Step 1 - Boot to recovery
Step 2 - Back up (just incase)
Step 3 - Flash kernel of choice
(optional)Step 4 - Wipe 'cache' and 'Dalvik Cache'
Step 5 - Reboot
Step 6 - PROFIT!!!!
The cache, and dalvik wipe are optional to me. I always do it, and have better luck that way. Doesn't harm, just makes that next boot longer as it rebuilds those caches. I had an issue ONCE where I had to wipe cache, and just do it every time I flash a kernel now

Quick noob question: what is a new kernel good for ?
I already have AOKP 4.0.4 on my P500, but saw different talks about different kernels.
So, what is the kernel and what it does.
Wil flashing a new kernel affect other stuff (installed apps, settings...) ?

There are different kernels that people have worked on that are better for certain purposes. Consider the ROM a airplane, and the kernel the pilot. Different pilots are better at certain things, but all are certified to fly the plane
Things that our kernel devs have added are touch screen driver fixes (LGs were ****), undervolting and CPU frequencies additions for performance, VPN stuffs, ect ect. When you install a new kernel,it won't make you lose any data or settings. Everything will be just as it is for you.
Basically adding features and improving performance beyond what LG provides. Looks like Williams awesome looking AOKP is running the same kernel Hehap does on the version of ICS I am running and it is pretty good. I am testing DJnoxDs ICS kernal with touch screen fixes and vysnc off here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1587209 and it is pretty fantastic so far.
But if you wanted to try out different kernels with the ROM you areon, you can flash it over in recovery. If you do a backup in recovery before hand then you can easily go back to the kernel he provides.
Just make sure if you are having any issues with his ROM after that, to keep the fact you changed kernels in mind. Check the threads for the kernel you are trying if issues come up after flashing, or at least mention in William's thread that you are using a different kernel if issues are coming up so bug reporting happens correctly.

Got it, thank you very much for the infos.

LinuxBozo experience of Ghostie.Napkinz

Just wanted to start off and say a BIG THANKS for LinuxBozo and his amazing infuse mod which lets us use the other samsung roms (JVQ restricted )
I have been experimenting ALOT with various roms and thought i would share some of which i have tested out so far, the only one which gave me some issues was Sensation 2.0 , seems like when you reboot, sometimes you get no netwrok, then reboot, and icons are missing, so its a question.
Obviously this isnt really an OFFICAL rom for the Infuse, but id like to know if anyone else has had nice experience or recommendations for use with this dude's rom.

Hellraiser uses the same Rogers RIL that Infused v2 does, so probably not. (RIL is one of the things that gets swapped out.)
It's often hard to tell for sure because many frameworks won't show HSPA+ even if the RIL/modem are operating in that mode. Hell, even our original Froyo ROMs were broken in that way - they displayed UMTS when in HSPA+ mode. (UMTS is plain vanilla 3G.)
GingerReal - V7.1.4 JVQ
Been running GingerReal V7.1.4 JVQ with Infusion GB kernel and I must say it's snappy. I have not had a single problem with anything. And from what I read Quadrant scores don't mean much, but I got a 3500 OC at 1.6. without Stagefright. I did'nt know Stagefright was til I Googled it. But my phone is very fast and I am very happy.

Which ROM did you test for JVP , i might give it a whirl, i finally finished going through all those roms, The Vibrant rom wasnt very exciting, and seemed to lack the extended power menu drop down which has Reboot, recovery download mode and such, thats a big thing for me.
Darky was my favorite so far,I might try Sensation. If anyone wants to test out a couple JVP roms and try adding in the APN settings, lets see what comes up and post which rom you tested.
Thanks everyone for their input on this, im getting more interested now and i will be trying to use the Infusion Kernel with some of these roms and see if i get a performance boost.
Im not sure if its just me, but whenever i reboot ANY of those roms which are installed with Linux's software , it seems sometimes the icons on the app drawer l ike disappearing, then when i reboot, apps reappear, but the Network to ATT gets cut off, then i reboot again, and sometimes its normal..........Any ideas?

