[Q] Flashing a new gingerbread rom over previous gingerbread. - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

So I am on the original KF1 Rom right now(I know, I am falling behind). I want to flash the new DevilBread rom. Here is my question: I will need to Odin back to Froyo in order to use CWM to install DevilBread. Will this install the Froyo bootloaders again, or am I OK to just flash DevilBread right after without doing anything?
Thanks!

I think you would be good to go straight away unless you use a completely stock froyo rom but with something like deodexed kd1 I think you would be good

Cool. Exactly the Rom that I flashed to in order to get CWM. It appears to be working perfectly fine so far.

if you are going to use kd1, use dr honks, not whitehawks. it has a faulty system partition

i dont think you'd have to ODIN. i was on Gingerclone V2 (KD1) and flashed Clean Fusion V3. i Just wiped data and cache then installed. i got a soft brick how ever but was able to get into recovery with the 3 button combo. this time i checked my mounts and re-wiped, then installed and checked my mounts to make sure system was still on /unmount.. it wasnt so i just changed it to unmount /system. then rebooted and it booted up fine.
So basically i think i couldve prevented my softbrick if i checked my mounts the first time. Maybe going KD1 to KG2 requires mount checks ? Idk but i know you can flash from KD1 i just did it just check your mounts to be safe
Ok thanks ayoteddy im going to try it right now I'll let you know how it goes in about ten mins

Yes I'm using your rom so far my two favorite roms with the least bugs or no freeze ups are touchmiuiwiz and this one I haven't used it but just today but so far so good for some reason all the roms that I have used are way better than stock but have occasional freezes and I have to pull the battery but your roms smooth as of right now hope it stays that way and once again I appreciate yours and ayoteddys work and your help........ I know I tried to avoid the soft brick and using odin that's why I asked first but I flashed it succesfully first time ayoteddy gave me the hads up for checing the mounts then I removed a couple apps and fixed it to my taste and its great keep it up iill be waiting for the update

T959VUKJ6 Official update

Starting November 15...
http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-1810
Is this the same KJ6 as leak used in Development section? So WiFi stays not on par as on KD1?
I hope not. At least they are releasing something official. Maybe in 89 days we can get source.

I guess before running official update with kies you have to disable/uninstall lagfix at minimum... This will convert file system back to rfs.
I went ahead and let mini kies do its thing.... yes, I odined the kj1 kernel right on top for the voodoo and it works.
sorry for the dumb question, but after upgrading to gb will super one click work to root, and can we just use odin to flash one of the existing custom gb roms without needing to root. im assuming this had the correct gb bootloaders we need. thanks for the help.

Official kies will take care about bootloader... regarding super one click - newest version has claims to be able to root Samsung gb.
or you can apply pre-rooted kernel as champ1919 did.

there wont be a 2.3.7 update. Only 1 device received 2.3.7 officially and that was the NS4G and that was to fix a WiMax issue.

After following suggestion in GPS thread it works pretty good. I did not tested that much yet, but so far I can tell that it locks on 7+ satellites quicker than is KD1.

How to install CWM on stock kj6?

Does anyone know how to install CWM on stock kj6? I don't want to use the custom kernel. Tried copying the recovery and update.zip but no go. Getting the signature error. Not sure what to try next.

Don't think you can have clockwork mod without a modded kernel on gingerbread.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Krylons method was for froyo. Your gonna have to go with the modded kernel to get cwm.

It's not kj6.
Also, my last attempt to use one of these kernels wasn't very successful. Had a couple of little glitches here and there and it drove me nuts.
Now the phone works perfectly on a rooted stock kj6 with junk removed, so I don't feel like risking it, especially not having CWM to backup the stock config.
+1
I am also on stock Gingerbread, rooted, and happy with it. I'd like to install CWM *before* I start mucking about with my ROMs. ROM Manager claims to support it, but it didn't list my phone in its detected devices and then I saw here that one shouldn't use it anyway so I uninstalled it.
So what's the easiest/noobiest way to install CWM on my T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4g 2.3.6 rooted?
Heindall.... With the the kj6 kernel in the development forum.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
How about you develop a new kernel? All we got is drhonks kj1 and bhundven kj6, both customs... Wait... How you plan to get cwm if you dont "custom" a kernel? Interesting, huh?
You don't need cwm to have an easy way of fixing roms if anything goes wrong, theres always odin and heimdall.

Man you're an arrogant dude. People ask for some help and you tell them to dev a new kernel! Put you're money where your mouth is.
As for the OP I think you get the idea. It's either custom or no go.

ok guys little help please, been away from infuse scene a while since i got my skyrocket, my wife inherited my infuse so reverted from zues back to stock for her, well no she wants to be rooted etc.... sooo trying to refresh a little, if she is on stock leak lb3 and wants to go to dmans version i think i have to install cwm kernel via odin, which cant seem to find, install rom via cwm, then flash stock kernel via sgs kernel flasher to get all video working. Is this correct, if so could someone point me to the odin flashable kernel? please and thanks

(Successful)Scarred to flash any ics rom

Ive tried many of times to flash a ics rom on my infuse but it always ends in a horrific way i usually get stuck in a bootloop, a broken Cwm recovery screen or my phone just doesnt want to turn on half the time i am currently running infused v2.2.3 build w zen core a16 kernel and voodoolag fix how would i flash a ics rom from this rom without any problems, and any suggestions on the best ics rom on xda?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA
1. Make sure you do all of your wipes.
2. Flash once to get blue recovery
3. It will likely hang so get back into recovery and do all your wipes again.
4. Flash the rom again and reboot. Should be good after that.
What steps were you taking?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using Tapatalk 2
You need to flash Gingerbread bootloaders. That's why your recovery is broken. After doing that you'll be good

Okay. Do the wipes as per instructions sake.
First, you're going to have to flash whatever ICS ROM you want. It will be stuck at the Cyanogenmod screen. Wait a minute.Take out the battery and put it back in. Now, when you reboot, you are going to have a messed up BLUE recovery. THIS IS COMPLETELY NORMAL as you have Froyo Bootloaders. What we need you to do is attempt to find the ICS ROM again that you wish to flash. Flash it the second time. Reboot. Voila!

Depends on personal preference. Using nun's aokp and was using RemICS UX edition as well. Both ran very fluent. AOKP has a few more customization options from what I've observed over the cm9 base builds.
Every single ICS ROM has its own distinction. I have personally tried JB's Ultimate ICS and AOKP.
I highly recommend these two. AOKP provides more customization options off the bat, but JB provides its own pros as well. It is just a matter of personal preference.
Good luck!
actually sometimes you wont have to reflash if it boots straight up into it
