Default Tutorial to remove yellow triangle

Hi, because I have seen a lot of people asking for this, I decide to make a quick tutorial,

(I was inspired highly by lot of post every where, and of course by this one : CF-ROOT POST 2)

Here quick step :
  • Download and install CF-ROOT through ODIN
  • Download and install Stock kernel through ODIN
  • Extract the zImage from any kernel you want (you could do it directly on the phone with Root Explorer)
  • Open CWM Apps, use flash kernel, and select your kernel, flash it
  • Done !

Let me explain now :

Step 1) Install CF-ROOT through ODIN

Here the link : CF-Root Thread
Take the better version for your rom, example: if your rom is based on KG3 kernel, take the KG3 version

CF-ROOT will install CWM Apps, that allow you to flash kernel directly on your phone without ODIN.

To flash it through ODIN, it's simple, just follow the instruction on CF-ROOT thread. In short, your PDA and select your rom, put your phone in download mode and click start.

After that your phone will boot with yellow triangle.

Step 2) Flash stock kernel through ODIN

Here the link : Stock Kernel

Same for CF-ROOT kernel, find the most accurate kernel and flash it through ODIN, tuto inside the thread too

The yellow triangle have disappear, and any root tools is still there !

Step 3) Extract a zImage

I advice to use Root Explorer to do this, you can find it in the market. You put your kernel in your sdcard (zip, tar, ...), you can try with CF-ROOT you have used for example,
Then from the phone open the file with root explorer. You need to go in "sdcard" directory to find it.
You will be able to open it, then click on the file and click extract.
It will extract in /sdcard/extracted
If the zip contain a tar, then open again and extract the zImage.

Another way, it to extract the zImage with your computer. And you can do it from a ROM too ! it's just a tar or a zip !

Step 4) Flash it through CWM Apps

Then open CWM Apps, click on flash kernel, choose your zImage (probably in /sdcard/extracted if you use Root Explorer)
Flash it, it will reboot on it, you will be in the new kernel, without the yellow triangle !

Step 5) Enjoy !

Now you can flash any kernel you want directly from your phone, even if they are not compatible with CWM ! You have just to use this method for any other kernel (from Step 3 to Step 4).

If you have any question, fill free to tell me.

If you want to download rom from my mirror, follow my signature.

If you find this usefull, say Thanks

For people for whom the rom doesn't support this method, you can follow this tuto, it should work :

You have to use ODIN (the software used for flashing) for step 1 and 2

Of course, but you need a JIG only for reselling ?

And I only used Original Android Development tools, it's a tutorial, not a rom.

I hope this thread could be stick by a modo, because, it could avoid a lot of question in a lot of thread.

I think you should start to use Google translate..
You spelled it "thought", while the correct word is "through" like the other user said
