Kinda Noobie here

hello,

2 month back i brought unlocked i777 from ebay. It got rooted and unlocked with Android version 2.3.4, baseband i777UCKH7 and kernel version 2.6.35.7.

It got super user app (so i think its rooted). But the CMW is not installed. i checked in recovery mode (it show some android recovery).

So now i m thinkin of installing the latest AOKP ROM (with siyah kernel) but not sure wat to flash first.

should i root again first (root + CWM) then install AOKP. then change the kernel.

or root then kernel then AOKP ?

also i m confuse which root method should i use for installing CWM in gingerbread .

Sounds like you've got some reading to do. Look at the stickies and you'll find all the information you will need.

Next time try searching and reading up, all this info is already available, you dont have to ask.
Happy flashing.

Please make sure you're running a safe kernel otherwise you'll brick your phone.

i read that guide thread .. as my phone got Superuser, i m using the Mobile odin method [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1311081].

As i m on gingerbread, i need to use gingerbread kernel to install clockwork model. i.e Entropy512's Daily Driver or Siyah 2.6.

but i wanna intall ICS rom , so after installing siyah 2.6 should is flash with latest AOKP on it ? will siyah 2.6 support the latest AOKP ?
Install kernel with cwm.
Boot to recovery and install aokp rom
Done

Every rom install contains a kernel that works with the rom. Doesn't matter what you had before.
