Actually, the INSTALL button becomes transluscent. It wont work when I pressed iy but the CANCEL button besides it certainly working. What could have been the problem? Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] mrm43:
If you downloaded the apk from a source other than the playstore, better check "allow install on unknown sources" in settings - security.
[Galaxy S III General] vincecabz101:
Yes, i have unknown sources checked but still no luck. Actually, after I upgraded to 4.1.2 Official ROM Poland, installing apk files thru file manager just worked so perfectly but after a while it just didn't. I wondered what could have been the problem?
[Galaxy S III General] EtienneBordeaux:
Try going to apps in the settings and choose all. Find media storage, clear data then reboot.
[Galaxy S III General] vincecabz101:
Still, it didn't work mate. I just couldn't figure out why it happened so abruptly. I tried all means like I flashed again the official ROM but no luck.

By the way guys, I noticed that the dim red light while charging causes my phone to charge very slow. I don't know if it's just me but that led light adapts to the lighting of our surroundings. I placed it near the window while charging wherein the light directly hits the sensor of my phone, and then the led red light became bright red again like in ICS; which caused my phone to charge normally. If my environment is dark while charging, the led becomes dim red again and my phone is back to slow charging. Just a food for thought guys. :)

I dunno if u guys r into fon tweaks but I wud like to share what I learn after I got my hands on a SGS3 a few months back, to summarize what I have installed so far:

Latest CM10 nightly JB 4.1.2 (Main ROM)

Stock Globe ROM JB 4.1.1 (2nd ROM)

Siyah Kernel 1.8.4 Dual booting and kernel tweaks :)

I'll try to post screenshots soon
[Galaxy S III General] EtienneBordeaux:
I tried it both on my s3 and my brother's gtab. On my s3, I am using siyah kernel's stweaks but I suggest you to read about changing those frequencies. Go find the thread in xda cause I'm lazy to look for it now.

[Galaxy S III General] imjoRDz:
well did flash my phone with the ubranded jb of ph..
[Galaxy S III General] vincecabz101:
I am not sure if it comes with the Stock ROM but with Omega v34 ROM I am using right now, if you continually press the home button like 3-4 times, the screen shifts to negative. Those in stock ROM may try with their device & see if it's the same. ;)
[Galaxy S III General] EtienneBordeaux:

A proper full wipe in cwm is mounts and storage >format cache, format data, format system.

As ettiene said you may also want to format sd card. Note that this will erase absolutely everything except your external sd.

This is the cleanest way to do it.

A factory reset, wipe dalvik, wipe partition is not a proper full wipe.

i used to be exclusively on siyah- until i tried boeffla kernel.

siyah is definitely easier to use with stweaks and provides dual booting ( a feature i dont use).

but since my priorities are audio and battery, boeffla seems to be giving me the best of these, at least for my usage pattern. their drivers and code my be identical, but for some reason im just getting better audio on boeffla compared to the last siyah and perseus i tried,

[Galaxy S III General] rab1412000:
Depends on what your trying to accomplish bit Imho the default values are already good.

The first thing you have to note when you start changing stuff is how to get back to default as undervolting and such can cause boot loops and other anomalies. There usually a file you can flash just in case this happens, that resets values to default. Finding and learning how to use this file or script is your first priority.
