hi
i want to overclock GT-I9300..
can i do so by flashing cm..
if so how to flash cm & from where can i get cm for s3
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
U can get cm for s3 from cyanogenmode.com . To flash cm u need a rooted s3 with clock work mode . Download the rom n paste it in the phone . Then go to recovery mode wipe factory data then wipe daviks catch and after that select the file from the phone in install it.. !! U are done..!!

You don't need to be on CM to overclock it and I seriously advise doing some reading, since the nature of your question indicates either a reluctance to read or a low knowledge base, in either case, messing with o/c is inadvisable until you fully understand the process/risks /problems you may encounter.
Start by looking at the kernel threads
listen to that advise..no need to (soft)brick your phone by not knowing what u are doing..
u will end up making a new thread,asking how to repair your phone from a bootloop
It is a matter of kernel capable of overclocking, not ROM

No u dont need to change ROM to do so....it is the KERNEL that manages your cpu (through "governors" or profiles) and sets its frequencies, it will not change in any way your rom's functionality(except if you mod performance...)...
BEFORE DOING ANYTHING, I ADVISE YOU GATHER SOME INFO OFF THE WEB ABOUT OVERCLOCKING, KERNELS, ROMS, AND RECOVERIES, THEN U CAN FOLLOW MY 'INSTRUCTIONS':
For overclocking i recommend flashing through clockworkmod(a kind of recovery easily installed by downloading of the play store and using rom manager) the siyah kernel for galaxy s3.
I will although remember u that the internation s3 cpu (dont know about the usa version) has ALREADY been overclocked (from 1.2 to 1.4ghz i think, but im not sure) and overclocking it even more will result in possibly/likely faster battery drainage(i have 2800mah battery in fact).
I also advise not to overclock it above 1600mhz...cpu master app is great for this, but extweaks(app for tweaking siyah kernel) can do this as well.

Warning! Super noob question:
I was just wondering if my stock ROM can be over clocked. I have SetCPU but it appears that the max values have Lready been set as high as they will go (1500 mhz). If I want to go higher do I need a custom ROM or kernel? I just rooted my Note and I've never done this before. Honestly I don't have much of a clue as to what I'm doing lol.

U need a custom kernel just flash one that is compatible
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
You can do it on the stock ROM, you just need an OC kernal. So you can either flash the kernal through Odin, or flash CWM, then flash the kernal.
Sweet. Thanks guys. I got tired of trying to mess with the over clocking and just flashed the ICS ROM over. Its buggy.. but I suppose it will do until the legit one comes out.

Hi everyone I am new to this all just wanting to know can you run a custom kernel on a stock tomorrow.
If so what are the advantages etc also which would you recommend .
I have rooted phone and installed recovery I am currently running stock ics 4.03.
Any help would be great thanks

Read the first page of the thread for the kernel you want to try. That will tell you which roms it's compatible with.
No suggestions. Reasons being you use your phone differently to everyone else, have it set up differently & no two phones come out of the factory the same. So you won't have exactly the same experience as me with a given rom or kernel. Also, many people who are users of a particular rom or kernel end up being total fanboys, rendering their opinion on same biased/meaningless.
So...Try out a bunch of roms/kernels until you find one you like. With CWM, it's so easy to backup/restore & flash roms/kernels there's no excuse for you not trying a bunch out for yourself.
Thanks man

Hello
My mom just got her S2 and I want to root it and install a custom kernel. I'm experienced at rooting my own galaxy s, but I just want to confirm a couple of things:
1. Is the install method the same as i9000, as in using cf-root via odin, then wipe cache and dalvik, then flash custom kernel?
Heard about a yellow triangle on s2, will it show when using custom kernel, if so can I just fix it with the app on the market using the stock rom?
What kernel do you recommend? Looking for a kernel that is giving the extra little smoothness, oc capability, maybe frees up some ram (aka bigmem on i9000), custom lmk and deep idle. However stability is more important than features.
Best regards

for rooting using cf root kernel check the link below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487
try the latest siyah kernel dwnld the .tar file and flash thro odin
PS: it has dual boot option so that u can have 2 roms installed and ofcourse both of them should be ICS roms
for yellow triangle u can use triangle away app but it works only with ICS
This is my first post and i was wondering if people could answer some questions i have.
First off heres my phones specs
Samsung galaxy s2
Model number
GT-I9100
Android version
4.0.3
Baseband version
I9100XXLPQ
Kernel version
3.0.15-I9100XXLPQ-CL223505

