Custom kernel CM10.1 - OTA updates still available? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have CM10.1 nightly installed, all stock. If I decide to flash a custom kernel such as dorimanx, am I still able to update via CM10 updater?
I assume that it will override the kernel and I just reflash over again?
Any one confirm?
Cheers.

Try and feed bk or ask in cm thread. Reflash will give you stock kernel bk.

Updating via CM10 updater WILL replace ur kernel with the stock CM kernel.
You WILL have to flash Dori again.

Are you concerned about the BrickBug?
Don't worry mate.. that only affects stock 4.0.4 firmware with stock kernels.
Just follow the OP's instructions on Turkbey ROM thread.

CM kernel is a custom kernel, and brickbug only affects stock kernels. So no worries..
But if u still aren't convinced, u can flash Philz safe kernel, and then flash Turkbey.

Phone doesn't reboot after flashing Siyah Kernel 5.0.1

My phone won't reboot after flashing Siyah Kernel 5.0.1 with Mobile Odin. The Samsung logo and what I assume is a Siyah logo appears, but no matter what I try to get into (download/recovery/normal) it doesn't work. What is wrong? o;
Edit: I have a GT-I9100T on rooted stock 4.1.2 ROM and stock recovery btw.
Reflash rom it will restore stock kernel. What rom you on?
Edit: I9100 t. This for I9100.

Managed to get into recovery and download mode after a few minutes and flashed custom ROM, never been so glad to see the samsung start up logo. Ahh, that's the end of me messing with my phone...going to stick to stock ROM and kernel.
Probably best.

Happy for you mate!
I will give a probable explanation as to what happened:
Siyah v5.0.1 supports AOSP JB 4.1.2, but not stock JB 4.1.2! That's why ur phone didn't boot! You should have flashed v6.0b5.

HELP! about samsung galaxy s2 kernel and custom ROM

i rooted my device with a siyah kernel s2 v6.ob5+ on my samsung galaxy s2 i9100m. and it says on the website that it is not compatible with the cm10.1 custom rom. does any of you know how to change the kernel to something compatible with cm10.1? or do you know any custom rom compatible with this kernel? I AM OPEN TO ANY suggestions and recommendations. my battery wont last more than 3 hours with my rooted samsung galaxy s2 i9100m on official jelly bean 4.1.2. i need a better kernel or custom rom (4.2.2) that is friendly to my battery life. A BIG THANKS.
When u flash CM10.1, the Siyah kernel u now have is replaced by the CM10.1 kernel. So u won't have any issues.
Kernel supporting CM10.1 - Dorimanx
ROMs that Siyah v6 supports - Stock JB, custom JB ROMs based on stock JB (Omega, NeatRom, Alliance etc)

Thats better! Always mention some stuff you tried or read, so that we feel you have tried to search and failed.
You can flash Siyah or Philz kernel.
Or if u don't want a custom recovery, use this guide:

According to you , which kernel will you recommend for my phone ? Siyah or Philz or Dorimanx or Jeboo or any other which i am not aware of ..Maybe you've tried many kernels and roms so you have basic idea about that stuff

Sorry, but recommendations are not allowed on this forum. I suggest you try and see which u like.
To be honest, it doesn't matter which u choose, because once u flash a custom rom, the kernel will be replaced.
If ur really confused...
Philz - same as stock, but improved custom recovery
Siyah - custom kernel, more features, more tweaks
Dorimanx - based on siyah, heavily tweaked and tuned
Jeboo - haven't personally tried, but I think its a tweaked stock kernel

OK, will do.
I think it is the Kernel I am using....3.0.64-CM-ge8aa6a7
Is the recovery tool built into the kernel? If so, can anyone recommend;
a) a different kernel?
or
b) How I can flash to the latest Revolt 4.3 ROM as I have only been running the Revolution ROM until his new build was released (Needs TWRP to install)
Ta muchly.
Yes it's built into the kernel. Dorimanx 9.xx will be good for 4.3 rom and also I'm guessing cm10.1 4.2.2 rom. It's cwm but should install that rom and run it. Also Apollo kernel has twrp if it's a must and seems to run 4.3,have a read of the thread.
