[Q] [REQ] Tuto for noobs - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
Coming from Nexus S world I've went trough every single ROM available thanks to the very clear and simple Tuto's available in the developments section - Thanks to all the Devs and members of XDA,
Today I'm feeling completely lost with my SGS II, I'm keeping reeding every post but have so many questions before rooting my device, It was so simple on Nexus S
Devs are working so hard giving us extraordinary ROMs, and I assume many SGS II owners are juste affraid of flashing them because they do not understand all the rooting steps (like me)
A good thing would be to have a Complete tuto done by an experianced member,
If you agree please let us know

[Q] should i do it?

first of all hello to everyone, I am new to this site.
i came across this site since i have been searching for ROM developments to my phone.
i see this is a very comprehensive site with ALOT of information and i dont even know where to begin.
So i hope someone nice here will answer a few questions
First of all, is it worth upgrading to another ROM (one of these sticky threads ROM)
I've been looking at the Artemis but again im not sure what to choose.
Also no idea how to upgrade it and if anything goes wrong is it possible to backup the original ROM?
I like to upgrade since im not very fond of the original ROM, also a bit slow from time to time.
I am not a computer noob just very new to this. Hope someone will help or point me in the right direction.
hi there.
I whole heartedly recommend flashing a custom rom to your phone. I only flashed my first rom earlier this year. there are plenty of tutorials here on xda. this really is a great community.
search in the threads for MSkip's guide to flashing your first HD2 rom. Just always remember to read instructions thoroughly.
Roms are down to personal taste but I personally like the Energy series.
good luck.
I was afraid to, but now I'm glad I did (flashed like 5 times now, till found the ROM for me) Just remember to read all the ROM info and instructions carefully and for the love of God, have the proper Radio version for the ROM OR ELSE YOU WILL BRICK IT!

Hey all,
Long time lurker and crack flasher here. I have a proposition for everyone here at our beloved Fascinate forums. I would like to compile a Master Beginners Guide/ Troubleshooting Guide for everyone here on the forums. I am more than willing to take care of this and plan on putting in quite a few walkthroughs/links myself but I would also appreciate it if everyone could help me gather up everything they can find and PM me the details.
On a selfish note, I have a new Fascy arriving tomorrow from Verizon and obviously want to get back modding and romming ASAP. I was wondering if someone could show me the best walk through for flashing current roms, installing kernels, installing tweaks, installing themes, a brief description of all the commands in CWM (i.e. Formatting system. partition, etc) when to do backups, do's and don'ts and any other general tips for working with a clean slate. Thank you all in advance and I look forward to maintaining this thread and cutting peoples search time from hours to minutes. Thanks again.
MR H3LLMAN

to all the newbees really read the tutorials and posts and you will learn

Hi if you want a moderator can delete this post, but i really wanted to express my thanks to all you guys who work so hard to help everybody.
Many thanks especially to feetsonfire for his tutorial to unbrick etc, it really helped me out when, after flashing a rom, i was stuck with a s5830m with an IMEI but still no network services. I flashed his australian rompack with ODIN and yyeeeessssss, we are alive again.

We need to keep all the threads separate per Rom.
For a few reasons, it would be difficult for one person to keep up with every single Rom @sac23 has made on 1 OP post.
It isn't that difficult to sift throughout the development section and or the Q&A section.
If you have issues, questions then please find a member to ask and they'll usually be MORE than happy to assist you.
We all started somewhere, usually from the bottom and some are on the top now.
I hope this answer helped your question out, I tried to the best of my ability.
