i am going to update my brothers samsung galaxy ace gts5830 rom because his memory is only 33/450+ something.
anyway i would like to ask if the following roms from the link below are not simlock. because my brothers galaxy ace is not simlock.
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-S5830
there is a category there that shows it is unlock. but there is a link when you click the word "unlock" where it shows how to unlock it.
what does it mean? is it already unlock or i need to unlock it because it is still locked?.
sorry for the noob question. thanks in advance for your help.

What do you mean simlock, and memory is only 33/450?
Simlock is available for all stock rom.
And, what is your brother galaxy ace android version?If it is 2.3.6, it will doesnt do anything.

Ey guys,
i bought a samsung galaxy s i9088 in china.
I just took a look at the captive wiki and it has the exact same specs and stuff.
I also want to root my phone, should i use the i9000 or captive thread?
or is this phone not able to get rooted?
Thanks, and sorry for my noobiness :<

According to this, it looks to be an i9000 variant. I would refer to the i9000 forum for most things, but rooting is the same across most galaxy S devices.

Hello.
My Galaxy Tab arrives tomorow and i read here at XDA that the stock rom isn`t that good as some Rom`s cocked here.
So i`m new to this.
Can someone help me with a few links and steps of what shoud i do to try XDA rom`s?
I`ve seen that it`s 1st post on development "How to root" but what are the steps.
I`m mean whats the next step after root and if i`m not wrong i`ve seenthat you coud flash roms via recovery and via a program Odin. Can you give me a link on how to in both cases ?
Thank you very much and hope in good roms for Galaxy Tab

How about a little more info: What kind of tab is it? 7" 8.9" 10.1"? GSM or CDMA. Unbranded wifi only? Or carrier fixed like T mobile or AT&T?
Also before rooting or flashing you need to know if your tab has a locked bootloader or not. If it is you need to apply a certain patch.
Give us some info and links will be on the way.

I`ve received my Galaxy Tab today and i`m playing with it but it`s run very smooth, very quickly ? How it`s therom`s cockedhere ? Is it realy necesare to root it?
Well the choice of going custom or remaining on stock ROM is totally up to the user. IF you feel fullfilled by your device. then no need for a custom ROM otherwise use it.

Try going to the correct forum first.
See the "GT-N7000" in the forum title? Does that look like your model number?
NO.
THERE IS A REASON FOR THIS.
FLASH ANYTHING FROM THE N7000 SECTION ON THE I717 AND YOU WILL HARDBRICK.
hi everyone, its my first time to have a smartphone and i want to root it put custom rom,cwm, and do flashing on my S5570IDXLF2 but im confuse when i read like "S5570I" only. does it mean it support any kind of S5570I model? or there's only a specific model?

Well, GT-S5570I is different than other GT-S5570 handsets. So, roms made for GT-S5570 and it's variants like GT-S5570L can't be flashed in GT-S5570I. To root your handset, you can use the instructions I provided you. For other things such as clockwork mod recovery, there's a thread in development section and they have got CWM for galaxy pop plus (s5570i) as well. You might also find other information at that thread, so it's recommend to go through that one first.
yah thanks for it and ill do it later. btw which development section? because this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1729220 is from galaxy y section.
last week I help my friend to root his phone hi has Samsung galaxy mini gt-s5570i this phone use sim card.i followed a tutorial and download a zip from this page but did not work then in the sd card I found this zip <bcmroot> my friend he doesn't know about this get to the sd card, he supuse the place unlock the phone maybe they put the zip in there so go to the recovery mod and flash it if your phone is the same it will work.im sorry for my bad English thanks.
Lets begin, to be clear i'm not requestiong any network carrier unlock, I already did with a box unlock, and my question is: Can I use any rom with out loosing my network carrier unlock? I want to try 4.3.1 ( for example) .
I hope any of the devs can answer or any have done this before. Thank you in advance.

Sorry for probably stupid question but I just panning to buy S3 mini with simlock (on O2 UK) and I would to install CM10.x on it.
So if is any problem with install it? Do I need to unlock bootloader first like on sony/sony ericsson phones or root is enough?
I tried to find and answer by search but there are not full, confusing or probably outdated.
Regards
Thom

Samsung has the bootloader unlocked by default, so you don't need that like in xperia devices. I had two xperias before the samsung too. You can install cm roms with your sim locked or unlocked
