Im new to the android community and phones. I bought an Inspire with gingerbread (2.3.3) and would like to add cyanogenmod to it but the tutorials look so "harmfull" they scare me away so i have some question.
Can i downgrade from 2.3 to android v1?
Have anyone here rooted and flashed the same phone I have?
What is "radio? Can I change it to another one? how can I tell if it will work with my carrier?
please, please, please. READ
these questions you are asking concern me
1. you dont downgrade to v1....because it doesnt exist
2. we all have the same phone as you, otherwise we wouldnt have an inspire section
3. there is an entire thread dedicated to this very subject....look in the dev section.
there are easy to follow guides, tutorials, and walkthroughs here, but you have to READ...there is ZERO excuse for not reading and comprehending this stuff. if it is too much for you, you should NOT be doing any of it, and leave your phone stock
This is why I said..im NEW with this... none of what you helped in some way.

then you have some READING to do. nobody here is going to hold your hand.
ALL the information you seek is already here, but you have to READ
Sorry if all you want is someone to hold your hand and spoonfeed information to you
NEW or not, it doesnt matter. I was NEW to this phone when i got it. I READ, the same way i have done with all my other phones. I READ to understand what i am doing and how to do it.
heres the first thing you should have read when you came to the inspire boards:

this question has come up several times in the last month. yes it works just fine
Hi, i just rotted the unit and everything was fine
So i decided to use, cyanogenmod, it installed
now i can make calls but it does not connect to the data network portion.
Any ideas?
I noticed the radio baseband is slighly different than the original. could it be?
Sorry. was quick. i entered the APN settings and it is now connecting.. just Edge....before (stock rom) i had "H" (guessing is 3G). Now it only connects to E (edge i assume).
The weird thing is that before whenever i was in an area with only edge It would not allow me to browse but now I can.
any idea jedi master?
you can try a different radio. look at the radio thread in the dev section
Sorry to bother you so much. I was able to solve the radio issue. Now, since the market app wasn't included i followed the guide on how to install gapps but after doing so i can't get pass the boot screen "touch the android to begin".
I try to wipe and reflash but still does not let me do it. Any ideas?
did you touch the android to begin?
Yes, sir. But it will still restart.
i try to wipe data and restart the process but same thing happens.
Tried taping the four corners and an still happening.
Someone said the the gapps file might be corrupted.
Right now cyanogenmod is a pain. is there a way to install another room or the stock one through recovery?
Thanks for all your help!

you can install any rom you like in recovery.
boot into recovery
go to mounts and storage
mount usb storage
on your computer, copy the rom zip onto the phone
back,
install zip file from sdcard
browse to rom zip
confirm flash
Thank you. I am downloading RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_Cingular_US_2.47.502.7_Radio_12.56.60.25_26.10.04.03_M_release_200368_signed.exe.... is this the correct stock?
Does it have to be on ZIP? if so, where can i find stock roms?

no. this will leave you an unrooted stock rom
why dont you browse the dev forum here and look at all the ROM offerings?
I think i will just go with the stock one and the do the same procedure (using the hack kit and just leave it stock rooted....
would that be ok?

Apologies for not doing a more thorough search but I am on a strict time limit. I MUST return my device to the store today. I have n8013 rooted with custom recovery and all that. I downloaded TriangleAway to reset my flash counter. I am really just not too familiar with this device and hadn't had much time to use it. Basically what I need is a complete restore, original recovery, and flash counter at zero. If someone could PLEASE point me in the right direction I would very much appreciate it!

I'm just going to ask again. I need my device to be in an out-of-the-box state before the store closes tonight. I apologize that I don't have the time to sift through and search all these threads, normally I like doing that anyway it relaxes me. But can someone please tell me what I need to do from start to finish to 1)get unrooted stock rom 2)stock recovery 3)binary counter back to zero...so that I may be able to get this done tonight? Thanks to the two who already posted, but I really need some sort of consolidated how-to. It wouldn't be in vain either, as it could get stickied for anyone in the future who may have the same issue.

Ok, this is a Question, My tablet is a ("Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, P5113, with a rooted Android 4.1.1") and i would like to chang it to "jellybean" or some other, ROM, can this be done without me unrooting, as you can see, i have no idea what i'm doing but I will learn how.
This is why I bought this tablet, just to see what i can do. So if you can, Please show me where i can get the Info on how to do this, I have read alot in here on rooting "ect" but i seam to not find anything on this, maybe i'm blind or just to old....
You already on jelly bean..
even if you want to change your rom into an official jelly bean rom, you dont need to unroot your tab..
find an aokp jb ROM in dev section, do full wipe, flash new ROM w/correct gapps. enjoy.
you're already running jb, but it's a stock/rooted official jb ROM ;]
you're already rooted, that won't change unless you flash a stock jb firmware via Odin.

Are you sure you're on a "rooted" ROM? Sounds to me like you have root and unroot confused. Did you buy the Tab new? Is it how it came from the store? If so you are not rooted. Rooting is what one does in order to be able to flash custom ROMs.
I recommend you plan on spending a few weeks just reading about all of this and taking notes (really, cutting and pasting into a document on your pc, that's what I do) before you do anything. That's what I'm doing because doing all of this on the Tab is so much different than doing it on my phone, I really have a lot to learn about Odin, flash counters, Triangle Away, etc....

Running CM10.1 on my GT-P3113
Hello!
Is there any guide that can show me how I can flash a stock ROM on my HTC One? I just want to change one stock rom with another one, that's all. I don't want to unlock it, root it, customize it or anything like that...
I have an unlocked phone bought from a phone company. When I start it, it shows the phone company's logo etc, instead of the Quietly brilliant thing etc. But it is not locked on that network.
So, I want to flash it with a stock ROM and upgrade to 4.2 while I do this. I am already downloading "Stock_Odex_2.24.709.1_Final.zip".
I have found a lot of tutorials on unlocking, custom ROM, changin recovery etc, but I just want to change one stock ROM with another stock ROM, that's all.
Can someone point me in the right direction please?
Thank you,
Isro
It isn't possible to flash another ROM, neither Custom nor Stock, without having root access. I'm sorry but to remove the branding, you have to root your phone.

Hey guys.. I'm currently on 4.4.2 stock rooted with xposed and Franco and would like to upgrade to 4.4.3.
I don't have access to a computer at the moment... So what would be the easiest way or anyway for that matter to upgrade?
Sorry if this a noob question but I am not super android savvy to be honest. Any help would be amazing.
If there was a guide or something to follow for someone in my position....
Thanks for any help

you shouldnt do a single thing, nothing. not until you take some time to educate yourself first. if not, and you start messing around, youre gonna end up with a paperweight. seriously, im not being mean to you, im trying to be helpful. take some time, read about the basics, learn at least just what you need. start here http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...urce-guides-info-threads-linked-read-t2784527

Sorry it auto corrected. Yes you can flash a stick rooted rom. Such as the one from @bigxie that I linked but please try to heed @simms22 words. You always want to know what you are doing before you do it or you risk ending up with a paperweight. If you have this many questions flashing something new can wait until you are comfortable with what you are doing.
