Hi!

I use the ROM CyanogenMod 7.2 - BroadcomCM [COOPERVE] [RC 4 - 16/08/2013]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2080065
and ThunderKernel 2.1 [UPDATE 22/10/2013]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335947
and have a few issues with this combination.

I actually wanted to use the recommended kernel for this ROM which is CM Specific Basic Kernel v3.0, but I cannot find it anywhere to download.
In the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2253010
there are only download links for version 4.0, but my phone won't boot the ROM with version 4.0 of the kernel...

I would love if bieltv.3 could offer the old version for download or if someone could point me to where I can download the old version.

Thanks!

the post is old that's why it is saying to install V3.
But V4 is better than V3 and resolved many bugs and have faster bootup.
So my recommendation is to use v4 rather than v3

Thank you for your kind replies. The only trouble is that with v4 of the kernel my phone won't boot the ROM. It always gets stuck on the boot screen (while displaying its name Samsung GT-S5830i...". (Sorry, I forgot to mention that in my previous post...) I was hoping that with v3 I could manage to boot.

However, I might have some hardware issue. I bought the phone a few days ago for next to nothing with a shattered display glass (still usable) and immediately rooted it and installed CM7.2 RC4 without having tested the phone thoroughly on stock ROM...

This problem happened with me also.
Fix (Not official but worked for me) :p
After flashing the kernel mount system and date, then flash the rom.
Then do not reboot.
Again mount the system then again flash the rom.
Then reboot. (Your Problem is solved)

If your problem is solved please reply.

I think he must experiencing the 5 seconds installation. Does your installation last more or less than 5 seconds.

The flashing of CM Specific Basic Kernel v4 takes less than 5 seconds in my case. It seems more like 2 seconds. I tried several times and it definitely is shorter than 5 seconds.

I get the following output to the screen:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Flashing Kernel...

Install from sdcard complete.
When I flash ThunderKernel the process might take 1 second longer, but also less than 5 seconds.
I get the following output to the screen:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Installing ThunderKernel...
-Copying needed files...
-Flashing ThunderKernel

ThunderKernel flashed!
Thanks for using ThunderKernel!

Install from sdcard complete.

No, I did not format in ext4, I followed this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44868197
and formatted /system, /data, /cache to RFS before flashing the kernel and then the ROM. The reason was that after the first install I was not able to download anything from the Play Store. The procedure described in the post seemed to have solved the issue.

I will try that method, but first I need to do a nandroid backup as I don't want to loose all my customization.

you have format system to ext4..becouse cm 7 is work on ext 4 system..so use multiformatter and format your system to ext4 and then flash bieltv.3 v4 kernel and then go to option in recovery there you see reboot to recovery..press reboit to recovery then you will be in biels cwm recovery ..then wipe system data and cache and then flash cm7 based ROM.. :D

and for play store 492/498 error go here and flash that zip..

Thank you very much for the great instructions. Just one question: I have permanent cwm recovery which I got when flashing the bieltv.3 v4 kernel for the first time on a stock phone trying to install -- I believe -- Slim ROM CM7.2. (Actually, I don't remember which guide I was following exactly.) Will your method work now that I already have a permanent cwm recovery or should I go back to stock ROM or stock recovery and then follow your instructions?

Sorry for the late reply, I was traveling without my laptop and wanted to back up everything before reflashing the ROM.

The good news: It worked! Great!

The only difference I made was to install the fix for the app store first and then the gapps package for CM7.2. When I did it the other way around, I had no play store on the phone.

Thank you all for your help!
