Hi, as the topic states, does anyone know where i can download one and flash? my setup on my sig is current.
thanks
So you're trying to run the official kernel with a custom ROM? Why?
why not? and what prevents me from running an official kernel? to OC and drain my batteries? other than that, what else?
edit/
what may keep me from using an official kernel is the 15MB additional ram. however i was under the impression that if I had radio 2.22.27.08, and H-Boot 1.33.0013(d), it doesnt limit me from using any of the froyo kernels floating around. if im incorrect with my assumptions, can someone enlighten me?

Because you can't OC is probably the main reason. The only other one I can think of is the random battery drain that some kernels experience.
On the plus side I can think of stability and battery life. Knock yourself out, I'm sure someone can post it for you.
I have the zip file for the 2.2 OTA but I have no idea where to find the kernel.

IMO, the current ROm im using (TheOfficial) is working wonderfully. I care less about overclocking since I don't play games and dont find the need for the applications I use to be overclocked. Also the UI response on the ROM is incredible.
You are right, until the other ROMs iron out the random battery drain, which I have experiences in both CM7 and pershoot kernels, i wont be using them because i do not like having to restart the phone every time after i charge. ezterry's current kernel always gives me the green screen. however, ez's older kernel doesn't, but I prefer running the latest unmodified kernel.
I'm satisfied using a non-oc kernel and would rather set the mim clock freq. to ~177.
Makes sense. If you can figure out how to extract the kernel from that zip I linked you to, you should have your kernel.

lol, thats my problem. I don't. I also have athe official OTA Froyo image for mt3g. but i have no idea how to extract and apply it to the current OS. Thanks for the offer though. i'll try to find a way to do it. was just hoping someone had a flashable official kernel laying around they'de like to share.
I hit a brick wall. I guess i'll just stick with ezBiffTestKernel20101106-2708_S based on kernel 2.6.34.7. It's a bit old but it will suffice until i figure it out. At least I don't have to reboot every time I pull from the USB charger.
/edit
Btw, can anyhone remember that the OTA kernel version was?

Naw but you could always nandroid back to stock and look. If I could figure out how to delete my google account info from my nandroids I'd email one to you. I still have a few from my mt3g.

thats ok dude. too much trouble on your part. gonna try out koush-AnyKernel-a09a6f1 or dsixda_Android_Kitchen_0.113 and see what i come up with. (fish'in). and im sure there's a ROM out there that doesnt have a modified kernel i can extract from. Just cant figure out how to get it from the offical OTA archive

Actually there might be a legal copyright issue with distributing oem kernels in custom ROMs. I don't know for sure though.
Shouldn't been since the kernel code is open source, but I'm not sure either. I did find a guide to extracting kernel's from ROM's but it requires that you are either running Linux or are running Linux in a virtual environment.

The kernel is open source. I dont think i have a problem there. Its gapps that we can not redistribute. i read that from CM forum.

thanks! if u can find the link again, i'd be grateful. im on a unix (Mac) environment, so i might be able to do it. if not on Mac, I already have vmware fusion installed and its not a problem slapping on the latest Ubuntu.
I did find a how-to on CM wiki that required a boot.img and fastboot to flash. also found one requiring zimage from a rom. but i could not find the zimage file from the TMO Froyo OTA. lol.
Here's what I was reading. Which is doing the boot.img method.

Glad I happened to go back a page...
The official kernel is meant to go with 0013 and 28.25 so yes, you should still have the additional RAM, which this phone desperately needs.
2.6.32.9-g94b855e
[email protected]#1 is what my phone says and I just received the OTA update a few days ago. Hope this is what you were looking for!
I've been trying to figure this out all day. I actually have a linux installation already but none of the download links for the perl files work. If you have them please upload them somewhere and I'll make us a flashable AnyKernel update.zip.

