Hello!
I want to install a new costum rom: [ROM] 2.2.1 MiniCM-1.0.0-Beta2.1 port for x8
I have a costum rom from racht alredy installed on my x8 device.
Question:
If i want to install a new costum rom, do I have to restore my stock/original rom to device before installing that rom? Or can i just install that rom?

No, you can flash roms one over another. Even if they are compatible, you can make "advanced recovery" and flash only the system part, so you keep your programs, contacts, call logs etc.
So if i have a 2.3.3 CM X8 J005 HACKDROID i can install update.zip onto it?

There is plenty of information out there if you do a very brief look/search and out of respect to the forum by reading the faq's

the most stable rom is probably official stock rom from Samsung with no modifications.
check this thread for untouched stock roms that can be flashed using odin
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011901
or deodexed stock roms also flashed using odin or cwm
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790
flash the deodexed roms if you want to apply other modifications easily using cwm

sounds like you tired to install over a froyo rom/kernel, did you upgrade to 2.3 official before installing the .35 recovery and rom?

You need to install OFFICIAL 2.3.5 if you want to use .35 kernel ROMs (new CM7.2, Aurora, new MIUI...). It is not enough if you just install a custom 2.3 ROM beacuse older 2.3 ROMs use .32 kernel, so you need to update to official 2.3.5 which also changes some other files so you can use .35 kernel and from official you can go to .35 kernel custom ROMs.
now different prob

hi
thanks for what u said but
i installed official 2.3.5 but now there is no imei and when i try to load into pink screen to change the recovery, it is not mounting, seems there r no files in it,
please help
and also when i revert back to 2.2 it shows files in boot screen in boot loader (pink Screen) and there i can change the latest recovery 5.5.0.4 but again the problem is back to .32, is there any way i can install only kernel to first change from .32 to .35 and then try to install a different rom (.35)
i would also like to add the official update i used was Android 2.3 V100R001C00B526G001 and now there is one more update Android 2.3 V100R001C00B528G001, currently i am downloading that, i will let u know what happens after i download that

You can change recovery with root explorer. Here is a great guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420728
Every ROM from beta2 on has locked bootloader so you cant change files when in pink screen but you can unlock it after you rooted it and changed recovery (search development forum for tutorial)
Problem solved

Hey guys,
First of all sorry about all the noobyness, but i would really appreciate some help
So i really want to install Arconium 8.2 on my Arc S and i have no clue on how to do so. I've read that you need to flash doomkernel v22 and then install Arconium 8.2. Could someone please tell me how do i go from stock GB to Arconium 8.2?
I am running stock GB version 4.0.2.A.0.62 with a unlocked bootloader, and also I'm not rooted.
Again, sorry about the nooby topic.
Thanks!

Everything you need
Flash the new kernel (in your case, doomkernel) then in the kernel go into recovery (pressing the vol-down key during boot) and then wipe everything by factory reset in recovery and install new rom (arconium)
To flash new kernel you'll flash tool under drivers and software in the link provided

I figured it out myself after playing with the kernels. But thanks anyway!
