Hi guys
My friend has bought a tattoo and wants it rooted and flashed with a custom rom.
It is a UK phone locked to orange.
What I want to know is what would be the best way to go about this and what would be the best custom rom to use?
I am not familiar with the flashing process but will pick that up.just reading up on gold cards etc
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help

It's a personal preference. You just need to try different ones to see what you like. It's like asking whats the best movie, everyone is gonna have there own opinion. But a good stable rom would by cyanogen 4.0.4.
i was wondering CM4.0.4/CM4.1.11.1/CM4.1.99/akirah1.6. which of this is the better pick?

Well the phone is from Europe i assume ?? if so i would just go for 2.2 froyo (JPY) or 2.1 Eclair (JPU) as upgrades have been officially released, and they wont think anything of it if you have one of them... where as a custom ROM would raise some eyebrows lol.
Hi guys, first of all im sorry if the questions i ask are simple and straight forward, im not used to the galaxy s as i use HTC and my friend wants me to update hes phone and so i want to cover all the basics before i agree and go ahead, from what i know the phone is not rooted and dont know if its locked or not but any sim works with the phone, its currently running 2.1 and i would like to update it to ICS Rom, either of the these two.

Then download the ROM i would prefer ICS333 it is better...
put the zip in storage ...Flash via CWM...Don't forget to wipe
Much thanks...the information you have given me has been great and very helpfull, now i know i am all set..
Thanks again, appreciate it
Sorry but the JVT Rom is just for 2.3.6 and 2.3.5, there isnt any for 2.3.3, just want some clarification.
EDIT:
I got the phone onto GB and flashed new ICS Rom, thanks again for the help and useful links..

What was your ROM before, stock ? custom? please be a little more specific. If it was a stock ROM you shouldnt be flashing custom ROM's without the knowledge of how to return your phone to its original firmware. Search the xda forums for your answers as there are many good threads, I would recommend starting with this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551156 to help arm you with some knowledge. Goodluck.

Use Odin to flash to stock firmware. And next time make a backup from your stock ROM using CWM.
Hey everyone,
I am just wondering if there's a guide for rooting the HTC One running on 4.3 update also it's an AT&T carrier if that helps. If someone can link me to a good guide including backing up and saving what I have on the phone currently. I'm also wondering once I do root my phone, what ROM is a good and stable one to use for a first timer. Just let me know, I appreciate it!
