So i'm assuming stock, and what theme are you trying to install? If its a Theme Engine theme in .apk format, like something you got from the market, then you would need a AOSP based ROM like CM7. If its a theme you downloaded somewhere else, and its in .zip format, then you need to specify which theme and/or where you got it from. Installing themes depend on if they were made for your ROM/phone.
Thanks for the info, is there a write up or section that tells me what is needed to install the cm7rom
thx

If you never modded your g2x before, that means you probably have the stock recovery, you need ClockWorkMod Recovery to flash anything custom, ROMs, kernels, etc. Read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1056847
It will walk you through flashing the latest CWM Recovery. Read and follow the directions carefully. When you have CWM Recovery flashing and working properly, then you can visit the Android Development section and find CM7 official, or a nightly. Good luck

Follow the instructions on the link I posted previously to make sure you get GB flashed correctly - correct bootloaders / no ext 4 issues etc...
Then check the Dev section for the latest roms - Valhala 1.1 is nice....
I don't use Wifi a whole lot so I can't really comment on that.

Just read OP instructions for whatever ROM you are about to flash...very carefully until you completely understand the process. If you have any questions, read through the entire associated thread as they have probably already been asked and answered.
Just read, read, read. All of the information you need is available on these boards. I've bootlooped and soft bricked my phone several times, and each time it was because I hadn't followed the OP instructions to a "T".
If you have done everything above and still have a question it is likely that it is a good question, and there are a ton of really nice helpful people that will jump in and help you out.
EDIT: GB battery life is awesome.....
yeah and your helping me out is great looked around found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215748 seems too be easy too get on GB with no mess up
Just so the ops not alone, I flashed the deodexed and rooted kd1 then the bali 3.3uv kernal. When I try and flash adrenaline shot 7 i get stuck at the boot logo, any ideas here?
If any1 can help you get out of the loop, that would be great but if you can't you can try the following.
1. If you can get into CWM you can try to do a factory reset or reinstall the rom.
2. If you can not get into CWM you can try to use odin and flash a new rom.
the thread can be closed now thanks for all the help htaak

Did you try to manually push the files in through File explorer? Also, I think dsexton made the adrenaline shot on gingerbread roms, so it may not be 100% compatible on a froyo build. You might want to try some older versions of it if they are available.

i just joint this site and have been searching for roms which i can root to. my phone is currently running 2.3.6 DDKT1. if anyone would just give the link of a ROM which will work on my phone i would be thankful.
all ROMs are gonna run fine. Some good, the others better.
just go to the development section and find a ROM that suits you. Follow the Instructions and you'll be fine.
Try using a program such as ROM Manager, and you'll be screwed.
i see that ur currently using RazaDroid v1.0 at 801MHz. how do i also get it? im new to this so how do i root my device to ur ROM? and is 801MHz stable??

I found this thread, but it has only the cdma/4G version:

this recovery seems promising, but the download link is dead, so is the dev's website...
does anyone have a backup? or, can someone compile it from the source?
is this compatible with ICS?
any help will be much appreciated, thanks...
Looks like you have an i19020. Since you cant find your desired recovery roms. I would suggest you to than flash a new rom. For eg Cm9, iceandfire..etc
heres the link for CM9 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399035

yeah, I have an i9020, but this has nothing to do with CM9 or any related roms, I just wanna try that recovery, RZrecovery.
Currently, I'm using CyberGRv10 and don't have any problem with that.
Hi,
I was trying to install the CM9/10 for my device and I found a link on how to install here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S/SGH-T959V/Installing_CyanogenMod_9
I am following the steps, but i am stuck at a place where i have to install CWM 5.0.2.x or higher. I checked their website http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager and found version 3.2.0.0. Could you guys please let me know where to find 5.0.2.8?? or suggest an alternative. I am sorry if there was a post similar to this, as i have done extensive search before posting this thread. Thanks in advance, waiting for a reply.
As stated on the wiki page you linked to, you need a kernel with CWM Recovery preinstalled (don't use ROM Manager!)
This page shows you how to flash a kernel onto the device to give you the proper recovery.
Keep reading the wiki, there's lots of good stuff in there to teach you how this device works as far as flashing goes
Thank you!! I was able to install the Kernel and the CM9 ROM....

Look for bhundven's Blast Off kernel or AntonX's Basic with a Twist in the Development section to then flash CM9 from.
I've spent hours trying to work this out myself, with help from posts on this site, but failed.
I've got an old htc desire c which I've unlocked and rooted. The problem I have is that when I download a zipped custom rom I can't find the 'boot,img' anywhere in the folders. I've dowmloaded, and looked for it in, several different roms.
What am I doing wrong.
I've got a basic grasp of the process, I've also unlooked, rooted and, successfully, flashed a rom to a Wildfire.
Thanks

if the boot.img(kernel) is not included in the zip then you should search for the compatible kernel..
be specific, which rom are u trying to install?
and can you give me the thread? may be it has something there telling about some kernel..
or
just search for the kernel according to the jellybean rom or ics rom or gingerbread rom..
try flashing different kernels until you get the most compatible one.
