[KERNEL] KD1 Deodexed Kernel Only - CWM Flashable

For those of you who want to return your kernel back to stock KD1 (and I can't see any reason why), here's the file to do so.

Copy this to your SD card on your SGS4G. Enter into ClockWorkMod by QuickBoot or the typical button method. Flash using CWM.

Thank i for this

You hit that right on the head. Hence why I did it. It was a fun little exercise too just to:
1) Say I could do it, and
2) Get me a tad bit more familiar with the formats.

is there anyway to get the stock KC kernal?

Sure. It will take me a bit, but I can do the KC1 Deodexed.

are kc1 kd1 and bali the only kernels we can flash without bricking??

I flashed Bali_SGS4G and realized some issues with the sound routing to the speaker on wifi calls, so tried to revert back to original kernel using this update but it gets stuck in an endless loop after the home screen loads. When I go back to Bali it boots up fine. Any Idea ?

I think it could be because my phone is actually a T959VUVKB5. Now I need to see where I can find a stock kernel. Sorry I just got this phone and new to it.

Give me a few. I can see if I can take Krylon's original KB5 package and extract out the kernel to where it may work. No guarantees.

I ended up flashing a stock rom with Odin and I'm back in business now. But if you could do that I'm sure another person with T959VKB5 will appreciate it.
What's the difference between KB5 vs KD1 anyway? Thanks

which will be stable rom with working gingerbread and google video calls?
thanks again.

Sadly I don't think there's a stable Gingerbread ROM yet. People are reporting issues with all the versions (kf1, kf2, kg4, kg6) currently available. I'd recommend sticking to Froyo for now, though I can't point you toward any particular ROM.
This one's pretty popular though:

yea, you soft bricked the phones. puff, you'll have to use odin to flash a new rom and start over. look in the bible for the noobs guide to odin. it has everything you need to restore your phone.
joker, make sure you wipe the data/cache and check your mounts. should look like unmount, mount, mount, unmount.
its not the rom. black ice and frost are phenomenal! once you get it running, you'll love it. hope it works!

lol yea thats what i thought i did! im new to android but i already know that odin is a must have. i have a sprint epic and i soft bricked it a few times as well trying to get it rooted/custom rom. i have the rooted stock kd1 rom for her tmobile sgs and stock rooted ec05 for my sprint sgs. those roms always seem to bring me back from a soft brick so im holding on to those.
another issue im running into is that cwm does not seem to fully install. i replace the recovery file and the reboot into recovery, flash the cwm zip and it works... that is until i reboot the phone, then i get the samsung recovery...
also, i dont think i mounted/unmounted... im going to retry this. oh yeah, what exactly is bionix about??? just curious... i have acs syndicate frozen rom on my epic oc'd to 1.2 and uv'd using genocide 1.1 kernel with lots of mods.
would you guys say that bionix is a good rom? what themes and mods work on this rom?

Your cwm works fine. Once you are in samsung recovery, you should click on reinstall packages.
Once you have installed a rom, I would flash the bali 3.1 kernel its a newer cwm.
Always check mounts.
Check out the bible for bionix info. It's nothing but amazingness from krylon and team whiskey. Same with black ice. Check out trigger too. A lot of options.

Whoa whoa whoa! Don't flash the update.zip file. Just leave it in the root of your SD card and it'll be fine. Follow krylon360's instructions really carefully for this one.
Bionix Frost and Black Ice are EXCELLENT ROMs. I think they're pretty much the top of the line we have right now. Check dsexton702's new mod thread.
Good luck!

Don't worry, your phone is NOT bricked at all, it just has to go into download mode and re-flashed with the stock rom using the Odin3 (TAR file method).
The reason you cannot get it back to recovery mode is that by trying to flash a none compatible rom it messes up the bootloader in the phone and as far as I can tell the only way to get it to work is by using Odin flash method which is really easy if you follow all the instructions completely.
Again, good luck!

Good job on reading threads before flashing Anything smart one! BTW there are only like 3 roms out for this phone right now!!!
Big dog Infuse I997 running Infused 1.5.3, Defused 1.5

[Q] I'm just so overwhelmed!

