[Q] Rooting/Flashing steps...correct? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hello everyone, I have never rooted nor flash a rom on the SGSII T989 before and I wanted to make sure that I do it right the first time. I am getting conflicting information online so I wanted to double check with the steps I have to make sure they are right.
I plan on flashing "[ROM] |12|17|11|BeastMOD II v4.2 |APM-CRT| Synergy 0.10|". So if people can go through this list and make sure I have the step right that would be awesome. Thank you in advance.

you are correct. however, the backing up apps is not really necessary since you aren't downloading/installing any apps in the first place. instead of making a titanium backup, make a CWR Nandroid backup.
(boot into CWR > backup and restore > backup).

Updated How-To
I'm assuming you're on Windows.
Preparing the device:
1. Download
Kies
Odin
CWM
Superuser
BeastRom
Install Kies. Place Odin on Desktop. Place other files (SU apk and zip, CWM, and BeastROM) on Desktop.
2. Connect device to PC.
3. Put device in to Mass Storage Mode.
4. Copy Superuser+SU.zip file & BeastROM.zip in to the SD Card of the device.
5. Pull battery/Launch Device in to "Download Mode".
(Press and hold volume up & down keys, insert USB cord)
6. Once PC has recognized the device, launch Odin.
7. Select PDA button > browse/select "CWRecovery.tar".
8. Verify that Odin has the "0: [COM]" yellow.
9. Press Start.
You now have Clockwork Mod Recovery. This will allow us to flash non-approved files to the phone.
Rooting
1. Pull battery
2. Press and hold Volume up & down, then press and release the power button for 2 seconds. Continue to hold volume buttons to enter CWR.
3. Select Install zip from SD card.
4. Select choose zip from SD card (you may have to select "choose zip from external sd card")
5. Select SU from list.
6. Select Yes.
7. Select Reboot System Now.
Congrats!!! Device in now rooted!!!!
Backup
1. Boot back into CWR (see above).
2. Backup and Restore
3. Backup
You now have a backup of the stock (pre-installed), rooted ROM in case anything goes wrong.
Install ROM
1. Reboot in to CWR
2. Wipe data/factory reset.
3. Wipe cache.
4. Select Install zip from SD card > choose zip from SD card (or external SD card)> BeastMOD.zip
5. Wipe Dalvik Cache.
6. Fix Permissions.
7. Reboot device (could take up to 10 minutes the first time).
Hopefully everything works!
Housekeeping
now's the time to make a few backups!
1. an application backup (for switching to other ROM's or factory resetting): launch titanium backup > batch > backup all apps and user data
2. a full image of your phone (for restoring if you break something): CWM > backup and restore > backup.
Now you can flash updates to your hearts content because you have a backup that you KNOW works to fall back on.
Troubleshooting:
if the market will not let you download applications, boot back into CWM (you'll be doing this a lot - get used to it) and select wipe cache.
if anything else goes wrong, don't hesitate to ask! this is a great community!
welcome aboard!

Dude you are AWESOME!!! Didn't expect anyone to help that much. Thank you!!!

Haha it's no problem. I've been in your shoes. let me know if anything goes wrong.

4. Select “shadow4.5.1-134nandroid” and choose “System Only”
5. After the restoration is complete, choose “Reboot System”, and IMMEDIATELY hold down the VOL UP key.

9. Select the fixed sbf file from the “fixed-sbf” folder. The filename should be “shadow4.5.1-134fixed.sbf” and Flash your DEFY

DISCLAIMER
Use this guide at your own risk. This ROM will only work on Defy with red lens. If flashed on to a Defy with green lens, your camera may not work. I will not be responsible for you bricking your Defy.
As of 9-Sept, Motorola has identified this ROM to be an "Unofficial" ROM and deleted all MOTOBLUR Accounts associated with this ROM. If you flash this ROM after this date, you will not be able to create a MOTOBLUR account during setup.
The official Defy+ ROM has been shared by walter79 over here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285007

Still in bootloader, you just unplug the usb cable and plug it back to the PC. Some WinXP will install several drivers separately upon each plug/unplug of the USB cable. The RSDlite required a few drivers for it to run properly.

