New comers like myself, this just may help

Hello Everybody,
If you are a new comer like me and willing to enter this new Universe, so you must do one thing:
Read, read, read, read, read and learn! Than read some more!
Follow the steps provided by the gurus! Do not play around! You may end up paying a very high price and even bricking your lovely GNote!
The below links are just a few which I have found to be very helpful on instructing me on how to Flash and root my GNote.
Please be careful and read all threads from beginning to end! Remember on the XDA alone there are plenty of threads and information that you must read before trying to flash your International GNote!
First thing: What to ask and how to ask? A must see short introductory video as a first step as suggested by the senior member p107r0
I must read this first :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1659768
"[GUIDE] How to Flash ICS and Survive" and thanks again to senior member p107r0

...than do 10 Spam posts, to unlock Dev Area...
I read a lot, and found a post I wanted to thank him in the topic of my ROM. I registered just to find out, that you need at least 1 Post to thank. Ok, no problem. The last post was someone asking a question I could answer anyways. So i clicked on reply...
Please Read: New members (those with fewer than 10 posts) are not permitted to post to development-related forums. The developer forums are intended for experienced users and developers to discuss ways to improve technical aspects related to ROMs and Software. While you may be an expert, we ask ALL users to avoid posting questions about using or installing ROMs and software in the Development Forums. To encourage this new Users can read but not post in these forums.

I can understand that, I just wanted to point that out (and do my first post to do thanks ).
It would be cool to have another possibilty. Maybe a quiz or something like that to test qualifications.

Well, I finding a bit difficult to understand your thread...I don’t see point of unlocking the Dev area unless you are in the field. As far as I am concern the dev area will not give me much, especially with the silly questions I am still to ask.
"...to test qualifications..." what is the point? Many like me turn to XDA to find an answer to a problem and likely will to have the knowledge to stand an examination.
To finalize, my idea with the thread was to provide some information, there are plenty of people going under with their phones due to stupid mistakes.
People stuffing the forum with “spam” threads should check themselves, do a full wipe and then reboot…if you know what I mean.

one additional suggestion: "[GUIDE] How to Flash ICS and Survive"

This is what I said:

This is what really happened:
I registered [because i wanted to thank a post]. I logged in (after email confirmation) and searched for the thank button, but couldn't find it. So i went to google picture search, typed in "xda thank button" (there is always at least one person making a screenshot and a arrow on it) and found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1590190
and on page 2:
It works now - seems that one at least needs one post before "Thanks" is unlocked.
So...nothing for quiet readers like me

Why should I have made a new topic about it?
I usually search first at google, than xda (because of localisation) and when I still haven't found an answer there have already 3 hours passed and I might really have a problem/question noone else ever had before.
Forums are no chat. Every Question and their answers will be saved. Asking a question again and waiting for answers takes usually much longer than just google it.

Well, it's better to post in the Q&A with questions.
However, most have probably already been answered, so it's better to use the "search" feature first before creating a new thread.
Most issues, when it comes to changing bootloaders, you should be able to find the answer in either the Bootloader Guide thread, or the Bootloader Thread itself.
If you can't find the answer, then post in the Guide Thread, or the Bootloader Thread. If nobody can answer it, or doesn't answer, then you can create a new thread in Q&A.
Folks around her are generally helpful. I ran most of the Trolls away a few months ago
My best advise. Get your UID number before you even start. Write it down somewhere. We have a guide on how to do that.
Always read the guides. These were written by people who have been at the new unlocked bootloader and 3.2 and ICS from the very beginning. We did the original testing for most of this stuff a long time ago.

Thanks a lot! Very helpful.

One more advice.
When you post questions, and people help you (whether right , or it just didn't work), it's a custom to select the "Thanks" button near their post (reply). It's a nice thing to do. You will find the "Thanks" button located under the user's Avatar.
You are allowed to use the Thanks button 5 times each day I believe.
Welcome to the A500/501 forums!
MD

my A501 arrives today, my goal is to end up with Thor's JB ROM on it. I have a "little" experience from running custom roms on my Motorola Defy, but that bootloader thread is really doing my head in.
I've found this which as a newbie totally makes sense to me and is a great guide for starters.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1205204
Hopefully I can figure out the Bootloader part ok, or could someone recommend a particular bootloader with the end goal of using JB in mind perhaps?

may I remind you of xda rules
5. Create a thread or post a message only once.
As a large forum, we don't need unnecessary clutter. You're free to edit your message as you like, so if you do not receive an answer, revisit your message and see if you can describe your problem better. Not everyone is online at the same time so it might take a while before you receive an answer. (Also refer to Rule 16)
you have already posted this message

Bug Report KK Archi Port

Im create this topic to report all bugs you found in kitkat ported from n7100 to dev team .
Please just telling bugs this rom,not any more!!
tnx all.

Guess what the development thread is also for http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...4-2-archiport-temporary-experimental-t2748579
Even posted in first thread: Please do not post about a bug or crash unless you have a logcat to accompany it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2303834
No log = no bug report, unless you give a 100% way to reproduce it. Also, the forum thread has a bug report function. So your thread is useless.

Its ok, you dont need to excuse. But every development thread also has a bug report tab. This is perfect for this purpose. You dont spam the actual thread, but still post a bug report

Thread closed. Bug reports can be posted in the development thread - or you could use the bug report feature of DevDB which is located here for that particular thread.

How can i root my i9505 S4 Stock , with 4.4.2 version ?

Any problem with that ? Do you now what "forum" word means ?Thank you for your time but don't answer if you think something rather than that.

Hi mate
Lots of people here including me offered you our help but you did not take the time to read , search or look out for the solution you need, the idea in all these “posts or forums” is to get feedback from other users, keeping the thread alive is the OP responsibility, keep it alive with valuable inputs, precise questions and not opening multiple threads filling the forum with lots of useless threads, that offer no information to other members who responsibly use the search function.
The threads i offered you are guides and sticky threads

Okay let's start again from the beggining.
I said on the early start of my thread which things or threads ARE NOT WORKING.
Let's move on,
nunein suggested to a towel root, which i said earlier had a dead link,so I COULDN'T done it.So not working for me.
Let's move on,
Next is Strephon Alkhalikoi which answered that i am blind and i didn't see the link which was there .That wasn't working before.
Let's move on,
Once again.
Then it's Kushan02 , that i giving me a thread with a 404 thread error. Which on the start was working but afterwards was moved.
Then in conclusion , there WAS a lot of answers for me to help me out,which i had ALREADY SEARCHED,and weren't working, so in conclusion i had to find another way out to root my phone.
That's why i tried to open this thread and ask for more opinions and ways,now that i have reported all the threads with the dead links or PM'ed the thread starter for broken links,everything are working good and well, and i have finally rooted my phone via the "re-uploaded" way of TowelRoot & Odin.
Thank you and a happy new year to all with less judgement. :fingers-crossed:
