[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hednik:
I've read up several threads on this an I think what I want to do is a bit unique but I am not completely sure. I rooted my phone with Odin a week ago going from official gingerbread and used the stock Kernel. Root went off without a hitch but wasn't able to get into CWM recovery so I did some searching and just now flashed to the Corn Kernel 7.05. Works Perfect !

I want to now use mobile Odin to try out a few new roms as I can upgrade my phone now but want to give this a shot to breath some new life into my nearly 2 year old cappy. Flashing the kernel with mobile odin was s snap but I guess after reading the how and developers page I am lost on what types of ROM's I use with it. I'm new to all of this so judging stages of stability if not something I am sure about. I want some I wont have to compromise much with but will broaden my horizons some. I am so new cyanogen and maybe doc's ICS mod are the only ones I really know about but I don't know if those work with Odin or if I need to use CMW.

So final questions are these:

- Mod that will be stable and I can flash using only mobile odin or CMW (not using a PC) ?

- Does creating a backup of the ROM in CMW allow me to fix a bad ROM flash ?

- Is there an ICS build for cappy that will work for my situation ?

Thanks again ! ( I promise I used the search function and even the mobile odin thread but couldn't find what I was looking for)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
1. You can basically flash almost anything that isn't stock through CWM; you don't really need mobile odin too much. There are a lot of things considered "stable" that may not be stable for you. I considered alpha CM9 "stable," but others may disagree. It is up to you to find a ROM that suits you the best.

Keep in mind, you can only use Mobile Odin on Samsung-based BML ROMs.

2. To fix a "bad" ROM flash, you'd probably just flash the ROM again. But you can use the backup to restore your phone to its exact state at time of backup (with few exceptions).

3. What exactly is your situation? No matter what, I recommend CM9 nightlies but there certainly are other things out there to try that could work for you. Everything is CWM flashable, no Odin.

Just wondering, why can't you use a computer at all? You may need one in case you screw something up down the road.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hednik:
1. Thank for clearing that up. I was using mobile odin at first because I wasn't able to boot into recovery with CWM but with the corn kernel that fixed everything and I've been getting myself more accustomed to working in there. Mobile odin seemed good for me to flash the new kernel easily and care free.

2. I was worried about a bad flash because I've read that using nandroid backups can be iffy (That's what CWM uses from what I have seen). Should I trust these backups ? I backed up everything in TiBu. I looked at the Wiki for cyanogen mod and it seems odd that the steps to flash the ROM's in CWM are very few so having few steps makes me think they have left something out or there is a step that is somehow understood I am missing)

3. I live in the boonies and my internet is even slower even though it's *cringe* 1.5 DSL haha. As far as my situation I mean something that would allow me to mess around with my phone some while knowing its stable because with 3 kids and having to have my phone I didn't want to be out of pocket for an extended period of time. I've been reading that ICS requires you to go back to stock to flash another ICS ROM but in my mind that doesn't seem too inconvenient.

I come from the desktop world and work well with hardware, not so much with software knowledge so trying to teach myself some new stuff since mobile seems to be here to stay. Making just a rudimentary app is a goal of mine even if no one cares so starting at the beginning trying to learn. Don't want to be one of those guys the noob video is made for who just begs for the way to root a phone and never contributes haha.

Thanks for your help !
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikeashford20:
Ok so I've had the S3 since yesterday and needless to say its a pretty incredible piece of kit.

However I've encountered two problems I can't get around;

1. I can't seem to get my music player onto the lock screen to easily change track, I've tried a variety of players but none seem to take over the lock screen no matter what settings are used? Anyone know a fix?

2. Whenever I use the internet on my phone using desktop mode or any internet browser, when trying to watch videos other than on Youtube I always get the "You need Flash" instead of the video, I never had this problem on my Note...

Are there any quick fixes to this? I don't want to root my device...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Isadora:
For 2) it's probably a case of you needing to go the Play Store and downloading Adobe Flash ;)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikeashford20:
Haha

I would have thought by the fact i'd posted here it would have been assumed Id already downloaded Flash :P.

I have Adobe Flash Player 11 with the fix for ICS, however playing videos I could on my Note just isn't happening on the S3 and i'm not sure why!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m33ts4k0z:
If there are videos with commercials, it can be that the popup blocker of the browser blocks them.

It happened to me too just because the website I tried, needed to have the commercials downloaded first before it could start the playback.

Are you using the same browser on both phones?

About the first problem it works ok for me so i really dont know. (stock music player)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n70shan:
the above two problems are not major!! i will tell you a major problem and that is an auto focus issue while recording video looses its focus and moves too and fro awkwardly video help help!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muke88:
I have the same problem as number 1: The stock music player on the galaxy s3 does not appear to have any control on the lockscreen. It's strange because on my Galaxy S it works perfectly.. Anybody have ideas on how to resolve the issue, without going to 3rd party apps/widgets?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niko123456:
It's annoying but at least you can pull down the notification bar and get it there.

Also the headphones do volume but not tracks... F'n annoying.

I find the music player a bit ****, wish I had access to Google Play Music from 4.0.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fosforix:
The only way is pull down the notification bar
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aquariuzism:
In order for you to play the videos using the browser, you need to switch back to android mode(phone mode), the flash player, especially the adobe one, do not support desktop mode.

To sort it, you need a flash player that supports desktop mode which i don't know if there is already existing app like that. :p
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muke88:
So, there is no way to get it working properly, only notification bar? That's weak..

Btw. I have also problems with flash. Youtube works fine but sometimes it just keeps loading and doesn't play ( from the internet browser). What's the deal with all these issues, I thought SG3 will be flawless..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkphantom:
I wanted to follow up on this, I find the music player extremely annoying. The headphones not changing track I can live with for the time being.

Any solution on how to access the on screen music player besides the notification bar from the lock screen?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dcaplinger76:
Hello, I was on an ics rom and wanted to flash a different, so I mobile odined the el26 kernel which I thought it was the cwm one.... I guess not and now the only thing I can do is get to stock recovery and all that let's me do is apply an update. Is there anything I can put on the sd card ofu other phone and then swap that the recovery will let me flash? I know I can just odin when I get home but trying to do this from work. Thanks

There is one kernel with CWM and one without it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MeWarning:
You'll have to wait until you get home. You have a GB kernel with an ICS ROM and that's why it won't boot all the way. And since you can't turn the phone all the way on Mobile Odin is out of the question. There really is no way to fix it without your computer.

This. You're going to have to use odin on a computer.

I'm running RR 2.0 and last remembered only needing to change the ro.product.model=GT-I1900 and adding a capital M in order to get the MobileTV app to work when I was back on CheckRom v6.

However, it doesn't seem to be working out so I wanted to make sure I have the original to adjust instead if possible, thanks.

Looks like I managed to take an older build.prop and use that instead. Case closed.

Can I ask why you were trying to downgrade? Were you trying to get root access?

Be careful when using update.zips. Not all will work depending on what you currently have installed. Which is why you got the error.
