Big Question - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello people, this phone; gsmarena.com/micromax_a110_canvas_2-5088.php has all of the same characteristics as my phone; fastcardtech.com/HDC-Galaxy-S3-G9300 , and yes my phone has 854x480p resolution.. anyway.. I have found this article; andro-park.org/2013/03/custom-kernel-how-to-overclock-micromax-a110-canvas-2.html in wich there is posted custom kernel for that Micromax a110, I want to install it on my phone (I have rooted my phone and installed ClockWork Mod Recovery, also I have done 3 backups of system) .. But still I am afraid that if I install this Micromax kernel on my phone.. it just might Brick it..
I am doing all of this because I want to use RAM Expender, and for that I need swapp enabled kernel (and I do not know how to enable swapping on this kernel; github.com/leopesto/kernel_mediatek)..
Does anyone have any suggestion? Should I give it a shot?
Regards,
Boocy.

Anyone??

Micromax A45 Stock Rom Dump Needed.

Hey guys. Am very new around here so, am just gonna start off by thanking everyone here who've helped me so many a times.
So, here's what happened. My younger brother owns a Micromax A45(Rooted and Cm 5 installed). He, By mistake formatted the SD card while in recovery mode. And since then the phone doesn't boot up. When attempted it just stays on the boot page, the logo superfone punk repeats in loop but it doesn't take another level.There was a backup of the stock rom which got formatted with the SD card. I've seen posts here of ppl having Rom dumps but how can flash a phone which doesn't respond when connected to a computer? If anyone has a back up of the stock rom please share it with me.So that I could paste and do the recovery part through Cm in recovery mode. I'd be forever grateful.
Thanks in advance.

Although the problem I had then had been fixed but I'd be happy to have the stock Rom for when crisis dawns on me.
Also if you have any custom Roms except the Xtreme Mod 1 & 2 versions, for micromax A45 I'd be really thankful.
Thanks in advance.

thanks to the ones that are going to help me.
if there is exact the same tread can you send me a link ( i looked for 10 minutes but dident find what i was looking for)
Hey You can have any game in your U20i ,there is only one problem that you have ,that is were you able to play a game in your mini pro! Rooting your x10MP does not delete your sd data (but may your phone data, if you upgrade to another firmware and root, will delete phone data ).
heres the link for rooting- forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950324
And another thing please go through x10MP section before asking this kind of questions!

Hey, bro!
First of all, there are no stupid questions, weŕe all learning here .
Rooting, in itself, doesnt let you play more Games/Apps.If you want to use more and especially newer apps, you will have to install a Custom ROM on your device, commonly known as flashing. A custom ROM is a is an android operating system that is different from your latest "official"(made by SonyEricsson) OS. Custom ROMs for our device are very practical, because our latest official Android version is 2.1, which doesnt support many apps. Currently, the best working custom ROMs for our Phone are the ones based on 2.3 Gingerbread.
To get the very best out of your Phone, you will have to unlock your bootloader (which is slightly risky) and flash a custom kernel, which is also part of a new Android OS(tutorials you will find in the following link).
If the procedure of unlocking your bootloader is to risky/difficult for you, there is another alternative: to flash a ROM based on your preinstalled("stock") kernel. For this you HAVE to root your phone, which doesnt have any risks and isnt difficult, install xrecovery (a program to install new ROMs) and then flash a "stock kernel based" ROM. Everything else you need to know is in this Links:
All custom ROMs and Tutorials for xrecovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1588192
For unlocking your bootloader:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462278
PS.: You wont lose any on your sdcard and phone if you just root your Phone. If you flash a new ROM, you will lose the data on your Phone, but not the data on your sdcard.

4 : Any suggests about the procces? Many of you have done this lot of times , so you have tricks that will help you for a safe root / install of rom /kernel
5 : Any way of backup the correct rom in case of fail? I tryed CMW recovery and this **** show me an error when starting the procces of backup haha I read on forum this happens because of stock ROM and Kernal , So i will not need backup , in case of fail , i will just download the files from samobile >odin > and done right?
6 : in any case ! My phone will work on my carrier right? i will need any edit / mod to work on gsm networks etc?

1. Against forum rules to answer this. Read the sticky.
JB is not necessarly faster, it depends on how you use your device. Yes the software is an improvement in some cases but, as said, doesn't mean that it's faster.
2. You can root with custom kernel, and if you flash a rom they always come with a kernel. JB kernles are free from brickbug, the only vulnerable version was 4.0.4.
3. Read 2
4. Rooting process? C'mon there are thousands of root guides all over the internet (especially XDA).. if we spoonfeed you the appropriate information, you wont learn much. So go search for a guide yourself, they all fit for different people.. and one of them will fit for you
5. CWM is the best way to backup, it literally backups everything. Yes, it will work much much better on custom kernels.
6. Yes your phone will work on your carrier even if you install custom roms.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH ! I feel more ready about modding my phone now thanks to you ! For now i dont have other questions !
forgot to ask ! how may i install multiwindow? I know i will need jelly bean , but what exacly version? and how i can find the needed scripts? thanks again !
Multi window isn't officially available on the S2.....there is at least one custom ROM which offers this, but you'll have to research it.....
Hint....look for the sticky thread for a list of ROMs and scroll to stock or Sammy based and you'll find it at the beginning of the alphabet lol......

running out of phone memory after installing custom rom

Sir,

But now i m seeing that i have only 25mb left in my galaxy y dous gt s-6102. Sir plzz help me i am in very panic situation dnt know how to deal with it. Plzzz help me ASAP.
Thanks in advance.

Help if I can
That sounds like a very frustrating situation! I have some experience flashing ROMS on different phones, but I am no expert. I am not familiar with that specific phone, but if its like other Samsung phones I am familiar with there is a detailed, listed procedure for flashing a ROM. Usually there is some type of system partition format or factory reset involved to remove files that may not be compatible with the new ROM. I suggest searching this forum for your specific model, then for a post with a step by step instruction to flash a ROM. It may be you missed a step. At the very least, you can try to reflash with confidence.