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to this site and guess it's my first time to start a thread. First of all I've been reading this site for so long and I have learned a lot. Thank you for this wonderful site for teaching me how to install different kernel and roms. Because of this I would like to bring back what I know to the community by letting you know how to install one of my favorite rom the fast and easy way. Thank you Darky for your wonderful rom all credits goes to you.
Please note that this is the easiest way if you don't want to do a lot of hacking in your pc like installing any software like odin just to install Darky's rom.
*** I do not make any guarantee of this type of procedure but I have tried it using 3 different galaxy s as me and my friends has successfully done this procedure, follow at your own risk, this is tested only on Firmware 2.2 Baseband I900XXJPY ***
Let's make this short and here is how you do it.
*** Daryk's rom installation for dummies unorthodox ***
Note: I love the dummies books so don't get offended with this. Just like to name it like this because the book offers fast easy way to learn things.
Step 1: Download z4root, install and root your phone. Click Here
Step 2: Download speedmod one click install in android market and install.
Step 3: Download Darky's Rom configurator in android market and install.
Step 4: Open Darky's Rom Configurator and leave everything default except kernel option just pick speedmod, you can configure anything you want at your own risk.
Step 5: Download Darky's Rom Zip File Click Here look for Normal CWM Version. Transfer it to your internal memory do not extract just transfer the zip.
Step 6. Shutdown your galaxy s.
Step 7: Go to your clockworld menu by clicking the up volume key + on button + home button all at the same time, once you see the Galaxy S screen let go of the buttons.
Step 8: In the menu scroll down to install from zip from sdcard and press your home screen to select.
Step 9: In the menu scroll down to choose zip from sdcard. Then locate where you put your Dary's Rom. Then select it by pressing your home button. This should install Dary's Rom.
Step 10: Once done select the go back menu and then reboot menu on your clockworld screen. Wait a while it takes time to go to your home screen after the first reboot as it's doing some configurations it may take 5 to 7 minutes.
and thats it you should have the darky's rom v 9.3 installed. If there is anything you want to modify in this guide let me know and I will gladly do it for you.
Credits goes out to Darky, My Friends Gimo for helping and for some good inputs, I'm pretty sure that he lurks around here and helps at times and Wilfredo for letting us use his phone as a sacrifice lamb hehehe.

You could be right that's why I have a disclaimer. I will try to update this as necessary if you have another alternative and you are sure that it works as easy kindly let me know and we will update this thanks.
I appreciate your effort but for sure you need to make it complete or to mention on which devices it worked without any problems...
Just check 1st post from Darky thread and there you will see somewhere the wording:
>> [Guide] Installation Guide for First Time Users
which links to Darky's installation notes at http://darky.ficeto.com/community/i...-installation-guide-for-first-time-users.315/
Maybe you can work on that one explaining in more detail each step for newbies (btw. "noobs" isn't the same as "newbies" and it shouldn't be used only when you are mocking someone)
Good luck,
B.
c4root doesn't work with 2.2.1 roms the step just to install cwm to flash speedmod is kind of useless you can just flash darkys resurrection with odin download darky config and flash the newest version.... all steps together 10min without download....
you could use one click root beforehand so you can use titanium backup... .
guide 4steps :
1 flash darkys resurrection
2 download darky config and configure
3.flash newest darky
4. have fun

Thanks for your advice mate. I will follow your advice on explaining things in detail, for the guide however I already got to that guide long before and that is what I used on my own handphone but the alternative steps that I presented is what I and my friends found to be the easiest way.
For the devices on which one works, I have it on my disclaimer in red.

Just a warning so not to confuse people that really are beginners and probably wont realise this... You might want to change the part where it says 2.2 JPY to 2.2.1 JPY at the top of the first post.

Before we did this our firmware was really 2.2 and baseband is 1900XXJPY.
I would not recommend installing darky's resurrection as it auto lagfixes due to it using voodoo kernel.
Just flash any froyo rom and then speedmod for cwm, then flash your custom rom.