BTW, the default behavior in Sensation is no extended power menu, but if you use the app "Theme Settings (included in the ROM) you can change this.
As to the other issues - that's a new one, I haven't seen it before.

I ran Hawkish 4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032599
I chose it because I saw that the ROM included the background effect from the SGSII, which while I have the SGSII & this feature seems to throw my photos to the way over saturated side - its more appealing for home screen settings and every day use since everything just looked almost wet or gooey. But the setting didn't work I imagine a kernel conflict, but I'm sure this could be built into one of our ROMS later and I wouldn't mind helping out with putting it together.
Overall I thought this ROM was a little laggy for the phone, I'm sure there are others out there that could run MUCH better or smoother.
I find it funny that we get a stock phone and find it boring so we flash a brand new phone to something completely different within an hour and when the next phone comes out we want their stock stuff so we can see how it is on OUR phone...HAHAHA -addicted

I think those are controls for Voodoo Color which:
1) Is extremely difficult to implement on our device (significantly different screen)
2) Is not necessary on our device - our screen fixes most if not all of the problems VC was intended to fix.

Yes sir, I believe you are exactly right. I normally don't like over saturation, but on a HUGE screen it looked great with some gooey gingerbread green stuff around it. My photography looked horrible especially HDR shots, worth it though. The colors on the SGSII and this phone are pretty different tho. But a lot to do with the same resolution on a smaller screen. The screen on the Infuse is a big (no pun) factor that held me to it rather than the SGSII

Okay heres me scenario, hope it helps understand.
1) started off with phone already rooted and such and previously had Infused V2.00 full., Downloaded a JVQ rom ( like Darky's ) , and then downloaded Linux Bozo's rom/mod ) Put both of the zips on the ROOT of the internal SD .
2) backup info and boot into Red recovery.( Shut off device, then hold Vol - and + while pressing power ), release power and continue holding both volume keys).
3) Perform the following
Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache partition, Wipe Dalvik Cache
Install zip from SD card and select the ROM you want to use
Do install from SD card again and this time select the Linux Bozo zip
4) Reboot and you will be in your rom after 10 minutes ( be patient, it takes time ). If you want better performance, install the Infuse GB Kernel. Get it here

I just followed the exact instructions the OP posted up above. With 1 mishap, when I downloaded what I thought was the ROM....I only got the lock-screen (what happens when you read things way too fast & think you know what you did) which I already downloaded and flashed
I mounted the SD card while in recovery and pushed the file containing the ROM over to the phone - flashed it - flashed LinuzBozo's stuff - rebooted & things went well all I had to do was add APN's back.
I really like my current set up BUT I'll probably find something else, before I load the ROM I want I'll run this again with a JVP base and see how things go & defiantly let you guys know. Now I'm curious why it doesn't work for other people.

I think sometimes people either have a bad flash or don't properly wipe data. Same reason lots of people randomly had problems with Infused. (I haven't tried JVP myself though.)
Well, i just finished wrapping up my favorite roms, and i keep jumping between the Sensation rom, and Darky's Rom .
BUT!
I always data wipe, clear cache, factory reset
Idk if this helps, but i saw theres a new Linuz BETA 6 , perhaps this might help problems that a few have been going through.
In closing, i really hope more ROMS designed for the Infuse come fast , i got a feeling with this new mod there will be many to come

This is a very good point. The data wipe is vital for the Infuse no matter what. I have tried it with and without the wipe & all sorts of very strange things go wrong at random. Market apps wont download - Errors when using data - Youtube errors - issues with email. Each time I did it different ones would act up too, never the same.
Full Wipe so far has fixed it without failure
*Edit - Full for me same as prasadudwadia said above - data, cache, and factory reset.

