Thanks kamalmawa.

The reason I was asking is for installing zips like you created. Odin won't do that I presume?

I don't know what you guys think, but I think I will still need custom recovery to flash the gazillion custom roms out there.
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
No... Odin is just to flash tar packages like whole firmwares. think CWM recovery as your PC bios where you just install things before OS loads.. CWM is just an advanced recovery for root users as stock recovery is very limited.

Yes you definitely need CWM to flash any custom firmware zip packages.

Found another useful setting to flip in others.xml.

<CscFeature_Gallery_DisableMenuShareViaMsg>FALSE</CscFeature_Gallery_DisableMenuShareViaMsg>

This one is true by default.

Setting it to false puts email and gmail options back into the share menu in the gallery. Having that disabled REALLY pisses me off :)

Heard many people have problems with "Missing Contact names in Messages and Logs." Probably best to back up your contacts, messages, logs with Titanium backup before proceed the upgrade and restore back.
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
Probably sammobile mislabeled it.. if you using Google contacts like me you just have to clear contacts storage data(Settings>Applications Manager>All> Contacts Storage) and re sync them from your settings> accounts
[Galaxy S III General] neonlight8:
So you mean clearing that doesn't clear the Google Account contacts? It just clear the sync'ed info on contacts page?
[Galaxy S III General] geoff.appleby:
Argh. I'm getting myself so confused here!

With this new build from vodafone, what version string to do we refer to it as?

In Baseband it's LJ2, in Build number it LK1.

So when looking through other forum posts and finding mods, when I'm looking things that are compatible do I need to match the LJ2 or LK1? Anyone know?
[Galaxy S III General] tmantanner4:
You use the build number. The baseband changes when you flash different modems

Sammobile file is corrupted....

1.2GB bandwidth wasted... Can't update to JB frustrated.

If I was to update via Kies, where can I find the downloaded ROM? tar.md5 file?
[Galaxy S III General] geoff.appleby:
The csc folder is for carrier specific stuff (don't quote me on that, I'm still quite new to android internals and things, but I think I'm right - its certainly where I see a lot of references to VAU things). The rom you're running is unbranded, so there won't be any carrier specific stuff I guess.

---------- Post added at 02:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:48 PM ----------

In fact, I'd be quite interested to know what happens if you MAKE a csc folder, then put a feature.xml file in there. You can download a sample feature.xml in the post I linked originally, then set the options inside it.

Balls :(

When I did it last night on Windows7, I found it in C:\users\my.name\AppData\(Local or Roaming I don't remember which)\Temp. You have to wait for Kies to extract it though - if you monitor your temp folder while it's doing stuff, you can watch a file growing in size - easy to find if you sort by modified date. Then, one of it's steps is "extracting the encrypted firmware"- when it does that, a temporary .zip file is written. You can grab a copy of that. It then extracts the firmware itself from the zip file into a new temp subfolder, so you could steal from there too.

I made sure i took a copy last night. I can put it up for download somewhere later this evening when I get home from work if anyone wants it.
[Galaxy S III General] amigo24:
Ah ok thanks a lot for the info, im new to this myself. It seems the rom has already made the camera noise stop when its on silent so i guess i dont really need the menu.
[Galaxy S III General] beaver2233:
Jkay has finally released his framework/mod for the S3 (found in original development section) - best $3 I've ever spent on an application and you'd be stupid not to. You do need a deodexed LJ5 rom.

It's uploading to my dropbox now. Just have to wait for it get there at a trickle. Probably a couple of hours still or so.

But I proved it works using Odin - just updated my wife's phone using it so I didn't have to download it again using Kies :)

Brilliant!! Works fine with no problems. This has been the most annoying thing about the last 2 Vodafone updates. I am happy to stay stock and rooted and this is now a bonus.

Well, for what it's worth, don't know if it's useless now, but it finally finished uploading to DropBox.

download it from http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27095678/I9300TDUDLK1_I9300TVAUDLK1_I9300TDUDLJ2_HOME.tar.md5.

If it's useful, then great :)

Now that I think about it I probably should have zipped it. Ah well :) I can gaurantee that it works though. Good enough!

