Hi guys,
With i.e. Franco kernel installed, will I be able to have official updates on stock ROM?

No.
To further elaborate, any changes to /system will render updates useless. A custom kernel, having root, etc. You can however flash a stock ROM over your current install and it'll essentially have the same effect as updating.
So what would you suggest - in case of me going to root it and use custom kernel and dalvik, should I go fully custom or at least stick to atock rom and eventualy update it with fastboot?

I recommend fully customized. You'll have complete control over your device, be able to do things like multi boot ROMs through MultiROM, use the latest GPU drivers and the custom dalvik patches and kernels you are referring to.
It depends what you wanted. There are pretty rooted stock ROMs as flashable zips. This would be a Mich better (and easier) method than official OTA updates
Buy also, try custom ROMs too. There's a lot of variation out there.

The only way I was able to do it was to Flash to PRIME
All the roms for the TF are stock o.o There is no Honeycomb source, so there aren't any custom built roms.
In other words, the custom roms are actually stock roms, with tweaks. I think if you just used the one-click root method, there's an included option to flash back to stock only.. or am I just not remembering things correctly?
Have you rooted yet? If not then just rooting gets you to a stock rooted rom. If you are rooted and on an older version of stock or another rom you could install the .6 rom and then install the .9 update. That is what I did.
I am 99% stock, just changed the SystemUI for the stock Icons.

Always wipe when flashing a new ROM

CWM right sir? Thankyou!
Sent from my GT-I9003 using Tapatalk
In CWM, yes.
Once you've booted in CWM you have a few menu options. One of them is wipe, where you'll be able to wipe data (applications and user data, = factory reset), cache and dalvik cache. Wipe all three, install MIUI ROM.

I have been out of the android game for a while and have only just got the nexus s 2 days ago but am now running ICS. Could someone explain why the OP would need to root his phone? As I remember you unlock the bootloader and flash CWM without the need to root.
Yes you do not have to root, but it wouldn't hurt. Optional.
Follow the leader @corythug
Thanks all of you!

Hi, I wouldn't recommend running 1.54GHz on a daily basis, for most Nexus S's it's just not stable.
But lucky for you, KelLMSKing's MIUI and Brainmasters MIUI are both nice and smooth at 1GHz, and you can allways go to 1.2 or 1.3.
Good luck mate.. ;-)
PS. Most custom roms come with superuser preinstalled. But check the rom description.

I cant find any kernels with 1.3 sir
Sent from my GT-I9003 using Tapatalk
There is a Trinity 1.3 ghz kernel.
There is no need to root first. It actually makes no sense at all unless you want to make a backup of your rooted stock rom. Otherwise you don't root the rom just to wipe and flash a pre rooted rom in the next step.
I have a stock xoom wifi us version. It say their is a update available for my system. I go to update it and it go thru the process and then restart. But when it restart it is still on 3.2 and it keep pooping up saying that their is a update available. What is going on is their something I need to do different. Should I just root it and but custom rom on it ?

However, to answer your question, you should just install a custom ROM. They are nicer.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
install a custom rom.
Have you ever rooted it, or flashed any custom roms? I think that can interfere with OTA updates.
Either way, all you have to do is install a custom rom. I recommend the EOS ICS 1.0.0 rom. Check it out here.
Nightlies are better and have more features.

No! Nightlies are different
Only use nightlies if you know what it is. I wouldn't recommend it to someone who has difficulties updating his stock rom...
Getting the update message on EOS 1.0.0 now. I will agree this ROM is much better than stock
Hey everyone,
New to the crew, and blown away by how helpful and knowledgable this community's members are. Hopefully I get smart soon so I can contribute!
Q: If i'm running stock ICS 4.0.4 on the canadian skyrocket, am I able to flash a custom kernal that allows for changing boot animations, cpu control, and various other tweaks, and how would one flash only the kernel and not the rom? I think i'm one of the few people who doesn't completely abhor the tw interface.
Thanks in advance,
Rob

Yeah. Flash cwm with Odin, put su on sd card, use cwm to flash su. Then you are rooted. Wipe cache and dalvik cache, then flash the kernel in cwm.

Thanks for the reply! I should have mentioned that i'm rooted and have the latest cwm touch installed already. I guess a better question would be which kernal would be recommended in this case?

you just need to find a kernel that is ics compatible, download it to your sd card, boot into cwm, clear the cache and dalvik cache, then nav to the kernel zip and flash it. I would suggest taking a look at a couple of vincoms stickies for noobs a the top of the skyro dev forum, theyre a wealth of knowledge for us new guys.

Any ics kernel. Depends if you want bln, oc, uv. If you want those use mohans cymbaline, it's the only one we have with those options. The other kernels will allow uc and boot animation support, the basics.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
thank you! I went ahead and educated myself on the matter, and am really enjoying mohans embryo 4.1 with the cymbaline kernel. Its touchwiz base probably helps the phones stability, and the s3 features are pretty neat. I also recommend the build.prop tweaks linked from embryo's dev page.

Hi, what's the best most popular/stable custom rom image? one that's based on marshmallow 6.0+?
Or better yet using the stock android that allows root, which i'm guessing requires a pre modded flash image.
Is this the correct way to root? http://wccftech.com/flash-and-root-nexus-5-on-android-6-0-1-mmb29k/
thanks
Yes sir should be good. There is many to choose from Pure Nexus, Chroma, or CyanogenMod.
Stability is real good with Cataclysm is you can still find it.

1. Read again and again
2. Flash again and again
3. Keep the one that fits your needs
CM based roms are pre-rooted so you don't need to flash SuperSU. BTW the mentioned guide uses outdated information. You should use XDA tutorials instead
