-next questions, if i succeeded rooting my sgs i9000, can i still use the kies to update for the next official firmware, like froyo 2.2? or do i need to unroot it to make it work? gosh this thing is so confusing.

All of your questions apart from which update .zip to use have been answered many many times before.
Your question about the update.zip does not give enough information for anybody other than a mind reader to answer.
I humbly suggest you get used to the advanced search feature on this board it`s great and you could of answered all your questions yourself.

Hi, I am a noob at this but after looking around on the net for a day, I'm already confused...
OK, here's the situation, its fairly simple... I bought a brand new Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE i9305 (UK EE) but want to unlock it.
It is running Android 4.1.2 and therefore "The Trick" doesn't work as it is missing the final option...
1) I have therefore read that I can downgrade it to 4.1.1 and then use the trick...
2) or I could "Root" it....
Which of these is most straight forward. I don't mind Rooting it cos I gather it's not THAT risky...
So far, I've downloaded Odin but don't know what to do with it....I also just want to use Stock ROM and don't know where I can get that... there are too many other ROMs to choose so just want to keep it simple.
Please can someone help?? I realise other people may have asked this question before, so therefore if someone could point me in the right direction and show me a simple and easy to follow guide, I would be most grateful.:good:
Many Thanks in advance!

Just go to development thread for available custom ROM's. Each ROM's has instructions on how to flash it there too.
1. root ur phone link
2. install clock work recovery via odin link
3. flash custom rom u like link
Just don't forget to back-up your important files like contacts, messages, etc. You can also do a nandroid back-up if you want.
Good day.
I must say I am a bit shy to post a question here. Usually i stick to the moderator rules and read, read and read before I even think of posting. But I did that and was very unsuccesful. So being a noob on Android rooting/flashing/rom(ing) I have no choice to take all my heart and ask you guys my question. Please bare with me if its stupid.
I bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab S SM-T705 in Egypt (LTE and WIFI). I rooted it (CF) and flashed the recovery (TWRP). I would like to install (any newer version really) of Cyanogen ROM. But I cannot find a suitable edition. Instead I am reading news about the project being abandoned and so on. So - does anybody know how to help please? Or am I gonna be stuck with this TW forever?
Appreciate your help!

Hey, guys, I am a complete noob when it comes to custom ROMs and a friend recommended this place. I was wondering if you guys could give me a step by step guide on how to root my device and put Cyanogen on it as that is what was recommend to me. It is a UK phone if that has a bearing as well. Sorry you probably had plenty of these threads
