Feeling a little lazy or what? Look around. There is a custom ROM section. See anything there? We have not had a Dev who has been willing and able to take the time to make us a ROM. But please, by all means, feel free to get started. We will surely appreciate it.

I realize that we won't be able to load custom kernals and running AOSP won't be possible, but I'm a bit confused to the extent we'll be able to customize via ROMs.
I'm guessing that we will be able to go completely Blur-less, but I just want to make sure. Thanks.

The current state of hacking the atrix:
Yes, we will be able to load stock ROMS soon, but not stuff like cynagon. Those "special" roms need custom "kernels" not available until the bootloader is cracked. Even with a signed loader, it is still possible to get a stock rom. By summer, they will have gingerbread on this thing easy.
(if i mistold the information, please kindly correct me)
Thanks, that was just the type of answer I was looking for. I realized we wouldn't being CM or MIUI or other famous roms of the type, but I didn't know the extent of what's capable with the roms that we will be able to have. Stock is A-OK for me!
Okay I'm a noob and I've watched the noob video. I've tried but I just can't seem to find the answers to these questions...
I have a Bell locked SGS2. Do I have to unlock before I do any rooting?
What is the difference between flashing vs installing a custom ROM?
Are Cyanogen and MIUI roms? Are they firmware? What the heck is firmware?
Why does the Canadian guide tell me I have to download a firmware to root?
If I install this firmware (through Odin), then can I flash MIUI?
I thought I would be able to figure this out in afternoon. Guess not.
Thanks. If there's an FAQ for all this stuff that I missed, please direct me to it.
Ugh normally I would tell you to stop expecting things to get spoon fed to you, but I can't bother.
No you do not need to unlock before you root. Unlocking has nothing to do with android or system.
Flashing is the process of installing or copying a new system over to your phone. A custom rom is a rom derived from stock/manufacturer rom but altered. Be it apps removed, new kernel, or the source code was altered.
Cyanogen and MIUI roms are roms derived from google android source code but changed to make the system better. Firmware is software, it is the leader of the hardware, it tells the hardware what to do. In other words, without software, your phone cannot do anything.
Go search up on how to root, I stop spoon feeding you here. Get some independence, 13 yrs old? Great time to start developing independence. 16? Not bad, recommend you start developing now. 18? Woowhee kinda late, better late than never though. 21? Wow...
Go look at the MIUI guide to see how to install.
Google is your best friend. If you can't use it i'm sorry but this technological world is too much for you and I recommend you stick to a dumbphone or iphone.

The IMO better term for the OS running on your phone.

'cause they don't know better.
A root(able) kernel is enough already.
I need to flash a new rom to my friends phone. He will give me the phone for one night, so I don't have time to experiment. Could you guys recommend me a rom and possibly a kernel? He won't flash his phone much, so I need a rom and a kernel that will stay speedy and stable for a long time. I'm considering flashing CM10.2's latest nightlies and it will be the best if I don't need to change it's kernel so he would be able to update the rom in the settings. But maybe there is a better kernel for it, or a better rom, instead of CM. He prefers the rom to look like AOSP, not touchwiz.
P.S. As I said he won't flash often as I do, so he needs the rom/kernel to stay stable and speedy for a year or so.

I'm not asking this for my own device that I have a lot of time to experiment. I do that on my Galaxy Nexus. I don't see why they would close it. If hey delete it after I get an answer, that I understand.
These threads are not allowed because it's all subjective. If you ask 100 dudes who the hottest girl is in the world, you will get 100 different answers. Makes sense when it's put like that huh? Thread Closed

That's never a good way to ask. Don't blame others just because you didn't got any answers. Sometimes you gotta understand why it's not possible to get CFW for everything....the devs have to make it first which is easier said than done.
I got a H930, and am very very happy with it. but I would love to tinker around with the phone, and install custom roms....any roms in the pipeline???
