Yeah, it changed my modem but my RIL file stayed the same...
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
What does getRIL says ? Did the script gave you an error ? Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] gharrington:
So you want the modem or not lol
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
What do I need the modem which is already posted in this thread & upinthairs thread for ?
[Galaxy S III General] gharrington:
Just having a laugh buddy hence lol
[Galaxy S III General] tqgia2:
ha I'm an idiot... was flashing the RIL onto my primary ROM when I'm using my second :eek:

anyway, flashed it on the correct ROM and I'm pretty sure it worked :) the getRIL reports unknown RIL

Cheers kamalmawa, speed tests are showing slower speeds and reception is lower for me on DULH1 but I'm going to give it a few days to test properly since my house has always had reception issues
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
I spent couple of hours this morning extracting RIL files and modifiing the script to install both modem & RIL. I have no problem here with CM10 but didn't have time to test with other ROMs I might have to check the partition tables of other ROMs.. thanks heaps for testing this
[Galaxy S III General] tqgia2:
Your work is appreciated :) DULH1 was my preferred kernel but DLID was performing much better once I got the correct RIL file... which is surprising, didn't think it had that much impact... but now I can jump back :)
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
I also noticed the difference when I got the DLID modem & RIL from getRIL app. Actually that's what made me wonna try this with TDULH1 as its still the fastest data modem/ROM for my location.. see my speed tests above.. :D

Anyone who is rooted on SGS3 LTE/4G I managed to get the EasyUMS app working for our phones. PM me and I can send you the recoded apk. I have posted in the devs thread and sent him a PM and still no response?

I won't post up a thread or put the download link public till i get approval, but I know that some of you out there maybe suffering the dreaded blues of no MTP connection cause SystemUI or Phone.apks crash....or even GAPPs crashing for unknown reasons? Phone won't initiate drivers to the PC and you cannot put anything on your phone.

What it basically means for us 4G users is that we cannot access our SDcards what so ever, and SD mount in recovery doesn't work yet either? (Bit of a worry).

Whats worse is not having the drivers on hand for your device to enable MTP. I have drivers saved on my external SDcard now. So I just mount the external card as mass storage in Windows and then I can install the drivers if I want to.

This is all probably old news for all you standard S3 owners, but think about when you first found out about the EasyUMS and what a breese it made things for you. Yeah well thats us 4G users now (well me anyway? :D).

Oh and just so you guys know I have a nice RemICS-UX/JB Rom for the 4G phone all very tidy looking now.

XXALI9 4G

Custom toggles. Blue themed (not over the top ASOP look though) .

V6 supercharger scripting (super fast!! and very very smooth now)

It has kernel customisations (but on stock kernel) init.d scripts. Custom bootanimation capability. Teaked MMS.

Various framework modifications, framework.jar, services.jar, android-policy.jar, android.test.runner.jar

Am currently working on a slider bar for the standard Music app to fast forward and backwards rather than just skip next track or track previous?
[Galaxy S III General] Jarmezrocks:
Went out earlier a block away from my house to see if I could get a 4G signal to test. Holy smokes thats a great connection :)

I must admit, the Telstra 4G Galaxy Tab that I was using for a while (I never tested it? - I should have before I returned it) used to get strong 4G signal inside my house. And seemed a lot faster than my phone. But I never tested the tab nor tested it where I tested my phone today....to actually know if there is any difference in speed? with the tablet tethered it the net seemed faster than our ADSL2? :-S

These were taken about 1/2 km apart. Massive difference. We need a heap more 4G towers :(
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
I think we should banned 4G speed test from this thread... :D:D:D:D jealous
[Galaxy S III General] Jarmezrocks:
And I should resize my image. I never realised just how fast these things are though, and not posting here to rub it in or anything like that. I was stuck on a plan when the first S3s came out. Feeling like you guys feel as I used my S2.
[Galaxy S III General] rbimdxe:
On the verge of moving from my S2 to a 4G S3 :) Was holding off but Optus is starting to upgrade some 4G towers around Brisbane so may as well :) (as Virgin uses the Optus network ;))

So hopefully I'll be in here a fair bit more often :)
[Galaxy S III General] Jarmezrocks:
I still think my S2 is a great phone. It's only about 3 months old anyway. Some f#*&er stole my cool little S1 (along with my wallet) from my gym bag, so got the S2 through insurance. I have the ROM that I made on it, and it gets used as my wifi calling/viber phone + email + games phone at home. I could sell it, but I don't want to get rid of it. It's fast, its still very slick. So may end up making it a dev phone?

One thing though...after holding the S3 in your hands, the feel of the S2 does make it feel dated... have no idea why? Cause prior to getting the S3 I never thought that of the S2? The interface on my S2 is all S3 clone anyway. So it still seems very familiar:cool:
[Galaxy S III General] rbimdxe:
I've had the S2 since it first came out in OZ, think I got it July 2011 and back then, it felt miles ahead of the curve. However, just with time, it's started to feel dated and I'm a little bit over it. I've been playing with Jelly Bean a bit lately (CM10) on it, and it just feels like JB needs a bigger screen :).