Ok so am familiar with android, and regularly flash and tweek my nookColor, but this phone is just WOW!
Ditching an iCrap4 for this phone was the best idea I had in a while, and within an hour after buying it I rooted it (had to do other shopping) . But there is so much more to choose from for an actual android device. The thing is I want to stay on stock 2.2.1 for a little while, until I do a lot more studying on roms.
Ok so here are my questions after tearing thru the searches with several different phrases:
1: Can I flash different kernels on stock rom? I keep getting many threads and read thru them hard but can't find the answer. Looking at Community Kernel 8.
2: Darn, reading thru other threads while creating this post fried my brain, forgot what 2 was.
Thanks y'all.

Yes You can! . I have flashed many different kernels on stock rogers infuse 2.3.3 with odin. I dont see why you wouldnt be able to on the AT&T version.

Sweet! Now to read up on odin, but will SGS or CWM work on the stock? That was the second question.

SGS kernel flasher works fine on stock ROOTED 2.2.1 ROM. I believe CWM is flashed/installed when you flash the community kernel in SGS kernel flasher or other method. I can't remember off-hand as it's been a while since I was on stock froyo for any length of time. LOL.
You will probably also want to read up on Heimdall as well. It's a good method of flashing pretty much anything to your phone and Odin can be finicky sometimes. Personally, I've never had a problem with Odin but knowing how to use both is a good idea. You know, just in case.

Even sweeter then, and I have CWM already, so that will get replaced? No problem.
This is gonna be hectic keeping all the stuff for the "andros" seperate. lol
I'm really itching to flash a rom, but this thing is set up like I like it, and it was a pain getting her there.
That is why I am waiting to flash, I'll get bored with the way it looks in a week or so, and start over.
Plus RESEARCH is crucial.
Thanks y'all

Ok flashing community v8 now and this voice is telling me it has 5 mins left, oh that is cool!
Now how do I tell if it took? What should cpu spy say? And I still have the green CWM. ( using rom manager, think its ok but can I switch it?)
3 button takes me to Red CWM 2.5.1.3 Voodoo lagfix. It wont let me get to my actual mSD card though. Is that normal?

I don't think rom manager does us infuse owners any good so you can install it but I've read it doesn't work all that well with our phones. It worked flawlessly with my n1 but support for infuse is not there yet.
I've never been able to mount the SD card in red cwm if that's what you were referring to. The community kernel does not overclock so really you just take advantage of the ext4 fs and voodoo lagfix (robot voice lol).
Hope this helps.

if your on stock i believe they are located somewhere else, but the main question is why are you still on stock??? :O
want good battery life and performance? CM7 is the way to go. yeah you can get prolly the same off infused or other roms, but thats after numerous tweaks, tweak this change that, tighten that up, loosen that up, delete that, add this blah blah blah. in my experiences, CM7 is the best out of all of them.
just my 7 cents.

Is everything (bluetooth) working on CM7 (HDMI doesn't I know)? Weird issues of any kind?
That or Serendipity are what I am looking at.

Bluetooth is the only buggy thing. But I don't use it so it doesn't bother me. Other than that its amazing.

If the bootanimation.zip isn't in system/media try data/local. I don't currently have an infuse, in waiting for mine , but other phones I've owned have had the zip in data/local... Good day

Tried data local, but I think the only way to get custom is to have a custom rom. No boot.zip on phone at all using a searcher.

it has to kernel enabled too... Once you get on CM7, if you do, it will be in the media folder.

So Im lookin at S7, but coming from stock ROM, with infused 2.0 kernel, I know I need the infused GB kernel after flashing the ROM, but do I have to wipe system and DATA, and start customizing my stuff again? Or just format system, cache and dalvic, flash rom and kernel, fix permissions, and go? Then my phone should be the same with all stuff there, just updated to a better ROM.

