Hi, as the title says. Do I have to root my phone before flashing a pre-rooted rom? In this case ICSSGS RC3.1
I have a Galaxy S on stock Gingerbread 2.3.3
Thanks in advance!
Yes or no will do...
You have not gotten an answer because your question is dumb.
You would have to be rooted to flash a rom in the first place

Mate first you can't post questions on Dev forum, second i'll help you asap before someone start attacking you because of this lol, www.sammobile.com, register, find the Odin Flasher, find the firmware you want, and find a guide on google to how to use Odin!

The best way is to root, total wipe, then flash custom ROM and not flash over the stock ROM!
Im thinkin about rooting my i9300 and I read chainfire stopped supporting custom recoveries. I just wanted to know if, using CF-Auto-Root which keeps stock recovery, i could still flash STOCK firmwares?? (different than mine since i cant officially have JB yet and i wanna give it a try). Sorry if this is a noob question, im new around here.
Yes you can.

Download fw from sammobile, reboot to recovery, wipe all, reboot to download mode and flash the fw via Odin.

Why you don't update to 4.3? I has been reading the forum and i think that it's better to the phone be updated.

Go read the sticky thread in general forum, you are missing most basic knowledge.
As above, updating to latest stock rom is recommended. 4.0 will kill the phone memory.
Don't ask for rom recommendation.
