So i still cant get my phone rooted.
I have searches all over this forum and find many threads. I have tried many of them and nothing works. For normal people like me mutch of the words and explanations developers give are to complex to understand. I hardly know what a bootloader is, or a cmw file. And even a harder time finding out where and whitch files to download.
Is there not anybody out there who can give a step by step walktrough with links to what to download and how to use it for my kind of version.
I just want to root my darn phone to let Cyanogenmod take it over and make it happy again Any Mod suggestion would be great to.
Ps: i easly rooted and use Cyanogenmod 10 on my Galaxy Tab 2 so i'm not totally retarded
You rooted a galaxy but dont know what cmw is?
Anyway, all instructions are found in the sticky threads. More especially, read the second sticky thread in that section. All instructions ahve been given in exact detail there...
If you are usnsure what the words mean I suggest you read up on them as if you dont know what to do you can damage your phone.
As i said i'm kina a noob. And instead of just confusing me more why don't you or anybody else just try to link me to a guide that works.. As i said i have tried many of the guides in sticky treads and some links there are dead and others dont work.
I have updated to latest ICS and heard that i should be carefull so i dont brick my phon..as the reason i try to get help here. I found a easy guide for my tab where there was a walktrough wit links to the software i needed to downmload and use. And that is what i need here too.
So instead of complaining about how unknowledge i am cant i just get some help instead???
If you would tell us what you tried and where you stuck, maybe someone could help you.
Sticky thread in general section have valid links, as far as I know.

Y dont u unlock bootloader or install CWM and get CM9 or CM10 installed instead of rooting and then flashing CM?
By the way CWM helps u to easily flash ROMS and take nandroid backups and restore them.
So i can Just unlock bootloader and use av rom without rotting at all? This would be great because i only wanted to root it to use rom's on it.
Feel like a kid with a new toy now. Gona run home and try it asap
Some ROM's(like CM,AOKP,AOSP...) require custom kernel.
Some ROM's(mostly, stock based) can work on locked bootloader.
Most(99%) of ROM's are already prerooted.
To install any custom rom, you need CWM, to get CWM you ether need to have root and after that install CWM, or you can flash custom kernel with (in 99% of them) already included CWM.
So for us mortals the problem is still on. Tried to open the bootloader with sony's own tool, but when i turn of my phone and connect usb to get to bootloader it does not findt any drivers.. Even though i downloaded it.
I just want C-mod 10 on my phone and that's it. So how do i flash the custom kernel when i ned cmw to even get it rooted? Sorry but i guess i'm a big noob at this.
Are you on XP?
if yes,
Try to install the drivers on Safe Mode and Plug your mobile while pressing Menu key.
It will install the drivers.
I'm on Windows 7. Acording to the tutorials i found when i plug my phone to usb there should come up a message that says "could not install drivers, and from there i can find them manually.. But no such message comes up and there is nothing in device manager either.
I'm totally lost here. Have tried to root my phone before so maby some old drivers are the reason for this?

So now is the question what next to get my cyanogenmod on my phone.. Am a little scared because i heard that the version i hvae can easily be bricked.
Any ideas.?
Just install custom rom using cwm and dont forget to backup first your current rom using cwm. Later if got any problem and u can just restore it back.

