i used all the alphas so i would suggest you not to update right now as you will complain and will go back to gingerbread within 1-2 days [even less].. its in dev stage.. so let it be daily usable and then update....
if you are very much eager to update it then you have to follow same procedure used for installing custom roms.. do take backup of current rom as it will wipe [format] all stuffs

I'm just putting this bit of some a**hole-y advice:
If you don't know how to downgrade back to GB, you shouldn't really flash ICS.

its easy....download any rom of 2.3.x u want to install
put it into ur sdcard
open ur phone in recovery mode
chose install zip from sdcard
select the zip file u downloaded
let it install
then do a factory reset from recovery and wipe cache then reboot n u will be booting in 2.3.x

the legacy version of 4.0.1 works kinda good
i.ve installed nova launcher etc
and it works great only some bugs
Are you looking to me?? i have an chinese ARMY !! (-(-(-.-)-)-)

Please help for Samsung galaxy ace downgrade 4.0.1 to 2.3.6
can somebody help
i have s3 evolution 4.0.1 in my galacy ace but battery backup is not good
i want to downgrade my ace 4.0.1 to 2.3.6 gingerbread

If its rooted then it has clock work mod recovery install, so just install rom manager from market and select reboot into recovery, have the custom rom's zip copied on your memory card, then after rebooting into recovery do wipe data and reset then select install zip from memory card and select the copied .zip file and it gets install new rom. Zeus is good custom rom, marvel v7 is also good

to flash any rom do we need to have cyanogen mod installed or it can be flashed independently??

No you just need to have root access and cwm recovery.just remember to do full wipe before flashing a rom.

I think that you have not quite understand.whichever rom you are going to flash has a specific base.for example zeus has 2.3.4 v20o as a base.when you flash it your phone will have 2.3.4 v20o as a base.what you had before is irrelevant.since you flash a different based rom your firmware will change.take a look at the noob how to that i posted above.it refers to kernels and bases.if you flash nova rom for example then you go back to 2.2.2 froyo.if you flash miui you have 2.3.7.it foesn't matterwhat you have now.try to find some things on your own because we went way off topic and the moderator will close the thread.search is your assistant.

once youre rooted, it dosent matter what base youre using..... cos when you flash a rom you flash together with the base so it changes your whole phone software..... so its no problem switching between bases, you can even flash back froyo/ donut and go back to gb if you want.... but make sure you do your full wipes...
for roms,once rooted, only the type of device is specific.... type of base is not....(unless specified)
eg. you cannot flash an ics rom made for htc evo on your OB but what you can do is flash any kind of rom with any kind of base which was made specifically for OB
again, please do read...

Short answer is no. All stock ics kernels are affected. Flash a safe gb kernel before flashing lq2.
Check you're other thread, there's some good info there now.

[Q] Newbies On Rom & Root

hi guys im new to roms , kernels and roots. So what i have is a samsung galaxy note which is kinda outdated using gingerbread 2.3.6. Since i saw lots of post about fantastic rom such as the rocketrom , alliancerom and alot more and they also come with JellyBeans.
The main problem i facing is , i would like to know about the facts that after playing with roms what will happen to my phone ? i mean in future will the devices gone wild or maybe dead. I have no idea wth that , so i hope someone enable to give me some advices and consequences of doing these. Any helpful tips will be much appreciate. =)
i wish to change my phone into rocketrom with the latest version of it. so is there any kernels that i can use which is absolutely stable & brickfree.
THANKS FOR ANY HELPFUL TIPS =)

running GB... and want to go to JB
1. root
2. install CWM
3. download Rocket rom on to storage
4. boot into cwm
5. wipe data factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, format /system
5. install the rom
do a lot of reading

Playing with roms doesnt make your phone go wild or get bricked until u flash a rom in a wrong way
And you always need to be on a safe kernel before u flash a rom
As u are on gb,all stock gb roms are safe to flash..so root your phone and get cwm
Then do wipes and flash the rom

All gb roms are safe to flash..so just get rooted and flash rocketrom
And rocketrom comes with a safe and brickfree kernel,so its not required to flash another kernel after u flash rocketrom
And i guess there are no other kernels compatible with jb roms other than the philz kernel that comes with the rom

i second that.. use Philz kernel that comes with the rom. Tested i flashed Hydracore and my phone wont boot. had to flash back RRv2 JB.

hydracore v7 does not work with the tw based roms jb as of now. and will not work until an official jb rom is released.

btw how bout kernel which fits properly without brick with RocketRom ICS V12 :laugh::laugh::laugh:

You mean to say that no need to flash any other kernel just copying the rom in sd card and then going into recovery then wipe all user data, cache, delvik cache, and data and system and "PRELOAD". And then flashing the rom. Right?

yes u can go ahead do all the wipes n install sweet rom…