JPY is 2.2.1 which is what speedmod kernel is compatible with.
JPY isnt 2.2 thats completey different... 2.2 was for baseband JPM etc in earlier versions...
I think that if somebody tried to flash speedmod kernel onto 2.2 they would run into problems.
Also mate just to pick up on something else... Im not 100% sure on this but i dont think that z4root works on 2.2.1 JPY it only works on 2.2 ( or that was my understanding of it a long time ago... it could have been updated somehow to work on 2.2.1 )
Superoneclick root is the most renowned way to root a 2.2.1 device...
Not trying to rape your thread or anything mate... Im just trying to give some constructive feedback to make this thread as accurate as possible.
If it wasn't for these threads a lot of people would get no where.
There are loads of different ways to get darkyy's rom onto a your device from flash cf-root for 2e and installing rom manager from the market for CWM or flashing speedmod kernel for the CWM built in and then flashing the CWM version of the rom but if your looking for the FASTEST way, it would have to be going through ressurection if im completely honest.
Well that the speedmod kernel dont work on 2.2 is definitley wrong! I am on stock 2.2 and i am using k13c - works nicely. Also in the speedmod thread he states that the kernel works with every 2.2 or 2.2.1 rom.

- Based on JPX Android 2.2.1 kernel source
- Works on all stock Froyo 2.2 and 2.2.1 ROMs and popular custom ROMs
Thanks for the correction i apologise.
I was just going on the fact i knew it was based on 2.2.1 firmware, but as you say yes it does work on 2.2 aswel.
Thanks for clarifying that. My mistake
Would this work on GT-I9000 with Firmware version 2.2?
Sorry - newbie alert here:
My phone's "settings->About Phone" screen says:
Model Number: GT-I9000
Firmware version: 2.2
Baseband version: I9000HVJP3
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #6
Build number: FROYO.HVJP4
It's a phone from Vodafone Australia which was upgraded from the original 2.1 to the official 2.2 via Kies then root'ed.
I'm a bit confused by the arguments here about 2.2.1 vs. 2.2 - Do you expect these instructions work on my phone?
Also - if I execute them - am I correct to understand that this only installs a new ROM but the kernel and the Android version will stay the same, allowing me to retain the Navigon application which came with the phone? (I hardly use it but plan to use it when I travel abroad and don't know what kind of network coverage I'll have).
Thanks!
I have uk sgs2 with xxkg2 and chainfire root with the yellow triangle on bootup...question is as follows:
There is a ROM thread kh3 in the general section and also lots of roms in the development sections referencing kh3 etc...what's what...which one do I use...is kh3 firmware or rom?
Do I have to use odin or cwm to flash the new rom/firmware?
Finally whats the difference between the two development forums and which ROMs the most popular in your opinion?

They're basically different ROMs based on the KH3 firmware
How you flash it depends on the ROM itself.

First of all, welcome to SG2! Hope you enjoying it.
1. All depends on your preference. Some say KG1 is good, some say KH3, etc etc. All depends on your preference. Just try and see which is your preference.
2. Odin is need to use computer and cwm recovery is by turning off phone first, then home button, volume up and power button all at same time.
3. Original is where dev who created them using new ways (in easy words). Most of them are less-samsung-ness. So if you install them, example CM7 (cynogen mod) or MIUI roms, you will not have samsung apps inside but you can install them if you are interested.
Hope this helps a little.
Thanks guys...Let me see if I've got this right...
1) I need to install the ROM first and then flash a kernel from chainfire..correct?
2) Also, I'm interested in MIUI, Villian, Cognition and Modaco ROMs...don't know much about them just seems a lot of people are using them/have interest in by looking at number of pages for each thread...any views please?
3) Sorry, lastly the KH3 rom in the general section is I guess original Samsung unmodified ROM??

What ROM ??? you have a ROM installed already its your original firmware .
For root flash kernel from Chainfires thread you will also get CWM .
2) Also, I'm interested in MIUI, Villian, Cognition and Modaco ROMs...don't know much about them just seems a lot of people are using them/have interest in by looking at number of pages for each thread...any views please?
Your choice Cognition and Villain probably easier to start with .
3) Sorry, lastly the KH3 rom in the general section is I guess original Samsung
KH3 rom in the general section would be the same as the rom in the stock roms post in Dev section .
One ROOT and install Clockwork Mod recovery .
Two decide on custom rom and follow its install instructions .
Nothing to stop you flashing a stock KH3 rom before above steps .

