[Kernel][GB][KG4/KG6/KH2/KI1/KI3/KJ1] Stock Kernel + CWM + Voodoo EXT4 Lagfix

These are modded stock kernel from all gingerbread leak. I didn't change anything to these kernel, they are pure stock but did added few mods to it.

Installation procedure for RAW LEAK version:
- Install kernel using ODIN version, phone will reboot automatically.
- Go to recovery (adb reboot recovery).
- Disable voodoo
- Reboot
- Install busybox from market
- Go to recovery (adb reboot recovery)
- Enable voodoo
- Reboot

Now im at a totally balnk screen still in download mode took the battery out put it back in and its a black screen still in DM..

Actually where can i find the bootloaders? I flashed hawks deodexed sans the bootloaders. will I have to extract from original leak? Or should I still be on froyo cause I can't get into recovery on this rom

im flashing back to KD1 then ill flash the debloated version then ill odin this kernal see if that works

Damn! Now I have to switch to Gingerbread. Great work drhonk!
Thank You! You are the Man!

So... my kernel flash failed, and I got the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue." message... Am I screwed? or should I still be able to enter download mode?
EDIT: Scratch that, it took a bit, but my phone appeared in Odin again. No worries
DOUBLE EDIT: This just flashes in the 'PDA' field right? I'm not doing anything wrong?

AThis sounds like good news, if only i understood what most of the stuff meant. Can someone give me accurate, precise directions on flashing this, it would be greatly appreciated. Current info: I'm on balil 3.3UV kernel, ICBINB, and kf2 modem. Thanks for all the help awesome community! Thanks to drhonk for making this kernel too!

This is a modded stock kernel from the latest gingerbread leak, UVKG4. I didn't change anything to the kernel, it's pure stock but did added few mods to it. In theory .. this kernel should work with any GB leak for SGS4G as long as you're still on Froyo bootloader or KG4 bootloader, otherwise you won't be able to get to recovery.
Things I added:
- CWM Recovery (Voodoo Red).
- Voodoo lagfix (it will convert /system, /data, and /cache partition to ext4 during first boot)
- Auto root (kernel will automatically root your GB ROM if its not rooted and install superuser.apk)
NOTE:
This is ODIN file, use ODIN to flash this kernel .. if you don't know how, google it.

To flash. Put it into PDA on ODIN, or extract it and put the zImage in Heimdall.

sounds like it's connecting fine.. and you described it right, flash the stock rom in Odin first and boot up to make sure it works or do some minor set-up, then flash the latest 8/17 CWM in Odin and immediately boot into it after, make the backup then flash whatever rom/kernel you want (Gummy 2.0 has one included and will enable voodoo lagfix on first boot)
not that hard once you do it once or twice and kinda learn how it all works and whatnot

do you. mind shooting me a download. link. of stock rom and cwm what about kernals do I need to. flash a kernal or is. that included in stock. rom as well as gummy charged

and no the stock rom does not include a custom voodoo kernel but the Gummy 2.0 package does so it will install the kernel and rom and enable voodoo lagfix on first boot (the Gummy rom package includes version 2.2.5 of that kernel I linked so it's a bit old, you can update it if you want by flashing the new one in CWM afterwards)

you don't really need to format the sd card as everything android related (not phone #'s or pictures or anything *you* put on there) will be wiped when you do the wipes in CWM

no no no stock rom in PDA first, boot up after the flash, power down and connect to Odin again and put CWM in PDA (everything goes in PDA) and flash then unplug phone after it passes and immediately boot into CWM no regular boot up.. then wipe data, dalvik (under advanced) and cache then flash Gummy or rom of your choice (custom rom build must match stock build like stock EP1W with EP1W Gummy 2.0), select reboot phone option and let the kernel activate voodoo lagfix when it boots up (may take a while)... once it starts you'll have a rooted voodoo custom rom, then you can hold the power button down until the reboot options menu comes up and select recovery to proceed to flash the updated kernel if you want
also the modems will be the ones installed with the stock rom, but you can flash new ones in Odin in the PDA section if you want

probably because the rom didn't include a custom kernel or for whatever reason it didn't make it work.. flash or reflash a custom kernel and there won't be any more problems

GB OTA manual update.zip-leaked!

Thanks to spjetrovic we have the update.zip for the GB update for your use now
http://www.multiupload.com/HAG3RFTBY6
1. Follow imnuts instructions for preparing for OTA found here http://rootzwiki.com/topic/10202-how-to-prepare-for-the-gb-ota/
2. place file on root of SD card and rename to update.zip
3. boot to stock recovery and select apply update.zip from sd card
It takes a while to complete, so be patient. Make sure you have plenty of battery.
ps. No one is responsible for what you do to your phone except you. This has been tested by at least a dozen people in IRC and works flawlessly when you follow the directions.
pss. this build is 4 days newer than "EP4P" regardless of what the numbering scheme may be.