Dear all,
I recently bought an LGP500 and im lovin it..!!!! Came across this forum and found that there are heaps of developments thats taking place in this platform! Really wanna thank each and everyone for their time and effort in trying to improvise on the OS.
I came across [UNOFFICIAL][ROM][stable:6.5.5,testing:6.6] CyanogenMod 7.1-RC1 (Android 2.3.4) and i really want to install it (or in that case, and good GB OS) over my froyo. I have been through a lot of threads on flashing and rooting, but im still very unclear about the whole process. Im not a computer geek, and all these jargon kinda make me feel like a bozo .
As a last resort, im trying out this thread. Would really appreciate if someone could spare some time and provide a simple walkthrough from - (a) backing up the original OS, (b) on through flashing and rooting, (c) to installing this custom ROM and (d) finally restoring it if needed for warranty purposes. Im pretty sure there are a lot of people like me who has difficulty in understanding all these processes and missing out some great developments.
I hope everyone understands this and wont consider this as one of those spam/duplicate threads, where the same Qs are repeated again and again...!
Thanks a lot for any support
Yes, the same Q's are repeated yet again. But I'm in a good mood today and I'll try not to give you much flak for it.
1. Root your phone, use z4root if android v2.2, use gingerbreak (both are apps) if on v2.2.1/2.2.2.
2. Install a custom recovery, of two kinds: AmonRa or ClockworkMod. Search for these threads.
3. Boot into recovery mode for backing up your current rom and installing a new one.
I hope this is a good summary. Before asking any further questions, check out the FAQ link in my signature.
Also read some stickies to enhance your knowledge. The_error has made a very good introduction thread on technical stuff.
In android, for using custom roms, first thing is to root. Then one has to install a recovery. Then make a nandroid backup from recovery. Then wipe everything from recovery and then flash your desired rom.
I suggest you do this:
1. Instal z4root app from market and Root your phone via it.
2. Install rom manager from market.
3. Install clockwork mod recovery via it.
Now you can go to recovery via rom manager or swith off and press and hold for about 15-30 seconds home+volume down+ power button.
Once you are in recovery, you are free to fly.
so which will be the most stable rom (no over clocking) for smooth usage, simple ui, internet and good video playback support. I herd there is problem with some roms not being able to play divx files.
I say rjtchn`s cm7 has the best battery I've had
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
I can't find either z4root or Gingerbreak in the market. Searching XDA Developers I see several versions of z4root floating around, but since my Optimus V is 2.2.1, I gather I should be using Gingerbreak anyway? Pointers to the correct APK appreciated. Otherwise if I should be going the ADB route, pointers to a thread that has working drivers for the O V linked would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
OK, to answer my own Question, latest version (that I have tested works) of Gingerbreak is at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765
Now to figure out which kernel or rom to go with...
--deleted--
hey i am a noob and can't understand what to do with those softwares which are mentioned above, is there any step by step guide from starting to end??
any help would be highly appreciable
ok..i am a noob too.. so what all guys are saying is that, let me simplify:
There are basically 3 steps,
first, install a "gingerbreak" app, which is a apk (u can copy it ur mem.card and using file manager (its default in your stock android), u can install it from ur android after copying
secondly, install ROM Manager Free from Market and Install ClockworkMod Recovery from that app(dont fret about technical names..just do it), its easy as click and download
thirdly, download the Custom ROM like Mik's CM7 6.5.6 or something that pleases you and copy the necessary files posted in the Custom ROM'S page, all will be zip files...and restart the phone , By pressing vol.up+home+power button..u Will get to a different screen(that is recovery) , and make a nandroid backup as everyone says(all options are seen in the recovery) ...then clear cache..clean anything and everything..then install zip file from sd card...choose the Custom ROM and Restart (and lastly , forgot to tell you ,navigate by presssing volume keys and menu key as ok button)
..ok...maybe its not simple as it looks,,once you try..it will be easy as taking candy from a baby, thanks to all the guides and developers and all the ppl that supports it.
There are further step by step tutorials , if u search for it.. i was confused as hell too.. dont worry, U Will get the hang of it Noobz

you should really follow the instructions on the rom of your choice, but ill just give you the general scope of things:
1. root phone using one of the methods found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901247
2. after rooting, flash custom recovery:
http://androidforums.com/getitnowmarketing/221388-custom-recovery-optimus-one-p500-thunderg.html
3. download rom of your choice from the link in #1 and move it to the root of your sdcard (which is directory /sdcard)
(3.5 you can use titanium backup to backup your apps. the sdcard should stay untouched while you flash your phone but im pretty sure that your internal memory will be erased. i didnt do this and i lost all of my apps so i dont really know where this step should go but i think it belongs here. there should be a folder on your phone with those backed up apps. move that folder to your computer. i didnt do this so im not sure if this is how it goes, sorry. btw this is optional.)
4. boot into recovery (with your phone off, hold home+vol down+power)
5. make a nandroid backup
6. wipe data/factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache (follow the instructions on the rom that you chose)
7. flash (your rom name).zip
8. reboot phone (might take a while, thats normal)
the following is if you backed up your apps earlier:
9. move the folder with your apps backed up back to your phone in the exact same directory it was
10. restore it with titanium backup
someone please confirm this.
thanx guys
is there any danger of getting the phone bricked or dead??

