After Gingerbread, will Sprint users be able to install custom ROMs that are currently available? Seems like I read someone was working on CM7 also.

I thought that "roms" also had whatever version of the os that it was based on in the rom. Am I getting this confused with the kernel?
Say you take a stock rom and add and subtract and tweak everything to your liking. How it's done I don't know but you make that into a flashable zip and there's your rom.
You would need to root again because you will lose that with the update. Unless you have root, you cant install custom roms.

I knew that, but I'm just not sure if I'm stuck on stock Gingerbread or still able to load a custom ROM that's currently available (without doing the EA24 flash)

I just bought a captivate. I rooted and unlocked it ( now t- mobile) . When I go to rom manager to make a recovery it doesn't recognize my device. Only gives option for i9000, epic, fascinate. What do I need to do to make a backup/ recovery?

Unfortunately there isn't an official clockworkmod recovery for the captivate. You'll need to either flash a kernel with cwm already embedded, or manually load up cwm on your SD card. What stock ROM are you on atm?

Sorry you sorta wrong on some things. There isn't official CWM for GB or Froyo. But there is for Eclair. Sounds like he is on GB at the moment. You are correct about having to flash a kernel with CWM in it.
I stand corrected...but yes unless your still on eclair or restore back to eclair, there isn't an official cwm

Yea, I am on GB 2.3.5 baseband UCKK4. I also have a vibrant.I am really surprised at how different the two phones are. I would like to put a custom rom on the cappy. What rom would you suggest? Kernel?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Suggesting ROMs ins't allow because you will most likely get arguing. Flash Corn Kernel and try out some custom stock ROMs if you don't know what you're doing. If you have an idea. I suggest ANY of the ICS ROMs
I would like a stable ICS rom. PM me with any suggestions.

Going through files in root browser I found a clockwork mod file. Also a zip vcremoveboot-CWM.zip. Not sure what it is? Ideas....

vcremoveboot is the revert zip for voltage control, in case you have unstable settings applied at boot.

Hello. This update is directly from lg? Can it be rooted? Thank you.
Sorry for the confusion, would this update be for the lg thrill/p925? Or the o3d/p920?
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda premium
It is for the p925 thrill. It can be updated straight from lg. It's official. Not sure on the root. Hopefully there are still a couple devs around to at least root, deodex and zipalign the official. Though the stock is fantastic I would love to load google now on it. One of my favorite features on my nexus 7.

The same All in Ones still work to flash the bootloaders and recovery.
Guys,
I'm on xbsa vx3d (custom ROM based on v30b).
I have a quick question for people with official ROM:
Do you have fancy 4G symbol all the time? I.e. before I used to have 3G when I was on 3G and H for HDSA (or whatever it's called). Now I have 4G all the time....
I remember long time ago, when we just got gingerbread some guy made a patch to show actual speed - 3G or H. That was nice...
Thanks!

Hello. Thanks for your response. I can not seem to get this rooted. Which method did you use? Thank you
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda premium
In the same boat. No matter what method I use it won't root. Even the methods from the O3D thread won't work.

Flash wkpark's bootloader from the o3d threads. From there, flash recovery, and then flash a superuser zip.
If no one beats me to it, I can upload a deodexed stock ROM this weekend.

YES, the bootloaders you will flash are unlocked, making it able to have the custom recovery installed. Installed the new 4.0.4 on my Thrill last night but did not try to root. Will be rooting tonight, I'll let you know how it goes.

Ok. Thank you. Please let me know if you use oshacking's all in one tool.
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda premium
I did use his tool. It was a little easier to understand than the original. When it says wait five seconds, count to five then put your battery back in. If you do it correctly it will vibrate when you insert it. If not, then re start the procedure. From here you can install the WKparks bootloaders and custom recovery. I installed the TWRP recovery manager, I like it way better than CWM. Easier to use IMO. After you install the recovery boot into it and make a backup. Install the Su_Bbox zip file on your SD card then boot back into recovery and install the zip. Voila! You are now rooted. Or save yourself a step and put it on your SD card before that. Lol. I am now rooted. I hope this helps ya.

Hi everyone, I'm new to your Droid Bionic forums but managed to quickly learn how to get full root on the 4.1.2 jb verizon update with the help of your great threads. I've also successfully installed safestrap 3.11 as well and now need a little clarification.
My question is:
Once I'm booted into safestrap 3.11, could I install any custom ROM on the stock slot or do I have to make a new ROM slot on 1 or 2 or 3 on my SD card and install custom roms from there?
I'm trying to install Wizzed Bean CN4 4.1.2

Dont install anything on your stock slot for the safety of your phone. Create rom slots, and install roms from there. I also answered the question of the whizzed bean, hope that helps!

Because of JB roms' problem with MHL I'd like to have fast option to revert back to ICS. I'll make a back up of it but first I'd like to learn how make recovery compatible .zip file with ICS rom. Can anybody explain me this? Are there any existing .zip ICS packages?
I think you can back up from CWM although its not possible in Ics

I`m just considering what will happens with CWM after flashing 10f? It`ll be replaced by original recovery?
try making a zip of ics rom. save it to your pc. flash to jb. install native cwm. Port the zio to a flashable one using Zaiben rom
