Hi
Sorry i m a noob.
This android flashing is very new to me. I use to own HD2 and flash by using hardSPL and recovery.. but this is total new to me

Pls BEAR with my with my noob question..!!

my first question is

i want to install battery percentage..
SO i should Installing S-off, ClockWork, Root, SuperCID & S-on
what if i do wrong? will my mobile brick? Unlike WM, it had hardSPL to protect.

U don't need supervisor and u don't need to make it s-on again.

Pretty much s-off, clockwork mod, root it, then flash what u need in clockworkmod.

Read the sticky in the development forum one page back. Easy as following steps.

Security off, security on. Put simply the flash memory where the system files are stored is read only when security is on. In order to modify the system in any way (to root or flash a custom rom for example) it is necessary to set security to off. Security off makes the system flash memory read/write.

Hope this makes sense

No not Really, unless you want to flash a ROM different from your region.
Super CID can be done later on also.

You only need to worry about CID if you need to run an official RUU from a different region. You don't need to mess with CID if you're just flashing cooked ROMs.
