Dear all,
I just bought myself a Galaxy S. It is locked to Bouygues in France and with Android 2.2.
I am totally new to these devices and i would like to unlock it and also to get Android 2.3 on it.
How should i start? (first unlock, then update the ROM, or get a ROM from xda - I used to do that with a Qtek...)
Please advise.
Thanks
Welcome to the SGS forums, I would recommend you read the stickies at the top of this forum first.
If you look in the Apps section I think there is an app that will let you unlock for free (think it's on the android market too).
May I also say welcome, but would also like to point out that this question should be in q & &, please read the forum rules and FAQ's then you will be better equipped to proceed, I hope all goes well

Has anyone a method to get S-OFF back?

Your best bet is Revolutionary.
Those guys of Alpharev & Unrevoked have teamed up and are working on a tool to root your phone.
Unfortunately the new HBOOT of our Desire, isn't supported yet.

can you help me?

Hello and welcome to XDA!
First of all, you need to learn how to root your phone. This can be a tricky process, but you will find many helpful people here.
After you do that, you can install different Android versions on your phone, also called ROMs.
The 4.0 version of Android, known as Ice Cream Sandwich, is currently in Alpha stage, so you might want to wait a few weeks/months until it gets more stable. Until then, you can try many of the ROMs in the Android Development section.
I'll come back with some links to tutorials
Edit: As promised, here are the two guides which I consider are easy enough for a newbie to consider:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928160
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833965
I would recommend thoroughly reading the guides, making sure you understand *everything* and informing yourself about ADB and rooting first, though. Remember, Google is your friend.
The reason is that if you mistake something, you might end up with a nice HTC-branded paperweight. But follow the steps as written and read beforehand about what you are doing, and you'll be a-OK.
Hi Guys,
First post here, been doing alot of reading on these great forums with regards to Rooting and custom ROMs.
Rooted and Flashed my first custom ROM today, UK Spec One X now with ClockworkMod and Cyanogenmod10 all working great.
Just a Thank you really to everybody on here who has taken the time to develop and document these mods, esp to Hasoon2000 for his All-In-One Toolkit V2.1 - Awesome bit of Kit mate
Cheers,
Rich.
That's so unnecessary that you are posting such a thread -_- ....if you want to thank the dev's or so then go to their thread an click on thanks...and then post thanks for the great things to make such things possible or so ...but it's really unnecessary that you are posting such a thread...i can laugh about such threads/people
Thread closed
This thread is as Off-Topic as it gets. The only excuse is the fact that you are new to this site. This excuse only is valid once .
Good day.
I must say I am a bit shy to post a question here. Usually i stick to the moderator rules and read, read and read before I even think of posting. But I did that and was very unsuccesful. So being a noob on Android rooting/flashing/rom(ing) I have no choice to take all my heart and ask you guys my question. Please bare with me if its stupid.
I bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab S SM-T705 in Egypt (LTE and WIFI). I rooted it (CF) and flashed the recovery (TWRP). I would like to install (any newer version really) of Cyanogen ROM. But I cannot find a suitable edition. Instead I am reading news about the project being abandoned and so on. So - does anybody know how to help please? Or am I gonna be stuck with this TW forever?
Appreciate your help!
Cheerio

I'd say start here, https://forum.xda-developers.com/g-play
Read read read, take 5, then read some more. Then do!
Many guides likely in the guides section, and if you have questions, there's a section for those too!
Good luck! :good:
