Is this tolerable? - General Questions and Answers

I was browsing a forum from other sites and came across that thread which catches my attention.
Here is the link: http://www.istorya.net/forums/cellphones-and-accessories/548023-rooting-service.html
The thread starter stated that;
For hire.. rooting and installing custom roms...
Units available for customization..

Xperia x10 mini pro
Xperia x10i

all roms to be installed are stable roms

Which means that he is offering a paid service for rooting and installing custom roms on selected phones.
My concern is, I think rooting is ok, but gaining money by installing custom roms he didn't created, I think that is unfair. Custom ROM Developers spend their time and hard work for custom roms. So it's very obvious that it is very unfair for the developers that someone is gaining money from their works and they don't receive any beers from them.
Hope that there will be a solution for this kind of act.
To MODS: i don't know where to post this thread. it is best if you will move this to the right place. thanks =D

No it is not, if your a member of that site report there...not XDA, Moderators here have no rights there...report it to the site.
Thank you & Thread Closed.

Hello Desire People :)

As the title say Hello Desire People .
I have just changed my SE Xperia x10
to _>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
HTC Desire S.
1)_Ok so i obviously changed it becouse i liked its specs more, but as it is known specs are not all that matters so tell me what you think about this device and what i have gotten myself into, by getting one.
2)_I was with xda for over a year now with my x10, so i know basics (Such as what rom is, why y need to unlock bootloader, whats up with phone rooting , and generally all basics about flashing.) Please gimme some tips bout what Custom kitchenware you use to Flash whose fresh ROM's to your devises, and which rom would be best for starters (most stable compared to perfomance) (would be best ics if its complete on this device, couse its not on x10)

Welcome :good: You need to read, read and read some more.
There are some great ROMs out there. If you want stability then stick with a GB-based one for the moment (Reaper for non-Sense and Endymion for Sense). If you want to be a bit more adventurous then try Fallout v5.0, based on the ICS RUU.
TO learn what you are doing - there are plenty of guides out there so make sure you read and understand exactly what you are doing and why before you risk doing anything to your phone.
Gratz on getting yourself the Ds, first if all!
1. First of all, by getting the mobile you just got into friendliest forum in xda!
2. And Secondly, before you start asking questions, there's some comprehensive guide about the specs, guides and tutorials, info, etc stickied in the general section
Edit : ah already see Simon has beat me to the welcoming committee

Thx for kind words of welcome, and just so to let you know i am reading all the beginers guides (not done yet). And at the same time i saw that ICS is officially on this phone now. So i am trying to install it but as it seems i need adb drivers and i have some difficulty finding them on my windows8. I found some for windows 7 but is says unsuported os on win8
UPDATE: grabed my Moms laptop with win7 and started to install this official ICS, but i cant keep doing that every time i need to flash rom (mom would come and turn it off right in middle )
Welcome, see link in my signature for the INDEX thread that should hopefully contain links to all you seek.
I'll echo what is said above in read read and read some more
Enjoy and there is an OFF TOPIC thread for social chat etc
Sywepd form my DsereiS
Hello man)
ROM installed on my device is ICE_DS 5.0 with kernel Tweaked 7.1 (battery life is great!)
ROM on 4.0.4 version need update manualy.
p.s. its older to buy
hey there, welcome to the club! if you want great stability and also ICS experience, and don't want to experiment, you can also flash Ice Cream Saga v1. you get the latest HTC stock rom, rooted, with only the most basic tweaks. you can customise it if you wish with amidabudha's tweaked kernel or leave it as it is.

Hi Kesh,
When you post a link, it gives you the option to change the text that appears 'above' the hyperlink . Well worth using the feature as it shows people exactly what you are linking to, rather than just the actual URL. :thumbup:

[J/Miro/Tipo]Root Easy Method!!

Xperia J users Please dont flash CM10 from this thread...its too buggy n laggs to death!! its just an experiment...
use stock ROM from sony itself...its super fast and lag free...moreover SONY will be releasing JB update soon so have patience
to root easily:
download unlock root pro and follow the instructions....dats it!
its safe!no need of any flashing stuff....u can buy pro version for deeper use Cheers!
Worked on Xperia J and Tipo....not tested on miro yet
Works on all firmware
HAPPY TO HELP! Click thanks if i helped!
Shameless. See post here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36155148
Should you at least give credits to the guy who first found this?
Meanwhile your word about the only current available CM10 for Xperia J is way too unfair and rude. Devs never charge you for a penny and work too hard to fix bugs. The whole XDA forum is an experiment and that is why it is so much fun. What is boring is copying ideas from others and double post as if it is your own.

