Not really sure what that means. No, always choose the zip you want to install.

sorry John....how do I know if I have the kernel installed? I booted into recovery and did wipe/cashe and installed the zip....
I've actually got a question for you guys that's related. I'm running Humble 1.6 EE4 Froyo and I want to install the EP1W leak. Is it possible for me to just drop the zip in the SDcard and run CWM from there? Or do I have to odin it in?

You have to flash through ODIN which will erase all data.

I got a question...what is the advantages of having vs not having bootloaders in the ROM? Is there any difference at all?
EDIT: Unlocking/Removing the bootloader allows you to install custom Firmware on your Android phone.

Umm... that's probably because it's meant for froyo bro. If you can still boot into the rom that you were in, add the su fix in the Doctorz rom and then flash it. If not, odin to stock, root FROYO, 3e, gtg community kernel. You know the deal.

If you had really researched it you would have read that SOC won't root the kk3 leak.
The GB roms that you see have been modded or ported.
To root the kk3 leak all you have to do is flash entropy's kernel dated 11/02/11.

I'm sorry, but I'm a total noob with Samsung. I rooted to a particular ROM, but ran into some issues and had to unbrick the phone. Upon doing so, I selected the kk3 leak and then lost root. I used SOC 2.3.3 to try to reroot, but I got stuck at step 7. So I want to try flashing Entropy's kernel as you mentioned. I'm not sure how to do this though. The kernel is in a CWM .zip format, but Odin reads .tar files. Do I unzip the .zip file and then convert to a .tar file? This didn't seem to work when I initially tried it, but perhaps I did something wrong. Any special settings I need to use? Also, do I just need to reboot after I flash it and I will have root? If not, what else must I do?
Sorry again for my lack of understanding. I've been trying to find an answer for hours and have become a little desperate. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

I'm trying out stock rooted FP5. So far it seems really fast. I'm not thrilled with the "poop and puke" but I can handle it for a while. Do yall think the stock kernel is faster than PB&J with Ext4?
Also which is better for debloating, Titanium or Root Explorer?

regarding the kernel, I have found stock FP5 to be just as zippy as PBJ on EXT4. however, I'm sure that when IMNUTS is through creating a new kernel for us, that will be the bees knees...
Yeah I'm totally psyched about coming developments for FP5. Imnuts is awesome for coming back to fix us up a kernel even though he's not using a Charge anymore. And of course Dwitherell has been there for us right along. Ya gotta love that guy.
Update to FP8 radios have been released. The update i'm sure is being Kanged and worked on by the DEVs here. But update your radio's now if you would like. Run the zip in CWM. You "HAVE" to be on FP5 to update to FP8. Not sure what effects it will have if you try without being on FP5E.
Please thank MidnightNinja for the original fp5 to fp8 radio work.

Baseband needs to be FP5 - that's why it failed.

Working like a charm. I do hope we get the full update on Tweaked as my wife and I don't get to get new phones until January! So jealous of all the cool phones coming out. But, I know when I get mine then, all of your phones will be obsolete like the Charge is. LOL They are coming out too fast with fantastic phones. Thanks for this to all who made it possible.

Nope. It only touches the radios not the kernel, so it's safe. I've been running stock rooted FP5 since it seems to be less hassle that Lazarus (consistently smoother and more stable)
I always keep a copy the latest SuperSU CWM zip on my SD card just in case, but I didn't need it.

That's good know, I've never actually rooted my phone with the stock ROM. Always just Odin a custom ROM so it's rooted already.
New modem is very good i get stronger signals from it.
Haven't had any issues with the quality either.
I'm running tweaked 3.2 fp8 radio 12/19 pbj kernel and latest and greatest v6 supercharger script.
My phone has never been faster or Smoother
After I install this how do I know if it worked? CWM said install successful but phone info still says FP5. Is that just cause Tweaked or whatever told the phone to display FP5 or did it not work?
