Rom Noob. - HD2 General

I'm thinking about getting a new ROM as the one I have is stock and is utterly poop. Can you choose one and not ever need to change it again and it will stay the same speed for ever? I have a few questions that I hope you could all answer.
How do I install once downloaded a ROM
If I was to install a ROM and it did not work do I just do a hard reset to get it back to standard?
Once I have a new ROM can I still use apps that I have if I install them again?
Should I back up files I have atm and how?

wow
Have you read even a single postin this section of the forum?
all of thoseare answered at least 10,000 times already. If you look up there is even a thread with comparisons of ROMs now, how about starting that and then working from there.

No need for the WOW comment, I'm a bit impatient at times I will have a read about but would still like my questions answered.

Hey there,

The rom im using you will find ħeяe
Try using --»тħıš!«-- to help you search for questions you asked..I learnt alot from searching

thats one thing you dont want to be mate, impatient when it comes to flashing roms, for eperienced flashers its a 5 minute job, but for newcommers its easy to **** up.
I would suggest spending some time reading up about it before jumping straight in at the deep end.
Check the link in my sig and also the ones posted by shum97.
Good luck.

Custom ROM Screenshots + Install help

Got it solved, thank you guys
Dude, Uh, Back up one page and read the threads that begin with [ROM]... Not trying to be a smart ass. But seriously homie..
Just read the stickys and how-to guides and this should answer a lot if your questions. In the threads about specific roms is where you'll find screenshots. But a lot of the benefits of specific roms have nothing to do with cosmetics, so you won't get a good idea about each rom without trying them and comparing.
Fyi posting questions that have been asked and answered without searching to find your answer first is likely to get you the middle finger from some members and make people not want to help you, so just keep that in mind. Enjoy your rooted eris when it happens.

1. Questions go in the Q&A forum
2. Search in the ROM Development forum
I think what they are trying to tell you to read and search before just trying to be spoon fed answers with that said I'm closing this thread.

Want to install Darky's ROM but i have NO idea how to do it. Please HELP?!?!?!

Hi guys, i have a Galaxy S i9000M(canada) and i want to install Darky's ROM on my phone but i have NO IDEA to where even start. My phone is totally in stock condition right now and i want to get the ROM so can you please give me a link to any step by step tutorial or tell me how to do it please?
thanks in advance.
nobody? oh cmon please help i wanna do it so badly
Go to darky's thread and the instructions are there in the first post. Check the REF in the general section. There are so many guides. You should search before asking as you need to learn a lot before you can flash the rom.

http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#darkyrom is their channel u can ask all questions there.
http://darky.ficeto.com/community/index.php?threads/guides-all-in-one-guides-thread.1434/
I'm assuming this is the thread you've read?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=814091
Go back and read the entire first post again. Then click on about every link in that post and read or watch them. Now I'm not trying to sound rude here, but if you're not sure what you're doing after all that then I suggest not doing it. But everything you need is in there, as it's where I started and I followed the directions in that thread very carefully, and to the letter.
Dont know how to search cannot find a post in a rush not going to bother reading the FAQS .
1/100 on he bricks his phone .

Hope this helps
First make sure your phone is rooted with superoneclick.

heres a link with everything else you'll need.
A Good tip is always do a lot reading before flashing roms and make sure you have everything you need i case you get stuck. i have had to get help a couple of times myself. And one other thing i would suggest is always have a stock firmware saved to your pc in case you encounter any problems. you can get stck firmwares from here:

I've been using darkys rom 9.3 with steel blue theme for the past week now and its amazing.
Best of luck.

Flashing to 2.3.4 ?

Is it worth it? does it have a lot of bugs compared to 2.2 and 1.8.4? also how do I do it? I can't find any guides or anything..
Really you can't find any guides? Then you don't need to flash 2.3.4

This question has already been asked and answered several times in this forum already. Why are you starting new redundant threads instead of using the search button?

I have been looking, there are no guides. I saw one the first day it was out, but I can't seem to find anymore. Not sure what to search for. I'm typing in flash 2.3.4 nothing is coming up =X No need to get rude with me.
check the sticky in the dev section. Thread closed, redundant question...

Questions About Unlocked Bootloader And PF4

I am on an unlocked bootloader and I'm also on pb1 and running cm13. Is there a way for me to upgrade my modern to pf4 with a flashable zip?
It seems like there is a way to upgrade my bootloader now as well from what I've pieced together information wise through reading the forums is that true, am I reading into this correctly?
Bump for help.

If you have these same questions for the awesome developers in this sub forum please speak up because it would seem that some still hold childish vendettas against me despite me being thanked plenty of times for helping people around here and being a long time member of this community.
Thanks to anyone who speaks up and answers these few questions. I just see a lot of people bricking their phones right now and not enough information out there so I'd like to perhaps help other people while helping myself as well by getting this information before moving forward with trying my hands at this.

I agree. Lately there is a lot of very confusing conflicting information and guides that are not clear like they used to be. Instead of helping some just get mad and fill threads with complaints instead of answers
Bump for help. I have a lot of views so I know these questions are needing answers. Thank you for any help we get on these questions.

Why don't you just pull the modem from the PF4 firmware and create a flashable zip....basically that's what you're asking for...just a thought/idea

I'm trying to figure out why jrkruse hasn't done that yet and why he's remaining silent while people are bricking their phones. It just seems fishy to me that's all. Plus I don't know how. I can do a lot but not that.
