[Q] A beginner needs some help :/ ...

Hi, I was looking into rooting my phone and I would like to ask a few questions, which I would guess have been asked before...
1. Do some roms come pre-rooted?
2. Do custom roms support OTA updates?
3. How do I unlock my nexus by unlocking the bootloader, and use the stock rom?
ATM I am on 2.3.4 + Locked bootloader, plz help, as I dont really understand a lot of the tutorials on the internet + a lot of them are old

Good place to start

newbie asking for help.

I'm new to flashing cellphones. I've installed cm7 but i lost the ability to use the camera which i use constantly, i didn't back up my stock ics and now my phone is on gb and won't root. I know how to unroot my droid x since i've done it many times before... I want to go back to using the verizon ota ics. Can someone please help me find it, i'm in desperate need.
thanks

This is not the thread you are looking for. // Obi-Wan Kenobi
These threads are for the original Droid 1 and Milestone 1.
ps.: ALWAYS make a nandroid backup before messing around with your phone.
If you have Droid X, you should ask around HERE.

[Q] how to change the firmware?

hi, im new here, but i have a lot of experience flashing in my xperia x10. I've been reading about downgrading, upgrading firmwares between 10a to 10h, how to do it? is better to have one than another? i am not able to root my phone in my current firmware (10a), could i if upgrade to another one? thanks

How about searching and reading first, rather than expecting people to spoon-feed you the answers like a kid at school?

Go search, go read, go learn. Dont make noob topics.

Once that you know that firmware is changed by flashing, you already know some "key words" or "tags" to search a little

Stock Rom for Moto X? I've tried everything else

A guy sold me an ATT Moto X and he neglected to tell me it was rooted. So now I'm stuck with root that I don't really want on this phone. I tried using RSD Lite and the All in One Tool that was posted on here but nothing would work with my computer. So, now im just looking for a stock rom I could flash but I can't seem to find any on here for ATT. Any recomendations to fix this? Lastly, would flashing the 4.4 leak that was posted in the General section work? any help is appreciated.

As long as you are on 4.2.2 you should be able to rsd lite back to the most latest 4.2.2 firmware.
Either way, you can flash the 4.4 leak with fast boot
Moto X rocking 4.4

you probably are doing something wrong with flashing the stock FW. check the threads that talk about it and you should be fine. If you are running mac then there is a thread for that. if not then there is a thread for that as well. post in those threads with questions and you will get answers. i wouldn't take th 4.4 leak because you don't seem like you want to toy with your phone. It's possible that those people that took that leak might have to do a little or perhaps a lot of things to eventually take the real OTA. This has happened with other phones. You don't seem like you want to do that much tweaking so just go to those threads and ask questions there and explain what exactly you are doing and the errors you are getting.

yeah i think ill give that a go again I guess. I used to be into rooting back when I had an S4 but it eventually just became to much of an issue everytime i wanted to install a new rom so I like to stick with stock. Thanks both of you I'll try again once Im home in a few minutes

This ^^
Best not to do anything to your phone until you read up and learn about all this stuff.
The moto x is unfortunately an easy device to brick, or at least have big problems... If you do things without knowing what you are doing,... You're asking for trouble. ?
