do you really need that? its not nuclear physics to keep your kernel zips in your sd storage and to boot into recovery to flash whichever one you want to use at the time.

I'm more or less looking for something to backup my stock kernel. Can't seem to find one as a flashable zip

Flash image by joeykrim or kernel manager on the market if you are really that lazy. You can also flash kernels with rom manager. There is nothing to backup a kernel as the data doesn't change. All you need is a zimage of the stock kernel.

you can flash a stock rom for the kernel, or just pull out it out of the stock rom. then flash with fastboot/adb/terminal emulator.

Any kernels work with stock ROM?

Im rooted and have flashed 4 ROMS and they all freeze at boot.

You using the proper radio? Stock as in 2.3.5? What roms you try to flash?

Im a retard, I meant that i flashed 4 different kernels. I just had to restore my stock backup so now i am back on 2.3.5 rooted. I just want to try a different kernel and it seems like they all just keep getting stuck at the boot screen. They actually freeze, no animation or anything. I let them sit for 15 minutes each time.

You have to use the right radio because a gb radio doesnt work with an ics rom. And the kernel is the same way

La3 was 2.3.6 Rom so your baseband should be fine for faux kernel

Wipe cache and dalvik cache
Flash the kj2 radio
Wait 30 seconds and flash it again
Then try flashing faux kernel and wait 30 seconds before rebooting system.

Honestly i think ODIN is windows only You might need to torrent a windows 7 iso and just install it without a key in bootcamp. If your phone is busted it's probably worth all the trouble.

I fixed thanks for everyone's help

4.2 ROMs

Twice I've flashed 4.2 ROMs and both times they ran good but overnight my phone froze. I had to pull the battery and restore a 4.1 ROM. Anyone else have trouble?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2

I've never had this issue and I have flashed several different 4.2.1 ROMs. Flashing a kernel along with the ROM by chance? Under clocking or undervolting at all?

No changes. Flashed Liquidsmooth and Black bean.

Been running CM10.1 as a daily driver for about 2 weeks now and haven't had any terrible issues.

I flash using TWRP
Factory Reset
Wipe Cache
Wipe Dalvik
Wipe System
Flash ROM
Flash Gapps
Reboot
Set Up and Go

Question on this...
Do I need to go to a ASOP based 4.1.1 before going to 4.2?

There's no need to flash any prior OS just before you switch to another rom.

Kernel flashing help needed

Hey guys. My gs3 is running jellybean 4.3 and its rooted with saferoot. Everything is fine but I want a little more performance. Is there a way I can flash a custom kernel and make it faster or do I have to flash a ROM and then flash the kernel with safestrap? Any help will be great

If my understanding is correct no u cant.. Since u took the 4.3OTA u can flash TW custom rom but also flash the stock kernel.

You need to flash the kernel modules, you don't mess with the kernel at all. It'll brick the phone.
