[Q] Mobile odin_cf-root

Hey guys,
When flashing a Frankenstein Rom with Mobile odin can I select to flash cf-root kernel instead of the stock one so that I will have root and CWM recovery once it finished flashing or do I have to flash the rom with stock kernel and the flash the cf-root kernel by itself afterwards?
ThankĀ“s
You should look in here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899
which is where you should have posted your question really
AFAIK you can root any Rom you flash with the app.

[Q] Odin vs CWM flashing

Hi all,
what are major differences between flashing with Odin or CWM?
Is root mandatory?
Are some cases where you cannot flash a rom with Odin but only with CWM?
At first look with odin seems to be more beginers way
Thank you.

Does not require root usually for stock Samsung roms or kernels
or CWM?
Usually for custom roms modems etc requires root and CWM install .
Are some cases where you cannot flash a rom with Odin but only with CWM?
YES as above
All the above information is found in the FAQS and |GUIDES .

[Q] Which CWM version

Hi, I am running an ics custom rom from rizdroid 19100xwlp4-19100xxlps-19100luxlp1 and I would like to flash clockworkmod to my rooted phone via Odin but not sure which version I need. Any help please or advise please.
Alan
I use Siyah Kernel which has CMW 5.5.0.4.
you can get this kernel from here:
http://www.gokhanmoral.com
Thanks, do I just flash my phone using Oldi with the Kernal or is there anything else I have to do?
If your phone is I9100 international model, just put the Siyah kernel TAR file on the ODIN PDA and flash.....
How did you flash the custom rom "rizdroid 19100xwlp4-19100xxlps-19100luxlp1"
can you give us the link/thread for this ROM
Here is rizdroid's custom rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487&page=416
I flashed used Odin, and my phone is an international 19100

my friend, this is not a custom ROM this is official ICS rom, after installing from ODIN, if you have followed the rooting method of the same thread instruction, (CF-root) you should have already a latest Clockworkmode installed in your Phone. no need of flashing again any kernels.
to checkout this just shut down the phone and press Vol-up+home+power button and hold for few seconds to appear the galaxy logo and keep pressing til it blinks and appear again then release.....you will get the CWM recovery
Hi all I did was flash the rom via Odin and I have an app that checks if you are rooted and it says I am but when I do the test that you said to do I get the Android system recovery not cwm recovery.

CF-Root for your firmware is not found so just flash Siayah from ODIN, make sure flashing file should be .TAR and selected from PDA.

Thanks mate all done now and all ok. I bought the app to clear the yellow triangle which worked also. Any tips you have for a rooting noob would be much appreciated.

The first thing you have to do after rooting is Nandroid back up and EFS back up of your phone...
Dont be after the shortcuts and tips, read as much as possible, There is no substitute for READING for COMPREHENSION.
these STICKIES will give you the knowledge about SGS2 from basic to the deepest.....
Try the N. E. A. K. Kernel with the modded cwm, works very well!

Thanks Keasbu for replying I have downloaded your Kernel I take it just flash my phone using Odlin but what about the Kernel that I flashed that Zaheedahmed gave me the link for. Also another question I want to play around flashing different roms to my phone do I need to flash a new kernel everytime.?

It is not terribly required to change your Kerenel every time you flash, the suitable kernel already packed by devs for their ROM is more than enogh for running the Phone...but further it is your choice to change the kernel after exploring the reviews and features of the custom kernels and decide whether it will give you any advantage or not....Also no need to worry about Clockworkmode it will be their already on the (allmost all) Custom rom.
the kernel which I suggested that time was mainly for you to get a Clockworkmode recovey and rooting which anable you to flash roms further
NOTE : Once you have already got Clockworkmode no need to use the Odin version of the Custom Kernels, just take the CWM version and put it on your SD card and falsh it from CWM recovery.
Thanks for replying zaheedahmed, what do you think of Keasby's Kernel is it worth flashing will I loose clockworkmode?

Sorry mate I have no personal expreance with any ICS kernels yet...
just read the threads....to find which is most popular and least problem giving....,.do you know the questian "Which is best" is baned in the XDA..
---------- Post added at 11:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------
No you wont loose the CWM, all the custom kernels are attached with a CWM recovery...that is the main goody of SGS2 kernels...
One more question if I flash a new release ics rom and it doesn't have a csc with xeu do I flash a csc xeu file at the same time as flashing the ics rom, will this work?

Sorry experts can give comments about the compatibility of such mix flashing....
But why are you so concerned about CSC, what difference is giving you XEU than others just for my information.
CSC can only flashed from ODIN, you will loose your root and you have to Root it again by flashing a Root kernel again...
Sorry I thought I needed csc xeu as I live in the UK
CSC not required if you enter network settings manually .

If you have trouble installing a custom recovery and CM, just use the CM installer. I dont think you can install CM by Odin. CM installer is the easiest possible way to install CM.
