Given that you are recognized contributor, I am surprised that you did not look into general section. We have threads for different things. Anyway I will try to answer you questions
1. You need to download full zip of 2.2.0 and flash that. You can restore to stock. Or simply backup your current oos using twrp, restore only system and boot, you will have stock.
2. Yes, here is the link
3. cm12.1 by master awesome is pretty stable.
4. Rooting/flashing does not void warranty for oneplus, however if you damage anything, I am not sure if it will be covered.
P.S. always have backup of stock and efs. Do not miss this step.

It's written in OnePlus policy that if your manipulation ends with a lost IMEI device, it's not covered for example !

Did you flash the official 2.3.3 ROM from LG or any custom ROM based on official 2.3.3 before coming to void.#forever r 1.6.15???
P.S: Why do you need to give a donation for getting help??? If you want to donate, donate to the fantastic developers out there in the development forum.

its much better to go back to froyo' root your phone' install CWM 3.1' do a NANDROID BACKUP' flash the ROM & KERNEL u want but ALWAYS REBOOT after every flash..
after rooting your phone, i highly recommend to INSTALL TITANIUM BACK UP PRO & UNINSTALL the other FACTORY APPS (unnecessary apps) on your phone before doing a NANDROID BACKUP so it wont eat too much MB's on your memory card
hope that helps

Hi, I will be getting this phone today (i9100 unlocked) and have a couple of questions on how to proceed onwards. Any help would be greatly appreciated
1. What is the best firmware and rooted kernel for me to go on?
I want the absolute simpilest way to root my phone (total beginner) and I don't know what firmware I will have when I receive it, I also don't know if I should stay on a gingerbread firmware or go to ics? I also don't care if it is official or custom as long as I'm not sacraficing stability. If possible I would like a rom that is good for battery life. I also want to root my phone in the safest way. There are so many tutorials I didn't know where to start
2. What are some of the essential rooted apps and how do you install them? Through superuser or market?
3. What are the risks involved with a standard flashing/root because I'm getting my phone second hand I don't have warranty.
Thanks for all your help!
Edit: I just say a sticky saying not to ask what roms are the best so I'm sorry if I broke a rule. I just literally have no idea where to start, I've never even used android before. I've found so many methods of rooting and roms but most seem outdated. I would just like someone to point me in the right direction of the up to date way. Sorry if I'm really not supposed to ask!

Superuser is not used to install apps, you would either download them from the market or manually install the .apks

Rooting your phone would void the warranty anyway and bricking is probably your biggest risk.

Yes. There are dozens, if all you wanted me to do was provide a link to a more comprehensive guide, why don't you just learn how to use Google for yourself?

Believe me, I tried, but there are so many options, also, I've now decided to opt for a locked virgin i9100 bcause it was 50 bucks more for a new phone with the warranty, so what's the best way to unlock one? I think I recall a free app.
As i asked, anyone could give me any advices? Just all causes of the bricks? I read,the forum as well as i can, there are many many many topics, but i dont want to make a stupid mistake ... thank u in advance guys and gerlz

Well, just follow the exact instructions the developers give when you flash something And always make a Nandroid back up first.
Furthermore: check for which phone models the roms etc. are (I9100 or anything else you have), to avoid flashing something bad.
If you're afraid for the eMMC brickbug: read the threads that are made for it for info about that.
Sent from the Matrix
The emmc brick bug only happens on stock kernel when wipe data is selected just flash any other kernel before doing anything else and then your safe. Don't flash a ROM for any other phone including the i9100G double check before flash the file name is usually .............i9100
Honestly ? Don't flash anything in the first place. Leave your phone stock & enjoy using it.
If the thought of breaking it frightens you, leave it alone.
Nandriod backup can't save you from hard brick. RTFM (or thread) is the only safe path if you can't stop the hacking itch, and don't be a hero to be the first one to try something new like leaked ROM. Good luck.

But there's always a risk, so in fact it's a matter of minimizing them. If you want be totally risk free, then you indeed have to leave it stock.

I have rooted my phone with fake recovery, i want to install a speedmod kernel. I have stock recovery. Is it needed to install manually cwm first?? @Hardcore is writing that cwm is included, but im not sure that its written into this kernel or i need to download the cwm too, but where? There is no link in the topic So all i need to flash the kernel through the stock recovery and i'll got cwm and speedmod and done or download cwm from somewhere first and flash kernel through the cwm?

You can go for either one of them...i use cwm but its personal choice..now how yo flash cwm on your phone..just search the forum with your phone name..every detail is out here..you just have to search.after flashing cwm just take a backup of your current rom to be safe in case something goes wrong and flash a new one.search for custom roms for your phone in the forum. The procedure for flashing it will be written there only.

Ok sir ill go with twrp.. Pls answer my questions above one by one if its ok.. What should i do right after rooting? What should i back-up? How to back-up? If installed another rom, can i still access my apps? Will the apps remain on progress? or it will be back to start again (as if newly installed). Thanks a lot!
After install the recovery, make a full backup (the recovery have that option, but I dunno where is it in TWRP).
If you're going to install a ROM, surely you'll need to make a factory reset (another recovery option), so all your apps will be lost, however, you can make a backup of your apps (and/or its data) using some app like Titanium Backup, and restore the backup after install the ROM.

hm.. thanks for all the replies.. how partitioning? when should i do it? ive read some posts about partitioning so i think its important, is it or is it not? thank you i really appreciate every reply.
It depends of your phone and your usage habits. If your phone have few space to install apps, or you will install many apps then maybe you will need more space, this is the purpose of partitioning.
How to do it... well, you need to make the partition in your SD (you can do it from the recovery, or from your PC using any partitioning utility) and then, to use the partition, you'll need to install an app like Link2SD (you can install the scripts used by Link2SD if you prefer, but for the newbies is recommended use an app instead).
Ok sir, im learning a lot.. How about making NANDROID Backup?

I've just started to play with custom roms 2 days ago and nothing went badly wrong just yet With some precautions (the backups) and attention to the instructions you will do just fine Make sure you get the correct roms for your phone, because my first attempt to flash a rom was from a different phone model Nothing wrong happened, just an error message, but its a good example that you should play attention to the names and versions of the files!
good luck
