Hey
Is there any where you can recommend a full explanation of rooting android devices and also installing custom roms to the device?
I do not know anything about this, but have been told that installing custom rom’s is a way to go, when using an android device.
and I have also been recommended the CyanogenMod way of rooting.
I would like a comprehensive explanation and maybe also tutorials for this, for a complete newbie like myself!
Thanks

The roll-up sticky in the I9100 General section contains links to everything you are looking for.
there are quite a few links in that thread, can you please guide me as to where to start, i am a complete beginner in this field!
In that post, you should be looking for anything to do with rooting. Only 2-3 have rooting in the title, so they would be appropriate places to start.
Here is a thread that you can start from, my advice is just to keep reading as much as possible.
Also most kernels/thread have instructions in the OP.
Hello, i wanted to learn more about developing android ROMs, Porting to other android versions, porting Firefox OS maybe. So i Bought a very cheap chinese tablet which cost $50, and i want to start meddling with it in some experiences.. i just needed some directions where to go..
First i wanted to know how to make a dump of my current android so i can restore it in case i need.
I already rooted the tablet, it is running android 4.0.4.
then i want to start trying to port it to Jelly Bean. i know i need some drivers but just getting a booting version will do for me. i looked at the Android AOSP about build instructions, but there was only instructions how to build for nexus devices, not an "generic build" i can build upon.
I looked at other site that gave me different instructions but i believe that they are for porting roms other than compiling from source.
Any light on this path is appreciated, thanks
There is no need to make such useless threads directly search xda and read and learn there are dozens of threads stating the tut.
Or directly go to chefs centrel
Rather than creating mess.
Hope u understand.

Hi, first of all I apologize if this kind of thread is against the rules.
I just made my account here and I want to learn more about rooting, custom firmwares and stuff. I was interested in formatting my phone, and install Android Lollipop (newest version, which is 5.1.1 I think), but searching through the threads in this forum is leaving me confused. Could anyone please point me to the best tutorials on how to root my S3, and how to install Android Lollipop 5.1.1?
Again, I apologize for my noobish brain. I literally just entered into the world of phone rooting xD
Thank you for your time.
