So, i'm "new" too.
First thing, you did send your message from a Galaxy Ace so in assume that you want to play with it?
you can search for your device in the right top of the page, there you select your phone and go with the banana (Dutch xD "gaan met die banaan")
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1164
That's the board for your phone. There you can find threads about new roms, themes, apps, etc.
As i read it you woud like to have another ROM, now for every device there are steps to follow, i suggest you to take a look @ the board for your device and look what you would like to put on your Ace. in most cases the steps are all in the ROM's thread, and feel free to ask someone if you don't know what you are doing. Anything is better than making a brick.

Michel

Hi,
If you just 'flopped' on those rom's and kernels, you where very lucky not to have an extra stone in your house.
The best way to learn things is to make mistakes, i am not a Pro either messed up two phones, but you'll learn while doing that...
Always check your system settings like kernel, hardware-build etc. example: a Galaxy Nexus is not just 'a Galaxy Nexus' there are a lot of differences between them, even if they look totaly the same. So if you don(t know what u are doing just ask someone, it won't hurt you or that person.
I know some people over here can be hard to newbies (n00bs) that's just the way it is. Imagine you are asked one question 1000 times a day... you'd be the same...
Your OS is (normally) ALWAYS Android
Your kernel is your "chassis"
Your ROM is the "engine"
If there is something where i can help you with i'll be there

xda 2

hi im new here.got an xda 2 and dont know where to start with it.or what it can do,and what apps i need.is it worth keeping or get an iphone.please help advise me on what i need
Hi my friend, do u mean XDA 2 (Alpine), or XDA Orbit 2 (Iolite)?
U can start reading and learning about your device:
XDA 2
XDA ORBIT 2
About the needs u have, only u know what you need or expectations you might have from your device.
Enjoy XDA.
omg......... iphone?????? dont you dare lol
as for apps and what it can do....... read the wiki, get used to ur device and what it can do using ur stock rom, dont change anything for 3 months... (if your a real noob)..... then if you want flash a cooked rom which will have more functionality, be quicker, more than likely more stable a lot of apps are free, esp on here
also goto sites like freewareppc etc as well as here (some duplicated of course)
Have fun

Dual boot two roms

Dual booting is possible in Android.
Is it possible to dual boot 2 roms on our.phone ?

Its just sad you know...
WHEN WILL YOU START READING!!!!!
It clearly says:
"BootManager will not work with Samsung devices that are not listed because of the way Samsung handles the boot partition. Motorola phone's with a locked bootloader will also not currently work. Check compatible phones above."
which you can find on:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.drx2.bootmanager
which is already provided on:
http://m.lifehacker.com/5826050/how-to-dual-boot-multiple-roms-on-your-android-phone
So start reading and stop asking!!!!
Also please change the thread name to [REQ] or [QUESTION]
It is misleading.

We need dual boot kernel For that
There are even multi boot kernels. I was using a g3 with multiboot kernel. I have personally tested it out myself and its good, however no1 has stepped out to compile a multiboot kernel. Anyway its not very important, worse come to worse, just use nandroid backups to restore and switch roms

Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda premium
Don't understand how u "research" cause last I checked the app used for Dual boot was Boot Manager and not Rom Manager.I already provided u with the info needed but since you dont want to read.
Do you know a thing known as google?
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=boot+manager+samsung
Go to the first link that is android market then go click on More info you'll get your answer.
And I'm sry to be rude but I request everyone to let him find this on his own.He just refuses to search anything before asking.

There's no need to be sowy mate! The guy is either thick, or just plain noob who doesn't want to use his gray matter for thinking and analyzing! Most of his post's are plain trolling & pointless. and thru such posts he has now become a "senior" post in just 3 months time! :banghead:

[Q] [q] install custom rom to my skyrocket sgs2 i7272 please helpp

I need help. Im a noob and i want to install the new rom for skyrocket (4.1.2) . My phone is running the official 4.0.4 , its not root, and i want to install the rom trought odin or other method that could help me, i need instruction step by step, i dont want to break my phone./ i intalled a cwm recovery. I have the zip file..
But im not sure if thats the roms with the aparrence of sgs3 jelly bean 4.1.2 , please help me
Please read the stickies. Vincom has tried to make them as helpful and easy to follow for users who are let's say "new to the process" . I could break it down for you, but doing some in depth reading on your own is certainly necessary based off your post. If you read thoroughly and still have remaining questions then come on back. Nobody wants to see you brick so read up.

First of all, listen to Mike. And btw, the one jelly bean rom that has touchwiz like the sgs3 is by this guy named mohan. Yeah, and look up some information on different roms before installing. Try out cyanogenmod, slim bean, and many others because you may like one better than the other haha.

Dude really this is your second post asking the same question what are you looking for someone to spoon feed you? Why don't you do a little research on your own? Then if you get stuck ask for help.

liste dude , dont waste my time reading if you not gonna write something to help , this forum is for ppl that can help and give ideas ok? Dont write on my post if u dont like it
If you have the zip file and have read the stickies, then in cwm you're going to factory reset, wipe/format data, system, and cache. Then install the rom. You'll have to then sign into Google and re-install your apps. Back everything up before you start
The stickies will have greater detail, but pay attention on how to do the wipes. And make sure the zip you have is for your specific device, all s2´s are not the same. If you use the wrong one you will brick you phone.
