here, this method is the most succesfull for lots of people including me, you need some basic knowledge tho...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754020
and here is another way... dont know if it works or not...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=805010
on a side note. i dont know why you guys take the time to post something completely useless and unnecesary... this is Q&A forum after all, he has a question (kinda dumb but still..) if you dont have an answer then dont post anything... as my little picture says "be nice or leave".
Im not trying to be an a$$ im just being honest. we've all been there at some point and when we needed help we came to the forums and someone helped us. lets just try to do the same n_n
Thanks for the replies, even if some were a bit rude but I guess I understand the frustration.

The second one was shown not to work on like the second or third page because ROM manager can't successfully flash clockwork recovery.

Why ask here, and not in the thread you were directed to? All the experts are there, and not here.
Have you read the thread at all? The extraction part is not the most difficult part.

Hi
I am not new to technical forums. But I am new to this phone and I want to put a new rom on this phone. The current one is so slow.
What is the best rom available.
How do i put a new rom onto the phone.
Please keep it simple or point me to step by step specific instructions. Not a set of generalised instructions.
I looked at the how to thread. It was not step by step and got lost after three clicks.
specific help would be excellent.

Yes alot, after i been using a custom rom & getting it back from repair, i'd had to get a custom rom on the phone again, its to slow without if you asking me.
But that's just what I think.

@OP, you've been pointed in the right direction and escaped the usual harsh treatment for asking such questions.
I'm closing this thread. Please remember to search and READ THE WIKI before posting questions. Also, while new threads are sometimes needed double & triple check before creating a new thread. Read the link sin my signature for more info...
I really want to root it but im not a a techy type, but i know how to follow instructions. I just need a step by step on how to root it & the files needed. I do not know how to work with command promp. so please tell me all the commands i need to put in step by step so i can understand. thanks. please help & sorry for being so dumb on these things :\
I guess the thread at the top of the forum that's stickied didn't cross your mind when you made this post huh?

Honestly, not trying to be a ****, but all the answers can be found very easily if you just look at all the posts that are stickied in this forum. One of them will have the answer you're looking for. If you still can't find it, then you probably shouldn't have posted to begin with.

Been there and done that and understand where you are coming from. I actually followed the following link and it was VERY useful as it is expalined step by step http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754669
As far as the ROM he uses I cannot tell you if it is good or not but if you "flash" (unzip) [ROM] SLIDE-Reloaded v1 [9/16/10] Sense 2.1 this one it is similar to what you have now and you can slowly ease into other ones once you get used to using your phone.
PM me if I can help with this process. I am a noob myself so can't really explain a lot to you but as far as the steps go I can try and help.

well, i guess it would have been better to let you wait for 10000 years and wonder why no one here will answer your question, because it got closed by mod....
but i thought i help you by pointing you to the right forum where you probably get your answer in 15min.
sorry for being so stupid trying to help you. i promise i will never ever do this mistake again.
happy waiting here
edit: "
WARNING!! If I see any more questions or non DEV related threads...I'll delete them.. "
this is the title of the third or forth sticky thread here. they delete your thread without warning or notification. this happens often and you would wait for ever without that hint from me.

You need a root explorer and look in /data/apps.

just thought it would be easier to get my answer by some good-sensed people unlike myself .......
ive noticed a lot of people made minor mistakes with programs/options/rooted ways and thought it was OK to go .... but caught themselves stuck at the samsung bootloader screen ... SO ... im asking politely ... because i installed a FONT that crashed my system ... im a [email protected]$$ .. i know ... would someone be willing to upload their "twrp backup" of their stock rom ... i installed a font and now my phone wont go past sammy .. already tried factory reset and wont work thru TWRP .. this might help others get their phone back to life also ...
thanks again if someone makes it possible to upload the file somewhere for us all

"...I felt like posting a question in the Development board anyway", right?
Next time I'll happily treat you to the well deserved "Posting in the wrong forum" warning. You may want to keep in mind that we got better things to do than to play "house maidens" and clean up after you.
