Hi All ,
I have been doing my research for rooting and installing custom rom on my phone ( samsung galaxy ace duos gt-s6802 ) which is on gingerbread 2.3.6 .
Read a few guides and got the procedure for root and installing custom rom , downloaded packages for them as well .
But on few links i came across that one needs to unlock the bootloader for performing a successful root and upgrade .
I could not find any guides on how to unlock the bootloader for my specific device .
So , will unlocking the bootloader be required for my device ?
If yes then how should i go about it ?
Please help me proceed on this .
Thanks !!

I guess that CWM Recovery will take care of your problem with the bootloader, no?

You can use the tool from AdamOutler
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=41016954
If you anly gain root access you are oke no need to unlock te bootloader that may bring you into trouble as I got see:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2441632
When you have root access you need to add your subscriber to the APN list apns-conf.xml this file is placed /data/etc/
i used this list as a start http://code.google.com/p/piraterum/...e/system/etc/apns-international-conf.xml?r=47
You can use the app root browser to put the file in place.
There are also way's to re enable the APN editor of your Note but this din't work out verry well for everyone. So above way is more safe I.M.O. for more info see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044449

I bricked my SCH-I925U when I used CASUAL method..
Does your problem is blinking white and black screen after you power it on?
If you press power_volume up does it goes automatically to Odin download mode?
Thats my problem when bricked it.
And ODIN flashing tool doesn't help for NAND writing error..
What i do is I registered the device on Samsung and call their Customer rep and I say that It hangs and I don't know what to do..
If it is covered for warranty they will assist you how to ship back to them for repair..
hope your binary count is not triggered but my system status is custom..
Hope this will help
like I say first you have to root it with fRamroot...one of the exploits will work what is rooted you have to install a root browser and find the file named boot from recovery.p change that file to any other name and safe then you have to download the stuff the custom recovery and flash with Odin make sure you have the CyanogenMod rom downloaded to your SD cardthe only reason why you would get a nAd error.. is if its not rooted sorry I did not get any of the emails if you had sent them to me please re send and I can help you out as best I can

Hey Guys.... I accidentally bricked my SGH-T599N (Galaxy Exhibit)
Its showing the regular Firmware update screen... And I needed a way to flash back to stock without using Kies since kies is not recognizing the device... Please help... Thanks
Hi, thanks for using XDA Assist.
I will recommend you to search in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/exhibit-4g
You can try and flash a stock firmware via odin, since I assume you are able to get in download mode. Firmwares for your specific phone may be found here: www.sammobile.com
Good luck.

I did not find my firmware for my device... I don't know how is that possible. The link you gave me led to the device's page. It had the firmware I needed, though Goo was not accesable. Is there some other way I can get the file?
