Hi all,
I'm a stranger to these parts
Just dug out my WF Swift to have play with it
Am I right in thinking the WF is pre rooted, so I can skip that basic?
I am a total noob to all this, as you might have guessed!
its not prerooted as it doesnt come with Cyanogen rom but with CyanogenOS

so i got my desire hd yesterday, i'm pretty satisfied with it so far... rooted it as soon as i got it out of ted to the box! but i've hit a major problem, i wanted to flash CM7 or MIUI or custom kernels, which i managed to do, but unfortunately, sound doesn't want to play on any rom other than the stock telus rom so i have a couple of questions and hoping to find answers:
1.what is causing this?
2.is there anything that can be done about that?
thanlks!

Hi,
I'm a new Xperia Arc S user, this is my first android phone as well (previously - WP7 on Samsung Focus, unlocked it and installed custom roms there - im experienced)
Got this phone since a couple of days now, it's running android 2.3.4, as ICS update is not available in my country yet. The phone came with PlusGSM branding, although can't tell the difference to stock android because I never had one.
I installed couple of apps, did some updates from android market and now I have like 44MB free only. Anyway now I'm wondering what to do next? Do you recommend anything in particular, like flashing to ICS, rooting, wait for official ICS update, etc?
Gonna read some guides like "Ultimate v1.0 Newbie's Guide For Arc / Arc S User" meantime
Wrong forum for question look at Q&A Section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1182
Oh sorry for that, could a moderator move my thread there?
ps. I'm just upgrading to official ICS via PC Companion, it poped up 1h ago...
I heard that there is no valid method of unlocking bootloader on Xperia Arc S without loosing DRM's. So I would like skip this part and try some custom roms that doesnt require to have it unlocked. Could you recommend any particular custom ICS roms ?
Hi guys.
I´m very new to this site, never rooted a phone, or nothing of the sorts.
However.
I´ve got an Xperia S, and I´d like to investigate the opportunity to have it cleaned and refitted with a naked android install. Kinda like the Google Nexus phones. Is that possible? Or do one have to use one of the custom roms? I want this, to get rid of the space the sony-gui and programs uses on my phone, as ram is getting short, and I just like the "naked" feeling it would give.
Any info would be awesome.
Thanks guys

You mean the Vanilla skin. As far as I know, You will have to install a custom ROM for it.

The Vanilla skin, ok. Pardon my ignorance, but where can I get this, and how do I install it? And a custom rom, is that something on top of the existing sony-gui?
Is it possible to wipe the phone clean, and install stock android on it?
Go through XDA, You will find everything here, regarding what is custom ROM, how to install it and necessary precautions. And do read and re-read again, as You are new to this.
Also, if You look, You can find the everything in forum. The ROM's are available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-s/s-development
Check for the AOSP one's, those have Vanilla skin.
Custom ROM usually replace the software entirely, and it is not on top of 'sony-gui.'
HI, i think im in really deep Sh*t. Today i successfully rooted my galaxy tab 3 10.1 and after that i tried to flash a stock rom 4.2.2
(i tried this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2625805 both stock and rooted still in bootloop)
not a very experienced android user, but i had no trouble before with custom roms on phones, now with the tab im in very tough position, so i hope you guys can help me or my wife will kill me or worse divorce me :crying:
I wanted to try this because the tab was on auto update and with the 4.4.2 update made things very messy, apps werent working like facebook chat viber and other. Please if you have any tips fire away...
solved
Luckily i managed to fix the problem on my own, PhilzAdvCW and this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-3/development-10/rom-100-stock-4-4-2-kitkat-p5210-wifi-t2848279 helped me
thanks to OPs of those threads
Hi everyone, I've just bought a wildfire buzz on ebay, unlocked it, and installed cyanogen9 (I think 4.0.4) with clockwork recovery. I'm used to dealing with slimrom's on my nexus, and after looking at all the rom's available, I wondered what is the latest and slimmest so I can have a play with the phone?
Many thanks guys
