So I finally made the switch from iphone to an android device. With the Iphone you would jailbreak it. Im guessing here, you would root it and then install a rom?
What do I do if I want to install a rom and then a theme?

First of all u need to root ur device, after this u need to install/flash a kernel with the cwm recovery (u can use easily one of the rooter kernel.made by chainfire), then u can flash the rom, kernel, theme, whatever u want/need directly thru the cwm.

My advice would be to read the threads on the many kernels avaliable all have instructions on how to install... Then when you feel confident make your choice and get yourself rooted. After you understand the process and familiar with CWM and what it is used for use the same process to choose a ROM... Good Luck
In all honesty, I tried loads of roms on my s1 but I have not felt the need for it, or indeed seen any benefit to a custom rom yet, and certainly not one that will out weigh the inevitable bugs in them.
Clockwork rom bootloader is excellent for full back up and restore purposes. Frankly however with this device rooting is enough especially now there are one click solutions for it.
Once rooted there isn't much you can't change or customise. Camera apps, hacked launchers etc
Personally I have found this far more stable and much more interesting than simply installing someone else's work.
OH YES WHILST I REMEMBER FIRST THING TO DO ONCE ROOTED IS BACK UP YOUR /efs FOLDER IMMEDIATELY THIS IS ESSENTIAL!!

Agreed, but onestly i think that a custom kernel allow more features than the stock. ;-)

Ok so ive been reading the threads and rom section.
I only have 2 question left. My phone atm is on android 2.3.3. In the root thread, I want to get 2.3.5 KI3.
Can I flash the KI3 right away or do I have to update my phone to 2.3.5 and then get the 2.3.5 KI3?
Is Firmware and Modem the samething? I see there both I9100XXKX#
Once I do that, I will root my phone, install cognition rom and then the ICS theme.

I wanna suggest to u the XXKI4 (2.3.5), this is a superb firmware, u can flash directly to this version without any trouble, for the other question, no firmware and baseband/modem are two different things, u can try many basebands cause there are some basebands that works better with ur specific carrier.
So, u should root/install cwm and than cognition and theme.

Hello to all...
First and foremost... I have been a long time xda site viewer and today is the first time I have registered to xda and bought the xda premium app to support this wonderful site.
I know the first rule is to search for answers, i tried searching but couldn't find it. Mine is a peculiar question that I hope can be resolved.
I have flashed my i9100 at least 50 over times. Flashing addict, you can say. Custom and stock roms. My typical routine is to do a full wipe:
1) remove sim and external sd, format usb storage under settings
2) enter cwm, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik.
3) mount sd card, data, system...and format each of them
4) flash stock rom (KI3, 3 files version and repartition with. Pit). Repartition for a proper clean flash. I know some may disagree, so i have tried without it too.
5) flash cf-root, copy custom rom and perform steps 1-3 again. Except for wiping sdcard for obvious reasons.
6) flash custom rom and reboot, allowing 10 mins for software to sync in fully.
7) flash custom kernel of choice, current favourite being Neak kernel.
I have done this so many times i believe its the best to gauge the full potential of the custom rom, including battery life. I am really obsessive,. But I am patient enough.
However i just so happened to notice recently that after stock flash, i.e. After step 4 with stock kernel, i tried sliding the status bar for the brightness adjusting. To my surprise it works. Now that is not suppose to be the case. Especially after i have performed complete albeit unnecessary wipes. Someone please explain this phenomenon. Is the custom kernels 'hard encoding' our sgs2? If not is there another method of reformat that completely cleans your phone? I even tried ultimate Samsung cleaning script. Same thing.
Sorry for the long read. But I wanted to highlight this issue clearly for the experts here to discuss.

Hello, Before flashing any other kernel, please flash the Ultimate Kernel Cleaning Script,thats found here.. : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363738&highlight=ultimate+kernel+cleaning+script

Thanks mate... I have tried it. But let me try it again with latest version. Which is better? Ultimate Samsung cleaning script or gblitz version?