For those who are having contact name issues should take a look at the Vodafone blog here:

Here is the download link for those who couldn't get Vodafone TDUDLK1 Jelly Bean firmware yet

http://www.mediafire.com/?9c23z0o29shs2

there are 6 parts you need to download them all and extract using WinRAR (http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm). Because mediafire max filesize for free user is 200MB. Good thing about mediafire compares to hotfile is Free user can use a download manger software such as IDM, FDM etc to download simultaneously with no limit :)

Edit: Please remove the .md5 from the file name and flash it as a .tar image otherewise you will get a md5 error
[Galaxy S III General] Horaldo:

<CscFeature_Gallery_DisableMenuShareViaMsg>FALSE </CscFeature_Gallery_DisableMenuShareViaMsg>

Disabling shutter sound is a bonus. :)
[Galaxy S III General] neonlight8:
Thanks heaps for this. Samfirmware.com site file is corrupted, Kies didn't download anything for me. So this is the only way to get it.

I spoke too soon, Part 6 of the file appears to be corrupted. I can never get pass the dreadful "file cannot saved, because the source file could not be read" message while downloading. All other files were fine....

Downloaded all the way to 53.9B out of 54MB, and it always drops

kamalmawa, please kindly fix the last file :) much appreciated!
[Galaxy S III General] sladflob:
Worked fine for me, got all six parts (using FDM) and 7-Zip was able to reassemble them.

Now... how do I do the update when Kies tells me that "Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via Kies"?

I also tried using Odin but am told that the MD5 hash value for that file is invalid.
[Galaxy S III General] Barracuda77777:
for those who wants the others.xml changes done the easy way, find the file attached with the following tweaks:

<CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>true</CscFeature_Camera_ShutterSoundMenu>

<CscFeature_Launcher_ReplaceHotseatAreaInEditMode> False</CscFeature_Launcher_ReplaceHotseatAreaInEditMode>

<CscFeature_Gallery_DisableMenuShareViaMsg>FALSE </CscFeature_Gallery_DisableMenuShareViaMsg>

also enabling camera use during call as well.

just replace your others.xml with the on attached to this post and fix permissions and you are set.

Just in case, this is the tweak for the Vodafone LK1 Jellybeans for the 9300T
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
This is something I can not fix try downloading with your web browser if you using any download manager

Sorry I didn't check it before I upload it :( ...I can confirm that MD5 is invalid for my original file too.. So I just re flashed my phone it without the MD5 All good :) .

To do that you need to remove the ".md5" from the file name which will make this .tar file

See the attachment below I just re flashed my phone this way..
[Galaxy S III General] geoff.appleby:
Seems like the entire interwebs are out to stop us sharing this file by all means necessary :)
[Galaxy S III General] neonlight8:
I'm not sure, I tried different browsers same results.

Anyone else tried downloading the last file, are you getting errors? I've tried at least several times using Firefox, Ie, Chrome all the same deal, network error, cannot be read etc. You might even finish the download but can't extract it with zero bytes or corrupted...I dunno.

It can't be the server seeing I can get the first 5 parts fine.
[Galaxy S III General] Barracuda77777:

[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:

Hey guys,

What's the deal with virgin? Do they not do their own custom builds of firmware?

My sister and her husband are both with them, and they're wondering when they'll be getting JB for their s3, but I can find nothing on their website.

Also, if it's running unbranded...can anyone who has one check if there's a csc folder? I'm curious as to if the launcher fix and camera mute, etc, fixes will work if there's no branding folder...

[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
It's nothing to do with your phone... Telstra has more bandwidth capacity than Vodafone... my speed also around 2-3mbps during the day but look at the speed test I did in early morning when no ones using ;) so don't feel bad when someone posted a Telstra speed test against other providers because they pay more for that speed :D

Hey guys, I've having problems trying Root using CF-Auto-Root 1.0 from Chainfire http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1957273 after flash to the latest JB ROM Vodafone.

Used the GT-I9300T file: CF-Auto-Root-m0-gti9300t.zip, on I9300TDUDLK1

It doesn't work and no SuperSU at all.

Anyone else? Have you tried it, kamalmawa?

I downloaded your copy, flashed it, just tried to root it, it doesn't work. its as if the same as stock, but flash counter has increased. No root apps would run.
[Galaxy S III General] Lonski:
Worked for me no problems at all. What are you using to flash it? I used Odin onmy PC, havent tried the mobile version. Oh, you hav to extract out the CF-Auto-Root-m0-gti9300t.tar.md5 file from the zip first.
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
Did you flash the CF-Auto-Root-m0-gti9300t.tar.md5 file with Odin ?

