question about bootloader - General Questions and Answers

i have a samsung gt p3100 rooted, still on ICS. i've tried the cyanogenmod 10.1.2, it works okey, but i get a distorted screen before the cyanogenmod animation appears.
how do we fix this?
do i need to flash a jb bootloader after flashing cyanogenmod based on jellybean? or can i just leave my ics bootloader untouched? will that solved issues about the bootscreen being distorted?
just a follow up, if i flash a jb bootloader, will that still work if i switch back to stock ics?
thanks

Bootloader is not divided like ics or jb that is device specific so dont touch bootloader.. try other things..

There is no bootloader in Samsung devices. I think your problem is kernel-related.

thanks for the response.
so i can just use the cyanogenmod 10.1.2 without even flashing a jb bootloader?

is there a "+ rep" button that i'm missing here? thanks for the response. i switched back to 10.1.2 and flashed gapps. everything is okey. the distorted screen just takes seconds and can be ignored.
thanks again.

[Q] Wich steps do i have take to have CM10

Hello,
As i'm not new to android i'm to the TF300T.
I have at the moment [ROM]ASU-JellyBean-Hydro 2.8-(9/11) Project melted butter smooooth installed and i realize the Tablet uses the Jelly Bean Bootloader. But my question is how do i get from this rom to Cyanogenmod 10? I googled and searched this forum but i just can't find it.
I came from ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T Firmware: V10.4.2.9 Only for WW SKU (Android 4.1) - 2012.08.28 firmware.
u can't at the moment.

I am as well stock on official jb based ROM as it updated the bootloader. There is no way to go back to cm10 or cm9 at this very moment. I can't wait get cm10 running on my system. Have finger crossed....

Yes but i thought i read somewhere that you can downgrade your bootloader and mayby going from stock jb back to stock ics

I'm pretty sure that at this point there's no way to downgrade the bootloader. Hopefully ROMs like CM10 will update the kernel so it works with the new bootloader, but we'll have to wait and see.
the CM10 dev just wrote that he already got CWM flashed on the JB bootloader. He is trying with the new kernel, to get it boot on JB and Ics

[Q] [4.1.2] CyanogenMod 10

Hello guys!
Just installed 4.1.2 on my Samsung SII and just love it, so it's time for my TF300T to get the update to.
After some searching i found that [OFFICIAL][4.1.2] CyanogenMod 10 Nightlies is the only on out there, or am I wrong?
Problem is I belive I am on JB bootloader. When I got my Asus I updated ICS stock to JB via OTA when I got the prompt, after that I unlocked the device, rooted it and installed TWRP and now running CleanROM 2.5 with CleanKernel. (have also runned Hydro 4.1).
So the questions i kind of simple: Can I install CyanogenMod 10 on my Asus taking in mind what I told you earlier?
Thanks in advance!

No, you cant. Till now there is no CM10 for the jb bootloader, but xplowild is working on it.
I reccommend the OC Rom with untermensch kernel. Runs fast as hell.

help with flashing cm 10.1

soo i have baked bean rom on my tab right now witch is a unoffical cm10.1 i think and i havent updated it in a long time so i think i should switch to cyangenmod. now i looked at cm10.2 on xda first and i noticed jb bootloaders that you would have to flash with odin, i dont know how to do this, for cm 10.1 should i just have to flash the stable zip and gapps??
I am running the stable release of CyanogenMod 10.1.2_p3100
I downloaded the .zip file and gapps for 4.2.2 and pasted both to my sdcard.
Then I went to CMW mode
cleared the cache,files of previous ROM
flashed the CM10.1.2 stable release for p3100 zip
after that again I flashed the gapps for 4.2.2 zip
and rebooted my device. Now my tab is running it perfectly.
Procedure is same, Be sure to download the correct zip for the correct model number (mine is p3100) and the gapps for 4.3 (because cm10.2 is running 4.3)
You can browse gapps by below link

If you're coming from Jellybean, there's no need to flash JB bootloaders prior to flashing CM 10.1 or 10.2.

ok thanks xD just recently I got my hands on a galaxy s cappy and in order to get gingerbread and up roms I had to flash gingerbread bootloaders, if I didn't it would screw up the phone so I thought this was the same way with my tab.

10.1 is JB that is why you don't need to flash the JB Booloader for flashing 10.2 which is also JB.

I've experienced the first screen on my tab the first time I tried the Easter egg on SlimKat. Never had a problem since... does the Easter egg persist to do this?
Swyped from my P3110 running SlimKat from the XDA Premium HD app!
happened in all roms :\

It happened with all kitkat roms i have installed on my p5100 (omni , mokki, cm , sonic hd )
I think that tab 2 10.1 hardware is not good enough to run kitkat animation on this resolution or screen size
Note : it worked perfectly on my samsung s gti9000
No Logcat = No Problem

if i forgot to update the bootloader before install cyanogenmod, do i have install stock rom and initiate the process again or just to update above the cm 11?

Nope, you should not need to install the stock ROM if the current ROM is stable enough for you to download the updated recovery. Once you have it downloaded, update the recovery. Then maybe do a complete wipe/factory reset from the recovery, then reinstall CM 11 (or any other) fresh.
