Well if you are on stable baseband like dxlc-f1these procedure would probably work! Dxma has encountered a lot of problems when flashing a custom rom!

It is a common process to flash a custom ROM.Every Custom ROM needs this common process to be flashed.....And so I think it is not a "SAFE PROCESS" it is a "COMMON PROCESS"....So rename your thread.....

I'm coming from Galaxy S2, and flashing the rom is very easy via Odin. I want to flash the Task650's KME V5 rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1227800).
Is it possible to flash that rom via odin? Please let me know. Many thanks in advance!
No. You have to flash the ROMs from cwm recovery. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171089
Get FilesForDummies.zip, flash recovery-cwm_4.0.0.4-sam-tab-10.1.tar.md5 via Odin, put the ROM .zip on your tab, flash the ROM you like from cwm.
how can i root the stock rom then? I want to freeze some useless things

It is not recommended to flash any 3rd party ROM on the Galaxy Tab 10. There are currently no stable or reliable ROMs that can match the stock ROM.

When ure rooted, u have different roms to go with (task650, overcome, etc...), u'll have a blast for sure
I have a KF1 firmware which is stock. Now i want to install custom ROM using ROM Manager on MY SGS2. But then I want to use KJ3 custom ROM. Is it possible? Because when I try installing it using CWM on recovery mode and ROM Manager, it is simply not working.
I hope someone could me out here.
Thanks
Is your phone rooted? If not you may need to do a bit of research on how to flash custom kernels and how to use Odin. Its not hard to do, but it very easy to stuff the phone if not done properly.
I have rooted my phone using custom kernel. I use CF-root.
But my Firmware is still kF1. I am now trying to update it to 3.3.5 using odin.
how were you trying to flash the custom rom? Just need to see if your missing a step
Guys, thanks...
I have read bunch of new ideas here.
Currently I am using stock KI3 and want to use the Kitchen Room Ki3 which is Deodexed Rom to install some good themes.
I am right on these?
Odexed = stock rom
deodexed = custom rom?
Not exactly. We have some custom odexed ROMs too ;-) But, you will never see stock deodexed ROM for sure.

If you already rooted the phone then you can install ROM Manager which can be used to flash the latest CWM recovery image.

you are providing wrong information,
ROM manager does not work with some kernels and could potentially result in a software malfunction,
@op and everyone else having the same question:
please just read the original instructions from the kernel developer to ensure success of the installation
When I install any custom ROM, my phone will boot normally and I will then be able to go through the setup. However, when I shutdown the phone, it will not reboot and I will be stuck on the Samsung logo. Then I have to reinstall the ROM.
Please Help and Thank you.
Did you flash the kernel for your device afterr flashing the rom?

Also, after flashing a custom ROM and getting stuck in the bootlogo, sometimes you need to flash the loki-fix (search for it) to fix this. Then the ROM works.
If ever in an inescapable bootloop and there's no custom recovery, then you'll need to download your stock firmware and stock kernel and use Odin to flash the firmware first (in download mode), then the kernel second (also in download mode, after a reboot), and then once you're up and running you can use Motochopper to root the phone and then another tool to flash recovery (e.g. Canadiani337m_3way_tool).
Happened again

Hey again! After I reflashed the Kernel Fix for my model. It seemed to be good, however it started doing it again! and it happens with every rom. Im sure I have the right kernel fix...
I have a similar issue, with any custom rom I can't load into the phone the first time, set up my phone etc. But if I reboot I'm stuck at the samsung logo. I've tried this most recently with cyangenmod 10.2, ikop, and kangabean and had the same issue. This is my first android phone and my first time trying this so I wasn't sure if I was doing everything correctly. When I followed the instructions for CM, it didn't say that I needed to reflash the kernal. Is there a specific kernal or can I use the stock? Also should I flash the kernal after I've installed rom and gapps?
I suppose if that doesn't work that I'll try the loki-fix.

Hi installing A kernel is easy here are the steps
1. Make a backup because if anything goes wrong you can restore ur setting
If you want to make a back up go to Backup and restore click backup ,back up everything: System,Data,Cache,etc
make sure you backup ur stuff to ur micro sd card
2. Make sure the kernel is compatible for your device and the rom
3 Flash the kernel an enjoy
4 By the way can you tell me the kernel name and link for the ROM and the kernel so i can check if its compatible with ur device/Rom
If i helped you please press the thanks button
If u have any problem contact me
there are many kernels for s4 based on 4.2 and 4.3
perseus, adam and many more
do remember to create a backup using recovery
philz recovery is best
then download the zip of any kernel (do remember to check its compatibility with ur OS version i.e jb or kk)
any flash it using recovery

I thought that for the I9500 almost no custom kernels are being maintained anymore. Better to stick with the one that comes with the rom.
