Samsung Continuum Questions

Hey guys, I have a few questions that I either couldn't figure out after researching for hours (seriously) or I just need some clarification on. I apologize if these questions have already been adressed. Also, I'm new to android so try to keep it simple for me.
1. What is a kernel? Can I flash multiple kernels to the same rom? Can I flash a kernel via clockwork recovery?
2. Ive been having problems with clockwork recovery. I got it installed (meaning I can get to the clockwork recovery menu after flashing the .tar file via odin and applying the update.zip) but if I select any of the items from the clockwork recovery menu the screen immediately goes blank and I have to perform a battery pull to boot the phone up again.
3. Clockwork recovery doesnt stick. When I apply the update.zip (which contains clockwork recovery mod) from the regular recovery menu I get a "e:verification whole-file error" message thingy unless I flash the .tar file via odin every single time before hand in which case I do get to the clockwork recovery menu, but the problem from the question above occurs.
4. How to flash the latest clockwork recovery + any needed kernel + any bug fixes + latest version of needed files? Plz post a link to a place where I can download the appropriate files. I ask this even though its been asked before because im wondering if the files I used are outdated and thats why I had the problems mentioned above.
5. Is there anyway I can restore my phone back to the way i first bought it (meaning no root, no update, etc.)
Thanks in advance!

The only one I can answer out of those is #5 (I suck at the coding part lol, I'll let someone more knowledgable answer those)
Go to settings -> Privacy -> Factory Data Reset.
Pretty sure that's what you're looking for

You're having weird problems. My clockwork doesn't stock either but I don't think anybody's does with the continuum. I have a clean DL17 ROM, the peanutbutta jelly time kernel and I haven't had any problems
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA App

Ill try again later on today and ill see what happens. Maybe it was just a one time glitch. Are you supposed to select the items from the clockwork recovery menu using the camera button or the menu button?
On a separate note, about the clockwork recovery sticking, i heard about a kernel that made it stick. True or false? And if I install a kernel on my phone now, and then flash the DL17 rom, do the effects of the kernel now apply to the DL17 rom as well? does the clockwork recovery mod that i flashed before also apply to the DL17 rom as well, or do i have to reinstall clockwork recovery? what bugs does the DL17 rom have? where are the fixes?

Oh and whats the difference between the following kernels? and can they all be flashed using clockwork recovery? and which kernel do you use? and what bugs to each of the kernels have?

Can someone please post a link of this thread in the continuum android development section or point this thread to a dev because I don't have permission and I really badly want these questions answered! Thanks!

I'll try and answer some of your questions as soon as I get to a computer.

EDIT:
1. I'm not a dev, but here is what I understand about kernels. A kernel is part of android that contains the "drivers". You can use different kernels with the same ROM, but if you're asking if you can use 2 kernels at the same time with 1 ROM, then no, you can't. Kernels are usually flashed with clockwork, but we continuum users also use ODIN because of the difficulties with CWM not wanting to work on some phones.
2. Are uoi using the menu button to select in CWM? If you are, try clicking the lock button instead.
3. I can't help you there, sorry. :-/ My CWM always worked...
4.I'll see if I can't find a guide or 2. I'll make another video tut if needed.
5. There is a stock ODIN file that I helped make floating around here somewhere. The only thing is, the ODIN is rooted because it was needed to create the files.
I'll answer more questions later

Ok thanks a lot that helped clarify a few things. A video tutorial or a written tutorial would be great and if u could answer my other questions that would be fantastic! Thanks

AGH!!!! SO MANY QUESTIONS IN 1 POST >.<
ok.... Let's try and answer these *sigh*
1. If you are using the original CWM then, select is using the lock button. If you are using the new CWM the imnuts put out a few days ago, then selecting is the camera button. The latest CWM available, is the first link in the next quote.
2. ugh... I can't really comment on that, I've never had problems with CWM...
3. Yes, they do apply to the DL17 ROM.
4.CWM sticks as long as you flashed all the files correctly.
5. Which DL17 ROM? Adr's SC, or the debloated?
6. again, which one?

1. This is from what I know, just CWM. There isn't a "kernel" so to speak.
2.This is an epic kernal that I recommended trying
3. I would also recommend trying out this kernal. I'm not entirely sure what the differences between 2, and 3 are though...