That, plus I'm a bit of a techno-freak and whilst I'm not as crazy as some of the "sit out front of Apple stores to get the newest phone" people, I still like to get the new tech and play with it :) Much to the dismay of the missus :) haha

Just trying to figure out if the JKay mods can be transplanted onto the 9305 as he has only done them for 9300 at the moment... Really enjoy the extra functionality they bring to the S2 Samsung roms (still prefer them to CM roms, can't exactly say why though...).
[Galaxy S III General] tqgia2:
I completely agree with you jarmezrocks, I had an S1, loved it but envied my friends who had the s2. However as luck would have it, sister needed a phone and I thought it was a good reason to upgrade :P so I got the s3... and now looking at the s2, it looks and feels dated... I think it's the "square-ness" of the phone... like my S1 doesn't feel that bad when I use it
[Galaxy S III General] Jarmezrocks:
I can migrate Jkays mod to i9305. I have already done this for 4.04 ICS on S2, I just never released it cause people were freaking out about brick-bug with 4.04. It is a total ***** to do though. requires lots of work. But I see no issue in it coming to i9305.
[Galaxy S III General] Pep71:
I'm with you Kamalmawa:silly::silly:

@ Jarmezrocks yes I see wat you mean about the difference in location with a 10mbps difference.

Wait a minute about the best I get is 2600mbps............Nah I don't understand wat you mean afterall :silly::silly::silly::silly:

I WANT 4G!!!!!!

[Galaxy S III General] RaveCorp:
Sorry may be a noob question.

if I have stock rom but it has been rooted how do i load this?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] Pep71:
Dowload the zip file of the rom to your phone

Back up user apps in Titanium Backup (this will make it easier to restore your app - Not a necessity)

I like to is make sure all my contact are sync with my google account.

I also export my contacts as a backup.

I use nova launcher and it has a backup feature as well

First thing you MUST do

Make a Nandroid backup through CWM Recovery, This will give you a spot to return to in case....

Reboot into recovery (vol down + home + power)

Goto backup and restore....... Backup.

I dunno it you need to do a full wipe or not, coming from a stock rom but I would.

Still in recovery.

Wipe Data/factory reset

Wipe Cache

Wipe Dalvik-Cache

Wipe Battery Stats

Format /system (not sure if this one erases the sd card)

Still in recovery.

Install zip from sd.

Find the Rom zip and select

Voila

Now set you phone up

any news about a JB firmware for GT-I9300T? Telstra or not?
[Galaxy S III General] Jarmezrocks:
Have no idea why Telstra are draggin their chain on this one? GT-I9305 came shipped with JB firmware when I picked it up?

Were the GT-I9305s (LTE SGS3) ever released anywhere with ICS on them? Maybe that is why? Personally I think that Telcos are just plain lazy. They've got your money already, why would they want to give "extra" service of releasing an update? Plus they want you to want the newer stuff so you will come in and get a new phone (iPhone sheep have started this trend of needing to have the newest devices and I hate them for it!) and sure we all are like that here a little bit too! We all want the new toy, but a lot of us go 'Are well screw it, if I can't have that feature on a new phone....I will make my current phone have that feature' and we burry our seed of discontent for a little while longer as we loath in the envy of those we show off our cool hacks too.

Man I love rubbing photosphere in the faces of iPhone users and watching them nearly cry :victory::silly:

[Galaxy S III General] jerverg:
i agree with you both. and im just so sad that people who wouldn't root their S3's can't have a taste of JB when it's been out for quite some time now. im using the UK's firmware as of the moment. hope Telstra wakes up and realize that their bloatwares on all S3s they sell are always disabled if not uninstalled. LOL. these carriers needs to realize that they're just wasting their time developing these bloody bloatwares. i hope the Australia JB firmware arrives this month. god. we live in australia and not in the north pole!

Maybe Santa will bring it :p
[Galaxy S III General] hally8296:
Well guys ive been trawling this site over the last couple of weeks as I was finally fed up with waiting for the JB firmware for the i9300T that never seems to come. So I rooted and flashed Wanam lite 4.3 last nite, and wow its very smooth. So far battery life is really good and no probs with reception (In AROMA installer I just deselected "install modem" so kept my LH1 modem) Kept my restore from TB to a minimum as I came from Telstra's ICS 4.04 and as this is my first ROM I didnt want to screw anything up.
[Galaxy S III General] tqgia2:
Welcome to the club Hally :) exactly same reasons why I jumped from stock waiting for OTA and flashed
[Galaxy S III General] hally8296:
Thanks for the warm welcome! Yeh I was having that pesky copy and paste bug aswell as "Test Service" has stopped responding... Rang Samsung and got the "that the first time we have heard of this..." I advised them that plently of people were getting the error/bug. She advised me to Factory reset... and I thought well if Im gunna do that I may aswell go custom and get JB :victory:
[Galaxy S III General] tqgia2:
ha great bunch of help they are lol, what do you think of wanam lite, any major differences? Personally haven't used it yet, currently running slimbean and a stock dualboot... thinking of replacing the stock one with another ROM if I could find something a little more interesting to use
[Galaxy S III General] hally8296:
Yeah i really like it. Battery life is significantly improved from stock ICS. I like the AROMA installer when you install the ROM, so you can install what mods you like. You can record phone calls, 15 toggle button blue theme, kies support (if you use that lol) RAM has been optimised alot better got about 100mb more free RAM. All round smoother and snappier than stock. TBH i really like the TW feel so im loving the stock feel of this ROM. The features are listed here
[Galaxy S III General] rbimdxe:

