Mod your Android
summary
Explains how to get full control: use ADB and fastboot to unlock bootloaders (the unlock step bootloader unlock wipes data wipes the data and SD partition), install custom recoveries like ClockworkMod and TWRP, and flash ROMs such as CyanogenMod, AOKP or MIUI. Demonstrates running Ubuntu in a chroot alongside Android, warns many devices remain stuck on Gingerbread 2.3 while Jelly Bean 4.2 is current, and flags tools like heimdall/Odin and ZergRush as powerful but risking a bricked device.
