1.what does deOdox mean, and whats the opposite? 2. I pickup a Theme/Rom, am I picking up the entire Rom/Oper System, or am I getting just the files that has to do with just the looks. 3. Is there a location OR Noob section the explains it all. I have more questions but Ill sever a little at a time.........
People on here will get angry with this question. They will say search the forum. I used Google. Just Google your question, that's what I did.

im not tryin to be rude even tho is going to come off like that. just google it...the answer will come in less then a sec or ask on a help sticky. dont make a new thread because you might be feeling lazy. good luck with your new hobby
Easiest way to look at them. The Kernel is the brain, it is the control point. Everything goes through it.
ROM is more of what you see, the programs and such.
While it is much more indepth that's the basics of it. Just remember to never use either that is not built for your phone.

This doesn't belong in the development section, or any. A Google search would yield results. And if you don't know the difference, you shouldn't even consider rooting.

^ I was thinking the same thing. Hence the reason I posted the question.
Goggle doesn't always explain things as well as someone with hands on experience.

Thanks for your time.
Your explanation helps. I have messed with linux kernels on my computer before, but I wanted to make sure about this because its my phone and not a spare pc during around. Lol

Well...
You have to admit, at least the subject is dead on.
Symptom of a larger issue, I believe...
We need to separate things a bit better. All the support for the ROMS going on in here seems to be confusing people?
Dev forum, release forum, support forum, perhaps? XDA is becoming a huge mess which explains the recent off-shoots.
I just got the ability to update to to 4.1.83.
Is this the update with the real new radio that enabled HSDPA+ and etc.
I currently have GreyBlur v2.1 w/ side-loading & tethering & the baseband 1.87 for the "fake enabled better 3G speeds" thing.
Can this new update be rooted, tethered, side-load, etc. Or is it like an entirely new firmware? Is it worth it to get this new update?
I am confused and cannot find a good source, sorry.... Thanks!

I'd do a SEARCH, to find out if all 39 posts were like this, but maybe I'll make a new thread?
I would just appreciate an answer then I will delete this, I am aware it is common but after search am still confused. Sorry for my incompetence on a issue I am completely new to.

Seriously... no kidding. This is litterally everywhere and all you gotta do is do a bit of reading ahead. Plus this is in the wrong section too.

Because that is no fun.
To the OP:
1) yes
2) you can't delete posts, so SEARCH for a answer first, then GO TO the QUESTION and ANSWER (Q&A) board and ask if you can not find the answer.
3) Don't forget to look at the rules they are stickied on top of the forums.
Hi guys,
I'm looking for the newest stock rom for my Galaxy S2. I know AT&T released an update. Can any one point me where I can find it?
Thanks in advance!

The new update breaks a lot.... But if you want it check out almost all roms. Most are based off 2.3.6 and fyi the facepalm is for not searching
Thanks nyamo
I will do a search.
Appreciate the clarification.

It IS a noob question and one that could easily have been answered by first doing a search. The stickies are here for a reason, it is always a good idea to scan their titles before starting a new thread so that we don't end up with redundant threads like this one. No one is paid to be here, so we really appreciate it when you first make some effort to find an answer.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
I never ran stock KK6 but hear it's worthless. ShoStock uses KK6 and a lot of people are very happy with it. Picking a ROM is very much a trial and error deal. Get a kernel with recovery and do a nandroid back up and try them all and if you don't like them you can easily return where you were. I don't know about your other question sadly. I did the Zedomax root a long time ago and don't remember if I had to do a full wipe. I'd say just bite the bullet and do the wipe. Back up all your info somewhere though.

Dropping the f bomb really isn't necessary, and is far more offensive than saying some silly remark about being literate.

Don't just make threads over and over when no one is willing to spoon feed you the answer. Read the faq's. If they don't make sense to you, maybe you shouldn't be messing with your phone

The topic of rooting is already well covered in FAQs and other sticky threads.

This is one of the downfalls of Android being mainstream. Too many people doing things they have business doing. I partly blame blogs like Android police and phandroid. They have a habit of promoting rooting with no responsibility of showing them how. They just point everyone to XDA.

hey guys. will eventually be rooting and playing around with some roms in the next few weeks such as cyanogen, speed, etc. I really want to use my amaze, dont feel like getting a new phone right now.
do you guys think I should just stick with the amaze and custom roms or just get a new phone?
These threads are getting sooooo annoying, there is already 2 threads for this
My thread and the useless thread

Damn, beat me to it
Might as well get it over with. It's personal preference. There are some GREAT ROMS for this AMAZING phone.
YOU are the only one who can decide if YOU wanna spend some cash on a new phone. Chicks dig the Amaze. Our Devs work hard to hook us up.
That said, no one cares if you buy a new phone or hang with the Amaze. If you are asking if this phone is still technologically sound the answer is YES...again depending on your needs.
Hope that helps.
My bad for not searching more in depth to see if this was asked.

Don't go there, your laziness is what prompted their response and mine. RULE # 1 is to SEARCH before posting. Merry Christmas.
Haven't checked the amaze forum since yesterday and the useless thread and 'what phone are you upgrading to etc' are both in the 10 most recent threads... Having to search would even be a stretch, simply looking at any other threads on the first page would have lead you to the right place.
