I Recently Got Interested In Making Prerooted Rom For Samsung A217F.
I Saw A Tutorial Created By Wer99 & I Followed Every Single Step.
Finally I Successfully Made A Non Rooted Rom.
I Started To Do Some Research On How To Add Root Permission & SuperSU To The Rom
So Far There's No Luck At All
I Can't Use Any Custom Recovery Because I Believe Even If There Are Some Custom Recovery,
They Still Contains Lots Of Bugs
I'm Not Fimiliar With Android But Just Following Some Step By Step Tutorial Like From Wer99
I Hope I Could Get Every Possible Help From This Forum

Hello everyone.
I am new to Android and brought my first android device the Xperia X8 a few weeks back, having Android 2.1-Update 1.
From then on, I have been finding custom ROMS for my device, and finally CyanogenMod came up with 7.1.0 (Android 2.3.7), which looks quite nice!
So my question is, since I haven't installed any custom ROM before, can anybody please guide me (step-by-step) on how to install the ROM? I have rooted my phone and installed xRecovery. I have downloaded the ROM package from the CyanogenMod mirror network, for device Shakira.
My main concern is, somewhere I found, that people said to also have a Google Apps archive with the installation, to install Google services. Is this needed and from where can I find this archive?
Therefore, a detailed guide for installing this ROM (whether any additional files are required or not for installation) after the rooting procedure would be highly appreciated..
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply, first of all.
I came across this thread before.
See I know this is the basic procedure, go into xRecovery -> full wipe -> install custom zip from sdcard -> reboot.. This is right, right?
So as I said above, main concern is the Google Apps, for which the package I just found for CyanogenMod 7. How to install that, is there a option in xRecovery to do so?
Thanks.
Hello
I'm new to the whole android development
I've had my S2 for some time now and you can tell what I'm dealing with when you know I have the stock rom and haven't tried rooting it
I found this "pound rom" here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/rom-pound-rom-t2535113
there is no "Steps" tho that I can follow
as this will be my first ever time
can someone be kind enough to tell me If I can root my phone and flash this rom using any tutorial out there?
or do I need different kernel? cause it says this in the thread: " Need to flash this ROM with a cm10.2 or newer kernel for best results. "
hopefully this thread isn't against the rules of the forum

first it is not against forum rules
second it means you just need to have a cwm version 6.0.4.3+ which you get in cm10.2 kernel so flash cm10.2 first reboot recovery then a full wipe and the install pound rom
root your phone - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOaTscV92gU ( make sure you are running official jelly bean 4.1.2 xwl.x.x )
after rooting follow this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/cwm-kit-kat-compatible-t2546597 ( follow this carefully )
after completing the above two steps , you can flash the rom after you wipe data , cache , dalvik cache ... flash the rom and its respective gapps and reboot system .
if you want a kernel , you can flash it after you install the rom you want ( just make sure that is the kernel compatible with the rom and its android version )
feel free to ask anything regarding to galaxy s2 i9100 and you are in no way breaking any forum rules so ask any thing you do not understand ..all the best and happy flashing
a tiny warning after flashing kk comp. cwm
reboot to "recovery" not to system
sometimes i can be missed by newbies like me
I was told to redirect my question here. My original post is :
Hi, my name is Anthony and I have a T-Mobile S5 running the latest version of android (I think it's 5.0.1 or 5.0). I'm kinda a newb with flashing and rooting. I had my phone rooted using towel root a while ago, but I lost that root in an update and it is no longer supportive of my phone.
I'm looking to install custom roms but before I do so, I would like to make a full backup of my current stock touch wiz so I can revert to it in case I don't like the new rom. I also would like to root my phone. Oh, and before anyone tells me that I need to install Odin, I have a Mac running Yosemite.... A lot of people have told me that I need to install clock work in order for this whole process to work.
Recap advice/how to:
1. Make backup rom
2. Root phone
3. Teach me how to flash roms using a Mac.
4. Include any other important info and links for downloads.
I mainly want to install CM12, but I still want a backup rom to revert to later
Thanks, and please don't post any hate

There is well written instructions on the web already. Maybe I could find a link for you.
That would be great. I've tried a couple with no success
Just use a windows pc... borrow one its 5 minutes to root.
Use odin.
You can downgrade to kit Kat also if u want u don't have to stay on 5.0
there are not many 5.0 roms or even customization for lollipop ,you will discover that fast.

hey guys,
So I decided to install a custom rom and as I understand I need to root the phone and install a custom recovery but I don't want to brick my phone.
When I searched for how to do that for the alpha I found several methods like kingroot and ODIN.
I installed G850FXXU1COI1 manually using ODIN.
My question is what is the surest way to root and install a recovery for the alpha (850F model) ?
First of all, what is your galaxy alpha model, and yes, the first step is to install root app like super su, then you can look for custom recovery that is the most essential tool for installing custom rom.

It's the 850F model.
And mentioning the root, does the phone stay rooted even after installing a new rom ?
UP!
150 members saw this thread and not one of them has rooted his phone before ?!!
If I remember correctly:
- First instal twrp http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...overy-openrecovery-twrp-2-8-sm-g850f-t2931017
- root with chainfire autoroot https://download.chainfire.eu/529/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-slte-sltexx-smg850f.zip
- now you can install a custom rom
Good luck
Searching since yesterday and proceeding ahead is making me confused..
Few Procedures I understood some were confusing, here are my questions.
My Phone details: Check attached hardware details, image format too please.
Unlocked bootloader, yesterday, THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO ALL XDA USERS.
1. Should i proceed with twrp + root 1 click, its way to easy and no confusions here.
.2. Should i proceed with magisk, Since on stock rom and just unlocked bootloader, unsure how to proceed here..
Please guide on best option, after doing this bit work, I have many purchased apps (thanks to XDA TEAM and all contributors) which I shall try on phone..
If satisfied, or wanna try custom ROMs, I will make another question..
Thanks and appreciate the volutary hard work of this great community.
Regards,
Flash Twrp then Flash A Custom rom assuming you've unlocked bootloader to flash a custom rom then gapps then flash magisk
Here are some suggestions
Miui Pro Gsi Oreo
Aex Pie/Oreo
Bootleggers Pie
Los Extended Oreo
Pixel Experience Pie/Oreo
I only need to flash twrp (but all options comes with supersu) how to flash same, just link to topic please.
Then magisk think i will follow.
I do not require a custom rom for now, I have bought many apps from XDA which satisfys me for moment.
I am a n00b,
Unsure how to install TWRP first as cannot find right guide,
All TWRP threads (COMES WITH SUPERSU).. can i continue with same ?
Request help since confused.
