Simply install a recovery (if it was like p990 on 2.3.4 bootloader is unlocked so simply search rom manager in the play store and install+flash recovery from inside the application).
Then download the rom file+google apps for ics (i didn't find if they are included in that rom).
Then reboot to recovery and wipe davilk cache+cache partition+wipe data. Then flash the rom + gapps(if necessary). Reboot and enjoy!
REMEMBER TO DO A BACKUP FROM INSIDE THE RECOVERY BEFORE DOING ANYTHING!!

I really thank u for the reply
If I'm not mistaken the process u just explained to me was for the ROMs "Already supported on the SU660" (which I'm having)
I wanted to ask u that there is this ROM called Paranoid Android 2.5 "SPECIFICALLY FOR THE P990".
As the Hardware is almost* similar to the SU660. I was wondering if u could explain to me THE STEPS TO MAKE IT COMPATIBLE ON MY SU660.
EDIT: [ROM][CM10][old|new bl] ParanoidAndroid v2.5 - build 04 [Jan 26] [STABLE ROM]
Important Notes u may wanna know:-
I rooted the device on 2.3.4 GB
Software Version : LG-SU660-V20j

what i would do in your case is go to the develpoment section and either flash a v20L official gingerbread update (kdz file, you will find an explanation thread how to flash it in there) or download an official froyo rom from original firmware section.
as far as i know you cant flash roms from PC, only basebands/ official updates and so. you need to flash roms through clockworkmod recovery.
concerning CM7 i use nightly builds. they are constantly updated with new stuff/ fixes etc, so its the very latest version of the rom. experimental mod is something you should not care about . and a stable build is basically a nightly that has been picked as a stable build.
cheers

don't use smartflash, it will format you entire data (sdcard internal). better use KDZ since it won't erase you data only system

Custom roms

Hi guys,
Well I'm a android user and I have a SE Arc S and I know quite a few things about flashing new roms, kernels, etc...
My girlfriend has a galaxy mini and she's complaning about the phone's performance. So I want to install a custom rom with a better performance but I know little about the "how to" in Samsung.
I've searched but I couldn't find any tutorial. Can someone post a link please?
Thanks
EDIT: Found the tutorials but in SE phone we have to unlock the bootloader, is it necessary on the Galaxy minis? Or is it just flashing through CWM recovery?!
Try here www.yagyagaire.blogspot.com I'm sure you'll find some info
If you have understood methods then Try flashing CM7 (or ROMs based on cm7) for best customizations or try Emanon v6 for touchwiz look and better stability....

[Q] The best way for a migration to CyanogenMod from stock ICS 4.0.4

>>>> WARNING <<<< Noob inside ​
Hello everybody
Please forgive me if my english is not good
This is my first post in the XDA forum, and after more than day to read a lots of interresting posts, i'm completly lost...
I have a GN with the last stock rom from Samsung (4.0.4 XXLRG - Open Germany) and it's rooted.
When i look into the XDA CyanogenMod thread, I read that:
- I STRONGLY RECOMMEND TO FLASH FROM A CF-ROOTED STOCK GINGERBREAD ROM, JUST TO AVOID YOU HARD BRICKS.
And in the CynogenMod Wiki, this:
- This guide assumes the device is already running stock Ice Cream Sandwich available from Samsung. If the Samsung Galaxy Note already has the ClockworkMod Recovery installed, skip this section.
I'm confused....
What's the best way to install CM9 on my note ?
> going back to a "safe" GB rom ?
> keeping my Stock rooted ICS rom and start the install of CM9 ?
Thank you in advance for your replys.

Download Stock GB Rom from Dr. Ketan's page
Flash that using PC Odin
After flash do wipe from recovery
Root + CWM from chainfire's thread(use search feature )
After CWM, put CM9 zip in SD card and flash(instructions available if you search :highfive
Don't flash from stock ICS because of emmc brickbug :sillyagain search will help here )

My worm suggestion is to go with 4.1.2.More stable and everything works.
You can flash 4.2.1 without wipe over this(not recomended).But there will be a time till 4.2.1 be fully functional.
Try 4.1.2 you won't regret.
Many regards
Thx for reply
I'll try 4.1.2 and in the future I'll try 4.2.1 if i want it... xD
For installation... can I flash over a clean 2.3.6 directly or i need flash a JB or ICS first (as CM)?

You can flash over a clean 2.3.6 but first read tutorials. Basics:
1. Get root permisions
2. Install CWM
3. Get your ROM (zip file).
4. Then follow ROM installation intructions.
Hi again,
I install 4.1.2 before and all was ok... then try 4.2.1 and had very problems
Install from CWM it's ok, but when reboot and start config... only have this messages:
"Installatiewizard is gestopt"
And FC, FC, FC.....
Of course i try to install 4 times and ALWAYS I did 3 wipes....
Can help me pls?
I can not create a new user in the terminal (pm create-user name) and I can not create a new user with the user managemed app, my question is if I am doing any wrong or if this ROM (Beast 4.2.1-20121214) can not have multi user.
Sorry for my english, but it is not my first language.

If you are rooted then just flash ultimatum ROM .zip file
It has AROMA installer and it will ask you which kernel to install.
If you want to flash kernel separately then you can find the files on Ultimatum ROM page itself.
Glad you replied me bro
Thanks alot for the reply..
Sir
While Flashing Kernels, Should i look into BaseBand or Something related to it. I have DDKQ8. Well this ROM supports this ? How to check that
For installing CM 10.1 or 11, Latest CWM version i required. So for installing CM 7.2 Is CWM 5.2.0.6 is enough ? or i need to upgrade ?
Waiting for ur Helping Hands..

If you are running a Stock rom, root your device and flash CWM5 and then you'll be able to upgrade your firmware
With CWM5 (Stock rom e.g.) you can flash directly CM10.x and viceversa, so:
CMW5.x >>> Stock Roms/CM7.x/CM9./CM10.x
CMW6.x >>> CM11/Omni/Android 4.4.x
