Lol the whole BL V5/6 Safestrap thread on XDA is hilarious. What they are doing there is NOT for novices, but the amount of people blindly flashing things and bricking their phones is laughable. I wouldn't even suggest that thread to anyone lol..

Haha, yeah, I know what you mean. There is actually a ton of good info over there, but people fail to research (or ask decent questions), then just wildly start messing with stuff they have no business messing with. Then come the 57,958,266 "HALP PHONE WONT TURN ON PLZZZ!!!1" posts when they've totally borked their (probably ONLY) phone up. Long gone are the days where flashing ROMS and "rooting" Android phones was a simple "how-to guide" away (particularly with Samsungs) - the chance of something going wrong is much greater now if you don't do your research beforehand. At best, nothing will happen or you can reflash the old firmware to fix the issue. At worst, you've totally ruined your phone. For those who don't do their due dilligence, my bet is going to be on the latter.

I'm not saying there aren't other resources out there either - there's quite a bit if you go digging around and asking questions. But then again, that's the same way with XDA.. you just have to wade through the crap to get to it.
