1. Read the new owners guide.
2. This forum is about learning things by yourself. Don't expect to be spoonfed.
3. Custom ROM always =Rooted mind you.

I read the guide but i'm desperate,do you recommend something? can u post the link of the better rom and kernel that i can use? im noob in android world
I can't recommend anything man. Everything is good.
You have to discover by yourself what suits your needs.

the new user guide (that i wrote) teaches about stickies! and where to find them!
find the stickies in the captivate general, q&a and dev forums they have all the answers you are looking for and way more.
go. read. learn.
this is really basic stuff. At&t does not like you installing apps not from the market "its called side loading" you need to be rooted to fix it and there are pleanty of guides "one click root has an option to enable non market apps" to get a different rom go to the dev sectoin chose a rom and follow the simple directions or for a guide for the entire process http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884364
Assuming what you meant was that you want ATT's crap taken off and a new ROM...
Why would you not want your device rooted? If voiding your warranty is a concern it's fine, there are plenty of methods to return back to stock Eclair/Froyo. And there really isn't a ROM out there that's head and shoulders over the rest, you're going to have to play around and see which one you like the feel of the best. Try out a different ROM every couple of days and see how you like it.

If you are asking someone to help you build a rom well... I don't think that will happen. You can go to samfirmwares.com and download a stock i9000 rom, but without root you, and if you don't know how to build to incorporate the home button and haptic feedback fixes, your phone won't work right. My suggestion is to go to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790
They are all stock i9000 roms with only busybox and root installed. I'm using the stock jvh on my captivate, at the moment, and it works great. You will have to deal with root. It's better to be rooted anyway.

Only replying to that small part of your post, and correcting you by saying no, you don't need to be rooted to sideload applications. SWM (Sideload Wonder Machine) can do it so long as you have the drivers installed and USB Debugging on. I installed several applications as soon as I got the phone, long before I ever rooted my phone, much less installed a custom ROM on it.

Why didn't you use google? There are plenty of places that explain how to root that aren't on this site, which is more an "advanced" place anyways(I use that term loosely, but I get the idea that people here assume you know a little about your phone).
Check out MobileTechVideos, the guy who does those had a three-part, in-depth ROM flash set of videos that explain exactly how to use One-Click to Root.
Edit:
Christ dude, use some decent punctuation and at least attempt to be succinct in your requests. Freaking out isn't going to get you anywhere.

Hi all! i wanted to start a FAQ thread because im sick of seeing/reading threads like "what is best custom ROM? please help", "need OC help, please help!" and other very useless threads. i come acrcoss these kind of threads almost every day :/ thats why i want to make this thread to minimize the amount of useless threads
red = question color
green = answer color
@please make this thread sticky so it will always remain at the top
FAQ
1.) what ROM is best/stable/battery saver/fastest?
this is the MOST asked question of all time and short answer is: test every available ROM! everybody has their opinion and it is just stupid to make this kind of thread because most likely it is going to end up like this:
user24 says: InDroid is the best use that!
user25 says: lestatious is the best use that!
user26 says: no use kyrillos, its the best!
so DONT post threads like that!
2.) best filesystems to use?
most of the people say its:
stl6 ext4
stl7 ext4
stl8 ext2
3.) what is the best stock ROM?
almost everybody recommends JPM
4.) is there going to be official 2.3?
most likely NO!
5.) im from another SG forum and id like to flash SG3 ROM, can i do it? we have very similar specs
you can do it but it wont work!
6.) OMG, help me, kies wont recognize my phone and i cant revert back to official firmware!
Kies wont recognize your phone if its rooted, if you have flashed a custom ROM or if you have flashed unofficial samsung ROM!, so you need to find out what is the official firmware in your country then find that firmware on www.samfirmware.com and flash it via odin
7.) is it dangerous to flash a custom ROM?
Most likely no but remember you are flashing on your own and the risks are still there no matter what
8.) How to root android 2.2 FROYO?
use super1clickRoot, z4root wont work on 2.2!
9.) how do i know if my phone is hard bricked?
you CANT enter recovery, download (using 3 button (power+vol down+home button)) or boot the phone
10.) my phone CAN enter download mode but cant boot, is it soft brick?
yes it is! just flash another ROM and everything should be ok
ill add more FAQ´s later but now i got other things to do oh and also you can suggest different kind of questions and answers you want me to add
also tell me what you think of this thread
ill add links here
- www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i5800.htm for official and un official firmwares
- http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i5800_galaxy_3-3395.php full SG3 specs

