Gumbo 1.5 + Modacos Custom Kernel

So I want to put gumbo 1.5 + modacos custom kernel on my phone but I don't want to wipe, or if I do wipe i want to keep all my apps. What is the optimal solution? Im rooted and I have modaco 2.0 on it right now. Help a newbie out
Oh yea by the way, is flashing a kernel the same procedure as flashing a rom? Thanks.

No...flashing a kernel only replaces the kernel portion of the ROM. The software and customizations remain intact.
I put Modaco's custom Rom over TTG 0.1.6 and Fresh 1.1 without issues.

I meant is it applied the same way. And I wanted to put Gumbos rom on it as I read thats fastest.

The dev who built that ROM also built a kernel that goes with it. If you want to flash the Gumbo ROM, then look into the Gumbo kernel as well. Theres nothin wrong Modacos though.

Oops...sorry, completely misread that.
Yes...it is applied the same way.
Apply the rom first, then the kernel. Otherwise the rom will overwrite the kernel.

i suggest to wipe before installing gumbo rom.I ran into alot of issues from modaco to gumbo..I had to go back to stock and start all over again and install gumbo everything is good now.

Yeah I am running gumbo 1.5 b and gbills custom kernal..... had a few issues during the first install wiped and reinstalled and it is working fine right now

ok then back to one of my original questions again, is there a way i can keep my 60 or so apps :S

Use titanium to backup all apps.You can get that from the market it's free.I use that myself and it's a great program

You don't need to wipe, just flash it over Gumbo.

How to Remove Themes from SuperD?

I'm just curious about how to remove themes from SuperD ROM?
Thanks :]

If you have flashed a custom theme, then the only way to remove is to flash the rom again.
If you want to remove the theme of superd, go flash another rom.

Haha okay that's what I figured but wasn't sure,
Thanks ;]

[Q] Custom ROM Bluetooth problem

Hi,
I finally rooted and installed my first rom about a week ago.
I chose ''Gingerbread 2.3.3 CM7 J007- Jerpelea'' but my bluetooth isn't working for some reason?
Jerpelea says the bluetooth is working in his rom so I'm just wondering is this just me having this problem? Or am I maybe doing something wrong?
Link to his rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=973753
Thanks in advance.

it worked for me too. Did you try to reflash ROM and factory reset?

I recommend you XGin 4.0, its the best ginger available.

Yes I factory reset and re-installed the rom using xrecovery.

If I was to do this, is there a way to keep all my apps this time? Because it was really annoying losing everything when I installed CM the first time.

You should wipe cache first.. but you want to flash a kernel over and official rom? why dont you try a custom one?

trust me the official rom (at least the gingerbread version) has more "bugs" than most custom roms..
