Im sure its in this thread somewhere, but can someone run through the steps for someone who hasnt rooted from Stock Samsung ICS to CM10?Thanks in advance
A chap on here did a root guide, I've just scanned it and it seems to be all in order, so follow that:

Once rooted, you should have an app installed called 'CWM', it's a picture of a cogwheel.
Then, you need to put the CM10 ROM (and Gapps file) on your external SD card (they are in my previous post, above).
Enter the CWM app and reboot into recovery. Alternatively to do this, you can turn the phone off, then turn it on by holding volume up, home and power.
First, when in recovery, do a Nandroid Backup (it's under backup), it will make an image of your entire phone, so you can flash back to it at any time, should there be a problem.
Then, follow the steps from the CM10 thread:
- Download the zip (you've done this)
- Download Gapps (and this)
- Install the update zip from recovery (this option is obvious when in recovery - this is the main ROM file, CM10 in this case)
- Install gapps (same as above, just flash it right after you've flashed CM10)
- WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET (again, it's on the main menu in recovery)
- Reboot
That should do it.
