Hello all and good morning!
I am fairly new to custom ROM installing and cannot find any info (updated) on installing a custom ROM to my SGH-T599 device!!!:crying: I could really use some help as the stock ROM for this "Galaxy 3 mini" knockoffs stock ROM is horrible.
I do have ODIN installed (v3.10.6) but am lost as how to begin to use it.
Here are some questions I have:
-How to download custom ROM?
-Is a backup already on my phone?
-Which ROM is best? (and compatible)
Thanks in advance for any help
EDIT: If i could just have an app or program to completely change the UI of my phone that would work too

Hello, im not into rooting, kernel and flash and stuff??
But i want to get better performence and TouchWiz 4.0 on my Samsung. So can u guys tell me what rooting really is? im a noob. And what i should use on my Samsung Galaxy S Plus if rootinh. And maybe how to get Touchwiz 4.0 instead of TouchWiz 3.0.
-Thanks guys
What is root
With root you have full acccess to the system.
You can modify the the hardware settings.
For get Touchwiz 4 you must install the touchwiz 4 manager:

My opinion:
When you have root you should install a recovery (CWM - Clockworkmod) ,
and flash a custom rom, because the stock rom (from the manufactur) is very buggy...
Press thanks
Hello, I'm some what experienced at flashing. Ya first u want to get root then you need a recovery installed such as clockwork mod. And a custom rom with the launcher you want would be ideal. Its not so much that the manufacturer's default software is bad. It just hinders u sometimes. ^_^
Hey guys, sorry but I cannot seem to find any information on this.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2, i9100, and I want to root it.
The problem I am having is that I am a [noob] yes I admitted it, but I cannot seem to find the ROM for my device.
I attached a screenshot of my device's about section.
Now I know that the steps are to use ODIN, and then download a CF root, but I can't seem to find my ROM. I am from an island called Trinidad & Tobago (Caribbean) and I have updated my device to ICS.
Can anyone please explain to me, what the hell do I have to do to root this device? I want to install a custom rom, if anyone can vouch for a nice smooth rom that looks great!
Thanks in advance!
Cheers!

This method needs to have an external card to your sii. Put the files both in external and internal card too. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719

Now if u want to install a custom rom install first a custom kernel for samsung ics 4.0.3 (not aokp aosp) from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1702166 and after install rom. U can do this using the temporary cwm u downloaded before. Is the safest way this because custom kernels had injected cwm and not using temporary cwm. Read well the instructions of the developer before installing , also check before installing a custom rom if it has a safe kernel because excists a brick bug at samsung roms 4.0.4 and +.
Hello everybody!
Just got a couple questions for ya,
ZTE Imperial (N9101) U.S.C.C.
1. Does anyone know where I can find any custom recoveries and nightly and/or stable Roms?
Samsung Axiom (SCH-R830) U.S.C.C.
2. Same problem for me, Does anyone know where I can find any custom recoveries and nightly and/or stable roms?
The ZTE I have found only the Apollo-Amazon stock Rom, otherwise absolutely nothing, only reason I was able to get it rooted "successfully" is from "SrSroot"
The Axiom all I have been able to find is a Odin flash-able CWM and root combo for this, and a Odin Flash-able debloated stock Rom.
These aren't over the top phones, but are still some great phones that are reliable, easy to use/work with and would be great starter/learner phones for my daughter now that she is wanting to get into modifying smartphones. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Hello All,
So I just had my Samsung SII plus (with NFC) rooted and find 2 recoveries installed CWM and TWRP, How can I safely remove CWM so I can have a smooth Flashing to a custom ROM?
I also find my self confused with acronymous used by TWRP but there is no description of it, can somebody tell me what is s2ve and s2vep, and which is better for my phone? I think the one installed is s2ve, how to exactly detrmine that?
Speaking of custom ROMs, is it better to choose Kitkat over lollipop as it's more stable ?
thanks.
Hi guys,
Coming from a Samsung galaxy S3 (lost phone ), I'm not all too familiar with the HTC, specifically the HTC Explorer. Just wondering what you guys recommend for a Custom ROM and a Recovery ROM
Recovery, I've used Clockwork and TeamWin.. is either better for PICO ?
For ROMs, in the past I've used Cyanogen Mod and liquid smooth.. neither did I like. Have used a couple others, but can't recall their names..
Is there a ROM that's close to being pure android (without all the bloat) ? or is there a particular favorite amongst the Explorer/PICO crowd ?
[EDIT] Can you use ODIN for HTC the same way I used it for Samsung S3 ?
Any suggestions would be super.
Thanks
I am using CM12.1 and it's awsom3.
EDIT: You cant use odin. for pico.
