[TIPS] 10 Tips Before Flashing Custom ROM - Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General

Hi, everybody!
Because i'm new junior member here, i want to share some tips. If you think this post helpful, just press thanks, ok! :fingers-crossed:
Here are 10 tips before flashing custom rom :
1) Read the rom information and compatibility before downloading, like the base firmware, if your firmware is lower than rom firmware, please upgrade.
2) Recovery can be used for flashing the rom, CWM/Stock. Don't use stock recovery if the rom support only CWM.
3) Kernel used in the rom like kuro kernel and repencis. Is the kernel supports a2sd or init.d and the performance and compatiblity.
4) Features in the rom, like rooted, deodexed, zipalign, a2sd, tweaks, bravia or beats audio engine, 4wayboot, EPM, and the STYLE of the rom.
5) Performance the rom like fast and stable. You can benchmark it with benchmarking tools like AnTuTu Benchmark and feel it yourself.
6) Custom tweaks supported by the rom. If the rom support this, you can manually tweaks the rom, but don't share it WITHOUT PERMISSION by the creator.
7) This is for your phone safety if any malfunction caused after flashed custom rom, BACKING UP your current rom with CWM feature, Nandroid. You can read from this. But, to recovery don't do recovery from CWM Nandroid, because the MD5 sum is'nt same with your new rom. Just follow the step on the link.
8) CWM Recovery must be have. This link to download cwm
9) Wiping data/reset, cache partition, and dalvik-cache is required. Before do this you must follow step 7, because it will remove your apps, and your system data
10) This will be very very very required, the rom ZIP file. Haha! ​
That's all i've been shared for you. But, where's my "THANKS" everybody? If you think this helpful for you, just press it! HAHAHA :laugh:

[ROM][11/11/10][G2/DZ] NO SENSE 1.22.531.8 HTC Vision Stock with Online Kitchen (r1)

I'm pleased to present my repack of the stock ROM for the HTC Vision! READ THIS WHOLE POST BEFORE YOU START! No, really, it contains everything you need to know.
Remember that if you use this ROM, you do so entirely at your own risk!!
About MoDaCo stock ROM repacks
Unlike a MCR (MoDaCo Custom ROM) release, a stock ROM repack is as close to the stock ROM as possible. Only root / Superuser and an insecure boot image is added. The benefits of the repack are providing a rollback option in update zip format as well as providing an online kitchen to remove parts that are not required.
A MCR release of this ROM is also available!
Requirements
In order to use this ROM on your device, you must have a custom recovery image installed (Clockwork Mod).
THIS ROM SHOULD RUN ON BOTH THE G2 AND THE DESIRE Z!
Features
Repack of the 1.22.531.8 (OTA) ROM
Pre-rooted with su and Superuser Permissions by ChainsDD
Insecure boot image (ro.secure=0)
Changelog
Please see the post below this one for the changes in each release.
Installation
To install this ROM:
Download the zip file of your choice from the links below (or the online kitchen) and copy to your SD card
Restart your device in recovery mode
PERFORM A NANDROID BACKUP FROM THE MENU
Select the option to apply an update zip, and select the zip file you copied to your memory card
Upgrading
No wipe is explicitly required in order to use this ROM (unless you are coming from a 'Sense' ROM), however if you do encounter issues of any kind, it is recommended that you wipe your device and reproduce the issue before raising it here.
Downloads
This ROM is now available in the online kitchen - see the post below for details! In addition to the kitchen, a prebaked download is available.
DOWNLOAD
Thanks
It's impossible to mention everyone who contributes to the Android community by name, but to everyone out there who does great work and shares it with us all - you have my gratitude and respect.
And finally...
Details on how to donate should you wish to do so are in download topic at MoDaCo.
Enjoy!