As long as you do one or the other .
But even without using a kernel x should overwrite kernel b .

Great, but i do believe for the need for a proper kernel cleaning before installing a new kernel. As clearly illustrated by my example here. Funnily enough not many developers have picked up on this. Android is sure complicated in the hands of the experienced and noobs alike.

At least two kernel cleaners posted here for a very rarely posted problem that is usuall the user not following instructions .
Kernel cleaner is not required in normal use .
Flash kernel and it changes .
Use kernel cleaner is really to make sure none of the advanced settings remain otherwise not required and i would only use if changing custom kernels .My kernel count must be over 200 by now .
Android is sure complicated in the hands of the experienced and noobs alike.
Yep what is required is more FAQS and Guides for nobody to read .
jje
I thought so too, i normally use kernel cleaning scripts when i change roms or kernels. It's just that, sometimes i do not cause not many people here seem to talk about it.
I have yet to try it and reconfirm this theory of needing kernel cleaning scripts before flashing new roms with different kernels. Once I try it out, soon, i will post again. Then i think, developers out there should pick this up as part of their recommended steps for a full wipe or rather clean flash of a new kernel, esp if changing kernel.
Keep you guys posted... Thanks jje

Hi guys,
Just to update anyone who has been reading this previously...
I have just reflashed to stock xwla4, the frankenstein version, i.e, stock kernel. With clean wipe/format, whatever you wanna call it, and still same results. Old kernel behaviour still present, i.e. Brightness adjustment via sliding status bar still present. I even reflashed a good 3 times with same stock rom, xwla4 (2times) and ki3. Also before each flash i also used ultimate Samsung cleaning script and the gblitz version. Still same issue. Can someone explain what is happening?
In case you are wondering, this is not a complaint thread but a hobby for to troubleshoot problems with our dear sgs2. So that we can all learn.
Thanks... Jk

I'm a bit at a loss... why are you are NOT expecting this? I am on stock XXKI3 (2.3.5), and have never flashed anything newer, or a custom ROM. I've always had this behavior of adjusting the brightness via the status bar. As far as I know, I had it when I was on XWKE7 (2.3.3) as well.

Hi guys...
I have a galaxy s3 and up to this point I've been pretty satisfied with the original firmware...
However, I'd like to try out some of custom made ones, but since there's a big update on the way, I want to be safe doing so...
What I mean is basically this:
Can I somehow backup my stock firmware, try out some custom builds and then get the OTA update when it's available?
I don't really care about guarantee, but I'd really like the option to get OTA updates from samsung in the future (if I for some reason want to do so).
I remember an old post, where someone talk about this, but I can't find it

Most definitely. You can find stock builds here in this forum and simply flash using ODIN to get back to stock firmware when you want to. Be advised this does wipe your data so have a good backup of it before hand.

And then it would be as my phone never were flashed and OTA and other samsung only stuff would work?
You will have to use triangle away or something like that to reset your flash counter if you want to send your phone to repair and make it appear as you have never flashed before but unless you break your phone, don't bother. And yes the other Samsung stuff should probably work.

If you flash your phone with a custom ROM for instance Resurrection Remix or Cyanogenmod you'd not directly be able to restore a stock ROM.
You will have to find one http://androidfirmwares.net that's for your region and flash it through Odin. Then you'll be able to update OTA and KIES.

Agree the advise given was plain wrong .
Nandroid restore a backed up stock rom yes yes yes .
The only but is that the backed up rom is of course rooted .

Okay... now I'm even more confused
Let me see if I get this right?
One way to do it would be to:
1) Download tools and rom (odin, CM and drivers etc)
2) Flash new cool rom
3) Donwload original samsung rom
4) Flash old boring rom back to phone
5) Use tool to reset counter (optional)
Now, my phone would like as if I had never ever rooted and flashed my rom
Is that more or less correct?