Guys, if I'm currently using the stock unbranded Aus ICS ROM, and I flash the UK JB ROM, would I have a problem later whenever (if ever) the Aus JB comes out and I flash that over the UK one (for warranty, Kies, etc)?
[Galaxy S III General] sxi200:
I have the i9300 and had a black i9305 for a few days. Sold it because I want the grey one. I can say it almost feels like a diffderent phone. I thought the i9300 was good but the i9305 is on another level. Everything felt instant and 4g on Telstra absolutely flies. Did only one test and got 45mbps download speed.

Wow, I can't wait to try this out!

[Galaxy S III General] kais3r:
Hi guys, what would I need to do to get the JB 4.1.1 update on my S3 ?

its a european region model with: (Hungary) (XEH)

AP: i9300XXBLH1

CP: i9300XXLH1

CSC: i9300XFBLH1

Would like to get JB update, maybe a region that's compatible with Aus networks...(Telstra particularly) maybe UK ROM? and have it so that future OTA updates will work without having to do anything else?

thanks for any advice.
[Galaxy S III General] tqgia2:
You need to root your phone first - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1695238, follow that exactly

The latest stock JB from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1646610, you can pick which one you want... download that, there is also a video there that steps you through how to flash it.

you WILL NOT be able to get OTA updates if you do not have unrooted stock ROM for your region... once you flash it is so easy you won't need OTA updates
[Galaxy S III General] kais3r:
Hi, thanks for the info, Is it possible though to just update it with Jelly Bean from another region and have it unrooted?

All I really want is a better region that provides updates faster and be able to get them OTA from there on, I prefer the phone was not rooted at all.

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S III General] tqgia2:
I'm not 100% sure but to my knowledge, your phone is linked to a particular region and that's what you're stuck with in terms of OTA...

As for installing an update without rooting, it might be possible through recovery but I haven't tried... but considering no one else has done it I don't think it's possible? Wouldn't want to risk it myself in case I brick my phone...

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Bottom line is, if you want stock and unrooted, you're pretty much stuck to waiting it out
[Galaxy S III General] kais3r:
So what you're saying Is my s3 is region locked and can't be changed?

I imagined that was a firmware based thing you could alter with flashing a new ROM from another region.

Provided the rom you flash onto it with whatever method possible is an unmodified and original from Samsung, I imagined OTA would work and recognise the phone as one from the firmware that was installed...
[Galaxy S III General] braso:
You don't need to root your phone to flash new firmware. Pick the firmware of your choice at sammobile.com. Newer is usually better but any one will work fine. Flash with Odin using the instructions on the site and you will have 4.1.
[Galaxy S III General] kais3r:
Ok thanks, will OTA updates work after that's done? Even with any region I choose?

Are there any risks or issues associated?

Hello guys. Just a question. I have a I9300T model from Telstra. I already flashed the latest XXDLJ5, and I'm wondering how can i change the boot animation to show I9300 instead of I9300T? In the settings it shows I9300 but I'm getting quite neurotic of the boot animation. Please help.
[Galaxy S III General] staticN0de:
Install omega files from play store. I it has an 'all rooted roms' section. Pretty sure you can flash the boot animations contained in it. Backup your rom first as always
[Galaxy S III General] kamalmawa:
If you taking about the first boot logo where it says I9300T before the Boot animation. No you can't change it as it's a part of the bootloader. Only difference between I9300 & I9300T is the bootloader... don't even try to mess with it unless you have so many S3s lying around and you wonna use one of them as a door stopper... :rolleyes:

If this is about you wonna match what's in about phone to boot logo then use build prop editor and change ro.product.model to I9300T.

Would look cool I think at a theme park or something - a place with lots going on. Didn't remove the original samsung camera and new gallery and that worked fine too. I see lots of people love the stock android camera, but I find the samsung one so much more feature filled.

I bought my phone off Topbuy, turned out to be a french version of the phone.

Not wanting to flash back to the french version for my dad, I downloaded a Telstra stock rom off samfirmware and flashed using Odin3 v1.85.

All successful, the phone rebooted and the Telstra animation showed, next thing is a Samsung logo with a small blue background behind the logo thats glowing along with a LED blue light.

It's been stuck there for at least a good 10 mins.

Anyone know what's wrong?

Or if it takes this damn long for a start up.
