hello guys, I'm trying to flash slim kernel. This is the link im using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2488233, It seems like I'm flashing the right version, when I flash with twrp it finishes in less than a second. And when it reboots the screen is just black with the keys lighting up. Any solutions guys? Currently on c rom
I believe you meant Lean Kernel and you are using official C-RoM v7.1.
In this case, you must use version 3.1 of Lean Kernel. Newer versions are not compatible witb this rom.
Awesome thanks man I'll give it a try, so would I flash the c Rom again then the kernel?
Just the kernel

Stock with Franco:
Will it work? Will it give the same benefits as CM 10.1?
Will OTA work? If I sideload OTA will I have to reflash kernel?
CM 10.1:
If I flash new ROM/update ROM, will kernel stay?
Thanks,
Yes the kernel will work. The kernel and rom in CM10.1 is obviously different to stock and francos so im not sure how they compare - try both yourself ?
Im not sure about OTA. I would just flash a AOSP stock ROM every time there is an update just in case if you want to stay on stock.
If you flash a new ROM no the kernel will not stay you have to flash the kernel again as CM10.1 (like most ROMs) comes with its own kernel that will overwrite your current one.
I've been wanting to ask this about faux's kernel since I'm having the (very common) msm_hsic_host wakelock issue. Since we're on the subject: does anyone have a suggestion for the most stable, closest to stock, AOSP ROM?
Hi,
Quick question I am still having trouble wrapping my head around the concept about kernels. I am planning to root my nexus 4 and flash a custom rom (purity rom) but am i required to also flash a custom kernel? Or am I suppose to leave the kernel as is?
Thanks!

Depends upon your requirement .
As an example i use Fast USB charge a lot and is not available in any custom rom .
I also use Headphone volume boost which is yet again a kernel level change.
I would suggest you to use a custom kernel since it also gives better battery than stock .
If you are happy without it then forget about kernels . And in case u plan on flashing one make a CWM backup just in case.,
You could if you want to since you're already flashing custom roms. However, most custom rom come with custom kernel, so when you flash a custom rom it will replace your kernel with it's own. You can manually flash back your stock kernel if you want, using fastboot, but there is a flashable package as well in the Dev section.
Just know that due to codes and drivers, different kernels work with different roms. If you flash a 4.3 kernel to a 4.4 rom, it might lack certain necessary driver, such as PRIMA, so your wifi will no longer work. (You can fix this by flashing dePRIMAtor). CyanogenMod use Code Aurora Forum drivers, so if you use a kernel that doesn't support CAF, the screen colors will be messed up (you can lash a colorfix package which replace it with the non-CAF liboverlay.so).
A lot of people get wrapped too far up into flashing kernel and thinking it determine everything (performance + battery life) in their phone. As much of a heavy flasher that I am, I am willing to bet that you generally get the best battery life and stability just running stock. I did my own trial for this, with stock rom and kernel, the phone staying cooler and screen on time was longer. This is just my personal experience, it varies for each person.
But I mainly use custom kernel for features. Such as kernels that incorporate Faux color and sound, this allows changing their settings for much a better screen color and making the speaker louder. I also use the sweep2wake/sleep feature to turn on and off the screen.
If you intend to use custom kernels, I recommend using TricksterMod, it's the best app for modifying kernel settings.
Also just to mention this ahead of time, it's against XDA rules to make threads about what is the best rom/kernels.
Hi,
I'm currently on stock 5.0 ROM (Simple ROM) but I prefer pure Android UI. I've got two questions:
Is there any fully-working and stable 5.0 ROM?
I'm on KK bootloader and TWRP 2.8.5.1 w/ Bump. Do I have to do anything if I want to flash non-LG 5.0 ROM?
No, you just have to find a Rom and install it through TWRP by factory reseting and installing zip + Gapps.
There are many different roms for the G2, if you like stock android UI with some little improvements, you have the well-known CM12.
If you prefer having a fast and smooth phone you might want to look forward on liquidsmooth.
If you're an addict of options and customization then the BlissPop rom is for you.
And if people likes the LG's stock interface they have simple rom (who can be coupled to GravityBox in order to be enhanced... ).
All those roms are still in devellopement, but honestly they have really good performance and the updates are now just some little things/bug fixes.
You first should look on Gravity Box + xposed who just realeased a LP version, might work on simple rom and add many things.
If you still don't like the improved stock experience you have all those other roms who have their specificies.
I'm currently running BlissPop and have to say that it's really well-made, but D802 has some problems with some builds causing bootloops, so not the perfect one indeed.
Just watch other threads and fine something that you'll like, feel free to ask questions...
So you say I don't have to flash JB bootloader, right? Just flash ROM using BUMPed TWRP and that's it?