Credits go to everyone on XDA for thier hard work that makes our android smartphone that little more special..
Bugs: You tell me..
READ CAREFULLY:
Ok kernel: You will get a corrupt kernel in this rom simply because kernel devs use the latest NDK release to make kernels. This in turn corrupts the wifi and Bluetooth. So to fix this you will install the rom and then go download either V4.2 or V0.6r from samno's kernel page it has to be those two as only none + kernels will work with this. Remember you must let your phone boot and you must set up your phone before flashing Samno's kernel to fix your wifi and bluetooth.. Remember also that the kernel must be a 21D kernel..
THE FILE SAYS VERSION 1 BUT IS ACTUALLY 1.1 I FORGOT TO CHANGE FOLDER NAME!!
Download Link: https://hotfile.com/dl/155052526/288e9a2/Typhoon_Version_1.zip.html
About theme or themes i have found that i cannot make everyone happy with my choice of theme. So instead i have decided that from now on all my roms will be stock. But good news is i will make a video soon on how to customise your own UI with UOT kitchen.. Keep an eye out for that too ..
How to install:
Before you even start you must make sure you have any V20 baseband or any V21 baseband.
1. You must be rooted to root there are plenty of guides that can be found in the general section please have a look.
2. You must have CWM installed guides can also be found in the general section.
3. Switch off your phone.
4. Once turned off hold the power + Volume down key together till it turns on then let go of power whilst still holding the volume down key.
5. Once in CWM you must wipe everything.
6. Install the new rom that you have downloaded from your SD card.
7. When installation is done restart and enjoy.
I'll have some
meemo you're on fire with these roms mang! keep up the great work
I flashed this over the clean rooted chinese V20G, and when I try to turn on Wifi it says "Error" and obviously doesn't work. I wiped data, cache and Dalvik cache when in CWM, flashed the zip and rebooted. I also had no APN's. I'm currently reflashing it, and if it still doesn't work, I'll download it again.
Edit: re-downloaded, same problems. Maybe it doesn't like the chinese rom?

Erm did you read the READ CAREFULLY bit at all or did you just click download and install it blindly? i have placed a bad kernel on purpose you need to start it and set it up via the lg setup then go to samno's kernel page and download his V0.4.2 or V0.6r and install the kernel that will fix everything your Bluetooth, WiFi etc.. I am sick of people not reading is it hard to give up 5 mins of your time to read things or has technology blinded us humans badly? Oh since you will not read you need a 21D kernel but without plus maybe + works too try and tell me..

The rom is not depended on ghost calls it's the baseband flash either V20G or V21E first as kdz to get baseband. Or get the fls files from the kdz and use smart flash to flash V21E or V20G baseband and use any rom without ghost calls..
Anyway soon i will make a V21E rom might as well wait if you don't want this one..

1.) if i like to change from a installed nightly cynagonmod9 build to a rc or stabel version of cynagon9, what is to do for keeping my
datas and app configuration ?.
there are options in the Rom Pre-Installation
- delete Data and cache
- wipe dalvik cache.
what is needed to flash this downloaded rom?
what are the different between RC and stable builds?
2.) Other question:
What Is needed to flash from cynagon 9 to 10 ?

Hi there
I'm also a new member here but have done several flashes of my different phones.
1) Although I've never used it I would say that Titanium Backup will do what you want in preserving your data and configurations.
You should choose both of these options since you're completely changing ROM.
You'll need ClockworkMod.
RC stands for Release Candidates and is the stage before a Stable version.
2)With that ROM on your phone you should already have the tool for flashing a new ROM, ClockworkMod, installed in your phone.
4) Personally I'm running Siyah's Kernel and to me it made my SGS2 I9100 run smoother then ever.
You'll find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1555259
You can find a perfect guide for your phone and flashing right here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II:_Full_Update_Guide

