I rooted, unlocked, and loaded a ROM on my last Note 3 (Verizon) and need to do it again. I have just one problem. I am old and have sometimers disease and I forgot how I did. LOL. Would someone mind telling me the best ROM and a step by step on how to root, unlock, and install ROM. I would be forever greatful.

Does the bootloader need to be unlocked for this method?

I'm have just the basic N1, never tried anything with it, so I dont know the lingo and don't want to give you wrong info. It worked for me fine though even though I haven't done anything to my phone
Someone posted on that link that it's only working for Tmobile phones.
Mine's for ATT, so I guess I won't try it.
I'm about to root my Evo, the first android phone I have ever attempted to root. I have no idea what I am doing, and woud appreciate some advice. I'm planning to use unrevoked. I"m hoping you can analyze the steps I hope to make and help me through it. I'll even tell you what I want in the end
Tell me if I'm doing this correctly:
1. Install Unrevoked 3
2. Install Unrevoked Infinity
3. Find a custom rom somewhere (I just want a vanilla rom)
4. Be done?
Is this correct? Where do i find a rom btw? I can't wait to get away from sense, I want stock android now!
Moved in EVO 4G General.
try cyanogen

Simple:
http://www.thedroiddemos.com/2010/08/27/how-to-root-the-htc-evo-4g-with-froyo-2-2-video-walkthrough/
Just make sure you load a different ROM up afterwards as a stock rooted ROM isn't usually stable and will usually give you random Force Closes on different apps. I recommend Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo or Cyanogenmod 6 personally. Both are faster and very stable. There's a few Vanilla ROMS under the EVO themes section.

I am a first time rooter, and I need simple instructions as a "how-to" guide to rooting. Can anyone walk me through step by step? Just explain it like u would to an idiot. Also, what are the benefits of rooting, and is it un-doable? Thanks!

Hi all, just got an upgrade this week to the Atrix and thoroughly enjoying it so far. As a poweruser with the HD2 and all the hacks involved like android on nand etc, the first thing I did out of the box was root it.
Now to my point, all the custom roms I'm seeing seem to be for At+t and Bell (is that the right carriers?), and the forum is Atrix 4G. So can I as a UK user use these same roms/radios that are outlined in the development forum?
Any help is appreciated, Thanks in advance.
Greetings. I have the same backround as you . I nearly stayed with my hd2 but i'm glad I didn't. The only gingerbread rom for us is the orange one in the dev forum. I have had no success flashing this yet. Soft bricked 3 times and counting.
There is an international fruit cake in the works rich we will be able to flash from CWM.
So far rooting is fine.
Unlockingbootloader is fine.
flashing Cwm if fine.
I keep meaning to start a t-mob uk thread to collect all the info for us uk tmob users into one place. I will get round to it eventualy if some one doesn't beer me to it.

Hi there.
I am on Orange U.K, and i have successfully flashed this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169409. Following this guide to flash the ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1167373.
Many international users have flashed this ROM as well but REMEMBER to unlock your bootloader before even considering flashing this ROM.
When unlocking your bootloader, you will notice that you will only have around 300 total RAM but if you flash the hack relevant to your device, you will retain your RAM when you flash to Gingerbread.
Please follow the guide properly and don't skip any step. BTW, if your bootloader is not unlocked, we will probably be getting Gingerbread soon since the SOAK testing is about to begin very soon.
Similar story, i'm on Orange, followed those steps and it's working great. Just had to replace the missing sound files, but apart from that, works a treat.

Now since we have an unlocked bootloader, you can flash any ROM. Just make sure you flash the proper boot.img for your phone. See the fixes section for the pudding thread.

I thought we still had to be careful with the Roms, as some of them contain files that are tied to the kernel version (until the port everything over). For example, the ninja rom, I believe it is crrently tied to AT&T at the moment. I presumed we had to wait for a safe INTL version..
I think we can install and lunch any Rom now. The only limitation for inte. users is Ram issue. Otherwise will work fine.

great, thanks. Maybe I'll try another rom then I'd like one without any MotoBlur stuff on it, although the French 2.3.4 is running very well.
Hello, this is my first post here so bear with me...
I want to root my atrix and unlock the bootloader and (eventually) install CM9 onto it because I don't feel like waiting for the OTA to ICS, and I want to have the Vanilla ICS experience.
I know there are guides on how to root on here, but I wasn't sure if they pertain to the At&t Atrix MB860 with 2.3.6 and version 4.5.141, and I didn't want to try until anything before I was certain that it would work for my phone because like most people I am deathly scared of messing up my phone. My upgrade isn't until January, so this is the only phone I can use until then.
So can anyone help me out? What is the definitive step by step guide to rooting and unlocking the bootloader for my phone (at&t atrix, 2.3.6, 4.5.141)
Any help is greatly appreciated, many thanks!

I just had to go through the process again recently. It's actually a lot easier than when I first got the phone. Goto this thread --->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136261 and follow the unlock method first. Then flash custom recovery on the phone. You should be good to go after that. PM me if you have any questions.
Hello everyone! I just rooted my Droid RAZR M last night, and I would like to download SlimRom 4.3 for my device. Unfortunately, I am absolutely a newbie.
Can someone kindly provide me a detailed walkthrough on how to get this ROM on my device without screwing up or bricking my phone? It would be greatly appreciated!
Here is the link to the ROM I'd like:

What exactly do you mean by "You are locked"? Does that mean I can not download any ROMs without risk to my phone?

Your bootloader!
Did you unlock prior to...78 or ...3?
Read my 1st signature link, If you are not on tapatalk.
If your bootloader is locked, you can't run Slim. If you're on the last two OTAs, you can't unlock your bootloader. If you're rooted, you can load SafeStrap to run some ROMs, but there are only a few that work on SS. Here's a hint: read the the entire ROM OP, prior to flashing. Most of them will tell you if you need an unlocked bootloader.
