Does this fix applies for other roms as well (angelom, lightning etc)?

Why don't you use Odin to flash Supercurio 3 : I have said many times this is the easiest and highlighted it too at page 1 on rom flashing. GUARANTEED to work with just ONE Time flash
If you use SuperOneClick, it should not take more than a minute to root it.  SOC is sensitive to system files /sometimes conflict esp on Win 7 system - if you are stuck you have to debug yourself. You can checkup SOC thread at forum XDA for answers if you are still stuck and you wish to continue using it

I wanted to try CF-Root. After some research, noticed that it is autoroot (meaning it does not need superoneclick to finish the job). And when I browsed the app, i noticed a CWM icon and a "superuser" icon. So does this mean my phone is now rooted?

CF root will install clockworkmod recovery and same time root you phone. If you see superuser in menu means is rooted. Launch it to test. The CWM icon when  you select will give you choices of recovery - backup/restore , flash kernel, flash update, install apk etc. Depending on the cook rom you wish to flash, sometimes it doesn't work using it to flash rom. Anyway I still prefer the old fashion way of switching off phone, manulaly go to recovery mode ( volup/home/power button simultaneously )

Yes quite similar concept. When you use your phone, files and temporary files are build up progressively in the cache so that you can have quick access. When you clear these, you start fresh. These cache will be rebuild everytime you launch an app

hmm... but when i tapped on CWM Manager it shows "CWM Manager needs SuperUser access to function!"....

This is standard common message you will see everytime the FIRST time whenever you launch any app that needs root. After the first launch, it will not appear anymore

Ohh.. thanks for the tip.

Now I want to flash the stock kernel to remove the yellow tri. now odin telling me "<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)". Rebooted the phone and tried again but to no avail. Hmm... is it possible I try it in "download mode" instead?

If you are trying it using CWM from phone , redo it using Odin - flashing stock kernel just take few seconds and reboot back about less than a minute. I never bother to remove the triangle these days as I keep changing roms ; see no purpose.

I know what went wrong. Forgot to set to "download mode". How noob was I!! *smack my face*

Now running lite'ning v1.4. nice rom. hence starting my journey with android.

Really appreciated your tips, uncle benny!! thumbup.gif

Found this from another thread in regards to access "paid apps" in marketplace.

As I understand paid apps are restricted by the phone identifying itself as using a certain telco. How will this work with WiFi-only tablets? Will they be able to access paid apps without rooting in Malaysia?

so is it true? can anyone second the statement?

There isnt a need 2 flash custom rom to get it .... U can use back your ori rom + advance menu but make sure your version is listed .... This is 1 example
