Yes... it can be a little confusing..

Scroll down to almost the bottom of the kernel section.. You will see the gingerbread kernel's, now look for the sub section ( el29 direct boot ). Click on it. It will take you to rwilco12's repo page for that kernel. There you will have a choice between a tar file and exe.( I think, lol ) Either way, you want the tar file version.

Easy pessy.. :good:

Let me know how it goes...

FYI... when you use a mention( @ and usersname ) it will let them know you mentioned them( asked a question, etc )...but quoting them does also.

I seen you did both.. not a big deal.

But I try to keep my notifications clear because I help in 2 different forum's and can't always remember who I'm helping.. lol. So you can just use on or the other for me, I'll see it. I prefer the quote, as that way if I'm responding to 2 or 3 people ( which happens more than you would think ) I can read my last post if I need to,without scrolling around for it. I know, sounds silly, but I'm usually on my tab and more than likely on my phone,like now.

Thanks... and definitely let me know if you hit any road blocks... we're here to help.

Hi -

I've looked around for someone actually fixing the problem that I have and haven't found it yet. There are lots of people have had their phone stuck at a boot screen (either the Galaxy screen or the 4G screen) and were able to hold a combo of buttons (for me Vol. Up/Home/Power) and do a data wipe/factory reset. I have not been able to get any of the options on that screen to get me any further in my boot process. I'm resorting to installing a custom ROM, but have not done so before. Also, I cannot get access to my phone to install any necessary apps to assist in the flashing process. I can get to the ROM screen holding Vol. Down/Power and would appreciate instructions on how to install a ROM form there. I'm assuming I will download a file on my computer (Linux Ubuntu 13.04), connect my phone via USB cable and load the ROM onto my phone. I'm interested in CM10.1 (heard good things) but see that only Nightly builds are available. I've got the CM10.1 download, but am not sure if that is the right way to approach this problem. I've read through rwilco12's tutorials, but it looks like you need Odin installed on your phone to be able to do anything. Again, I don't have access to my phone to do this.

Any help would be appreciated.

I moved this here because more members( some certified geniuses )will see it.. but I will help until somebody else jumps in.

This will be tough.ive helped people before with Linux, but it can be frustrating.

First off... you need Odin on you're computer, but you can use heimdall instead if you're using a mac or running Linux on PC. ( I think )

Second.. what do you mean by ( get to the rom screen )I'm assuming you mean you're bootloader to pick between download mode/odin mode and recovery.. That screen will have two objects on it. ( the left one is recovery and right is download mode/odin mode ).Let me/us know, so we can proceed.

Also.. I suggest once we get you going.. That you flash/install a JB stock rom ( there is a gb27 rooted full restore in rwilco's repo )if you're on sprint, if not you can use a different one-click or use the one I mentioned. You will just need to change you're APNs,but I'm getting ahead of myself.

Get back to me about what screen you're on and I'll see what we can do.. if you can't get to download mode you might have to get a USB Jig and that's not a definite fix.