After reading over lots and lots of threads, I finally got up the courage to root my phone.
I followed these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746181
I flashed the "Kernel + Modem + Cache + Rooted UCLE5 System Package" using Odin, downloaded Mobile Odin, and then flashed the safe Siyah 4.3.3 kernel w/o mic swap to avoid bricking due to the eMMc bug. Everything seems to be working fine. I have Superuser, Mobile Odin, and CWM Recovery.
My question is what are my ROM choices and how do I go about installing them?
I'f I'm reading the instructions correctly in the thread with the rooting instructions, I only have the three options for kernels in that thread and I MUST use a w/o mic swap version.
On the Siyah thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592228, the only ROMs listed that work with w/o mic swap Siyah are Criskelo and UCLD3. Are these my only choices for ROM?
Are these the proper files for Criskelo?
Criskelo: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500891&highlight=criskelo
I can't seem to find the files for UCLD3.
To be clear, I was coming from a stock i777 with stock ICS and UCLE5. I'm now running 4.0.3, I777UCLE5, 3.1.0-rc8-Siyah-v4.3.3-nomswap ([email protected]).
Thanks for any help. I've searched and read a ton, but I just can't make sense of it all.

"You must use an ICS kernel, and it must work with Samsung firmware, and be the no-mic-swap version. If you install a Gingerbread kernel the phone will not boot."

it means that if you use an ALTERNATE kernel, which a lot of people like to do, then you must abide by those guidelines. all roms come packaged with a 'recommended' kernel....just flash one and you will see.

Would going to SHOStock3 require a wipe? I understand that upgrading to new versions of an existing ROM usually does not, but since this is a different ROM it seems like it would require the full wipe.
What is the easiest way to retain as many of my settings, etc... as possible when doing full wipes? I have Titanium Backup already. Is there another program that will help me retain more?

Once you get accustomed to it, flashing with a full wipe isn't too bad. Make a nandroid backup in case you decide to go back. And I would recommend you buy the full version of titanium back up to get the batch features, and support the developer. It is probably the most important app for those that flash regularly.
I can fully wipe and flash and have everything back up and running the exact same way it was in like 10 minutes. But I like the chance to start fresh
Hey guys. I have a litening rom 2.3.6 still... i have installed rom manager and i found in there a CyanogenMod rom. I was thinking...
Can i just download and install from ROM manager ? Pls help
Don't use Rom Manager. At all. For anything. Does not play nice with CWRecovery on SGS2. Has a tendency to break it & cause bootloop.
Flash roms/mods/whatever directly from CWRecovery, I.E download CM zip & put in on your internal/external SD card, boot into recovery & flash from there.
Okay so. I want to install disaster rom 4.1.2. But i have 2.3.6 lite ning rom. Can i just flash directly to that rom? Do i need to do a wipe data and cache ?

You should ALWAYS wipe data and cache before flashing anything. Also wipe Dalvik-cache if necessary. You need to find that ROMs ZIP file and then you can flash it. Or tar/tar.md5 if you prefer Odin. But remember ALWAYS wipe.
But i also wonder if you can directly download a JB ROM (im on ICS currently).
There shouldn't be a problem to go from ICS to JB, but i am still not sure and that's why im wondering.
Follow the install instructions for that particular rom from the first page of the thread devoted to the rom. But generally when you move from one rom to a completely different rom (as opposed to merely flashing a nightly or different version of the same rom), you wipe.

Okay got it. Another last question . I am on 2.3.6, do i need to flash to ICS first? I mean can i install a cyanogen10 directly from clockwork?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I don't think I can be any more clear than I was in my previous post, but I'll try:-
Read the instructions on the first page of the CM10 discussion thread. Follow these instructions to the letter. If they don't specifically mention that you need to flash rom X before flashing CM, then you can safely assume you don't need to. Likewise if they do have such an instruction, do it.
This goes for flashing any rom. Follow the instructions. Every rom has them, and I've never seen a rom that has flashing instructions that are not clear/simple.