hey it shows 1233 on benchmark,,,is it overclocked or at 600mhz?
Excuse me if this is explained anywhere and I'm just to dumb to find it, Forum Search didn't get me the answer:
I come from the Galaxy S and wanted to install a more featered ROM to my gilrfriends mini pro since I bought it to her and she saw me doing rom stuff on my phone, but only in the last time I read of fully working ROMS (last thing was the cam) because I didn't want her to bother (me) with stuff not working
Now I wanted to install SonyBread, but I'M stuck at installing CWM... I used the apk installer, and the flash tool, but nothing works, CWM nor xrecovery is booting when I hit the back key at SE logo. When I'm searching for the chargemon file, there seems to be the right one there (code says so) and recovery.tar is present. Phone is definetly rooted!
What am I doing wrong? Is it just I'm too into the Galaxy S and just can't see the obvious? And why can't I find a clean install guide for CWM to 2.1.1.C.0.0? Most ROMS say they are for this firmware and have to be installed through CWM, so there MUST be a way..
I hope this is not a to dumb question (but I really didn't find any help through search) and someone can help me, thanks in advance
first Xrecovery via AAIS (search XDA) then install cwm via xrecovery. It's really simple, trust me
use flashtool 0.2.9.1 beta to root and install busybox & xrecovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10738287
then flash cwm:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1105745
I've tried both, nothing works. I get xRecovery, but as soon as I flash CWM, I cant get into it...
I tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1105745. I press the back button repeadetly, but nothing happens for CWM...
I also tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1106146 as it looks like its specificly for mini pro, but it needs CWM to install... how am I supposed to install CWM only through CWM?? This makes no sense to me I even tried the manual copy method from this side, but it seems that CWM doesent recognize the back key pressed...
I dont know whats the problem, maybe I try to recover through SEUS and start everything over on a fresh firmware, maybe some testing messed something up.
I cant find any information, if I have to do anything else for 2.1.1.C.0.0 firmware, maybe I have to edit something for chargemon?

are you sure you successfully copied those files to the right folders, and changed their permissions correctly? i suggest you to try again slowly, step by step with extreme attention
2.1.1.Clean.0.0 now has CwM pre-installed.

Jep I'm very sure about the files and permissions, even double checked them with root explorer and file expert...
Anyway, I found THIS and -for whatever reason- it installed CWM correctly, and I was able to get around everything. Up and running SonyBread
Thanks for your help, and maybe the next time its necessary, I'll try this 2.1.1.Clean.0.0 firmware. Sounds like Darky's Resurrection Edition for my Galaxy S, and this ALWAYS worked
nice to hear you solved it, congrats
Ok so I rooted my galaxy s2 today and flashed Unnamed onto it without much a problem. I really enjoyed doing it but now I came onto XDA and on the first sticky in this forum it says in big red letters DO NOT USE ROM MANAGER....and of coarse this is what I have been using. What should I be using? And how do I change it.
If someone can please explain and remember I just started doing this stuff I would appreciate it so much!!!
I hope I wrote this correctly and people know what I am talking about. How do I use CWM if I don't use Rom Manager. What do I use beside Rom Manager?
did you flash codeworks kernel from the sticky? how are you using rom manager? to boot in cwm without rom manager, hold vol+, vol-, power till screen turns on and let go
Oh man i don't know what i did...I followed directions i found on the web, of coarse not here. So first things first i should erase Rom Manager? Next is it ok to flash code works kernel even though I'm rooted already?
i am by no means a dev, but heres a link the kernel i was talking about
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285823
other than that does everything else work? some much needed help would be nice.
can this guy just odin the cwm kernel, and reflash without any ill effects?

you did flash the right kernel when rooting right? not the i9100 for the euro version?