Could someone please give a more thorough guide?
PS: I am rooted.

hehe so many questions..i see if i can help
kernel is the boot.img that is in short what makes the phone tick aka performance
Explanation:
What Is A Kernel?
The central component of most operating systems. Its responsibilities include managing the system’s resources (the communication between hardware and software components) and can provide the lowest-level abstraction layer for resources (especially memory, processors, and I/O devices)
stock sense is just framework and launcher as well. what you are using now is your stock rom. aroma is just an installer program that helps you remove or install mods that rom developers have added to it..makes things easier and simpler for us the users. go here for better explanation
full wipe again it will give you the option in aroma to do that...make sure you backup the rom first before you flash the custom rom

[Kernel][Kexec][aromaKLflasher] Kernel Lighter (KL) Beta 11[Change Kernel WITHOUT PC]

Please Don't Quote This Post,
It's Just way too big and would make any comment look stupid,
Thanks
Just When You Thought Your Favourite Dev Is Out Of Ideas... He Comes Up With This
ok so alot are complaining how we can't flash kernel away from the pc among other things (which ill get to later ), (mostly @One-X-master)
so i looked for a way to get around this and found Kexec as the answer.
Wiki said:
In computing, kexec (kernel execution) is a mechanism of the Linux kernel that allows "live" booting of a new kernel "over" the currently running kernel. kexec skips the bootloader stage (hardware initialization phase by the firmware or BIOS) and directly loads the new kernel into memory, where it starts executing immediately. This avoids the long times associated with a full reboot,and can help systems to meet high-availability requirements by minimizing downtime.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
however, with that comes managing online hardware which is somewhat problematic,
thus that prompted few people to come up with an ingenious solution called Kexec-hardboot.
Kexec-hardboot:​This works by loading the kernel into memory and force restarting the phone with new kernel.​
All of that with some ramdisk tweak allowed me to set a kernel at boot and restart to it,
avoiding having to flash it in the 1st place
Updating the kernel is called flashing..
A Flash is also what precedes Thunder
its also refered to as Lightning, Thus I came up with the name Kernel Lighter
Lighter= To Set Things On Fire/To Ignite (The Kernel)
Thus this is a kernel igniter
I Know, i've got to much time on my hand.
If you have a smart name, please do suggest.​
Special Thanks:​ @Tasssadar: For His N7 Port, which made this port a breeze and for his help in debugging.
@Alex-V: Currently using his kernel as Base Kexec Kernel.
@Androguide.fr: For his recovery-less flash method.
@amarullz: For His AromaFM Source Code.
@LlabTooFeR: For His Stock Kernel.
@faux123: For His Kernel Source.
@mkasick: For The Original Port.​

Something Went Wrong:
Let say the phone wouldnt boot during kernel update after using the app,
the best solution would be to go back to stock kernel, look at the recovery flashable zips in Extras section,
If none seem to fit, try another custom kernel
if you still had no luck booting, you should try flashing that kernel through fastboot and see if it makes any difference.​
Warning!!
Note: All the zips provided are flashable through both The App & Recovery... but I recommend recovery
BUT DON'T FLASH THE KEXEC (KL.Zeus.img) KERNEL THROUGH THE APP or Recovery,
as it will continuously boot itself over and over and over again.​

this works on both sense 5 and 4+
i had this running for almost a week now on sense 4+
and just moved to sense 5 and thought it will be a good time to release this.
The Stock kernel comes from sense 5 ROM
I know, but back to 4.1.1 is not a solution for me (Sense 5 is the dealbreaker with AOSP ROMs )
Another Question, if i change to AOSP, it will work too? or must we flash (an not realeased) Kexec AOSP kernel? (i ask not for me, i ask for everyone on AOSP with ORD xD )

you dont have to go back to 4.1.1, this will work with sense 5 rom
if you want to use AOSP you must follow the custom kernel guide.
Ahh, (my english is bad..) i think we misunderstand each other, i asked for an Sense 5 kernel.zip to try your "Flash kernel in Recovery" Solution, it exists not so many Kernel.zip with the "Flash Kernel Script" to flash the kernel in recovery... I hope its clear what i mean
this wiil be work on maximus 21 ?
Yes

