this was source... which, as my previous post indicates, wouldn't make sense.
Otherwise, you're right, this isn't anything special. Nice to have separately? Sure, I guess...
so what is a kernal is this a ics leak, im a nubie and pretty stupid.
thanks
Guys, this is STOCK ICS 4.0.3 Kernel. In other words, the kernel that was provided with the leak. It's unmodified.

yes we know this.......which is not that useful for the dev....as they need the source code for the kernel.....without the source code....we can't OC/undervolt and do all the lovely things that we need...
I've been wanting a stock ICS version as there have been a few bugs that I can't get away from with the two mods I've tried... Maybe it's ICS, maybe it's me, but now I can see how the original runs. Thanks!

You do know this is just the kernel right? If you flash only this after a full wipe, you're not going to have a booting Android phone.
You sure? I would think it would be more like flashing it to what is already in it, unless, this is not for the i717.

I think he means if you flash it after a "full" wipe, meaning clearing the system. If you just do a data and cache wipe it should be fine, if of course you are running an ICS ROM.

...which already has the same kernel, so there would be no point.
If this isn't source, then I don't understand what this is for. Every i717 ICS leak currently available has this kernel already included. Having it on your SD card just in case isn't really going to do anyone any good, since everyone running any of the currently available ICS ROMs is already running this very kernel. If this is acceptable, then I won't be surprised to see others parting out the leak and posting pieces of it in the dev section, when it really belongs in General since it isn't source. Please don't flame me, just trying to make a point.

It's pretty useful for noobs who flashed DaG's kernel mistaking it for an ICS kernel.
OP is pretty misleading. There is no reason to flash this at the moment.

Actually, I dont understand what the big deal is...
There are stock roms in the development thread aren't there?
Stock Odin recovery image:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1506330
Stock boot & recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1504999
Strange that no one *****ed about these being in Android Development... I dont see what the difference is.
All this is is the stock kernel from the ICS leak taken out and made available for flashing in case you want to flash the stock kernel FROM THE ICS LEAK (so, if you are still on stock GB, this wont be helpful, this is ONLY useful if you are running the stock, unmodified ICS leak and have changed the kernel and want to revert back to the stock ICS kernel from the leaked ICS rom).
The OP is pretty self explanatory, in fact, the title of the thread is pretty self explanatory. I mean, ICS 4.0.3 STOCK KERNEL sounds pretty clear to me.
My only beef is not with the thread or its location but the lack of organization on XDA. There should literally be a category for ROMS, another for mods & themes & apps, and another for stock images. Q&A should be removed and combined with General. Given the limitation of the current choices, this doesnt fit under General, Q&A, Themes and Apps, or Accessories. The next best fit is Android Development. This is of course all my opinion.

Stock kernels belong in General.

I really didn't want to jump back into this, and it seriously doesn't bother me at all that this was posted... that said, there are NO modified ICS kernels on our Notes right now (we're all on the same kernel at the moment), so this won't become useful until someone modifies one (as appdroid apparently intends to do to add init.d) -- and even then, it will need to be replaced once the official ICS build/source gets released.
Either way, like I said, this thread doesn't bother me at all... appdroid's dev efforts on the Note are much appreciated!

People think I get it if I'm wrong correct me.
The Kernell is developed or adapted to work with the ROM's second version of its origin or android. Some kernels will work with AOSP ROM and its derivatives with other ROM's and other AOSPK with ROMS based Stock.
I think my ROM is based on the 9100 stock ported to i777. Siyah kernel will not run on it.

White Knight time.
That kernel works for both AOSP and Sammy(TouchWiz) based roms.
The rom you are trying to install it on is one made for the i777. Yes the base is from the GT-9100 but the developer has made it for our phones.

noob question number 5

ok guys
am having isues dual booting
installed syrah kernel fine and used STweaks to set up 2nd rom
am using a cyanogenmod 10.1 version as my 2nd rom
but it just boots into the cyanogen spinning logo - and goes no further!?
is the 4.2.1 not compatable?
thanks guys in advance
I'm not sure
After install 2nd rom you have to flash siyah kernel is it OK this part?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
yep reflashed the kernel
You will need to find out what Siyah kernel you are running as not all support dual boot.The latest version s3-v1.8.8 is meant to work with dual boot and has cm10.1 support.Check it out and download from here.
http://www.gokhanmoral.com/
Dont forget that after installing the second ROM you will have to re-install Siyah cos the secondary ROM probably wont have the correct kernel.Also a 4.2.1 ROM may need a different Siyah version than a 4.1.2 or a 4.1.1 ROM and this could also be the problem if you have 2 different firmwares running.
When on dual boot you have one kernel controling both.
ok that makes sense
have siyah version s3-v1.8.8 already running
reinstalled siyah after 2nd rom installation
still a no go
thought the siyah kernel was 'one kernel to rule them all'.......
or so it says.........

If I remember from when I dual booted a second ROM I had to full wipe install it.I imagine that you did but you could try and pass your primary ROM to secondary and full wipe install the new one.Then just swap them over again so the full wipe primary goes to secondary and the one you passed to secondary will come back as your main ROM.....if you get what I mean.Kind of a wierd explanation:silly:
The boot problen is definitly to me a kernel issue anyway.
yeah - will do the clone/swap thing!
