Sorry, but there's A LOT of threads answering this question, that being one of them, and I don't want to type it all again.
Also, qking77 has a thread related to this here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31763293
Either method works, the choice is yours. Good luck!

I hope not. Not a fan of MIUI. At all. But for those that do enjoy it, i hope you get what you want.
As for JB, yes. We will most def get it. Timely manner? Its att, you figure it out.
But MIUI got the best customization packages.

Flashing Frosty JB

Hey, im kinda new to flashing and rooting. I did manage to root my T999V and i want to flash frosty jb but have no idea how. The instructions on the thread for it are kind of unclear for me so can someone please give me a really easy way of doing this?

Youll find a better definition if you google it, but basically all your apps run in a virtual machine type environment called the dalvik vm.
dalvik cache is where the apps code is stored and used by the vm.

To use the ota patch you'd have odin back to stock LH2. But if you're gonna do that just Odin the LJ4 fw.

Why do you want stock when you can do well better with Darkside Evolution V4?

Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
If youre looking for the Darkside Evolution series, its been discontinued. You can search the dev thread for the thread of you like.
For a stock rooted, in the dev thread, do an advanced search for "stock" without the quotes, and search in titles only. You'll find what youre looking for.

Google "thederekjay sourceforge" without the quotations.
Why you want a link of a stock rooted rom? why not root if you are on stock?
Although his kernels are discontinued I have yet to find something thats better, performance and battery life is excellent. My very first rom that I flashed for the S2 was the juggernaught rom and it was basically stock minus bloatware, maybe youd want to look into something like that.

cwm? there are countless howtos, just google search and videos even on youtube that show you how step by step make sure what you double check what you are doing and that the programs you are running are for the t989 specifically

Thanks. It's not quite what I'm looking for though. I want to be able to install either CleanRom or Jedi X Rom.
after you root with what he posted then go to play store and download goomanager.after that open it and click menu button, then click install open recovery script, wait for it to finish then you can reboot to recovery.

Once into recovery you can flash a ROM. Download the ROM to your ext sd card.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
I agree with slicingtaco, find the Exynosabuse.apk from Chainfire here on XDA and install it. You will be able to do this right from your SGN2. After rooting, get goomanager from the play store. open goomanager and in the menu choose 'Install OpenRecoveryScript'. That will download and install TWRP which will overwrite the stock recovery, which, after all of this you can install custom ROMS.
Right after rooting, you may have to get BusyBox Free from the playstore and install busybox.
Good Luck!

Might not root. I've been doing some reading and for someone as new to Android as me it just seems to risky and not enough benefit.

I just came over from iPhone, but I always jailbroke my phones there. This is much easier to do. It sounds more daunting than it actually is, if you follow the site I provided you will be done in under five minutes with your macbook.
Rooted or not, this phone is incredible. Enjoy!

Well I was able to using a app. Im cursed with having a broke volume down button, so that was my only choice since i couldnt get to download mode without rooting and using a widget to reboot to download mode.
I have to dig around for the app but I know I saved it just in case...
Actrully found it I used a app called framaroot.

Interesting. It's worth a shot OP. Worst case, it fails and you uninstall. If it is successful, you can install mobile odin, then get the latest gb27 tar, and money. While you're at it, you will have to flash a cwm custom jb kernel, since you're on ics, and, MO won't flash modems, you'll need a jb modem to use data on gb27. Download the zip though of the modem . Good luck, let us know how it goes.

Hopefully it works for you. I don't see why it wouldn't. Might be more complicated but it worked for me. but of course YMMV. Just follow what jdsingle76 said you you'll be good to go.