This belongs in the dev section, also what is included? ROM, KERNEL, RADIO?

GOS,
It is the OTA update that will roll out later next week. It contains all the changes from EE4 to EP4 rom/kernel/recovery/ect.. It is just changes, by no way a stand-alone flash.
And I didn't post in Development, because I didn't develop it. It can be moved if the mods think it belongs there.

Did any of you successfully rooted this?

Just in case no one completely reads the post by Imnuts because I know most people don't.....
You HAVE to flash imoseyon's kernel or you recovery will NOT stick!

you can't let the phone boot after you flash CWM. unselect auto-reboot and then boot straight to recovery after flash

Here are my instructions for getting all this to work:
BEFORE YOU ODIN BACK TO EE4, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE SU FLASHABLE ZIP, THE OTA UPDATE AND IMOSEYON'S KERNEL ON YOUR SDCARD!
Make sure the update file is renamed to "update" and that it's on the root of your sdcard. (not in any folders or anything)
Odin back to EE4. Reboot normally.
Turn the phone off, then reboot into Stock Recovery and run the update.
Once the update finishes and the phone boots regularly. Reboot into Download Mode and plug the phone into the computer.
Start Odin, Uncheck "Auto Reboot", select PDA, NOT PHONE!
Click on the PDA tab and find your recovery file then click "start."
Once it is done and you see the word "PASS" on Odin, unplug the usb cable and press down all three buttons to boot into recovery (volume up, home, power)
Once in recovery, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, mount /system and flash the SU flashable zip.
Go back and wipe cache and dalvik again, mount /system again and flash the kernel.
After that, your recovery will stick and you're good to go. You are now rooted and running on EP4D.

Sorry for the dumb question but after searching, I can't find the answer; how do I access the stock recovery?

You will only get this OTA or be able to use this update if you are on stock, unrooted EE4. You can't get there from any other point.
You can also wait a bit (probably less than a week) and someone will publish full Odins of EP4D. I'm personally not leaving EP4P until we have a deodexed version of EP4D and some themes.

Ah hell..that is a pain in the ass. I'll wait to see if they fixed the crackling on incoming calls before I go through the hassel.

Will Nexus S Unlocked bootloader and custom kernel update OTA to ICS when it's out?

My gf got a Nexus S last month and loves it! She just needs BLN to work... so we unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom Kernel (Matr1x I believe). Will the OTA come through? If so, will it wipe out anything like CWR or the unlocked bootloader? I saw Matr1x already released a ver for ICS so it would be an easy install...

How would I go about updating the device? She's pretty excited for ICS.

It will fail the verifying stage of the update. All the original files of the previous version of the update your flashing needs to be there.

So if I restore the Kernel (I'm not sure how I would go about doing that though, can someone provide instructions? ) would it apply the update at that point? Or do I need to re-lock the bootloader? Relocking would be a pain........

Go back to latest available stock version. (Rooted with Superuser.apk in /system/app is OK) & Keep your Custom Recovery or reflash it.
Put a Superuser flashable zip on your sdcard.
When you have the OTA update.zip somewhere on your sdcard ( Copied from /cache) boot into custom recovery
Flash update.zip manually and directly after it flashes, flash the Superuser.zip right on top of update.
Wipe /cache
Reboot
Download Joeykrim's flash_image gui from the market.
Place custom-recovery.img on root of sdcard. (Rename it to recovery.img)
Flash custom recovery in flash_image gui
Change permissions of /system/etc/install-recovery.sh & /system/recovery-from-boot.p to "000"

I would just wait till ics is out and then youll find a flashable .zip here on xda and you can just flash that like you did with the matr1x kernel... not shure if full wipe would be nescesary but if yes then you can backup your apps through titanium or sth similar!
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Edit: what i actually wanted to say that theres no need to go back to stock now because you can get the update over xda and just flash that!

while we're on the topic....would editing the build.prop keep an OTA from installing? For example, LCD density??

Why not just wait like one day for someone to post a rooted stock ICS rom? I am sure one of our wonderful devs here will be all over it. It will probably show up in one of those REF threads pretty quickly. Then you don't have to mess around with setting root up again. That's what I always did with my EVO Shift so I'll probably do it with this phone as well.

If you hadn't modified your build.prop or removed system apps, you'll just need to flash the stock kernel. Theres no need to flash the whole stock Rom.

What if your bootloader is unlocked and nothing else. Will it get the OTA?

Question since we on the subject when will ics be released for our phones or is it still unknown as to when is gonna be released?

That's exactly what I was looking for... but where would I find the stock Kernel and can I overwrite it while the system is in use? I downloaded the entire stock ROM for her phone so I should have the file somewhere in one of the IMG files (yes, I have mounted them before in Windows)

I even tried it without mounting the system. Install is aborted every time. I know I have to be on the the EP4D radio for this to work. I'm under the impression that eclipse v1. 4 is based on EP4D.