[Q] Infuse 4g - Broken CWM - ICS 4.0.4 Infinitum Rom

Hello, I am a long-time viewer of xda but a new member, this is my first post.
(and yes, i looked for a similar theard. i could not find one.)
So, onto the problem.
I flashed Infinitum 1.1.1 to my Infuse using cwm recovery. I noticed problems right off the bat when after i had installed the zip, i rebooted into recovery then it got stuck on the samsung logo and i had to pull the battery (a normal event when flashing this rom) So when i pulled the battery and booted into recovery to try again, the cwm recovery was terribly screwed up. The top half of the screen was pixelated, and the navigation menu was off center. I was still able to use cwm to flash the rom successfully, But cwm remains srewed up.
So i tried to reflash cwm recovery using rom manager. but when i rebooted i was stuck in a recovery boot-loop that i had to get out of using odin.
I then flashed the rom again using the same procedure suggested by its developer, and it worked, but cwm is still acting as it was before. (the pixelated top half of the screen and the off center navigation menu. )
So can i get some help? i thought about removing cwm the using some other recovery. I also heard that cwm wont work on ics, but im unsure what it is.
Thanks in advance.

You don't have Gingerbread bootloaders. That's why recovery looks the way it does.
You need to Odin or Heimdall back to Gingerbread stock (I find Heimdall much easier for this) and then flash Entropy's DD kernel to get back into red recovery to flash Infinitum.

Yup, it'll work just fine
Just follow all the instructions for Heimdall to a T (there aren't many) and everything will be fine

Yeah...heimdal is the best way to get bootloaders...odin doesnt always do it and no custom rom includes them that i am aware of...
I had written detailed instructions for another person...ill try and find them and paste it here...
Also-dont use rom manager, that thing is known to cause bricks/bootloops so using it is asking for bad ju-ju lol

Have you tried flashing boot loaders?
Here is how to do it...
1) Download uclb3 heimdal by qckster
2) open the program
3) put phone in download mode
4) click flash (leave program open when finished DO NOT CLOSE)
5) after it finishes and your phone reboots, put the phone back in download mode and reconnect to PC
6) click flash bootloader on the heimdal program you left running
7) flash, let reboot and your problems should be gone
Download mode instructions
1) pull battery
2) put battery back in
3) hold volume up + down
4) connect phone to PC with USB cable *don't let go of volume*
Just because you were on gingerbread previously does nit mean you have ginger bread boot loaders...I had ginger bread since the first leaks and did not have boot loaders until a month or two ago when I flashed them using those steps above...

Thank you for posting the guide. I literally just got done flashing GB bootloaders to my Infuse because of the rainbow Recovery when I'm on ICS. I used Odin though and used GB loader that a member posted in the AOKP Uniporn thread. I was scared but there really isn't anything to be afraid of. I tried using Heimdall but dang that was nerve racking because I was trying to use it on Mac and it wouldn't let me do the flash.

Good deal, glad you got it sorted out. And to clear up some confusion that is in this thread: you don't have to flash an entire Gingerbread rom to get the bootloaders. We all have our preferred ways of doing it, but you CAN flash just the bootloaders.
Here is both a Heimdall and an Odin way to get JUST the bootloaders. That's all that is necessary for someone who has rainbow distortion issues on an ICS or Gingerbread rom.:
See the third post (HERE) in Entropy512's Unofficial CM9 thread for instructions on how to flash just the bootloaders using the Heimdall command line. Or, see the answer to question 1.) in the FAQ of the rooted UCLB3 Odin thread which is HERE.

Heimdall is one way to get the bootloaders, and here's how I did it.:
heimdall flash --primary-boot boot.bin --secondary-boot Sbl.bin
The second part of your statement isn't true. Odin doesn't do it only when the user can't figure out how to use Odin.

thank you everyone.
Being a creature of habit i ended up flashing to rom and bootloaders using odin. that did indeed fix CWM right up.

GB loader

Thank you for posting the guide. I literally just got done flashing GB bootloaders to my Infuse because of the rainbow Recovery when I'm on ICS. I used Odin though and used GB loader that a member posted in the AOKP Uniporn thread. I was scared but there really isn't anything to be afraid of. I tried using Heimdall but dang that was nerve racking because I was trying to use it on Mac and it wouldn't let me do the flash.

I am trying to get those GB Bootloaders. Would you be able to provide them ? or to provide the AOKP Uniport thread ?

Unfortunately I haven't had this device for over 3 years now. You'll have to do some searching for that.
