I know that this is a developers forum, so I figure that I can get some good advice here. I have found this rooting procedure at android authority .com. Is it good. What is it missing
Dont need to start a new thread for what is a very popular question and has lots of other threads for it.
Suggest you try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1399889 if you are doing this on a Winbox.
This guide is excellent as well.

Hey - Sorry for crossposting, but I'm not really getting any feedback or attention on the other forum, so I'm wondering if this is a good place instead.
I am trying to make a HardSPL for my LIBRA - As far as I can tell there's none available, so I've decided to put down my step-by-step method to get there.
I would love programmers' feedback, comments, etc. - I feel that my steps could be ported to other devices to provide a stepping stone for other members of the community to help out with development/testing resources for new devices.
My post is here:

Thanks..
Just got my hd2 today and looking through the boards im confused.
i understand theres new roms, loads of extensions and some critical apps but i dont know where to start.
Could someone please create a new thread thats just for n00bs, that gives an up to date guide for getting the best out of a factory fresh hd2?
im not talking about anything too specific, just the latest (or best.most stable/fastest) rom (and how to flash) and some general guidance as to the most popular apps to install off the bat (theres got to be some commonality there).
thanks guys!
there are at least three sticky guides to rom flashing on the rom development section, the hints and tips sticky in this section is also a first stop.
as to questions like"best rom"..that's a completely subjective question...everyone has their favorite.
course, if you wanna write a new guide no one will complain!
I know what you're going to say, 'WTF do we need more root guides?' But this is a complete guide which has everything in it that you need to root.
Goldcarding, Downgrading, Flashing, all in one guide!
You can find my comprehensive guide at sites.google.com/site/roothtchero
(I have roothtchero,co.uk on order)
Please give me feedback and suggestions on how to improve it and I hope this will help n00bs!
Bear in mind that even my guide is not "complete" it covers almost everything but still not 100% of cases - hence why forum responses are necessary to help the minority of users through ... and having them register for another forum isn't the way to get users on your side...
My opinion is that your guide isn't particularly easy to navigate or as clear as it could be.
Hi, im a new a500 user and wants to root, install custom ROMs and new kernals, etc. But i dont know where to start?! If someone could just give us newbies a step by step guide to get all those thing that optimize the tablet.
A guide that looks like this:
First .............. your device "link for guide".
then if u want ............, download this and follow this guide "link".
for new kernal... etc
//webspirit
Check the Iconia A500 Android Development subforum under the stickies rollup thread... should be everything you need in there
As previously mentioned, start in the Roll Up threads, and do lots and lots of reading, also the search function can be your friend!
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 ><
Newbie s5 user incoming
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.
