Hi, I'm new to the forum, but I've been browsing around for about a week reading what I could about the fascinate and what can be done with it. I'm not new to Android, but I am new to rooting and ROM's for the android devices. I used to do this all the time on my blackberry devices, but this will be the first droid I have attempted, so I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction as far as how to root the device and install custom roms. If anyone could point me toward anything I should read before hand, and any info that can be found on the process itself, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Anthony

Hey Guys,
Sorry for this post already ha. I am not familiar with this phone i am trying to help my brother out. The wiki and a lot of general info seems fairly outdated. Is this all still the most efficient way of doing things? I have not played around with the phone yet so i am going to ask some probably dumb questions. I have an SGS phone which everything seems much easier on.
The phone i need help with is the Mytouch3g 3.5mm (I believe this is the 32A from what i have read)
My question is after rooting can i use rom manager for recovery and to put a new rom on preferably the cyanogen froyo rom. I believe is listed.
If not is there any chance someone could walk me through the process. I have read up but I have not seen a step by step to getting a Rom fully installed and in the rom areas i see a lot about changing radio and such stuff.
If i could get a PM or post or even link to where i am referring to that would be great. Also how does one go about wiping this device before changing mess. Alright thank you so much for your time.
Hey all,
I've tried running a couple versions of Android and unfortunately for me - they all get stuck on the black screen with white writing (relocating kernel etc... - right after you hit haret).
Anyone know where I'm going wrong? Android is on the root of the sd card.
Do i need anything else?
Obviously I'm running a hd2 - the aussie version T919blah whatever it is.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Dude there was no need for this thread, Dont you think that this has been asked before or do you think that you are the only person to ever need help with this topic?
Please go and look at the forums, there are plenty of stickies and guides that clearly explain what you need and what to do to prepare for android.
You could've just pointed me in the right direction rather than being a jerk.
what rom?
what radio?
CW or not
we need more info
I've been trawling the forums and I can't find step-by-steps on installing Vegacomb. I'm a tech, but know next to nothing about installing ROMs. I'd greatly appreciate a pointer to the instructions.
Thx.
ha! with you there, android people seem to love their spartan instructions delivered in a very certain geek speak.
we'd go mad at anyone in the x86 hackintosh community who tried to pull that, but hey ho..
had my vega android thing for a week and flashed 4 types of rom after decoding the instructions. basically there are a number of ways depending on the rom you wish to use.
here's a good guide, but they wont let me post an outside link google tabletroms ..vegacomb instillation guide.
hello and let me first apologize if this is yet another post on another ROM.
I have a nexus4, and after the last update for 4.3 is battery time really been bad, even after a reset.
so I could use a little help around the CyanogenMod.
I think there are so many different versions of CyanogenMod.
if there is a kind soul who could help me find what I need (the right link), I will be overjoyed.
my phone is not rooted yet, it must be right? so lacking I also help to find a guide.
someone who can help find what I need?
best regards
setfire.
having a good day.

Hey everyone, I'm currently trying to update my phone to maybe a new rom or something that runs a tad bit smoother than the original rom posted.
But quite frankly I have honestly no idea where to even start.
I'm using a T-Mobile Galaxy S5
Version 4.4.2
The only thing it has is being rooted.
I just don't want to mess things up.
if someone could explain the process and maybe link a guide in order from which I should follow it'll be greatly appreciated.
Also if you could recommend a rom you have experiemented with and you feel is very nice or fast please link that below also.
Sorry for asking so much ><

There are many custom ROMs, not to mention many existing threads and tutorials. So why don't you browse the forum and do some reading? You'd learn a lot more about your options and be in a much better position to ask informed questions.
It's not really in your best interests (not to mention rather presumptuous) to expect someone to write a treatise or personal guide just for you. Especially when guides and tutorials already exist if you spend a few minutes looking in the forum yourself.
If reading a few posts is somehow too much work, then pick a random custom ROM like Phoenix or Xtrestolite and follow the installation instructions in the custom ROM thread.
