What is a2sd darktremor and why should i install it ???

I want to Flash my phone , What should i do after and before???
you always have to fectory reset before and after flashing , when you done flashing you need to root(most of custom roms are already rooted so skip to next step) now you have to enable (a2sd daktremor if its not enabled in a custom rom you have to do it manually) . thats it , now you can start restoring your data , and install apps ...

@waqasshahzad1986, maybe it's better to remove the "Remove simlock" link on the first post. That method has been deleted by the author because it on a lot off phones the efs partition got corrupted making the phone completely useless.
