Root Problem Flashing Roms

.HaVoC.

Lurker
I'm currently running the stock EL29 with root and CWM but whenever I try to install a custom rom (AOPK, CM9, etc...) through CWM, it says "Instillation Aborted" as if they weren't made for this phone when I know they were. What's going on?
 
It turns out that is was just the version of CWM that I was using but now I have a new problem. I flashed CM9 and everything worked EXCEPT the data connection so then I flashed AOPK and had the same problem. The only way I can get online is via wifi. How do I fix this?
 
I don't think it's the roms. I actually didn't flash a kernel so I'm using whichever one either came stock or came with the roms.
 
you need to some reading on the ics hard bricking with the cm9 and the aokp roms. have you been on xda developers web sight. they have a ton of info and the best info on the problem. it sounds like your msl has lost its settings.
 
I think I FINALLY got it to work. I started stock with rooted EL29 Odin-OC, flashed the "StockCWM-EL26.tar.m5d" in Odin, flashed the AOKP build 37 rom, flashed gapps, then flashed the FE16 kernel AND modem. When I rebooted the data was working. :D
