Hi,

Reflashing a ROM will only wipe any mods or add-ons you have.

All data and settings will remain intact.

:)
[HTC Sensation] mulletcutter:
If u never use it, then why r u puting it back?
[HTC Sensation] Paul22000:
I never use Voice Search (searching for things by using your voice) but I do use Voice Typing. I didn't know Voice Typing was included in the Voice Search app. I thought it was part of the keyboard.
[HTC Sensation] Sensation-al!:
Reinstall the rom without a data wipe

Sent from 3000 years in the future from my extremely outdated, but still extremely awesome HTC Sensation Z710e
[HTC Sensation] usaff22:
Did you get Voice Search from the Play Store? If so, that is the old version and not the one included in the ROM. To get Voice typing back, extract the ROM on your computer, go into /system/app, get voicesearch.apk and adb push it into your /system/app folder (on your phone). Then set permissions rw--r-r (chmod 644)

Bricked galaxy s3?

Send From My Galaxy Gio and O2x
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Trev186:
Yes....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Woolios:
Your phone is alright. Take a breath and go in Sprint and download an ROM when one is available. You just installed the wrong stuff but its an easy fix. Might take days some time for a rom to come online though
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] wildgamer100:
Just return it to sprint when they get some in stock and get a new one.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Trev186:
How do I download a ROM or do anything at all at this point if I cannot even turn the phone on?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Zanaffer:
Can you get the phone into download mode?

To do this, pull the battery out (to make sure the phone is completely off), plug it in, hold the volume-down and home buttons then turn it on while holding those buttons.

If you can get it into download mode, then it should be possible to reflash the proper firmware using Odin.

Or at least, that's how things went when I had my Samsung Vibrant. I've only owned my S3 for a day.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Trev186:
No power whatsoever.

Cannot get to download mode...

I tried removingthe power and powering on to download mode and had no luck ....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] zaventh:
Sorry, you're qhsusb_dload (aka hard) bricked. I've spent about 3 days trying to fix mine after I bricked it flashing a kernel on a bad port of cwm. If I had a working S3 and another 3 days I might be able to un-hardbrick it, but yeah, will just be exchanging it as soon as they come back in stock.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] davidstech11:
LOL, another Crook. Just because you would commit FRAUD I guess others should. That's exactly what it would be. You ruin your device hacking it, you are at fault. Not the carrier or manufacturer.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] wildgamer100:
You know damn right that if you were in his position you would take it back and get a new one.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Rev3ge07:
Exactly u would probably do the same I pay for insurance I expect them to insure my device
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Trev186:
Anyone know how I can buy a premade jig to try and frce boot odin ?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] defnow:
EBay or amazon...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] OneDeep:
Just take it to Sprint but don't tell em you was trying to download a custom rom.. Simple they probably don't know the issue yet until more people start taking they brick phones in because they tried to root..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] CoolHwip92:
I think you overpaid for your paperweight :P. Yes, I feel a little cruel for making a joke about someone who just lost $600, but you do still have a chance at exchanging it at Sprint. Bricking a phone is every custom rom users worst nightmare, but that's probably your best option. Good luck.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] mbrow124:
Same Probelm...Sort of

Yeah I did the same thing I think, tried to flash a kernel via cwm, said operation aborted...ok....so I reboot it and now it wont turn on, cant get it in download mode. Weird thing is though when i plug it in to my computer and hold down the power button, while nothing happens to my phone my computer will continuously make the connect disconnect sound like my phone is turning on for a nano second.

and if my phone is plugged in with battery out red charge light comes on, so I know something is going on in there.

any thoughts on how/if I can fix....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] MacTheRipperr:
Yeah I may be a crook. But I would take the battery out and stick the headset in the microwave for about 3 seconds. You have insurance on it. Do what you got to do. They lie, cheat, and steal every chance they get.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] zaventh:
Sorry, you're hard-bricked. As I mentioned in a previous post, your phone is in "qhsusb_dload" mode, which is a Qualcomm firmware flashing mode. If you look in your Device Manager, that's what you'll see your computer is detecting. There's absolutely nothing you can do at this point as no one outside Qualcomm/Samsung has the proper tools/files to recover from this state.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] taygutta:
I did the same thing, but I flashed the Omega rom and it hard bricked my phone 3 days ago.

