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.

Hey,
I struggled a lot with rooting my q3000 (4.4) too. None of the one-click-root apps will work.
You will have to use SP flash tools.
Sometimes the scatter file given in the (http://forum.xda-developers.com/q3000/development/index-xolo-q3000-t2835037) thread wont work. For that I had to download MTK Droid Tool. It will create your build specific scatter file. use that and you will be able to flash the recovery fine.
Make sure you use a recovery for KK
Just follow the instructions given on the thread carefully and you'll manage to root your phone just fine.
Dont forget to thank the Devs :good::good:

Download previous version and just flash it using stock recovery or just go to updater and select update zip and let it flash
It is official way to do it manually. Without any root or twrp
And don't worry xiaomi gives warranty even on rooting device

thanx for replying.dude... i know the TWRP process. It has backup and restore option. But rooting v 7.2.3.0 Is little bit hard(have to use pc). I just want to know if there any process for backup and restoring process without root as i want to downgrade without root and i dont want to go service centre.... thank u
When flashing MIUI, it is recommended to flash it via stock recovery as if you flash it with Custom Recovery (TWRP), it will output errors and flashing won't succeed. If you want a clean start, I suggest flashing via fastboot.
Thus, download desired version of MIUI, and flash it via stock recovery itself.

If have already installed old twrp and want to install a newer version you can install it by this zip file using the old recovery then reboot
And if you want to install it for the first time you must use odin
The newest version is now available for Galaxy j7