Good luck and happy flashing
thank you for your advices

You can always leave your data if you wish especially if you are moving from a nightly to an rc. Just wipe cache and dalvik cache and fix permissions. That should be fine. Then if you wish to backup all data you should use Titanium Backup. However you should keep in mind that if you move from CM9 to CM10, you won't be able to restore the applications back! But you can restore the data. First you install the application from the market and then use titanium backup to restore the data of the application.
Remember that you can only restore user applications/data not system ones. So if you have contacts stored on the phone you'll lose them. Even calendar events which are stored locally. You need to snyc the contacts, calendar with google. And with regards to sms there is an aplication that can backup your sms for you unless you are not using go sms or handcent which have a built in feature.
With regards to kernels, CM9 and CM10 kernels are best for battery life (that's what most people say) but they do not have a lot of options available. In my case I cannot suggest you any kernels because I have International SGS2.

[Q] ICS ROM's freezing

Hey everyone,
After trying almost every single ICS ROM available for my O1 P500h, every ROM seems to have the same problem. Although they all run very good, the phone will just hang at random points, but mostly when installing apps. Then requires a hard reset battery pull, or will reset itself after about a minute. Does anybody know of a solution to this? It wouldn't really be that much of a problem if the phone didn't take so long to restart.
I've seen other users report this problem to ROM dev's as well however the problems seemed to be fixed for them by a newer update for the ROM, but even if I use the newest version I still get this problem.
It's not present on CM7, or Jelly Bean (4.1 or 4.2) ROM's as far as the ones that I've tried. I feel like I've tried every single ROM for this phone already. I wanted to move on from CM7 because of it's lack of new-ness compared to ICS and above, and on the other hand Jelly Bean ROM's don't have a lot of internal storage compared to ICS ones, which is a problem for me because I download lots of apps.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I've tried TWRP, CWM 5.0.2.7 and CWM 6.0.2.7. I've been flashing by formatting everything but sdcard (so boot, system, data, cache, etc.) and then installing zip from sdcard. I tried flashing HepHappy's ROM, IcySnap, XperiaICS and Protos9.

The stock kernels which come with the ROM's, which allow you to overclock the phone to 800-something MHz. I never use the overclock though and keeping it on 600MHz that comes out of the box still has the problem. With GB I'd overclock it to 729 for normal use, and on JB 748 for snappier performance with no bad things happening (well, besides battery life)

[Q] How to reflash a new rom?

Hi!
I flashed pac-rom but it keeps my phone awake 24hrs even when i am sleeping therefore 70% battery consumption when i am sleeping and everyday i have been posting in that thread for help or update but dev has left,and this was a stable version with never ending problems for me.So i want to remove this and see if the other rom also behaves like this or not.
I want to remove this rom and gapps as well but i am a newbie and never did this before.I will be really grateful if someone guide me step by step in this.
Please reply soon coz i am not able to live a normal life as battery is creating problems for me.Thanks a lot in advance
LG P500 rooted,pac-rom,aokp 4.2.2,stock kernel

As i said i am newbie things are not clear to me and what i asked in the question is not mentioned clearly and exactly.And since 7 days i am stuck in this esp last three days coz either the rom is a problem or need to be reflashed.And how to remove gapps etc that is not clear dear.Anyone who has a helping nature would write few lines or steps if he wants to help.My head is screwed up with this rom,nothing is working properly and all the time i am busy with my phone.Can't even open my eyes now as i have been continously looking at small screen.
Do not know if i have to reset the phone again or what,how to remove gapps as i do not have google store,gmail and maps in that. I always try to help a newbie coz i know he will not understand things clearly and can screw up,and in my case an experience person can tell if it is some thing else i should do along with that i.e if he would be concerned.
You are the king man so you would not know these small petty things.
Anyway thanks for whatever best you could do.
@kitu34: The procedure for flashing a new ROM is always the same:
1. Download the ROM, put it on your SD card (I recommend creating a folder in your SD card for your ROMs, kernels, etc., so that they're all in one place, but that's just a suggestion, not a requirement. Optional: Download the recommended GAPPS package for the ROM (if the ROM comes with built-in GAPPS, no need to download this).
2. Boot into recovery. You should be able to reboot into recovery simply by pressing power button > reboot > recovery. If not, then shutdown the phone and press & hold power+volume down+home.
3. In recovery, perform a factory reset (wipe data & cache), wipe dalvik-cache, and wipe system.
4. In recovery, flash the zip of the ROM you want to install (the procedure for this depends on your custom recovery; just browse around the menus for the option to flash a zip). If the ROM has a separate GAPPS package, you can also flash it here. Note: Always flash the GAPPS after you flash the ROM, not before.
5. Reboot system.
Flashing a custom kernel uses the same procedure, except you only wipe cache & dalvik-cache in step 3.

