Install ROM manager and Install CWM Recovery, the Latest one will will be installed as u update it, atm the latest one is 5.x
Reboot into recovery and then make a Nandroid Backup. Now if u do anything wrong bla bla u can just restore your backup :_D [You Have not Flashed Baseband yet and don't do it yet!]
Now download your Fav ROM whatever it is, and Put it on your SD card, keep it outside as it will be easier to find. and ofc don't forget to Backup your Contacts and whatever you might need.
Now you are ready to Test the New ROM.
Reboot Into Recovery and wipe

nope,nothing.I'm running the program as admin,and I'm flashing the old baseband nad I hace also tryed flashing the new one....:S
Thanks for the guide, I had to redo my baseband for an CM7 Rom. Just annoying you have to switch to the new baseband for Gingerbread.
This a tricky business, I am happy with Mike's CM7 with gsm fix
I am currently using ICS Lunar pro v2.8 with venice 2.6.32 kernal and i am on the old baseband atm. Now i am thinking of upgrading to the new baseband to try new roms (AGA or CM9) and some of the games gives FC on old rom so i read the safest method to do that is via LGMDP tool and read this guide on how to flash the new baseband/radio with it. so my question is can i flash that directly over my current ROM (i knw i wont get signal) and after that flash AGA ROM ? main question is will the recovery still be there after flashing the Baseband ?? or should i follow some other guide ??
Your custom recovery will stay there, so don't worry.
btw, if you need to get recovery sometimes, use this method...

thanks for the reply.. i followed the guide to update via lgdmp and everything went good until NVRESTORE .. it showed an error "ERROR! NV Restore Failed" and the phone screen was black . i waited for a few moments and then clicked OK and the DoWNload < Select port < connected my fone again and then clicked on NV restore it restored succesfully and now fone works. Though i m not getting any signal and baseband version in ABOUT PHONE says UNKNOWN but i guess thats normal. Now going to flash AGA ROM via recovery. Hope it works
PHEW! it worked..
though that error made me kill myself!
2 days ago i restart my phone but it dont, it just flashing the touchscreen and stay so until i drop the battery, i try an update whit odin but fail... so anyone knows?(sorry for bad english)

Just boot into recovery mode and choose wipe data/factory reset. Otherwise flash new rom via Odin. Use only backfront panel of your PC to connect USB.
how can i start recovery mode because i tried all combinations and does'nt work

i cant understand what u want to say bud but theres an alternative :
IF u can access your recovery mode , flash cwm recovery , root your phone and flash stocklitev7 ...its a stock based rom ..u will like it ....and then after the phone boots try to flash your stock rom again with odin ,,,the flashing aand rooting guide is present in sga android development section .......
ohh wait mayb i can undertand what u mean .....do u have kies installed on your pc ??? kies is needed for the usb drivers needed to get your phone recognized by odin .....u cant flash a rom until that " yellow box " appearss,,,,,.....
i cant access anything because the phone doesnt start, he is just flashing, i can use only download mode, i have kies,odin etc but when i install a rom whit odin the phone its flashing again...

does flashing mean its rebooting ?
ok so u flashed a rom ???? have u flashed a new stock rom with odin ????
did u "wipe cache partition "
this u have to do in recovery mode i cant get why u cant access it is your phone GT S5830???
He meant that his touchscreen is flashing and he can't do a thing with it.
The answer is simple. Take the phone to the local Samsung service centre.
Just don't mention that you tryed ODIN, or KIES to revive the touchscreen.
im using flashing .58 via flash tool and it said - android version/kernel version:-exec'/system/bin/sh'failed: No file or directory(2)-
First you power off your phone then hold the volume down button then connect to flashtool to flash firmwares
And you need adb drivers installed, find them in the flashtool folder or just download my app (romhub.codeplex.com)

Your problem is solved now
Hit thanks if I helped
I don't get it. Why exactly can't you flash with flashtool? No PC?
If you can get into flashmode, then flashtool should work just fine.
In most cases, getting stuck on the SE logo means you've got a kernel-ROM mismatch. Flashing the correct kernel should allow the ROM to boot. Mind telling which kernel & ROM you're on?
Sometimes it happens

Hey guys
While using Rom Manager the application asked me to install clockwork mod recovery (although I had a previous version), it installed it (a newer version I guess) but then when I rebooted into recovery, I got the "emergency mode" screen for a couple of minutes. I removed the battery and put it back, restarted the phone but it got stuck at the LG logo. I tried the recovery combo (with volume-up key), and the other one (with volume-down key) but no result. So is my phone bricked ?
If repairing it requires the computer, please send me the drivers links because the ones from the LG website don't work properly for me. I'm on windows 7 64bits.
Please help guys.
Thanks.
Search it in hehappy thread he posted it there

I flashed the officiel firmware through KDZ, the device booted correctly but stopped at the "android" logo. I tried with another firmware image, same result. Then I thought about flashing cwm 5.0.2.0 with lgmdp, and then flashing a custom rom, using this tutorial here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318750 but it didn't help. When I try the recovery combo now, I get a loading screen from the recovery (a progress bar) for seconds and then the phone reboots.
Guys please help me I need to fix my phone. Any help is appreciated.

do you now how to use LGMDP???
Yes I tried with LGMDP I tried flashing a .kdz file, and tried flashing custom recovery. I'm not sure I selected the right folder, and not sure about the files for the custom recovery on LGMDP but it didn't work.
im uploading a zip inside zip it have a folder with V20I to flash by LGMDP.
you put your phone on emergency mode go to lgmdp connect to to phone and then in that window whre you put the path to recovery you flashed you will put the folder im uploading and then start flash phone when it finished it will reboots or turn phone off and you should be fine.
10m i give you link to V20I to flash by lgmdp

Flashing a kdz means stock rom and stock recovery. You'll have to re-root & re-flash custom recovery.
CWM 5.0.2.7 is reportedly buggy. Use 5.0.2.0 or better still, Amonra recovery which works flawlessly. Then you can go on to flash any custom ROM you like.
Hope this helps.
