[Q] how can i flash latest renderbroken kernel? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

I have a previous version of renderbroken's kernel for gs2 att. I am using omni rom along with it. Now i wish to update the kernel. But i am a newbie and i am not sure how to go about it. Will i have to flash my omni rom again after i flash the kernel. And also is it possible to flash kernel using current twrp or i have to flash it with mobile odin??

Just flash the kernel in your current TWRP recovery. No wiping is necessary and you won't lose any rom data.

These are all CWM zips. So flash via CWM just like anything else(i.e Roms)
Thanks. By the way, do you know where I can get the Entropy kernel? I go to the forum and see a lot of links and I don't know which one to choose

[Q] Updating to a Jelly Bean Custom Rom

Hi there!
I am wanting to update my Samsung Galaxy GT-i9300 but am worried about the process because of having installed a custom kernel previously (would this muck up installing a new custom rom I wonder..)
Please find attached a screenshot of the settings and please tell me what I should do (if anything needs done) before I flash a new custom rom.
Cheers!
if you're worried about kernels, then just flash stock kernel then flash a custom rom on it.

kk, could you provide me with a suitable stock kernel (or links to one) which will be compatible with the rom I have installed?
any stock kernel that is for jb will be fine.

I am on android version 4.0.4 (so technically not JellyBean). and its safe to flash a stock kernel for JB despite being on that version before I flash a custom rom?
Sorry for asking, get confused easily..
you should be fine updating with a custom kernel (as all roms flash a kernel as well). Just make sure you factory reset when moving from ics to JB as you will most likely encounter problems if you don't.

I would suggest flashing ICS stock kernel first if you're worried. I thought you were already on jb.

Easy
Reflash the stock ics ROM
And flash any custom ROM you want

Error status code 7 when flashing ROMs usually means the install script failed an assert when trying to determine if you have the correct model of phone that the ROM is intended for.
Where did you download the copy of CM10.1 from? Are you sure that it is for your model of phone? According to your signature, you have an I9100. Are you sure you didn't download CM10.1 for I9100G, for example?

This is because your likley using Philz kernel for leaked JB.
To flash other custom roms you will need to change kernel back to a previous ICS or JB kernel like Siyah.
Flash the kernel (.tar version) via ODIN/Mobile ODIN.

Thx, I didn't know this about Philz... Mainly because I'm avoiding JB until Samsung releases an official version.

But I'm not using philz kernel, I never flashed it..
I just flashed this leaked firmware few days back.. That's it!!
Anyways, but most of them say to not use siyah kernel with cm 10.1... Rather use dorminax kernel with it, what you say about it?

Hey
Flash dorimanax but don't boot and then flash cm10.1

You need to change kernel. Flash Siyah kernel via ODIN (PDA section) then you will have new recovery that will flash rom you want.
I flashed Rootbox asop based from philz recovery just do a full wipe
Then flash .

I suggest you to use Philz kernel, it's a stock kernel with only busybox, root, and custom recovery included. Check the thread here.
If you just don't want all theses features and just want a non rooted kernel, you can just extract the zImage from the stock rom and flash it via mobile odin.
