I am thinking I should do this. Does erase my cwm? Erase my root? Or do I do it then just flash a rom again

no it will only return your current rom to the way it was when you first flashed it just delete user data/apps you keep your root, cwm, and kernels

Wherever you were at the ROM'S starting point, is where you will be again.
Also if you ever need to know if you are rooted or not, download "Root Checker" from the market. It's free and checks for BOTH Root and any traces of Busybox...

Sgs? There was a app called kernel flasher I believe that allowed you to backup kernels and flash others..... I know I can backup rom, flash kernel and if I don't like it I can just restore my backup, but the restoring takes forever. I'd rather just flash the stock kernel... Or is there a stock kernel zip floating around I missed?
Thanks
Stock kernel zip would be great. That's what preventing me from flashing a kernel right now.

Yeah I miss that program. Funny thing is I'm still stock.
On my vibrant I'd flash almost daily.
This phone seems where the vibrant peaked out of the box.
So I just have not needed to.
But you just took me back.
Give it time.

i have read multiple tweets and posts that the charge is the best on the Stock rom? true? false?
also, what is the Lastest STOCK Odin that i can get? and if i reflash this on my charge using Odin, do i loose Clockwork?
thanks gang!
ALso, in your opinions for a charge noob (not android noob though) what would you say the best roms for the following are?
Stock DEBLOATED Froyo:
GIngerbrea DEBLOATED d:
no. the filesystem change provided by the voodoo lagfix alone is enough of a reason to go to a custom kernel

I ran that way for a while before flashing the GummyCharged ROM.
First you need to flash a custom recovery. I used Clockwork.
Next you have to flash a new Kernel. I used PeanutButta Jelly Time.
Neither mod touches your ROM at all. You'll be completely stock but with a new Voodoo enabled kernel.

I don't know for sure but I would say that you'll lose Clockwork Recovery. You may have to go through the rooting steps again. Let us know how it goes.
A few weeks ago I flashed the CWM Community kernel using SGS Kernel Flasher. No problems. Now I need to return Infuse to stock. (running stock ROM, only flashed v8 Community Kernel for ext4 and CWM Red). I backed up my stock kernel using SGS Kernel Flasher right before I flashed the v8 Community Kernel. So my question: Can I simply disable voodoo lagfix (via Red CWM), reboot to allow RFS conversion, then reflash the stock kernel (using SGS Kernel Flasher) over the v8 Community Kernel? Or will I create a problem flashing the stock kernel over the v8 Community Kernel? Will this remove the RED CWM Recovery? Thx.
i did that the other day with my wifes infuse, just disable lagfix, reboot you will here the robot lady again lol... go to SGS and reflash back to stock!
Thanks for the confirmation. Did you manually delete the /sdcard/Voodoo folder after reflashing stock kernel?

Nope.. but i dont think it will hurt if done..
I have a problem i am running the rom Bionix 2 - The Legacy Continues - RC1, i like it and everything but when ever i try to flash a kernerl from CM or Trinity my phone either doesent boot at all or if it does the is no haptic feedback, no internet and nothing is working plus the phone is super slow. Ive tried the install a different like CM7 but i get a message that say that installation aborted, Ive also tried Eaglesblood the rom flashes but when i flash the kernel to that rom it still doesent work. Someone please me i wan to overclock my phone. Im on 2.3.3 rooted and i have the newest CWM i think is 5.0.2.0 or something like that the blue one, IDK if that has anything to do with it
You could try a new ROM first then the kernel. When I flash I wipe data, cache, dalvik the format /system then install ROM then fix permissions then restart. When I add the kernel I want I wipe cache and dalvik then flash the kernel then fix permissions and restart. Some of these steps are extra but I have only had 1 problem before and that was because I didn't wipe dalvik before my kernel.
Also, is bionix based off of cm7? Even if it is some kernels might not work, they could have modified it enough that it makes cm7 kernels not work.

I already everything that you explain the only thing that sounds unfamiliar is the "fix permissions" i dont know what that is. I dont know much about the rom here is a link to it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1080045 I tried flashing other rom but it doesent let me it say s instillation aborted when i try CM7 or anything else the only rom that i can install is bionix or eagles blood im new at this. I see kernels that allow you to oc to 1.5 an even some that let you get to 1.56 and i want my phone to be able to run them
Fix permissions is in rom manager (app for the phone) and cwm. Did you flash using nvflash or rom manager?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I flash everything from CWM because some of these kernels cause my phone to boot loop. I fixed the permissions but still no luck
I flashed with NV Flasher

Anyone using this build? How is it compared to 5.0? is it nessisary to flash ep4d before flashing this in cwm?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
There is a 5.2 out why not go to it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1293429
You must already be on EP4P to flash this
-You must have imoseyon 4.0 kernel installed or it won't boot
-You must wipe data/cache if coming from another EP4P rom
-You cannot go from ep3h to ep4p with this cwr Pkg without flashing imoseyon 4.0
-You must ensure that system is mounted before you flash this cwr Pkg. In cwr go to mounts and storage/ make sure system is mounted

Lol duh sorry. I was looking at the 5.0rc2. I had the 5.1 test downloaded but havent seen anything else.
I'm assuming, it sux our no one knows about it?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
As far as I know the test rom doesn't have any tweaks done to it so I would guess the performance would be the same as the OTA. I have downloaded the test but haven't gone back to stock to get the ota so I haven't tried it for myself.

I am on 5.0 RC2 and It is very stable and fast for me. I guess I will update if he releases 5.1 or higher, but not for a while.
