Thanks very much.
But here are my questions, plz answer them all.
1. Whats the difference between flashing and rooting your phone? Do i need to root it before i flash it?
2. How can i erase the mod later if i dont want it anymore. maybe change back to samsung touchwiz?
3. What backup do i have to backup?
Is there any guide for that?
4. Is there any risk of damaging your phone if you root it or flash it? What could happen? And can you restore it to factory settings?
Thanks for the help man, i really appreciate it

1. Flashing mean u flash (upgrade or downgrade) ur OS version. Rooting mean u become a superuser for ur phone. If u don't know what is rooting for, u should looking into the forums...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1397120
2. Flash to stock rom and unroot ur phone.
3. On stock rom u can backup using KIES. Or native backup from phone. On custom rom u can used CWM to made nandroid backup. ( look into forums )
4. Yes, a risk always.. but as long u follow the step from, it won't hurt ur phone.

If you are a beginner, I suggest not to flash cm9.
Its in beta
I recommend to use stock first, root it and tweak it.

Stock ROM for Galaxy Pocket
For those who want to restore their Galaxy Pocket to the stock ROM..
check this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31326295&postcount=8

Until now, there is no custom rom better than stock rom. So when we want to try a new rom, it is advisable to backup your rom.

It make me not sure to install to my pocket...:crying:

I followed this method to get stock ROM back: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31326295&postcount=8
But when I hit Start, then an error shows at writing Nand.
It is possible that my version is not compatible, I'm currently using the GT S-5300L for latin america.
Kies didn't work for me, it only shows a message telling me that the device can´t be initialized.

Before rooting your device backup is a must.
Backup your contacts messages and the installed apps .
You can use super backup for that.

Rom searching

Hello there,
I'm searching for a Galaxy grand i9080 (that one with 1 SIM card) Rom...I posted this question here because it's the most similar, almost the same, phone as mine...also, i've found a rom but i'm not sure if it's for grand duos or the regular one. If someone could help me I would appreciate it very much )
And one more question. Can I use the i9082 root method for rooting my i9080?

We can't root i9080 with i9082 prerooted image....
I think this method will help: http://www.androidrooting.com/how-t...and-duos-gt-i9082-install-cwm-recovery-on-it/

[Q] CM 11.0 Galaxy Grand Duos I9082 / I9082L

Hello
After installing CM11 on my phone, some apps do not work as they should.
I used apps to hide sms photos and videos, however, the sms are not being hidden
The applications are:
Hide it prr
Vault-Hide SMS, Pics & Videos
None of these applications are hiding text messages.
The messages are appearing in the default messaging application on the phone.
Is there any way or any app able to hide sms in this rom?

Paranoid is in beta stage right now so it has bugs....Flash stock firmware via Odin and root u r device then before installing any custom ROM backup your efs partition...
