[Q] GT-I9003L update

Hi all! I'm trying to update my Samsung Galaxy S (GT-I9003L). It's rooted.I get an OTA update but when I try to apply it, it says "Kernel verify fail. Update fail"
My current firmware version is 2.3.6, my baseband is I9003LUBKPD, my kernel version is is 2.6.35.7-CL765780 [email protected] #1 and my compilation number is GINGERBREAD.UBKPE
I think the problem has to do with the phone being rooted. I unrooted it using the clockwork mod recovery menu, but it didn't work either.
Is there anything I could do?
Thanks!!!

Its giving that error because u r rooted.
Rooting changes your kernel.
And even after unrooting ur device from recovery the kernel remains the same.

So, does it mean I'm out of luck?

No.
U may flash stock rom.
And later from settings u may update ur phone.

Is there a way to just restore the recovery kernel without flashing the whole rom?

(I tried to find the answer before asking but I haven't been able to) Do I need to flash the full stock rom? Or is there a way to just restore the stock recovery kernel? I'm asking because when I rooted I just flashed the PDA file to the phone, but I'm still using the stock rom.
And... is there any guide or tutorial to do this?

-Removed for Personal Information-

I have one way to help.
Keep the stock fw file on sdcard and then by using mobileOdin, select kernel and choose the rom file.
And dont forget to uncheck the rooting options at bottom.
But be sure you have a backed up ur current rom.
As i m not sure if it will definitely work or not.

just flash the entire stock firmware if you want to get OTA

[repack] CM nightly 25122012 for new Wkparks bootloader

This is repack of CM10 to work with new Wkparks bootloader it is for use with new partitions (ICS) and Wkpark bootloaders for everyone who doesnt want to downgrade to GB or has truble with it.
How to use:
1) You are on ICS
2) flash recovery
3) flash Wkparks bootloaders
Download zip and put it on sdcard, download gapps and put it on sdcard
Go to recovery wipe data, cache and system
Flash ROM and gapps.
Reboot
Bugs: CM10 bugs
And one most inportant: DO NOT ever from CM10 menu reboot to recovery.
You will be stuck in recovery bootloop.
Only way to fix that is to flash Xbsall bin.
Reboot to recovery by holding buttons.

Great work!
Finally I will test drive CM10 on my mobile, couldn't be arsed to reflash back to GB!
Do you think it's too much to ask if you could port nightlies with some periodicity, like twice a month or so?

I will update.

Ah ok so I guess I shouldn't update the nightly unless it comes from this thread?
By the way great work, loving it. Only had one little glitch when booting, funny looking twrp screen flashed up then it booted into CM10
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda app-developers app

Yes, if you use this one wait for my update. That funny looking screen at booting is known for CM10, it is the last screen that you see when you reboot. Remember not to press reboot to recovery you will brick it. Reboot normaly then use key combo to go to recovery.
And dont thank me, thank to acree hi did all the work. I only make it to work on new bootloader.

[Q] (Possibly) bricked optimus 3d

So I just installed CM10 nightly ( jelly bean if I'm correct ) and I think something's wrong. When I try to boot it first thing that looks wierd is random colors (shouldnt be like that). After that it boots up after loading and I can use it. After using it for 2-3minutes it just turns itself off and I have to take my battery and put it back in to get it working again for 3minutes. How do I fix this, I am sure I did nothing wrong.
Edit: I installed it over CM7 nightly, I think it might be because I didn't wipe caches, but now I dont have rom manager.

AW: [Q] (Possibly) bricked optimus 3d
You have to read a little before you flash your phone... you need your baseband for right communication eith phone. If you want to flash baseband you need flashtool. The files you need are fls files. I consider you to go back to cm7 for now and to read few tutorials, so you have enough expierience to flash cm10. Cm10 had a lot of bugs because its the nighly version. And for most people they need to flash bernis files and wkparks bootloader to get cm10 working.

flash oldest custom rom that you find and update after with LG Suport Tool to stock 2.2.2 , that will make your phone stock withaout custom recovery or anything else, download from LG site that tool, and 2.2 or 2.2.1 roms you can find in development, something really old
or downgrade to old bb and upgrade with same LG Suport Tool
I think is safest way
