People are always happy to help you out here, but please be a bit more specifid...
What model phone do you have, what roms were you trying to flash, what steps did you take, at what point did it go wrong...
If there is no information no one can help you.

I'm sort of a noob when it comes to this I have the xperia play with CDMA. Is there anyway to crack the bootloader? If not is there any really great roms to use for it? Also can someone give me a very detailed instruction on how to flash a new rom because I really have no clue what I'm doing. I'm up to the point where I did a nandroid backup I don't know where to go from from there. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

Hi
I have an S3 coming tomorrow so decided to check out the forums and get a head start.
I have gotten a little confused, my first android phone was the xperia play which requires me to unlock the bootloader to flash roms and is also reliant on being an unbranded version.
Is this not the case with the S3? I have done alot of reading already but don't quite understand the process.
My phone will be an orange handset, so is it just a case of flashing cwm and then flashing a Rom? I'm also used to using fastboot which I believe isn't compatible with the S3 is that correct?
Sorry if this post is annoying but I need to get things straight in my head as alot of what I'm reading goes straight over my head lol
Thanks for any help

Welcome to samsung. They dont behave like morons by locking bootloaders. If u want to flash a stock rom pc/mobile odin is the tool. For custom roms u just need to get cwm to flash.

There are many roms available such as cm etc.. Don't worry you'll not brick your device as long as you follow the given instructions..

This.
Also, you should make a backup of your EFS, just in case. It contains very valuable information of your device such as IMEI and other stuff, and it's not recoverable without a proper Backup or Sammy's help in the rare event that it gets screwed. Look for a piece of software called EFS PRO on this forum. I'd like to give you the proper url, but I'm kind of busy in a crappy PC at work.
And make sure you use a i9300 compatible ROM, just wanted to make it clear because I've seen people with variants (like US) trying to flash a i9300 ROM and get it pretty messy.
Stock ROMs are fairly easy for starters.
Good luck!.-
PS: When using ODIN make sure that you don't have Re-Partition selected. I repeat, it must be NOT CHECKED. Or you'll be DOOMED.-
Hi
Why don’t you try with Omega first.
There's a flashing guide in post #4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663656
Personal I prefer AOSP ROMs with MIUI.
Good luck
Edit: just make sure you do a nandroid backup. Always good to have a backup to go back to if things don't go as hoped. Have saved me many times.

Does anyone have solutions for "error restore / data" when restore by CWM?
I notice that my backup is quite big. Its more than 3 Gb.

Your backup could be damaged. I had this problem once with my Galaxy S, so I couldn't use my backup and had to install all apps manually...

OK, this has been said a few times, titanium backup is only good to use on the same base rom... Going from ICS to JB rom means there are going to be lots of FC's and other problems... Its like installing a mac os on a windows PC... Not gonna work.... You are trying to force JB to use ICS file structure and it doesn't like it...
Hey guys..I got the sgs2 from a couple of days to try it out ..so I have a couple of questions...
What's a firmware ??does it affect flashing ROMs or kernels ?
How do I flash a kernel ?
What's Odin?
Does cwm come with the kernel ?
In case i got stuck in a boot loop and I didn't have a nandroid backup ..is there any other way to restore phone to stock ??
does every ROM need a certain kernel ??or all on the same one
Am I able to flash all ROMs that are in the development section
Sorry for asking lots of questions ..but I wanna know what I'm doing ...
Thanks in advance

I personally think it's quite weird you don't press the thanks button for TheATHEiST, but when you get an answer you like you actually do. These all are the basic questions when it comes to rooting and flashing etc., and you clearly didn't seem to take the effort to read and search for yourself.