I got a JIG in and it didnt work.

im taking it to Sprint tech support to try to get the data off it. FINGERS CROSSED
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] cwalker29:
Lol man you think the carrier give a flying f##k about them. I'll do the same thing bro. FRAUD LMAO who cares Mr. Honest man of the year. Lol what you doing on a android forum with a iPhone? Look just put on a cape and fly around and stop hackers from hacking their phones. Damn u funny. Most of the people making these phones use to be ex hackers anyway.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] mbrow124:
silver lining

Yep that pretty much hits the nail on the head, but some good news. So I called AT&T told them the truth... well half truth at least, I just told them that the phone doesn't turn on anymore, they did mention that this was their official release date at midnight and that I was lucky I got one earlier. Because of this I think they wouldn't have expected me to root it yet and there shipping me a new one overnight to be delivered tomorrow. They said I pay the 199 and once they get the broke phone I get my money back. so thats good I guess... unless after when they send it back to samsung to get fixed they somehow manage to find out it got rooted (even though it wont turn on) and then manage to tell AT&T who then traces it back to me... is that even possible lol, cause that would suck
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Trev186:
Sprint is shipping another one to me as well. They kept extra of the 32 GB model in stock just or this sort of thong :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] mbrow124:
Lucky us then huh, you know as long as they dont charge us for it after they get the broke phones and find out what we did :eek: but if they dont I promise ill go to church more often :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Trev186:
Money is not the issue...

Wiaitng for the stock to come in is !
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] davidstech11:
Really? I know damn right I'm not going to hack my device if I'm not willing to purchase another. I know it's hard to believe to some that some people actually take responsibility when they mess up.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] davidstech11:
Ok, IF you insurance covers you hacking it. But I'm guessing your not going to admit that. lol
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] davidstech11:
Yeah, you are. And IF they have insurance. Commit FRAUD with them. All crooks usually have excuses for why they committed a crime.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] davidstech11:
I'm not perfect at all. But I can say I'm not going to hack my device, ruin it and commit FRAUD. Don't be upset. As for my iPhone. I have multiple devices. Does it matter. I didn't know I was supposed to use my Android device when I came to the forum. lol
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] manuksayamerah:
lol, new phone got bricket. but you no need to worry about that because its juat soft brick
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] drawde40599:
Or its people like them that are part of the reason they charge 600$ for these phones, u me and everyone else is paying for it; )
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] pterry30:
Ya i hard bricked my galaxy 3 as well. i made a kernel zip for cwm and did not know samsung changed all the mounting points for the different partitions. so bascily i flashed the kernel, which has the boot image, to the wrong partition. That what replacement insurance is for. That is why i pay bestbuy $15.00 a month for the warranty.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Fuzz21:
I did the exact same thing and bricked my device. What did you say to the sales rep at your store about what happened to your device to get a replacement ??
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] CitrixLemon:
Seriously, I hate the self-entitled attitude of people who break their phones and then try to pass it off as though it was a manufacturer defect. If the OP had an insurance plan that covers accidental damage then that's fine. But I know there are a lot of people on the XDA forums who brick their phones and then go back to the store and pretend it just randomly stopped working...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] pterry30:
I bought 7 or 8 phones at bestbuy in the last year or so. Is is the first phone i have replaced and they did not ask. Just told the sales rep that I usually deal with, phone will not boot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] JB80:
A while back I saw a nice website that was nothing but really nice ios/android homepages and lockscreens.

Does anyone have any idea what it might be?

Sorry, I know it's a bit of a vague question.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xhepera:
Even a "vague" Google search for "android homescreens" would have gotten you to http://mycolorscreen.com/

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Google really *is* your friend. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] JB80:
I promise I searched. Not sure how/where I failed. But thanks

AOSP-Vanilla

This is something I've been working on for a very long time. It's a mix of the Android Open Source Project and CM9.

This would not be possible without the work of TeamChopsticks.

(I don't think many ICS's would boot w/o his Darkside scripts)

This ROM is 100% built from source. No longer using the Linaro tool chain as this was a major reason for the delay of updates. Then optimized for maximum speed (mx0 compression of framework and all PNG's optimized. The original sources were downloaded from Git and the contributors are listed above. When I say contributors I mean if your Github had an .xml that helped me figure it out you're a contributor. I'm only human please tell me if I left somebody out. I will be uploading the sources necessary to build this ROM to my Github. If it wasn't for the "open" source of others I would have never figured out how to do this. Updates will be released from my Twitter that way I can sneak 'em out when I'm working, hey I got three kids in pre-school I'll do all I can when I can.

