can anyone give me step by step instructions on how I can remove safestrap? i'm fairly new at rooting and everything, I've tried installing CWM recovery and TWRP (both with no luck) which is why I resorted to safestrap, but that isn't working to install custom roms so I would like to remove it from my phone.

So, I'm installing an custom rom for the 1st time.
So, my phone and other details;
Samsung Galaxy S Plus
Android 2.3.5 Stock
SIM-Locked.
Wanting this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2315448
I know I lose the warranty, but i dont really care as there is like 2-3 months left.
I have some big questions, as im a noob!
1) Can being SIM-Locked cause any problems?
2) I read, that you don't have to root to install it.
3) How do I install it? I know something about root/Custom ROM's, but no idea about kernels/recoverys. Full tutorial if possible!
You need to install CWM recovery because You can flash new roms through it.. And for install CWM. You must have a rooted device. So Do this before installing any rom. Make sure You install rom of ur own device.
This is step by step guide of how to root ur device http://theunlockr.com/2012/05/29/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-s-plus-i9100/
This is guide of installing CWM or TWRP recovery.. I recommend u to install CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2463347
After completing this two process u can install any rom by following the instructions given in the OP of the rom.
First, apologies for asking another "how to flash" , like the various existing threads. I had already hard bricked the same tab once, don't want it to happen again. I was able to get a used motherboard for this tab and got it to work. Currently on 4.2.1, build no. JOP40D.US_epad-10.6.1.31-20130823
I really would like some one who has the same tab as mine, to give me a step by step guide ( or point me to an existing link ) on how to flash recovery ( cwm or twrp, what version, fast-boot method or via rom manager, goo manager? etc ) after unlocking the boot-loader, and then flashing the custom ROM, installing the kernel. Looking to install either Omni ROM or CM11.

Anyone?
Howdy y'all. I bricked my old G2 D800, I don't want a repeat with the new one. I tried doing all the research I could. I have a new D800, 10d, 4.4.2. I want CM11, tried reading the threads on that and custom recovery. I just need a little help to make sure I have the order of operations down pat before I crash another. I've rooted and flashed ROMs before, but not with th locked boot loader and security AT&T has.
Please just correct me if I'm wrong. Through the threads I have read I believe this is what I am to do.
1.) Flash my 4.4.2 back to 4.2.2 using LG FT
2.) Root using IO23
3.) Download Flashify & install TWRP 2.7.7 with Loki
4.) Follow steps to install CM 10.2
5.) Follow steps to install CM 11
Of course make backup once 4.2.2 plus root and TWRP is achieved before trying CM. I just want CM like I've had on previous phones. Thanks in advance.
All is good back to being ROM junkie. Anyone who does read and wishes to flash custom roms and get custom recovery on KK. Obtain root via IOroot25, then use AutoRec Recovery Installer for TWRP recovery.
Hi! Noob here, just wanna ask some questions.
Is rooting different with flashing a custom recovery, or do when we root we automatically installs custom recovery to our device?
And if I am rooting my phone using Framaroot, does it install a custom recovery to my device? Thanks

UPDATE: Have been figured this out. So, Rooting doesnt mean installing a custom recovery.
Ho, I wanted to install on my galaxy wonder (gt-1185) CM12 (with this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...cyanogenmod-12-0-20141230-unofficial-t2988830). I installed CMW as the guide says but my phone isn't rooted. Can I continue to install CM12 without root? Id no, how i root my phone with the new recovery (CMW)
IN CWM, typically there is an Option to Root the Device. Either way, you can proceed with Installing CM as the Guide indicates.
