I have been used to using CWM and Rom manager to flash my roms. However, it appears that won't work on my Iconia A100 Tablet. Where is a good resource to bone up on how to install custom roms on this tablet?
Thanks.

Hi,
Does anybody know any easy to follow guides or steps to installing custom roms on the Galaxy W. I have upgraded from an Xperia X8 and it seems more complex than that.
Any assistance is appreciated

Please read the threads in development section.
Hi,
Yeah i did check that forum but i couldnt realy find anything which is relatively easy enough to follow in order to install CWM.
I havent as yet rooted the device or done anything else. However it is running the latest Samsung firmware and isnt carrier locked.
Arco68 has posted a cwm recovery in the galaxy w hacking and development section. You can use Odin (simple way) or adb (complex way) to flash cwm. Then once this is done you can go into recovery. You will notice many things are different to standard recovery. Go into install rom rom sdcard (hint that you need a rom on ur SD) and it will flash the rom you choose. Simplez. PS. If your gonna choose a rom I'd recommend cyanogenmod (currently in alpha but not many bugs and still good)

Is it possible to flash the stock Galaxy S3 ROM onto an Galaxy S2 (and have it work)?
If it's not possible to flash the stock ROM, is anyone working on a port or something that is very close to stock?
The S2 is my first android, and I haven't had the need to root or flash a custom ROM yet. I recently applied the ICS update though, and it's driving me crazy. I hate some of the changes.
Thanks for the help.

Unless it was ported version, no. Absolutely not. You will brick your phone by doing so.

you cant directly flash s3 rom to s2.. i also had a s2. stock ics for s2 is realy a not good one.. try this rom.. andy x 15.3.. it has many s3 features and it is really good and beauutifuuull... and also download the jk deluxe settings 14.1 to do more customisations..

Try the Jedi mind trick ROM its pretty darn close to an s3. I'm running it now its pretty fast. Take a look in the dev forums. Its a very stable rom

to do all that you have to flash a recovery (cwm)...and thats rooting ur phone...i dont understand why anybody hasnt mentioned that...thats the only way you can use the roms they mentioned...and if your gonna do all that...i think the most stable rom is darkside v8 ...or you can use the newest jelly bean rom...they are coming along very nice...and jelly bean is all that...
The S3 and S2 have diffrent processors and a completely different hardware. You will have a very expensive paper weight. Ive heard many good things thought about Jedi Mind trick, that it has many S3 features.
I am running the Jedi Mind Trick ROM on my S2 and it doesn't look much different than my gf's S3 (obviously some things are different). She works for a "technology" company and it kills me that she has a nicer phone than I do - for now. The Jedi Mind Trick is probably as close to an S3 you can get on an S2 IMO.

im pretty sure this is the rooting method i used and if so, it worked well as im here now with a rooted a100 hundred :good: and if your looking into installing a recovery and flashing roms too i would recommend twrp 2.2.2.1 but you have to unlock your bootloader first.

twrp 2.2.2.1 thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1848748
after doing this you can download any kernels and roms and flash them as you please just make sure you follow ALL DIRECTIONS on these threads so you dont mess anything up on your tablet. wouldnt want that, good luck

Hello everyone!
I'm an average avid photographer that owns a kindle fire 1st gen. Its been collecting some dust for quite sometime but now that I have been taking more and more pictures with my Galaxy made me wonder if I could add some photo editing tools that I could use quickly on the fly. So I discovered Photoshop Touch ! It seems to fit my needs quite nicely but when I sideloaded it to my kindle it just kept crashing.
Now that I know it doesnt function properly on the KF1st gen because of the OS that came in with the kindle made me want to try to root and flash a diferent rom on it to see if I can use photoshop on it.
So my goals are the following for this device:
1. Photo Editing
2. Light Reading
3. Web Surfing
4. Listening to music
What would be the most effective way to achieve this ?
What would be the best rom for this tasks in that particular order?
Is there a way I can dual boot the stock rom and the custom rom so I can use it for 2,3,4 and boot the custom one for just photo editing ?
Thanks in advance for reading my post and for any help,tips or insights on how to achieve this.
Ichigo said:
You cannot dual boot stock and a custom ROM, but you can dual boot GR9 Modaco ALT and a custom ROM. GR9 Modaco ALT is basically stock with root. Photoshop Touch will work on Jellybean.

Android 4.1.x and later & CM10 and later are all Jellybean. Your best bet is to install a normal jellybean ROM and use Gr8 alt-ROM (MoDaCo) for the alternate boot.

Did you flash the ROM zip and then gapps zip in twrp? If you did, you might try a clean install again.

I didnt dual boot because I discovered that the Hellfire was good enough and I was able to achieve everything and it really flies. I regret not doing it sooner.

Hi,
after years with different versions of Cyanogen I'm so used to it that I'm really a little worried that noone ported it for the Galaxy Fame.
Rooting is easy with motochopper so apps lite Titanium are working but I'm really missing some of the CM goodies.
Or any other ROM that has more customizations available.
Would be great if a coder could go for it
Bye,

Rooting with the motochopper and installing the clockworkmod recovery goes very smoothly and easily if you follow the instructions. At that stage you at least have the benefits of being rooted such as Titianium Backup and being able to create a clockworkmod recovery.
It is a bit frustrating not being able to find any customer overclock/undervolt kernels and a nice juicy Cyanogen custom rom for it, but hopefully it will come in time.
Hey guys. Just wanted to know if there's any progress going on with custom roms??
Thanks for any info.
Aparently no activity for this terminal, guess many of us have to buy another model.
hi i have been reading all these galaxy fame threads and searching further a-field for any detail too on a new rom, really interested in tweaking one myself but being a newbie im not sure how to get the standard one in zip format to start working with and altering, can anyone help me with that part so then i can start tweaking it a bit to test please?
cheers in advance

I rooted my fame with motochopper and it was super easy (rooting it with this automatically installs supersu aswell which is handy), then root checker to test that rooting worked, (i deleted root checker afterwards).
i put on titanium backup which is a very good app, and helps alot, and helps to get rid of unwanted apps and widgets.
i also used pimp my rom which is quite a nifty app, but can cause allsorts of problems if you tweak too much, i did get it running better than normal after changing settings several times.
i couldnt get the clockwork mod stuff working to be honest.

You can flash cwm from my thread (check latest posts) and make a backup. After that you can give it a try.
I suppose that it works because those terminations are most of region codes or something eg, B for Brasil, L for Latin and P for the nfc version. But the boards are the same...
Cheers!:good:
I'm going to try this... Soon. Thanks!
:fingers-crossed:
corsicanu, ok now i can confirm, you rom is compatible with L series, so i done your tutorial, installed CWM, from the right post, and them the costom rom....alas it still a "stock rom", is very stable and very lightweith compared with the provider rom. so, kudos to you, now, is time to test and to help in the case i find a bug......thank you so mutch for this, galaxy fame deeded it so mutch i'll keep in touch when somethin happends.
