Read the stickies. They have very clear instructions on setting up CWM.
Don't spam the forum by making two threads for the same question.
My fault.i didn't realize I was in the development section when I posted.so keep calm! It was a mistake

Okay please forgive me in advance for this post. I am not sure if I am posting it in the right place or not. I am new to this whole forum thing...other than reading them...great help by the way!
Anyways, I have the Samsung Galaxy S 4G. I rooted it earlier so I could remove annoying preinstalled apps. And I did the Fota fix. I am really interested in updating to Gingerbread, but I am confused regarding how. Is there anywhere on here that has step by step directions?? Are the leaks any good? Is there another rom that would be better? And if there is how do i go about putting the Rom on my phone.
Like I said, I know how to root, but my knowledge stops there. lol So sorry to be an annoyance with all the questions. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Considering I'm completely new to this I dont know what you are asking or if this root/unlock situation will be a bust. From what I gather from this site it seems pretty easy. I know that I am running the stock os on my phone though. Ive downloaded busybox and Samsung Galaxy unlock as well. Are they good apps? Also do I need any drivers? Where do I look in the info you sent me for the link (sorry if it seems like I'm asking dumb questions)

All you have to do my friend is refer to the bible in the dev section.

That's all you need to know. Once you finish reading the bible, you'll be able to do all that stuff blindfolded.
If you have trouble with your drivers you can download Kies Mini off of Samsungs site and Kies will install the right drivers for your phone.

Have you used search tool to try to find a clear answer?
Click on Samsung Galaxy S 4G above, look for Search This Forum right above the brown bar. That might help you find what you are looking for.

Here we are again with yet another new member that didn't read or search before posting about how they have flashed a GB kernel over ICS.
See here just a few posts down and here.
I just realized that I never started that guide I was wanting to write... maybe I will start it tomorrow morning.

Hey,
I recently rooted my note 2 via some YouTube link.. Now for some reason I am still getting over the air updates and my recovery mode always goes into the Samsung recovery (only options are wipe data and some others.. The screen is black with a green android mascot )
However all the root apps are working.. So what do I do£
Do I install the update which has come over the airborne not?
Thanks for the help..
You should send us a link to the youtube link and you should get a rom off XDA, it works better and you get more support.
Hope it helps
What next

Have you even gone to the thread for your device and read there? That should be the first thing you do before you do anything on your phone. Following some youtube video then coming here for help is not very considerate. Also you provided no information.
Luckily for you. You have root access but you haven't installed a custom recovery yet. You need to do that next. Then install the rom of your choice. Look in the development section for your device and read the stickies. Good luck.

hi,
yes i did.. there was a video.. i watched a 100 of those before rooting the device .. so in the end i chose one which i thought i was the most comfortable with .
unfortunately this happened and now it has come notice that xda is the overlord of sorts in android .. at the time i didnt kow else i would have followed the xda guide..
hence i ask NOW WHAT.
should i unroot ?
my recovery goes into stock recovery and cwm or twer recovery doesnt work properly .. so hence my question was thus framed..
please give me a suggestion that you see fit

Dude. I just told you what to do. It sounds like you are already rooted so now you flash custom recovery and from there flash the rom of your choice.
