[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Virome:
Thnx for your feedback and your files. I tried the post of Chainfire allready, before I posted my question here. Just to be sure, I tried your files aswell, but the problem remains the same.

To install the recovery given in this thread I followed the method discribed as in this thread, then my phone did connect to Odin.The problem is that since I installed the recoveryfile given in this thread, my phone doesn't connect to Odin no more. My computer does detect that my phone is on the USB, but Odin doesn't see it. And without Odin, I don't know how to root my phone. Odin doesn't see it and the recovery doesn't load. When my phone isn't in recovery, my computer detects my phone and I can open the file on de card.

What to do..?

---------- Post added at 10:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 PM ----------

Odin does see my phone when it is turn on and connected to my computer. So I'm not in recovery, it is just turned on. Can I try to flash your given file than or do I crack my phone than?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] katinatez:
Did you set your phone to android debugging under system settings? That's probably why Odin does not see your phone. Try again

@Virome:

You have killed any KIES processes in the background?

Youre running Odin as admin?

Maybe your S3 Usb port is damaged. Would not be the first S3 with usb port problems.

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Virome:
No root

Thnx for your replys, guys!

Debugging is on, I checked that before.

I don't think my USB port is broken, because my computer connects with my phone when my phone isn't in recovery. Odin detects my phone aswell when I'm not in recovery...

Kies is installed on my computer, but I'm not running KIES when Odin is opened.

When I open ODin, my computer asks me if I trust the program. I click "yes", and Odin opens. I think it's running as admin...

Odin does see my phone when it is turn on and connected to my computer. So I'm not in recovery, it is just turned on. Can I try to flash your given file than or do I crack my phone than?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Rob2222:
Maybe try from another PC.

You checked taskmanager for open kies processes?

ok nice, then its no problem, heard it from a couple of people now and thought its because of 64GB.
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] easycure1974:
How is it formatted, with exFat for supporting filesizes bigger than 4 GB or just fat? Could that be why it is not working for some or what?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] smaberg:
That's correct, formatted with fat and NIT exfat will make it work.

Super, I dont need support for bigger files than 4 GB so then I can format my 64 as usually with fat and use it with CWM. Was a bit worried for a while :)

[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] 9Lukas5:
Thank you Chainfire!

I wanted to ask, is it possible to make a cwm flashable zip of the recovery, too? Because I have the one from netchip yet, or also for future updates, because by flashing it from cwm the counter shouldn't increase, right?

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 Galaxy SIII
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Chainfire:
Use Mobile ODIN to flash it then... also, your flash counter doesn't really matter - only if it's 0 or not. 1 or 10, makes no difference to warranty :D

(It takes more time for me to make a cwm flashable zip than it takes for you to install Mobile ODIN, so ...)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] mystifiyer:
Hmm...well, if it shows 1, you probably can argue your way out yada yada...if its like in tens of them, it shows you pretty hardcore.

Kinda like a repeat offender vs a first time offender :D

No root

I use a laptop, so the USB's are on the side of the computer. I don't have an other computer....

In taskmanager I don't see kies open.. Kies air was running, so I shut that of, but with no result.

Is "USB-debugging" in dutch "USB-foutopsporing"? That is turned on aswell..

If I plug my phone on the computer in recoverymode I do hear the sound of USB plugging in.

I also tried multiple versions of Odin, non of them see my phone in recovery..

And I ask again, what happens when I install the root through Odin if my phone is not in recovery?

---------- Post added at 09:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 PM ----------

Yes!! I did it!

I used the computer of my neighbour and Odin saw my phone! Finally! No idea what's wrong with my USB, but it worked!

If i use external storage it just says it couldnt fint the card since i dont have a sd card, why doesnt the option install from zip that the description say exist? :(

Having some problems with CWM.

For some unknown reason I can no longer view files on the internal sdcard.

Selecting 'Choose zip from internal sdcard' gives me 'Couldn't open directory' - 'No files found'.

I reloaded stock rom with odin, installed CWM, issue still remains.

I have been using adb to push the Rom files onto the phone.

Im aware of mounting /data and the path of the internal card being /data/media

So anyone have any ideas on how i can access my internal sdcard through CWM?

