Just looking at the general section nd found it messy..With most of them useless or repeated..

1.People who r new nd need some basic information.
2.People who want to know about firmware...root....miui....cm7....ics....cm9...how to flash....what is pit file....any question u feel shy to ask...
Our great developers will surely answer them..
I m uploading some videos regarding miui installation nd my 1 week experience...

i never thought even "bees" would be capable of using a phone or even be a part of a "family".
its not "new bees" mate. its "newbies". and the fact newbies dont read before posting, its very unlikely they will come here cause they dont read!

Firstly does the OP of the ROM said that he apply the sd swap?
I also seen your conversation with longfeng on the icebolt rom thread..and he is right on the changing of vold.fstab..
If you dont now how to edit the file its better to ask the maker of the cROM to upload the origunal vold.fstab.

completely agree with u. Even its more surprising is that when someone scold to such noobs for creating un-necessary threads then instead of supporting that senior member other people start blaming to that senior member that he is doing bossing over there. We people must understand that if we keep some strict decipline here then only noobs with behave properly. We cant completely rely on our mods.

Remember the days when xxkph custom roms were out......we were having a clean forum....then it got separated........now development section is clean but general section is totally populated....this is called urbanisation ;->
Hey guys, a new member here, but have been lurking in this board for a few months now.
I agree that it is really very annoying to see the same questions over and over again, but then, it is also so hard, with the amount of pages of often offtopic posts (replying to conversations not related to the main topic)/double posts. If there were some sort of chatbox here, then I guess the amount of spam posts might be redirected to the CB.
Also, I do hope I can be a good member here in the forums. I'm really trying to modify and customize my own ROM, but I guess I'll have to observe and learn more every now and then.

[Q] How can I go back to custom rom for official ics update?

I have the samsung skyrocket for att and was wondering how i can flash the stock rom and will i be able to get the official ota update? i currently have the skyics update from sean. and i did not make a backup because i didnt know much about rooting when i first flashed a rom

you gotta read and search my friend. Questions go in Q&A btw. XDA isn't going to spoon feed you, the info to get back to stock is all over the place. if you got to a custom rom, I'm confident you can flash odin back to stock
Moved to Q&A. I'm almost sure this might be covered somewhere else but at least have it in the correct forum
Cheers

This is your actual question. By now you may know Xda organizes those answers in the AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket Android Development forum section. Look for the pushpin icons at the top of the list of threads. they are your "stickies", like an FAQ.
Remember OTA updates, when offered, do not mix with custom recoveries like CWM. You will need to flash a stock recovery.

read, read more, read the stickies, i read alot b4 i even attempted to flash, at least a few hundred posts and using the search button.
all problems and solutions have been posted, as u r a n00b all u have todo is invest time into reading alot of posts, because of ur post we all know u havent even bothered to read the stickies, espicially read the one w/n00b's in the title, thats y they r there. .
once u know what ur r doing and r stumped at a certain problem, believe me we can tell by how u post a question, post in the q&a forum
this post is just a copy paste from another post i wrote to a n00b
but anyway read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652398 , its a post i started for ur situation, u would have found many by doing a simple search

Hey MJ, I think this can be discussed over ardatdat thread.. @NewbieGalaxyR: buddy you can ask whatever problem is coming to your device due to Devs development. so please ask to Ardatdat thread for kernel.
Reported to Justin for this thread.
First of all this issues should be posted to kernel thread there is no need to create whole new topic for just a single issue.
Btw have u wiped data from CWM before flashing ardatdat kernel?
Try to boot in recovery mod if u r unable to boot in recovery than there are chances that its a brick.
If ur phone is booting in recovery mod than DONT RESTORE CWM BACKUP. U are having stock kernel and restoring nand backup is dangerous.
I suggest to donwload official ICS (from sammobile, see dev section for links) and flash it through Odin, than flash CWM and flash ardatdat kernel it will work fine.

There are lot of threads regarding these that how to be new user and not a noob. (like one made by mf in my sig) also we have sticky made by cooleagle regarding where to post. New users should read it first before posting.

This is okay guys. I'm happy with either:
a) a thread in General asking the question; or
b) a post in the respective thread.
In my ideal world, the kernel thread itself would contain nothing but the initial release and changelogs, and be closed after two posts (meaning people could only 'thank' the release, not post their thanks). All other discussion/praise/moaning/bug reports would be in a kernel Q&A thread in here, with one for each kernel/ROM available.
So I don't really mind seeing new topics for questions, so long as they are questions which haven't been answered time-and-time again.
Thanks for the heads-up and diligence though, I appreciate it greatly

First flash clockworkmod recovery, and after that you can flash ardatdat's kernel v4 or above and it will automatically root the phone for you..