4.) is there going to be official 2.3?
most likely NO!
samsung customer service germany told me yes lol
but is still to be confirmed by other users ^^
anyway I don't understand why people get so mad because of such threads, if you hate them, just ignore them. no one forces you to read or even answer
I don't understand why people can't just use the search option as well. as they would geht their answer faster.

when i get confirmation that we will have 2.3 i will update it but now its most likely a no also im not mad im just stunned because there are mny threads like this and that but nobody even cares to search for them and then they spam the forum... this SHOULD decrease haree's job on this forum, he has many, many other forums that he is in charge and with this thread i hope that his job will become easier and the forums will be cleaner
and because there are some lazy guys who cant/wont use the search tool this will most likely answer thse answers
The search tool is useless, if you get even a work wrong you have to wait 30secs and search again which is kinda pretty lame. So this thread is useful, thanks jazux.

not all new roms last long you know..
I'm sure after the rom tutorial was out many new roms came up but lasted for less time..(no specific names please!)
So it wont matter much..
But if a new rom was really awesome and worth the entry in the poll haree could add a option(maybe) or could restart the poll with new option(definitely, this can be done by a mod)

Ok, there have been lots of threads lately on things that A2 can/cant do. And also how to? Why isnt? questions. In this thread i will try to explain few things, to the new to A2 and new to the community members.
1. Memory cards:
This must have been the most discussed topic on the forums, our beloved Atrix 2 has issues with class 10 memory cards, period. Few people are trying to resolve the issue with work arounds, but none seems to be successful.
(need to know what this class is all about? refer this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#Speed_Class_Rating)
2. Bootloader:
The bootloader is locked. If you want to know what bootloader is then refer to the noobs guide here (this should be the first thing that you should do after signing up with xda)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396650
and what does a locked bootloader mean to us noobs? it means no custom kernels which means no CM9/10, MIUI ports. So please dont ask for them.
Jimmy273 and Jimbridgman, the great grand dad of all A2's development are working on unlocking the bootloader, you can follow their work here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1328714
and my piece of advice just follow dont ask for ETA.
3. Official ICS OTA:
Well all the info the devs here have at the moment is exactly what you have, Q3 of 2012. If you have any further info you are welcome to share it. But there are already threads on "Motorola has updated their site reg ics updates" post there.
4. Miscellaneous:
If you have any doubts about changing certain settings, do the old school thing, refer to the users manual. Then refer the "Get Help" section in the motorola website.
go to the motorola mobility's website of your country, find your mobile then get into the get help section, look into faqs.
EA Games: As part of their Atrix 2 promotion campaign, Motorola India is offering 10 EA games for free, you need to download Redemption app from the market. And after that you can select 10 EA games from the listed games. Remember you still need to download game data for the games, which varies from 15mb to 500mb depending on the game title. And if you are not happy with the 2GB memory card then, it would be safe to get a new memory card then download the games and game data.
5. ICS leaks :
My piece of advice: Take a look at my signature which says "still on GB" despite all the temptations and all the leaks, i didnt flash any of the leaks. Why? simply because i know i may get into trouble, with my limited knowledge. If you are also a noob like me, hold your temptation for a little more time, the people who have flashed the leaks say its very stable, so official OTA may not be that far.
Still interested? Ok, if you are using AT&T A2 then please stay away from the leaks at least until some one finds a way with the back to 2.3.5 as some members have reported hard bricks trying to that exact thing. Need to know some more info, follow this thread. Thanks to farshaad for the heads up..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29011591
First of all there two versions of A2 with some hardware differences, MB865 and ME865, determine which one you have, check you device settings to know that. And those who are on SEARET or MEARET, you may be safe with the procedures discussed in these threads.. still only proceed if you know what you are playing with.. cause "help me i am stuck at a triangle logo with exclamation mark.." clearly tells that you havent followed the guide. Which makes the devs, a little frustrated.. any ways these are the threads..

What is the easiest way to get JB on my HOX?
I have ran into some that seem easy but only to find that I need a CID of HTC_xxx where mine is CWS_001. After a post directing me to this forum I have continued to try to find something to help me get JB and no luck. If there is a post that describes this please reply with it, or if anyone would be kind enough to post directions on how to do this that would be greatly appreciated.

You have to change your CID from the AT&T default before you can unlock anyway. Once you do that, it doesn't matter anymore.