I have a GS3 i9300 which is rooted and running CWM Touch 6.0.1.2, and Foxhound 1.6. Everything is working fine except the home button in normal mode. I have gone back to ICS stock and JB stock and nothing. Also, I cannot use the volume up key to get to download mode, but in recovery mode, I can scroll up with the volume up key. Do i need to go back to ICS, and flash the older CWM, re-enable the home button and then re-flash the foxhound rom with the updated CWM? Kindly Give me some expert guidance, as I know the button works, as I can get into recovery and I can get into the first part of download mode, but I cannot select it using the volume up key.

Trying to change root & change roms

Hi Guys,

Wondering if anyone can lend a hand?

I previously had my gs3 rooted with CWM on ICS. I updated to Stock Samsung 4.1 with Kies.

SuperSU, CWM no longer work.

I tried using Odin to flash CWM once again but it doesn't work. Is it possible to do on 4.1 stock? When I go to download mode (pressing volume up, home & power) I get:

Odin Mode

Product Name: GT-I9300

Custom Binary Download: Yes (1 Counts)

Current System: Samsung Official

System Status: Official.

My phone still won't pick up in download mode through Odin3-v1.85 or Odin3_v3.04.

any ideas?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] pat357:
Is your phone properly recognised in Windows ?

In Win7 64bit you should see the phone in the windows device manager under "portable devices" and if you checked USB debugging mode on the phone, there should also be an item called "Android ADB Device".

If this is all OK, what messages are displayed while ODIN v3.04 is tranfering the data?

You need to tell me as much detailed info as you can : what exactly you are doing and what messages you get from the PC or the Phone.

Without this info, it's really hard to tell where things go wrong... do not misunderstand me : I do want to help you if you provide me this detailed info.

A very easy step by step tool for all this is The Toolkit for S3 v6.0 by a great man called "mskip".

See : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1703488

It's really an excellent Toolkit, both for starters and more experienced users.

About SuperSu : it's normal that they don't work anymore : If kies installed a complete new ROM, it will overwrite this all.

Do your other self-installed apps still work ?

If yes, than you just need to reinstall the SuperSu app, otherwise you need to root the system again.

Also this, rooting and (re)installing SuperSu is very easy using the Tookit.

Just select it from menu and follow the instructions.

so i flashed this on my s3, but when i go to check for update it says the phone has been modified and cannot do so.

i read the first post and it said this one supports OTA.

did i do something wrong?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Perka:
Yes you need to read again ;)

You can flash ota if you have the zip.

To get ota you need to be stock 100%

A quick question: I have succesfully installed CWM, I have used it to do a system/wipe, flashed a ROM, flashed its nightlies etc etc., everything looks ok, except one tiny detail: when I do a backup to internal storage, yes, the backup takes place, yes, I can see it if I ask the phone to do a restore... but... where the heck is it saved? I am looking for it in clockworkmod/backup, no luck. I look for MD5 files in all the internal SD card, no luck. I am looking for huge files in internal SD card, not there. Where the heck are the internal storage backups saved? Should I format my internal sd card just to be on the safe side? is there something else I should look for?

Thank you in advance.

do you plan on adding busybox on the SU.apk?

your updater-script reads

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] SL:
Flashing the file via odin was no problem.

I am embarassed to say I could not get into recovery.

I pressed volume up, home button and the power....

I see a little blue wordings at the top left of the screen and samsung and I release the power button but the phone wont go into recovery......

What did I do wrong?
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] Chainfire:
Yes.

Yes.

As stated before, it's being looked into. (And seriously 10076757, posting the same thing twice in 3 hours ?!)

Not yet possible - hopefully soon.

Might as well sticky it...

Why would I do that ? I make SuperSU, not busybox. You don't need busybox. Every decent program that requires busybox will include it due to all the different versions floating around anyway.

As for run_program, the recovery includes busybox, that's why that works.

Try more :) You'll get it right sooner or later. Or use "adb reboot recovery" (if you have adb installed) or wait a few hours for me to post "CWM Manager" for this recovery, which has a button to reboot into recovery :) (But you already need root for that)
[Galaxy S III Original Android Development] RTBee:
Press volume down (not up)