No, no, NO! With some ROMs you NEED the JB bootloader, unless stated otherwise!
I made the same mistake and ended up with vertical black lines on the screen due to overheating upon hanging boot. So, even thought the ROM says it includes a bump-ed kernel, I would be really careful with KK bootloaders.

Actually for this simple/Grola ROM you need to be on bumped recovery and KK boot loader BEFORE flashing the ROM. You can flash back and forth between cloudy 2.2 and simple ROM, but aosp Roms in general require jb bootloader
Hi guys. I apologize if there is already a thread similar to this one.I tried to do a search but I keep getting blank results.
I hope someone can help me.
I have a Samsung S4 I9500 Exynos with Stock 4.2.2 rom.My question are-
Can I flash a custom 6.0.1 rom directly over the 4.2.2 or will I have problems with the bootloader and kernel (modem/radio)?
I want to flash either GearCM or RR.I already have TWRP 3.2 I think and am rooted.
Or would I need to flash to Custom 5.1.1 rom first to prevent any problems?
If I need to flash 5.1.1 can someone please recommend a rom thats customizable like RR but still very stable for everyday use with minimal bugs and that includes the latest bootloader and kernel (modem\radio)?
If I like the 5.1.1 rom that you guys recommend I'll rather use it, but I like 6.0.1 UI more.
Please I will appreciate any help you guys can give me.
Thank you
You'll probably have to update the bootloader and modem before flashing a custom 5.0 or 6.0 ROM.
Ok thanks @audit much appreciated.You don't maybe know who has the latest stuff?Will it be @ALBERTO's roms?
The easiest and safest way to update the bootloader and modem world be top flash the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com with Odin. Once updated, you can flash twrp, and a custom ROM for your phone.
OS rom

Tell me how everything goes with your Galaxy. I too have a GT-i9500 which I flash to RR it installed okay but had bugs & used up battery life quickly. So I tried to flash to my backup, which it did but it didnt like? So right now I had flash to a stock 5.0.1 rom from Sammoble to save the device. Everything is good now. I think support for this model is not good being its an international model? cheers
Thank you so much for that info @hiitsrudd.I am still searching for a rom on sammobile I could only find the latest kernel but its locked for premium users.Could you maybe send me a link for that stock rom PLEASE.Then I'll upgrade to 5.0.1 before flashing the custom one.Which RR did you flash 6.0.1 or 7.1.2?Ill gladly post how my flash went.

I don't have info for that RR rom off hand I may may have deleted? Anyway you can sign in to SamMobile as a basic user and download the Taiwan version (I9500ZSSHQD1) its free. I've seen here as well:http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9500
cheers mate:good:
Hi @hiitsrudd thank you for that link you gave me you really are an angel from above.I found a rom in there for my country aswell thank you so much.It seems I was looking on the wrong page.Those stock roms are big 1.5gb im gonna have a hard time downloading.
@hiitsrudd have you tried this rom
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-orig-develop/5-0-cyanogenmod-12-beta-t2944968
Its in the original section and seems to have most of the bugs ironed out.Im really leaning towards downloading it and see if it works.Thanks so much for your help once again.

How's that Cyanogen mod going for ya?
Hi @hiitsrudd.Apologies for being so quite.I was exremely busy the past few weeks.Ok so i finally got some time to download that rom I mentioned to you.
I want to flash it now but I'm a bit worried.
1.When the dev posted a modem and he says flash through CWM, can I also flash it via TWRP?
2.Do I flash the modem before flashing the android rom?
3.Can I flash another updated modem instead of the one the dev used?For example there is newer modems available in the GearCM 5.1.1 can I flash that one instead?