It seems like a stunt to quickly get more 'thanks'
Devs can only improve custom roms if users test them. Stop advising people to stay away from developers works, or you might just stop all development on your device.

c this threaddude.....see what he has posted!! he has told the members not to use that method(its my first post).....how will u feel if anyone has done that to you,though u only help members volunteerly??
Thread moved and closed. You already have a root thread here so not sure why you're making another and this is clearly trying to get one back on adfad666 as he told people not to use the version you posted not the version he posted so you must not have read the OP properly. In future please understand Development is for work you've made to share with the community so if you didn't make it, don't post it there.
Thanks

[Q][Xperia Arc][LT15i] Clear threads on rooting and flashing custom ROMs?

Hi, I have a sister who uses Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc LT15i, Android 2.3.3, build version 2.6.32.9-perf, but I haven't tweaked with Sony Ericsson phones before so I don't know anything about her Arc's kernel and stuff.
She has problems with her device lately (lagging, response is slow etc.) and wants to root and flash it with a stable ROM, preferably as new and as fast. I tried helping her by finding threads on this forum, but there are too many stuff need looking through, and my eyes hurt just by looking at them builds and codes (too many broken links and complicated instructions).
Anyone can redirect me to a thread where it has clear and simple instructions as well as availability of downloads to links and software needed for the root/flash?
Wrong forum section. This is for the HTC One X.
Wrong forum bro,this is for the at&t htc one x! Beat me too it red!!!

[Completed] Xperia Z1 STABLE and update cyanogenmod for a noob

Hello, the title shows you most things but I probably ought to expand. I've had my z1 for a bit and have been using Android for a long time, I have never rooted or installed cyanogenmod but say the oppo phone and finally I've decided i want in. Can someone find me a suitable one with a very noob friendly tone
Thanks alot
Callum
P. S. Any kernel numbers etc. you may need I can add if asked but to be honest I don't know what you need
Hi,
You can find all you need for your devices it's here => SONY XPERIA Z1 FORUM
and particurarly this thread => Root, Backup TA, Unlock bootloader and more! The ultimate Xperia Z1 guide
and finally, this Cyanogen rom => {Z1}[DEVELOPMENT] - CM11 - Android 4.4 - FreeXperia Project
Good luck
Unstable!?

It doesn't seem very stable. Not something I want to risk n my daily driver or am I paranoid?
No, this rom is in development that's wahy it seems not really stable.
The best you can do it's to go to both of Z1 Android Development and Z1 Original Android Development, read and choose one of these roms.
I cannot tell you if this rom is best than the other, because you must read, and read before to select and try a rom
Don't forget you need to read with attention my second link which is really important for rooting your device etc... and don't ne afraid, it's easy :good:

Also, what's the difference between the rooting and cyanogenmod. I have seen rooting before but never really seemed good, I've seen cyanogenmod before but now I'm confused between the two
You need to be root if you want to flash a custom rom like cyanogen rom.
If you, want to know more about cyanogen go here => http://www.cyanogenmod.org

[Completed] [Q] where can i find mod/tweaks ?

hi guys i'm pretty new to android, i've switched from ios lately.
And my question is that on ios when we jailbreak our iPhones we have something called Cydia where we can install all the crazy stuff (system tweaks,apps that can't be published on the appstore,themes, and a lot of other things).
So i was wondering where can i find something similar to that on android. Is there an app or a list or a thread on xda where can i read the tweak description and install it?
thanks in advance
First of all, welcome to the Android world. In order to better assist you a bit more information is needed. What Device ? What Android version ? What Recovery ? What carrier ? Rooted / Non-Rooted ?
my phone is sony xperia z2 running kitkat 4.4.2 and it's unlocked.
it is not rooted and i haven't installed a custom recovery yet but if i need to do so i don't have a problem.
thanks for the welcome.
The links below should get you going in the right direction. The first link is more of a General get to know Android terms, and such. The second is on how to Flash a Rom, and Root. Again general info. The last two are the Specific Forum for your device, and the Section to look for Roms. I would highly advice spending some time reading, and acquainting yourself with the processes, and terminology before proceeding. Best of luck .
