Hi,
I've been on the last hours reading a lot of tutorials in this forum to avoid to post what is already answered. But i'm still confused, maybe a good soul can help me out : )
So far, i installed GNex Toolkit and the drivers successfully and i can enter in recovery mode, so the Toolkit is correctly identifying my device,
but i did not choose any option yet.
I have a Nexus GSM with stock rom 4.0.2. My goal is to update to 4.0.3 so i can apply some mods to invert menus and google apps color ; i like to use the device with white font over black background and i can't do it with the stock version.
So here is my noob questions
1 - I've downloaded the Android Open Kang Project (AOKP) rom ; i found strange because it seem to be a Milestone 4 rom, is that correct ?
2 - Can i apply the rom directly or do i need to apply a 4.0.3 'stock' rom before it ?
3 - As far as i understood, to flash a new rom i will :
1 - Reboot my phone in recovery mode
2 - Open Toolkit, choose the option 7 to unlock bootloader and root, and then option 12 to flash the new rom.
Is this correct ?
I miss a tutorial specific for flash new roms with Toolkit...
Thanks

You can flash it at once... No need for flashing "Stock" 4.0.3.

Provided that your Phone is rooted, has an unlocked bootloader and you have a custom recovery like CWM: yes.
Look at MSKIPS thread (I assume you have his toolkit) for further guidance. Unlocking your Bootloader will wipe your data so if you want that saved you should make a backup.
Steps:
1. Unlock Bootloader
2. Root
3. Flash CWM Recovery
4. Wipe data/cache
5. Flash ROM
6. Flash GAPPS
7. Enoy

I'm confused about step 3 ; after i unlock bootloader and root using Tookit, all i need is to boot in fastboot, then enter recovery mod, and select the rom's zipfile to install ? No need to do any fancy things ?
Thank you !

In MSKIPS Toolkit, just choose option 7, that is making all changes needed for flashing in one go (steps one to 3). After that: you'll be ready to rumble....
Read his FAQ from the second post. It explains everything. That is better then just pushing buttons what is simple but still..., teach a monkey a trick and he is still a monkey, tell him how it works and he can teach other monkeys...

Lol.., didn't think about that... Could it be that OP .... ???
Before flashing the rom do a backup in recovery, just in case something goes wrong. Plus always good to keep a back up of your original stock rom
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Just be aware when you unlock your boot loader that EVERYTHING on the phone will be erased so back up your files and store them on your pc
Don't worry brother, just read and reread and when you're ready get a cup of coffee and experience one of the most fun/intriguing things you can do with an Android phone.

Yeah.., just flah them like you flash the ROM...
Not all apps are in the ZIP due to copyright issues. The rest (music/movie etc) you have to download from the market (play) or download elsewhere (they can be found in these forums or elsewhere on the net.
Thanks very much everybody for all the help, i could install my first customized ROM, AOKP. It's working, except because my PlayStore icon does not open anymore. I will look for help in the appropriate topic.

if you are sure that you did not do anything and it just all happened then you are unlucky to have to have a factory defect phone
bring to samsung's service center
Flasing stock firmware is the only thing you can do if nothing works. And is that doesn't work too, get your phone replaced.

after flashing the stock rom, do a data wipe and cache wipe but preferably you should have done that before..
if that doesnt solve the problem, try flashing a stock kernel and reflash the stock rom

Don't you remember your stock ROM version? Just search for stock ROM version for the place you live in in Doky's stock ROM post and download the appropriate kernel from the kernel thread.

Hi.
I'm trying to unlock my bootloader on Xperia S in order to flash CM11 ROM.
I followed this website: unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions and I'm stuck at #9.
Download and unzip this file. This is the standard android_winusb.inf-file, with a few lines of code added to enable Fastboot to support Sony and Sony Ericsson devices. Make sure you are running Google USB Driver package revision 4 or higher in your Android SDK. You can see current Google USB Driver package revision in the SDK Manager.

As I'm using MAC, I don't have Google USB Driver and website doesn't mention anything for MAC users.
I can't fastboot my phone. :crying:
Please help.

Yes, I managed to download android SDK and everything except the Google USB Driver, because it doesn't exist on MAC.
Anyway, I managed to solve my own problem using a FlashTool here: flashtool.net/download.php
Now my problem is solved. The bootloader is finally unlocked!! :victory:
My next problem: I would like to flash CM11 KitKat. Is there a step-by-step guide?
I found some threads in the development section on what to download etc etc, but it doesn't tell me how to install or run it.
I'm an absolute noob at this.

What caused this ? Did you flash a ROM or something ?
Bootloader is unlocked (padlock symbol visible) right? If you've previously locked it, then Recovery won't do anything if you haven't unlocked.

Was there any mod installed (something that u flashed to make the phone faster) like the v6 supercharger or any other mod ?
Also I think that you should try updating your recovery and then flashing a rom onto your device. I think CM is available for your device (which I assume to be a nexus as you have mentioned the nexus system images page in the OP). Search the xda threads for a ROM and try flashing it.
