Rooting tweaks

[Stackprotector]

FYI, I wasn't flashing random shit just for fun, I searched the internet for tutorials. I simply followed the instructions on how to install things using Odin.

Did you create a nandroid backup before flashing anything else than a recovery?

I have everything backed using my email account. I think I can do a recovery using Samsung Kies.

Recovery == Clockwork mod and others. That is the system you boot into to flash systems and backup the system. you usually do not flash roms using odin but using the recovery.

I think this got out of hand. I'm a bit confused now, I'll see what I can do to solve this problem. If you have any advice please share.


P.S
For now reason I feel happy, may be because the first step towards success is failure

NANDROID backup == a backup of EVERYTHING, the kernel, the system, your imei files. If you start flashing a kernel without that you lose your original kernel and might not be able to revert to your stock kernel and warranty. The only possible way is to find a stock kernel on the interwebz

One of the answers seems to be the problem that caused this.

Are you using a custom ROM? What you're describing is typical when a modified kernel you are using is not suited for the ROM you've flashed.

When you flash a official Cyanogenmod nightly there is the official cyanogenmod kernel included. Please read the documentations

I say once more, read stuff on xda-developers forums. Try atleast to boot into CWM and flash a system. And after that don't touch anything until you have the knowledge:D