1. From wikipedia:
"In computing, the kernel is the central component of most computer operating systems; it is a bridge between applications and the actual data processing done at the hardware level. The kernel's responsibilities include managing the system's resources (the communication between hardware and software components). Usually as a basic component of an operating system, a kernel can provide the lowest-level abstraction layer for the resources (especially processors and I/O devices) that application software must control to perform its function. It typically makes these facilities available to application processes through inter-process communication mechanisms and system calls.
Operating system tasks are done differently by different kernels, depending on their design and implementation. While monolithic kernels execute all the operating system code in the same address space to increase the performance of the system, microkernels run most of the operating system services in user space as servers, aiming to improve maintainability and modularity of the operating system. A range of possibilities exists between these two extremes."
You can only run one kernel at a time.
2. dfggd's instruction vid might help: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USHpl0s7qhk
3. CWM does not stick (yet)
4. You'll have to do your own research on this one. Personal taste comes in to play and it is ever-changing.
5. I know there's a DJ20 dump around here somewhere....

hahahaha im sorry but i have a lot of questions lol. thanks for the help. if u can answer the other questions thatd be great, thanks. and in response to your answers:
TO DFGGED:
1. i need plain english here. whats the difference between the two clockworks? does it really matter which one i flash? if not, then i plan on using the original clockwork recovery mod so that i can flash a different kernel.
2. maybe its becuz i used the menu button to select an item so it freaked out. ill try it again as soon as i can find somebodys windows computer i can borrow to flash odin
3. and if i flash a kernel its permanent? i cant remove the kernel or flash a different kernel and overwrite it or something?
4. i definitely flashed all the files correctly and it didnt stick for me. maybe we just have different definitions of sticking. i have to flash odin every single time prior to going in to clockwork recovery. do u not have to do the same? i heard that flashing a custom kernel made it stick though so maybe thats it...
5. wait...i thought Adr's DL17 rom was the only one out for the samsung continuum. and that is the debloated/debinged/etc. isn't it?
6. if there are different roms and im just clueless, then can u post the link for both of the actual rom and fixes?
TO DFGGED(PART 2):
1. but doesnt it say flash the recovery kernel via odin? is that not a kernel?
2. what does this kernel do?
3. again, what does this kernel do?
TO WEUDEL:
1. kind of understood that lol but at least i get the basic idea
2. yup that helps to clarify a bit, thanks
3. i heard that custom kernels DOES make it stick. true or false?
4. look at my questions to dfgged above (in this post) and see if u can explain the differences to me in the kernels and original clockwork recover vs. imnuts clockwork recovery (and if imnuts clockwork recovery's recovery kernel is actually a kernel) and if there are indeed two different roms and the difference between them. and a link to a place where i can download the latest files for the fixes and actual rom. i would really appreciate it!
5. yup found it. thanks

oh and how do you flash a kernel via clockwork?
thanks so much for ur patience!!!! i owe all of u guys lol

You go to install zip file then install from sd card
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA Premium App

Well, since you are now over the 10 post threshold, I would suggest that you ask the specifics of these kernels within the kernel threads. That or try them all out and go with the one you like. This is a small community and the more testing everyone can do the better off we will all be.

I would but I dont have a windows computer so testing is pretty much impossible for me so...yeah anything anybody knows about the questions I just asked would be extremely helpful. Thanks again

[Q] Stuck on Revolutionary recovery screen after flashing kernel

Yesterday I completed my first root (using this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1228566 ). Today I downloaded HDMwIn HDMI mirroring app which told me I needed the kernel manager lite. I Dowloaded and flashed I think it was Tiamat_evo kernel. After that it automatically restarted. htc white welcome screen comes on, goes away for 5 secs, white welcome screen comes back, goes away again then the revolutionary recovery screen comes on. I tried running the zip file from when I rooted it again but after rebooting again it does the same thing, over and over and over and over. I'm able to access the sd card via usb mount on the computer and I'm thinking there could a file I could put on there to make this right, maybe? I'm just not sure what file that would be if there is one. Like I said...pretty new to this stuff, so any help will be appreciated.

Go to recovery if you have amon ra its called USB -MS toggle enable it and then plug your phone into your pc transfer the kernel over to you phone disable ms toggle then wipe dalvik cache and cache flash the kernel reboot and see if it works. In clockworkmod its under mounts and storage and enable USB mass storage and then follow the steps i posted

nope, no roms yet...should I have done that? Im downloading that kernal now on the pc, what do i do with the file after that. Not sure what you mean by clockwork mod..I followed the rooting process that i linked in the OP.

you don't need to flash a rom. After you download it go to recovery then mounts and storage and then enable usb mass storage then plug your phone into your pc and put the kernel on the root of your sdcard(not in any folders) . Tell me when you get this far