If you're already rooted there is no need to flash a kernel, all you need is to download and flash
the UnNamed v1.0.4 rom which can be found here: http://www.multiupload.com/9UTPJDVDZQ
The UnNamed rom already contains the proper kernel in it for our phones.
You don't need to erase or uninstall rom manager, just don't use it until a new version comes out
which is fully compatible with our phones.
If you want an app which is 100% compatible with our phones then check out this
CWM Manager which is a free app and can be found here: http://tinyurl.com/3potjte
This app is very simular to rom manager and easy to use because it's self-explanitory.
Happy Flashing!
Thank you so much this is the info I was looking for. I learn more and more stuff each day. This is much more complicated than jail breaking an iPhone.

They know you can figure it out...if they trusted in the intelligence of the average iPhone user to jailbreak their phones, there would be few jailbroken phones.
Basically, what the others are telling you is that you shouldn't use ROM manager at the moment, but that once you have CWM installed, you're good to go for installing other mods. You place the ROM files in the SDcard folder on your device, and then enter CWM recovery by turning off your phone, then holding down pwr, vol+, and vol- at the same time until the splash screen appears. You can then use CWM to install those files onto the phone.
Its possible you may need to redo your original kernel flash if you used ROM manager and it messed up CWM. If you haven't really done anything in ROM manager you might be ok.
Hi, I've spent literally 5 hours today just trying to figure out what flashing is, rooting is, and how to install ADB/SDK drivers, but still no idea what flashing and rooting are (trying to unlock my phone). I've looked at so many guides, but I came across this one that seemed to work for me to install ADB/SDK tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2199526. What I'm trying to do is basically root my phone which is a samsung galaxy s2 GT-i9100 4.1.2, I have no idea what Ice cream sandwich or that jelly bean thing is, this is pretty much my first smartphone, i've never really needed a phone. Now I'm trying to root with this guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1994544 since I have no SD card, but here's the thing, even when I go to recovery mode, and then apply update from ADB, I then open up the ADB cmd and type adb devices, nothing comes up, I don't understand why my phone won't show up? I still try the sideload command but it says cannot read CWM-SuperSU-v0.97.zip. So what I'm trying to say is, I am a complete noob at what everyone here is specialized in lol, so can anyone explain it to me?
Also, yes I have read the newbies Q&A threads and the other introduction threads, but I mean, this is the help section, so I should be able to get help right?
First of buy an sd card "there cheap" then put philz kernel on it and then update that zip in recovery. "Root done and cwm installed " search philz thread for right kernel. Look for what you have installed. You say its 4.1.2 that's jellybean. Now look in settings,about phone and look for something like lsw or lss and such and flash kernel that fits your details. If not sure post your details. main thing is to read lots and lots and lots about what mite go wrong. All well thinking yay I can root but what happens if it gos wrong? Study lots about what your going to do. Reading is easy fixing is not.

Thanks for the reply, but I understand that doing this come's with a lot of risks, I've already encountered a problem lol (everytime I turn on phone color is inverted). Right now I don't have an sd card available that's why I'm trying the ADB solution. I'll post my details since I'm not sure what step to take from here.
What I've done:
Installed ADB
On phone, checked USB debugging
(I've also tried using exynosabuse, but that didn't work)
What's wrong:
From what I think, I havent applied ADB updates (I think thats what they are) to my phone, because I connect my phone to my pc and it does not show up in devices manager with a yellow exclamation mark. So this doesn't let ADB detect my phone which isn't letting me apply the CWM-SuperSU-v0.97.zip. in stock recovery.
My details:
Kernel version 3.0.31-889555
[email protected] #3
SMP PREEMPT
Build number JZO54k.I9100XWLSM
Baseband version I9100BVLS4
Edit: I just found out that when I place my phone in download mode, and then connect it to the pc, I check device manager and I finally get the yellow exclamation mark. Now I'm really not sure what step to take, do I update the device with a yellow exclamation mark? If so with what drivers? I also know about odin now, but I need to be able to have odin recognize my phone, and then know which kernel is right for me.

