Enjoying the device even with its heat issues. Came already rooted which saves me the trouble of doing that.
My problem is I wanted to install cwm on it to make a back up before I change anything too much like I do with my Samsung phone .
Device is unsupported . Is there a way to install cwm on this device ? I've searched the net and come up empty so far. I guess my goal is get a cyanogen style mod for is as I liked that on my little Samsung Europa.

I need some advice, I am considering unrooting because I want to sell my G2x because I am not fond of it anymore. I tried to unroot now, using the unlocker website that works in tandem with this forum. I still see Super User on my phone. I watched the video, and followed every set of the directions. What is going on with my phone?
Why would you want to unroot? I mean the buyer ( if you sell it ) probably wont even know? Just delete superuser

I might be selling it off to one of those websites that buys phones because I found one that might give $180.
SuperUser still shows up as a random APK image, not like the pirate logo. It shows a generic Android icon. I can only freeze super user. The app I downloaded to show root access is present or not says my phone is not rooted. I just am stuck in the LG-P999 Stock Af rom. I don't want Froyo anymore, I prefer going to Gingerbread for the sake of selling my phone.

I know I'm going to sound like a noob but I don't have any experience with samsung devices, I have spent most of my time with HTC, Motorola and Apple. I have spent 3hrs today searching and just keep getting more and more confused. The problem I'm having is phone is SLOW, I have never had a problem with a stock version of a phone like I have with this one. If I could possibly root I could just possibly remove some apps causing low memory and phone lag.

1 - does root come with ROM
2 - does CWM come with ROM
3 - I heard there was another program to use to update other than the Kies app? What is the name of the app?

Hi
You really should use a custom ROM.
You need to have a custom kernel to get root, CWM and the ability to flash any ROM you want.
Use Heimdall one click method or odin (via the forum stickies) to get the kernel.
Once there just flash any SGS4G ROM other than CM7 which is still under construction and uses a different system.

I was nervous to post this but then again, better to at least ask and to know than to let fear keep me in the dark (so to speak). So, the thing is this. i am trying to root my samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 wifi only which is 4.1.1 (GT-P3113) UECLK7 but i stumbled on a problem. Yes, huge thanks to Mr. Chainfire for giving us CF-Auto_Root, but when i put my tab in download mode, there was no blue status bar showing any progress, but it ended up saying
1. that i dont have OMAP4430 Driver installed and
2. that i dont have samsung usb driver installed.
i dont understand why and was wondering if anyone could please tell me how to fix this? and where can i find this OMAP4430 driver and samsung usb driver too? ive searced through google so much looking for this OMAP4430 driver till my eyes started burning. i really would appreciate the help. sincerely.

Hi, I am having the same problem with a Samsung Tab 2 7.0 GT-P3110 (wi-fi only). Could you please let me know where you were able to find the right driver?
Same, I can't get it to connect.

Install Samsung Kies, which will install the drivers for you. Then you can uninstall Kies unless you think you'll use it.
Sorry if i seem a bit curious but what was it after all, because you didn't cleared that up and what was it that it dose in the Android OS?! I ask this because i recently switched to Android 4.1 on tablet.Also why do you need to root a Samsung Tab? I know they have enough internal memory and if not an SD card will solve it.

Except if you want to use the external for apps one would need to be rooted. It is also good for using bloatware blockers and many other apps which require root access. It gives one more control over his/her device. Which is most of the fun of having an android device, IMO.

True, on a rooted device you can install non-market apps and if you have enough knowledge in Android modding and courage you can put more customized ROM-s.
The drawback : loose the client warantee from the producer.

I have a galaxy note 2 i605 Verizon yesterday I flashed the liquid smooth 4.2.2 ROM. My phone says storage space running out
When I go to Google play store and try to download a app it says insufficient space and when I hook up my phone to the computer via usb cable it shows where im connected on my phone but the computer doesnt reconize my i605. Can someone help me fix this issue please what do i need to do. When all of my google play apps update after they finish i expected to find them on my home screen but none of them was there.
Never mind I just figured it ALL out ....I'm a flasher now.....LOL. Just because I know how to and what to flash that still doesnt make me a dev....it didn't take me long to figure this out. I'm wanting to go a step further and that's to be able to figure out how to put a custom ROM together although I'm not sure how that's done but I want to learn. I want to thank the creator of XDA whada site! I would also like to thank all the devs for there hard work.

hello guys,
i have a wammy passion z+. running jb 4.2.1, quadcore 1.5ghz 1gb ram 4 gb rom. I have some probs with the device.
1)gps error = in googlemaps when i navigate, my exact location is not shown. it shows the location as 5 km away so i could not use its gps for navigation.
2)wifi-direct= in wifi setting wifi -direct is there. but i cant send or recieve files using the same. i tried 3rd party wifi direct apps to send files. but no use
3)buttons backlighting is not there= so when iam in a dark room i have to guess where the back button, menu or home button.
4)camera app =camera is 12 mp. but i cant get good pics at night. i think the flash is not properly working or it is not synced with the camera.
All i need is a good rom satisfying all these needs (pls add some more features like sony bravia, beats, good camera app, video player)
plsss help me...
I'm in the same boat. Forget custom ROMs, I'm even unable to root it. Tried auto root, motochopper etc but it doesn't get rooted.
Are you able to root it? If yes, could you let me know the procedure you followed please?