I've rooted my phone using rachmat3 method and thats how far i've got because only just got phone as a gift and im scared to flash a new rom incase i brick my phone.
Is it safe to use the cwm.zip to flash a rom that i used from rachmat3 root method or do i need a updated version of cwm?
Can someone recommend a fully working paranoid android rom that i can use for daily use?
Which kernel would be best to use with paranoid android rom?
Should i flash a kernel before i flash a rom?
If i install paranoid android rom would i then have a permanant cwm on my device or would i still need to use my temporery cwm.zip?
What is the chances of me bricking my phone?

Flash what ever rom u want till its for GT-I9100
No need to worry
Just read the specific rom instructions carefully
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Yes mate now u can flash any Rom ....Just read the instruction before flashing
I would advise you to flash a safe kernel first before doing any wipe and flashing any roms. Siyah is a safe bet.

1. Download ROM Manager and you'll be able to flash any ROMs you wish using that.
2. All the PA versions are working fine, so just browse through and choose for yourself.
3. Asking questions like that is against forum rules because they often lead to arguments. The best advice is just to download and flash different kernels and stick with which ever one you're happy with.
4. It really doesn't matter in which order you flash them. The result is still the same. I personally always flash the ROM first, but it doesn't make a difference.
5. If you use ROM Manager, as mentioned previously, even if you have to do a full wipe when flashing a different ROM, it doesn't matter because you can simply download it again anyway. Or just save it to your SD card.
6. The changes if bricking your phone are higher if you're worried about it. Just be sure to read all instructions given about installation and follow them perfectly and you'll be fine.
If after reading about flashing ROMs you are still worried, then you're better off waiting for a bit until you've done more research into what exactly is needed.
I'm a product of the system I was born to destroy!
Thanks for your replys.
just follow the steps mentioned and follow some video (like on youtube) and it'll be easy!
Would it be to much to ask if someone could put a link to the right paranoid android rom for my phone please

I don't recommend using ROM Manager since it can brick the phone.
Why don't flash custom kernel and use real CWMR?

Most ROM zips include kernels, so if somebody wants to stay with the same kernel, then it's necessary to flash custom kernel again.

I agree, I wouldn't recommend rom manager for the s2

I just mentioned ROM Manager from personal preference to be honest.
I've always used it on my S2 and never had a problem with it.

You will need a pc if for example you flash a kernel and somethings not right.You cant get cwm, only download mode.
That happened to me when I flashed a siyah kernel.Phone was stuck and I couldnt boot into cwm.Only way to fix was boot to download mode and use odin/pc.

I can help you from here, pretty simple
Within the next 30 mins, you should be running PA.
First, flash Siyah kernel with your temporary CWM recovery. Very safe
when you are done, let me know

may anyone help me...i will be very thankful to you
N.B. it runs on 4.0.4 official now
You can flash PhilZ-kernel with built-in CWM recovery. Have a look at PhilZ-kernel thread to find the appropriate kernel for you.

In http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877270 you can find your appropriate kernel, but you need to choose the right one, because the latest kernels are for JellyBean only.
No, you don't need Odin/heimdall and you don't' need a PC even if it's better to have one at hand when it comes to issues.
One hint: read and try to understand everything before flashing. If you are unsure, ask, otherwise there is a chance to brick the device, especially with 4.0.4 stock (-> brick bug)

okay thanks dude, but is there a safe one even if with a PC, I'm used to rooting and flashing recovery mods and kernels using PC and odin for my s3 and it is very safe and no chance of bricking the phone, so is there a similar way for s2 ?

thanks a lot bro, will give it a try today
btw im going to flash the latest jellybam on i9100 so will siyah have any problem regarding the ROM ? i mean will there be any lag or something ?
CWM matters, not the kernel you're actually on.
Of course if you're on 4.0.4's kernel you can't wipe.

The Siyah kernel will be overwritten during the jellybam flash anyway......so as mentioned. ...the kernel doesn't matter/won't cause compatibility issues