Android 4.1 for HTC ONE X

Helly i find that's we can have Android 4.1 on we One X, but WIFI, Camera, and AUDIO don't work...
1. wipe all your apps, data and. Unlock the bootloader on your HTC One X
2. Install ClockWorkMod (CWM) recovery
3. Download and install HTC Sync software on your computer
4. Download the ROM from the official download page.
5. Copy the downloaded zip file (don’t extract it) to the SD card.
6. Also download the Flash_Boot.zip file from → here. This is required to flash the necessary kernel on the phone.
7. Extract the Flash_Boot.zip file to a convenient location on the computer.
8. Open the “jellybean_endeavoru_tgascoigne.zip” file (downloaded in step 5) on the computer and extract the boot.img file from inside it. Then, copy the boot.img file to the folder where you extracted the Flash_Boot.img file in step 8.
9. Switch off the phone. Boot into the bootloader mode first by holding the Volume Down button while powering on the phone. Then, select FASTBOOT from there using the volume buttons to navigate and power button to select to enter fastboot mode. Then connect your phone to the computer.
10. Go to the folder where you extracted the .zip file in step 8. Double-click the flash-boot-windows.bat file to flash the required kernel.
11. After the kernel is flashed, the window that showed up will automatically close. It might also say OKAY/finished and stay open, which is normal.
12. Now, press the power button on the phone to select BOOTLOADER, then navigate to the RECOVERY option and select it using the power button to boot into ClockworkMod recovery.
13. Perform a wipe:
1. Select wipe data/factory reset, then select Yes on the next screen to confirm data wipe. This will only delete your installed apps and settings, but will leave all other files and data on the SD card intact, so don’t worry.
2. Select mounts and storage, then select format system (you might have to select Yes on next screen to confirm). After format is complete, go back to the main recovery menu.
14. Then, select install zip from sdcard, then select choose zip from sdcard. Scroll to thejellybean_endeavoru_tgascoigne.zip file on the SD card and select it. Confirm installation by selecting Yes on the next screen.
15. After installation is complete, select go back then select reboot system now to reboot the phone and boot up into Android 4.1 aka Jelly Bean.
Android 4.1 Jelly Bean is now up and running on your HTC One X,
There are allready ROM's in the dev section for Jellybean, which are much easier to flash and will be updated. But thanks! maybe someone else will join development too
Yea we have that already in the dev section covered.
Closed.

How to Install a Custom ROM on Galaxy Grand:
The procedure of installing a custom ROM using ClockworkMod Recovery is almost the same for all Android phones. You just have to follow a few steps and it is done!
All custom ROMs come in zip and have md5 checksum signature that tells your device that it was downloaded successfully and does not miss anything. So download the ROM file in zip and copy it to you phone, preferably to the external SD card.
If you have downloaded an AOSP or CyanogenMod based custom ROM, you’ll also have to install the Google apps after flashing the ROM. Download the latest Google Apps zip package to install via CWM here. Copy this file to your phone too.
Now boot your phone into recovery mode. Here is the method: press and hold Volume Up + Home + Power buttons at the same time till the Samsung logo with device name blinks for 2 times. Then release the Power key while keeping other keys pressed till you see the recovery menu with “ClockwrokMod Recovery” written on the top. In Recovery mode, use the volume keys to scroll and the power key to select options.
Important: Go to “backup and restore” option and backup your current ROM to the external SD card.
When backup is complete, go back to main menu and “wipe data/factory reset”.
Then go to “advanced” and “wipe dalvik cache”.
Go back and select “mounts and storage” and “format system”.
Return to main menu and select “install zip from sdcard> choose zip from sdcard”, navigate to the ROM zip file and select it.
When the ROM is installed, also install the Google apps zip package, if applicable, using Step 8.
Finally, return to main menu and select “reboot system now”.
