Hi,
I have a Samsung Galaxy s3 4G Telstra and was going to root it.
Can someone please explain the process to unroot it once an update is released?
I know 4.1.2 jellybean is going to be released soon and i saw this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2066767&page=3 but am unsure if it is branded or stock?
Also what is the best application to make a full backup of all apps and data?
Cheers
Stop wasting space&time and start using search button& brain instead.... Dozen of same useless threads asking same things over and over again......
Seriously??? It's not so complicated...
My advise: create One thread and name it "I'm a total Noob and have million questions" and post all your issues there....
Point taken but could have been said a bit nicer.

Hello all, I am running madoco desire, and wondering if I will get the froyo update or will I have to download and install it? I am assuming it will clear my rom and all my apps right. Now if i reinstall the rom will it negate the new update? or just not work? I have used search, and read about 1000 threads. Thanks so much.
Did you know there is a QUESTION & Answer section in the forums?
Get used to the noob posts guys. We will be seeing them all week. I suggest just ignoring the thread. A mod will move it for you.

The update will only come to users of stock 2.1. It will in no way shape or form be compatible with desire rom.
How sad for the community...
What a bunch of @@%@%%@@
OK yes I do know there is a q&a section, I have read and searched in there. Not very clear answers though. If it is such a bother to help someone, then how about not being on this site! I am sure all of you at one time or another were starting out. I read this forum daily, have its app, and keep up to date for the most part. I just wast completely sure of one thing. I support a few of the DEVS on here with contributions when I can, I am just glad it isn't one of you!
hey, im sorry but im a total noob at this, but i wanted to find out how to root and load a custom rom onto my cdma hero...i was going to use the universal 1-click root...i would post a link to it, but since im new its restricted...i have 2.1
is this the best way? and once i do that, exactly how do i get the custom roms installed on my hero? also, what is the best/fastest/most reliable rom for the hero?
please exlapin in detail...as i dont know anything really, i just started looking into this the other night...
thanks
Hey, welcome to XDA! When you say "please explain in detail", it turns out that many people have already done this for you. Next time before you post, please use the Search function of this forum, and read the titles of some of the threads here. You can almost always find any answer you are looking for...without having to post a question that has already been answered day after day for hundreds of others before.
Ok enough of the lecture
This post here will be a great one for you to get started with. Should tell you lots of things that newbies want to know: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=717416
First of all, hello. I am basically a very, VERY huge newbie that just bought an Samsung Galaxy S I9000B and I would like to start to understand specific terms used in this forums (for example, XXJBA ROM, rooting). Can anyone give me a starting guide about this ? I intend to update my phone to android 2.3.3 but I don't know if it's possible (it is a customized one from a Brazilian Carrier called VIVO and if possible I want to remove everything). So I don't know even where to start. Any guides, specific threads, advices, tips, anything to start ?
Thank you,
Amid
Download an app from the market called 'root and me'. It's a great guide for beginners

Okay, thanks. Let me read all those threads and guides than I will be back for more. Thank you again.
BTW, not wanting to rush things but very curious: will I be able to update my phone I9000B to Android 2.3.3 ? Will the B in the end of the model destroy my hopes ? Just a quick answer, don't need to detail it at this point.
Hello again,
I've read the suggested threads and some other material, included the root and me app information. Now I know that the first step to clean my SGS is to root it. The application don't exactly specify which method should I use: SuperOneClick or Z4root. I understand the SuperOneClick is the old method, more dangerous and Z4Root is a new app that does the job but required USB debugging or something like that. So here is the next question (this way, I will be able to create a stick for all newbies, just by tracing my steps): Which method should I use ? Repeating myself, I have a Samsung Galaxy S, Model Number: GT-I9000B, Firmware version 2.2, Vivo Carrier (from Brazil), Baseband Version I9000BBVJJPD, Build number FROYO.VJJPD.
Thank you very much again.

Hi again guys,
No answer yet ? Really ? Am I doing something wrong ? Am I in the wrong forum (I was directed to this forum from androidz.com.br) ? I've tried to find the answers searching other topics but the search function is not very useful in forums. Also, there is no sticky here to help newbies.
The reason I was asking here is because I can't find answers in other places. I don't dare to simply trial and error, which is what I normally do when I have multiple choices, because I am afraid of bricking my phone; It's not that I am lazy to look for answer in other places; I simply can't find them.
Can someone help a newbie or at least point me to an updated guide ?
Thank you very much,
Amid

Get the phone and slowly you will get familiar to it.
I hope ur talking about the rooted apps here,that would be no problem once u get easy with the handset.
Piracy is not a good thing..developers put in a lot of time and effort in their work,respect it and pay for it.
Rooting n modding is not for Cr****. Rooting is to just get extra privilege on note, for making it more customise your device.
and note, such things(Cra**/Piracy) are banned over XDA
Ok, thanks guys.. thats what i mean, the rooted apps.. But do you guys suggest to me that I should have my phone rooted, once i got my phone? Or is it just ok to leave it as is? Thanks!

The phone's great as is. If you're a newb, like I was when I bought my Note (and probably still am), I'd recommend sticking with stock for a bit until you familiarize yourself with everything your phone can do.
I bought a Note when it released in the beginning of December and I still haven't rooted my phone. Although I'm a little conservative that way.
One thread you might really want to read is the Tips and Tricks thread.
Ok, thanks for the reply again! I guess I'll just have to get one first, explore it, read the forums. Then see what happens then. How about the ROMS?

Very helpful in term of rooting and flashing

Feel free to head over to the development section and do some reading, but for what you are asking YOU DO NOT NEED TO POST.
There's a lot to learn in here, and a lot of very helpful people, but I PROMISE you that ALL of your questions have been answered before.
Those in here who aren't part of active development are all people who went from zero knowledge/understanding of android to merrily flashing every rom under the sun, rooting and re-rooting their devices into hard-brick heaven.
Read. Read more.
Stop complaining, and read more. If you have questions, use the search function. Do it again, but phrase your search string differently.
If none of this works, ask your question politely and concisely, and don't post to the dev section unless you have something useful to contribute.
P.S. If you're not a native english speaker, I apologise from the bottom of my heart, I didn't mean to offend.
If you are a native english speaker, learn how to write/speak like a human being instead of the stream of consciousness of a whiney twelve year old who's had his x-box taken away.
I concur!

I think that you should go through the threads which are meant for newcomers who want to play with their phone and roms so that you know how to recover your phone if something goes wrong because doing things without proper knowledge can change your phone into a beautiful paper weight.Go through the following thread which can give a clear idea about flashing official ICS for Germany but I strongly advice to think and proceed or probably wait for your country's turn to get official ICS...
Anyways here is the link...

Unfortunately if you are sick of your note, i am not sure that just putting a new ROM on there is going to change your mind
You should sell it whilst its still worth something.