@Relay85 not sure what you mean about flashing modem? I'm under the impression that a modem would be flashed with whichever ROM you choose? I've been busy with a kindle also, let me check into this later.
Anyway I believe you have TWRP installed so you should be good to go to flash any ROM of your choice, I would flash Magisk & the Gapps for you device as well. You should be okay, I'm assuming you downloaded the latest version of this ROM, because the Developer usually does updates. happy flashing:good: I pray for rain in your region too!
I have not seen a custom ROM include a modem. The modem is usually part of the stock ROM included with downloads from sammobile.com or samsung-updates.
If you want to flash a custom ROM, I suggest flashing the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com with Odin. This will ensure that the phone is running the latest stock bootloader and modem.
I do not recommend flashing a modem unless something is not working after flashing the custom ROM and it has been stated that flashing the custom modem will not cause any future issues with other ROMs.
Yep the GT-9500 has a LTE capable factory modem which should run in the custom ROM.
Hi guys ( @hiitsrudd and @audit13 ) thanks for both your replies.Really appreciate the help you gave me.
@hiitsrudd So I never flashed the custom rom I mentioned in my previous post because I read someone complaining about battery draining problems.
I flashed this custom rom:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-develop/ressurrection-remix-m-t3404556
and I have to say its amazing.Its fast,stable, battery life is about the same as stock android but performance is better in my opinion.I have not yet experienced any of the bugs they mentioned on the thread so I guess they fixed everything.But I have to say I'm thoroughly impressed with this rom. I flashed the 5.7.4 version with gapps pico and everything works great.Im now looking for a kernel to flash just to see if I can get a bit more battery life but I'm not in a hurry cause the rom runs great as is.
I can highly recommend this rom if you are looking for something different than stock.Its really an awesome custom rom.The dev really did an amazing job with this one.I really like the startup logo aswell.Wish I had this rom on my other S4 I9505.I really miss that phone.
Anyway thanks for all your help @hiitsrudd.I really hope you give this one a shot.And I hope to speak to you again in the future.
Cheers for now.All the best to both you guys.
This thread is now closed as my questions were answered and solved.
Thanks XDA once again you made my life a bit more enjoyable.You guys help so many people, this is an AMAZING forum.

@Relay85 good to hear back from you Yes I will give this rom a go:good:
Peace be with you.
Hey guys, hope you all are fine. I have recently rooted my f800l korean with dirty santa method. Now i want to try some custom rom on this, but no rom is booting up, even super rom is officialy listed on their website for f800 but does't boots up. alwasy stucks on lg logo. Some body tell me which step am i missing?
Sorry for my bad english.
as far as i know, theres no officially custom rom that espexially made fot F800L. but dont worry, you can flash 'SOME' VS955 rom in F800L
heres the lost that alreasybtesred by mw, and yes its working
1. VS955 extreme syndicate v1 <-- stock nougat based, no signal, wifi working
2. VS955 Lineage 15 <-- recomended by me, AOSP based
3. VS955 Weta rom <-- stock nougat based
and dont forget to flash custom kernel after flashing custom rom.
im using F800K M2000 (latest version)
AOSP based ROM works out of the box, stock-based doesn't because they're all using different device's stock ROM as a base. Stock-based custom ROM on this device for the most part is just stock + debloated + misc. mods and snakeoil. You can get most of them working by (re)flashing modem after you flashed the ROM, but ultimately its still the same thing. Its better just to root the latest Nougat/Oreo stock ROM for the device, install mk2000 kernel, then debloat it yourself. The korean text in dialer, as well as Korean ROM quirks (always roaming, missing menu options) can be dealt with using a build.prop edit.

Way to disparage the work done by the few devs left here who provide their time and effort for free.

There's a big difference between actual development (kernel work, device tree for AOSP porting) and chucking whatever popular snakeoil is out there and repackaging it. There's a reason why Original Android Development got split into a separate category back in the days, so repacks 2468295 can be kept in its own containment forum. XDA hasn't changed much since the Blue Angel/Himalaya days in that regard.

i agree with you. lets take an example lesson in my experience while im using lineage, yes the rom is much lighter and faster than stock, but the camera result is not as good as when im using stock rom. the result from camera is very crappy (compared with while im using stock rom). so once again, im very agree the best rom for any device is stock rom+ custom kernel of our choice and of course debloat as our choice as well. this is the reason why im choosing extreme syndicate v1 rom because it just lite as AOSP rom because its extremely debloated and my camera working perfectly, the the DAC work as well.
does lineage-15.1-20181214-X86CPU-vs995.zip work on F800L Bro ......im using lineage-14.1-20180214-UNOFFICIAL-vs995.zip now on F800L
Anybody try to install LOS 17.1 and have the camera works? The camera work fine when 15.1 LOS installed. But soon after I dirty install the 17.1 its stopped working.
I'm haven't install any gapps or any custom kernel. Or should I?
