Ok, so im new to the game...
What do i need to do to back up my current STOCK rom, and then how do i flash a new one like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743769
Like i said new to the game, this is my first android phone, i already did the one click root, that was easy enough.
A step by step would be nice, or a link to a step by step, its mostly the lingo and what not i dont get but anyways thanks in advance.
Wrong forum to ask this but.
1) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734164
Follow directions there
2) You're able to make up backups and flashing new ones is right there on the instructions.
***Installing***
boot into recovery, apply update.zip ( ClockworkMod Recovery )..
1. Install Vibrant4.zip
2. Reboot

im in the same boat, anyone care to help? not iliterate, just need to know the steps, im pretty good about teaching myself about them... im more curious about the themes. but any help would be great
what game?
to back up,
1. root
2. download rom manager
3. back up rom
I have much more detailed steps in the sticky of the General section (which is where this should have been posted.... correction, it should not have been posted because the Sticky says to read my first post before posting a question). Not intended to sound harsh, just informative.
Hi,
I've been going through the following rooting guide for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wi-Fi only.
[ACS] [How to] Root, Clockworkmod, Flash Roms, Unroot, Tips (11 videos) 3/14/12
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1462961
I've successfully proceeded through the guide up until I need to utilise the CWM-based Recovery tool v5.5.0.4.
When the CWM-based Recovery tool loads my screen continually scrolls down so the menu is blurred out.
From my research & querying the forum I found a related comment. This can be found from the rooting guide thread linked above - page 3 from a member called bugs9477. He states that he also had a scrolling screen & believes there is a compatibility problem for some versions of the tab.
As I've a novice to Android tweaking on this tab I'm not willing to continue until preferably qbking77 responds or an experienced forum member advises me on how to proceed forward from my problem.
I currently have a model number GT-P7510. If you require further information regarding my specific tab please ask.
Thanks in advance.
Just follow bugs9477 guide
Thanks MapleSyrup.
I followed the guide from bugs9477 & downloaded ClockworkMod_Recovery_v5.5.0.4_P75xx.tar.
http://www.teamovercome.net/p7500/wp-content/plugins/download-monitor/download.php?id=15
I'm not sure how to uterlise this file when using qbking77 guide [ACS] [How to] Root, Clockworkmod, Flash Roms, Unroot, Tips (11 videos) 3/14/12.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1462961
The file used with qbking77's guide is called recovery.tar.md5 & bugs9477's is called ClockworkMod_Recovery_v5.5.0.4_P75xx when untared.
Can I use the untared file with Odin?
You don't need to untar the file.
I'm not sure if you're following the guide step by step.
Don't mix bugs9477's guide with S0ckM0nk3y's guide. First do what bugs9477 says and be sure that you are in stock again, then follow S0ckM0nk3y's instructions and check that cwm is working fine.
Thanks MapleSyrup. I wasn't sure if I had to go through the step of unrooting the device first. But once I did that & then went through the rooting process it worked.
Thanks for taking your time to assist me. Cheers.
Sorry to be a pain - one last question.
Do I need to keep the Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_10.1_root archive file on the SD Card after successfully completing the rooting process?

Hi thanks for looking.
I'm a new register and newbie to rooting. And I'm currently following
[ROOT ICS L9 GUIDE] Root ICS with New Lelus method & Offline Flash [11-Mar] guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173465
Unfortunately, I'm a new user register so I can't post on that message thread. So, I was instructed to post my question here.
So, I'm following the guide word-for-word from steps 0 - 8 and now I'm up to the part where it says to "When done, REMOVE USB CABLE AND POWER OFF THE PHONE."
Okay, now question:
[Q]1: For step 9a and 9b. When do I actually perform these steps:
So, currently my USB cable is removed and the L9 is power off from the above step in STEP8.
9A. says to Add lines in "hosts" file as mentioned in step 1 of this post.
So, I'm going to assume that I add the Hex-Edited BIN file and related KDZ file that I've downloaded in STEP1.
But where do I add said lines to?
[Q]2: okay so for step 9b. Start "SmallServer" as mentioned in step 2 of same post.
Where is this "SmallServer?"
In step 2 of the same post, I've already Downloaded Root_and_Flash_Guide_byCMahendra(date).zip file (attached with this post) and extract in your C-Drive.
and gotten three folders named "C:\RootLelus" and "C:\RootFlash" and "C:\shttps"
[Q]3. Okay, now that I'm just advance reading to STEP10 that asks to follow Steps 3-10. Does that mean now I have to reconnect my phone back to the PC from STEP8 and go through the steps 3-10 again, since I've already gone through it the first time around.
[Q]4. the Actual Magic.
So, which LG UPDATE TOOL is the step 11 referring to? Is this when I'm installing the driver to my PC in Step 3? Or is said LG UPDATE TOOL sometime during step 4-8?
Sorry, for all the confusing NEWBIE questions. I'm just trying to follow all the steps without bricking my new phone.
Thank you in advance for your patience and assistance.

