I just got a new galaxy note i717 and I don't have a pc atm, and I want to know if its possible if I can put a jellybean Rom update on my i717 without a pc? If so, how? I want an upgrade from ics, Ty so much for answer and help!
Flashing CWM usually requires a program called Odin that not only enables root access to your phone but other things as well. With CWM there is no need for a computer just an SD card for safety then you can follow flashing instructions!

I suggest you take a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1740367
All the links don't work, thanks though, but is there any links that work? Thanks a million
Seriously? I just tried no less than 10 links on the page (including the ones that you need) and they worked fine. What method are you using to access xda? I'm kind of concerned that if you can't get the links to work, your phone may be the next non working thing in your life.
I suggest you spend some time reading before acting. I'd hate if your next thread is a "Help I've bricked my phone" thread. Good luck and happy flashing

hi all i just got my galaxy s2 today and have no idea where to start with putting a rom on ot anything. so any help would be great thanks
First you need to be rooted(your phone not you)and then go to the Development section and you will find a list of different ROMs.Its a matter of finding what you want in a ROM and downloading and trying each one.Usually the ROM page has the download and install instructions writen on it.You need to be rooted to have CWM.Ill leave a link to my ROM so you can see what I mean.Below the different ROM versions you will see install instructions.If your not sure what root is let me know

Spend some time using your phone to get used to It before flashing. This will give you a better idea of what you like and don't like about it.
Armed with that info you can read up on each custom Rom to see if they offer what you want.
Read read and when you think you are ready to flash read some more.

X2 read alot, play with the phone, figure things out. There is so much to learn so you don't turn your phone into a brick. Rooting means you become a superuser, you take ownership so you can customize your phone.

Thanks im sure it wont well i hop not lol
Please don't even think about flashing a custom rom or rooting your phone until you're comfortable/confident enough to do it without making posts like this.
I have seen so many people in your situation on here stuff their phone up over the last few weeks because they were in too much of a hurry to mess with their phone.
AceOfClubs (and others) has given you good advice, heed it :-|
Read the CFRoot thread until you are so confident with rooting the phone that you could do it in your sleep, and then root your phone with the CFRoot kernel that corresponds to your current stock kernel. Not before.
From there, read the various development threads about different roms/kernels, get to know the various features/advantages of each (and ask questions if necessary...about the rom/kernel itself, not the process of flashing same) and then when you've settled on a rom or kernel and you're completely confident about the flashing process, flash it.
Doing this will mean you'll get it right the first time. This will result in:-
A) You not posting yet another "OMG mah fone is teh brikked helpz !" thread.
B) You not having to do without using your phone for x days (weeks) should you mess it up.
Clear ? Good

Root is changing the kernel in your phone to give you super user access which is needed to flash ROMs and firmwares.Also along with flashing there are other things to read up on like an EFS/IMEI file backups which are vital,also nandroid and Titanium backups.As you can see there are alot of good people here willing to help with good advice and all are correct in saying that you shouldnt rush into things.Take your time,read up and dont be afraid to ask questions.Play with your phone and when you know it well enough and have seen enough threads on what and what not to do then you can take the first step and root.First read up on rooting then EFS/IMEI backups and why they are needed.The rest will come in time.Id rather see you here asking questions and not in another thread saying "Help I just bricked my phone!!"
I have clockworkmod recovery. I dont have the stock rom. Please help!!!
I need the stock rom .
Thanks in advance
Are you trying to remove clockworkmod?
If you use the search function, or just browse the development section for 12 seconds, you can find the stock rom that you can flash in cwm, or an ruu that can be used to get the device to stock as well.

I'm disappointed at the OP for not searching before posting this question. Such an easy question to answer. In fact I'm more than certain that instead of posting this he/she could have searched and found the answer much faster.
I'm closing this now.
hope someone knows what to do. i just rooted using zedomax's root kernel on the galaxy s2 root site. now when I try to turn on wifi I cant get it to turn on. I even tried going to cwm and wiping everything but wifi still wont turn on.
that stuff is not supported here. Go ask them.
and btw nice multi post. reported.

i'm sorry I didnt know that. you dont have to be a ****.
I suggest you do what's necessary to flash to UCKH7 GB and start over. (Search the forums or Google with "xda" following your search)
If you want ICS follow the instructions in the stickies!

How is that being a ****, You went to a different site, used their guides and files. **** broke, So you come here? that makes no sense.
want help, use files and guides from this site.
and BTW, the other thread is the one i reported. I didnt call the cops on you, I let the mods know that there is something that needs their attention.

The problem here is you failed to read the rules. You just made an account here and accepted without reading. That is highly frowned upon. Please reread the rules for XDA and then you might understand the response you got.

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.

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.

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 :/
