Thanks very much.
But here are my questions, plz answer them all.

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?

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.

Sent from my HTC One V Running SuPrimo v4.1(28/6/12)

Thanks. I have Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 and i read a thread(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942957) which says you should NOT use ROM manager on Ace. I downloaded and opened it but technically haven't used it to take back-up etc. After I read this thread, I uninstalled it - I believe my phone is not bricked?
Also, How can I take a back-up of my ROM? I saw a thread(http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=18167974) recommending to use a custom app () but that's not tested. What should i do?
You help is appreciated!!

Dude..... first of all wrong forum, second HUGE bump! Third why don't you just flash a custom recovery and be done with it instead of using apps? Don't ask any further questions here please but at the galaxy ace forums.

Kernel? Thats a bit Strange?
Sent from my LT18i using xda app-developers app

Nice rom... undoubtedly FASTEST I hv evr used.
I jst want u to add Titanium backup app + Rom control options (as we have in JJ Hybrid).
Also, does this rom support USB-OTG ??

Normally the usb hotsting function is determined by the kernel you use. The rom can simply have an integrated sys app that allows usb mounting and browsing, though even if not there are many free apps on the market that can do this easily. Doomkernel has the usb otg fucntions and so do some others though still with minor lacks of support like ntfs file systems ect.
by the way jader, what kernel do you reccomend fot usb hosting with ntf support for both usb and sd, also with swap or zram and other common tweaks?

i stuck on Sony Logo i follow the instruction....
3 time i try to install the rom... and it dont work.
any help ;(?

same happened to me on my xperia arc. But later I found a SOLUTION in original thread, which worked for me.
1. Open the zip file in your pc
2. Go to System --apps
3. Delete some apps to free memory (I deleted 3D-Camera)
4. Now transfer this edited rom zip file to your sd card and flash in recovery
I hope it ll work ( dnt delete any file about which you are not sure)

Did you install the latest firmware and given advanced stock kernel by jader? btw how did u manage to install cmw recovery with a locked BL?
I'm running .587 firmware with jaders advanced stock kernel and everything works fine though i have an unlocked bootloader so everything is easier.
I guess u just have to flash another working rom.....just my opinion

My SIM toolkit seems lost, how can re-install it?

It works with all kinds of roms even Ubuntu touch all you need to do is find repacked version of the Rom or repack it by yourself. Repacker is on the first page of dualboot thread. You can also ask sb to do it for you cause repacker only works under Linux. First of all you need to read because you can mess up your device if you don't know what you're doing.

I don't have linux either at the moment. I don't know if someone has already repacked this rom but you can search either in miui topic and dualboot one. You can also ask in those topics to repack it for you. Finally don't forget to hit "thanks" if I helped you.

To confirm, MIUI works fine on dual boot, I repacked one or two versions long time ago. In fact, afaik, all roms can work on bootmanager, repackaging is needed though.
I'd suggest that you ask if someone could repack you a recent version in BootManager thread, you will get more visibility than here. I don't have time these days to repack, but I'm sure someone will do it if you ask...
And if you have questions regarding bootmanager, don't hesitate to ask in the dev thread, it's easier to follow for me.

ExistenZ Ultra 1.0.0 as native
Hello,
I'd like to run the following system on my Xperia S:
native rom: ExistenZ Ultra 1.0.0 (thread here)
loop rom: letama's AOSP 4.3.1, for which he has already supplied the suitable .zip
As I'm running a linux 64bit box, I'd try to repack the ExistenZ myself, but I have some doubts this would work:
- Does the used kernel work within a native rom at all? I guess so, as it has been around now for some time.
- Would it work with the TX-Core Kernel 5.7? And how could this be done?
- In the 2nd post of the OP, there is given an instruction which includes flashing two images after each other with some fiddling in between - can this be packed as one flashable rom for the native partition at all?
And as this sounds rather tricky to me after all (never repacked a rom so far): Would anyone be willing to pack it for me?
Any hints on how and what to repack with the script would of course also be appreciated - Thanks in advance!
