Newbie in need of help.

Hey guys I'm new to the whole rooting and roming thing, i just rooted my phone yesterday and with nice guides from qbking77 in YouTube I was able to install AOSP Alpha 6 jb ROM using agar recovery so now that you know my lil story my question is...
To install a new ROM all I have to do is copy to sdcard the files, boot agar recovery do the 3 wipe steps and install? Or do I have to restore my stock recovery first then wipe?
Very sorry for my big newb question but I hope ppl can help me
Thanks.
P.s I think this is the correct section to post this but if it isn't please move it, thanks.

Welcome to rooting.. so if im getting your question right you want to go to a new ROM possibly.. and youre on AOSP..well since you are new I would suggest using a one click odin (your choice ) and start from there since you are on A JB build ...

+1 for one click of your choice, make sure you pick a full wipe one though.

I would flash over the EL26 CWM kernel, first it just makes it easier for you, and is a very safe recovery to flash from.

Thank you guys, actually I just wanted to know what to do when I decide to explore others roms but for now I really like this one so Ima stay here a while I didnt knew rooting would be this cool but new roms and with apps like setcpu this is very nice, thanks again.

Oh I see well all is your choice on the path..one major thing I suggest is when moving from ROM to ROM back up your apps ..(non system apps)and make sure to wipe on a safe recoveries (Kuban kernel, agats, el26) problems can arise from dirty installs
I also suggest ROM toolbox from the play store its a great tool that basically does everything

Is freegs3 touch wiz or AOSP?
-Sent from my GS3 running CM10.-

Its 4.0.4 touchwiz, OP search around and read before making your friends phone old and out dated with problems. And no the 2.3 rootkit is obsolete now a days, IMO. Just use Odin and read on the roms what's available and which has what features and let him/her decide.

If your friend likes the stock look I would recommend xquizit ROM by wild or frosty ROM by dj or infamous ROM by jamison and wicked by evil. Aosp look and feel I would recommend aokp or cm10. Its all on jellybean too.

Someone said they have the AT&T Jellybeer rom running perfectly on our T889, I need to flash our modem though, correct? Does anyone have a zip link to one, I can't seem to find a recovery flashable one? I'm kind of excited now, since our forum seems so quiet.

No need to flash a modem. Clean install first, then just flash the rom and flash gapps. I'm currently running Jelly Beer. :good:

I have Jelly Thunder running fine on mine, I just stayed in recovery and flashed Persius kernel for our device after flashing the ROM, everything working here.

Wait, the modem is the same? So not used to having a phone with the same specs, Lol. I do have to flash a different kernel though?

Modem is not the same, but I am assuming the roms that doesn't include a modem will not replace the one you have now

Yea, I just asked someone in the Jellybeer thread if I had to worry about that, or flash a modem, or kernel. To be on the safe side.... if so, Mmm..... back on AOSP, is going to feel so good. Lol
TerrorCandii Inc.

I too am running jellybeer and it is great it will do for now till whitehawkx and cmenard relese a nice shiny new AOKP rom for us (fingers crossed) it has some AOKP features in it. All I have to say is read read read and when you are done and think you got it read again. All the info is in the the first few posts of a rom thread. just make sure that there is no modem mostr devs do not include a modem but I have notices a few that are starting to put one in so just watch if they do they usually say so because like I said it is not standard pratice.
I do have a question I have not flashed any touchwiz att roms only the unofficial cm10 and jellybeer. So on the TW roms do you have to flash o tmo kernel? The reason I ask is because on the s2 the main difference was the rotation. It was always messed up so the way to fix it was to use a tmo kernel or vice versa . Until someone made a .zip that fixed that and the device name in the build.prop so is that the same situation here.. It doesnt sound like it.
And one m ore question while I am here I posted a question in the q&A thread if anyone knows the proper lcd density. I dont like the way jellybeer is it has small fonts on the phone but everything in the market is way too big and it is driving me nutts.

That i dont know, all the note II has the same hardware, correct me if im wrong. so i dont know if flashing a tmo note II kernel with a Att TW rom will work. but CleanRom is using Persus, and i think Tmo N2 has Persus kernel, so maybe it will work

Here it is guys, i took the risks with my heart pounding every second when it was installing and booting
Using CleanRom by scrosler, here is the link
I flashed the rom, in aroma, i choosed ATT as the carrier and persus kernel, then the rest is pretty self explanatory
then i flashed Tmo modem and Tmo Persus Kernel
it booted and it is running, i powered it off and took out the battery to test if it will power back on again, and indeed it did

Clean rom works perfectly without a flaw.. no need to install any kernel,modem or anything .

[Q] [Sudden Death] Does lastest custom roms protect us from SDS ?

Hi everyone, first im sorry for my bad english...
im just asking about SDS (Sudden Death Syndrome) i know that everyone is scared like me but my questions is :
is the lastest custom roms specialy like OMEGA or Android Revolution HD are safe and secured our devices for SDS ?
anyone had SDS were using this kind of roms ?
im using TWRP 2.4.4.0 is it safe?
Thx for all.

Yeah the latest version do.
And twrp version is all right.

What you have to understand is that your phone is never safe if you have the affected firmware version on your emmc chip. Although the software patches Samsung created were designed to help prevent it, if your phone is moving towards brick land, it will do so no matter what version, kernel, rom or recovery you have.
Unless someone finds a way to update the firmware on the emmc chip, no one with the affected version is safe.

What the hell are you saying? You know what has happened to a sds bricked phone? A wrong command has been triggered which bricked the storage on the device. So if that command is stopped from being issued then how can one have sds issue?
this is XXXDDDAAA

AFAIK, the fix basically crashes the phone when the conditions triggering SDS appear, preventing permanent damage.
So while your phone won't die it might become unstable.

i also thank everyone for the informations... everytime i touch my note is a scary moment for me cuz i dont have warranty i just bought it on internet :crying:

Don't worry. He might have been using note2core kernel which doesn't have sds patches till yet. I check the forums almost daily and I. Have never seen anyone have sds on omega 14 which is released just on Monday so I don't think I had skipped that thread.

I pmed him to confirm the version. It was probably due to a previous version of kernel or recovery.

He's talking about the last version of Perseus kernel, but if u just bought your Note 2, you should root it first and then install a custom rom ( i suggest Android Revolution rom ) and then intall the last version of Perseus kernel... all of that and i cant confirm you that your device is protected from Sudden Death.

I think it's with omega only. Could you confirm the kernel and recovery from him?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium

Apparently the reason of sds in his case was that he had an obsolete recovery which wasn't sds safe.
Can you try to not down all the instances where people with latest stuff got sds? It would be really helpful.

There is a stickies in this forum that are fine.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529058
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26328017&postcount=123 <-- that is in a different sticky (less in depth instructions). Although with that you probably should download a more up to date recovery, but it would get you root with the old recovery.
That said...I recommend letting your friend do the work. That way he/she can learn, and if there is a problem, he/she can possibly fix it. Rather than being stuck without a device until you can get around to potentially fixing it. Especially if you plan on flashing custom ROMs and kernels.