OMGaawwdd, I'm such an idiot, I totally didn't click on that link. Thank you very much.
No problem!
OKay, sorry... another question.
So, I'm now flashing with the PHONE UPDATE TOOL and after going through all the steps and the 'MAGIC' swap. My phone reboots and when it turns on I get an error message:
[Driver Software Installatior
Device driver software was not successfully installed
Please consult with your device manufacturer for assistance getting this device installed.
OMAP4430 Device unplugged]
Please let me know what I did wrong and at which point in the process do I need to repeat all the steps again to root my phone.
Do I go back and use the [GUIDE] FLASH L9 Factory ICS/JB ROM WITH OFFLINE FIX + UNBRICK
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36351786&postcount=1
And start with STEP7 and rerun the PHONE UPDATE TOOL and MAGIC swap?
Thanks in advance.
Hmm I remember getting a driver installation error when trying to put the phone into 'software upgrade mode'. In my case, I held the 'volume up' button down and plugged the USB cable into the phone. Then I got the error notification that the OMAP driver didn't install. Yet right after this, another set of drivers installed (I'm guessing the computer took a minute to recognize the different mode of the phone?). These new set of drivers installed successfully and I was able to root with no problems.
tl;dr I disregarded the OMAP error, and rooted just fine with no problems
Have you checked if you got root after flashing? If you do have root, then you should be fine.

Protomartyr,
Ohhh..so that error message isn't the cause of my phone not being able to successfully root, huh? No, my phone still isn't rooted. Basically when my L9 is successfully rooted is when all default icons on my phone are gone right?
So, a couple new questions then.
[Q]1: Okay, I know when it's time to flash you have to hold down the volume button and then plug in the USB cable into the phone. How long do you hold the volume button down? I hold the button down until the phone turns out with the S/W flashing message and then I let go. Do, I need to hold down the button throughout the whole flashing process?
[Q]2: How can you tell if the phone is rooted? Does it look different?
I'm guessing my phone is still haven't been rooted and I'm only getting this error message.
[Driver Software Installatior
Device driver software was not successfully installed
Please consult with your device manufacturer for assistance getting this device installed.
OMAP4430 Device unplugged]
So, if the above error message isn't the cause of my failed rooting. At which step do I go back and reattempt to root my phone?
Do I go back and use the [GUIDE] FLASH L9 Factory ICS/JB ROM WITH OFFLINE FIX + UNBRICK
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...86&postcount=1

You wouldn't see a difference once you rooted right off the bat. You should see the SuperSU app in your apps list if you followed the procedure. However, having the SuperSU app doesn't mean you are rooted (SuperSU binaries must be installed as well and this requires super user privileges).
To check if you have rooted successfully, the best way is to just download 'Root Checker' here (Click Me for Link)
Once you install Root Checker and open it, you should see a notification asking for Root Checker to get super user privileges. Accept the notification and you should see 'Root successful' or something along those lines.
Let me know if Root Checker says 'successful' or not, and maybe we can troubleshoot after that?

Hey Protomartyr,
Cool, my phone installed SuperSU in my apps menu and Root Checker says my phone has been rooted. Now I just need a guide or info on how to remove the bloatware and what I can do with my rooted phone. Thanks for all your assistance and guidance.

No problem. Congrats on getting root :highfive:
As far as removing bloatware safely is concerned, you might have to ask someone else (I'm still a newbie at these things). You can remove/disable them using Titanium Backup (from the app store). Proceed with caution though, as you don't want to remove an app that the phone needs to function. From what I hear, it's safer to just disable unneeded apps (though even then you must tread carefully). Titanium Backup is also useful for backing up all your apps/system apps/user data.
As far as what you can do with root...well that's like asking how many drops of water are in the ocean You can fully customize your phone and even install a new ROM; just naming a few. You can get a better picture of what people are doing with their phones in this thread [Click Me] as well as the other LG L9 threads.
Enjoy!

According to your screenshot, you have the P769 running firmware 10g
You can root this device using the method described in this thread.
Thanks again for everything Protomartyr,
You've been really helpful. Okay, another question. So, now that I've rooted my phone. Do I now go back and turn on the Lookout Security Antivirus, that I've had to turn off during the rooting process steps? Or would I need to allows need to leave it off to keep my root active?

If only people could search before creating new threads ! There's already a thread for new HAM2 users. Why do you think someone took the time to create such a thread ?
Anyway ....
Go download the B322 update and follow the instructions in the installation PDF. After that, if you decide you're still not interested in reading before flashing, I suggest you keep using the official ROM.
Greetings everyone.
I knwo this question was probably read here on this forum many, many, many times, but knowing and stating this, I haven't been able to find a solution, even though I've read through for this problem more than I've ever read my university books, it's now 7.10 AM where I live, the sun is shining, and yet here I am, still reading and writing.
THe problem is here. I got an Xperia Z2 D6503 and it was on Android 6 Marshmellow. I wanted to install the existenZ rom, which was posted in the forum, and the troubles came. I had to ROOT and have a costum Recovery (obviously).
And so I started looking everywhere on the internet for a solution, I tried flashing with Flashtool a downgraded FTF, so that I could follow a specific tutorial that was stating so...and then, nothing. Dead end. I couldn't achieve anything. I flashed the ROM, but it was a dead end method to ROOT.
I followed another tutorial, which got me to the current state (17.1.A.2.55), and I believe it was posted by Doomlord, but the files I needed to get a costum recovery were dead.
Now I achieved to ROOT the device, following a doomlord tutorial but I need help how to install a costum recovery, a step by step for dummies edition, so that I can finally install the final existenz 7.0 and enjoy my new phone.
Thank you for your time.
Has your device passed the warranty state? If yes, I would suggest you go for the Unlock Bootloader method, which is much simpler.
Yes I did unlock the bootloader.
What can I do now ?
I tried last night to install a recovery app (apk) that was posted by doomlord...i was able to enter on recovery after a restard via that app, I started the install of the existenz from zip file that I had coppied on the phone...after that...nothing. Dead end. Bootloop.
Did you also flash the bootloop fix?
