Read patiently before attempting anything.
Else every chance you ll brick the phone.
And dont expect help across different forums, say if you start considering X forums' methods and later on be asking help over a different one.
Please search and read before making threads. Thread locked

difference between android development and original development is simple. android development is roms basically with a slap on theme on it and original is well original.
read this thread here for better explanation between the two
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1175660
as regarding unlocking bootloaders you do not have to as it is already unlocked..all you have to do is flash a cf-root kernel from chainfires thread.
here are links to help you better

above link is the chainfire thread to root and the bottom link read that first to get a better feel of rooting

Hey guys, i'm a noob to the rooting/flashing rom world. i was going to wait for ICS to officially come out on att, but i'm tired of waiting.
my question is, do i need to root and then flash flappjaxxx rom? i see that in the descriptions, it says:
-Rooted with SuperSU included
does that mean i can just follow his instructions and my note will be rooted? or do i need to root first, and then flash?
thanks for any assistance!!
Did you see the sticky at the top of this section labeled "all in one noob guide"??? I think that may have what you're looking for. If you can't find it, you probably shouldn't flash. No offense meant by that, it's just that most problems people have and most bricks are caused by a lack of reading and following directions.

The Flappjaxx rom is already a rooted ROM. What you need to do is flash CWM using ODIN.
Pls refer to the "HOW TO" guide in the dev section. Everything you need to learn is there.
everyone's gotta start somewhere. thanks guys!!

That's right. But just a word of advice... before asking, always remember to do the reading first and research. Then if something doesn't make sense to you....thats the time you ask.
Yes, everybody does need to start somewhere, and that somewhere is reading as much as possible.

Please reply quickly as i really want to install this rom QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE ASAP
Find the CM10 thread in Development, download the rom & put it on your internal/external SD card (or use the Odin version if there is one if you prefer). Either way, follow the install instructions on the first page of the thread to the letter. Done.
No need for anyone to give you numpty instructions here when they're already in that thread.

i have know idea if its this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2036229
if it is
how do i install it cause it says : First time installing CyanogenMod 10.1 to your Galaxy S II, or coming from another ROM:
- Make sure you're NOT RUNNING A KERNEL WITH THE MMC-SUPERBRICK-BUG. If you're unsure, flash this ClockworkMod-Recovery using Odin/Heimdall.
i have know idea what that means
please give me a noob guide
Search and read for yourself. There is absolutely no need to ask this kind of questions, because the info is obviously already out here.

Seriously, no offence but the info you're looking for is pretty easy to find. Just use the search button and read the threads/stickies. If you don't know what you're doing, reconsidder if you're really are going to flash a custom rom.

Stop been ridiculous. There is plenty of info and guides your just been lazy and want spoon feeding.
This question has already been asked AND ANSWERED a million times over but you can't be bothered to look or learn.

These people should read, read and read more, for at least 3 days before even attempting to flash a rom. Would prevent a lot of Bricked phone topics :/

Please dont be mad, im a noob. Link the easiest way to install custom rom on this device. I bought this phone in Norway so i guess its the international version. Are there supernexus 4.2.2 for this phone? Can I get EVERYTHING back to stock if something failes and I have to send it in to repair? What happened with my s2 was that powerbutton failed so I could not flash any other kernel or rom. I suck at rooting etc on android, because I think when I was jailbreaking my iphone back in the 3gs days, you could always get it to factory settings with plugging it to pc and do restore. Can I do this to this phone with a toolbox or something? Please post here I have to go now, will check this thread later.
Understanding everything and browsing this site is very hard to me, please understand. I have apex launcher so it looks like stock jellybean but its not so smooth as I want it to, so I think i have to install a custom rom. It must be stable and easy!
I'd love to help but you need to learn the forum rules before you start posting topics. Why don't you check out a few of the sticky threads first and you'll probably learn some new things about when and where to post these questions and heck you might even get many of your questions answered haha.
right first thing to do is read up on these forums on rooting then once you have completed that read again The golden rule to remember is NEVER wipe your DATA from recovery! other than that you should be safe :victory:
use this recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995002 which as support for sideloading should you get into trouble.
I'm sorry, but I don't understand why you guys that are here and have full control can't link me a thread or something where this is discussed, and then I can post questions there. This place is so advanced so it's hard for us noobs to come in to the scene. I'm good to follow step by step guides and thats it Before I have followed guides on youtube because noone here could give me an answer, but I want to learn a little on how to probably do this because I'm scared to **** up my phone so I cant get it to stock again. I dont care if a rom fails or something, but i always want to come back to stock if you know!
There are guides in the development section of this forum. I suggest you look there as this is a self help forum.

Thanks, will check into it What roms are you all using?
edit: oh and please someone answer me this. If im gonna root-kernel-rom, what is the best way to backup so I can get back to the OS and kernel I have? I dont care about photos apps and sms, just want to go back to software if it fails.
is firmware the same as kernel?
Something is missing in your formula root-(Flash Recovery)-kernel-rom. And in the new Recovery you can do a backup and only there. You can go either for TWRP or CWM recovery.
And if future, if you say "Thanks", better hit a Thanks button under post than write it your reply
Good tutorial about flashing from A to Z
Goot FAQ of HOX+ <-- Check Q2 for the Thanks button

If i flash a BTU firmware, then update it via Kies to jellybean, will it brick the phone or is it safe? Has anyone else done this?
Your telephone would explode because you did not used Q & A Thread, and you did not bother to use search function.
Have you ever read XDA rules? Please do. Do not open new thread for each question. Most of questions (including yours) are already answered.
I dont want to sift through 176 pages on the Q and A thread sorry.
Anyone answer please?
You can always use search function.
Most people are using it with good results. It's not that hard and I assume you are grow enough to use it.
But if you somehow cannot find it, then you can add a post on Q&A Thread your question and someone will answer you. At right upper corner you will get info at Notifications: that there is a reply.
fair point, my bad.
Please Search before create a new tread

no it wont brick your phone if done correctly(there are how-to threads about this, no further answers will follow here...)..
xda search is your friend and also is google - try to search on your own a bit and if you don't find anything, then you open a new thread -- here are more then 5mio users, someone does have your problem and there is a discusoon going on about that for sure..
no need spam more posts - read forum rules first!
yes it will brick it. So wait for kies.
Ive google searched loads for EE branded firmware and it just finds my own threads. Thats why im asking here but it keeps getting ignored so i have to keep asking cuz surely someone knows