What you have done is a lot risk involved get an SD card. Check with app on play store cuz I think you have rooted it. Dose it boot to recovery now? Did you install cwm recovery? Do as I said and all will be good. Flash lsw philz kernel. What is it you want to do with your phone? Flash custom ROM??

I checked with the GalaxSim Unlock app and my phone isn't rooted, and from what I think I have done, I haven't rooted at all. From the beginning it already was able to boot to recovery, by recovery you mean holding vol up + menu + power. I do not remember installing cwm recovery at any point. All I want to do with my phone is root it, so that I can unlock it.
You can use Odin?. Flash philz tar kernel lsw. Why hadn't you read how to do this? Its so simple to do I don't get it.

I already said! When I open up Odin, it does not detect my phone! I don't know why.
An observation; you've made this process so much more difficult for yourself than you need to. Trying to use ADB to do what you're attempting to do is like killing a solitary microbe with Tsar Bomba (Google it).
Buy an SD card like I said. There like £2 for a 2gb card now!! Done helping now cuz your not helping your self. Seriously buy an SD card and you rooted in max ten mins. Risk is pretty much nil.

Alright, lol thanks man i'll get one. Quick question though, my phone is automatically making the color inverted when i turn it on after a couple of seconds, i'm not pressing the home button 4 times or anything, it just automatically does it. Anyway i can fix this? or will it fix itself when i root the phone since i'll be changing the kernel? Also what kernel do I get?
Philz kernel lsw . inverted colours I have no clue about what's going on there but rooting it won't fix that. Check in settings. What have you changed/installed?

All I installed since I started this is GalaxSim Unlock, ExynosAbuse, checked USB debugging, went into stock recovery but didn't do anything so turned off phone, went into download mode but didn't do anything so turned off phone.

Your not on 4.0.4 so yes its safe to factory reset.

Alright awesome thank you so much for your help.
Andrew, you said to get the lsw philz kernel, so I searched it up in the forums, and found this:
<< 03.06.2013 - PhilZ-cwm6 v5.06.1 with CWM 6.0.3.2 based recovery >>
DVLSH (i9100T) - XWLSS - XWLST - XWLSW - DXLSD - XXLSQ (i9100P) - ZSLSJ (fixed for bootloop)

Should I download that? That was the only download that has LSW in the name in the list of kernels.
Yes lsw. Get signed zip put on ext SD or tar for Odin.if you have SD now put philz on ext SD card "a must" go to recovery and just update it. Reboot and your rooted. If boot loop factory reset then reboot. If your going with Odin get tar and flash away.

Seems like you need to install a new rom on your phone. Do you have a custom recovery? If yes, what recovery do you have?
I can give you a new rom and instructions on how to install it, but you will need CWM or TWRP for that.
Cheers,

If you don't have any custom recovery then you want to flash stock rom of your android.

No matter bro I will flash with stock rom. Please tell me process and files to use. I never ever flashed before so this will be the first time for me. I will go with your process step by step. I have pc also but it will be better by my phone only.

You need to do some research before you make things worse. You will have to have a pc. Then it is a simple matter of flashing the device which will wipe it completely.

Watch these YouTube video. You get flashing procedure in SP flash tool and download link of stock rom in video description.
You need SP flash tool to flash your android.
Download from here
Sorry for saying this , but you should be aware that Rooting a device has its own ups and down/
You should have researched more and must have had a custom recovery incase things go awry.
Now that things have gone bad , the only option you have is flash a rom for your device using SP Flash Tool.
Google for your phone model and download firmware and flash the rom
If you have any trouble finding a rom or flashing it , please feel to contact me.
