What is the best kernel I should use on my trusty TF101? I am currently running a nightly of CM10 with TWRP recovery. Since I'm new to the whole process, do I wipe everything before installing the new kernel, then install the CM10 ROM and so forth or can I just install the kernel on top of the CM10 install and go from there?
Much thanks to everyone!

Wrong place mate, you need to post in the questions forum next time. Afaik RaymanFX's Elite kernel is good for cm10 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1998297) just make sure you download the cm10 specific version, no wipe is necessary just flash and reboot.

My Xoom has Tiamat Manta Ray installed .... I haven't kept up with the more recent Tiamat updates. I would now like to install the ICS "nightly" updates.
Originally, this was a Canadian Xoom, but I "converted" it to a US version prior to installing Manta Ray.
Model Number is showing as "Xoom", Android Version 3.2, Kernel Version 2.6.36.4Tiamat_Xoom-v2.0.0-Katana-stockGPU-gfed7aa6, Build number HTJ85B
I have CWM 3.2.0.0 installed.
If I want to install EOS ICS nightlies, do I just flash EOS ICS and GApps via CWM and the micro-SD card or is there something else I need to do, e.g. go back to stock? I think that I need to wipe the cache, but I am not sure. I have some paid apps installed and I don't want to lose those.
Thank you

you only need to wipe in cwm (rogue or the one by solarnz) and make a nandroid and then flash
Back up apps in Titanium Backup. Do a nandroid backup in recovery. Best to wipe data/factory reset to avoid problems, ease troubleshooting. If not, at least wipe cache and dalvik cache. Flash latest nightly for your device, mine is wifi- so Wingray 44. Flash latest gapps, 10.3. Reboot.

Thanks for both of the replies. I'm presuming CWM 3.2.0.0 that is already installed should be OK.
I'm looking forward to trying ICS.

Go for it...Eos ICS is great.
Quick newb question (sorry), can I oc with any/most/some kernels that come with a rom? Haven't done it yet and I just flashed EOS nightly on mz604?

Eos roms support overclocking...the stock roms don't.
Sorry to be off topic but how high would you run the CPU.. I have it at 1.408 right now I put it to 1.7 but my Xoom rebooted shortly after..

Mine runs stable at 1.6, but will reboot at 1.7. They're all a bit different. 1.5 seems to be a sweet spot for most CPUs.
Hello, Im planning to install custom ROM on my Motorola Xoom.
Since Im from Asia, Motorola didn't release ICS and planning to release ICS at Q3 of 2012.
But then still uptoday, there's no update from Motorola.
I want to try custom rom for Xoom and can I ask if Jelly bean rom of EOS is good enough?
And what if I want to go back to stock rom? Can I do that?
Thank you so much.
Yes, EOS is good.
Here's link on stock firmwares too.

Thank you for the reply.
I would like to know if there are any guide of Team EOS to install JB coming from Honeycomb.
Im sorry but I really dont know what Im doing right now, if you could just point out how to done it correctly I would be glad.
Thank you.
It sounds like you are stock. Sorry, can't provide exact links at this time, but check the stickies in the forums. You will need to:
- Unlock boot loader (will happen in next step)
- Install CWM (clockwork mod recovery. This will also give you root)
- Root
- Download the EOS latest ROM, and flash via CWM.

Unless you use some tool that incorporates a script for gaining root access, flashing a custom recovery does not necessarily mean you also get root access.
Im now running at jelly bean made by team eos for xoom wifi only.
Thank you for the guide. The jelly bean made my day.
Just want to ask again, what if I want to update the build made by Team EOS.
What software should I use in order to backup my saved games. :victory:
Thank you. Have a nice day.
I also want to ask Im using a CWM recovery 3.2, im reading that there 5.0++ version.
Are there any difference with this CWM recovery? Thanks. Again.

Use titanium backup to backup apps (like games). The data that is backed up for the apps will (typically) be your progress within those games.
Some games store this information elsewhere though (like GTA3).
To update EOS build:
Download the latest nightly, put on SD card.
Clear cache partition, dalvik.
Flash nightly.
Reboot.
It will delete all my apps right?

If you are simply updating nightlies, you don't need to wipe anything and thus you won't lose anything. Just install the zip, reinstall gapps and reboot.
If the devs say at some point that for "x" release you need to wipe stuff, then you'll want to do a titanium backup of everything so you can restore after the install.
Sorry if this has already been asked before. If you already have a custom ROM with stock kernel, and now you want to install a custom kernel, would you just boot into custom recovery then flash it on top of the existing ROM just like flashing Gapps? or do you have to wipe the ROM first, flash the kernel then ROM after that? Here's another question. Custom ROMs come with their own kernels, would my custom kernel get overwritten when I upgrade my ROM to a newer version (for example from cm10.1-20130226 to cm10.1-20130309?

Correct just copy the kernel to your sdcard clear cache in recovery and flash away.
I tried your ROM and rebooted twice and still looking good. Hope it'll still survive after the 3rd reboot. However, I notice some delay before the first ring back, probably due to weak signal in my area. I'll try more at different locations in the next few days to see how it goes. I really appreciate your contribution and all coders with TeamChopsticks who have nailed down the root cause of audio loss in the cm10.1 nightlies for skyrocket.
I'm having problem with Carbon ROM. My video doesn't playback I only see purple screen. However taking pictures is fine but both the qualities are low. I already set to HD. I flashed AOKP from toyes and REVOLT they had no problems with the video.

I bought an S3 today that was already rooted with CleanRom 5.5.1 installed. I am wanting to install CM10. What are the steps I need in order to do so?

Download latest cm10,gapps, go to recovery, wipe data/system/cache/dalvic, flash Rom then gapps. Make sure you have the latest recovery whether it's twrp or cwm.
Also if your going to flash a kernel, make sure it's aosp and and 3.4 if you're going to flash the latest cm10. I usually set up my phone and then go back to recovery and flash a kernel.
Also,I would backup your imei. There's a few threads around about why to do so and how to back it up. Sorry, can't post any links at the moment

Don't forget to backup your current ROM if it isn't already and
Go over to rootzwiki there is a stickied thread there about making a special backup for your nv items (imei meid n stuff)

Hi,
Make a nandroid and backup your phone first.
Wipe clean in recovery(Data,cacheand dalvik)
Flash the ROM and Gapps first, and boot up.
Let the ROM settle for a while,then flash the new kernel.

You don't "need" a new kernel. After a nandroid, do a full wipe except sdcard and flash rom and gapps, since you're coming from ics.
However, if you're dissatisfied with the kernel provided with the rom, then go ahead and flash that too.
JAM THAT THANKS BUTTON.
Happy to help.

Hi,
IIRC the Chronic kernel is included in the ROM.
Check after you have installed the ROM.
It is listed in settings/about phone.
