Yes its pretty much the same steps. However PLEASE read the instructions in the original post of the dev thread.

T-mo has a service but I dont know if it will work on CM based roms. I suggest backing them up to the sdcard and importing them back after flashing. Plus google contacts will back them up.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] KotsChopShop:
^ +1 I was gonna say, just employ the Google option as it automagically restores your contacts when you sign in

and don't let all these responses to your queries confuse you, it really is easy to do, people just have a tendency to over complicate **** in their head.. that and they can't follow instructions lol - just do the step by step and you'll be right as rain.. the only major decision you really have is TWRP AOKP or CWM AOKP
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Manumission:
Just wanted to put these two screenshots up to show that it *is* possible to get good battery life with AOKP (I'm currently running Whitehawk's CWM version). Obviously, this isn't heavy use, but unless your phone itself is wonky, you should be able to get through an entire day with moderate use, or more.

I'm new to TWRP, so when updating AOKP, do I need to uncheck inject twrp? Or can I just flash it straight?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
From what I can tell, the battery consumption of this ROM is comparable to that which I was seeing on various incarnations of Valhalla, both with the supplied kernel and with AntonX's kernels. I suspect most people, when then get a new ROM "play around" with it a lot more than a ROM they have had for a month or two. I know that I'm messing with my phone a lot more right now, so I can't say with any confidence much more than "not terribly bad" or "not amazingly good" for battery life.

As a side note, I've never seen much more than 9-12 hours of run time from a 1650 mAh battery on any SGS4G ROM on either of the physical devices I've had the way I use my phone. While it is "fun" to see people that can claim a day or more of run time, I think that it is stretching it to make statements like, "unless your phone itself is wonky, you should be able to get through an entire day" without a qualifying statement like, "if you use the phone the way that I do." It's like gas mileage, or brake pad, clutch, or tire lifespan. Trust me, if you live in San Francisco, you're going to get very different results than someone living on the flats.

The Lockscreen targets custom app 1 and 2 are not working properly for me. The custom app 2 shows up where the phone app is normally and the custom app 1 doesn't appear at all.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Manumission:
And while it's "fun" to respond to what people say, it's also fun to apply reading comprehension skills - because I did include a "qualifying statement", namely "with moderate use".

I was responding to people claiming that they had massive battery drain doing essentially very little with their phones, not people who sensibly wait for a bit to make a judgment on battery life.

Set custom app 1 to unlock. I use 5, unlock as 1 and sound as 5. The other 3 show up as I want.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Agreed, and I apologize for my harshness.

If you aren't getting comparable battery life with this ROM to other ROMs with a similar pattern of use, you should dig down a little to understand what the issues might be. A "clean" flash and careful restoration of apps (and not system data, except for a few, select "green" items in Titanium Backup) to start (especially if you are seeing only a couple hours of battery life). Looking at System Settings > Battery > (tap on graph) to see wake times, and then perhaps something like BetterBatteryStats to see what seems to be responsible for the wake locks may be helpful.

Yep TWRP works! I've been running this rom for a week or so and really can't believe how amazing my phone has been operating, definitely the best one I've had since getting this phone. I had real issues in downtown Chicago with the kj6 connectivity and decided follow jeffsf's padded links (thank you!), I flashed the kj4 and it was better but not great then I flashed the kd1 and have been sitting on H and 3g all day long...beautiful. don't know if it matters but my battery life is improving, maybe because its not trying to find service all day?

I remember FB saying that Raver's Valhalla-Black had a souped-up GPS driver in it. If so, is it in the current AOKP SGS4G builds?

(To be clear, that link was to FB's modems -- all I did was know what to Search for and link them)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
I think shortbus driver had that same issue. Try re-flashing but dont wipe data. wipe cache dalvik and system manually.

This is not a ROM issue. I suggest a factory reset/data wipe. Then reflash gapp, then factory reset again. What you are experiencing is a dust bunnie left behind and raising hell in your phone. Since we cant use pledge on the file system a factory reset/data wipe is the next best thing.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Hobox10:
So I got the rom installed now, but I have an issue.

When I first installed CM9 first, i went to flash the boot.img afterwards but the Android Debugging wouldn't work. I had it checked and it says it was active, but adb and fastboot couldn't detect the device. I thought maybe it was just CM9 so I flashed AOKP afterwards but the phone still can't connect via USB Debugging. I know the usb is working because it mounts the sdcard and debugging worked beforehand.

What should I do? And can anyone make me a flashable zip for the CM9 boot.img? Or do I not need it at all for AOKP if it includes it's own?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
I think you only need the boot.img for heimdall or Odin
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Hobox10:
I really hope so. I don't like the fact that I couldn't install the boot.img though.

What's more annoying is that the connection isn't working though. Why won't USB Debugging work? Maybe it needed the boot.img?

There is no need to flash the boot.img. I would use the heimdall one clicks to get back to stock kj6 then flash the once click in that same thread for antonx's kernel and flash your rom of choice. Follow the OP to the letter and you wont have problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Hobox10:

^ he's already been linked to that, and several other necessary threads

why would you need the boot.img when you're using CWM to flash the zip - it's one or the other, not both

I gave you everything you needed.. and how I presented it was on the assumption you had half a clue of what you were doing

but if you weren't sure, and didn't know how to make sense out the comprehensive instructions included in each post, you should've asked

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Hobox10:
Because, it says to first installed CM9 before installed AOKP. Okay, so the install instructions for CM9 include installing the boot.img. So why wouldn't I think that it should be done?

