without reading the entire CyanogenMod 9 Discussion Thread thread (all 1000+ posts)...
At least this worked for me. Eveyrthing listed here is referencing the CyanogenMod 9 Discussion Thread
1. Read all of the OP throughly.
2. Repeat step #1.
3. Read all posts starting from date of latest build (i.e. May 4) to most recent post. No use (at least to me) reading posts between OP and date of latest build because everything there probably already fixed or if it'll be re-mentioned.
After I did that I'm ready to make the dive. One thing I did learn after reading just the range of posts mentioned above. 90% of the questions people asked won't have been asked if they only read the OP THROUGHLY.
Thank you developers!

Frequently Asked Questions
[Last updated on 03/01/12]
Q: I downloaded the latest CM9 build, but [XXX] isn't working!
A: Search! Search the CM9 threads, search Google, but for the love of God - please first search for the answer! If you did, and could not find it, you have three options:
1) Read this, it might very well answer your question.
2) Check out the live support chat But search first.
3) Go here and ask your question. But search first. Did I mention you should search first? You should search first.
In any case, if your question or query is not directly related to development, please do NOT post in the development section!
Q: I can't connect my phone to my PC! What can I do?
A: This is a known issue. There are several ways you go around this - either by downloading to your PC a program called Droid Explorer, or by downloading any of the wi-fi file transfer apps on the market.
Q: When I start up the Superuser app, it crashes! What do I do?
A: Users are reporting success by searching for Superuser updater on the Market, installing it, and forcing an upgrade.
Q: I can't buy apps from my phone! What can I do?
A: This is a known bug. The only way to buy apps right now is through your home computer. Refunding is reported working on the phone, though.
Q: When I download a big app from the market, I get an error message! What can I do?
A: This is a known bug. Nothing can currently be done about it, unless you already downloaded the app and have it backed up. In that case, there is an advanced work around that you can find by searching the CM9 threads.
Q: I heard Codeworkx got a Galaxy Nexus, is he going to stop supporting the Galaxy SII?
A: Nope, not currently. Actually, it means he can use his Nexus for day to day use, and only focus on development on his GSII. This is in our favor.
Q: I found and downloaded an ICS ROM by Airbus360, I heard its better than CM9, is that true?
A: Apparently, Airbus360 simply took what the CM team has been building, added a few useless lines of code (read: they don't do anything), and claimed that its faster. He also pretty much claims to be doing most of the hard work when in fact, he isn't adding much of anything.
If you have anymore frequently asked questions to add, please PM me and I'll add them as quickly as possible.

Several stickies and guides point to this post related to rooting: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=779238
The thread is now dated and it seems once you try it the phone will disable USB debugging. It has been this way since a January 2011 maintenance update (source)
The workarounds listed in that link also no longer work. I have found a couple other methods to root that are also dated and I know of no current working root method. I cannot post to the dev forum to ask to have the "Fascinate Sticky Roll-Up Thread **Check this thread BEFORE posting**" sticky and others updated but I am posting here in case someone can help clean up some of the dated info.

Hey guys i have come from the Galaxy ace forums and my friend wants to upgrade his SGS which i agreed to do
He's on stock right now and wants to experience CM and root
I searched a lot and did not get a full proof guide for complete upgrading from stock
can anyone please guide me
And after searching the development section i concluded to flash Slim beans...it looks promising and stable
Please help me how to upgrade to slim beans from stock
thank you
Dont be lazy & read the forums. There where many before u. Even I did it once (to be exact just two weeks ago) just by searching & reading on xda & google. The thing is if u come across problems before/during/after process most times it happened to someone already & solutions are already there. So no excuses, search harder. I found alot that helped me flashing from stock for the first time (I didnt even know what rooting, kernel, odin etc. was couple of weeks ago). Its a little effort on your side. It seems you know more than when I was starting coming from the ace forums so imo The last option should be starting a new thread, especially for this specific question. Nevertheless here is a start
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
I'm quite accustomed with all the words and everything
I myself flash at least 2 roms per week on my SGA
But for SGS I don't know how to go about
And I searched but there is no full proof guide which includes everything hence the starting of this thread
Baseband version of his phone is

Its only a few threads down , has everything My Guides and Manuals
I have had no luck installing lineage OS on my Oneplus 5. I keep running into more errors and questions after each supposed instruction video or website. Please point me in the right direction guys!
I'd point you to the instructions in the official rom thread. Although unfortunate, it is not uncommon to encounter errors. Try to follow each instruction to the word, keeping track of each step you've taken. This ensures that when you encounter an error, you have firm idea at which step it occured.
Most errors and their fixes are usually not unique, so you'll find their troubleshooting by searching the posts in the thread itself. I usually read the last 10 pages of a thread before flashing the corresponding rom/mod.
Finally, instead of looking for a fool-proof instruction set (I doubt there is one, since there are myriad of issues that can occur), try posting your error/logcat/steps in the thread and requesting help. People here are quite helpful in my experience.
My apologies if this is not the answer you expected. Hope you find what you need. Cheers!
Is it possible to use a gsi on Samsung Galaxy A9(2018)?
More specifically the Pixel Experience Plus 13 GSI
Ive seen a couple tutorials on youtube and some websites but they seem hella shady to me also its my first time trying to install a custom rom/gsi so i dont wanna brick my phone
Ive seen a lot of devices on this website EXCEPT the A9 idk why
Like anyone who knows is it possible? If yes can u explain/share how?
Thanks to anyone who spends their time on this thread!
I have written a guide on installing GSIs on Samsung devices here. Follow at your own risk. You must have TWRP flashed to your device.
Also, please remember that we require device specific questions to be posted in the device specific threads. Please take a moment to read the Forum Rules linked in my signature.
As a courtesy, we will move your post to the proper section.