Update the ROM? Do you mean flashing a newer version of the same ROM? Some ROMs can be updated by simply wiping cache, dalvik, & system (no need to wipe data), then flashing the new version. Personally, I advise doing a clean install every time when installing a new ROM, even if it's just an update. That means a full wipe: data, cache, dalvik-cache, & system. A clean install helps you avoid potential errors.

If you want good battery life, then I suggest staying away from Jelly Bean ROMs for now -- the battery drain is huge. If you want to try a stable JB ROM, then the latest Jenkins build is good, as long as you don't mind battery drain and a couple of relatively major bugs (those being bluetooth A2DP not working and wifi hotspot reboot).
If you want a relatively more stable, but still high-end, ROM, then stick with ICS. Hephappy's CM9 is good (check the thread in the General LG-P500 forum), or if you want a tweaked & modded ICS, then get neko95's ICySNAP.
That said, the king of battery life still is Gingerbread. I'm personally using the latest unofficial CM7.2 build by FitAmp; it's stable and with good battery life, better than ICS or JB.

ok then for now i will try jenkin's coz that was the first rom i downloaded on my pc but did not flash.actually i have serious battery and other issues that is why i am just getting rid of this now and then read about the roms you mentioned.after fashing i will tell you how it goes and if that also has a battery issue then the next...so kind of you to help as there are very few people here who really want to help.(the other day grgtm from cebu really helped me when my phone went in fastboot,cebu guys are damn good hehe)thanks a lot

I am doing with jenkins as i already have but it does not have gapps as i am not flashing the very last update which has gapps with it.\So is it ok to use rashed's cm10's mini gapps?

Yes, Rashed's mini gapps is for all cm10.x roms, including the Jenkins builds.
Edit: By the way, grgtm is from Romania, not Cebu (Philippines). You probably got him mixed up with someone else.

The home button not working is a result of a GAPPS error when the system partition is too full. You'll need to trim the ROM prior to flashing (search the cm10 thread; it's too complicated for me to explain here) or download the version of cm10.1 with built-in GAPPS. The fact of the matter is, our phones has a very small system partition, hence why we have to go to all this trouble when using JB.

You're seriously going to need to learn how to help yourself, @kitu34. Instead of asking for step-by-step instructions all the time, try looking for them yourself; simply using the "search this thread" function and running a search for "trim" in Rashed's thread would give you what you need. In fact, here's the link to the program used to trim ROMs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33349661 -- that link was in the first post of Rashed's thread, labeled (and in very big letters) CLICK ME. The instructions for using the program is also in the thread, and the program's interface is so simple that simply browsing around should tell you what to do.

I tried Jenkins with rashed's mini gapps and worked perfectly(except battery drain), instead using an tool for rom editing, use an app like root uninstaller to get read of unnecessary apps to free some space on internal memory or use an d2ext script(but it got some strange behavior from my phone, you need a really fast sd card, an class 10 for that, and a reliable brand, mine is class 4, so in the final, sd card will worth half price of the phone)

Thanks,i have both titanium and es explorer,can i do with that by simply uninstalling system app? Actually someone told me not to this way and instead trim the rom.Even i am confused what is the difference.Either it creates problems or the amount of space we get by uninstalling with titanium is less compared to trimming the rom.
I will later what i did later.