Basically, the ROM is Gingerbread. There are many updates which are very tiny tweaks. Look at Samfirmware.com
Rom developers use these latest ROM's because of the unsatiable appetite of those who want the latest (not a proper update) slightly changed update with dev tweaks

In other words, we have an OCD when it comes to version numbers and not having the latest firmware installs. Just ends up feeling like there is something we are missing out on and could benefit from whatever it is in the update.

Introduction
I've had my I9100G for more than a week now and to date there's no hint of anyone working on a custom ROM or mod for it. I guess we'll have to resign ourselves to the fact that it's not really a popular model for the regular devs and if we want to get some mods or custom roms on our phones, we have to do it ourselves. I'm currently working on customising my phone, but since I have a day job and little actual experience in Android, it's going to take some time before I can put anything out. So I'm inviting fellow I9100G users to join me in the effort to get some mods developed for the I9100G.
Kernel
Firstly, the kernel. AFAIK, there are two available kernels so far for the I9100G - KH4 (Android 2.3.4) and KI1 (Android 2.3.5). There are rooted versions for both, but as of now only the KH4 one has CWM recovery. In addition, Samsung has released the source code for the KH4, but I'm yet to find the source code for the KI1. I'l like to develop for the KI1, but without a source code and CWM recovery for the kernel, efforts are limited. So I appeal to anyone who knows where we can get the source code for KI1 or can help get CWM on the KI1, please respond!
Mods
So far I've deodexed my phone running on KI1 and managed to get the battery percentage mod on it using the UOT. That one's pretty simple. This weekend I hope to try some more mods like the Advance Power Menu, for one. Once I get that done, I'll share on xda. Appreciate suggestions on what mod we can apply that's useful, but too complicated. If anyone manage to produce mods for your I9100G, appreciate if you could share.
Hopefully once we have a few mods done for the I9100G, we can consolidate them into a custom ROM for our phone.
Let's work together to make our phone better!
I would like to join with little experience on android .
I understand our target is to make custom Rom for the g model, but do you think its we can make it possible to flash other i9100 custom roms with sgx 540 processor ?
Can we have a list of things to start with to acheive that?
Btw, i tried deodexeding and i didn't success. Any advice on this .
Thanks

Hi ss219100g,
We can't flash I9100 custom ROMs into the I9100G. I tried flashing VillainRom onto mine, but I couldn't make it work. Needs someone with more knowledge and experience, I suppose. All I can try right now is try to apply various modes I pick up from xda onto my phone.
So far I've managed to apply the Battery percentage and Advanced Power Menu mods. I'll share them later today. I'm still looking around for the next thing to try. Any suggestions?
For deodexing, I used xUltimate. The link's here:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/xeudoxus/47283-release-xultimate.html
Basically, I copied the contents of /system/app and /system/framework to \origi_frame\ and \origi_app\, run the tool, then copied the results back onto the phone. Remember to delete the *.odex files in the phone.
hi, i one of the new sgs2g user.
i would like to join and hoping if we could ever make some custom rom for this version.
but i still noob bout android, and this is my first android phone.
i was able to root my dzki1 kernel, using insecure kernel and abd command, but unable to flash cwm recovery, is there way to flash it?
and other thing, what is deodex and odex? i try google,but could not understand

It's not the one from Odia's thread, is it? I tried that one but it's rooted, but doesn't have CWM.
so meaning to say that until to-date there are no available custom ROM for the GT-I9100G devices??

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm fairly sure the only issues you have are with te modem that's installed causing degraded data network service. I can test tonight as I have a 8100g laying around atm.
Scratch that it was the 9100T i was thinking of

have you guys tried flashing any custom themes ?
the only one working for me is battery %
and is there anyone working on an optimized kernel ? MyGKernel is very good but it isn't optimized and not overclockable as far as i know!