To be honest, I don't really understand what boot.img is for on devices, but I know it was needed on my Rezound. On the ROM I'm running there was an update that required us to flash a new boot.img or things like Wifi wouldn't work. So the fact that USB Debugging isn't working on the phone, along with the fact that since installing AOKP the phone hasn't picked up a 4G signal, is kind of alarming to me.

For all the phone's I've done before, when there's a boot.img file included it is meant to be installed, it's not available for no reason.

--While typing this I realized that the boot.img is the kernel (I think at least). Now that I know that I see why it isn't necessary after installing AOKP. Still though, the instructions of installed CM9 technically include flashing the img, so I don't understand why you are so hostile this. Besides, it's still a concern to me about USB Debugging not working. I will check the thing about fast charge tomorrow, I don't have access to the phone as of right now.

Thank you, I really hope that's the issue and is easily resolved.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Is your native tongue english?

I would like for you to show me in that where it says to flash the boot.img.

This is the instructions for AOKP

Note the bolded, underlined and red text. The only roms that have said to flash the boot.img was CM7 and it states specifically to not flash cm7 first.

Dont try to prove a point without atleast reading and making sure you are correct in your assumptions.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Hobox10:
What are you talking about? If I was just installing CM9 and not AOKP, it would only make sense to flash the boot.img. Just because it doesn't specifically state to flash it doesn't mean it shouldn't be done. It's provided for a reason. Why would it be there if it wasn't meant to be flashed?

I can't believe how elitist and rude the xda community is, at least for this phone's forum. People in the captivate, droid 3, and rezound forum are a lot more mature. (Though no offense to those of you here who have been very kind and helpful - I thank you all). Why are you so freaking violent about a simple worry? I was just extra paranoid considering this wasn't my phone but a friend's.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mikhail777:
....statsframework... what is it?? Is it associated with akop statistics?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
It is supplied for the advanced members. And no its not meant to be flashed unless you know why its there.

Im not being rude, elitest, a jackass, troll, f-tard or any other name you can throw at me. However you were a jerk in your response. I respond in kind to how the post is interpreted by me. And your post was interpreted that way. Again when flashing a rom you need to follow the instruction given by the person posting it. Just because a file is provided does not mean it needs to be flashed.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Hobox10:
Well you interpreted it wrong, but whatever, I'm past that. Sorry for the hostile reply.

Regardless, what you just said is ridiculous. As I said before, my Rezound rom required updated boot.img's on newer versions. Features did not work without it.

But he doesn't need to put in the instructions to flash it though, because it's assumed you know that it's supposed to be flashed, and not to just ignore files uploaded for an obvious reason.

At least for all the rom's I've installed, it's not there for the user to decide to install, it's there for the rom to function correctly and has nothing to do with how advanced you are. I don't consider it "advanced" to type fastboot flash boot boot.img anyway...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] KotsChopShop:
I wasn't being hostile bro, I was being frank, but I apologize if you got that impression.. as those were not my intentions

hell I thought it was comedy that I told you it was easy, and how kats over think shiz ..then you go and do just that xD
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Hobox10:
It's fine, forget about it all. But I wouldn't say overthinking. For my past experiences, flashing the boot.img is a normal, required thing. I didn't know it wasn't required for some roms that provide it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] KotsChopShop:

Could this be implemented to improve the GPS connectivity? I noticed no one posted an answer.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
This is using the yet another gps fix posted here on xda. Raver is kinda in and out right now. If I catch him on irc I will be sure to ask him.

GPS is still wonky from what I can tell. Yesterday I was in Springfield Mo and gps was dead on but a app that uses gps was registering me in Joplin Mo. This happened for a good hour or so then it started reporting to the other apps properly. I was driving so no log was available so I did not report it.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Hobox10:
I questioned why it didn't need to be done, yes. That's how you learn - you ask questions. I didn't say anybody was wrong when they told me it didn't need to be done. The only person I really accused of being elitist was you.

That post was to explain why I was questioning it. AOKP only says to install CM9, it doesn't say ignore the boot.img file included with it. With my prior experiences of required boot.img files + the fact that it doesn't say to skip it, I thought it was needed. So when USB Debugging didn't work, I was worried that it was needed for certain features to work. (Which makes sense, because as I said before my Rezound didn't function properly without the boot.img flash) I don't see why you can't see what I'm saying.

If your on CM7 you should be able to flash like normal. CWM color doesnt really matter much after you get on a MTD rom.

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question... but I'm running out of them. lol.

If I'm flashing AOKP from CM9, do I still need to wipe data? Also, If I'm on CM9, or AOKP, and I go to flash a newer build, do I need to wipe data?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mierkat09:
Do it just in case
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eb13:
No, it's not necessary to wipe data when flashing from one to the other. Your apps that are in data will stay there too. Same if you're flashing a newer build.

If flashing from one to the other just wipe cache, dalvik, and format system

Good thing that you can't enable Fast Charge (yet)!

At this time, the kernel support for that toggle/boot option is not there. That's why the toggle isn't "sticky" and doesn't turn blue when activated. You'll see errors in your logs if you try to enable/disable it from either place in the UI.

I wasn't arguing that it should be done. I was explaining my reasoning for thinking it should be done. I'm just gonna put all this behind us and consider it a communication error.

So look at it like this. I tried to flash the boot.img but was enable to right? According to you I shouldn't flash it anyway. Which means I followed the steps perfectly. So I'm having trouble with USB Debugging even though I followed the steps perfectly.

My theory is this and if I am wrong Im sure somebody will correct me. But by attempting to flash the boot.img in download mode you modified something that never got fixed in flashing a cwm zip. There for your usb debugging was borked.