Go to your apps and see SuperSU app is there... if it's not there then download it from play store. .. then run the SuperSU once to update binary

Edit: I think your not alone in this issue where SuperSU app won't get installed during the CF-root flash. Read last few pages of that thread. Above solution should do the trick
[Galaxy S III General] neonlight8:
Yes that's right I flashed it correctly.

When I was on ICS, I ran into the same issue so I used the Galaxy S3 toolkit to root it and that was the only way. Then I used TriangleAway to get rid of flash count.

Now just flashed to JB Vodafone stock, used the Chainfire CF-Auto-Root, I flashed it correctly under PDA, CF-Auto-Root-m0-gti9300t.tar.md5 via Odin. Reboot no root access, but flash counter increase by 1.

There's no SuperSU app.

I'm not sure what's going on. I even went to Playstore, downloaded SuperSU, tried to run it can't update SU binary just closes with an error. Can't run SuperSU because its not rooted....

What does your screen says when you go to download mode? My one says GT-I9300 after previously used triangleaway. So now its without "T". But the phone still is GT-I9300T under system settings > About

Statu > Device Status: Modified

Is this a problem.
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
Like I said download and run SuperSU from Play Store
[Galaxy S III General] neonlight8:
Installed it as I mentioned above.

SuperSU says:

There is no SU Binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it.

This is a problem!

OK then closes.

---------- Post added at 12:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 PM ----------

I did exactly what you did, nothing different.
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
Did you see the screen after it exit the download mode where it install some stuff ?

Read the second post by Chainfire on Auto-root thread where it says Note... follow those instructions

Edit: here what Chainfire siad

- NOTE: Sometimes the device does *not* boot into recovery mode and root your device. Just do the entire procedure again if this happens. If it still will not install root and such, make sure that in Odin "Auto Reboot" is not checked. Then after flashing, pull the battery, and boot with VolUp+Home+Power button to boot into recovery manually. This will start the install process.
[Galaxy S III General] gharrington:
Check su is installed in xbin and or bin folder under system. If it is the permissions are probably noe set correctly. There are many apps rhat can set permissions.
[Galaxy S III General] neonlight8:
Yep I know what you mean. The first time I did it with auto Reboot I didn't see another screen upon booting up.

So i just tried again, Flashed, without auto reboot, pull out battery, boot with VolUp+Home+Power button

Saw a quick splash screen with a Red Android which did something and returned to normal Recovery

However after restarting, still no SuperSU, no root access, nothing.

Now when Igo to download mode

Custom Binary Download: Yes (2 counts)

=(

Looks like I'm not the only one, but I don't see why I get this I'm using a Vodafone handset with the right ROM

If you do a search on "red android" on Chainfire's thread CF-Auto-Root. This basically sums it up:-

"I get the red android recovery logo at reboot with no errors, but there is no SuperSU and the root does not seem to work. I've redone the auto root but nothing happens."

"Didnt even work, i tried until 32 times still not root even i see red android image and say success but sill no superuser and busybox icon in my S3 and when i open titanium backup still asking root rights, i tried root checker basic still say not root."

The fact that I don't get the warning symbol on Samsung screen already gave me an indication there's no root and didn't work even thought Red Android came up.

This is so sad for me...lost root access everything for JB. I can't even make a nandroid backup before I flash CF-Auto-Root. I did make a backup of my ICS though
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
you can always start from the beginning by reflashing the LK1 firmware then CF-Root. No guarantee this will fix it but you can always try... don't worry about the Binary count as you can reset it later.. :S I'm out of ideas..

try Speed-Mod kernel it says it will automatically Root.. but I haven't tried it though

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1928348
[Galaxy S III General] Lonski:
Yeah, I was going to suggest that as well.
[Galaxy S III General] gharrington:
ok guys I am uploading (it will take about 3 hours) a pre rooted deodexed stock flashable for you guys. And rom is well on its way :)
[Galaxy S III General] neonlight8:
I'm also out of ideas.

I already tried flashing again LK1 on top and CF-Auto-Root again still no good.

The last thing is to wipe the whole device, start fresh - flash LK1 firmware, redo CF-Auto-Root.

Before I do that probably need to backup using titanium backup (paid version) to backup everything.

Otherwise keep the ICS nandroid backup and use AppExtractor to restore apps, or with MyBackup.

Once rooted restore everything back.

That would be one painful exercise.

I might as well leave it as not rooted. =/
[Galaxy S III General] gharrington:
wait and flash this upload no need to wipe/factory reset and you`ll be rooted :)
[Galaxy S III General] neonlight8:
