will i need to root my device before i flash a custom rom?

not really, most customs roms now root the phone as part of the installation.
although you may need root, to get CWM / 2e Recovery unless you flash thru odin

thanks! i think i might flash darky's

you can do that via odin, and darkys wil root for you so all good.

the guide should help me through

Fix is flash via Odin stock Froyo with pit 512 and repartition checked .

[Q] Flashing CWM Recovery - can't see my phone model

Hello all! Hopefully, I put this thread in correct section. If not, please move it.
Anyway, here is my question.
I installed ROM Manager because I want to try some other ROMs on my SGS i9000 and when I want to flash the CWM Recovery, the only option I get is Google Nexus S. Is this normal? Should it show my model? Can there be any problems if I choose Google Nexus S option?

Thank you!
What ROM are you currently on ? if its a custom ROM you may have the Nexus Drivers, and that could be why it is only showing you that option.
there are many other ways of flashing a custom ROM so dont give up if ROM Manager starts acting up.
i personally prefer a flash with ODIN and all update Flashes through CWM
I recently upgraded from 2.2.1 to 2.3.3. Here you can see more info:
As far as i know, this is not a custom ROM, just leaked one. Or am I wrong? I upgraded it with ODIN too and it wasn't hard, I just think it would be even easier, if i didn't have to use the computer and could download ROMs directly on the phone.

Can't access CWM (with pics)

Seems my problem is so different from others, i think.
so here are some pics of it so you can understand my problem for i can't really describe it.

Did you do ever flash using Heimdall or Odin?
I'd rather go the procedure described for installing the OVERCOME rom. - It's pretty safe and if you follow all steps, you should end up with a fully working device.

I'm trying to use Odin now to flash I897UCKH3_I897UCKH3_I897UCKH3_HOME.tar
because apparently my phone is still in download mode and can take it. Now Odin just gives me another screenshot..
That screen is fine. KK4 is the official ginger bread. I'd download the .tar file put it in the PDA slot and let it flash. FYI all you need to do for root is flash a kernel with CWM baked in I believe.
Follow this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989 it's a one-click that will restore your phone from the "phone ! PC" screen.

THANKS GUYS!!!!
Erm, how do I flash the kernel with CWM?

Cant really understand what you have done. I recommend you to restock to stable 2.3.3 using odin orheimdall via download mode.

this what happens whenever i reboot or access CWM..
Did you ever find a solution for this? I'm stuck at the exact same place.
Obviously he patched the GB bootloader with froyo patch.
Many people got this, ignoring the fact that the patch is not for GB.
