I am really a kiddo in these matters, so i seek help from the experienced persons.
I have installed Rom toolbox pro on my phone. I want to install a rom like cyanogen mod on it . Is it safe??? Can i do this by using rom toolbox.
Also would this upgrade my phone's OS.
Please if anyone can help me then give a detailed guide and download links. Thank you all.
Yes its save to install but you have to follow the installing instructions carefully like wiping data/cache/dalvik cache/system/ in the recovery. It won't work if you don't have any official recovery installed in your phone like cwm. Hopefully you know about what I'm talking.
[*] The CM7 ROM will upgrade your Android OS to Gingerbread 2.3.7
[*] The CM7 ROM will give you options to power up you device
[*] The CM7 ROM is stable and for daily use
For a detailed guide and download links go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20782937
I think the links are outdated so here's the

Recovery: http://goo.im/devs/psyke83/roms/galaxy5/recovery/recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.2-galaxy5.tar
(Flash with Odin)

**IMPORTANT**
DON'T FLASH THE BOOTLOADER. IT'S RISKY!
I hope i could help

Hi, I'd recommend you start out by reading this guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007244
First you need to root your device, then you need to install a custom recovery, before you can actually install a custom rom.
It's a learning process, if you've never done something similiar before, but nothing too hard
Both of the 2.3 roms are imo stable enough for daily use, so I'd recommend one of them. Which one you choose is mostly a personal preference.
The holy grail of guides can be found here

Read This [HOWTO] Rooting, Installing - Android SDK, Custom Recovery, Custom ROM's
Hi Guys,
i'm using stock ROM which was updated from Samsung official store
look out the screen shoot below. i don't like to be in this ROM.
wanna go for custom ROM i heard wanamlite and litening ROMS are best could you please guide me to install custom ROM and which ROM is best.
thanks in advance.
Check out this thead from the same forum you've just started your thread in
1) There is no best rom. Try bunch of roms out until you find one you like.
2) How to flash a rom ? Read the Stickies or follow the instructions for flashing a particular rom.
How is this urgent?
Do us all a favour and make like a tree.

hey nitin Buddy, I know this is not the right place to talk to you but please check you PM. I have PM you..
Sorry guys of this Off topic.
Yeah everything ok but why to flash CWM recovery?
How do I check I have proper working CWM as mentioned?
Because you need cwm to install a zip file to your phone.
If you have siyah running on your device, you have cwm recovery. Use that.

Should I choose Galaxy S2 GT-I9100G or the Intl While selecting phone to install rom.
Can I install this ROM.please help
http://get.cm/get/jenkins/9838/cm-10-20121011-EXPERIMENTAL-i9100g-M2.zip
No. Like the link says, its a rom for the i9100G. Yours is the international version. You need to use a ROM that's built for your variant else you brick your phone. Use the search button and read ROM descriptions and instructions before installing.

Which link Do i have to select from this page http://www.get.cm/?device=i9100
Also since i have siyah kernel running , i can directly install Zip right?
Are you saying the cm10 thread doesnt have links or install instructions.
If you are lazy and cant follow simple instructions,then modding your phone isnt for you.
Havent you learned ANYTHING since the last time.
I hope you also appreciate the time Ive wasted posting in this thread and the effort I went to adding a pic to my sig..........for your benefit......lol.

The page has several Links ? I'm a noob who updates for better battery and just sticks to that ROM.
I'm also very conscious after reading a wrong file can brick the phone.
Hi all!
I would really like to install a new unofficial ROM on my s3.
Here's the question: I am currently using I9300XXEMC2, the device is rooted and I already installed CWM Recovery and Rom manager.
Can I install Omega ROM (Based on beta firmware XXUFME7) straight from the I9300XXEMC2 fw?
Thank you for the answers.
Peace and love <3
I would recommend using recovery directly. You may or may no0t need to wipe. Please have a look at the link in my signature "read before rooting" to help you understand the basics

Hi and thank you for your answer.
I red the thread in your signature, but it didn't help (or I didn't see it) for my question.
My question is: do I need to install a new BB, before flashing the rom, if I want to flash a rom based on a different BB from the one I'm currently using?
Thank you so much in advance.
(Sorry for bad english, I'm italian ^^ )
The rom is installed over the old rom. It replaces it entirely. You can flash any rom over any other rom except you may need to wipe data for the reasons explained in the "read before rooting" thread.
Roms are not based on bb's (if you mean baseband). Any baseband should work on any rom. Always backup efs (again in the thread I suggested you read). Whether the thread answers a particular question or not is irrelevant. You really need to know all of it

In this case a full wipe is probably necessary to go from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2
Thank you so much!
This is not my first time flashing, anyway thank you for the thread, I red it all, and yeah, I was talking about the baseband^^
Thankyou, problem solved, moderators: you can close this thread.
Thanks again XDA for the fast help you provide

Hey
I currently downloaded this ROM
ArchiDroid v2.4.1 (Hope its right)
And checked the FAQ on how to root
It shows the Auto CF method which seems simple but doesnt install a custom recovery
Is that fine or is there another method to root with cwm preferred. as i am used to flashing new roms via cwm
Or is odin the best way to flash this rom?
