So, after many hours and errors, the only way I could get root on wifes 10.1 running 4.0.4, was to factory reset and flash Toldo's Jelly Bean rom v8. This rom is better than stock by far, so don't get me wrong here, but I really want to try some other roms. I worry that the way I had to get root will cause issues if I start flashing new roms. I would really like to put CromiX on it if it were possible, I run 4.6.6 on my TF700 and it is too sweet! Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!

Im new to all this flashing and messing with mobiles and am a little lost so i need some help. I have a SGS2 running Checkrom V4 which im very happy with i have CWM installed and my rom backed up but i would like to upgrade to ICS. My issue is after doing loads of reading im not sure that its done through recovery and when you do have ICS on your device you don't have CWM so no easy way as far as i can tell to go back to gingerbread. I have odin on my PC that's setup and mobile Odin on the phone i just need someone to give some idiots instructions, what worrys me the most is no recovery. Is it worth waiting for a official ICS to come out that's stable with CWM or some other easy way to change roms, as i understand it some country is due it officially today.
Does someone have a idiot guide they can do for me of a decent stable Rom and how to install it and how the recovery works, i would really appreciate it, as all the threads have multiple parts that need flashing not just a simple rom there's add this and that. That doesn't worry me but i worry about becoming stuck on a ICS rom that's a load of ****, ideally i would like just a standard stock official UK rom that updates itself OTA or is stock with root and CWM but iknow we could be waiting a while for that.
thanks
Stickies...
Those are about the only thing i hdnt read.
cheers
Hi all,
I'd like some clarification on flashing a new kernel and a compatible jelly bean rom on my galaxy s2, I've only flashed it once previously through ODIN with a stock rooted ICS rom and flashed a modem file via ODIN also.
I think I need to install CWM in order to access potential kernels, perhaps siyah or team skyfire? I'm not sure I like the idea of TWRP totally in case touchscreen was damaged and I needed to be able to recover the phone in some case.
I'm not asking whats the best, but there's going to be more people who have experimented more perhaps and can offer their opinion which would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
For christmas i got a sgp 4.0. After a while i learned to root it. I attempted to flash the rom icyfusion but it forced me to flash the stock rom to recover. Can someone help? I want to flash either the icyfusion rom or the etherealrom
To start my TF-201 is only rooted. I have kept it on stock ICS 4.0.3 for a long time and now want to flash something more current. All I ever did was root it with Sparky many months ago and nothing else. Since these early days many things have changed in the development area for the Prime and I feel I should bring it up to speed. My problem is there is a lot of different instructions for unlocking and rooting for people that have updated to JB and I don't know if any of these things still apply to my current ICS rom.
Do I have to unlock first or can I just download rom manager from the market and flash a recovery without unlocking? When i go to the Asus site, I don't even see a link to download the unlock tool anymore. I would like to just flash the latest stable CM rom but don't want to mess things up because I accidentally followed misinformation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
What's up XDA,it's been awhile.
I'm trying to bring my old beast back to life so that I can pass her along to my son.
It's been quite awhile since I messed with it at all and there are so many threads here to get info from I'm alittle confused.
Right now I'm back to stock running 4.1.1 VRAMC3.
Not rooted and no custom recovery.
I'd like to make my way to pac-man ROM as that is what used to run real good on my Note.
Could someone guide me to a thread I can use to safely root and put a custom recovery on it so I can then flash pac-man?
I believe I was able to bring her out of a bootloop using this thread.http://forums.androidcentral.com/verizon-galaxy-note-2-rooting-roms-hacks/233850-how-vzw-gnote2-return-100-stock-updated-5-12-13-a.html
I'm just not sure how to proceed from here.
Any help greatly appreciated.