[Q] smoothness and responsiveness

Hi, i have question about this nice phone. I had it for about a week now and i like it but only one annoying thing is that sometimes it lags. I'm rooted, using ram manager, caching everything and i raised heap size to 32 but still it can be better. Anyone have any advice apart from ROM changing? I'm too scared to do it because i don't have spare money for repair or new phone. Thanks. I'm running stock 2.2

[GUIDE]How to install CyanogenMod based ROMs

Hello there!
You are probably wondering how to install CyanogenMod based ROM on this phone. Well it's easy.
In this guide we will cover how can you install CM over stock ROM and how to upgrade/switch ROMs. So let's get started.
--------------------------------
FLASHING FROM STOCK
1) Make sure your phone is rooted
2) Download CWM Recovery (easiest install is by ROM Manager):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.rommanager
3) Choose your ROM and download it to your SD card.
You can choose either Oliver's CM ROM(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2176244)
or Maclaw's CM ROM (http://maclaw.pl)
4) Download gapps to your SD card (Google applications like Play Store, Play Services and such): http://goo.im/gapps
5) Reboot to recovery
6) Choose Wipe data/factory reset
7) After wiping go to Advanced and select Wipe Dalvik
8) After wiping (still in Advanced menu) select format /system
9) After formating choose back (or return) to go back to main menu
10) Select install zip from SD card and when next menu appears press Choose from internal SD card (or if it is on external SD press choose zip from external SD).
11) Locate where did you put your ROM and click on it.
12) After successful install refer to point number 10)
11) Locate where did you put your gapps and click on it.
12) After successful installation choose wipe data/factory reset
13) After wipe choose advanced then click on wipe dalvik
14) Go back to main menu and press reboot
If you followed all the steps you should have a working CyanogenMod ROM on your phone.
NOTE: First boot takes time.
--------------------------------
--------------------------------
Upgrading / switching CM ROMs (only if you already have CM installed)
1) Download your desired ROM and put it on your SD
2) Reboot to recovery
3) Choose Wipe Cache
4) After wipe go to Advanced and choose wipe dalvik
5) Go back to main menu and select install zip from SD card
6) Select Choose zip from internal sd (or if it is on external SD press choose zip from external SD)
7) Click on the desired ROM zip file.
8) After successful install refer to the point 3) and 4) of this part of the guide (Section Upgrading / switching)
10) Go back to main menu and press reboot
If you followed all the steps correctly you should have a upgraded ROM. Or new ROM if switching developers.
Note: First boot takes time. Its because of regeneration of all files.
--------------------------------
There you go. If you have any ideas / recommendations / post them below
IF YOU BRICK YOUR DEVICE I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE. THINGS IN THIS GUIDE ARE TESTED AND PROVED WORKING!

Or generally, can I use roms, which are for I8190 also to I8190N ? Is it for all S3 Mini versions ?

How to start fresh after trying lot of roms?

I tried so many roms and kernels and i have found my best pair which are psx rom v6 and franco kernel r183. But i think my internal storage is a mess.
I know the procedure to start clean but i just want to make sure before i **** things up.
I want to wipe the internal storage in my phone, is this the correct way?
1. Boot into recovery.
2. Wipe everything including internal storage.
3. In twrp there is an option to wipe usb otg, is it needed?
4. Sideload or push rom zip, gapps, kernel and superSU 1.65 zip files.
5. Reboot again in recovery and start the procedure.
Please assist me. Thanks.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4

Yep, looks like everything is right. One thing though: you don't need to flash the supersu zip if the ROM is already rooted. (And the majority of custom ROMs are rooted)

Yep, looks like everything is right. One thing though: you don't need to flash the supersu zip if the ROM is already rooted. (And the majority of custom ROMs are rooted)

Yes it stays rooted if you dont flash other custom kernel, but if you do, sometimes it breaks root and even twrp asking you to swipe to install root. At least it happened when i flash matr1x or even franco.

Agree with your first post, should be no problem. Although in TWRP there is a big button that said Format DATA, that does a complete wipe including the internal storage, so you don't have to manually select each partition.
Also give Neo kernel a try.

I'll try neo first before doing this clean fresh system, but i dont think there is any other kernel that will make me jump ship. Performance and battery life is really balanced with franco's r183 nightly now.

I think im sticking with franco, because neo gave me antutu result 20917 while franco gave me 21450.
Numbers not important but in opengl 2.0 test in antutu, neo gave me lower fps and i can see choppines while franco's is smooth. For real world usage, i feel tapatalk app is stuttering when swiping right to open the left bar while it's really smooth in franco. Thanks though.
