DO NOT USE THESE WITH AOSP ROMS. THEY ARE MEANT ONLY FOR STOCK ROMS
Some modified kernels for those of you that would like to play around
If you don’t know what this is, you might want to steer clear…
I’m not responsible for you burning a hole in your pocket…
This is based off mkasick’s kexec-enabled kernel which in turn is based off the officially released kernel source from samsung from opensource.samsung.com (search for i535)
Important info
there are two methods you can use to flash these at this point in time (see below for an explanation of why):
1. use kexec (don’t ask me about this, i haven’t used it much) details here:http://www.epiccm.or…urce-built.html
2. flash over our recovery partition. do this just like we did in the root method.
a. copy to your sdcard, ie: /sdcard/boot.img
b. obtain a root shell (you’ll have a # when you are root)
c. dd it to your recovery partition: dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
this method, obviously, replaces your recovery (cwm or twrp)
in order to boot to this kernel, you need to boot into your recovery partition. the ramdisk will take it from there
two ways to do this:
a. adb reboot recovery
b. hold vol+, home, and power while phone is off

recoveries – for if and when you want to go back to having a recovery:
1. twrp: http://goo.im/devs/birdman/twrp8.img
2. cwm: http://goo.im/devs/i…35/recovery.img
flash these exactly the same way as we flashed the kernel above
FAQ:
Q: why can’t we flash this like a normal kernel on a normal phone?
A: we are not fully unlocked yet. our aboot checks our boot partition (/dev/block/mmcblk0p7 upon boot and when it doesnt see something it likes (it only likes an official, stock kernel image) we get this: http://imgur.com/Ci0gY )
only way to get out of that is to boot into odin mode and flash the stock kernel, found here:http://goo.im/devs/i…tock.kernel.tar
enjoy!