Ok...all these noobs getting the phone for free are now pissing me off completely. If you want to overcome being a noob, you have to put in time to read and search. DO NOT DO ANYTHING BEFORE FEELING COMFORTABLE WITH THE INFORMATION AT HAND
Being a noob means you should have at least watched the noob video when signing up. If you did not you broke the first rule of XDA and you need to watch it. If you did watch it(which I suspect you did not) you would know to search and read before posting. The community is here to answer questions we all have, but not questions that have been answered over and over again. Nor to spoon feed you.
oh ****...i know whats going to happen after he gets it rooted.......Don't you?? i see a brick coming up from attempting to flash the EVO OTA.
zac507, there is no official jb sense for our phone. someone should of stated that in the first reply shame on ALL of you. if you read his OP you would see he already tried flashing the endeavoru jb rom which is why he got the CID error.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044729
Here are GREAT guides for noobs basically from start to finish here. When I was first starting I made a Q&A thread ONLY after reading enough to where I was confused and not confident in going forward without consulting others.....The key here is that you need to read and understand what you are doing first before you ask for help otherwise what good is the help?
Anyways, good luck reading and hopefully everything goes well

Thank you to everyone (except Chef). I will continue to read and do research before rooting or flashing my phone.
Chef, I have read through the forums quite a lot, asked others who have flashed other Android devices and watched many video tutorials on the subject. But before doing anything I wanted to ask a specific question that I did not see in the forums to get a clear and concise answer. Since I PAID for my phone, I do not want to brick it, hence my thread. I suggest you pull your over-inflated tech ego out of your swollen rear and learn to read. I said I was a noob at this. Noobs have questions. People on forums answer questions to help them. You, on the other hand, just act like a prick and contribute nothing to the thread. Thanks for absolutely no helpful information, please stop posting on any forum if this is how you do it.
Again, thank you to everyone else who replied. You were very helpful!

Where do I begin to correct this post?
First, let's start with the fact that you asked "what is the easiest way to get JB on HOX?" Well assuming you read, and searched and etc. you wouldn't need to ask that question considering you would have had the answer already because you in fact read and you would know that you can flash countless JB roms if bootloader unlocked and rooted.
My over inflated tech ego must have got in the way though. Even though you asked a question which is so similar to all the other JB related questions asked on this forum.
Obviously you need to continue to read(skimming and reading are different) considering the fact that you try to run an international RUU on your phone...
I was looking out for your best interest, if you want to take it to a personal level and call me a prick so be it, but I sure hope I help ingrained the fact that you need to read more before tinkering.
I think my rear is swollen I should go lay down
Zac, if you have any trouble or need help I for one would be willing to help, sent you a pm so we don't offend anyone else in here.

guys, its probably very off topic question, but I will have my HOX this friday,
we have JB over 4.2.1 over there, but we are currently in war with SOD because of google lol
awesome devs and kernel over there too
my question is
isnt the current stock from HOX cool enough?

Where the heck is "over there"? I assume some other device.
If somebody with 400+ posts on here doesn't get the purpose of custom ROMs, what the heck have you been doing here all this time?
does anyone have a link or download of the stock ics att file? I found a location on here, but the link wont work.
I got the atrix 2 stock on ics and I flashed a file, but wanted to revert to stock. I understand how to flash the file using rsd lite, but I cannot find anywhere the actual fastboot file.
any help would be appreciated...thanks

Google is your friend.
Here is where all the edison FXZ files are:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/list.php
A look in that thread that was posted in here would have told you, the official att FXZ file is this one :
http://sbfdownload.droid-developers.org/edison/InlineFlashing_Edison_67.21.125_CFC_P3_APBP.xml.zip
Please do a little looking on your own all these questions have been answered before!
P.S. It is even listed in big red letters and says Download in the post provided 2 posts above. That links to the same file I linked here

The big red download doesnt work!!! That is why I asked.
Im coming from htc one x, htc one, galaxy s3, and I have never been fussed at so much about asking a question about something I couldnt find....I know how to search. I find ALL kinds of stuff on restoring to gingerbread, but very limited on ICS, and the few spots I found, I couldnt find a link that worked.
I finally found a spot that had those 3 US fxz variants listed and just wanted to ask a simple question on which one to use.
I do search always prior to asking questions...and I do appologize I wasnt able to find the answers to my questions prior to these.
I do appreciate the help though, much...thank you!

Ah well, don't be offended. If you stick around here long enough, you'll get tired of reading/answering the same questions over, and over, and over again, too.
If I had a dollar for every time I said that, I'd be making money in a very weird way.