im not 100% sure, but if you're looking for the zip, its in the 2nd post
the 1st time you must flash the kernel through fastboot AND zip through recovery,
later i will make an app that will work to replace kernels.
but even that all will require 1 flash through fastboot.
NOTE:
the zip contains to kernel, one that you flash in fastboot
one that will be copied to /data/boot/
the 1st is kexec which will boot the one in /data/boot/
Not clear enough xD, this (the kernel.zip) was not a request to you, it was an request to somebody to make me a flashable kernel zip, as an example repacked Alex-V kernel for Sense 5, to test this.
Its late here, so my explanation will suffer, sorry for that.

ok that was clear enough,
so far as far as i hear,
only trips kernel work with sense 5
Thanks, sorry for my poor english.
---------- Post added at 11:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 PM ----------
EDIT: Now we can flash kernel without a PC, testet and it worked.
So, we can flash kernels through the rom itself by replacing boot.img in data/boot and reboot, can't we ?

Hello . Is it possible to create a version of the set selinux permissive . Alternatively, if there is any init.d script that is changing. Greetings

Hello,
I did it and i can share if you want but you better use init.d to do this:
Create a file named 07setpermissive in /etc/init.d folder with inside this simple code, and give 755 permission to this file (with a root explorer).
Code:
#!/system/sh
setenforce 0
Reboot, and it's done (SELinux is set to "permissive"). If you want to disable it, you can tape in a terminal emulator;
Code:
su
setenforce 1
If you really need, i can share the same thing done in ramdisk.
I would be grateful for it
For many people this will be useful . I would appreciate it if he had se linux kernel permessive

It didn't work because the path of sdcard is not good in your script.
If you want to write log in sdcard (internal storage) the code must be
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo "init.d is working" >> /mnt/sdcard/initdsupport.txt
instead of your
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo "init.d is working" >> /storage/emulated/0/initdsupport.txt
I just tested it, and it works well with my moded 20p ramdisk, without need of another system mod.
You just have to use /mnt/sdcard instead of /storage/emulated/0
App you are talking about is an emulation of init.d (not real init.d, as ramdisk supports), it uses install-recovery.sh.

Hi,
I don't know if i understand well your questions.
I didn't test all possibles combos (all possibles shared stock or based stock) roms with these kernels (ramdisks) moded, i think you can understand that
You can easily test it and report the result if you want, I (we) 'll be interested to read this.
For that, you need to know how to flash a kernel (custom recovery is the best solution), how to backup the one you used before, how to boot on custom recovery with hard key for eventually restoring this one you backuped before, how to quit a secure boot error screen (removing battery) that you can meet with a bad kernel, and, of course, that root is really needed for doing all of that.

Hi 6ril1 and thank you for your response.
I probably wasn't very clear. What I wanted to know is whether I can install just the 20p kernel on phone which has a rom with an earlier kernel (like 20i or similar). Would the 20p kernel have any issues with a ROM designed for an earlier kernel. Up to know I used Seven's Androidnow HD ROM but unfortunately he has pull out support for newer ROMs due to some asshat distributing his ROMs without consent. The last ROM he had was 14 but it wasn't fully optimised. I am using his earlier 10.3 Androidnow HD ROM. So I was wondering if your 20p kernel will work ok with having to install a whole new ROM.
Cheers

Hi,
Just try it, after the usual precautions (Make kernel backup before in custom recovery. It means backup boot partition)
Flash kernel, and if it doesn't work on your rom, restore the last one you backuped, that's all
I tried it with an older lp stock with succes (these moded boot worked with older stock firmware).
As i answered you before, if you have a security error screen (following by a black screen without any possible acces) on boot with the new kernel, remove battery, reboot in custom recovery with hard key combo (=> buttons power + volume down, release when logo appears, and again power + vol down, until custom recovery acces appears), and restore your previous kernel that worked. As simple like that
Of course, prerequisite is that you have twrp installed.