i did and that's normal, you get a yellow triangle because you installed an unofficial (insecure) rom or kernel, don't worry about it, it doesn't affect the stability of your phone in any way, it's just for saying that you have intalled a custom feature (rom or kernel)!
I basically put in the title EH03 due to the vast majority of people using EH03 Roms now.
I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone. standard disclamer but i feel its important to add to this just incase people want to come at me saying something i said to do messed up their phone or whatever.
Basically, I'm writing this for my own use and for anyone who needs information regarding kernel flashing or what kernels are for what rom. There are two types of Roms, Touchwiz (TW) and MTD. For TW there is 3 kernels available. And 2 for MTD. The links will be at the bottom of the post, I will go into as much detail as i can without kanging the OP of the kernels. They all have great write-ups on OC/UV and all that fancy stuff. Basically I use Voltage Control (get from the market) and set it to 200-1200, set as boot and not one hot boot or any other issues, but all fassy's are different, what works for me may not work for you, so do not think that im telling you what is standard for every phone, cause theyre isnt a real answer to that.
Note: All the kernels that I will be referring to allow the installation of Custom Boot Animations via CWM. There is a great list of a bunch of them I will post link to it as well.
TW:
1) KGB (updated 1/16/12) (formally known as TKS and TKSGB) this imo, is the one i use with my current rom/kernel combo. This one comes with an app packaged in the kernel install. for more information on the app features, see the op at the bottom of the post.
2) GeeWiz. (updated 2/3/12) This one comes with a Rom/Kernel/Recovery Package. As of the new update, he separated the kernel from the rom so you can use just the kernel. This one is more of a stock kernel with some extra features. See link for the complete list of features.
3) LeanKernel (updated 1/1/12) (Rootzwiki) This was actually one of the first kernels I used. It is already OC'd to 1200 so no need to use the Voltage Control App with this kernel. Not too much more to say about this one because I didnt use it too long. Make sure you check your rom to ensure you are choosing the correct verison of the kernel. There is EH and EI. EH03 is the Verizon Fascinate GB. EI120 I believe is the Mesmorize GB (correct me if I'm wrong?) but some people have ported E120 Roms to the Fascinate, thus the need for that kernel version.
4) Stock Kernel Stock is stock, you cant do any customizing to it, no OC/UV or boot animations. It depends on what version of cwm you are using to determine which version of the kernel you need to flash in CWM : 2.+ cwm = amend 3.+ cwm = edify
**however the red recovery which is 2.5.1 takes edify.
MTD:
MTD is basically for CM7/CM9(when it gets ported to us) Team Hacksung's ICS port and MIUI. Im not going to go into detail for any of this because i never used them long enough to grasp anything about them.
1) Glitch v13.1 (updated 12/25/11) This is imo the most common MTD kernel used by the community. Features and OC/UV values can be found in the OP. They also have a test version out for ICS if you are using that Rom. Make sure when you go to this OP you choose the Fascinate version of the kernel.
2) JT's 3 button fix Kernel (JT's Twitter) This is another MTD kernel. Not much to say about this one. Just that it only works for MTD based Roms.
I put a link to Droidstyle's Guide for Rom Flashing if you guys haven't already flashed a custom rom.
I hope this gave you guys some insight.

If you do not have a custom rom you will not be able to install a custom kernel, Refer to droidstyle's guide if you have not already installed a rom. Link is in OP
Download kernel and place it on the root of your sd card (not really necessary but imo its easier to find)Installing kernel
boot phone into CWM Recovery (volume up + down + power) If you are already on a custom rom do not do this, just longpress the power button and choose reboot into recovery.
Wipe Cache and Davlik (see link in OP on Davlik cache if you do not know what this is used for)
Scroll to Install Zip from SD card. Press power buttom to select menu.
Scroll to Choose Zip from SD Card. Press Power Again.
Scroll down to your downloaded Kernel file using volume down key
Press power button on the file.
Scroll down to Yes with Volume down key.
Press power.
Allow to install.
Reboot phone.

Whoa, what? This is the first I've heard this. I've read through Droidstyle's guide, and didn't see this specifically mentioned. Or in any of the other threads I'd read, actually (there's so many).
Through all the posts I see on kernels, how kernels like KGB work with Gingerbread and EH03 based ROMs, which lead me to believe just the kernel can be customized with a stock ROM... I've never seen one until now that said you must have a custom ROM first.
So they mean, a Gingerbread/EH03 based *custom* ROM when they say that.
This would explain why I borked my phone trying to put KGB on it.
I wish I had seen this thread earlier, that would've save me a lot of headache.
It all makes sense now.
