Done. Always check forum stickies before opening a new thread. New threads are a LAST RESORT! This is the same at almost any forum ever.

Hello,
I am new to this forum and I just got an At&T Tilt for Christmas and I wanted to get it so it has the HTC Kaiser ROM running on it. So I am overwhelmed with the information on the site and was wondering where to go to get started with the hacking process and if it is going to be easy for a noob.
Thanks for all your help,

Read the sticky threads in the upgrading section thoroughly and enjoy. Be careful, this stuff is addictive
Edit: this is also a good thread to read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=356895
So, I am a newbie ... a newbie willing to learn Up until now, I've been using the P1i and hacked it successfully. The windows OS however is a new ball game!
I had the Xperia in hand for a couple of days, had a feel of it and gave it back to a friend. I now intend to take it back and play with it!
I intend on getting my phone to a state as seen in the video/ pictures on:
Xperience v4.5 Landscape (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485624&highlight=Touch+IT+4.5)
Touch-IT 7 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503732)
XPERIA Gen II (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497092)
Wanting to see my phone as mentioned above, I've been searching and reading the forums for some days now. Aside from getting more fascinated, I have not really managed to understand a whole lot and hence am looking forward to helpful folks out here to lead me initially through my first couple of experiments.
On that note, can some one first tell me what is Hard SPL and if I MUST necessarily do it before I start modifying my X1?
Hard-SPL for Xperia X1 - Released! (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218)
I noticed this huge "THE XPERIA X1 LIBRARY" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=477801) and was wondering which of those I must use?
And finally, is there a starters/ toddlers/ newbies guide to work through to my first real mod? With so many materials out here, its really difficult to understand the real starting point!
Details of my device:
ROM Version: 1.02.931.3
Date : 08/29/08
Radio Version: 1.06.25.29
Soft Id: 1213.6450
Soft Version: R1AA017
Customization Id:1215-1832
Custom.. Version:R15Awhat
Custom.. Variant:Generic UK
Thanks in advance for any help
PS. If someone can point me to thread for where I could get a start, that would be great ... something like what is hard spl and what are the first steps I should go through!
yeah, interesting... I have visited XDA-developers site many times since 2007. I have learned some of the stuffs reading through thousands of pages. But still learning... and GOOGLE....GOOGLE and GOOGLE.
I heard that somebody has made an ebook with all the stuffs you are asking and selling it for 99 Euro. Do you wanna buy?
Begin with the library!
the video biovolt posted help me out plenty and should be the same for all newbies. you will only thank him for doin it in the 1st place.
You definately need to HardSPL first before fashing a custom ROM...I recommend doing this because you are still using R1AA...
Anyway read the sticky Threads and you should find help!
The last thing: Nice to see you here, congrats to your first posting!
Yes I believe that you need to hard spl before a custom rom. But dont take my word for it, im still a newb

thats right mate and theis fellow put htis in dev instead of q N a
he is right
this is a dev zone go to this link and google
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567610
and go to his wiki it will tell you how if you have the g1 from google is is all ready root
wow ! This is a record ! 20 mins and no one has bashed the starter of this thread? Lmao !
Its all good though man.. just read up on ROOT, SPLS and Requirements.. if you read the guide on how to root your phone, you SHOULD be up and running the latest cyanogen mod rom within the next half an hour.. be sure to READ the directions carefully.. and if your not sure about something, scroll through some of the posts in the thread.. 9 xs out of 10 someone has asked your question, and has received an answer... if there are too many pages to read, like let's say maybe 40 or more, jus go to google, and search for your problem.. this site plus some others may pop up and offer you some help.. good luck and welcome to the community !