Instructions:

Flash Darkside Super Wipe

Flash AOSP-Vanilla

Flash 20120429-gapps

Flash Darkside Cache Wipe & Fix Permissions

Reboot system

Smile

Updates will be released as I eliminate more of the CM stuff from the AOSP. It's running Eugene's CM kernel right now so I don't know how far we can go without a good kernel tutorial to be 100% AOSP. Eugene if you want this removed just say so. And remember I'd like to keep some of the cool features of CM9 but not all so please don't request that I put all the things I took out back.

I really need testers to let me know. I haven't found anything broken. But I'm sure you've read the "readme" in with a Linux kernel- please test on 4 to 5 or more people. It should be good I been running it about an hour now. I had a previous version on all day though.

Isn't this aosp vanilla just like cm9? I see no difference in this and cm9 and aokp.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] peconaut:
He said that he based this from CM9 and its slowly getting rid of things to make completely aosp. The main problem is the kernel. This is what understood

Anyway give him time and I hope he doesn't abandoned this project. Also Jellybean is around the corner :D

Did you try the darksidecachewipe.zip after you flashed the ROM?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] androidrook:
I installed following your instructions and it booted up fine. Great Rom. Very quick everything works. The only issue I'm having is I can't view internal memory of the phone. I can only view SD cards files.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Edubyah:
AOSP is the Android Open Source Project. It's the base for all Android OS. The only constant from one manufacturer to another. Samsung's bastardization is known as Touchwiz, HTC's is Sense and the Nexus line has become the only vehicle for Google to get the real Android into the public. Now this love of what Android is meant to be is what has inspired the great developers of the world to bring about Cyanogen mod, AOKP and the Nexus line from Google. Those of us who have been in on this since the G1 and Magic seem to be a little more fond of "Vanilla" flavored Android and I do ask if you can't tell the difference then this one ain't for you. Please I've put long hours into this already and many more hours still too come, this is my project and I will not apologize for being one of the few AOSP fans who owns this phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Edubyah:
The Darkside cache wipe before boot is the ticket to changing from TW to AOSP. Just follow directions and all goes well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ericqt:

That's our first issue then, and it will probably be fixed in the next update. Really was pressed for time last night and wanted to get the second build out for testing.

That's the location of internal storage. That's no bug.

Does pandora and Google music apps function properly on tis Rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Edubyah:
No theme engine, sorry but the settings and some of the framework are already gone and eventually the only remaining CM stuff will be device specific code developed by Team Chopsticks that is absolutely necessary to run AOSP.

Nothing wrong with wifi calling on AOSP. I'll look into getting it working. I think there are some devs working on an apk that's a little more forgiving. Just to be clear though for everybody I'm not against cool features. But if they're available as an application and there's no real advantage to being built in to the ROM I say let each user decide if they want that particular feature.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Edubyah:
Dude that's the best logcat I've ever viewed. Here's to hoping they're all that easy to fix.

been using this rom since last night coming from darkside v7. Its fast i notice a lil lag from the responsiveness of the touch screen, when sliding to different screen is a lil slow, a bug i discover is when im talking on the phone n i get a text n try to view it by dropping the notification bar or pressing the home button the phone freezes, (if u can add battery percent, n the option to mod the notification toggle bar the would be nice) but im guessing those would be coming out if future updates. This is an awesome rom with killer battery life thx for cooking up this rom
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sigloiv:
Yeah, it is a bug. I know it's very, very minor, but emmc is supposed to be for the external multimedia card and sdcard is supposed to be the internal flash (because the primary flash memory on Android phones used to be the sdcard and the convention never changed).

Does it make a whole lot of sense? No, not really, but some random stuff breaks because of it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] eugene373:

But my kids are at their mothers for the weekend so I will get lots done hopefully.

So I installed last night and have been using pretty heavy all day. This ROM i nice, I love AOSP and have been waiting for a good ICS release since I bought my SGII. The only problem I can see is that the battery seems to drain a tiny it faster then darkside v7 but my phone still easily made it through the day from 5am until about 11pm. Great job and I can't wait too see where it goes from here.
